Tony just told McGee that one of Gibbs' rules is no eating in the truck. Then when Tim tossed his burger in the garbage Tony said that maybe he was mistaken and that Gibbs' rule was actually 'no eating in autopsy.'

4. Never say you're sorry.
I just watched "Yankee White" and rule #4 was mentioned. But I also know this rule is mentioned liberally throughout every season.

I'm watching the episode called, "Blowback" and Jennie begins telling Gibbs some of his rules at about the 15:30 mark.
