1
00:00:38,212 --> 00:00:40,083
Dr. Laura.

2
00:00:46,785 --> 00:00:48,178
Hmm?

3
00:01:50,197 --> 00:01:52,112
Tahir!

4
00:02:31,977 --> 00:02:34,023
Caught the bad guy hours ago.

5
00:02:35,024 --> 00:02:36,330
Hi.

6
00:02:36,373 --> 00:02:39,594
Usually, we go home after that.

7
00:02:40,943 --> 00:02:44,164
Well, my office has
a nicer couch, so...

8
00:02:44,207 --> 00:02:45,861
I thought I'd have
a post-bad guy drink.

9
00:02:45,904 --> 00:02:48,777
Would you care to join me?

10
00:02:48,820 --> 00:02:50,735
I'll take that as a yes.

11
00:02:50,779 --> 00:02:53,260
Costa Rica.

12
00:02:54,261 --> 00:02:55,436
Again.

13
00:02:58,265 --> 00:03:00,267
I wasn't kidding the other day.

14
00:03:01,311 --> 00:03:02,530
Mm-hmm.

15
00:03:02,573 --> 00:03:03,922
I'm serious.

16
00:03:03,966 --> 00:03:05,359
I need a change.

17
00:03:05,402 --> 00:03:08,188
I'm ready for sun and sand

18
00:03:08,231 --> 00:03:12,757
and not facing a new murder
every single day.

19
00:03:14,237 --> 00:03:18,459
I actually found a place
near the beach.

20
00:03:19,982 --> 00:03:22,158
Putting in an offer.

21
00:03:29,687 --> 00:03:31,646
Hello. Is anyone home?

22
00:03:33,474 --> 00:03:35,606
Good.
You're still here.

23
00:03:35,650 --> 00:03:37,608
Jack, the Bahrain office
needs you in MTAC.

24
00:03:37,652 --> 00:03:40,307
Gibbs, you might as well
come along.

25
00:03:42,178 --> 00:03:43,919
A school bus carrying

26
00:03:43,962 --> 00:03:46,095
four ten-year-old girls
and their chaperone

27
00:03:46,138 --> 00:03:47,966
was hijacked
in Helmand Province yesterday.

28
00:03:48,010 --> 00:03:49,620
Bus driver was shot to death.

29
00:03:49,664 --> 00:03:51,622
The rest presumed kidnapped.

30
00:03:51,666 --> 00:03:53,972
-Taliban.
Most likely.

31
00:03:54,016 --> 00:03:56,105
They're not big fansof girls going to school.

32
00:03:56,148 --> 00:03:58,760
Which is why the bus routes
are usually kept secret.

33
00:03:58,803 --> 00:04:01,284
Somehow, the Taliban found out
about this one.

34
00:04:01,328 --> 00:04:02,459
They staged an ambush.

35
00:04:02,503 --> 00:04:04,766
So, what does this
have to do with me?

36
00:04:04,809 --> 00:04:06,507
We believe this was written

37
00:04:06,550 --> 00:04:08,944
by the girls' chaperone
before they were all taken.

38
00:04:15,559 --> 00:04:16,604
Who's the chaperone?

39
00:04:16,647 --> 00:04:18,736
It's Darya, Jack.

40
00:04:22,392 --> 00:04:23,872
Somebody want to fill me in
on this?

41
00:04:23,915 --> 00:04:27,876
When I was a hostage, uh,
in Afghanistan,

42
00:04:27,919 --> 00:04:30,879
Darya was another captive.

43
00:04:30,922 --> 00:04:33,403
A local who they usedas a servant.

44
00:04:33,447 --> 00:04:35,187
She brought mefood, water.

45
00:04:35,231 --> 00:04:37,015
I wouldn't have made it
without her.

46
00:04:37,059 --> 00:04:38,669
-When we pulled Jack out,

47
00:04:38,713 --> 00:04:41,324
Darya stayed behind
to fight the fight.

48
00:04:41,368 --> 00:04:42,978
All right,
we've been told that she began

49
00:04:43,021 --> 00:04:45,067
working with a local
nongovernmental organization,

50
00:04:45,110 --> 00:04:47,896
an aid group helping villages
threatened by the Taliban.

51
00:04:47,939 --> 00:04:49,985
Is the NGO looking for her?

52
00:04:50,028 --> 00:04:51,726
For what it's worth,
I'm not sure

53
00:04:51,769 --> 00:04:54,076
there's much anyone can do,
but...

54
00:04:54,119 --> 00:04:56,296
we just thought
you should at least know.

55
00:04:56,339 --> 00:04:57,601
Thank you.

56
00:05:00,256 --> 00:05:02,911
And there sure as hell is
plenty we can do.

57
00:05:02,954 --> 00:05:04,826
Leon, I know it's not
our jurisdiction...

58
00:05:04,869 --> 00:05:06,218
Jack, slow down.

59
00:05:06,262 --> 00:05:07,568
No, I'm not going to slow down.

60
00:05:07,611 --> 00:05:09,396
When Masahun tortured me,
it was Darya

61
00:05:09,439 --> 00:05:10,832
who nursed me back to health.

62
00:05:10,875 --> 00:05:12,616
I'm not just gonna stand by...

63
00:05:12,660 --> 00:05:14,139
Jack, I already arranged
for transport.

64
00:05:14,183 --> 00:05:15,706
Oh, okay.

65
00:05:15,750 --> 00:05:17,012
You're damn right
we're not gonna stand by.

66
00:05:17,055 --> 00:05:18,013
I was there, too.

67
00:05:18,056 --> 00:05:19,319
You got us jurisdiction.

68
00:05:19,362 --> 00:05:20,581
SECNAV just approved it.

69
00:05:20,624 --> 00:05:21,930
Plane leaves in two hours.

70
00:05:21,973 --> 00:05:23,540
You two gotyour second COVID shots?

71
00:05:23,584 --> 00:05:24,628
Got it.
Yes.

72
00:05:24,672 --> 00:05:26,543
All right. Stay safe.

73
00:05:39,121 --> 00:05:40,992
So, Gibbs didn't
say anything else?

74
00:05:41,036 --> 00:05:42,820
No,
"You got point."

75
00:05:42,864 --> 00:05:44,344
That's better than

76
00:05:44,387 --> 00:05:45,736
"Make sure Torres
feeds Carl."

77
00:05:45,780 --> 00:05:47,085
Who is Carl?

78
00:05:47,129 --> 00:05:49,566
Carl is a fish.

79
00:05:49,610 --> 00:05:52,003
Sloane dropped him off
at my place last night.

80
00:05:52,047 --> 00:05:53,309
What's going on?

81
00:05:53,353 --> 00:05:54,745
Gibbs called about midnight.

82
00:05:54,789 --> 00:05:56,399
He said he didn't want
to wake you.

83
00:05:56,443 --> 00:05:58,488
So... of course, I thought
he was having a stroke.

84
00:05:58,532 --> 00:06:00,316
Or he was being thoughtful.

85
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:01,796
McGee does have two kids.

86
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:03,188
You hear yourself?

87
00:06:04,189 --> 00:06:05,277
"Thoughtful."

88
00:06:05,321 --> 00:06:07,018
Skip to the end.
Why do I have point?

89
00:06:07,062 --> 00:06:09,325
Because Gibbs and Sloane
are heading to Afghanistan.

90
00:06:09,369 --> 00:06:11,893
They're tracking down a
school bus of missing girls.

91
00:06:11,936 --> 00:06:13,460
We believe it
was the Taliban.

92
00:06:13,503 --> 00:06:15,636
-Oh, that's rough.
-Anything we can do to help?

93
00:06:15,679 --> 00:06:18,290
Yes. The NSA picked up
an e-mail containing

94
00:06:18,334 --> 00:06:21,206
the exact coordinates
of where this bus was ambushed.

95
00:06:21,250 --> 00:06:22,469
Taliban was tipped off.

96
00:06:22,512 --> 00:06:24,340
NSA able to track the recipient?

97
00:06:24,384 --> 00:06:26,124
No, but we got
the sender.

98
00:06:26,168 --> 00:06:28,605
And I'm sure he knows where
he sent his e-mail to.

99
00:06:28,649 --> 00:06:31,042
Name's Albert Gorsch-- lives
about an hour outside of D.C.

100
00:06:31,086 --> 00:06:33,349
So, an American sent
the girls' location

101
00:06:33,393 --> 00:06:35,003
to the Taliban? Why?

102
00:06:35,046 --> 00:06:36,265
Pick him up and find out?

103
00:06:36,308 --> 00:06:37,658
Be our pleasure.

104
00:06:42,402 --> 00:06:44,316
What's on your mind?

105
00:06:46,449 --> 00:06:48,408
Sloane gave Carl to Torres?

106
00:06:48,451 --> 00:06:50,845
She could be gone for a while.
Someone's got to feed him.

107
00:06:50,888 --> 00:06:53,021
Except she's got
an automatic fish feeder.

108
00:06:53,064 --> 00:06:55,066
I helped her put it in.

109
00:06:57,460 --> 00:07:00,420
Exactly how dangerous
is this situation?

110
00:07:09,124 --> 00:07:10,908
We will be at the
village in two hours.

111
00:07:10,952 --> 00:07:12,736
Oh, no, take us
to the bus first, please.

112
00:07:12,780 --> 00:07:14,825
No, no, no. Bad idea.

113
00:07:14,869 --> 00:07:16,871
We do not want to be
on the road at night.

114
00:07:16,914 --> 00:07:18,525
Taliban.

115
00:07:18,568 --> 00:07:20,962
The bus-- first.

116
00:07:21,005 --> 00:07:22,746
The longer we wait,
the harder it'll be

117
00:07:22,790 --> 00:07:24,269
to find those missing girls.

118
00:07:26,794 --> 00:07:28,839
Don't look at me.

119
00:07:29,884 --> 00:07:33,235
Wow. That's the most you've said
in the last 12 hours.

120
00:07:33,278 --> 00:07:35,629
Don't worry.
I know what you're doing.

121
00:07:35,672 --> 00:07:37,587
What am I doing?

122
00:07:37,631 --> 00:07:40,024
You think that
if you don't push me

123
00:07:40,068 --> 00:07:42,940
I'll realize on my own
that Costa Rica's a mistake

124
00:07:42,984 --> 00:07:44,202
and I'll change my mind.

125
00:07:44,246 --> 00:07:45,334
That what I think?

126
00:07:45,377 --> 00:07:47,771
Yep.

127
00:07:47,815 --> 00:07:50,557
I wasn't the only one
not saying much on that plane.

128
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,123
What were you thinking?

129
00:07:52,167 --> 00:07:53,951
I was thinking about Darya.

130
00:07:55,170 --> 00:07:56,911
You know, she was a teacher

131
00:07:56,954 --> 00:07:58,869
before the Taliban
kidnapped her.

132
00:07:58,913 --> 00:08:01,219
What'd she do after?

133
00:08:01,263 --> 00:08:03,221
Uh, I don't know anything

134
00:08:03,265 --> 00:08:06,311
except for what
that agent told us.

135
00:08:06,355 --> 00:08:10,620
I mean, she used to patch me up

136
00:08:10,664 --> 00:08:13,493
after Masahun would torture me.

137
00:08:13,536 --> 00:08:15,625
I'm sure she meant well,

138
00:08:15,669 --> 00:08:18,976
but they'd torture me
all over again, so...

139
00:08:20,195 --> 00:08:21,936
We tried to
keep in touch.

140
00:08:21,979 --> 00:08:24,373
E-mail and such,
but it got too hard.

141
00:08:25,505 --> 00:08:28,159
You okay being back here again?

142
00:08:28,203 --> 00:08:30,814
Thanks. I'm okay.

143
00:08:30,858 --> 00:08:33,817
I made peace with this place.

144
00:08:33,861 --> 00:08:35,863
That being said, I wouldn't mind

145
00:08:35,906 --> 00:08:39,214
getting the hell out of here
as fast as possible.

146
00:08:45,437 --> 00:08:47,657
What does a fish
actually do?

147
00:08:47,701 --> 00:08:49,790
You can't pet it, right?
You can't play fetch.

148
00:08:49,833 --> 00:08:51,661
Okay, can we stop
talking about the fish?

149
00:08:51,705 --> 00:08:53,054
Oh, not a fan?

150
00:08:53,097 --> 00:08:54,664
Not since my mom
flushed my goldfish

151
00:08:54,708 --> 00:08:56,361
down the toilet
when I was six.

152
00:08:56,405 --> 00:08:58,668
Oh, so Goldie was
your first dead body.

153
00:08:58,712 --> 00:09:01,628
No. Wait, how did
you know her name?

154
00:09:01,671 --> 00:09:04,544
Because all six-year-olds name
their first goldfish Goldie.

155
00:09:04,587 --> 00:09:07,198
Wait, you smell that?

156
00:09:07,242 --> 00:09:09,766
Uh, speaking of dead bodies...

157
00:09:20,255 --> 00:09:22,562
Well, somebody
beat us here.

158
00:09:24,781 --> 00:09:27,305
Are we sure this is
the right guy?

159
00:09:27,349 --> 00:09:29,438
I mean, look at
these posters.

160
00:09:29,481 --> 00:09:32,136
"Save the Amazon."
"The ocean."

161
00:09:32,180 --> 00:09:34,704
Doesn't exactly strike me
as someone who'd be

162
00:09:34,748 --> 00:09:36,227
working with the Taliban.

163
00:09:36,271 --> 00:09:38,142
I don't know. You tell me.

164
00:09:38,186 --> 00:09:39,753
Does this look familiar?

165
00:09:39,796 --> 00:09:41,493
Yeah. I think those are

166
00:09:41,537 --> 00:09:43,539
the GPS coordinates
of the bus route.

167
00:09:43,583 --> 00:09:45,497
Then we got the right guy.

168
00:10:01,165 --> 00:10:02,689
Agents Gibbs, Sloane.

169
00:10:02,732 --> 00:10:04,255
Yes.

170
00:10:04,299 --> 00:10:05,735
I'm Nabi.

171
00:10:05,779 --> 00:10:08,042
-You with the NGO?
-Moroor Amen. Yes.

172
00:10:08,085 --> 00:10:12,002
Uh, I helped run the local camp
with your friend Darya.

173
00:10:12,046 --> 00:10:14,657
As you can see,
all that's left behind is

174
00:10:14,701 --> 00:10:17,312
the children's shoes
and, uh, backpacks.

175
00:10:17,355 --> 00:10:18,966
And, of course...

176
00:10:23,579 --> 00:10:25,712
Darya knew that
the government

177
00:10:25,755 --> 00:10:27,539
would not have
the resources to help.

178
00:10:27,583 --> 00:10:31,326
The, uh, the NGO, Moroor Amen?

179
00:10:31,369 --> 00:10:33,807
That's Arabic for
"safe passage."

180
00:10:33,850 --> 00:10:35,417
Is that what you do?

181
00:10:35,460 --> 00:10:37,680
Arrange safe passage for girls
who want to go to school?

182
00:10:37,724 --> 00:10:40,727
As well as food, clothing,
COVID vaccinations.

183
00:10:40,770 --> 00:10:42,250
But it is difficult.

184
00:10:42,293 --> 00:10:44,818
The villages are under
constant threat by the Taliban.

185
00:10:44,861 --> 00:10:46,428
Yeah, got that.

186
00:10:46,471 --> 00:10:47,821
Our bus routes are kept secret.

187
00:10:47,864 --> 00:10:49,257
I cannot imagine
who leaked this one.

188
00:10:49,300 --> 00:10:51,868
We might have an idea.
Our team

189
00:10:51,912 --> 00:10:54,001
in D.C. sent us
this photo an hour ago.

190
00:10:54,044 --> 00:10:55,393
You know him?

191
00:10:55,437 --> 00:10:57,439
Yes. Albert. Um...

192
00:10:57,482 --> 00:11:00,094
he helped design Moroor
Amen's internal network.

193
00:11:01,312 --> 00:11:03,880
Are you saying that Albert
hacked into our system

194
00:11:03,924 --> 00:11:05,708
and leaked this
bus's route?

195
00:11:05,752 --> 00:11:06,840
Why?

196
00:11:06,883 --> 00:11:09,407
Can't ask him. He's dead.

197
00:11:10,757 --> 00:11:13,020
Then we shall never know
who has taken the girls.

198
00:11:13,063 --> 00:11:14,412
Well, maybe not,

199
00:11:14,456 --> 00:11:16,371
but we know which way they went.

200
00:11:16,414 --> 00:11:17,546
How?

201
00:11:17,589 --> 00:11:20,636
-Seen this before.
-The Taliban

202
00:11:20,680 --> 00:11:22,507
had them take off
their shoes for a reason.

203
00:11:22,551 --> 00:11:24,684
Makes it harder for them
to get away.

204
00:11:24,727 --> 00:11:26,773
But only if they were headed...

205
00:11:26,816 --> 00:11:28,992
into rough terrain.

206
00:11:29,036 --> 00:11:31,081
Mountains are this way.
That's where we'll start.

207
00:11:31,125 --> 00:11:32,343
Not tonight.

208
00:11:32,387 --> 00:11:33,997
The Taliban soldiers
like to shoot

209
00:11:34,041 --> 00:11:35,651
at passing vehicles at night
for sport.

210
00:11:35,695 --> 00:11:37,131
We should go
to the village.

211
00:11:37,174 --> 00:11:40,003
No, with all due respect,
we should stop wasting time.

212
00:11:40,047 --> 00:11:41,439
Listen to him, Jack.

213
00:11:41,483 --> 00:11:43,050
He's right.

214
00:11:43,093 --> 00:11:47,054
Gibbs, you know every second
those girls are missing...

215
00:11:47,097 --> 00:11:48,751
We can't help them if we're
dead on the side of the road.

216
00:11:48,795 --> 00:11:50,579
We go to the village.
We call Vance.

217
00:11:50,622 --> 00:11:53,060
We get backup.

218
00:11:53,103 --> 00:11:54,975
Take it from there, right?

219
00:12:04,636 --> 00:12:06,116
Jimmy, what do you got?

220
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,423
Kidney failure.
I mean, we-we don't

221
00:12:08,466 --> 00:12:09,685
have kidney failure.

222
00:12:09,729 --> 00:12:11,426
This guy's kidneys,
though, are...

223
00:12:11,469 --> 00:12:13,602
Well, kidney failure
didn't bash in this guy's door.

224
00:12:13,645 --> 00:12:15,082
That would be impressive.

225
00:12:15,125 --> 00:12:16,605
So, was this a murder or...?

226
00:12:16,648 --> 00:12:19,434
He appears to have died
from prerenal kidney failure.

227
00:12:19,477 --> 00:12:21,436
His medical records
show no history

228
00:12:21,479 --> 00:12:23,612
of any kidney
problems, so...

229
00:12:23,655 --> 00:12:24,656
Which means?

230
00:12:24,700 --> 00:12:26,789
It's weird.

231
00:12:26,833 --> 00:12:28,443
That's your official report?

232
00:12:28,486 --> 00:12:31,446
That is all I have until Kasie
gets back with blood results.

233
00:12:31,489 --> 00:12:33,274
I mean, if this was a murder,

234
00:12:33,317 --> 00:12:34,579
we don't even know
what the motive was.

235
00:12:34,623 --> 00:12:36,059
It's got to be one of
the four Ls, right?

236
00:12:36,103 --> 00:12:37,974
Like lust, love, loathing, loot.

237
00:12:38,018 --> 00:12:39,454
And still no clue
who he e-mailed

238
00:12:39,497 --> 00:12:40,934
the kidnapped girls'
bus route to.

239
00:12:40,977 --> 00:12:43,501
Didn't you get, like,
a mountain of his computers?

240
00:12:43,545 --> 00:12:45,025
Can't you just trace his e-mail?

241
00:12:45,068 --> 00:12:47,288
We would, if I could get
into the computers.

242
00:12:47,331 --> 00:12:49,116
I've never seen this kind
of encryption before.

243
00:12:49,159 --> 00:12:50,552
Which means?

244
00:12:50,595 --> 00:12:51,945
It's weird.

245
00:13:13,705 --> 00:13:14,837
These people have nothing.

246
00:13:14,881 --> 00:13:17,187
And to lose their kids, too...

247
00:13:18,623 --> 00:13:20,625
Moroor Amen
operates out of here.

248
00:13:20,669 --> 00:13:22,845
You can contact
your director inside.

249
00:13:22,889 --> 00:13:24,107
What's the perimeter?

250
00:13:24,151 --> 00:13:25,848
Uh, what?

251
00:13:25,892 --> 00:13:27,850
Security. What do you got?

252
00:13:27,894 --> 00:13:29,852
A few men patrol
with rifles.

253
00:13:29,896 --> 00:13:32,724
We have some old land mines
from an abandoned military post.

254
00:13:32,768 --> 00:13:34,552
We keep it in a shed.

255
00:13:34,596 --> 00:13:37,642
Well, I guess the shed's safe.

256
00:13:41,908 --> 00:13:43,953
-Sitrep.
We got a lead on the girls.

257
00:13:43,997 --> 00:13:46,347
Need satellite access
for recon later.

258
00:13:46,390 --> 00:13:48,871
And troops to back us up
if we find something.

259
00:13:48,915 --> 00:13:50,177
I'll do what I can.

260
00:13:50,220 --> 00:13:52,396
But with reduced U.S. presence
in-country,

261
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:53,963
I'll need to call in
a few favors.

262
00:13:54,007 --> 00:13:56,661
-Well, start calling, please.
In the meantime,

263
00:13:56,705 --> 00:13:58,489
Trip wire perimeter

264
00:13:58,533 --> 00:14:00,622
on the road
leading into town.

265
00:14:00,665 --> 00:14:02,276
Used some old blasting caps.

266
00:14:02,319 --> 00:14:04,887
I voted for the entire
land mine, but whatever.

267
00:14:04,931 --> 00:14:07,890
Jack, you sure you're okay?

268
00:14:07,934 --> 00:14:10,980
I'm fine, Leon.
I just wish everyone would stop

269
00:14:11,024 --> 00:14:12,373
expecting me to fall apart

270
00:14:12,416 --> 00:14:13,591
and let me do my...

271
00:14:13,635 --> 00:14:15,158
Lights! I got the door.

272
00:14:15,202 --> 00:14:16,812
Window.

273
00:14:27,954 --> 00:14:29,042
I got something.

274
00:14:29,085 --> 00:14:31,435
It's Tahir! Tahir!

275
00:14:31,479 --> 00:14:33,394
Stand down, Jack.

276
00:14:34,743 --> 00:14:36,527
Come on.

277
00:14:41,184 --> 00:14:42,533
This is Yazmin,

278
00:14:42,577 --> 00:14:43,970
one of the missing girls.

279
00:14:44,013 --> 00:14:46,189
Hey, Yazmin.

280
00:14:46,233 --> 00:14:48,061
It's okay, angel.
It's okay.

281
00:14:49,758 --> 00:14:51,064
Drink, angel.

282
00:14:51,107 --> 00:14:53,240
You're safe now.

283
00:14:53,283 --> 00:14:54,937
And you're a very brave girl

284
00:14:54,981 --> 00:14:57,200
-for getting away from those men.
-No.

285
00:14:57,244 --> 00:15:01,074
I-I not get away.

286
00:15:05,643 --> 00:15:07,558
They let me go.

287
00:15:07,602 --> 00:15:09,647
They let you go?

288
00:15:29,667 --> 00:15:30,625
Yazmin!

289
00:15:30,668 --> 00:15:31,931
Mama!

290
00:15:42,289 --> 00:15:43,986
I don't get it.
Why'd they let her go?

291
00:15:44,030 --> 00:15:47,076
They could be testing
the perimeter.

292
00:15:48,338 --> 00:15:50,645
Or using her as
a distraction.

293
00:15:50,688 --> 00:15:52,212
She found her way here.

294
00:15:52,255 --> 00:15:54,866
Which means she might know
where the other girls are.

295
00:15:56,477 --> 00:15:59,001
You have a map? Thanks.

296
00:15:59,045 --> 00:16:00,481
Translate for me, please?

297
00:16:00,524 --> 00:16:02,048
-Yes.
-Thank you.

298
00:16:02,091 --> 00:16:04,006
Hey, Yazmin.

299
00:16:04,050 --> 00:16:06,878
-I'm Jack. I'm a friend.
Yazmin.

300
00:16:09,229 --> 00:16:10,970
This is a map.

301
00:16:11,013 --> 00:16:12,710
This is where we are.

302
00:16:12,754 --> 00:16:14,886
Do you know where
those men took you?

303
00:16:19,674 --> 00:16:21,197
It's okay. It's okay.

304
00:16:23,460 --> 00:16:25,332
Acute stress disorder,

305
00:16:25,375 --> 00:16:28,335
possible dissociative amnesia,
would be my guess.

306
00:16:28,378 --> 00:16:29,771
Needs rest.

307
00:16:29,814 --> 00:16:31,991
I can't imagine
what they might've done to her.

308
00:16:34,036 --> 00:16:36,647
Actually, I-I can.

309
00:16:36,691 --> 00:16:39,607
Listen, I can't wait until dawn
to get back out there, Gibbs.

310
00:16:39,650 --> 00:16:41,087
We got to be smart.

311
00:16:41,130 --> 00:16:42,566
Agent Gibbs, Agent Sloane.

312
00:16:42,610 --> 00:16:44,481
-Quickly.
-What is it?

313
00:16:44,525 --> 00:16:46,353
This just appeared online.

314
00:16:51,706 --> 00:16:53,490
They wear those dresses
to school?

315
00:16:53,534 --> 00:16:54,578
No.

316
00:17:01,281 --> 00:17:03,848
Gibbs, that's Darya.
She's alive.

317
00:17:04,849 --> 00:17:06,242
Wait,
what's she reading?

318
00:17:06,286 --> 00:17:07,939
A bank account number.

319
00:17:07,983 --> 00:17:09,506
It's an auction.

320
00:17:12,814 --> 00:17:14,511
The girls are for sale?

321
00:17:14,555 --> 00:17:16,687
Now I know why
they let Yazmin go.

322
00:17:16,731 --> 00:17:18,080
Why?

323
00:17:18,124 --> 00:17:20,126
She has epilepsy.

324
00:17:21,257 --> 00:17:23,868
Many hold outdated superstitions
about it.

325
00:17:23,912 --> 00:17:26,001
Some even consider it
a curse.

326
00:17:26,045 --> 00:17:29,265
They did not think
she was even worth selling.

327
00:17:32,921 --> 00:17:34,575
Those aren't traditional
bank account numbers.

328
00:17:34,618 --> 00:17:36,838
They're for
a cryptocurrency wallet.

329
00:17:36,881 --> 00:17:38,666
That means
we can't trace the owner.

330
00:17:38,709 --> 00:17:40,059
Can we block the bank account?

331
00:17:40,102 --> 00:17:41,016
Buy Vance some time

332
00:17:41,060 --> 00:17:42,278
to get Gibbs that backup.

333
00:17:42,322 --> 00:17:43,584
Backup for what?
I mean, we still don't know

334
00:17:43,627 --> 00:17:44,672
where the girls are being held.

335
00:17:44,715 --> 00:17:45,890
I'm working on it.

336
00:17:45,934 --> 00:17:47,066
Come on, McGee.
Even my grandma

337
00:17:47,109 --> 00:17:48,241
would've figured
it out by now.

338
00:17:48,284 --> 00:17:50,243
Who did Albert send
that e-mail to?

339
00:17:50,286 --> 00:17:53,768
Yeah? Your grandmother can crack
512-bit custom-built encryption?

340
00:17:53,811 --> 00:17:55,944
If she can't, I know who might.

341
00:17:55,987 --> 00:17:58,555
Turns out Albo had a
business partner, a guy named

342
00:17:58,599 --> 00:18:02,081
Ben Mitchell. They ran some
animal nonprofit together.

343
00:18:03,430 --> 00:18:04,822
Ben was the IT guy?

344
00:18:04,866 --> 00:18:07,477
Until he ended up in jail
for hacking.

345
00:18:07,521 --> 00:18:08,957
We should talk to this guy.

346
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:10,654
-Which jail?
-He's out now.

347
00:18:10,698 --> 00:18:12,700
Runs a pet store.
I'll send you the address.

348
00:18:12,743 --> 00:18:14,180
Oh, maybe he can help us
with Carl.

349
00:18:14,223 --> 00:18:16,660
You know, he-he's barely moving
inside his little bowl.

350
00:18:16,704 --> 00:18:17,922
I think he's depressed.

351
00:18:19,228 --> 00:18:21,143
Eh, he looks fine.

352
00:18:21,187 --> 00:18:22,275
Oh, easy for you to say.

353
00:18:22,318 --> 00:18:24,190
If Sloane comes back
to a dead Carl,

354
00:18:24,233 --> 00:18:26,279
I'm next.

355
00:18:30,021 --> 00:18:31,719
Look, the nonprofit
was just a cover.

356
00:18:31,762 --> 00:18:33,590
Officially, if you saw
an animal being abused,

357
00:18:33,634 --> 00:18:35,114
you could use our
app to report them.

358
00:18:35,157 --> 00:18:36,550
Unofficially, we'd
hack the living crap

359
00:18:36,593 --> 00:18:38,073
out of whoever was
doing the abuse.

360
00:18:38,117 --> 00:18:39,814
Felt nice, but...

361
00:18:39,857 --> 00:18:41,207
I ended up
doing some time.

362
00:18:41,250 --> 00:18:42,817
Turns out I am not a fan.

363
00:18:42,860 --> 00:18:45,080
And when I got out,
I went legit.

364
00:18:45,124 --> 00:18:46,603
What about Albert?

365
00:18:50,041 --> 00:18:52,000
Look, you're not gonna
get the guy in trouble.

366
00:18:52,043 --> 00:18:53,262
He's dead.

367
00:18:53,306 --> 00:18:55,177
You want to help us
figure out why?

368
00:18:55,221 --> 00:18:57,136
And help us
find some missing girls?

369
00:19:05,535 --> 00:19:06,884
While I was locked up,

370
00:19:06,928 --> 00:19:09,539
Albie jumped from animals
to fighting corruption.

371
00:19:09,583 --> 00:19:11,672
Started going by the name
Albatross. At least,

372
00:19:11,715 --> 00:19:13,195
that's what his
-groupies called him.
-Wait, wait.

373
00:19:13,239 --> 00:19:16,067
You-You're saying that
Albert Gorsch was the Albatross?

374
00:19:16,111 --> 00:19:19,506
-Who's that?
-He's, like, the most famous
hacktivist of all time.

375
00:19:19,549 --> 00:19:21,856
No wonder I can't get
into this guy's system.

376
00:19:21,899 --> 00:19:24,032
Oh, and you're excited
because that explains

377
00:19:24,075 --> 00:19:25,338
-why you're failing?
-Hey.

378
00:19:25,381 --> 00:19:27,296
The NSA's been after this guy
for years, okay?

379
00:19:27,340 --> 00:19:30,299
For hacki, uh... visiting?

380
00:19:30,343 --> 00:19:32,345
Look, a hacktivist is a hacker

381
00:19:32,388 --> 00:19:34,825
who uses his skills
for the purposes of good.

382
00:19:34,869 --> 00:19:36,218
Yeah. In Albie's case,

383
00:19:36,262 --> 00:19:38,046
he started helping
government whistleblowers.

384
00:19:38,089 --> 00:19:39,482
And pissed off a lot of people.

385
00:19:39,526 --> 00:19:41,049
Yeah. Thing I don't get,
though, is

386
00:19:41,092 --> 00:19:43,356
hacktivists live by a code,

387
00:19:43,399 --> 00:19:45,532
and that definitely doesn't
include child abduction.

388
00:19:45,575 --> 00:19:47,969
He'd been getting
more and more extreme lately.

389
00:19:48,012 --> 00:19:49,318
9/11 truther,

390
00:19:49,362 --> 00:19:50,406
COVID truther.

391
00:19:50,450 --> 00:19:51,929
I'm kind of not shocked to hear

392
00:19:51,973 --> 00:19:53,670
he hooked up
with some really bad apples.

393
00:19:53,714 --> 00:19:55,194
So, you're gonna help us
get into his system?

394
00:19:55,237 --> 00:19:56,673
Find those girls?

395
00:19:56,717 --> 00:19:59,067
Yeah. Of course I'll help.

396
00:20:00,286 --> 00:20:02,288
You're not gonna believe
who our dead guy is.

397
00:20:02,331 --> 00:20:03,854
Didn't we ID
this guy already?

398
00:20:03,898 --> 00:20:04,855
He's the Albatross.

399
00:20:04,899 --> 00:20:06,509
-No!
-Yeah.

400
00:20:06,553 --> 00:20:08,207
I'm just kidding.
I don't know who that is.

401
00:20:08,250 --> 00:20:10,165
He's the most famous hacktivist
of all time.

402
00:20:10,209 --> 00:20:13,342
Oh! Yeah, sorry.
No, I still don't know.

403
00:20:13,386 --> 00:20:15,692
But don't hacktivists,
like, live by a code

404
00:20:15,736 --> 00:20:18,086
that does not involve
child abduction?

405
00:20:18,129 --> 00:20:19,696
Yeah, well,
Albatross's ex-partner

406
00:20:19,740 --> 00:20:21,350
says that he changed his tune.

407
00:20:21,394 --> 00:20:23,744
Does this ex-partner happen
to have the encryption keys

408
00:20:23,787 --> 00:20:26,921
-to Albatross's server,by any chance?
-He did.

409
00:20:26,964 --> 00:20:30,054
Oh! Well, that makes
my news super anticlimactic.

410
00:20:30,098 --> 00:20:32,056
All I did was ID
the cause of death

411
00:20:32,100 --> 00:20:35,538
for our newly turned evil
hacktivist, and it's not pretty.

412
00:20:35,582 --> 00:20:38,237
-He was killed by ketchup?
-What was in the ketchup.

413
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,282
-Someone spiked itwith acetic acid.
-Hmm.

414
00:20:40,326 --> 00:20:41,805
That's what caused
the kidney failure.

415
00:20:41,849 --> 00:20:43,546
Nice work. Did you, uh...

416
00:20:43,590 --> 00:20:45,069
Check for prints,
already find two sets,

417
00:20:45,113 --> 00:20:47,507
and have already ID'd one
as belonging to our victim?

418
00:20:47,550 --> 00:20:49,378
-Mm-hmm.
-How about the other set?

419
00:20:49,422 --> 00:20:50,684
Ooh, I was just about
to run them

420
00:20:50,727 --> 00:20:52,381
and catch a murderer, but...

421
00:20:52,425 --> 00:20:54,340
I bet I can ID
this second set of prints

422
00:20:54,383 --> 00:20:55,732
before you can hack

423
00:20:55,776 --> 00:20:57,734
-into that server.
-You're on.

424
00:20:57,778 --> 00:20:58,996
Okay.

425
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:00,520
-Ready?
-Mm-hmm.

426
00:21:00,563 --> 00:21:02,086
On "three."Uh-huh.

427
00:21:02,130 --> 00:21:03,958
-Three.
-What?

428
00:21:09,398 --> 00:21:10,399
In.

429
00:21:10,443 --> 00:21:11,444
Already?

430
00:21:11,487 --> 00:21:13,315
Yeah. Just need to execute

431
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,883
the encryption override.

432
00:21:21,845 --> 00:21:24,195
You've been a bad, bad boy.

433
00:21:24,239 --> 00:21:26,110
Uh-oh.

434
00:21:26,154 --> 00:21:28,374
You've been a bad, bad boy.

435
00:21:28,417 --> 00:21:30,332
Uh-oh.

436
00:21:30,376 --> 00:21:31,768
You've been a bad, bad boy.

437
00:21:31,812 --> 00:21:33,814
I think I might have triggered

438
00:21:33,857 --> 00:21:36,425
some kind of
security protocol here.

439
00:21:43,693 --> 00:21:46,827
Special Agent McGee.

440
00:21:46,870 --> 00:21:50,047
Really? Uh, all over? Okay.

441
00:21:50,091 --> 00:21:51,962
Yeah, I'll, uh,
I'll be right up.

442
00:21:52,006 --> 00:21:54,661
Um, the whole network is down.

443
00:21:54,704 --> 00:21:57,316
"Whole" as in ...e entire building.

444
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,362
Yeah, so I'm gonna go fix that,
um, before Gibbs flies back

445
00:22:00,406 --> 00:22:02,233
from Afghanistan
and kills me himself.

446
00:22:04,279 --> 00:22:06,150
Oh, he dead.

447
00:22:08,152 --> 00:22:10,024
You're doing great.

448
00:22:13,201 --> 00:22:16,160
So, the girls were walked
for a half hour.

449
00:22:16,204 --> 00:22:17,814
Then they were put
on a truck and, uh,

450
00:22:17,858 --> 00:22:20,077
driven another
hour to a house.

451
00:22:20,121 --> 00:22:21,601
That's a pretty wide radius.

452
00:22:21,644 --> 00:22:23,342
She doesn't remember
how she got home.

453
00:22:23,385 --> 00:22:25,996
-I'm still working on it.
-Yeah.

454
00:22:29,043 --> 00:22:30,653
Hey, Leon,

455
00:22:30,697 --> 00:22:32,133
where's that satellite recon?

456
00:22:32,176 --> 00:22:33,482
Waiting on an answer, Gibbs,

457
00:22:33,526 --> 00:22:36,180
but I got a hard no
on any troop support.

458
00:22:36,224 --> 00:22:37,921
We still got three girls
out there.

459
00:22:37,965 --> 00:22:39,923
I know. But the rules
of engagement

460
00:22:39,967 --> 00:22:41,272
the Pentagon agreed to forbid...

461
00:22:41,316 --> 00:22:44,493
Rules?
This is the Taliban, Leon.

462
00:22:44,537 --> 00:22:46,147
They don't have rules.

463
00:22:46,190 --> 00:22:48,192
If you and Sloane
try to mount a rescue,

464
00:22:48,236 --> 00:22:51,370
you will be on your own, which
is I why I expressly forbid...

465
00:22:51,413 --> 00:22:52,806
Expressly what?

466
00:22:52,849 --> 00:22:54,155
You're breaking up, Leon.

467
00:22:54,198 --> 00:22:56,070
No, Gibbs,
I most certainly am not.

468
00:22:56,113 --> 00:22:57,941
Can't hear you.

469
00:22:57,985 --> 00:22:59,639
I want you and Sloane...

470
00:23:02,468 --> 00:23:03,991
You got a location?

471
00:23:04,034 --> 00:23:05,253
Yazmin just told us something.

472
00:23:05,296 --> 00:23:06,994
Well, what'd she say?

473
00:23:07,037 --> 00:23:08,561
That halfway to school,
Darya told the bus driver

474
00:23:08,604 --> 00:23:10,127
to take a new route.

475
00:23:10,171 --> 00:23:11,868
Well, they change routes
all the time.

476
00:23:11,912 --> 00:23:13,435
-You read the NGO report.
-Yes.

477
00:23:13,479 --> 00:23:14,871
But look at it again.

478
00:23:14,915 --> 00:23:16,612
The route Darya had
the driver take

479
00:23:16,656 --> 00:23:18,309
was never on the network.

480
00:23:18,353 --> 00:23:20,007
So how did
Albatross get it?

481
00:23:23,010 --> 00:23:24,577
Can't hack something
that's not there.

482
00:23:24,620 --> 00:23:26,405
Darya was
the only person who knew

483
00:23:26,448 --> 00:23:28,058
where that school bus would be.

484
00:23:28,102 --> 00:23:31,235
Which means the only way
the hacker knew it as well...

485
00:23:31,279 --> 00:23:32,672
Is if she told him.

486
00:23:46,468 --> 00:23:47,774
Tracks end here.

487
00:23:47,817 --> 00:23:49,123
Yeah.

488
00:23:51,081 --> 00:23:52,518
Truck must have picked them up.

489
00:23:52,561 --> 00:23:54,520
So which way
did they go?

490
00:23:54,563 --> 00:23:56,652
I can't tell
if that fork

491
00:23:56,696 --> 00:23:59,394
is a dead end or
crosses a river.

492
00:24:07,141 --> 00:24:09,709
She didn't do it, Gibbs.

493
00:24:09,752 --> 00:24:11,362
Darya.

494
00:24:13,364 --> 00:24:16,933
She would never have
leaked that bus route.

495
00:24:16,977 --> 00:24:18,631
She risked everything
to help me.

496
00:24:18,674 --> 00:24:20,633
She would never sell out
her own people.

497
00:24:20,676 --> 00:24:22,983
I know her.

498
00:24:23,026 --> 00:24:24,550
I got something, Jack.

499
00:24:25,768 --> 00:24:26,943
Wait...

500
00:24:26,987 --> 00:24:29,380
That's Darya's.

501
00:24:29,424 --> 00:24:32,558
She-she had it when
we were held-held captive.

502
00:24:32,601 --> 00:24:36,344
She must have left it for me,
s-- to-to show me the way.

503
00:24:36,387 --> 00:24:38,259
Maybe.

504
00:24:38,302 --> 00:24:40,043
Maybe what?

505
00:24:41,958 --> 00:24:43,656
Just wondering
what kind of prisoner

506
00:24:43,699 --> 00:24:45,962
gets to keep their jewelry.

507
00:24:46,006 --> 00:24:47,703
So, w-what? You think it's a...

508
00:24:47,747 --> 00:24:49,966
i-it's a trick
to send us the wrong way?

509
00:24:50,010 --> 00:24:51,577
It's the oldest
play in the book.

510
00:24:51,620 --> 00:24:53,230
Got a captive that doesn't talk,

511
00:24:53,274 --> 00:24:55,929
stick in a buddy in there,
soften them up.

512
00:24:58,671 --> 00:25:01,369
Masahun did it to Vance
with that fake CIA agent.

513
00:25:01,412 --> 00:25:04,851
Jack, this whole thing
may be one big trap.

514
00:25:04,894 --> 00:25:07,244
Your name on the bus.

515
00:25:07,288 --> 00:25:08,419
Masahun...

516
00:25:08,463 --> 00:25:10,030
still got family in the area.

517
00:25:10,073 --> 00:25:12,206
I-I got to tell you,

518
00:25:12,249 --> 00:25:14,600
Costa Rica's looking better
by the second.

519
00:25:14,643 --> 00:25:19,082
Your friend dropped the necklace
going that way, Jack.

520
00:25:19,126 --> 00:25:21,041
Which way are we going?

521
00:25:27,787 --> 00:25:29,092
<i>Damn, Tim, I don't get it.</i>

522
00:25:29,136 --> 00:25:30,267
<i>You're supposed to be
the computer guy.</i>

523
00:25:30,311 --> 00:25:31,747
How did this guy out-hack you?

524
00:25:31,791 --> 00:25:33,096
You know what? This guy
was, like, one of the best

525
00:25:33,140 --> 00:25:34,881
ten hackers in the world, okay?

526
00:25:34,924 --> 00:25:36,447
You think you got problems?

527
00:25:36,491 --> 00:25:39,712
Try checking murder ketchup
fingerprints by hand.

528
00:25:39,755 --> 00:25:41,409
I'm like Amish Columbo
down there.

529
00:25:41,452 --> 00:25:43,280
All right, that should
isolate every computer

530
00:25:43,324 --> 00:25:45,326
that came in contact
with Albatross's virus.

531
00:25:46,588 --> 00:25:47,937
Oh...
Ah.

532
00:25:47,981 --> 00:25:50,592
-McGee in the building.
-Nice.

533
00:25:52,725 --> 00:25:53,769
What's going on?

534
00:25:58,078 --> 00:26:00,297
Those are not
flattering pictures.

535
00:26:00,341 --> 00:26:01,864
Why is this happening? Wh...

536
00:26:01,908 --> 00:26:03,692
I isolated
Albatross's server.

537
00:26:03,736 --> 00:26:05,520
Seriously, why is this
still happening?

538
00:26:05,564 --> 00:26:07,348
Because the attack isn't coming
from Albatross's server.

539
00:26:07,391 --> 00:26:10,699
It's coming from outside
the building. Here, take a look.

540
00:26:10,743 --> 00:26:13,049
When McGee broke into
Albatross's system,

541
00:26:13,093 --> 00:26:14,616
he didn't just trigger a virus.

542
00:26:14,660 --> 00:26:16,313
I triggered a warning beacon.

543
00:26:16,357 --> 00:26:18,533
-To who?
-All of Albatross's
hacker groupies.

544
00:26:18,577 --> 00:26:21,580
Mm-hmm. It was letting them
know his system was compromised.

545
00:26:21,623 --> 00:26:23,103
Looks like one of them
went on the offensive.

546
00:26:23,146 --> 00:26:25,018
And see?

547
00:26:25,061 --> 00:26:27,629
Y'all made fun of me
for keeping my webcam unplugged.

548
00:26:27,673 --> 00:26:29,544
We got to find them
and stop them.

549
00:26:29,588 --> 00:26:30,937
That is not gonna be easy.

550
00:26:30,980 --> 00:26:33,069
These people are pros
at staying hidden.

551
00:26:33,113 --> 00:26:34,418
Then we make them come to us.

552
00:26:34,462 --> 00:26:36,246
How? Stand outside
with a hard drive

553
00:26:36,290 --> 00:26:37,987
going, "Here, hacker, hacker?"

554
00:26:38,031 --> 00:26:39,293
No, but Albatross
and his buddies

555
00:26:39,336 --> 00:26:42,731
are into helping, uh,
whistleblowers, right?

556
00:26:42,775 --> 00:26:44,428
Well, we dangle one
in front of them as bait.

557
00:26:44,472 --> 00:26:46,343
Yeah, but who? I mean, all
of our pictures are plastered

558
00:26:46,387 --> 00:26:49,390
on the Internet with a "do not
trust" sign stamped across them.

559
00:26:49,433 --> 00:26:52,001
You guys, you guys, I don't want
to be alarmist here,

560
00:26:52,045 --> 00:26:53,568
but my coolers
just went out,

561
00:26:53,612 --> 00:26:56,440
and we are gonna be
in a world of hurt if y-you...

562
00:26:58,399 --> 00:26:59,530
What?

563
00:27:02,621 --> 00:27:04,231
Jimmy, my man,

564
00:27:04,274 --> 00:27:05,667
you got to calm down.

565
00:27:05,711 --> 00:27:06,929
Literally the least
calming thing

566
00:27:06,973 --> 00:27:08,539
you could say
to a person.

567
00:27:08,583 --> 00:27:10,672
Okay, maybe we should
go over this again.

568
00:27:10,716 --> 00:27:13,675
You're a janitor who wants
to expose an NCIS cover-up.

569
00:27:13,719 --> 00:27:15,808
Right. And I piggybacked

570
00:27:15,851 --> 00:27:17,766
onto Albatross's
beacon to make contact.

571
00:27:17,810 --> 00:27:20,029
Now I have a USB drive
with the dirt.

572
00:27:20,073 --> 00:27:21,857
Put the USB drive down.

573
00:27:21,901 --> 00:27:24,773
Yeah-- Sorry.
I'm really nervous, okay?

574
00:27:24,817 --> 00:27:27,036
And somehow simultaneously
extremely bored.

575
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,865
This is really what you guys do
on stakeouts?

576
00:27:29,909 --> 00:27:32,302
Terrible for circulation.

577
00:27:32,346 --> 00:27:34,174
Not to mention
I'm really hungry.

578
00:27:34,217 --> 00:27:36,350
You know, maybe
this was a bad idea.

579
00:27:36,393 --> 00:27:37,568
If our guy makes Jimmy,

580
00:27:37,612 --> 00:27:39,005
we're not gonna get
a second chance here.

581
00:27:39,048 --> 00:27:40,789
And not for nothing, but I think

582
00:27:40,833 --> 00:27:43,139
I have eyes on our hacktivist.

583
00:27:43,183 --> 00:27:44,706
Check out the mom
pushing the stroller.

584
00:27:44,750 --> 00:27:47,404
No way. Who brings a
baby to an intel drop?

585
00:27:47,448 --> 00:27:49,842
Who walks a baby
without a diaper bag?

586
00:27:49,885 --> 00:27:53,062
Plus, that mom hasn't looked
down in her stroller once.

587
00:27:53,106 --> 00:27:54,890
-So?
-So if you were pushing around

588
00:27:54,934 --> 00:27:56,849
the cutest living organism
on Planet Earth,

589
00:27:56,892 --> 00:27:59,765
wouldn't you stare at it
every chance you got?

590
00:27:59,808 --> 00:28:01,505
Mm-hmm. Like Baby Yoda.

591
00:28:01,549 --> 00:28:03,246
Now you're getting it.

592
00:28:03,290 --> 00:28:04,247
Move in, Bishop.

593
00:28:04,291 --> 00:28:05,422
Yep. I got it.

594
00:28:05,466 --> 00:28:06,728
Hey. NCIS.

595
00:28:06,772 --> 00:28:07,773
Hey.

596
00:28:07,816 --> 00:28:09,339
NCIS!

597
00:28:10,297 --> 00:28:11,864
Freeze!

598
00:28:11,907 --> 00:28:13,126
Do I-- do I...?

599
00:28:19,132 --> 00:28:21,264
You're welcome.

600
00:28:21,308 --> 00:28:22,918
So...

601
00:28:22,962 --> 00:28:24,441
you got hacked, huh?

602
00:28:24,485 --> 00:28:26,182
What's that got
to do with me?

603
00:28:26,226 --> 00:28:28,271
I think we both know
the answer to that.

604
00:28:28,315 --> 00:28:29,620
Good luck proving it.

605
00:28:29,664 --> 00:28:32,188
I'm trying to solve
your friend's murder.

606
00:28:32,232 --> 00:28:35,844
Should I find it suspicious
that you don't want to help?

607
00:28:37,150 --> 00:28:38,586
His murder.

608
00:28:40,327 --> 00:28:41,850
Right. Sure.

609
00:28:43,243 --> 00:28:45,941
Was this before or after he
collaborated with the Taliban?

610
00:28:45,985 --> 00:28:47,073
After.

611
00:28:50,685 --> 00:28:52,121
You guys got to get
better game.

612
00:28:52,165 --> 00:28:53,688
I don't know
what you got on Albatross,

613
00:28:53,732 --> 00:28:56,517
but no way was he collaborating
with terrorists.

614
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,649
He's one of the good guys.

615
00:28:58,693 --> 00:29:00,782
-And we are?
-The Man.

616
00:29:00,826 --> 00:29:02,088
Deep state.

617
00:29:02,131 --> 00:29:04,264
And I'm not buying
what you're selling.

618
00:29:04,307 --> 00:29:06,353
Far as I'm concerned,
there was

619
00:29:06,396 --> 00:29:08,355
no murder, no kidnapping

620
00:29:08,398 --> 00:29:11,140
and Albatross is sitting
in some black site with...

621
00:29:11,184 --> 00:29:12,533
Three little girls.

622
00:29:12,576 --> 00:29:16,450
Three little girls
being auctioned off like cattle.

623
00:29:17,930 --> 00:29:19,801
Here's your buddy.

624
00:29:19,845 --> 00:29:21,585
This one we can
go see in person

625
00:29:21,629 --> 00:29:23,762
if you want to take a
quick little field trip.

626
00:29:23,805 --> 00:29:26,765
I don't really give a rat's ass
who killed that guy.

627
00:29:26,808 --> 00:29:28,679
Because he sold
those little girls out

628
00:29:28,723 --> 00:29:30,072
on their way
to school.

629
00:29:30,116 --> 00:29:32,379
And those girls are out there,
scared and hurt,

630
00:29:32,422 --> 00:29:35,251
and the only way to find them
is by tracing an e-mail locked

631
00:29:35,295 --> 00:29:36,557
inside of Albatross' system.

632
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,646
Which we can't access
because of your virus.

633
00:29:40,300 --> 00:29:42,737
You said you're one
of the good guys. Prove it.

634
00:29:45,522 --> 00:29:46,697
Okay.

635
00:29:46,741 --> 00:29:48,612
I'll show you
how to unlock your system.

636
00:29:48,656 --> 00:29:50,658
But one thing--
you said

637
00:29:50,701 --> 00:29:52,486
that the NSA flagged his e-mail?

638
00:29:52,529 --> 00:29:53,530
Yeah, that's right.

639
00:29:53,574 --> 00:29:55,358
That I don't believe.

640
00:29:55,402 --> 00:29:57,143
He's been evading them
for years.

641
00:29:58,361 --> 00:30:00,668
He's being set up.

642
00:30:10,504 --> 00:30:12,071
Yeah.

643
00:30:12,114 --> 00:30:14,769
No. We're losing the light,
so we headed back.

644
00:30:14,813 --> 00:30:16,249
Thanks for
the heads-up, McGee.

645
00:30:16,292 --> 00:30:17,816
They track
that e-mail yet?

646
00:30:17,859 --> 00:30:19,948
Uh, no. But, uh,

647
00:30:19,992 --> 00:30:23,256
McGee was able to block
the kidnappers' bank account.

648
00:30:23,299 --> 00:30:25,084
Bought us some time
before they're sold.

649
00:30:25,127 --> 00:30:27,086
-Yeah.
Agent Gibbs!
Agent Sloane!

650
00:30:29,044 --> 00:30:30,524
Wait,
something's wrong, Gibbs.

651
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:35,007
Oh, my God.

652
00:30:35,050 --> 00:30:36,182
Oh, my God!

653
00:30:39,185 --> 00:30:40,751
Oh, my God.
Darya.

654
00:30:40,795 --> 00:30:43,711
They-they threw her
from a truck.

655
00:30:43,754 --> 00:30:45,278
-They didn'teven slow down.
-Darya.

656
00:30:45,321 --> 00:30:46,932
Did you recognize anyone?

657
00:30:46,975 --> 00:30:50,283
No. But this was
pinned to her coat.

658
00:30:57,986 --> 00:31:01,381
"Go home
or there will be more blood."

659
00:31:03,687 --> 00:31:05,037
It's in English.

660
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:06,603
It's to us.

661
00:31:06,647 --> 00:31:08,518
So much for this
being a trap.

662
00:31:08,562 --> 00:31:10,259
She wasn't in on it, Gibbs!

663
00:31:10,303 --> 00:31:11,565
Where you going?

664
00:31:11,608 --> 00:31:12,566
I'm done.

665
00:31:12,609 --> 00:31:14,220
What do you mean you're done?!

666
00:31:14,263 --> 00:31:17,353
This is why I want out.

667
00:31:17,397 --> 00:31:18,789
This.

668
00:31:18,833 --> 00:31:20,530
We chase bad guys.

669
00:31:20,574 --> 00:31:22,010
We put them away.

670
00:31:22,054 --> 00:31:23,751
And nothing ever changes.

671
00:31:23,794 --> 00:31:25,100
Except for us.

672
00:31:25,144 --> 00:31:28,974
Darya risked her
life to help me,

673
00:31:29,017 --> 00:31:31,237
and-and we're all so twisted

674
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,849
we couldn't see that basic act
of humanity for what it was.

675
00:31:36,503 --> 00:31:38,113
So call it what you want.

676
00:31:38,157 --> 00:31:40,159
Quitting. Running. I don't care.

677
00:31:40,202 --> 00:31:41,987
I'm out.

678
00:31:42,030 --> 00:31:43,466
I'm done!

679
00:32:23,071 --> 00:32:26,509
Might as well go out
in a blaze of glory, right?

680
00:32:28,076 --> 00:32:29,773
A local thought
he recognized

681
00:32:29,817 --> 00:32:31,688
the truck
that dumped Darya's body.

682
00:32:31,732 --> 00:32:33,995
Said it came from that village.

683
00:32:34,039 --> 00:32:36,041
I thought I'd do a little recon.

684
00:32:36,084 --> 00:32:38,739
Alone? By yourself?

685
00:32:40,349 --> 00:32:42,525
Are you wanting
to get yourself killed?

686
00:32:45,485 --> 00:32:47,139
Seriously?

687
00:32:48,270 --> 00:32:51,099
Why is it
when Leroy Jethro Gibbs

688
00:32:51,143 --> 00:32:53,623
wants to charge in
with guns blazing,

689
00:32:53,667 --> 00:32:55,364
it's heroic,

690
00:32:55,408 --> 00:32:57,671
but when I want to do it,
I have a death wish?

691
00:32:57,714 --> 00:32:59,020
I don't talk like I want to die.

692
00:32:59,064 --> 00:33:00,065
So pick one!

693
00:33:00,108 --> 00:33:01,153
You can't have it
both ways, Gibbs.

694
00:33:01,196 --> 00:33:02,328
What am I picking?

695
00:33:02,371 --> 00:33:03,851
You can't tell me
I'm a fighter

696
00:33:03,894 --> 00:33:05,809
and that fighters never quit,

697
00:33:05,853 --> 00:33:08,725
and then try to ground me
when you don't like my plan.

698
00:33:08,769 --> 00:33:10,640
I can if I want you
to be around.

699
00:33:10,684 --> 00:33:12,164
At NCIS or on the planet?

700
00:33:12,207 --> 00:33:14,079
Both!

701
00:33:16,907 --> 00:33:19,345
Jack, every truck out
there looks the same.

702
00:33:19,388 --> 00:33:21,825
You go charging
into the wrong village

703
00:33:21,869 --> 00:33:23,175
with your ass all on fire,

704
00:33:23,218 --> 00:33:25,786
we will never see
these girls again.

705
00:33:27,744 --> 00:33:29,485
Do you have a better idea?

706
00:33:29,529 --> 00:33:31,052
We call Vance.

707
00:33:31,096 --> 00:33:33,054
We see where
he is on the satellite recon.

708
00:33:33,098 --> 00:33:35,970
If he's nowhere,
then we go check out

709
00:33:36,014 --> 00:33:37,450
the village
-ourselves.
-Fine.

710
00:33:37,493 --> 00:33:38,886
But...

711
00:33:38,929 --> 00:33:41,149
we do that together.

712
00:33:43,499 --> 00:33:44,979
We need to hurry.

713
00:33:45,023 --> 00:33:46,285
I just spoke
to Vance.

714
00:33:46,328 --> 00:33:48,069
He just spoke
to Gibbs and Sloane.

715
00:33:48,113 --> 00:33:49,549
-What's up?
-Well, it sounds like

716
00:33:49,592 --> 00:33:51,377
they're about
to do something very...

717
00:33:51,420 --> 00:33:52,987
Gibbsian and Sloansian.

718
00:33:53,031 --> 00:33:54,815
Okay. So what can we do?

719
00:33:54,858 --> 00:33:56,643
Get intel on whatever
they're about to walk into.

720
00:33:56,686 --> 00:33:58,775
All right.
Albatross's laptop.

721
00:33:58,819 --> 00:34:00,429
Did you find out
who he sent that bus route to?

722
00:34:00,473 --> 00:34:03,432
I didn't have any better luck
tracing his e-mail than the NSA.

723
00:34:03,476 --> 00:34:05,826
That's assuming he was really
the one who sent the e-mail.

724
00:34:05,869 --> 00:34:08,785
Well, Baby Yoda's mom

725
00:34:08,829 --> 00:34:11,005
seems to think that
Albatross was being set up.

726
00:34:11,049 --> 00:34:13,138
Setup or not,
someone kidnapped those girls.

727
00:34:13,181 --> 00:34:15,140
What about focusing
on the murder case?

728
00:34:15,183 --> 00:34:16,532
Shake something
loose.

729
00:34:16,576 --> 00:34:19,144
We still don't have motive,
let alone a solid lead.

730
00:34:19,187 --> 00:34:21,276
Did someone order solid?

731
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,452
'Cause I have got
some solid gold.

732
00:34:23,496 --> 00:34:26,194
My computers are back up--
thank you, Secret Agent Palmer.

733
00:34:26,238 --> 00:34:27,848
And I managed
to ID the prints

734
00:34:27,891 --> 00:34:29,154
on the murder ketchup.

735
00:34:29,197 --> 00:34:30,198
And?

736
00:34:30,242 --> 00:34:32,635
And our murderer is...

737
00:34:32,679 --> 00:34:35,595
You're about as good
at getting away with murder

738
00:34:35,638 --> 00:34:37,031
as you were
at hacking.

739
00:34:37,075 --> 00:34:38,685
And we know
where hacking got you.

740
00:34:38,728 --> 00:34:41,383
I try to help you guys
and this is the thanks I get?

741
00:34:41,427 --> 00:34:43,342
Yeah, this is why
people hate you.

742
00:34:43,385 --> 00:34:45,866
Nobody hates me.
Does anyone hate you, Nick?

743
00:34:45,909 --> 00:34:47,911
Oh, well, I mean,

744
00:34:47,955 --> 00:34:49,174
I did go undercover
for, like, ten years,

745
00:34:49,217 --> 00:34:50,218
so yeah, maybe.

746
00:34:50,262 --> 00:34:51,219
Okay, this isn't funny.

747
00:34:51,263 --> 00:34:52,612
No. You're right.

748
00:34:52,655 --> 00:34:54,570
Nothing about this
is funny, actually.

749
00:34:57,921 --> 00:34:59,619
Your prints on
the murder weapon...

750
00:34:59,662 --> 00:35:00,620
Not funny.

751
00:35:00,663 --> 00:35:01,882
The bottle of poison

752
00:35:01,925 --> 00:35:03,536
that we found in your trash...

753
00:35:03,579 --> 00:35:04,798
Not funny.

754
00:35:06,104 --> 00:35:07,409
You're done.

755
00:35:07,453 --> 00:35:09,933
We know that you killed
your ex-partner.

756
00:35:09,977 --> 00:35:11,500
And the jury's gonna
know it, too.

757
00:35:11,544 --> 00:35:12,806
We just want to know why.

758
00:35:12,849 --> 00:35:14,329
Because he was a sellout.

759
00:35:15,504 --> 00:35:17,071
You know, he was supposed
to be our hero.

760
00:35:17,115 --> 00:35:18,507
Fighting the good fight

761
00:35:18,551 --> 00:35:20,727
when things got a little too hot
for the rest of us.

762
00:35:20,770 --> 00:35:22,076
You were right.

763
00:35:23,121 --> 00:35:24,687
Hacktivists live
by a code,

764
00:35:24,731 --> 00:35:27,560
and it does not include selling
information to terrorists.

765
00:35:27,603 --> 00:35:29,344
Albie started working
for the mob,

766
00:35:29,388 --> 00:35:31,390
dealers,

767
00:35:31,433 --> 00:35:33,174
anyone who would pay.

768
00:35:33,218 --> 00:35:34,393
So you killed him.

769
00:35:34,436 --> 00:35:36,351
No, I--
It was an accident, okay?

770
00:35:36,395 --> 00:35:38,179
That-that was just supposed
to send him to the hospital,

771
00:35:38,223 --> 00:35:39,615
give me time
to access his system

772
00:35:39,659 --> 00:35:41,095
while I unhashed
that e-mail he sent.

773
00:35:41,139 --> 00:35:42,140
What?

774
00:35:43,053 --> 00:35:44,707
You're the one
that set him up.

775
00:35:44,751 --> 00:35:46,318
You unhashed
that encryption

776
00:35:46,361 --> 00:35:47,971
so that NSA
would flag his e-mail.

777
00:35:48,015 --> 00:35:52,193
I... I wanted people
to see what he'd become.

778
00:35:52,237 --> 00:35:54,195
I-I didn't want
to kill anybody.

779
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,066
I mean, who eats
that much ketchup in a week?

780
00:35:56,110 --> 00:35:57,807
And what about the girls?

781
00:35:57,851 --> 00:35:59,940
Did you even think about them?

782
00:35:59,983 --> 00:36:01,376
I got his e-mail flagged!

783
00:36:01,420 --> 00:36:02,638
It's not my fault you idiots
couldn't track the thing

784
00:36:02,682 --> 00:36:04,074
-to the other side.
-Hey.

785
00:36:04,118 --> 00:36:06,207
You want to help us,
tell us everything you know

786
00:36:06,251 --> 00:36:07,339
about the kidnappers.

787
00:36:07,382 --> 00:36:09,689
I don't know anything you don't.

788
00:36:09,732 --> 00:36:13,345
Except maybe who gave Albie that
bus route in the first place.

789
00:36:13,388 --> 00:36:14,694
That we know.

790
00:36:14,737 --> 00:36:17,044
It was Darya,
the woman in charge of the NGO.

791
00:36:17,087 --> 00:36:18,872
Who?

792
00:36:18,915 --> 00:36:20,395
No, it wasn't a woman.

793
00:36:21,353 --> 00:36:23,006
Then who was it?

794
00:36:30,405 --> 00:36:32,233
Agent Gibbs, any news?

795
00:36:32,277 --> 00:36:33,713
Beat it.

796
00:36:36,498 --> 00:36:37,630
Is there a problem?

797
00:36:37,673 --> 00:36:39,414
-Where are the girls?
-Excuse me?

798
00:36:39,458 --> 00:36:41,373
Darya isn't the one
who sold them out.

799
00:36:41,416 --> 00:36:42,548
You are.
She changed

800
00:36:42,591 --> 00:36:43,940
the bus route
at the last minute.

801
00:36:43,984 --> 00:36:45,115
Didn't tell anyone...

802
00:36:45,159 --> 00:36:46,247
...except you.

803
00:36:46,291 --> 00:36:48,336
And then

804
00:36:48,380 --> 00:36:50,251
you told him.

805
00:36:53,123 --> 00:36:54,734
This is absurd.

806
00:36:54,777 --> 00:36:57,258
I'm gonna ask you one more time
where the girls are.

807
00:36:57,302 --> 00:36:58,781
And then I'm gonna leave you
alone with her.

808
00:37:01,306 --> 00:37:03,264
You are an American
federal agent.

809
00:37:03,308 --> 00:37:05,092
You won't hurt me.

810
00:37:05,135 --> 00:37:06,876
Me?

811
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:09,270
I'm going to Costa Rica, baby.

812
00:37:09,314 --> 00:37:11,794
And you killed my friend.

813
00:37:11,838 --> 00:37:14,667
Darya was like a cancer!

814
00:37:16,190 --> 00:37:20,107
Moroor Amen was only supposed
to supply food and shelter.

815
00:37:20,150 --> 00:37:23,632
Darya wanted to destroy
our entire way of life.

816
00:37:23,676 --> 00:37:27,941
She wanted these girls
to learn English. Math.

817
00:37:27,984 --> 00:37:30,117
It was not right.

818
00:37:31,161 --> 00:37:33,773
You sold those girls
into slavery

819
00:37:33,816 --> 00:37:35,209
so they couldn't learn math?

820
00:37:38,995 --> 00:37:40,910
That was not
supposed to happen.

821
00:37:40,954 --> 00:37:42,347
They were supposed
to be married off

822
00:37:42,390 --> 00:37:44,087
to good husbands, not sold.

823
00:37:45,306 --> 00:37:47,787
But it is a holy war.
It is what it is.

824
00:37:50,006 --> 00:37:51,965
Wait. Where are you going?

825
00:37:52,008 --> 00:37:53,575
She can take it from here.

826
00:37:53,619 --> 00:37:55,708
She is a crazy woman!
She will kill me!

827
00:38:00,974 --> 00:38:03,063
It is what it is.

828
00:38:03,106 --> 00:38:04,543
What? No!

829
00:38:04,586 --> 00:38:08,024
Unless you tell us where
those girls are being held.

830
00:38:13,595 --> 00:38:15,249
Hey!

831
00:38:27,043 --> 00:38:28,218
Building secure!

832
00:38:40,274 --> 00:38:42,320
It's okay.

833
00:38:56,856 --> 00:38:58,466
Hey.

834
00:38:58,510 --> 00:39:00,033
Come on.

835
00:39:08,433 --> 00:39:10,435
Okay, that feels good.

836
00:39:10,478 --> 00:39:12,219
Yeah.

837
00:39:19,269 --> 00:39:21,402
Sir. Ma'am.

838
00:39:21,446 --> 00:39:22,925
Since the CO had to, uh,

839
00:39:22,969 --> 00:39:25,580
creatively interpret a few
rules to okay this mission,

840
00:39:25,624 --> 00:39:27,060
we need to return
to base ASAP.

841
00:39:27,103 --> 00:39:29,584
Please thank your CO for us.
And thank you.

842
00:39:31,151 --> 00:39:32,718
That's all
the thanks I need.

843
00:39:32,761 --> 00:39:35,721
Besides, when the director
of NCIS makes a direct call...

844
00:39:35,764 --> 00:39:38,288
Can always count
on a Marine.
Oorah.

845
00:39:38,332 --> 00:39:40,508
Can we give you two
a lift back to base?

846
00:39:41,814 --> 00:39:44,120
Uh... gonna
need a minute.

847
00:39:48,951 --> 00:39:50,518
So?

848
00:39:51,519 --> 00:39:52,825
Jack?

849
00:39:54,130 --> 00:39:57,046
I think you probably
already know.

850
00:39:58,091 --> 00:40:00,006
You were never
going to Costa Rica.

851
00:40:00,049 --> 00:40:03,531
And you know I'm not going
back with you, either.

852
00:40:05,533 --> 00:40:09,929
Moroor Amen, uh,
they're down a leader.

853
00:40:09,972 --> 00:40:13,019
The town's still vulnerable
to Taliban attacks.

854
00:40:17,110 --> 00:40:20,069
And, hey, I did say
I needed a change...

855
00:40:20,113 --> 00:40:21,941
Not exactly the beach.

856
00:40:21,984 --> 00:40:24,247
But there is sun.
Sand.

857
00:40:24,291 --> 00:40:26,467
Sand.
Lots of sand.

858
00:40:27,773 --> 00:40:28,817
Yeah.

859
00:40:30,776 --> 00:40:34,649
I have loved my time at NCIS.

860
00:40:34,693 --> 00:40:36,956
Been a really good path.

861
00:40:36,999 --> 00:40:39,306
But, um...

862
00:40:39,349 --> 00:40:41,743
you don't need me anymore.

863
00:40:43,223 --> 00:40:44,790
I'm not sure about that.

864
00:40:44,833 --> 00:40:46,966
Come on.

865
00:40:47,009 --> 00:40:49,055
I don't belong behind a desk.

866
00:40:49,098 --> 00:40:50,883
I never did.

867
00:40:54,234 --> 00:40:55,888
And you're right. I was running.

868
00:40:55,931 --> 00:40:58,368
But I don't want
to do that anymore.

869
00:40:59,587 --> 00:41:02,024
I think I can make
a difference here.

870
00:41:02,068 --> 00:41:04,549
I want to make
a difference here.

871
00:41:04,592 --> 00:41:06,812
And I know
you understand that.

872
00:41:08,857 --> 00:41:11,817
I'll call everybody,
when I'm ready.

873
00:41:13,209 --> 00:41:15,342
And as for you...

874
00:41:17,866 --> 00:41:20,652
If you ever want to visit...

875
00:41:29,704 --> 00:41:32,359
Bye, Jack.

876
00:41:32,402 --> 00:41:34,100
Bye, Gibbs.
