00:00:08,376 --> 00:00:10,611
CARL:
30 years ago
2
00:00:10,711 --> 00:00:15,049
on a cool autumn night,
just like this one,
3
00:00:15,149 --> 00:00:17,085
a group of friends,
4
00:00:17,185 --> 00:00:18,686
like you kind folk,
5
00:00:18,786 --> 00:00:22,590
got tucked into sleeping bags
for a peaceful night's rest.
6
00:00:22,690 --> 00:00:27,928
Little did they know,
they were not alone.
7
00:00:28,028 --> 00:00:29,463
For in these woods,
8
00:00:29,563 --> 00:00:31,599
the devil had emerged
from his den,
9
00:00:31,699 --> 00:00:34,902
and he was hungry.
(rustling)
10
00:00:35,002 --> 00:00:37,338
And this beast,
11
00:00:37,438 --> 00:00:39,373
the Cujo of black bears,
12
00:00:39,473 --> 00:00:41,275
sated himself
13
00:00:41,375 --> 00:00:42,476
that night
14
00:00:42,576 --> 00:00:44,245
on human flesh.
15
00:00:44,345 --> 00:00:46,780
Nature's calling.
16
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,383
Even today, we're getting
reports of an erratic bear
17
00:00:49,483 --> 00:00:51,285
traipsing through the woods.
18
00:00:51,385 --> 00:00:53,221
(twig snaps)
19
00:00:53,321 --> 00:00:54,622
(murmuring, gasping)
20
00:00:59,960 --> 00:01:02,596
(chitters)
21
00:01:02,696 --> 00:01:03,964
(laughs)
22
00:01:10,271 --> 00:01:13,874
So, keep your bear spray close.
23
00:01:14,775 --> 00:01:17,611
(screaming in distance)
24
00:01:18,379 --> 00:01:19,947
What happened?
25
00:01:20,047 --> 00:01:21,282
Are you okay?
26
00:01:21,382 --> 00:01:23,884
(panting)
27
00:01:30,491 --> 00:01:32,726
♪ ♪
28
00:02:01,855 --> 00:02:04,658
Don't be disappointed.
It all goes to a worthy cause.
29
00:02:04,758 --> 00:02:07,027
Yeah, well, what I donated
was worth a lot more
30
00:02:07,127 --> 00:02:08,362
than what it got.
31
00:02:08,462 --> 00:02:09,997
Good morning, fellas. Yeah.
32
00:02:10,097 --> 00:02:12,132
Oh, Nick, sounds like
you need this coffee
33
00:02:12,233 --> 00:02:13,467
a lot more than I do.
34
00:02:13,567 --> 00:02:14,802
Yeah, Nick joined me last night
35
00:02:14,902 --> 00:02:16,437
at Victoria's autumn auction.
36
00:02:16,537 --> 00:02:17,971
In fact, he donated one
of the prizes.
37
00:02:18,071 --> 00:02:19,207
Not just a prize.
38
00:02:19,307 --> 00:02:21,242
The best prize.
Which was?
39
00:02:21,342 --> 00:02:23,977
Lunch with a badass NCIS agent.
40
00:02:24,077 --> 00:02:25,746
And they only
bid ten bucks.
41
00:02:25,846 --> 00:02:28,582
And the dude already emailed me
trying to set something up.
42
00:02:28,682 --> 00:02:30,584
The winning parent was,
uh, Max Lautner?
43
00:02:30,684 --> 00:02:32,420
You know him?
44
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,456
I know his kid, Cole,
is a nose-picker.
45
00:02:35,556 --> 00:02:37,558
Ugh. Dad's gonna be
super annoying.
46
00:02:37,658 --> 00:02:39,393
Kind of like McGee's
school-dad friends.
47
00:02:39,493 --> 00:02:42,596
Hey, no need to drag my dad-bros
into your failure as a prize.
48
00:02:42,696 --> 00:02:44,498
Okay, that's enough
from you, all right?
49
00:02:44,598 --> 00:02:46,334
Fortunately,
I had much better luck.
50
00:02:46,434 --> 00:02:48,669
I scored a deluxe spa weekend
51
00:02:48,769 --> 00:02:50,304
at this adorable
little B&B in the Chesapeake.
52
00:02:50,404 --> 00:02:54,508
Someone say "spa weekend"?
'Cause sea-salt scrubs?
53
00:02:54,608 --> 00:02:56,810
Mmm.
I have always wanted one
of those.
54
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,449
Yeah, um, could you...?
55
00:03:01,549 --> 00:03:03,451
Come here. Can you
come... come here?
56
00:03:03,551 --> 00:03:05,085
They know we all know, right?
57
00:03:05,185 --> 00:03:06,620
Know what?
58
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:08,456
That's good. Mm-hmm.
Right?
59
00:03:08,556 --> 00:03:10,023
Yeah, so, hey, uh,
we've been date...
60
00:03:10,123 --> 00:03:13,327
We've been doing this
for a few months now.
61
00:03:13,427 --> 00:03:15,329
Yes. This. We have.
62
00:03:15,429 --> 00:03:16,497
Successfully, I think.
63
00:03:16,597 --> 00:03:19,032
Successful is an apt word.
64
00:03:19,132 --> 00:03:22,035
And I don't know
what our label is or isn't, but
65
00:03:22,135 --> 00:03:24,372
I was hoping that you might
join me at this place.
66
00:03:24,472 --> 00:03:25,939
No pressure, though, so...
67
00:03:26,039 --> 00:03:28,609
Like a... like a...
a weekend away?
68
00:03:28,709 --> 00:03:31,845
Like a whole, two-day,
69
00:03:31,945 --> 00:03:34,315
entire weekend.
You're mulling.
70
00:03:34,415 --> 00:03:36,750
I... I am mulling.
71
00:03:36,850 --> 00:03:39,119
Is this a good mulling
or a bad mulling...?
72
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,290
(phone chimes)
Oh. Parker's got a body.
73
00:03:42,390 --> 00:03:44,958
Um, talk about this later?
74
00:03:45,058 --> 00:03:46,560
Yes.
Okay.
75
00:03:46,660 --> 00:03:48,896
And I will...
I will keep mulling.
76
00:03:56,504 --> 00:03:58,138
Oh. You get lost on the trail?
77
00:03:58,238 --> 00:04:01,375
Nah. Just delayed. Couldn't find
my, uh, 500-millimeter lens.
78
00:04:01,475 --> 00:04:04,678
You, uh, do know our crime scene
kits have these in 'em, right?
79
00:04:04,778 --> 00:04:06,680
Oh, this baby's not meant
to shoot bodies.
80
00:04:06,780 --> 00:04:09,283
It's meant
to shoot the rarest of birds.
81
00:04:09,383 --> 00:04:11,118
The elusive scarlet tanager.
82
00:04:11,218 --> 00:04:12,586
They live high
in the trees here
83
00:04:12,686 --> 00:04:14,221
in the Shenandoah, and today
84
00:04:14,322 --> 00:04:16,524
is the day that I digitally
85
00:04:16,624 --> 00:04:18,992
bag one. Yeah.
86
00:04:20,193 --> 00:04:23,397
But not until we get our
sailor here taken care of.
87
00:04:23,497 --> 00:04:26,867
Petty Officer Third Class
Aaron Thomas. What do we know?
88
00:04:26,967 --> 00:04:29,537
Camper and her guide
stumbled across the body.
89
00:04:29,637 --> 00:04:31,605
Guide is convinced
it was a bear attack.
90
00:04:31,705 --> 00:04:33,541
Apparently,
in the last 24 hours,
91
00:04:33,641 --> 00:04:36,710
there's been multiple sightings
of a black bear behaving oddly.
92
00:04:36,810 --> 00:04:38,512
(as Yogi Bear):
Oddly how, Boo-Boo?
93
00:04:38,612 --> 00:04:40,781
Like stealing
a pic-a-nic basket?
94
00:04:40,881 --> 00:04:42,350
Well, in order
to get away with murder,
95
00:04:42,450 --> 00:04:45,052
he'd have to be smarter
than the av-er-age bear.
96
00:04:45,152 --> 00:04:46,820
(Jimmy laughs)
97
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:48,989
No, but bears do, do their
business out there in the woods.
98
00:04:49,089 --> 00:04:51,359
They don't open
bathroom doors, nor
99
00:04:51,459 --> 00:04:52,760
do they kill with knives.
100
00:04:52,860 --> 00:04:55,663
So our petty officer
was stabbed to death?
101
00:04:55,763 --> 00:04:58,231
JIMMY:
Three precise stab wounds
102
00:04:58,332 --> 00:04:59,933
at three key arteries.
103
00:05:00,033 --> 00:05:02,169
He bled out about 12 hours ago.
104
00:05:02,269 --> 00:05:05,238
And... no defensive wounds.
105
00:05:05,339 --> 00:05:07,375
So our victim might have known
his killer.
106
00:05:07,475 --> 00:05:08,876
Or was surprised by 'em.
107
00:05:08,976 --> 00:05:10,844
So our killer certainly knew
how to use a knife.
108
00:05:10,944 --> 00:05:12,846
Could be a hunter.
109
00:05:13,747 --> 00:05:14,948
All right, thanks, Doc.
110
00:05:15,048 --> 00:05:16,817
Yeah.
111
00:05:17,585 --> 00:05:19,219
(sighs)
(radio chatter)
112
00:05:19,319 --> 00:05:22,022
Park rangers are talking
to the campers, but
113
00:05:22,122 --> 00:05:23,591
they didn't see anyone
on the trail.
114
00:05:23,691 --> 00:05:26,460
So our suspect left
the scene off-trail,
115
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:27,961
which means
he could have gone anywhere.
116
00:05:28,061 --> 00:05:29,997
KNIGHT:
I think he headed southeast.
117
00:05:31,899 --> 00:05:34,602
Spotted a possible exit route
from up there.
118
00:05:35,436 --> 00:05:39,607
Any chance you also spotted
a scarlet tanager?
119
00:05:39,707 --> 00:05:42,109
No, but the trail leads
this way.
120
00:05:42,209 --> 00:05:46,279
Go. I'll coordinate with the
Park Service Rangers on-site.
121
00:05:46,380 --> 00:05:48,281
And stay out of the trees!
122
00:05:49,850 --> 00:05:52,786
The trail's leading
down to the water.
123
00:06:05,899 --> 00:06:08,335
About time you caught up, Tripsie.
124
00:06:09,603 --> 00:06:11,104
Knight, you know this guy?
125
00:06:11,204 --> 00:06:13,641
Yeah, we may have crossed paths
a few times.
126
00:06:13,741 --> 00:06:15,075
This is, uh,
127
00:06:15,175 --> 00:06:16,610
Special Agent
Gage Winchester.
128
00:06:16,710 --> 00:06:19,146
Crossed paths? Really?
129
00:06:20,614 --> 00:06:23,684
He's also my ex-boyfriend.
130
00:06:26,186 --> 00:06:28,221
(chuckles)
131
00:06:34,528 --> 00:06:35,929
Been a long time, Jess.
132
00:06:36,029 --> 00:06:39,733
Yeah. What's it been?
Like, three, four years?
133
00:06:39,833 --> 00:06:41,969
Howled at half a dozen
wolf moons without you,
134
00:06:42,069 --> 00:06:43,637
but who's counting?
135
00:06:45,973 --> 00:06:49,176
So you are Agent
Winchester of the, uh...?
136
00:06:49,276 --> 00:06:52,546
U.S. National Park Service
Investigative Services Branch.
137
00:06:52,646 --> 00:06:56,383
Uh, ISB is the us
of National Park Service.
138
00:06:56,484 --> 00:06:58,018
Oh, nature cops.
139
00:06:58,118 --> 00:06:59,052
That's cool.
140
00:06:59,152 --> 00:07:00,387
Well, I'm Agent McGee,
141
00:07:00,488 --> 00:07:02,122
and this is Agent Torres.
142
00:07:02,222 --> 00:07:04,057
Yeah, can I interest you
in a shirt?
143
00:07:04,157 --> 00:07:06,026
Perhaps, uh, some pants?
144
00:07:06,126 --> 00:07:08,629
Nah. Prefer to air-dry first.
145
00:07:08,729 --> 00:07:10,330
Of course you do.
Mm-hmm.
146
00:07:10,430 --> 00:07:13,467
Uh, what are you
doing here, Gage?
147
00:07:13,567 --> 00:07:16,904
Same thing you are--
investigating a murder.
148
00:07:17,004 --> 00:07:18,639
I thought
you were based in Colorado.
149
00:07:18,739 --> 00:07:21,441
I am, but I was running
a training op up in Maine.
150
00:07:21,542 --> 00:07:23,644
When I heard about the body,
I hopped on a redeye
151
00:07:23,744 --> 00:07:25,679
so I could start
the ISB investigation.
152
00:07:25,779 --> 00:07:29,550
So you flew overnight to be
the first one on the scene here?
153
00:07:29,650 --> 00:07:31,852
And spotted the same path
the killer took down here.
154
00:07:31,952 --> 00:07:34,488
How'd you end up
in the water?
Yeah, naked.
155
00:07:34,588 --> 00:07:37,090
Well, trail went cold,
and I was smelling a little ripe
156
00:07:37,190 --> 00:07:39,960
after that flight, so I hopped
in for a quick nature bath
157
00:07:40,060 --> 00:07:41,294
just as you caught up.
158
00:07:41,394 --> 00:07:43,964
As one does.
Yeah. No. It makes sense to me.
159
00:07:44,064 --> 00:07:45,966
Hey, guys. I need your official
signature to release the body.
160
00:07:46,066 --> 00:07:47,300
That's not a dead body.
161
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:48,502
That's a very
healthy-looking body.
162
00:07:48,602 --> 00:07:49,770
Whose body is that body?
163
00:07:49,870 --> 00:07:51,672
Uh, Jimmy, this...
Uh, Dr. Palmer,
164
00:07:51,772 --> 00:07:54,608
this is, uh,
Agent Winchester.
165
00:07:54,708 --> 00:07:55,442
Oh.
166
00:07:55,543 --> 00:07:57,511
Gage... Winchester.
167
00:07:57,611 --> 00:08:00,848
Of National Park Service.
Good to meet you, Doctor.
168
00:08:00,948 --> 00:08:02,916
Yeah.
McGEE: You know,
Jimmy, funny thing.
169
00:08:03,016 --> 00:08:04,451
Uh, Gage and Knight
actually know each other.
170
00:08:04,552 --> 00:08:06,019
Yeah, actually,
quite, uh...
171
00:08:06,119 --> 00:08:07,555
quite close.
172
00:08:07,655 --> 00:08:08,922
And we are just dying
to get the full scoop here.
173
00:08:09,022 --> 00:08:10,090
We are, yeah.
174
00:08:10,190 --> 00:08:11,559
Right.
175
00:08:11,659 --> 00:08:13,627
Jimmy, Gage is my ex-boyfriend.
176
00:08:13,727 --> 00:08:16,363
Oh. What a small world
of federal agents.
177
00:08:17,164 --> 00:08:18,298
You two met how?
178
00:08:18,398 --> 00:08:20,734
At FLETC training
in New Mexico.
179
00:08:20,834 --> 00:08:25,539
You know, we would, uh, spend
weekends together... camping.
180
00:08:25,639 --> 00:08:27,474
And then, you know, we had
a couple of years of...
181
00:08:27,575 --> 00:08:29,076
of long-distance
relationship, but you know,
182
00:08:29,176 --> 00:08:31,111
our assignments would just
keep us apart.
183
00:08:31,211 --> 00:08:33,714
Your assignment.
184
00:08:33,814 --> 00:08:36,383
We were accepted to be
Rangers together, but, uh,
185
00:08:36,483 --> 00:08:38,719
Jess turned down their offer
to join NCIS.
186
00:08:38,819 --> 00:08:41,354
Which is why we are here--
because
187
00:08:41,454 --> 00:08:43,156
there is a dead
petty officer.
188
00:08:43,256 --> 00:08:45,092
Why send the ISB
to investigate?
189
00:08:45,192 --> 00:08:48,528
There's been a recent uptick
in homicides in national parks.
190
00:08:48,629 --> 00:08:50,931
My superiors are looking
for answers.
191
00:08:51,031 --> 00:08:52,399
How many murders and where?
192
00:08:52,499 --> 00:08:54,501
The Everglades,
the Great Smoky Mountains,
193
00:08:54,602 --> 00:08:56,503
and now here in Shenandoah.
194
00:08:56,604 --> 00:08:57,905
Three victims
in eight weeks.
195
00:08:58,005 --> 00:08:59,707
You're thinking
that they're all connected?
196
00:08:59,807 --> 00:09:03,811
No idea. We haven't been able
to solve one yet.
197
00:09:05,345 --> 00:09:07,447
Come on, Tripsie.
198
00:09:07,547 --> 00:09:08,716
You and I together again?
199
00:09:08,816 --> 00:09:10,618
I know we can find
this killer's trail.
200
00:09:10,718 --> 00:09:12,753
Who's Tripsie?
Sorry. It's an
201
00:09:12,853 --> 00:09:14,755
old nickname I had for Jess.
202
00:09:14,855 --> 00:09:17,024
Oh, you had nicknames.
How cute.
203
00:09:17,124 --> 00:09:19,559
Uh, well, you know,
Ga-Gage isn't wrong.
204
00:09:19,660 --> 00:09:21,394
If we find
the killer's
205
00:09:21,494 --> 00:09:22,763
exit route,
then we might be able
206
00:09:22,863 --> 00:09:24,297
to find some clues
about their identity.
207
00:09:24,397 --> 00:09:25,766
All right, well,
we'll head back and, uh,
208
00:09:25,866 --> 00:09:27,400
start digging into
Petty Officer Thomas.
209
00:09:27,500 --> 00:09:29,469
Yeah, yeah, and
I'll-I'll see you later, Gage.
210
00:09:29,569 --> 00:09:32,673
I'll see what I get off
the body back at autopsy.
211
00:09:36,476 --> 00:09:38,045
Let's go, Tripsie.
212
00:09:43,083 --> 00:09:45,352
Victim is Petty Officer
Aaron Thomas,
213
00:09:45,452 --> 00:09:49,556
23 years old, served as a
gunner's mate on the USS Mahan.
214
00:09:49,657 --> 00:09:50,924
What was he doing
out at the park?
215
00:09:51,024 --> 00:09:53,393
C.O. said he was an avid
outdoor enthusiast.
216
00:09:53,493 --> 00:09:54,527
If he wasn't on the ship,
217
00:09:54,628 --> 00:09:56,096
he was building campfires.
218
00:09:56,196 --> 00:09:57,798
He go out there with anyone?
219
00:09:57,898 --> 00:10:00,500
Bunkmates said
he preferred camping alone.
220
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,703
Two dozen sailors crammed
into a single berth?
221
00:10:02,803 --> 00:10:04,437
I'd want a little me-time, too.
222
00:10:04,537 --> 00:10:07,207
Well, Thomas's minimal security
clearance gave him no access
223
00:10:07,307 --> 00:10:08,541
to vital intel.
224
00:10:08,642 --> 00:10:10,543
So, it's unlikely
that he was targeted
225
00:10:10,644 --> 00:10:12,345
because of his job
in the Navy.
226
00:10:12,445 --> 00:10:13,881
Why was he killed?
227
00:10:13,981 --> 00:10:16,016
And why was he killed in
the middle of a national park?
228
00:10:16,116 --> 00:10:18,385
No one around for miles
to catch 'em in the act.
229
00:10:18,485 --> 00:10:19,787
All right, Torres,
start with this.
230
00:10:19,887 --> 00:10:21,288
Who was in that park
in the last 72 hours.
231
00:10:21,388 --> 00:10:22,622
McGee, license plates,
232
00:10:22,723 --> 00:10:23,924
credit cards, anything
233
00:10:24,024 --> 00:10:25,492
to give us IDs
that we can cull.
234
00:10:25,592 --> 00:10:27,895
Gentlemen, I just
got off the phone with
235
00:10:27,995 --> 00:10:29,663
my counterpart
at the National Parks Service.
236
00:10:29,763 --> 00:10:31,832
What did the, uh,
flat hat brigade want?
237
00:10:31,932 --> 00:10:34,034
To team up,
and since their man was first
238
00:10:34,134 --> 00:10:35,435
to the scene, I agreed.
239
00:10:35,535 --> 00:10:37,204
So, now, this is
a joint investigation
240
00:10:37,304 --> 00:10:39,239
with ISB Agent Winchester.
241
00:10:39,339 --> 00:10:41,108
But it's a Navy victim!
242
00:10:41,208 --> 00:10:43,043
No. No. No way, man.
243
00:10:43,143 --> 00:10:44,244
You tell the NPS
244
00:10:44,344 --> 00:10:46,880
to back off
and let us do what we do.
245
00:10:47,681 --> 00:10:49,683
Is there going
to be a problem, Agent Parker?
246
00:10:49,783 --> 00:10:51,184
Look, it's just that, uh, me
247
00:10:51,284 --> 00:10:55,188
and the NPS haven't always
seen eye-to-eye.
248
00:10:55,288 --> 00:10:57,290
About what?
About a mild
249
00:10:57,390 --> 00:10:58,658
trespassing allegation.
250
00:10:58,759 --> 00:11:01,094
Define "mild."
Golden Gate National Park,
251
00:11:01,194 --> 00:11:02,763
summer 2016.
252
00:11:02,863 --> 00:11:06,767
It was the biggest western snowy
plover mating season in years.
253
00:11:06,867 --> 00:11:08,635
Snowy what?
Bird-nerd alert.
254
00:11:08,736 --> 00:11:10,370
Maybe I climbed a fence
255
00:11:10,470 --> 00:11:13,907
with a "Do Not Climb" sign to
get a shot of the nesting area,
256
00:11:14,007 --> 00:11:15,909
but this was one
for my wall, okay?
257
00:11:16,009 --> 00:11:18,211
You understand?
This was a framer.
258
00:11:18,311 --> 00:11:20,213
Yeah, until you got caught
by the NPS.
259
00:11:20,313 --> 00:11:22,816
And put on a list.
All right, well, you cooperate
260
00:11:22,916 --> 00:11:24,151
with Agent Winchester
on this case,
261
00:11:24,251 --> 00:11:25,652
and maybe
we can get you off that list.
262
00:11:25,753 --> 00:11:27,487
Agent Knight is out now
at the park
263
00:11:27,587 --> 00:11:31,024
with her ISB ex-boyfriend trying
to track the killer's trail.
264
00:11:31,124 --> 00:11:32,659
(stammers) Rewind.
265
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:34,127
Agent Knight
had some kind of
266
00:11:34,227 --> 00:11:36,129
previous personal relation
to Agent Winchester?
267
00:11:36,229 --> 00:11:38,365
You need us
to define "personal"?
268
00:11:38,465 --> 00:11:39,466
Does Palmer know?
269
00:11:39,566 --> 00:11:40,700
Oh, yeah.
270
00:11:40,801 --> 00:11:42,602
Is that gonna be a problem?
271
00:11:42,702 --> 00:11:44,104
Well, let me put it like this.
272
00:11:44,204 --> 00:11:46,606
Uh, I know each
of Delilah's exes.
273
00:11:46,706 --> 00:11:48,008
No problems there, but
274
00:11:48,108 --> 00:11:50,243
if Gage Winchester
was one of 'em?
275
00:11:50,343 --> 00:11:52,279
Yeah, she could keep that one
to herself.
276
00:11:52,379 --> 00:11:53,881
Then somebody
should give the good doctor
277
00:11:53,981 --> 00:11:55,415
a heads-up
that we'll be seeing a lot more
278
00:11:55,515 --> 00:11:57,084
of Agent Winchester.
279
00:12:01,354 --> 00:12:02,655
I don't understand the issue.
280
00:12:02,756 --> 00:12:04,357
Well, I could push back
a little harder.
281
00:12:04,457 --> 00:12:07,895
The two of them working together
is a clear conflict of interest.
282
00:12:07,995 --> 00:12:09,830
Was it a conflict
of interest
283
00:12:09,930 --> 00:12:12,632
when you were working with
your ex-wife three months ago?
284
00:12:13,767 --> 00:12:15,869
Uh, look,
from what I understand,
285
00:12:15,969 --> 00:12:17,971
Agent Winchester
has a unique skill set
286
00:12:18,071 --> 00:12:20,207
that will really aid
in this investigation.
287
00:12:20,307 --> 00:12:21,608
The fact that he and Knight
288
00:12:21,708 --> 00:12:23,143
were...
289
00:12:23,977 --> 00:12:26,013
...camping together--
that doesn't bother you?
290
00:12:26,113 --> 00:12:29,950
Why would them camping together
a lifetime ago bother me?
291
00:12:30,050 --> 00:12:32,752
I don't mean
camping-camping. I mean...
292
00:12:32,853 --> 00:12:34,354
I know what you meant,
293
00:12:34,454 --> 00:12:35,823
but Agents Knight and Winchester
are trained professionals.
294
00:12:35,923 --> 00:12:37,357
I'll trust they'll keep things
295
00:12:37,457 --> 00:12:38,892
professional
out in the field.
296
00:12:38,992 --> 00:12:41,862
Just like you and Knight
keep things professional here.
297
00:12:41,962 --> 00:12:44,497
Let's move on to my report.
298
00:12:44,597 --> 00:12:48,435
Well, definitely not
bear claw marks.
299
00:12:48,535 --> 00:12:51,071
A four-inch hunting blade
severed the carotid artery,
300
00:12:51,171 --> 00:12:53,773
the femoral artery, as well
as the inferior vena cava
301
00:12:53,874 --> 00:12:55,308
deep inside of his abdomen.
302
00:12:55,408 --> 00:12:57,945
Exsanguination would have
occurred within minutes.
303
00:12:58,045 --> 00:12:59,679
Killer bled him out efficiently.
304
00:12:59,779 --> 00:13:02,015
The attacker was
six-foot, six-foot-two
305
00:13:02,115 --> 00:13:03,616
based on the angle
of the wounds.
306
00:13:03,716 --> 00:13:05,018
Can we trace the knife?
307
00:13:05,118 --> 00:13:06,920
A four-inch blade
is far too common
308
00:13:07,020 --> 00:13:08,655
to narrow it down
to a make and model.
309
00:13:08,755 --> 00:13:10,057
However...
Ooh.
310
00:13:10,157 --> 00:13:11,925
Can't sneeze
at a good "however."
311
00:13:12,025 --> 00:13:16,063
The expert lethality of the
wounds really got me thinking.
312
00:13:16,163 --> 00:13:18,198
Ah, these are
the other park murders
313
00:13:18,298 --> 00:13:19,933
Winchester was looking into.
314
00:13:20,033 --> 00:13:23,203
Right. The Everglades victim
was barbecued in a campfire,
315
00:13:23,303 --> 00:13:26,339
while the Smoky Mountains victim
was shoved off of a cliff.
316
00:13:26,439 --> 00:13:28,175
Gross. And grosser.
317
00:13:28,275 --> 00:13:29,776
I think I might have
found something
318
00:13:29,877 --> 00:13:31,845
the other M.E.s may
have overlooked,
319
00:13:31,945 --> 00:13:33,180
probably because of the severity
320
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:34,781
of the wounds
to the victims' bodies.
321
00:13:34,882 --> 00:13:36,884
But I think these injuries...
322
00:13:36,984 --> 00:13:39,652
were covering up
other wounds.
323
00:13:40,653 --> 00:13:44,091
I think each one
of these is a stab wound.
324
00:13:44,191 --> 00:13:46,927
Each one of them hit
a major artery.
325
00:13:47,027 --> 00:13:48,528
Each with a four-inch blade.
326
00:13:48,628 --> 00:13:50,030
Just like our victim.
327
00:13:50,130 --> 00:13:52,032
Yeah, I had Kasie scan all
of these photos
328
00:13:52,132 --> 00:13:54,634
to render a 3D composite image.
329
00:13:55,735 --> 00:13:59,572
Now, the angle
of the wound would suggest
330
00:13:59,672 --> 00:14:02,009
a six-foot-ish attacker.
331
00:14:02,109 --> 00:14:04,744
Same M.O.
Could be the same person.
332
00:14:04,844 --> 00:14:08,215
Which would mean that we have
a serial killer who's hunting
333
00:14:08,315 --> 00:14:10,383
in our national parks.
334
00:14:12,419 --> 00:14:15,688
Mmm. I forgot what
fresh smells like.
335
00:14:15,788 --> 00:14:18,391
Don't tell me this NCIS
posting's turned you city.
336
00:14:18,491 --> 00:14:22,362
(laughs)
Let's just say that I am
no longer opposed to certain
337
00:14:22,462 --> 00:14:23,897
urban creature comforts.
338
00:14:23,997 --> 00:14:25,265
Like?
339
00:14:25,365 --> 00:14:26,967
Endless hot showers,
340
00:14:27,067 --> 00:14:30,037
or 2:00 a.m. Kabob
Palace delivery. Mmm.
341
00:14:30,137 --> 00:14:33,240
Long gone are the days of you
catching your own dinner, huh?
342
00:14:33,340 --> 00:14:35,042
Just because I don't,
doesn't mean I can't.
343
00:14:35,142 --> 00:14:37,277
It's not like it's a skill
that you for...
344
00:14:37,377 --> 00:14:39,179
Paw prints.
345
00:14:39,279 --> 00:14:42,115
Black bear.
Guessing an adult male.
346
00:14:42,916 --> 00:14:45,986
Except the palm pad
isn't uniform.
347
00:14:46,086 --> 00:14:47,854
It's like there's a second print
on the inside.
348
00:14:47,955 --> 00:14:49,822
Clean oval shape.
349
00:14:49,923 --> 00:14:51,191
It's a shoe.
350
00:14:51,291 --> 00:14:53,493
Someone is stepping
in the bear prints,
351
00:14:53,593 --> 00:14:55,495
using it to mask their own.
352
00:14:55,595 --> 00:14:56,896
That has to be our suspect.
353
00:14:56,997 --> 00:14:58,898
Then we follow the bear.
354
00:14:58,999 --> 00:15:00,867
Guess you haven't gone city
after all.
355
00:15:04,938 --> 00:15:07,640
Let's just hope this isn't
a Yellowstone repeat.
356
00:15:07,740 --> 00:15:09,342
That moose attacked me unprovoked.
357
00:15:09,442 --> 00:15:10,978
It was courting a cow.
358
00:15:11,078 --> 00:15:13,713
It did not need you peeping
on its mating ritual.
359
00:15:13,813 --> 00:15:16,049
We certainly had
some adventures together.
360
00:15:17,317 --> 00:15:19,019
Definitely was hoping
we'd have more.
361
00:15:19,119 --> 00:15:21,088
Simmer down there, Moosie.
362
00:15:21,188 --> 00:15:23,323
It's easy to remember
the good times first.
363
00:15:23,423 --> 00:15:25,592
We did have our share
of the not-so-good.
364
00:15:25,692 --> 00:15:28,295
Yeah.
Most of those were on me.
365
00:15:29,129 --> 00:15:31,031
Takes two to tango.
366
00:15:31,131 --> 00:15:33,166
And I stepped
on your toes plenty.
367
00:15:33,266 --> 00:15:37,804
Still, I wasn't easy to be with
when I was a younger man,
368
00:15:37,904 --> 00:15:40,307
but I'm not that same man now.
369
00:15:40,407 --> 00:15:42,209
I hope that's true.
370
00:15:43,110 --> 00:15:44,844
For your own happiness.
371
00:15:44,944 --> 00:15:47,380
I am happy,
but call me Pinocchio
372
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,416
if there ain't
something missing.
373
00:15:50,984 --> 00:15:52,652
(snake hissing)
374
00:15:52,752 --> 00:15:55,188
Whoa.
375
00:16:00,627 --> 00:16:02,395
Thanks.
376
00:16:02,495 --> 00:16:04,864
Sure.
377
00:16:09,569 --> 00:16:11,238
That's smoke.
378
00:16:11,338 --> 00:16:13,806
There aren't any
campsites out here.
379
00:16:16,409 --> 00:16:19,212
♪ ♪
380
00:16:19,312 --> 00:16:22,315
Damn it.
We must've just missed him.
381
00:16:24,084 --> 00:16:26,919
Yeah, maybe he heard us
and decided to run.
382
00:16:28,155 --> 00:16:29,889
Burned some evidence.
383
00:16:30,690 --> 00:16:32,192
(grunts)
384
00:16:34,561 --> 00:16:36,029
Nice save.
385
00:16:38,031 --> 00:16:39,699
Got something.
386
00:16:39,799 --> 00:16:41,734
Anything good?
387
00:16:41,834 --> 00:16:43,903
Looks like a map of the park.
388
00:16:44,003 --> 00:16:46,139
What the hell?
What is it?
389
00:16:46,239 --> 00:16:48,141
It's you.
390
00:16:55,315 --> 00:16:58,885
Why does our murder suspect
have your photo?
391
00:17:09,496 --> 00:17:11,198
You can't kick me off
this investigation!
392
00:17:11,298 --> 00:17:13,533
We're not, but you might be
a potential target
393
00:17:13,633 --> 00:17:15,068
so you are
to remain in this building,
394
00:17:15,168 --> 00:17:17,637
and you will support
Agent Parker's team from here.
395
00:17:17,737 --> 00:17:19,106
Thanks to you
and Knight's quick work,
396
00:17:19,206 --> 00:17:21,641
we've got some evidence
from that fire we can process.
397
00:17:21,741 --> 00:17:25,212
Hopefully, we can get an ID
on who tried to destroy it.
398
00:17:25,312 --> 00:17:26,613
If you want
to find this guy,
399
00:17:26,713 --> 00:17:28,315
you get me back out there
with Jess
400
00:17:28,415 --> 00:17:30,417
so I can pick up the trail.
401
00:17:30,517 --> 00:17:32,519
I've made my decision.
402
00:17:37,357 --> 00:17:39,025
Fine. You're the boss.
403
00:17:39,126 --> 00:17:40,493
Agent Winchester?
404
00:17:41,894 --> 00:17:45,198
My counterpart at NPS said
another ISB agent,
405
00:17:45,298 --> 00:17:47,667
one right here in D.C.,
was supposed to take this case.
406
00:17:47,767 --> 00:17:50,937
Apparently, you pulled rank
so that you could take lead.
407
00:17:51,037 --> 00:17:53,806
I've been working these murders
for weeks now.
408
00:17:53,906 --> 00:17:55,608
Except you didn't rush
to the other two
409
00:17:55,708 --> 00:17:57,110
crime scenes on a redeye.
410
00:17:57,210 --> 00:17:58,311
This one you did.
411
00:17:58,411 --> 00:17:59,312
What's your point?
412
00:17:59,412 --> 00:18:00,647
Well, we're curious to know
413
00:18:00,747 --> 00:18:02,249
if the fact that NCIS
414
00:18:02,349 --> 00:18:03,483
would be
on this particular murder
415
00:18:03,583 --> 00:18:04,817
played a factor
416
00:18:04,917 --> 00:18:06,386
in your swift call to action.
417
00:18:06,486 --> 00:18:08,421
If you mean Agent Knight?
418
00:18:08,521 --> 00:18:09,789
I came here to catch a killer,
419
00:18:09,889 --> 00:18:11,258
not to catch dinner
with a former flame.
420
00:18:11,358 --> 00:18:15,562
So everything between you two
is just ancient history?
421
00:18:15,662 --> 00:18:18,097
Old as a giant sequoia.
422
00:18:25,805 --> 00:18:28,040
Great. Thank you, Sheriff.
423
00:18:28,141 --> 00:18:33,580
Okay. Knight and Gage found
that evidence-burning fire here.
424
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,748
(phone buttons clicking)
Nick?
425
00:18:35,848 --> 00:18:39,051
Oh, sorry, man. I just can't
with this guy-- Max Lautner.
426
00:18:39,152 --> 00:18:41,120
Ah. The school parent
that won the lunch with you?
427
00:18:41,221 --> 00:18:44,491
Yeah, he keeps, uh, texting me
trying to set up a date.
428
00:18:44,591 --> 00:18:45,858
Unsolicited advice?
429
00:18:45,958 --> 00:18:47,560
Get it over with,
like, yesterday.
430
00:18:47,660 --> 00:18:49,296
Otherwise, it is a sword
hanging over your head.
431
00:18:49,396 --> 00:18:51,564
Yeah, I'll text him later,
try to set something up
432
00:18:51,664 --> 00:18:53,266
right after
we finish this case.
433
00:18:53,366 --> 00:18:55,735
All right, now you see this,
uh, steep terrain around
434
00:18:55,835 --> 00:18:58,338
the suspect's fire?
Yeah, probably hiked
out of the park
435
00:18:58,438 --> 00:18:59,706
towards, uh, Route 33.
436
00:18:59,806 --> 00:19:01,174
Put out a BOLO,
ten-mile stretch.
437
00:19:01,274 --> 00:19:02,442
Maybe someone saw 'em hitching
438
00:19:02,542 --> 00:19:04,311
or something. Hey.
439
00:19:04,411 --> 00:19:05,778
Have you guys
seen Jess?
440
00:19:05,878 --> 00:19:08,181
Uh, she's with Kasie
down at the lab.
441
00:19:08,281 --> 00:19:10,183
Great.
Hey, uh, Jimmy?
442
00:19:10,283 --> 00:19:11,818
Yeah?
Listen, you, uh...
443
00:19:11,918 --> 00:19:13,453
You know we were just
kind of having fun with you
444
00:19:13,553 --> 00:19:14,954
back at the crime scene, right?
445
00:19:15,054 --> 00:19:16,723
Oh, you're talking
about Agent Winchester?
446
00:19:16,823 --> 00:19:18,491
So, how are you doing
with this whole
447
00:19:18,591 --> 00:19:19,892
situation?
448
00:19:19,992 --> 00:19:21,528
Uh, the only situation
I'm aware of is
449
00:19:21,628 --> 00:19:23,396
that, uh, they were once
in a relationship,
450
00:19:23,496 --> 00:19:25,498
and that relationship
is no more.
451
00:19:25,598 --> 00:19:27,467
Well, that is
a very mature response.
452
00:19:27,567 --> 00:19:28,935
Oh, so you're really not worried
453
00:19:29,035 --> 00:19:30,603
about this, uh,
ghost of boyfriends past?
454
00:19:30,703 --> 00:19:32,372
I don't see why I should be.
455
00:19:32,472 --> 00:19:33,806
You know what?
456
00:19:33,906 --> 00:19:35,942
'Cause you're too nice
of a guy to stalk him,
457
00:19:36,042 --> 00:19:37,310
but I am not.
458
00:19:38,110 --> 00:19:41,281
Aside from having
the coolest name ever,
459
00:19:41,381 --> 00:19:42,649
he's got a life
to match.
460
00:19:42,749 --> 00:19:44,651
I mean, look at all
the cool stuff he does.
461
00:19:44,751 --> 00:19:46,085
Okay, not
that it's a competition,
462
00:19:46,185 --> 00:19:47,654
but you guys know
I have the goods, too, right?
463
00:19:47,754 --> 00:19:50,390
Accomplished doctor,
devoted father,
464
00:19:50,490 --> 00:19:51,858
very dependable friend.
465
00:19:51,958 --> 00:19:54,527
Let's see. I'm a bio-terror
attack survivor.
466
00:19:54,627 --> 00:19:55,595
Okay, Jimmy. I...
467
00:19:55,695 --> 00:19:58,331
Jimmy, trust me, man. We know.
468
00:19:58,431 --> 00:20:02,735
The list of humble brags--
I mean, goes for miles.
469
00:20:02,835 --> 00:20:04,571
But you know what
makes you a great guy?
470
00:20:04,671 --> 00:20:06,138
What?
Lift up your shirt.
471
00:20:06,239 --> 00:20:08,608
Oh, shut up, Nick.
Oh, come on, man.
472
00:20:08,708 --> 00:20:11,711
Show McGee what you're bringing
to the competition.
473
00:20:14,447 --> 00:20:15,848
Damn.
Oh, my God, man.
474
00:20:15,948 --> 00:20:17,116
Jimmy, how long
you've been rocking those guys?
475
00:20:17,216 --> 00:20:18,451
Okay, guys, look.
476
00:20:18,551 --> 00:20:20,186
Jess and I might not have
a label, all right?
477
00:20:20,287 --> 00:20:24,491
But I have zero fear
about this ex-boyfriend of hers
478
00:20:24,591 --> 00:20:25,625
coming back into her life.
479
00:20:25,725 --> 00:20:26,993
It's fine.
480
00:20:28,561 --> 00:20:30,897
Did you see this?
Oh, my God.
481
00:20:30,997 --> 00:20:34,166
Fingerprints don't like heat,
so fire is not their friend.
482
00:20:34,267 --> 00:20:36,536
So I toasted my favorite pair
of field boots
483
00:20:36,636 --> 00:20:38,305
saving all of this stuff
for nothing?
484
00:20:38,405 --> 00:20:41,007
TBD. I was able
to pull enough partials
485
00:20:41,107 --> 00:20:43,242
to piece together
a rough composite,
486
00:20:43,343 --> 00:20:46,012
then fed the computer an
algorithm filling in the gaps,
487
00:20:46,112 --> 00:20:47,814
pulling data
from those in the system
488
00:20:47,914 --> 00:20:49,649
who fit the typical
serial killer profile.
489
00:20:49,749 --> 00:20:53,152
Like how Jurassic Park
plugged the gaps with frog DNA?
490
00:20:53,252 --> 00:20:55,021
Should have said that.
Much easier.
491
00:20:55,121 --> 00:20:58,090
I'm plugging the gaps with
six-foot to six-foot-two
492
00:20:58,190 --> 00:21:01,193
suspects,
most likely Caucasian male,
493
00:21:01,294 --> 00:21:03,430
known history
of knives, yada, yada.
494
00:21:03,530 --> 00:21:05,264
Okay. I will, uh,
update the team.
495
00:21:05,365 --> 00:21:06,633
Uh, no, no, no.
496
00:21:06,733 --> 00:21:08,067
Not so fast.
497
00:21:08,167 --> 00:21:09,602
You failed to mention
the camping companion
498
00:21:09,702 --> 00:21:11,371
from your past
who's roaming the halls
499
00:21:11,471 --> 00:21:13,272
is Paul Bunyan with a badge.
500
00:21:13,373 --> 00:21:14,607
Why didn't it work out?
501
00:21:14,707 --> 00:21:17,109
That is a long story.
502
00:21:23,550 --> 00:21:26,319
One that involves my mother?
503
00:21:26,419 --> 00:21:28,888
Hello, plot twist.
504
00:21:28,988 --> 00:21:31,991
My mom never wanted me
to get into law enforcement.
505
00:21:32,091 --> 00:21:34,060
And when I did,
she stopped talking to me.
506
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,429
But how did Gage play into that?
507
00:21:36,529 --> 00:21:38,465
He was my escape.
508
00:21:38,565 --> 00:21:40,833
Something must have happened.
509
00:21:41,668 --> 00:21:44,537
My mom and I reached
a stalemate.
510
00:21:44,637 --> 00:21:47,440
And once that drama
started fading...
511
00:21:47,540 --> 00:21:49,275
(sighs)
512
00:21:49,376 --> 00:21:51,578
Gage is great
at playing the hero,
513
00:21:51,678 --> 00:21:54,113
and he is there for you
in a crisis.
514
00:21:54,213 --> 00:21:58,885
But once that's over,
he's only there for himself.
515
00:21:58,985 --> 00:22:00,987
His loss is NCIS's gain.
516
00:22:01,087 --> 00:22:03,390
It's weird seeing him here.
517
00:22:03,490 --> 00:22:06,726
It's even weirder having
to work with him again.
518
00:22:06,826 --> 00:22:09,962
That is a delightful analysis
of your past,
519
00:22:10,062 --> 00:22:12,365
but it's really
about your present.
520
00:22:12,465 --> 00:22:15,835
Jimmy.
Whatever happened
with Gage
521
00:22:15,935 --> 00:22:18,605
has you spooked
about working with Jimmy...
522
00:22:18,705 --> 00:22:20,440
if things don't work out.
523
00:22:20,540 --> 00:22:22,909
The real question is,
524
00:22:23,009 --> 00:22:24,877
what do you want now?
525
00:22:26,245 --> 00:22:27,547
(computer chirps)
526
00:22:27,647 --> 00:22:30,683
Oh. Is that a suspect match?
527
00:22:32,051 --> 00:22:34,253
Saved by the algorithm.
528
00:22:34,353 --> 00:22:38,425
Got a 90% hit
on a convicted felon.
529
00:22:38,525 --> 00:22:40,259
I will take those odds.
530
00:22:43,430 --> 00:22:46,466
KNIGHT:
Our potential killer
is Greg Patrick Walsh, 42,
531
00:22:46,566 --> 00:22:48,234
a six-foot-one former surgeon
532
00:22:48,334 --> 00:22:50,302
who got his medical start
working for
533
00:22:50,403 --> 00:22:51,738
Médecins Sans Frontières
534
00:22:51,838 --> 00:22:53,606
aiding
Central American refugees.
535
00:22:53,706 --> 00:22:55,842
Knows his knives,
knows his anatomy.
536
00:22:55,942 --> 00:22:57,644
What got him pinched?
He served five years
537
00:22:57,744 --> 00:23:00,480
for medical malpractice
when he operated on and killed
538
00:23:00,580 --> 00:23:02,715
a patient while under
the influence of narcotics.
539
00:23:02,815 --> 00:23:04,651
He was released
on parole a year ago.
540
00:23:04,751 --> 00:23:08,755
Now Dr. Death is on a murder
spree in national parks. So, uh,
541
00:23:08,855 --> 00:23:10,423
what triggered
this second career?
542
00:23:10,523 --> 00:23:12,425
If a predator gets a taste
for blood,
543
00:23:12,525 --> 00:23:14,927
then spends five years
dreaming about it?
544
00:23:15,027 --> 00:23:16,896
He might go on the hunt
once he gets out.
545
00:23:16,996 --> 00:23:18,898
Agent Winchester, turns out
you are not the only one
546
00:23:18,998 --> 00:23:20,299
who can spot a trail.
547
00:23:20,399 --> 00:23:22,134
I just found
Walsh's digital one.
548
00:23:22,234 --> 00:23:23,936
Credit card under his name
was used to check into
549
00:23:24,036 --> 00:23:26,773
a Dulles motel an hour ago,
right by the airport.
550
00:23:26,873 --> 00:23:28,040
He's making a run for it.
551
00:23:28,140 --> 00:23:30,209
Unless we get to him first.
Move out.
552
00:23:31,811 --> 00:23:33,913
Not you, Winchester.
553
00:23:34,013 --> 00:23:35,848
You and I have
superiors to notify.
554
00:23:35,948 --> 00:23:36,949
The others can handle this.
555
00:23:37,049 --> 00:23:38,350
That's my suspect.
556
00:23:38,451 --> 00:23:40,086
My house, my rules.
557
00:23:40,186 --> 00:23:42,288
So why don't you do me a solid
and break them?
558
00:23:42,388 --> 00:23:43,523
Just stand down.
559
00:23:44,524 --> 00:23:45,992
Listen to me, Gage.
560
00:23:46,092 --> 00:23:49,228
Greg Walsh is not worth
sabotaging your career for.
561
00:23:50,062 --> 00:23:53,032
Go bag us that big game, Tripsie.
562
00:23:54,501 --> 00:23:56,936
DUCKY: Well,
that's a mysterious nickname.
563
00:23:57,036 --> 00:23:58,471
Yeah, maybe
I'm overthinking it.
564
00:23:58,571 --> 00:24:00,973
Like, they went on lots of
camping trips together,
565
00:24:01,073 --> 00:24:02,942
and it could be that simple?
566
00:24:03,042 --> 00:24:05,612
Perhaps you're overthinking, period.
567
00:24:05,712 --> 00:24:07,179
It's hard not to.
568
00:24:07,279 --> 00:24:08,948
We're all working
on this case together.
569
00:24:09,048 --> 00:24:10,517
DUCKY:
Greg Walsh's profile
570
00:24:10,617 --> 00:24:13,820
as a killer is not the reason
why you invited me
571
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:14,987
for lunch.
572
00:24:15,087 --> 00:24:16,689
What's the real reason?
573
00:24:17,456 --> 00:24:20,126
I don't like to think of myself
as a jealous person,
574
00:24:20,226 --> 00:24:21,728
but, Doctor, you haven't seen
575
00:24:21,828 --> 00:24:23,395
this Agent Winchester
in the flesh.
576
00:24:23,496 --> 00:24:25,698
I mean, he's like
the walking definition
577
00:24:25,798 --> 00:24:27,600
of-of Darwinian rule.
578
00:24:27,700 --> 00:24:29,536
You're no slouch yourself.
579
00:24:29,636 --> 00:24:32,471
Thank you, but they have
a history together.
580
00:24:32,572 --> 00:24:34,440
Ah.
They trained together.
They camped together.
581
00:24:34,541 --> 00:24:36,142
They were a...
582
00:24:36,943 --> 00:24:38,010
...a they.
583
00:24:38,110 --> 00:24:40,547
And you want that "label"?
584
00:24:40,647 --> 00:24:43,115
Yeah. I do.
585
00:24:43,215 --> 00:24:44,517
Why?
586
00:24:44,617 --> 00:24:46,052
Well, I want her to know
that I'm committed to her.
587
00:24:46,152 --> 00:24:49,121
Uh, or at least to getting
to know her better.
588
00:24:49,221 --> 00:24:51,157
To earning my own nickname
for her.
589
00:24:51,257 --> 00:24:53,893
To creating your own history
with her.
590
00:24:53,993 --> 00:24:56,128
(chuckles)
Yes. Yes. Exactly.
591
00:24:56,228 --> 00:25:00,066
And does Jessica seem
equally interested
592
00:25:00,166 --> 00:25:02,034
in knowing about you?
593
00:25:03,235 --> 00:25:04,837
She does.
594
00:25:04,937 --> 00:25:06,105
She's pretty great that way.
595
00:25:06,205 --> 00:25:09,508
So, what does a label have to do
596
00:25:09,609 --> 00:25:13,045
with actions
you're both already taking?
597
00:25:15,247 --> 00:25:18,050
Pardon me, but are you
Dr. James Palmer?
598
00:25:19,218 --> 00:25:21,353
I am. Do we know each other?
599
00:25:21,453 --> 00:25:24,023
Name's Greg Walsh.
600
00:25:25,224 --> 00:25:28,961
And w-what do you want,
Mr. Walsh?
601
00:25:35,134 --> 00:25:37,503
I want you to bring me in
to NCIS.
602
00:25:50,016 --> 00:25:52,719
Let's not make a habit of
lunching with serial killers.
603
00:25:52,819 --> 00:25:54,754
Let's just get this guy
into NCIS custody.
604
00:25:54,854 --> 00:25:56,723
Remember what we discussed.
605
00:25:56,823 --> 00:25:58,625
I came to you
because your reputation
606
00:25:58,725 --> 00:26:00,459
as a physician
proceeds you.
Except unlike you,
607
00:26:00,559 --> 00:26:02,094
I uphold
the Hippocratic Oath.
608
00:26:02,194 --> 00:26:05,297
What kind of a sick game
are you playing, Walsh?
609
00:26:05,397 --> 00:26:07,166
What?
PARKER: Hey! Winchester!
610
00:26:07,266 --> 00:26:08,768
Back off.
611
00:26:08,868 --> 00:26:11,037
You're lucky I let you
out of your cage.
612
00:26:11,738 --> 00:26:13,239
He's got a fair question, though.
613
00:26:13,339 --> 00:26:14,741
Why are you surrendering?
614
00:26:14,841 --> 00:26:16,743
I'll tell you everything
once we secure me a lawyer.
615
00:26:16,843 --> 00:26:18,945
I don't see what chips you have
to bargain with.
616
00:26:19,045 --> 00:26:21,380
You have no idea
what's really going on,
617
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,249
what you're really
getting involved in.
618
00:26:23,349 --> 00:26:25,017
And you won't, unless...
(gunshots)
619
00:26:28,487 --> 00:26:29,956
(tires screeching)
620
00:26:36,562 --> 00:26:38,564
(radio chatter)
621
00:26:43,535 --> 00:26:44,570
KNIGHT:
Oh, my God, Jimmy.
622
00:26:44,671 --> 00:26:46,405
You all right? You hurt?
623
00:26:46,505 --> 00:26:47,940
I'm fine. I'm-I'm fine.
624
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:49,776
Although between today
and being held hostage here,
625
00:26:49,876 --> 00:26:52,178
I think I might find a new place
to get my tuna melts.
626
00:26:52,278 --> 00:26:54,146
(chuckles)
627
00:26:55,314 --> 00:26:58,184
Frankly, I'm more concerned
about Dr. Mallard here.
628
00:26:58,284 --> 00:27:00,386
This is ridiculous.
629
00:27:00,486 --> 00:27:02,488
Doctor, you have
a heart condition.
630
00:27:02,588 --> 00:27:04,590
I have a hunger condition.
631
00:27:04,691 --> 00:27:06,993
Before I die
of malnutrition,
632
00:27:07,093 --> 00:27:09,061
would you get me
a fresh sandwich?
633
00:27:09,161 --> 00:27:11,898
Dr. Palmer and I have
work to do.
634
00:27:13,199 --> 00:27:16,235
Suspects fled
in a black BMW 5 series.
635
00:27:16,335 --> 00:27:18,805
BOLO's out.
There's got to be 100 of those
in the district.
636
00:27:18,905 --> 00:27:21,340
You said, uh, suspects,
so plural?
637
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:22,775
Saw a shooter and driver.
638
00:27:22,875 --> 00:27:26,679
Why would "anyones," plural,
snipe our serial killer?
639
00:27:26,779 --> 00:27:29,348
I'm guessing they didn't
want Walsh talking to us.
640
00:27:29,448 --> 00:27:31,350
DUCKY:
I wonder what
he was going to say.
641
00:27:31,450 --> 00:27:32,952
And who he was so afraid of.
642
00:27:33,052 --> 00:27:34,553
GAGE:
Whatever is going on,
643
00:27:34,653 --> 00:27:36,856
serial killers don't usually
try to cut deals.
644
00:27:36,956 --> 00:27:38,424
Yeah, maybe he was just a pawn.
645
00:27:38,524 --> 00:27:40,259
Taking orders
from somebody else.
646
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:41,660
Our shooter's a pro.
647
00:27:41,761 --> 00:27:43,930
Center mass, double tap
from a moving car.
648
00:27:44,030 --> 00:27:45,732
That's a very hard shot to make.
649
00:27:45,832 --> 00:27:48,134
So whoever our guys are,
they got skills.
650
00:27:48,234 --> 00:27:51,603
All right, Winchester.
Back to NCIS for you.
651
00:27:51,704 --> 00:27:53,139
Why? Walsh is dead.
652
00:27:53,239 --> 00:27:55,441
We have new suspects now.
You still might be a target.
653
00:27:55,541 --> 00:27:57,143
Yeah, but you brought me out
here to help you arrest Walsh.
654
00:27:57,243 --> 00:27:59,545
Now I am ordering you
to support us back...
655
00:27:59,645 --> 00:28:02,148
No way, you can't...
...at our offices again.
656
00:28:05,885 --> 00:28:08,755
Okay. Back to the ranch.
657
00:28:10,723 --> 00:28:12,458
PARKER:
And the rest of us,
658
00:28:12,558 --> 00:28:13,893
let's work the scene,
659
00:28:13,993 --> 00:28:15,461
see if we can find
a connection between Walsh
660
00:28:15,561 --> 00:28:17,296
and whoever just took him out.
661
00:28:18,597 --> 00:28:20,099
(camera beeps, clicks)
662
00:28:24,436 --> 00:28:25,805
Hey, Doc.
663
00:28:26,605 --> 00:28:28,941
Agent Winchester.
How can I help you?
664
00:28:29,041 --> 00:28:30,777
How's Walsh's autopsy coming?
665
00:28:30,877 --> 00:28:33,312
I just called Agent Parker.
I just completed it.
666
00:28:33,412 --> 00:28:35,547
You are a true master
of your craft, Doc.
667
00:28:35,647 --> 00:28:38,684
Not to toot my own horn,
but, uh, I am.
668
00:28:38,785 --> 00:28:40,019
Toot away.
669
00:28:40,119 --> 00:28:41,320
Yeah?
670
00:28:42,021 --> 00:28:43,589
You ever hear of
a glandular lure?
671
00:28:43,689 --> 00:28:45,557
I'm guessing it has
something to do
672
00:28:45,657 --> 00:28:47,293
with an animal's natural odors?
673
00:28:47,393 --> 00:28:49,762
Bingo. So,
take the Rocky Mountain elk.
674
00:28:49,862 --> 00:28:51,764
A buck uses a musk lure
675
00:28:51,864 --> 00:28:54,133
to attract a doe;
but the doe,
676
00:28:54,233 --> 00:28:56,402
she spreads her own
to attract a buck.
677
00:28:56,502 --> 00:28:58,504
I'm sorry.
678
00:28:58,604 --> 00:29:00,372
Are you talking about
me and Jess?
679
00:29:00,472 --> 00:29:03,810
Mutual scents between you
and her are quite strong.
680
00:29:03,910 --> 00:29:05,511
I missed it before.
681
00:29:05,611 --> 00:29:08,680
Finally picked up on it when
she arrived outside that diner.
682
00:29:08,781 --> 00:29:10,182
What exactly are you two?
683
00:29:10,282 --> 00:29:12,551
Honestly, we're still trying
to figure that out.
684
00:29:12,651 --> 00:29:14,453
Crazy thing is,
685
00:29:14,553 --> 00:29:15,754
a male's musk is so strong,
686
00:29:15,855 --> 00:29:19,391
it often attracts
another male to its turf.
687
00:29:19,491 --> 00:29:20,526
Mm.
688
00:29:20,626 --> 00:29:22,428
You know what happens then?
689
00:29:22,528 --> 00:29:23,930
They compete for the doe.
690
00:29:24,030 --> 00:29:25,597
I came here
to solve these murders,
691
00:29:25,697 --> 00:29:28,434
but I also came
to win back Jess.
692
00:29:28,534 --> 00:29:33,039
Well, you do know that
she's not some prized animal
693
00:29:33,139 --> 00:29:35,441
to be mounted on a wall, right?
694
00:29:35,541 --> 00:29:37,076
I'm no Neanderthal, Doc.
695
00:29:37,176 --> 00:29:40,379
She can choose you, me,
or neither of us, but...
696
00:29:40,479 --> 00:29:41,713
I came to play.
697
00:29:41,814 --> 00:29:42,815
What are we playing?
698
00:29:42,915 --> 00:29:44,783
Jess, hi. You're here.
699
00:29:44,884 --> 00:29:46,385
Agent Knight, hello.
700
00:29:46,485 --> 00:29:49,388
Hmm. Okay.
701
00:29:49,488 --> 00:29:50,689
Uh, so, Parker sent me down here
702
00:29:50,789 --> 00:29:52,191
to see what you got
off the body.
703
00:29:52,291 --> 00:29:53,893
Right.
704
00:29:53,993 --> 00:29:55,962
The deceased had
unusually high cholesterol,
705
00:29:56,062 --> 00:29:58,730
which I would attribute
to a high-fat content diet
706
00:29:58,831 --> 00:30:01,567
as evidenced by
the partially digested
707
00:30:01,667 --> 00:30:03,369
rib eye steak
in his stomach.
708
00:30:03,469 --> 00:30:06,472
Also, he had a high
gallotannin count in his RBCs
709
00:30:06,572 --> 00:30:07,673
which would indicate
710
00:30:07,773 --> 00:30:09,208
that he was
a heavy red wine drinker.
711
00:30:09,308 --> 00:30:11,410
What does this have to do
with how he was killed?
712
00:30:11,510 --> 00:30:13,712
Oh, the cause of death was
two bullets to the chest,
713
00:30:13,812 --> 00:30:15,081
yes, of course.
714
00:30:15,181 --> 00:30:16,782
This is an example of
how my thorough reporting
715
00:30:16,883 --> 00:30:18,184
can uncover a whole host
716
00:30:18,284 --> 00:30:21,287
of outstanding mysteries,
such as...
717
00:30:21,387 --> 00:30:23,923
Walsh's fingertips here.
718
00:30:24,023 --> 00:30:25,958
They're coated
in some sort of odd,
719
00:30:26,058 --> 00:30:27,593
sticky, purple resin.
720
00:30:27,693 --> 00:30:28,895
(sniffs)
721
00:30:28,995 --> 00:30:30,662
You recognize something?
722
00:30:30,762 --> 00:30:32,731
Nope. Not really.
723
00:30:33,599 --> 00:30:34,666
I sent a sample to Kasie.
724
00:30:34,766 --> 00:30:36,235
We'll see what
she comes up with.
725
00:30:36,335 --> 00:30:37,636
Well...
726
00:30:37,736 --> 00:30:38,871
not my department.
727
00:30:38,971 --> 00:30:41,440
Thanks for the chat, Doc.
728
00:30:47,013 --> 00:30:49,448
(inhales sharply)
729
00:30:49,548 --> 00:30:51,017
You had a chat?
730
00:30:51,117 --> 00:30:52,784
Guy talk.
731
00:30:54,220 --> 00:30:56,222
I know we haven't
really had a chance
732
00:30:56,322 --> 00:30:58,457
to talk about my past with him.
733
00:30:58,557 --> 00:30:59,892
Yeah, uh...
734
00:30:59,992 --> 00:31:01,827
Do we need to?
735
00:31:01,928 --> 00:31:04,196
I don't know. Do we?
736
00:31:04,296 --> 00:31:06,332
Honestly, not if he's just
in your past.
737
00:31:06,432 --> 00:31:08,234
Oh, he absolutely is.
738
00:31:08,334 --> 00:31:10,436
Great.
We're good, then.
739
00:31:10,536 --> 00:31:13,472
Whatever we are.
740
00:31:15,474 --> 00:31:18,210
Yeah. All good.
741
00:31:21,813 --> 00:31:23,782
PARKER:
Okay.
742
00:31:23,882 --> 00:31:26,285
Director wants an update
on Walsh's executioners.
743
00:31:26,385 --> 00:31:28,520
First one with good news
gets dibs
744
00:31:28,620 --> 00:31:33,892
on these perfectly caramelized
Portuguese pastéis de natas.
745
00:31:33,993 --> 00:31:37,896
Yeah, I got, uh, nada
for those, uh, de natas.
746
00:31:37,997 --> 00:31:39,365
Cameras by the diner
were a bust.
747
00:31:39,465 --> 00:31:40,732
And, uh, yeah,
748
00:31:40,832 --> 00:31:42,568
nothing on the driver
and the shooter.
749
00:31:42,668 --> 00:31:44,136
No treat for you.
750
00:31:44,236 --> 00:31:45,171
McGee,
751
00:31:45,271 --> 00:31:47,073
any luck on their escape route?
752
00:31:47,173 --> 00:31:49,408
Well, I hopscotched traffic cams
for six miles,
753
00:31:49,508 --> 00:31:50,609
but then I lost them.
754
00:31:50,709 --> 00:31:51,978
No treat for you.
755
00:31:52,078 --> 00:31:54,646
Pass the pastéis
and save one for Kasie.
756
00:31:54,746 --> 00:31:56,248
'Cause she just came through.
757
00:31:56,348 --> 00:31:58,750
Yeah, did Kasie ID
the purple mystery goo
758
00:31:58,850 --> 00:31:59,918
on our dead guy's finger?
759
00:32:00,019 --> 00:32:01,720
Uh, no.
She's still working on that.
760
00:32:01,820 --> 00:32:03,755
But she did find this.
761
00:32:03,855 --> 00:32:05,024
So, what am I looking at?
762
00:32:05,124 --> 00:32:06,758
The chemical makeup
763
00:32:06,858 --> 00:32:08,327
of prop oil.
764
00:32:08,427 --> 00:32:10,596
It's a lubricant designed
for light-engine aircraft.
765
00:32:10,696 --> 00:32:12,364
And why am I looking at it?
766
00:32:12,464 --> 00:32:13,532
Kasie pulled it
767
00:32:13,632 --> 00:32:14,800
from the shooter's
shell casings.
768
00:32:14,900 --> 00:32:16,468
So whatever he used
to wipe his prints
769
00:32:16,568 --> 00:32:19,005
before loading them
was covered with prop oil.
770
00:32:19,105 --> 00:32:22,241
So Walsh's killer is also
a small-engine mechanic?
771
00:32:22,341 --> 00:32:24,676
Yeah, or maybe
a small-engine pilot.
772
00:32:24,776 --> 00:32:27,546
Well, there are dozens of, uh,
small airfields in the area.
773
00:32:27,646 --> 00:32:29,815
If our bad guys were looking
to make a getaway,
774
00:32:29,915 --> 00:32:30,983
it's a good place to start.
775
00:32:31,083 --> 00:32:32,418
Treat for you.
776
00:32:32,518 --> 00:32:33,719
Ooh.
777
00:32:33,819 --> 00:32:35,287
All right, where's Winchester?
778
00:32:35,387 --> 00:32:37,089
Let's get him to help
with the search.
779
00:32:37,189 --> 00:32:38,790
Yeah, where is he?
780
00:32:38,890 --> 00:32:41,460
I-I can usually smell
when he's around.
781
00:32:43,295 --> 00:32:44,496
What?
782
00:32:44,596 --> 00:32:46,532
He smells like morning dew
on a spruce tree.
783
00:32:46,632 --> 00:32:48,034
It's nice.
784
00:32:49,335 --> 00:32:51,570
I actually haven't seen him
all morning.
785
00:32:51,670 --> 00:32:52,671
PARKER:
Yeah, but I see
786
00:32:52,771 --> 00:32:54,406
your Spidey-sense tingling.
787
00:32:54,506 --> 00:32:57,343
Well, he was acting a little odd
in autopsy yesterday,
788
00:32:57,443 --> 00:32:59,345
but I was thinking
it was just because of Jimmy.
789
00:32:59,445 --> 00:33:00,812
But now...
790
00:33:00,912 --> 00:33:03,549
What are the chances
he's off chasing his own lead?
791
00:33:03,649 --> 00:33:06,552
(groans) Too high.
792
00:33:07,886 --> 00:33:09,955
(phone ringing)
(growling)
793
00:33:10,056 --> 00:33:11,623
(growling over phone)
GAGE: Yeah?
794
00:33:11,723 --> 00:33:13,159
Gage, where are you?
795
00:33:13,259 --> 00:33:16,195
(panting)
Not a good time, Jess!
796
00:33:16,295 --> 00:33:17,129
Gage?
797
00:33:17,229 --> 00:33:19,165
(roaring over phone)
798
00:33:19,265 --> 00:33:21,500
(line clicks, beeps)
799
00:33:29,475 --> 00:33:32,744
Here you go. Just, uh, hold
steady. Get you wrapped up.
800
00:33:32,844 --> 00:33:36,182
Well, that's something
you don't see every day.
801
00:33:37,916 --> 00:33:39,185
You okay?
802
00:33:39,285 --> 00:33:42,221
I'll live, and, uh,
you know, I dig scars.
803
00:33:42,321 --> 00:33:44,623
I hope you dig the one
you just did to your career
804
00:33:44,723 --> 00:33:46,592
with this bonehead move.
805
00:33:46,692 --> 00:33:48,627
Director wants to
permanently dismiss you
806
00:33:48,727 --> 00:33:50,262
from this investigation.
807
00:33:50,362 --> 00:33:51,497
And ISB ain't so happy
808
00:33:51,597 --> 00:33:52,731
with you, either.
809
00:33:52,831 --> 00:33:55,401
Sorry, Tripsie. I-I thought...
Don't.
810
00:33:55,501 --> 00:33:57,503
Don't Tripsie me.
811
00:33:57,603 --> 00:34:00,672
This is exactly why I couldn't
take the next step with you.
812
00:34:00,772 --> 00:34:03,275
Every time I thought that
we could actually be a "we,"
813
00:34:03,375 --> 00:34:06,512
you proved time
and time again...
814
00:34:06,612 --> 00:34:08,947
you could only ever go your way.
815
00:34:11,217 --> 00:34:13,785
You're right. (scoffs)
816
00:34:13,885 --> 00:34:16,688
I messed up. I'm sorry.
817
00:34:17,956 --> 00:34:19,024
PARKER: All right,
let's hear it, Mr. Hero.
818
00:34:19,125 --> 00:34:21,193
What's this lead
you've been chasing
819
00:34:21,293 --> 00:34:22,494
by yourself?
820
00:34:22,594 --> 00:34:24,663
The purple stains
on Walsh's fingers...
821
00:34:24,763 --> 00:34:26,265
You did recognize them.
822
00:34:26,365 --> 00:34:29,000
They're from the aster
oblongifolius flower.
823
00:34:29,101 --> 00:34:30,669
They're late bloomers
to a specific area
824
00:34:30,769 --> 00:34:32,804
of the park
this time of year.
825
00:34:32,904 --> 00:34:34,773
You were trying to find
Walsh's camp.
826
00:34:34,873 --> 00:34:37,309
Thought you could find something
there that could, uh,
827
00:34:37,409 --> 00:34:38,877
ID the men
who eliminated him.
828
00:34:38,977 --> 00:34:41,780
Long shot, I know,
and, yeah, it was a dead end.
829
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,283
On the way back,
I ran into Smokey over here.
830
00:34:44,383 --> 00:34:45,884
This beast just charged me
out of nowhere.
831
00:34:45,984 --> 00:34:48,287
I thought bears
rarely attack humans.
832
00:34:48,387 --> 00:34:50,055
They don't.
833
00:34:50,156 --> 00:34:52,258
It's like this one's possessed
or something.
834
00:34:52,358 --> 00:34:53,659
Well, smart of you to run
835
00:34:53,759 --> 00:34:55,494
towards the nearest
park ranger station.
836
00:34:55,594 --> 00:34:57,763
They saved my damn life.
837
00:34:57,863 --> 00:34:59,931
Took three trank darts
to bring this guy down.
838
00:35:00,766 --> 00:35:02,468
How many does it normally take?
839
00:35:02,568 --> 00:35:04,636
I haven't seen it take
more than one.
840
00:35:04,736 --> 00:35:06,605
Kind of reminded me of...
An addict?
841
00:35:06,705 --> 00:35:08,274
High on PCP?
842
00:35:08,374 --> 00:35:09,941
The ones where it takes about
843
00:35:10,041 --> 00:35:12,211
a dozen rounds
to stop them?
Yeah.
844
00:35:12,311 --> 00:35:15,747
We need to swab this bear's
saliva and get it to Kasie ASAP.
845
00:35:15,847 --> 00:35:17,716
You want us to collect
bear spit?
846
00:35:17,816 --> 00:35:20,252
I'm not asking you
to French kiss him.
847
00:35:20,352 --> 00:35:21,787
You want to solve this case,
848
00:35:21,887 --> 00:35:23,955
or do you want to stand around
and stare at each other?
849
00:35:30,662 --> 00:35:32,864
Am I right?
850
00:35:32,964 --> 00:35:37,203
Yep. Your bear just tested
positive for cocaine.
851
00:35:37,303 --> 00:35:39,738
Cocaine Bear rides again!
852
00:35:40,906 --> 00:35:42,073
What, you haven't heard the tale
853
00:35:42,174 --> 00:35:44,510
of the legendary
"Pablo Escobear"?
854
00:35:44,610 --> 00:35:45,711
In the '80s,
855
00:35:45,811 --> 00:35:47,246
this drug-smuggler pilot,
856
00:35:47,346 --> 00:35:50,382
he dropped like 70 pounds
of cocaine into some forest.
857
00:35:50,482 --> 00:35:51,850
And then,
his partner was supposed to
858
00:35:51,950 --> 00:35:53,419
hike in and
pick up the blow,
859
00:35:53,519 --> 00:35:55,254
but a bear found it first.
860
00:35:55,354 --> 00:35:56,988
Pablo Escobear. Yeah, cute.
861
00:35:57,088 --> 00:35:58,857
You think we got a sequel
on our hands?
862
00:35:58,957 --> 00:36:00,592
It's a good bet that, uh,
863
00:36:00,692 --> 00:36:02,761
Walsh's shooter knows
how to fly a plane.
864
00:36:02,861 --> 00:36:04,563
Well, that would explain
the airplane oil
865
00:36:04,663 --> 00:36:05,631
on the shell casings.
866
00:36:05,731 --> 00:36:07,132
And an even better bet is,
867
00:36:07,233 --> 00:36:09,401
based on how high
Smokey here is,
868
00:36:09,501 --> 00:36:12,871
he's been dropping cocaine
all over our national parks.
869
00:36:12,971 --> 00:36:15,841
And it was Walsh's job
to hike in and pick it up.
870
00:36:15,941 --> 00:36:18,009
Walsh must've ran into
our petty officer
871
00:36:18,109 --> 00:36:20,045
and didn't want to leave
any witnesses behind.
872
00:36:20,145 --> 00:36:21,913
But why would Walsh
stay in the park
873
00:36:22,013 --> 00:36:24,082
after the murder?
Probably still looking
874
00:36:24,182 --> 00:36:25,417
for the drugs.
875
00:36:25,517 --> 00:36:27,085
He didn't realize
the bear got to them first.
876
00:36:27,185 --> 00:36:29,355
And when he couldn't find them,
he surrendered to us.
877
00:36:29,455 --> 00:36:31,523
He knew that his partners would
try to take him out.
878
00:36:31,623 --> 00:36:32,991
KASIE:
They sound like lovely people.
879
00:36:33,091 --> 00:36:35,427
Any time you want to
arrest them is fine by me.
880
00:36:35,527 --> 00:36:36,828
We got to find them first.
881
00:36:36,928 --> 00:36:38,697
And I know how.
882
00:36:40,499 --> 00:36:41,967
The purple asters.
883
00:36:44,370 --> 00:36:47,138
This is the field where
the asters are still in bloom.
884
00:36:48,707 --> 00:36:52,043
You may have noticed...
They're not far
from an RV camping area.
885
00:36:53,279 --> 00:36:56,415
You thinking our drug smugglers
are using an RV to blend in?
886
00:36:56,515 --> 00:36:59,117
There's got to be hundreds of
RVs that were in the area.
887
00:36:59,217 --> 00:37:00,652
Who knows where
it could be now?
888
00:37:00,752 --> 00:37:01,953
McGEE:
Punch in to where, uh,
889
00:37:02,053 --> 00:37:03,655
Gage had the encounter
with that bear.
890
00:37:03,755 --> 00:37:05,223
All right,
that has to be
891
00:37:05,324 --> 00:37:07,092
the rough drop zone
for the coke.
892
00:37:07,192 --> 00:37:08,827
McGEE:
It's also rough terrain.
893
00:37:08,927 --> 00:37:10,095
If I wanted to get
into that park,
894
00:37:10,195 --> 00:37:12,764
get drugs, get out quickly... ATV.
895
00:37:26,478 --> 00:37:27,846
Federal agents!
896
00:37:29,648 --> 00:37:30,982
(bar clatters)
897
00:37:35,220 --> 00:37:36,988
Clear.
898
00:37:42,060 --> 00:37:44,530
Well, we found the haul,
but no sign of who's hauling.
899
00:37:44,630 --> 00:37:46,432
(entry bell chimes)
900
00:37:52,804 --> 00:37:54,139
Hey there, boys.
901
00:37:55,073 --> 00:37:56,975
Buy you some more Caf-Pows?
902
00:38:01,012 --> 00:38:03,415
More than 30 kilos of
cocaine were recovered.
903
00:38:03,515 --> 00:38:07,118
Save whatever your furry
forest friend consumed.
904
00:38:07,218 --> 00:38:09,388
You get IDs on the smugglers?
905
00:38:09,488 --> 00:38:11,222
Mateo Romero, Quique Morales.
906
00:38:11,323 --> 00:38:14,693
They were former Special Forces
with the Guatemalan Army.
907
00:38:14,793 --> 00:38:16,061
We think Walsh
hooked up with them
908
00:38:16,161 --> 00:38:18,296
during his "good doctor"
days in Central America?
909
00:38:18,397 --> 00:38:20,466
He also got himself hooked
on their product.
910
00:38:20,566 --> 00:38:24,703
He decided to open a
drug-running practice with them.
911
00:38:24,803 --> 00:38:26,538
DEA's on their way.
912
00:38:26,638 --> 00:38:28,340
They're hoping
to use them to catch
913
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,342
the next bigger fish
in the trafficking world.
914
00:38:30,442 --> 00:38:32,778
Just glad to get their poison
out of my parks.
915
00:38:32,878 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaking of your parks,
916
00:38:34,380 --> 00:38:36,382
I put in a call
to your superiors,
917
00:38:36,482 --> 00:38:38,917
and I told them
how cooperative you were
918
00:38:39,017 --> 00:38:40,986
in solving this case.
919
00:38:41,086 --> 00:38:43,555
Without you, we wouldn't
have found the bear.
920
00:38:43,655 --> 00:38:45,056
Thank you.
921
00:38:45,156 --> 00:38:46,458
You know,
I've got some pull
922
00:38:46,558 --> 00:38:47,993
with the NPS bureaucracy.
923
00:38:48,093 --> 00:38:50,562
Might be able to get you
taken off their naughty list.
924
00:38:51,363 --> 00:38:53,064
As long as you promise
to steer clear
925
00:38:53,164 --> 00:38:55,000
of any western snowy plovers.
926
00:38:55,100 --> 00:38:57,369
Maybe we should all steer clear
of each other
927
00:38:57,469 --> 00:38:58,937
in the future?
928
00:39:00,872 --> 00:39:02,608
I hate the city anyway.
929
00:39:02,708 --> 00:39:04,410
Good luck to you.
930
00:39:04,510 --> 00:39:06,044
Thank you.
931
00:39:13,151 --> 00:39:16,021
Cocaine bear.
Yeah, dude, Pablo Escobear.
932
00:39:16,121 --> 00:39:18,223
Got to say, Knight definitely
traded up, huh?
933
00:39:18,323 --> 00:39:19,758
Especially in
the ab department.
934
00:39:19,858 --> 00:39:21,126
Damn, Jimmy.
935
00:39:21,226 --> 00:39:22,327
Right?
936
00:39:22,428 --> 00:39:24,463
(phone beeping)
937
00:39:24,563 --> 00:39:26,364
It's about that time.
938
00:39:26,465 --> 00:39:29,367
Oh, that's right, your big date
with the school luncheon dad.
939
00:39:29,468 --> 00:39:30,769
Don't call it a date.
940
00:39:30,869 --> 00:39:33,772
And yes, uh, Max Lautner
will be here any moment.
941
00:39:33,872 --> 00:39:36,442
What, you invited him here
for lunch?
942
00:39:36,542 --> 00:39:38,309
He insisted on a tour.
943
00:39:38,410 --> 00:39:40,211
Well, I know you hate it,
but, uh,
944
00:39:40,311 --> 00:39:41,780
think about it
like community outreach.
945
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:43,048
You're doing a good thing.
946
00:39:43,148 --> 00:39:45,984
I just hope
he doesn't order dessert.
947
00:39:46,952 --> 00:39:48,987
Agent Torres?
Yeah?
948
00:39:49,087 --> 00:39:51,289
Uh, how can I help you?
Hi.
949
00:39:51,389 --> 00:39:52,458
I'm Max.
950
00:39:52,558 --> 00:39:54,092
(chuckles):
You're...
951
00:39:54,192 --> 00:39:55,894
You're Max Lautner?
952
00:39:55,994 --> 00:39:58,530
Well, Maxine, but I prefer Max.
953
00:39:58,630 --> 00:40:00,666
It is so nice to meet
a live action hero
954
00:40:00,766 --> 00:40:02,400
like you in person.
955
00:40:02,501 --> 00:40:03,935
Oh, yes, well...
956
00:40:04,035 --> 00:40:06,605
Thank you, yes, of course,
and I'm just
957
00:40:06,705 --> 00:40:08,440
so grateful that you're, uh...
958
00:40:08,540 --> 00:40:09,775
you.
959
00:40:09,875 --> 00:40:12,110
Well, as a single mum,
960
00:40:12,210 --> 00:40:13,879
I don't get out very much,
961
00:40:13,979 --> 00:40:16,047
but I, uh,
I cleared my day for this.
962
00:40:16,147 --> 00:40:18,450
Well, that's wonderful news.
963
00:40:18,550 --> 00:40:20,719
Uh, if-if Parker asks,
964
00:40:20,819 --> 00:40:21,887
I'm going to
take a long lunch.
965
00:40:21,987 --> 00:40:23,889
Follow me this way.
966
00:40:29,728 --> 00:40:31,296
I come bearing bento boxes.
967
00:40:31,396 --> 00:40:33,832
Have you eaten lunch yet?
I have not.
968
00:40:33,932 --> 00:40:35,300
That's very kind of you.
969
00:40:36,101 --> 00:40:37,903
I was also asked
to give you this.
970
00:40:38,003 --> 00:40:39,237
It's from Gage.
971
00:40:39,337 --> 00:40:41,172
He's headed to
the airport to go home.
972
00:40:41,272 --> 00:40:42,508
Oh.
973
00:40:42,608 --> 00:40:45,076
I was super tempted to look,
but I restrained.
974
00:40:45,176 --> 00:40:48,146
Yeah, he's just saying goodbye.
975
00:40:49,314 --> 00:40:50,982
I'm pretty sure I...
(sniffs)
976
00:40:51,082 --> 00:40:53,418
Yeah, that's-that's written
in campfire ash.
977
00:40:53,519 --> 00:40:54,720
(both laugh)
978
00:40:54,820 --> 00:40:57,689
Uh, so... Tripsie?
979
00:40:57,789 --> 00:40:59,124
You gonna give me
a hint on that one,
980
00:40:59,224 --> 00:41:00,258
or you gonna make me guess?
981
00:41:00,358 --> 00:41:02,494
It is short for "Triple Z."
982
00:41:02,594 --> 00:41:04,996
As in Scrabble. Oh.
983
00:41:05,096 --> 00:41:08,233
Because I am queen
of using the ten-point "Z"
984
00:41:08,333 --> 00:41:09,835
on a triple-letter,
triple-word score.
985
00:41:09,935 --> 00:41:12,003
(chuckles) Well, you are gonna
have some competition
986
00:41:12,103 --> 00:41:15,006
because I am
a Scrabble board savant.
987
00:41:15,106 --> 00:41:17,576
Color me eager
to kick your B-U-T-T.
988
00:41:17,676 --> 00:41:19,177
(both laugh)
989
00:41:21,012 --> 00:41:24,382
Maybe at our spa weekend away?
990
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,089
Yeah.
991
00:41:32,591 --> 00:41:33,892
Jess.
992
00:41:34,993 --> 00:41:36,528
I was being selfish before,
993
00:41:36,628 --> 00:41:39,297
about needing to put,
like, a label on this.
994
00:41:39,397 --> 00:41:41,232
No, you don't need to apologize
for that.
995
00:41:41,332 --> 00:41:43,869
No, I... I was making it
all about me.
996
00:41:43,969 --> 00:41:47,505
And labels don't matter.
997
00:41:48,807 --> 00:41:51,309
All that matters is you.
998
00:41:55,614 --> 00:41:57,315
Come here, you.
