[pilot] Teakettle Base,
this is Choctaw 6-3-1.
Range time, 20 seconds.

-How we looking, Lieutenant?
-Right on the numbers, sir.

Accelerating
to 600 knots.

[pilot] Teakettle Base, this is
6-3-1, over the gate.

Commencing the first high-angle
attack maneuver in ten seconds.

[Control]
Roger, Commander.

Let's see what this
modified bird can do.

Turn on your data recorder,
Lieutenant.

Aye, sir.

Here we go,
Lieutenant.

Control, commencing pull up...

now.

Lost the port engine, too.

Teakettle Base,
departing controlled flight.

Initiate engine restart
procedures.

Attempting restart.

Come on.

Come on...

Control, we got a relight.

Oh, yeah.

Not bad.

Piece of cake, Sandy.

Yeah, I know.

You can't believe
we get paid to do this.

I must be getting predictable.

Anything but, Scotty.

Nice save, Scott.

Had you worried, Harm?

Last flat-out spin I was
in, I had to punch out.

Lieutenant,
meet Commander Rabb.

We flew together
in the Gulf.

This is
Lieutenant Winters.

-Nice to meet you, Lieutenant.
-Nice to meet you, Commander.

Harm's taking on
flight duties here

for personnel
who've been deployed.

Just some chase plane duty.
Nothing exciting.

The lieutenant
has agreed

to take a backseat for you.

Any friend
of the commander's, sir.

Commander Webster.

Captain Garland,
Pax River JAG, sent me.

A copy of charges
against you

alleging you fraternized
with Lieutenant Winters.

Until this matter
is resolved,

you will be relieved
of all duties.

[opening theme playing]

Hey, I called you
three times last night.

Sorry, I wouldn't have been
very good company.

Scott, you're being
relieved of duty,

not banished.

Doesn't feel that way.

You know, nothing happened
between the lieutenant
and myself.

And it's not that we weren't
attracted to each other.

I mean, if you'd been hanging
with us, you would have assumed

something was going on.

You can't be tried
on assumptions, Scott.

No, but you can be destroyed
by them.

Since when did you
become a defeatist?

When I couldn't beat
Helen's cancer.

She, uh...

God, she hated this picture.

She always said that the outfit
made her look heavy.

See the way her fingers
are resting on my shoulder?

I could feel them there,
like that,

for months after she died.

I need the house key.
I lost mine.

You, uh...

You going to be home
when I get there?

Doubt it.

Bill, we got to talk.

-I'll just leave it
under the mat.
-Bill...

He hasn't said a word
to me since yesterday.

He believes the charges
and he thinks I betrayed
the memory of his mother.

He's a teenager, Scott.

Well, that wouldn't
be much of a problem

if I had been around more
when he was growing up.

Being deployed so often, it
was Helen who raised him.

We were just getting
to know each other.

Yesterday was the first day

I felt he was
actually proud of me.

Has JAG assigned you
a lawyer yet?

I don't know.
I haven't heard.

Let me speak to them, okay?

You have somebody in mind?

Yeah, an old friend of yours.

[elevator bell dings]

Hey, cutie!

Daddy!

Hi, sweetie.

How'd you know we'd be here?

Because I know
you, Isabel.

-Hey, you want to
get some fries?
-Mm-hmm.

-Yeah?
-Come on, honey.

Isabel.

-Whoa! Oh, excuse me.
-Lieutenant,

I want to
request sanctuary.

-I'm sorry?
-For my daughter and me.

My wife is
overreacting, Lieutenant.

-You know how it is.
-We're not married.

We've been legally
separated for months.

-What's
the complaint, ma'am?
-Physical abuse.

-He broke her arm.
-Absolutely false.

Okay, sir, I am going
to have them come with me.

For the time being.

Now, of course, you
have legal recourse.

-You can get in touch...
-I-I'm aware of my options,
Lieutenant.

I'm an attorney.

You love me, sweetie?

Yeah.

Me, too.

Ma'am, this way.

[woman laughing]

Hey.

-Hello.
-Hello.

Commander Rabb's a
friend of my dad's.

They used to fly together
in the Gulf of Sidra.

This is Monica.

She's my, uh...
French tutor.

Bill.

-Sorry.
-It's a pleasure.

You have no idea.

Don't listen to him.

My dad okay?

Well, you know,
it's not his best day, Bill.

No.

You know anything about this?

Only what I see.

And what's that?

The way they look at each other.

Well, you know, Bill,
that's not proof of anything.

We got to go.

[Garland]
Admiral Blackstone referred
the court-martial charges.

As Pax River Staff Judge
Advocate, I cleared it

with the Trial Services Office,
and I'll be prosecuting.

Here's your discovery,
Commander.

Four witness statements.

Who filed the initial
complaint, Captain?

Anonymous call
to the 800 hot line.

Inquiry is required on
potentially credible complaints.

Most of them go nowhere.

This one panned out.

You're welcome to use my office
to confer with your client.

Thank you, sir.

-I used to be his friend.
-[door closes]

Now I'm your client.

Well, keep your
chin up, Scott.

We're just
getting started.

Now let's have a seat.

-Have they got anything?
-Well, seems pretty vague

except for this testimony
from a Lieutenant Man-tee.

Mantei.

He's one of
my test pilots.

What should I know?

Well, he recently
requested a transfer

to the Joint Strike
Fighter project.

I refused. I recommended
Lieutenant Winters instead,

and he said I was favoring her.

Were you?

-[scoffs] You know
me better than that.
-I do,

but when
Captain Garland asks you
the same question on the stand,

you're going to need
a better answer than that.

-You're right.
-He's also going to ask you

if you transferred
Lieutenant Winters
out of your chain of command

so that you could act openly
on your attraction to her.

That's not why I promoted her.

But the thought did come
to mind.

-Here you go.
-What does it say?

"Big hug, Barney."

Barney?

Yeah. Don't ask me
to sing.

[MacKenzie]
Only your base CO can issue

a Title 18 bar letter,
Lieutenant.

Can you help me
with that, ma'am?

Do you have
a legitimate complaint?

Abuse of both myself
and our daughter, ma'am.

Are you sure you're not
running from a bad marriage?

-You think I'm making this up,
Colonel?
-I don't know yet.

Well, until you do, can you give
us the benefit of the doubt?

[sighs]

Has your husband hit you
recently, Lieutenant?

He hit Katelyn, ma'am.
He broke her arm.

-Were you there
when it happened?
-No, but...

What did your daughter
have to say about it?

That it was an accident.

But only because she's
too young to believe

that her father would
hurt her intentionally.

Lieutenant, without proof
of immediate danger

to you or your child,
an argument for a bar letter

and sanctuary
will be a tough sell.

Colonel, my husband has
an uncontrollable temper,

especially when he gets
frustrated.

When Katelyn was a baby,
he threw her in the crib

because he couldn't make her
stop crying.

He was three feet away
from the crib at that time.

All right.

Let me see what I can do.

Thank you.

Who's your husband's attorney?

Himself.

Really?

That's Seth.

[Katelyn laughing]

Is she afraid of sleeping alone?

Yes, she is.
How do you know that, ma'am?

[dog barking in distance]

Uh, just, uh,
give me a minute, will you?

Sure.

Let's get right
into this, huh?

I'm going to need you to tell me
all about your relationship
with Lieutenant Winters.

Any public physical contact
you might have had--

a congratulatory kiss,

a good night peck.

Anything that might be
construed...

Scott?

I'm going to need you
to stay with me.

-I'm sorry, Harm.
-Sure.

I, uh, I assumed Bill
would be back by now.

You know, I saw Bill in the
base parking lot with a girl.

What girl?

Well, he said
she was his French tutor.

I didn't know he had one.

[chuckling]

I'm not so sure he does.

Oh, I see.

Is there something
you want to talk about?

No, no. We got...
bigger holes to patch.

Anyway, wh-what were
you asking me before?

Uh, about your public
and private relationship

with Lieutenant Winters.

What do you mean by private?

Well, letters

you might have written, e-mails.

No, nothing
damaging.

You mind
if I check your computer?

Why?

Well, the government is likely

to want to take a look
in your personal e-mails.

I'd like to see what's in there
before they do.

-Knock yourself out.
-[phone ringing]

Why don't I start
with that?

Okay.

Yes?

This is he.

Where is he now?

Oh, thank you, Sergeant.

I'll... Yeah,
I'll come right over.

Bill was, uh,
just picked up for speeding.

And evading arrest.

-You want me to go with you?
-No, no.

I don't want to drag you
any further into my life, Harm.

You just, uh...
do what you got to do.

I'll be right back.

[door closes]

[car door closes,
engine starting]

[car accelerating]

"We are pleased
you're considering acquiring

a sample of stealth coating
for the sum of $50,000"?

[Webster]
Bill, come back here, son.

[Bill]
I don't want to talk about it!

How about we finish
that six-pack?

How about you have
a seat, Scott?

What project are you
currently working on?

Uh, we're developing
a stealth coating

that won't degrade
so the jets can operate
from the carriers.

Well, what are these?

This is e-mail from
a company called Siecle Tech.

They're pleased you're
considering acquiring

a sample of
stealth coating for them.

They're willing to give you
$50,000 upon delivery.

No, I've never seen
these before, Harm.

They've been read, Scott.

I got them out of
the delete bin in your computer.

The last one
is dated this morning.

Well, what do these have
to do with my trial?

They might have something
to do with your next trial.

Are you accusing me of selling
classified technology?

I'm asking questions.

You have answers?

Not for you.

No? How about for NCIS?

Oh, you'd actually
call them?

What planet are living on?

Harm, you're misreading this.

I found a loan application
on your computer.

I wouldn't have to take out
a loan

if I was selling
government secrets.

Where's the stealth coating,
Scott?

Where it always has been.

The base...
in the lockup.

You were considering it.

No.

They got back to you
three times.

Call NCIS.

-I can't do that.
-Why not?

You have to trust me
on this, Harm.

Call them, or I will!

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Wait a minute.

I'm your client.

Isn't any communication
between us

-protected information?
-Not if you're planning

the future commission
of a crime, it isn't.

Well, I'm not.
And you can't prove that I am.

Harm, without evidence
you could be prosecuted

for abusing attorney-client
privilege. You could be
disbarred.

[MacKenzie]
Not only can't you turn in
this hypothetical client,

you still have to defend
him on the frat charge

unless the judge
let's you off the case.

What if I've already asked
and was told that I can't

because the trial
is too close?

Then you're stuck.

And so I get him off,
he goes back to work

with unlimited access
to sensitive material.

-Does he?
-Why wouldn't he?

Harm, you didn't drive
75 miles at this hour

to pose "what if"
questions.

You know the law
as well as I do.

No, I came here
for the bad coffee

and to catch you
in your pajamas.

If you're thinking about
breaching confidentiality,
forget it.

It's a career-ender.

Mac, we're talking
about national security.

Didn't you say he hasn't
actually done anything?

So, what about the next time
he's tempted?

I mean,
how do we guard against that?

You can't. But you have
to have clear evidence

a crime
is about to be committed.

Stop looking for
a magic bullet.

Have you always been
this annoying?

Isn't that why you came here?

Ooh, the puppy's
tongue is blue.

Is he cold? Is
that a cold puppy?

Sweetie, all we had
was orange juice.

-Is that okay?
-Uh-huh.

Okay.

-A little person.
-What's she doing here?

[Roberts] Oh, waiting
for her mother.

Can that happen someplace else?

She's not causing
any trouble, Lieutenant.

[exhales sharply] I need these
notes transcribed.

[yelling]

-Oh... oh, no.
-[chuckles]

-No, oh...
-[Chegwidden] Lieutenant Sims,
where's the gunny?

Uh, he asked
for the day off, sir.

Where'd this child
come from?

Her mother's in
with Colonel MacKenzie, sir.

She shouldn't be here, sir.

I was trying
to remove her.

Hi, I'm A.J.

Hi.

[Chegwidden laughs]

Do something about
that uniform, Lieutenant.

Scott, I think you
should tell the judge
you want another lawyer.

Why?

You know why.

Do you believe
that I'm innocent?

On the fraternization charge,
maybe.

Then I still want you
to represent me.

You may have your doubts about
me, but I have none about you.

Well, you should.

I'm not worried.

It's not in you
to let a client down.

Well, that's all you are
to me now...

a client.

[Garland] Lieutenant Mantei,
why do you think

Commander Webster chose
Lieutenant Winters over you

for the Joint Strike
Fighter Program?

Objection. Calls for an
opinion, Your Honor.

-Sustained.
-I'll rephrase.

-Were you surprised
by that action?
-No, sir.

Commander Webster
and Lieutenant Winters are...

-very close.
-How close?

[Mantei] There's a bar
in Lexington Park
called the Chase Plane.

Last month, I saw them kissing
in a rear booth.

Thank you.

Nothing further.

Lieutenant, how many times
did you see them kiss?

-Once.
-Are you aware
that the date in question

-was Lieutenant Winters'
birthday?
-No, sir, I wasn't.

Isn't it possible,
Lieutenant, that what you saw

was Commander Webster
giving the lieutenant

a congratulatory kiss?

It wasn't that kind
of a kiss, sir.

You had to be helped
into a cab

by your friends that night,
didn't you, Lieutenant?

I'd had a few drinks, sir.

A lot. The bartender says
you ran up quite a tab.

Do you deny it?

-No, sir.
-So why should we believe

you even saw them kissing
to begin with, Lieutenant?

-Objection. Argumentative.
-[Judge] Sustained.

[Rabb] You ran an aircraft
off the runway
last year, didn't you?

-Objection. Relevance?
-Your Honor, the government
raised the issue

of Lieutenant Mantei's record
as a pilot earlier.

That's right.
You opened the door, Captain.

Answer the question, Lieutenant.

Yes, sir,
I did go off the runway.

Isn't this why
you were passed over
for the J.S.F. program?

No, sir.

That was considered a mishap.

Didn't this mishap occur,
Lieutenant,

when you misread your altimeter
on a night landing?

Similar things have happened
to other pilots, sir.

Really? Did it happen
to Lieutenant Winters?

Not that I know of, sir.

Thank you.
Nothing further.

Redirect, Your Honor?

Lieutenant, what ranking did
Commander Webster give you

on your last fitness report?

One out of four, sir.

And for the record,
is that high?

-The highest, sir.
-No more questions.

I believe Lieutenant Maat's
story, Bud, I just don't know
how to prove it.

Well, I thought you had it all
worked out, ma'am, that's why

you asked the admiral to
represent her in family court.

I was going on instinct,
hoping I'd be able to fashion a
strategy

as things moved forward.

Well, I'm sure
you will, ma'am.

Well, let me tell you
what I don't have.

Direct evidence,
access to prior acts

and an unshakable
principle witness.

Well, what about
an expert witness, ma'am?

-Any suggestions?
-Sure, Dr. Beth Salluci.

-The feminist?
-Sure, but she's also

the child abuse expert,
lives in D.C.,

and Harriet and I met her
last month at a fund-raiser.

I've drawn Judge Merriweather,
Bud.

Male and conservative.

Well, I still have her card
if you change your mind.

Thanks.

Why did you let Captain Garland
bring up the fitness
reports on redirect?

There was nothing
I could do.

That's an excuse, Harm.

So fire me.

I will... if I think
you're throwing this.

Forget I said that.

I feel like we need
a witness as strong as Mantei.

So get me one.

What about my son?

Things have changed.
He's come around.

Since when?

Recently.
We talked.

I have his support now.

What would he say?

My father and Lieutenant Winters
were just friends, that's it.

I could tell they liked each
other but it was never
anything more than that.

Did you ever see them
kiss or touch each other

-in your presence?
-[Bill] No.

Did Lieutenant Winters ever
spend the night at your house?

No.

How long has it been, Bill,
since your mother died?

Eleven months.

Has your father ever
dated in this time?

He hasn't been interested.

Do you think
he's still mourning your mother.

Definitely.

How did you feel
when you heard

that your father had been
charged with fraternization?

I was mad.

For lots of reasons.

Especially because of my mother.

Then when I thought
about it,

I realized it was crazy.
It didn't make any sense.

In what way?

Because my father's whole life
has been by the book.

I mean, my biggest thing
with him has always been to...

"Loosen up, Dad.
They're just rules."

And he would always say
the same thing.

"If I didn't make 'em,
I won't break 'em."

My dad's the straightest arrow
in the navy.

[Rabb]
Thank you.

Nothing further.

No questions, Your Honor.

You can step down, son.

Commander Webster served
his country in the Persian Gulf.

His record
is not merely unblemished,

it is distinguished.

The commander is a true patriot
who has dedicated his life

to the service of his country.

Anyone who thinks
that Commander Webster

would do anything
to sully this fine record,

or to betray the trust
and love of his son...

...or his country,
does not know him.

I've read into the record
statements from men and women
who served with the commander.

He's revered by all
because he is a fair-minded
and compassionate leader.

Ironically, the qualities
that have made the commander
so beloved

have also made him a target.

His humanity and caring
have been misconstrued

and made to look tawdry
by one bitter individual.

The commander
has crossed no boundary.

Given the opportunity
to serve again,

Commander Webster will prove

that he is worthy
of the uniform he wears.

Commander Scott Webster,
United States Navy,

this court finds you
on the charge and specification
of fraternization

not guilty.

[Judge]
This court is dismissed.

[gavel bangs]

[MacKenzie]
Your wife has agreed
to supervised visitations.

It's not acceptable.

Isabel is being vindictive
and aggressive.

[scoffs] Why should I believe
that this behavior will change?

It's not about Isabel,
it's about Katelyn.

Who I miss desperately.

Then why would you risk
losing her altogether?

I'm not going to lose, Colonel.

You have an evidentiary deficit.

I have seven character witnesses
who will testify

to the quality of
my relationship
with my daughter.

One of them is Isabel's sister.

Do you have a counter?

I retain custody.

-Isabel can take her
on weekends.
-Won't happen.

-Fine.
-Mr. Maat...

I think you broke Katelyn's arm,
and I think you did it
deliberately.

Bud.

Make that call.

[Rabb]
Where's Lieutenant Winters?

You're RIO's out on the
flight line pre-flighting.

I'll talk to you from
the command center.

You still think I'm going
to try to sell this stuff?

I'm the same guy
you flewwith, Harm.

Funny, I don't recognize you.

Teakettle Base,
this is Choctaw 6-3-1
turning inbound from first run.

[pilot] Teakettle Base,
this is Choctaw test vehicle.
How do you read me?

[Webster]
Loud and clear, Choctaw test.

6-3-1, this is Teakettle Base,
standing by.

[Winters]
Beginning checklist.

-Radar normal.
-Check.

-Radar altimeter, stand by.
-Check.

-RAWS gear on?
-Check.

-Transponder in standby mode.
-Check.

Teakettle Base, this is 6-3-1,
checklist complete.

Roger. Be advised you have
one radar blip on the scope.

We are not painting
the stealth plane at all.

[pilot]
This is Choctaw test vehicle.

Commencing starboard turn
in ten seconds.

Chase in position.

No return, looking good.

[pilot] Reversing to port
in ten seconds.

In position.

[pilot] Rolling out.
Will commence climb in ten.

[Rabb]
Roger, test vehicle.

[pilot]
This is Choctaw test vehicle.

Scraping the ceiling
at Angels 5-0.

[Rabb]
Chase plane at Angels 5-0.

I got your six, Choctaw.

We never painted you,
Choctaw test vehicle.

Test complete, return to base.

[pilot] Roger, Base.
Test vehicle out.

[Rabb]
Teakettle Base,
this is Choctaw 6-3-1.

Request permission to do
a speed run on the way home.

That's not your flight plan,
6-3-1.

Since when did you care
about breaking rules?

I'll see you on the ground,
6-3-1.

Going to Zone Five, Lieutenant.

Yes, sir.

[sonic boom]

-Something wrong, sir?
-Why would you say that,
Lieutenant?

I don't know, sir.
I just got the feeling you
were really angry up there.

Has Commander Webster
been talking to you?

No, sir, not specifically but he
hasn't really been himself.

I thought it was
the security breach.

What security breach?

Oh, I can't talk about
it, sir-- classified.

Does this have anything to do
with the commander's project?

Yes, sir. Is there something
I should know, sir?

Not at the moment,
Lieutenant.

Ensign, is Commander Webster in?

-No, sir.
-Damn.

-I needed to get a file.
-Which one, sir?

Uh, Lieutenant Winters
gave it to the commander.

Oh, right.
That's classified, sir--

"Need to know."

I'm cleared.
You can check.

Yes, sir.
I'd have to verify that.

Would tomorrow
be all right, sir?

Yeah... Yeah, tomorrow
would be fine.

I have another
chase plane milk run.

Dull flying, sir?

You have no idea.

At least you made a lot
of noise today, Commander.

-You heard that, huh?
-I think you cracked
a window, sir.

Uh-huh.
[blowing]

Sir.

Why don't you just
take the report now?

[MacKenzie] Dr. Salluci,
have you observed signs

of psychological trauma
in Katelyn Maat?

Yes, I have. Traumatized
children react in one of two
ways.

They become withdrawn,
or they act out.

-And how has Katelyn reacted?
-She acts out.

She's begun hitting
other children in preschool,

defying her teachers,
breaking toys,
that sort of thing.

-Did you notice other signs?
-Her art is very telling.

When I worked with her,
she drew disturbing pictures.

Ones that showed
children in jeopardy.

We see those kinds of pictures
drawn by victims of physical
abuse.

Is there anything else
indicative of abuse
in these pictures,

Doctor?

When Katelyn draws herself,
the figure is very small.

It's dwarfed by all the other
figures in the picture.

This indicates feelings

of fear, or helplessness.

So, there isreason
to think her father

-is physically abusing her.
-In my opinion, yes.

Thank you.
Nothing further.

Your witness, Mr. Maat.

[clearing throat]

Dr. Salluci,
Lieutenant Maat indicated

that Katelyn's behavior
changed eight months ago.

That's correct.

Are you aware of any trauma
that occurred in Katelyn's life
around that time?

Yes... you and your wife
separated.

Doctor, Katelyn's
aggressive behavior

her anger, her acting out--

this could be explained by
the change in her home life.

Some of the indicators
can, yes.

But her reaction
is very specific.

All of the dominating figures
in her pictures are of you.

Well, what would Katelyn's
attitude betowards me

since I was asked
to leave the house?

Feelings of... abandonment,
resentment, anger.

[Maat] So, Katelyn's behavior
in my presence

could be attributed
to my having left the home.

Only partly.
But I think...

On how many abuse cases
have you given expert testimony?

-Over 50.
-And how many times

have you testified
on behalf of the father?

None.

Nothing further, Your Honor.

There's a missing can
of stealth paint.

-Where did you get this?
-Confidential source.

If I told you,
I'd be in breach.

You should have
reported it, Scott.

Harm, cans of coating get
misplaced all the time.

It'll turn up.
If it doesn't, I'll call NCIS.

You're treating this
like it's nothing.

-I didn't take it!
-I didn't say you took it

I said you didn't report it.

[Garland]
NCIS has no reason to consider
Commander Webster a suspect.

Over two dozen people have
access to the stealth coating.

Why do you ask,
Commander?

Captain, Commander Webster
has sold or is about to sell

stealth coating
to a French company.

You care to explain that
Commander?

Sir, while I was preparing
my fraternization case

I uncovered evidence that
the commander was negotiating

sale of stealth coating
to a foreign company.

I found threee-mails
to that effect, sir.

Are we getting
into attorney-client privilege
here, Commander?

Well, I think
we've arrived there, Captain.

"Rule 5-0-2,
lawyer-client privilege:

"Exception--
if the communication
clearly contemplated

-"the future commission
-[both reciting]
Of a fraud or a crime... "

Is this the case?

I believe it is, sir.

I'll have to send a formal
report to Admiral Chegwidden.

He'll open an
ethics inquiry.

If he doesn't find you had
sufficient cause to reveal

a confidential communication...

you could be disbarred.

I understand that, sir.

We'd like to interview
Katelyn Maat at this time,
Your Honor.

We intend to keep this informal,
given the child's age.

You Honor, I don't want
to see my daughter put through
an adversarial proceeding.

Then what are
we doing here, Mr. Maat?

I'll handle this,
Colonel MacKenzie.

Are you concerned for her
psychological welfare?

Yes, Your Honor.

Questioning Katelyn in open
court may traumatize her.

I would rather waivemy right
to question her.

May we have a minute,
Your Honor?

-What's he doing?
-The smart thing.

If you put Katelyn
through this

while your husband
sacrifices his case

to spare his little girl

you'll look like
an uncaring mother.

Without Katelyn's testimony,

the judge won't believe
he touched her.

And this judge determines
visitation rights--

your impression on him
is everything.

He's going to win
this, isn't he?

Commander Webster.

You're under arrest
for espionage

and violation
of security regulations.

Dad?

I'll call you, son.

This way, sir.

[handcuffs clicking]

[Chegwidden] I trust that you
breached confidentiality

for a legitimate reason.

Yes, sir.

I just got a call
from Pax River.

They discovered the missing can
of stealth coating
behind a shelf an hour ago.

There's evidence
that workers left
it there by accident.

-What evidence, sir?
-Don't have specifics

but NCIS has closed
their investigation.

Maybe you shouldn't have acted
so hastily.

Admiral, the longer I waited
the more likely

that stealth coating
would be sold, sir.

Take at least 24 hours
for the paperwork

on your ethics inquiry
to reach my desk.

Use that time wisely, Commander.

-[clicks heels]
-Aye, aye, sir.

Lieutenant, when did you first
notice there was a can
of stealth coating missing?

-Three days ago, sir.
-That didn't surprise you

that Commander Webster
failed to report it?

Am I being
cross-examined, sir?

Just answer the question,
Lieutenant.

It didn't occur
to me, sir.

Anyway, it was recovered.

If I may ask, does this
have something to do with
what happened yesterday?

Yes. I think there was
some stealth coating

removed from the can
before it was returned.

Sir... I'm with the
commander every day.

This is not something
he would do, ever.

I believe otherwise,
Lieutenant.

That's because you don't
know him as well as I do, sir.

I've known the commander
for years.

But you're not in
love with him, sir.

How's Lieutenant Maat
taking it?

Well, Colonel MacKenzie's
trying to console her.

I was going to give this
to Katelyn to celebrate.

I talked Colonel MacKenzie
into using Beth Salluci.

Expert witnesses
aren't foolproof, Bud.

You two look like
your dog died.

The judge awarded
joint custody.

Lieutenant Maat and her
daughter have to return
to the base.

Her father's getting
her this weekend.

You think the father
really hurts this kid?

Mothers know these things.

Some mothers.

Excuse me,
could you direct me

to the... CEO?

Hey. Aren't you...?

Monica.

How are you?

I'm a little confused.

Why is that?

I thought you were
Bill Webster's girlfriend.

Yes.

And you're
the receptionist here?

Does Bill know
that you work here?

[Rabb]
How did you meet Monica, Bill?

[chuckles] On the road.
Her car broke down.

What's going on?

You familiar with a company
called Siecle Tech?

No.

She works for them.

What? No way. She, uh,
she's a college student.

Look, I'm going to
lay it out for you
so we can move this along.

Siecle Tech has been
trying to purchase

classified material from
your father's program.

I went there to find out
who was behind the effort.

When I saw Monica, well...
it all fell together.

I believe they
sent her after you.

I've already
informed NCIS, so...

we can wait for them
or you can talk to me right now.

You decide.

Did you take
some stealth coating, Bill?

Yes, but I didn't do
anything with it.

I was watching the news,
this woman being interviewed,

talking about how her husband
was at the World Trade Center.

I dumped it in the toilet.

But you were going to sell it.

Military secrets.

Monica said it wasn't
like espionage or anything.

That it was competition,
the way...

the way companies
do business.

How'd you gain access
to a secured area, Bill?

I know where my dad
keeps his key.

He was taking a test flight,
so... I went into the cage

and got a can
and took it to a work area.

I poured some
into an olive jar.

But then someone came in.

I had to stick it
behind the shelf.

Then, when he got suspended,

I couldn't get back in there
to return it.

So, the email that I recovered
was meant for you?

[sighs]

Did your dad confront
you about this, Bill?

Yeah, but he said since
I didn't sell what I took
that he would cover for me.

[sighs]

-Where's Colonel MacKenzie?
-Excuse me, sir,
do you have an appointment?

-No.
-Sir!

-Something wrong, Mr. Maat?
-You know there is.

My wife and daughter
have disappeared.

They're not back
at the base?

Base security reports
having seen them leave

with a blonde
female officer.

Tell me where they are.

I've been here all day.

-You're lying.
-Sir...!

-Sir!
-[grunts]

We got him, ma'am.

[Maat]
Sorry.

All right, all right,
all right, all right.

I'm okay now.
You can let me go.

[breathing heavily]

Sorry.

That was stupid.

No, Mr. Maat,
that was assault.

You'll be hearing from us
afterwe appeal
the judge's decision

to grant you joint custody.

-You okay, sweetie?
-Yeah, I'm fine.

Is there something
we should know, Harriet?

It wasn't me, ma'am.

Looks like someone's having
a bad day.

Lieutenant Maat
went U.A. today

with her child.

-Is that right, ma'am?
-Mm, she was accompanied

by a blonde officer.

That'd be against regulations.
Wouldn't it?

Yes, it would,
Lieutenant.

Hmm...

[Chegwidden] I've finished
reviewing your ethics inquiry.

Yes, sir.

Given the fact that
Commander Webster

was not planning a crime
you have no defense.

-No, sir.
-However, as it turns out,

he did not
commit the crime

you reported
in the first place--

removing classified
material from the base.

No, sir.

And since he was covering up
for his son,

there was an ongoing crime

so, in my interpretation,
there was no breach.

I believe intentto breach is
sometimes a consideration, sir.

Commander, is it necessary
for you to argue with me

even when I'm finding
inyour favor?

Uh, n-no, sir, I-I'm sorry.
I was thinking out loud.

-Well, don't.
-No, sir.

Dismissed.

-[clicks heels]
-Aye, aye, sir.

[Bill]
I had to tell them, Dad.

You did the right thing, son.

What's going
to happen now, Harm?

We'll try to plea-bargain.

Bill's testimony against
Siecle Tech in exchange

for reduced charges.

What's going to happen to
my dad, sir?

My navy career is over, son.

Not your professional
career, Scott.

There will be a dozen firms
out there fighting over you.

Won't be the same.

I'm a swabbie, Harm.

I wish to hell
you had leveled with me, Scott.

I could have done something.

I know.

You caught me off guard
with those emails.

Had about two seconds
to think about it.

When I realized
that Bill had to be involved

I got instinctively
protective.

Ah, we've been through
so much...

I've invited somebody
to join us.

How are you, sir?

I'm all right,
Lieutenant.

You know what they say, Scott.

"Whenever God closes one door,
he opens another."
