Previously on NCIS.
Me? Mm -hmm.
Chief REACT training officer.
I believe you applied for the position a couple years ago.
Pendleton, that's on a whole other coat.
If I took the job, it's not like a long -distance relationship is the worst
thing that could happen. No, no, Jess. I lost Brina. I lost Dr. Mallard. So if
I'm gonna lose you two, it's gonna be on my terms. You aren't losing me, Jimmy.
Maybe you're losing me.
So is it a yes or a no?
Hell yes.
Agent Parker?
Please, call me Alden.
Philia Roth, Shore Help Legal Aid Services.
Thanks for coming on short notice.
Everyone has the right to an attorney, so who's my new client?
Someone who asked for you by name.
Really? Okay, what are the charges?
Obstruction of justice, unlawful restraint, and false imprisonment.
Is that all?
So far, but that's not the bad news.
Wait, what is this?
Well, it's what some people might call an active hostage situation.
Pardon me? Your client is armed and holding a man against his will. They're
locked inside the React Team Clubhouse and are refusing to come out until they
talk to a lawyer.
Oh, I'm confused.
So are we.
Things happen fast.
I mean, I specialize in family law, Agent Parker.
Custody cases, divorce cases, non -violence cases.
Hostage situations, you know, are not that.
Truth be told, you weren't our first call.
Good. A hostage negotiator should be your first call.
That's the bad news.
Let me go, please.
You don't have to do this.
Actually, I do.
Forgive me, Father.
Your lawyer's here.
Send her in. Just her.
You sure about this?
No.
Agent Knight.
Counselor Roth.
Great to see you again.
Can I get you anything?
Some water? Or, uh, tea?
Uh, bourbon.
Is this a joke?
It's a habit.
I'm usually the one who's trying to defuse the situation.
I'm a hostage negotiator.
I'm not.
Great. Then we're both trying something new.
Is that a priest?
That is complicated.
So wait, this is for real. You've actually taken a hostage?
Well, that's up to you.
I don't follow.
I can tell you what happened, how we got here, and then you can tell me if it's
legal or if I am going to prison.
You're the federal agent. You should know the answer.
And you are a lawyer, so you should know that things aren't always black and
white. I'm a pro bono divorce attorney, Agent Knight. I can't help you.
Divorces and hostage situations have a lot in common.
Fair point, but...
There's emotional tension, a desire for control, and above all, a need for clear
communication. And I am telling you right now that that is not what it looks
like.
Okay,
that's a little what it looks like.
But I'm telling you right now that there is a perfectly good and legal reason,
and I just need you to help me prove it.
Fine.
But you have to tell me everything.
And the minute you are not completely honest, I walk.
Deal.
Okay, in that case, you need to start at the beginning.
Well, that would be two days ago.
Agent Parker got a call in D .C.
Made your case bullpen.
Uh, sorry, she no longer works here.
Six months.
Yeah, you too.
Uh, just add it to his pile, Hank.
Special Agent McGee's desk.
Well, he's not here, so I can take a message.
Yeah. Okay, tell him I'm on the way.
Hey, McGee.
Can't talk. I'm late for my interview on the Hill.
Nice to see you, too.
That was a French macaron, and Parker didn't even smell it. I'm telling you,
it's empty nest syndrome. First, Jess leaves for California, then Torres
volunteers to go deep undercover.
And now McGee's applying for the deputy director position.
Yeah, but we're Parker.
That man is all alone.
I wish I was.
You can hear us. You're projecting.
Well, I was a tenor in college. I'm talking about your feelings, Jimmy. Just
because you're lonely doesn't mean I am.
Wait, what?
What are you talking about? Come on. This has nothing to do with McGee's job
application or Taurus being undercover.
You missed Jess.
I do not.
Okay, I do, but in a platonic way.
Wait, look, we've been broken up for 176 days, and I'm doing fine.
That's not the point.
What is the point?
The point is that we miss our friends and want them back where they belong.
Which is why Casey and I have come up with a plan. It involves some favors, a
little light treason, but I think you're going to like it. We don't need a plan.
Because you already have one? Because Torres, Knight, and McGee are
agents, and I trust them to make their own choices.
Hmm.
Then why haven't you hired a replacement?
Hold that thought.
What is it? Hey, listen up, everybody.
This is the hello line.
Hello? Oh, hey, Bob. It's Nick.
You all right?
Not much. Just going out tonight. I was hoping that you could stop by my place
and feed Rocco.
Can you say your location?
Thanks, Bob.
I love you, too.
What's going on?
Who's Rocco?
It's code for emergency.
Nick's in trouble.
Okay, so far we have an emergency phone call from an undercover agent and a
priest locked in the back room.
Priest suggests someone with a higher calling.
That guy's a free agent.
Like you.
Excuse me?
You mentioned a recent breakup.
I take detailed notes.
Well, that was six months ago.
What about it? You tell me.
We've only been talking for a few minutes and the concept of separation
already come up three times.
I don't think so.
You broke up with Dr. Palmer, you left your former team, and you've likened
hostage negotiations to divorces.
Are you working through some issues?
I'm just adding context to my story.
Well, I'm adding mental anguish to your defense.
I asked for full disclosure.
That's nothing important. I promise.
You ordered food? Not just food.
Sportelli's. It's all the way in Del Mar.
It's my favorite.
And I don't usually get to make demands in these situations.
Let's get back to why we're here.
Right.
My former teammate is missing.
Cell tower data puts the call from Nick somewhere out here.
Out here is right.
He was undercover with a local fentanyl dealer. Why come to the boonies?
Privacy?
That's what I'm afraid of. Apparently Nick was too.
I should have been there when he called.
This whole job interview process is really becoming a burden.
Deputy director, big jump.
But more interviews are a good thing, right? Hard to say.
I'm not the only applicant.
Who's your competition?
No idea, but they were personally recommended by Secretary of Defense.
That's rough.
But I'm sure you've got this.
Appreciate that.
It's just when night left, it kind of made me want to do more. Challenge
you know?
Field work still has its challenges.
Don't forget the perks.
Being on the front line, making a difference, saving lives.
Maybe not.
Lottie.
Who is it?
Not Nick.
Whoever he is.
Never saw it coming.
Had a bullet to the back of the head.
Execution.
What do we got?
I'm not sure.
T for Torres. Are we absolutely sure about this?
They see verified. It's his handwriting.
Such as it is. And the symbol. Written in the same ink with his same
slant. It's a message.
Delivered via dead body.
The symbol is associated with the Nexus drug cartel.
We think Nick is telling us who killed our mystery victim.
The Nexus cartel operates near the California -Mexico border. What are they
doing in D .C.? Franchising.
They launder money for smaller drug operations in exchange for a cut.
And Torres was undercover in one of those smaller operations.
Rumor has it all dirty money is run through a central kingpin in California.
Does this kingpin have a name? He's only known as El Padre.
Okay, so how does that help us find Agent Torres? We also found tire tracks
this field.
Belonging to a private aircraft.
You think Torres got on a plane with the Nexus cartel?
Likely headed to California.
I'll notify the Southwest field office in San Diego.
I was planning to hop a plane there myself.
And I'll run point here. That sounds premature. Do we have actual proof of
SoCal connection?
I do.
The mystery body was in our system.
Meet Hector Merlina.
Known enforcer for the Nexus cartel.
Working out of Oceanside, California.
He's also the ex -husband of an NCIS agent.
Special Agent Jody Moreno, currently a React trainee at Camp Pendleton. Sounds
like a connection to me.
Pack your bag.
Tighten up. Move as one.
Next pair, wait for the tone, then wait for your partner.
This drill is about building trust, knowing where your partner is at all
Moreno, why aren't you in line?
Sorry, ma 'am.
Family drama.
Everything okay?
Yeah, my ex missed a custody hearing and my lawyer's trying to reschedule.
She's on her way up to meet, if that's okay. Yeah, take as much time as you
need.
And, uh, take a protein pastry.
Family drama can be draining.
Uh, mind if I take one for my lawyer?
Sure.
That's her now.
Are you okay?
Yeah. Yeah, I think so.
Training time out.
Or not.
I think it's broken.
I'll get a medic.
Okay.
Parker? Is this a bad time?
You're not my finest hour. Your tolerance for pain is very high.
Is that why you asked me here?
Agent Moreno trusts you, and I trust Agent Moreno, so... I thought it was
a shot.
I just still feel like you're holding back.
On what?
Well, nothing you've said explains why there is a priest chained to a chair.
I told you that the head of the Nexus cartel is El Padre.
Wait.
El Padre?
Is an actual Padre.
And he is the only one who can save Agent Torres' life.
You think that man is an international drug lord?
Wolf in Shepard's clothing.
Well, if he's guilty, why don't you arrest him?
You don't have proof. I'm working on it. While breaking the law, you can't hold
a suspect without cause.
I have cause.
Agent Torres is being held prisoner, and that man knows where.
If I let him go, we'll never see him or my teammate again.
It's exigent circumstances.
It would be with factual evidence, but I haven't heard any of that.
Well, I haven't finished telling you my story.
Well, maybe you should skip all that personal stuff about breakups and broken
arms. Get to the important part.
The personal stuff is the important part.
Hector and I haven't been together for three years, but...
And it still hurts.
Turning the page doesn't mean tearing out a chapter.
Especially when that chapter involves a child.
Oscar.
Can you just turn four?
I understand that you and your ex were in the middle of a court case.
Yes, sir.
Hector, stop paying child support.
Daycare isn't cheap, and I'm only a junior agent.
Until I pass REACT training.
That shouldn't be a problem.
I'm not.
Did you know that Hector was working for the Nexus cartel?
Why, we divorced?
Hector started using after Oscar was born.
And I tried getting him help, but he refused.
When I cut him off financially, he went to work for his supplier.
We think the cartel is behind the murder.
I only wanted to protect my son.
This isn't your fault.
We're just trying to find out everything we can about the cartel.
And El Padre.
Hector never talked about that life.
And I didn't ask.
Hector wasn't perfect, but he didn't deserve it.
Whoever is responsible, they need to pay.
They will.
I promise.
Thank you.
Be in touch.
I hope we can keep that promise.
We don't have a choice.
Nick's life depends on it.
You dropped something?
I think your trainee did. Looks like a hair tie.
Could be.
Inspector General LaRoche. Appreciate you returning my call.
Read your operations report.
You're missing an agent.
Nicholas Torres. He's been dark for 26 hours.
Can the Department of Justice help? We're requesting all files on the Nexus
cartel and El Padre.
You mean from FBI, DEA, Homeland?
They all have open cases, yes.
They do.
But I'm afraid they're open for a reason. Not even the big boys know very
about this so -called El Padre. I doubt the intel would help a lesser agency.
It's not the size that counts.
You're asking for classified information.
What we're asking for is anything that may tell us where Agent Torres is being
held. I'm sorry, is there a problem?
No problem.
That was weird.
Yeah. He's holding something back.
No, not him. You.
That guy just spit in your eye and you didn't even blink.
How do you stay so cool?
Oh, practice. I've been getting grilled by congressional committees all week.
You really want that promotion, huh?
Almost as much as Delilah wants the steady hours that come with it. What do
got? Case files. The NCIS React team at Pendleton has a history with the Nexus
cartel. They've led several raids on their hideout.
Could this help us find Nick?
It might, because the cartel knows the first rule of real estate.
By low, so high?
Location, location, location.
All of the hideouts have been in empty warehouses near freeways.
It's a cheap, quick getaway.
Makes sense.
What doesn't make sense...
All the hideouts have also been within two blocks of a local food pantry.
Like the ones that are for charity?
Maybe the cartel likes free food.
Or hiding in plain sight.
Either way, it's a pattern that could help us find their next hideout. And
hopefully next.
All right. Let's call Parker. Okay.
Why would a cartel operate near food pantries?
Last place anyone would look.
I'm looking.
I like your good Samaritans.
All right, what's next up on Casey's list of potential hideouts?
Office Park in Escondido.
Ugh, never mind.
Traffic, I might as well just hang here.
So, new ride, huh?
Oh, went in wrong.
California looks good on you.
The produce is magic.
Well, it's more than that.
This is what you wanted.
This is what I wanted.
Team sends her best, especially Jimmy, who's still counting the days.
177. You're both counting days?
No, not us.
It's Victoria.
She's having a hard time letting go and sends a daily text tally.
Poor kid misses her friend.
Like the rest of us.
Yeah.
Hey. We got movement.
Poor Ed.
And the guy who got him thinks he's Rambo.
I've got to stop that van without starting a war.
I'm looking to ideas.
How much do you like your car?
Oh, my
God. I am so sorry.
Are you okay?
It's okay, lady. I'm fine.
Uh, don't worry about a thing. I have great insurance.
We could exchange information.
I'll be right out.
I gotta deal with something.
You make a sound, I open fire, and there are a lot of innocent civilians out
there. You understand?
Need any help, miss?
No, no, I think we're good. Thank you.
Look, lady, I'll register you for the damage.
Pardon?
It's the busted headlight. How's two grand, Tom?
Good?
Well, you know, it's really been my insurance. I mean, it was my fault. I'm
sorry. You know what? Let me just go grab my insurance. You just wait right
here. I'll be so fast.
It's okay. It's okay. I got you. I got you.
You've got to get out of here before he comes back.
What are you talking about? You're a prisoner. Yeah, by choice.
What? What happened?
I got made.
But instead of killing me, the cartel offered me a job.
Why would they do that?
I told them I was crooked.
That's not good, Nick.
They're going to expect you to prove yourself.
Yeah, which is why I'm tied up. They're not going to trust me until I perform a
hit. A hit on who?
I don't know. But if you wreck me now, somebody is going to take my place.
Someone who's actually going to go through with it.
I heard El Padre is planning to make an appearance.
Might be a lonely chance to find this guy and take him down. What if they take
you down first?
Parker, I know what I'm doing.
You have to trust me.
Trust me.
Wait, so you found your missing agent and let him go?
Parker trusted people.
Well, that clearly hasn't worked out.
Hello? This is Agent Knight. This is Inspector General LaRoche.
Whatever you're doing, it ends now.
Do I know you? I know you.
And I know you're illegally holding a suspect without factual basis.
Well, that's actually up for debate.
It's not a joke, Agent Knight. This is your career and your personal freedom
we're talking about. Not to mention a costly civil suit.
Well, what about my missing teammate?
Can we talk about him?
If you do not peacefully surrender, the NCIS REACT team will forcefully enter
and arrest you.
You have ten minutes to decide.
Where are you going? I'm not done.
The Department of Justice ordered you to surrender.
That was just a test to save a minute for the long haul.
And a procedure.
Hostage negotiation 101?
Yeah, about the chicken clock.
So what happens in ten minutes?
They call again, we ask for more time, and so forth.
Either way, we won't go hungry. Pizza is close.
What if you're wrong, Agent Knight? What if... What if the React team threatens
to kick down the door?
Then I guess it's my last chance to make my case.
Yeah, I like it better when you make jokes.
This part of the story isn't funny.
So where is Torres now?
We're trying to find out.
And what about the van?
Put out a bolo, but tailing it would have put Nick at risk. So would leaving
tied up.
Maybe the cartel will bring him back to the empty warehouse.
Knight's there on stakeout, and we have eyes on all the other potential hideouts
as well. Just to be clear, when Nick asked you to trust him, did you ever
consider, you know, ignoring him?
Casey? If I wanted to jump off a bridge, would you let me?
I just want this team back in one piece.
We all do. Believe me.
So what do we got?
Well, we've got bad news and we've got worse news.
We were digging into the React raids on the cartel and found a problem.
Early raids led to the seizure of plenty of drugs and dirty money, but lately
the raids have been coming up empty -handed.
By the time React arrived to serve the warrant... The cartel was already long
gone. It's like they knew NCIS was coming.
That's the bad news. The worst news is that Torres got made, and he's way too
good to let that happen. Add the two together, and... There's a leak.
appears that way.
Inspector General LaRoche just informed me that NCIS has been under
investigation. Since when?
Since we noticed the decreasing effectiveness of the REACT team raids.
believes that one of your agents is feeding intel to the Nexus cartel.
That's why you didn't want to send over those case files.
No hard feelings.
There will be if you don't have proof.
They have proof.
We've been monitoring the banking habits of NCIS agents.
Which agents?
That's classified. But two days ago, we tracked a large deposit from a cartel
bank to an offshore account.
Whose account?
We got a problem.
You're right.
It's been hours, and no one has come in or out of the cartel warehouse.
Okay, two problems.
Your trainee is a mole.
Moreno? Shouldn't be surprising. Turns out that the Nexus cartel uses these
exact bands to sort their dirty cash.
And you knew it?
I've seen them on raids.
So why didn't you tell me?
We don't know that band came from Moreno.
That's circumstantial.
Well... The 150 grand in her offshore account isn't.
Where'd you get this?
The IG has been tracking a mole within NCIS.
Marino wouldn't work for a drug dealer.
Especially not once you destroyed her marriage. And where'd the money come
I don't know. Ask her.
We can't find her. She's not at home and her cell phone is off.
This looks bad, Jess.
I know my team, Parker. I trust them.
I get that.
But sometimes people make choices we don't understand.
You're right.
Who is that?
The Reverend from the food pantry.
What's he doing with the key?
No idea.
I mean, unless El Padre is a literal nickname.
This is a misunderstanding.
I was only dropping off extra food.
To an empty warehouse?
I leave it for the workers.
They work for a drug cartel.
They seem so nice.
They even gave me a key.
You don't seem upset that you've been feeding criminals.
I feed anyone who is hungry, Agent Parker.
Boss's orders.
Well, according to what I'm reading, you are the boss.
Reverend Edward Pike, owner and CEO of Thumbelt Food Banks.
Amazing what a little faith and a lot of hard work can do.
Our first food pantry was in the backseat of my 1972 Chevy Nova.
I had a 73.
Thought I wasn't using my backseat for charity.
Well, we have since upgraded to 23 branches across the Southwest.
We noticed.
We also noticed that these branches have been near cartel hideouts.
I don't understand.
Maybe because you operate near the border, ship across state lines, deal in
donations.
Sounds like the perfect front to me.
You think I'm El Padre?
I read the newspaper.
But wearing a collar does not make me guilty.
Doesn't make you innocent either.
We are a registered non -profit that is audited regularly.
I have no criminal record.
I pay my taxes and I take the bus.
Hardly the life of an international drug lord.
Is there anything else I could help you with?
Am I free to go to Wednesday night service?
Give us a minute.
You're not buying this open book act, are you? I'm not sure it is an act, but
that doesn't matter. We got nothing to hold them on anyway.
We've got the warehouse key, the cartel hideout, the nickname.
It's all circumstantial. You know that.
I also know that if this guy is El Padre, we just showed him our hand.
If we let him leave, we're never going to see him or Nick again.
We don't have a choice.
He doesn't know that.
You want to lose your job?
I won't.
Trust me.
No.
Not this time.
Reverend, thanks for coming in. You're free to go.
I hope you find your man.
And I hope I didn't miss the bus.
Jess! What's going on?
We're saving Nick's life.
Okay, so then what?
Nothing. I asked Parker to call you, and here we are.
End of story.
So this whole thing is based on a single rubber band?
Plus the other stuff. I mean, that's got to be enough, right? Relax, Agent
Knight. You sold me.
That doesn't mean the DOJ will agree or that El Padre will suddenly confess.
I just need time to find Taurus.
This is NCIS React.
Time's up! You said DOJ would call first. Tossage Negotiation 101?
I guess they missed that day.
Time.
Let's go.
One bullet.
One chance to prove your loyalty.
Either she dies or you do.
It's a simple choice, Agent Torres.
What are you waiting for?
Hold on.
She changed the answer.
It doesn't change anything. It changes everything.
If you want me to kill one of my own, I need a good reason.
It's called your life.
Well, that's not good enough.
I offer you my service. It's not my soul. If your boss wants me to do his
work, I want answers.
One of our employees is caught stealing.
Paid the money in an offshore account. An account in his ex -wife's name.
What gave the money to her?
Said it was for child support.
El Padre didn't like that.
Now the thief's dead.
I heard about the account.
She pretended to be clueless, which makes her a liar and a thief.
How's that for a reason?
Is that true?
No.
I don't know about any account.
I swear on my son.
If we keep her alive.
I can find the account.
You're stalling.
No, I'm offering you a gift.
If I get the money back, you get the credit.
Unlock the door or we have orders to break it down!
What do we do?
You're asking me?
You're my lawyer. I need more time. I suggest doing what they say.
Look, you did everything you could.
It's time to let go.
I tried that once. What are you talking about?
The breakup with my former teammate. You're right. I'm working through some
issues.
Angel, stop!
This is your fault!
Yes, me.
Parker?
It's over.
Are you sure? Because... Hey, hey.
Trust me.
Okay. We will be unarmed, with our backs turned, hands behind our heads.
Weapon down.
Secure. Caboo!
You're under arrest!
What? Freeze!
I'm the lawyer!
I said freeze!
About time.
I'm starting to get worried.
Pizza took longer than I thought.
What is going on?
Time is a factor, so I'll make this quick.
I lied. I didn't tell you everything.
El Padre wasn't my only hostage.
I was keeping you here, too.
Well, I pulled warrants for your phone and banking records.
A .K .A.
Pizza. I'm a divorce attorney. I have nothing to do with this. We didn't think
so, either.
Until it clicked.
You weren't the only one who gave yourself away with the cartel money
band I found under the chair.
That wasn't Moreno's.
That was yours.
And it fell out of your briefcase when you got tackled.
You can't prove that.
Well, we can now.
Because while we were talking, you weren't just taking detailed notes. You
also texting a burner number telling someone that your boss was being held
hostage. I've never seen this man before today.
Really? You're on his payroll. Your bank account shows large cash deposits
following each failed React raid.
You've been stealing React intel from Moreno and feeding it to the cartel.
I want an attorney.
Smart move.
Yeah, an even smarter move would be flipping on your boss and telling us
Torres is before something happens to him.
Okay.
Change of plans, Agent Torres.
Boss got in trouble.
So we got to move with or without you.
So what's it going to be?
Nick? Where have you been?
I'll leave you alone for two minutes.
You good?
Yeah.
Well, next time we'll keep you in the loop.
Yes, sir.
I don't think we'll be on the DOJ's Christmas card list this year. Even
El Padre has been arrested officially.
And Agent Moreno? Cleared of all charges.
She truly had no idea about the stolen money.
Oh, that's a happy ending.
What's the problem?
Night's been behind closed doors all morning. I get the sense she's about to
lose her job.
Hmm. Night goes to California.
I get put in a case that leads to California.
And now she's coming home.
Funny how things work out.
You think that was my plan?
Parker, you got a second?
Yeah.
See you downstairs.
How'd it go with the IG?
Well, I wasn't inspired.
I was promoted.
My true tactical actions were noticed by the Office of Strategic Support.
And they want me there.
Now they move up the ladder.
Well, that's great. That's what you wanted.
It was.
When I first came out here, I thought this was for me.
That this was the direction that I wanted to go in.
New job, new place, new team.
And the past six months have been great.
Really great.
But I think I realized deep down that, um... This wasn't for me.
And... It isn't what I want.
What do you want?
Jimmy. Mrs. Pop.
You're going to have Jess coming back to a dusty desk.
That's pretty exciting, huh?
Yeah. When Victoria heard the news, she started planning the next four weekends
with her bestie.
No, Jimmy, Jimmy. I meant you.
You and I getting back together?
You know, we haven't really had that talk yet, Tim. But I'm just excited to
her back in the building.
Yo, yo.
Welcome back, man.
Where's Jess?
Miss you too, Jimmy.
Nick, I'm really glad you're safe.
Seriously, though, did something happen?
Relax, Knight's finishing the last week with her trainees. She'll be here in a
few days.
I need to go text Victoria.
EOJ's final case report on El Padre. I read it on a plane.
Well, there may be a loose end.
The lawyer confessed to leaking the React intel, but she never admitted to
blowing the cover.
Well, someone did, because my work was flawless.
Well, outside of this room, the only person that knew we had an agent
is a DOJ.
Operation reports are classified. And the one person who accessed ours is
Inspector General Gabriel LaRoche.
Are you saying that LaRoche is a mole?
Not exactly, but... Good, because ruffling feathers at DOJ might put a
damper on your job applications.
Yeah.
I heard the director and Sacknive are pretty close to making a decision.
Mm -hmm.
E .J. McGee.
Yeah, I'll be right up.
Lance wants to see me.
Good luck, Deputy Director.
Agent McGee, please come in.
Agent McGee, I wanted you to hear this from me before SecNav makes it public.
You were not selected for the deputy director position.
I understand.
Hey, Tim.
Your dedication and service to this agency did not go unnoticed.
I made sure of that.
However... The Secretary of the Navy felt it important to hire someone from
outside our walls.
Hmm.
Can you say who it is?
Well, that's why I invited Inspector LaRoche to join us.
Or, should I say, newly appointed NCIS Deputy Director LaRoche.
I look forward to working with you.
Mitt?
