The thing nobody 206 00:12:06,140 --> 00:12:12,160 expects, the hobby, the side project, the weird obsession. 207 00:12:12,740 --> 00:12:16,820 That? It's usually the stuff that ends up solving the hard cases. 208 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:18,200 Wow. 209 00:12:19,260 --> 00:12:21,080 Do you play the theremin? 210 00:12:21,340 --> 00:12:25,340 Oh, yeah, yeah. Those are actually really great at diagnosing electrical 211 00:12:25,340 --> 00:12:26,680 shorts. That's fascinating. 212 00:12:26,980 --> 00:12:28,740 Yeah. I'm gonna go back to work. 213 00:12:28,940 --> 00:12:29,639 All right. 214 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,740 Well, you do your thing. 215 00:12:32,540 --> 00:12:34,960 Just remember, the weirder, the better. 216 00:12:35,380 --> 00:12:39,800 Well, I did empty the Fenwick's cute little robot vacuum. I thought, you 217 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,330 know, maybe that... sucked up something the gunman dropped, but it was honestly 218 00:12:43,330 --> 00:12:44,830 just another dead end. 219 00:12:46,770 --> 00:12:49,530 Did you... Well, 220 00:12:50,870 --> 00:12:53,690 first you cornered Casey, and now you're biting the coffee. 221 00:12:55,070 --> 00:12:56,670 Vision speech said we barely noticed you. 222 00:12:57,210 --> 00:12:58,970 I just had a few follow-up questions. 223 00:12:59,390 --> 00:13:03,870 Well, I hope you're not here to ask for your old apartment back, are you? 224 00:13:03,910 --> 00:13:07,030 Because Delilah just redecorated it. Oh, no, I've already spoken to Delilah. 225 00:13:07,110 --> 00:13:08,110 She's okay with it. 226 00:13:08,770 --> 00:13:09,930 She's what? What do you mean? 227 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:11,600 Kidding. 228 00:13:11,740 --> 00:13:12,900 I found another place. 229 00:13:13,540 --> 00:13:14,540 Afternoon, director. 230 00:13:14,700 --> 00:13:15,700 Hey. 231 00:13:17,700 --> 00:13:18,820 Director DiNozzo. 232 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,360 Still doesn't sound real. I'm hoping repetition helps. Not that I don't think 233 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:27,660 you can do the job, you know. It's just I keep picturing the guy who drove a 234 00:13:27,660 --> 00:13:30,000 Corvette with his feet. I was being shot at. 235 00:13:30,780 --> 00:13:34,480 And believe it or not, this is harder. I spent the last week learning what keeps 236 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:38,840 the U.S. Navy up at night. And this job requires both hands. 237 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:40,720 And both feet. 238 00:13:41,020 --> 00:13:44,440 Okay. Tell me, who's your probie? 239 00:13:45,900 --> 00:13:47,140 I won't. Okay. 240 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:49,760 I'm gonna take my director hat off. 241 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:51,880 So who's your guy? Or gal? 242 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:56,480 Tony, I'm serious. They never assign me a probie. You don't assign anyone a 243 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,240 probie. You gotta take one. 244 00:13:58,640 --> 00:13:59,700 Someone to mentor. 245 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:01,219 To torture. 246 00:14:01,220 --> 00:14:02,580 Exactly. Everyone benefits. 247 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,500 Okay. Director hat back on. 248 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:08,220 I am ordering you. 249 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:10,280 Get a probie. 250 00:14:10,740 --> 00:14:11,740 Ooh, okay. 251 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:13,400 You know what? I think I may have someone. 252 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,200 I served as acting director several times already. 253 00:14:16,500 --> 00:14:18,220 This is pretty much your first day on the job. 254 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,060 Danger, Will Robinson. I can have you court-martialed. Whatever you say, 255 00:14:21,180 --> 00:14:22,440 probie. Agent Knight. 256 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:25,480 Excellent timing. 257 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:27,320 What kind of milk is in there? 258 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:29,420 The skim. 259 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,440 Huh. Uh, we just got our first break in the case. 260 00:14:33,849 --> 00:14:35,190 Backyard Burning Man? Close. 261 00:14:35,410 --> 00:14:38,330 After the dinner party break-in, one of the dinner guests went home and had a 262 00:14:38,330 --> 00:14:41,730 bonfire. A concerned neighbor snapped that at about 2 a.m. A little late to be 263 00:14:41,730 --> 00:14:45,510 toasting marshmallows. And according to the neighborhood chat, two more dinner 264 00:14:45,510 --> 00:14:47,190 guests had bonfires that same night. 265 00:14:47,430 --> 00:14:48,510 Three guests, three bonfires? 266 00:14:49,530 --> 00:14:50,530 Well, that's not a coincidence. 267 00:14:50,950 --> 00:14:52,790 Nope. That is a cover-up. 268 00:15:00,310 --> 00:15:01,310 All right, Casey. 269 00:15:01,950 --> 00:15:05,930 Three expedited search warrants, three backyards dug up before dawn. Tell me it 270 00:15:05,930 --> 00:15:09,750 was worth it. Depends on if you like weird as much as our new director. 271 00:15:10,570 --> 00:15:16,490 Frank Russo, Dawn Spurlock, Evan Jenks. Three dinner guests, three very strange 272 00:15:16,490 --> 00:15:17,630 piles of ash. 273 00:15:17,990 --> 00:15:21,950 They all contain burn paper. No surprise there if you're destroying evidence. 274 00:15:22,310 --> 00:15:24,910 But I also found traces of hair. 275 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:30,360 Fingernails? Who burns fingernails? People trying to destroy DNA. 276 00:15:30,660 --> 00:15:34,200 But whatever the reason, they were in a hurry to hide it. Maybe that's what our 277 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,680 suburban commandos were after when they broke into the Fenwick house. Could be. 278 00:15:37,820 --> 00:15:43,140 But Linda and Greg Fenwick never had a bonfire. And they're the only ones who 279 00:15:43,140 --> 00:15:47,000 haven't lawyered up. So our happy couple wasn't a part of whatever this is? 280 00:15:47,260 --> 00:15:48,680 They just invited the wrong people to dinner. 281 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:51,760 What's with the NCIS security cameras? 282 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,040 Oh, it's not part of the case. Director DiNozzo asked me to pull security 283 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:56,500 footage from the biohazard alarm. 284 00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,160 In case it wasn't an accident. 285 00:15:58,400 --> 00:15:59,580 Nobody likes to be messed with. 286 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,300 Uh-oh. That didn't sound good. 287 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,600 Linda Fenwick just reported her husband missing. 288 00:16:11,300 --> 00:16:13,180 Fred Fenwick didn't come home last night. 289 00:16:13,580 --> 00:16:14,580 Linda's worried sick. 290 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,320 She's never spent a night without him. Normally, I'd say six hours is a little 291 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,920 early to panic, but after armed mercenaries break into your house... 292 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,840 Okay, we got no credit card hits, and his phone's still off. 293 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,200 Do we still have access to the neighbor's security camera? 294 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,880 Yeah, nothing from last night, so I widened the timeline. 295 00:16:30,180 --> 00:16:32,240 How far back? Two weeks before the break-in. 296 00:16:32,900 --> 00:16:37,080 The same SUV keeps driving past the Fenwick house. Maybe another neighbor? 297 00:16:37,420 --> 00:16:41,100 I don't think so. The driver also kept parking across the street, never got out 298 00:16:41,100 --> 00:16:41,679 of the car. 299 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:42,680 They're watching the house. 300 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,120 More likely watching Greg look. 301 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,900 He's being followed. No plates, no clear shot of the driver, and no sign of the 302 00:16:51,900 --> 00:16:53,560 SUV since. It's disappeared. 303 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:54,800 And Greg's disappeared. 304 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:56,840 And all the neighbors are destroying evidence. 305 00:16:57,660 --> 00:17:02,240 Which brings us to today's slideshow. 306 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:04,400 Slideshow? 307 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:06,560 People who tried to hide DNA. 308 00:17:06,859 --> 00:17:10,240 Well, that's catchy. Couldn't sleep, so I started looking at... 309 00:17:10,540 --> 00:17:16,400 different cases where DNA asks specific questions, like... Who's your daddy? 310 00:17:16,660 --> 00:17:21,240 A woman's body is melted in a vat. Who is the father of her unborn child? 311 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,760 We also have, who's your mommy? 312 00:17:24,060 --> 00:17:25,680 Whose rotting corpse is that? 313 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:27,420 Who needs a kidney? 314 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,900 These are all very different questions. 315 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,340 Maybe one of them applies to your dinner guests. 316 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,100 Just trying to help. I got lunch on the hill. 317 00:17:35,300 --> 00:17:39,500 If you solve the case before dessert, shoot me a text. 318 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,740 He put a lot of effort into this. 319 00:17:44,140 --> 00:17:45,700 Yeah, maybe a little too much. 320 00:17:46,700 --> 00:17:47,960 Does he work in our case? 321 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,700 Speaking of our case, oh, Bola just came back. 322 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,620 Greg Fenwick's car was found at the bottom of a ravine. 323 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:02,880 With Greg still inside. 324 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:06,980 I can't believe he's gone. 325 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,080 I'm sorry for your loss. 326 00:18:09,360 --> 00:18:10,360 Doesn't seem real. 327 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,380 Mrs. Fenwick, can you think of anyone who might want to hurt your husband? 328 00:18:13,980 --> 00:18:14,980 Any reason? 329 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:16,960 What? 330 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,480 The police said Greg had a heart attack while he was driving. 331 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,540 Preliminary findings suggest that he did. 332 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:28,280 But after everything that's happened the last few days... You think his death is 333 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:29,340 connected to the break-in? 334 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:36,200 Well, three of your dinner guests were all caught destroying some kind of 335 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:37,200 evidence. 336 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:40,500 I don't understand. What does that have to do with Greg? 337 00:18:40,820 --> 00:18:43,800 Maybe Greg figured out what your guests were hiding. 338 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:48,020 First my friends, now Greg. 339 00:18:48,220 --> 00:18:50,660 You'd think everyone in my life was keeping secrets from me. 340 00:18:51,580 --> 00:18:52,580 There's also this. 341 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,840 Someone was following your husband. You recognize that vehicle? 342 00:18:56,860 --> 00:19:02,440 No. But Greg wasn't mixed up in anything dangerous. He would have told me. 343 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:03,800 You sure? 344 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,920 He died this morning. 345 00:19:11,020 --> 00:19:14,040 And now you want me to believe that I didn't know my own husband? 346 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:18,440 You know, for years, people joked that our marriage was too good to be true, 347 00:19:18,500 --> 00:19:19,860 that it couldn't possibly be real. 348 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:22,840 It was real, Agent McGee. 349 00:19:23,620 --> 00:19:24,620 We're done here. 350 00:19:24,820 --> 00:19:26,000 You can let yourself out. 351 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,720 What if that's exactly why he kept you in the dark? 352 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:38,260 Excuse me? Knowing something could put my wife in danger, I would do everything 353 00:19:38,260 --> 00:19:41,580 I could to keep her out of it, not because I didn't trust her, because I 354 00:19:41,580 --> 00:19:42,580 love her. 355 00:19:45,740 --> 00:19:48,080 I must finally please if there's anything else. 356 00:19:51,100 --> 00:19:56,660 Last year, I noticed a little brass key on his keychain. 357 00:19:57,100 --> 00:19:59,520 It was a key I didn't recognize, and I asked him what it opened. 358 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,220 He just shrugged and said it was work stuff. 359 00:20:03,980 --> 00:20:06,040 You think he was connected to that break-in? 360 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:07,560 I don't know, but we'll find out. 361 00:20:11,980 --> 00:20:14,080 Well, if it isn't my favorite autopsy gremlin. 362 00:20:14,300 --> 00:20:17,420 I said I wasn't going to call you that anymore. That's the only reason I'm 363 00:20:17,420 --> 00:20:18,420 letting you crash on my couch. 364 00:20:18,700 --> 00:20:23,060 If it isn't my favorite medical examiner. Much better. Now if we can 365 00:20:23,060 --> 00:20:27,120 just get you to stop setting the thermostat to ice age. Well, as soon as 366 00:20:27,120 --> 00:20:30,520 you stop throwing away my eggs two days after the Best Buy date. That means 367 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:31,520 they're expired, Tony. 368 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:32,720 Does it? 369 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:34,700 Can I help you with something? Yes. 370 00:20:35,360 --> 00:20:38,160 I actually just came by to see how autopsy was going. 371 00:20:38,380 --> 00:20:39,540 Oh. Okay. 372 00:20:40,540 --> 00:20:41,780 Didn't this guy used to have hair? 373 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:46,880 He did. And now, I have it. Ah, I knew it. 374 00:20:47,460 --> 00:20:48,660 Nobody's hair is that optimistic. 375 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:50,480 His heart is the more interesting story. 376 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:54,160 The coroner listed cause of death as fatal arrhythmia. 377 00:20:54,700 --> 00:20:58,700 I can smell that butt coming a mile away. But Casey found traces of a very 378 00:20:58,700 --> 00:21:00,640 sophisticated poison in his blood. 379 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,800 This was not natural causes. This was...

He's been an agent for so long, you know. 575 00:31:01,060 --> 00:31:02,120 Just needs some time to adjust. 576 00:31:02,420 --> 00:31:03,560 Well, he needs to adjust faster. 577 00:31:04,180 --> 00:31:05,460 And you got to pick a side, Parker. 578 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,120 Yeah, well, I wouldn't mind some clarification. 579 00:31:09,900 --> 00:31:11,060 Good luck getting it, McGee. 580 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:12,620 Me?

This guy handled the shipping. Though I don't 595 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:50,380 think he was into it for the money. 596 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,600 He was more into taking the drug himself. 597 00:31:53,060 --> 00:31:55,160 But they were all going to make a killing. 598 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:59,460 The market for what these guys were selling is $30 billion. 599 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:02,680 What?

I didn't need to kill anybody or crash any dinner party to get 613 00:32:38,340 --> 00:32:39,340 the formula back. 614 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,720 I already got it back two weeks before any of that happened. 615 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:44,840 And I can prove it. 616 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,140 Okay.

And their head of security just confirmed the rest of his 620 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,380 story. Research tech stole the formula from the shampoo division. 621 00:33:05,660 --> 00:33:09,360 Moody stole it back. Weeks ago. DA already has a case. Well, then, who 622 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:10,360 killed this guy? 623 00:33:10,820 --> 00:33:12,260 And who broke into his house? 624 00:33:12,460 --> 00:33:16,020 I don't know, but I know how we can find out.

Beep, beep, skinny. 626 00:33:19,540 --> 00:33:23,540 When our whole case blew up, I started hearing Donoso's voice in my head. 627 00:33:23,940 --> 00:33:27,140 That's unsettling. Well, he was saying that weird stuff usually solves the 628 00:33:27,140 --> 00:33:28,760 case, so I leaned into my weird. 629 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,420 Cleaning. Your apartment would disagree. 630 00:33:32,090 --> 00:33:35,750 Not places, circuitry. Nothing I hate more than a dusty motherboard. 631 00:33:36,190 --> 00:33:40,430 And this robot vacuum's gearbox was filthy. But when I started cleaning this 632 00:33:40,430 --> 00:33:42,690 puppy's innards, I triggered some kind of fail-safe. 633 00:33:43,030 --> 00:33:46,450 Vacuums have fail-safes?

How massive? We don't know. 706 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:34,760 What's the endgame? 707 00:37:35,130 --> 00:37:36,170 We don't know. 708 00:37:36,830 --> 00:37:40,270 All we know is it looks like they've been here for years and it's probably 709 00:37:40,270 --> 00:37:41,470 not for the barbecue. 710 00:37:42,110 --> 00:37:45,310 We finally got a lead on a cell, but all we had was a zip code. 711 00:37:45,550 --> 00:37:49,470 So you got your hacker to bug every house in it? Even that didn't help. 712 00:37:49,610 --> 00:37:52,110 These agents are ridiculously good at staying hidden. 713 00:37:52,750 --> 00:37:54,590 At least until one of them screwed up. 714 00:37:55,550 --> 00:37:59,170 So you're telling me the guy with the toupee was a deep cover spy? 715 00:37:59,570 --> 00:38:02,050 Your skepticism just means he was a damn good one. 716 00:38:02,590 --> 00:38:03,970 But luckily for us... 717 00:38:04,230 --> 00:38:08,450 Also, Vane, that hair thing, you really think a lab tech and a butcher would 718 00:38:08,450 --> 00:38:11,070 have been able to pull off a counterfeit drug ring by themselves? 719 00:38:12,090 --> 00:38:13,770 Well, when you say it like that, no. 720 00:38:14,030 --> 00:38:17,350 The husband decided to help them out.

Wanted to see who he was talking to. 722 00:38:20,230 --> 00:38:22,690 We had three months of surveillance on that vacuum. 723 00:38:23,420 --> 00:38:27,260 At least until the manufacturer pushed out that firmware update that just about 724 00:38:27,260 --> 00:38:28,260 wiped all of our data. 725 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:31,800 Okay, let me get this straight.
