Sentinel vehicle 1149, this is dispatch.

Please proceed to the second pickup.

Living on free food tickets.

Water and the milk from the hole in the roof.

Heads up, kid.

We're on approach.

Hey,

Tony. You ever do the math?

Every damn day.

Broke is a joke when we're babysitting. More money than God?

Yeah, it's like being a lifeguard who can't swim.

All right, cuckoo candy.

You know, after the pickup, we'll be half a mil heavier.

Just keep on driving.

Oh, yeah? Make a run for the border?

I'm just talking, man.

Where we go?

Canada?

Hell no.

Mexico. Ooh.

Beaches.

Margaritas.

Señoritas.

I don't hate it, brother.

Yeah, the only problem with that is, Jordan, I know your wife.

She'd hunt you down like the dog you are.

A man can dream.

A man can dream.

All right, dreamer, lock in.

We're here.

God, man.

You're clear.

You're clear.

Out the door.

Hands up.

Now.

Please, have a family.

Don't do this.

Just put your hands behind your back. Get on the ground. You won't get hurt.

I mean, I get it. I get it. It looks like a quick score.

This is a federal offense, all right? 20 years minimum. Shut up. Just shut up.

Hey, Jordan, what's the holdup?

Look, look, my partner sees this. He's gone, all right? Put in the gas. You get

next to nothing. It's not worth it.

Come on, man. We got a schedule. Just get on the ground.

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

So as I was saying, this is four bedrooms, stunning open kitchen. You

have a hot tub, full amenities, gym, pool, all the bells and whistles. And of

course, this absolutely incredible terrace.

Cassie, you do know I work for the federal government, right?

Yes. Do you mean the money?

Yeah, I mean the money. Well, don't worry about that.

Look, this is a great place.

I can't afford it. Sam.

It's free.

My client's in his upstate house for the season. This is literally sitting here

empty.

That doesn't make it free.

Okay, well, I did tell him about you.

Is that right? I said you were a Navy SEAL turned Navy cop and genuinely a

solid guy.

Look, he said he'd love if you could house it for him. It's helping him out,

and it's his way of saying thank you for your service.

I'm not so sure I'm comfortable with that.

And why not?

Free isn't always free.

Sam, you risk your life for this country every day, yes?

My client got rich selling plant-based macaroons.

Look, the point is, if you don't take this, he's going to give it to somebody

less deserving and probably less trustworthy.

I think this all evens out.

I made a promise.

I was sick to my promise. Any questions?

That's nice of you to say. I want to take my time with this one.

What?

Oh.

Oh.

I appreciate that.

Thanks.

Morning. Good morning. Hey. Hey.

So?

Talking about me?

No. Oh.

No. Yeah, you were. No, we weren't.

I walked in, I saw you were talking, and then you looked at me and you stopped.

No, no, we were, um, we were talking about Sam, actually. Oh. Yeah. Okay,

what about him?

Uh...

Oh, it's just, you know, it's just been like a... It's been like a big vibe

shift since he started here. He's just like, he's very alpha.

Yeah.

Yeah. Go on.

You just, you know, he's got this like, you know, quiet charisma, certain like

command presence.

That's right. Yeah. Yeah. Guy really owns the room. You can just kind of, you

feel it when he walks in. Yeah. I feel you.

And that's a vibe shift. How?

It's just a different type of leadership, that's all. Yeah, different

than my leadership.

Totally, yeah, you're louder. Yeah, okay. And more of, like, a look-at-me

kind of leader.

Right, and we're not saying that one's better than the other. It's just, you

know, different. No, no, no, no.

Okay.

Hey, hey, got a case.

Teamwork makes the dream work. Let's go.

Yes, sir.

Sure does.

You know, I would follow that man to the gates of hell.

Okay. We'd follow you, too, though.

Thanks, buddy.

So third armored car hit in two years. Take is just under two million.

But it's the same M.O.

Ambush the guard as they exit while a sniper drops the driver before they can

move the truck.

I'm sure FBI and NYPD are all over this. Why is this our handle? Naval Corps

Credit Union.

The truck was transporting 500,000 in PX deposits from Weapons Station Earl.

They stole from the military.

According to this, two of the robberies hit in the last six weeks. Okay, so all

the guards ended up dead in all these robberies? Wow.

The guards were zip-tied without incident, clean and controlled up until

this one. But all the drivers were killed. This crew made damn sure that

truck wasn't going anywhere until they emptied all the money out of the rear

compartment. Sean, can you roll the security footage from the bank?

You can see that guy panicked. He was checking his pulse.

He clearly didn't want to kill anyone.

Intent doesn't matter. Okay, the money's gone.

Guards are dead.

I'm sorry.

What are we doing with that tie?

I'm a workplace professional, Nick. Sometimes I wear a tie. I know, but

you're not really wearing it like a tie.

I mean, maybe you're being ironic. Hey, Nick. What? Excuse me. Sean, can you

freeze it right there? Yeah.

All right. Right here?

That's where we get lucky.

See, he took his glove off trying to help the guard, but he never put it back

on again before he started grabbing for the cash.

NYPD lifted a clean print off of the rear door.

Our shooter, Sean...

It is Freddie Smith, 40 years old, ex-army, three tours, came home addicted

and fell through the cracks.

We got a last known address.

No, nothing listed, but he did a few rounds at a VA rehab.

Hmm.

Wyatt, Addie, why don't you head over to the VA? Maybe they know where Freddie's

been staying. Yeah.

Nick and I can warp the crime scene.

This is an extremely violent crew. Let's move fast.

Got it.

The suspect that shot the guard outside the truck jumped in a gray sedan with no

plates and took off northbound.

We're scrubbing traffic cams for additional, but no luck so far. You

already have statements from the bank employees?

Yeah, but nothing we didn't already know.

You two handling this?

Thank you. Thank you, Sergeant.

Yeah. Yeah. Special Agent Sam Hannis, Special Agent Nick Schaefer, you are?

I'm their supervisor.

They were good men with families.

I'm very sorry for your loss.

You guys have been hit before, right? No.

Not us. We heard about the others, so it's been on our radar.

Ah. Seems like they knew the pickup schedule.

Is it the same time each week, or does it vary?

For this place, it's on an as-needed basis, so it varies.

Hey, Joe, the family's here.

That's their wives, and I've got to go talk to them. Okay. Thank you.

All right, I had a case like this a few years back.

Same thing.

Guy tried to shoot through the window of an armored truck.

Couldn't get through, and this...

Level 10 bullet-resistant glass is no joke.

The sergeant said the witnesses heard two shots. Said it sounded like a sonic

boom, which means it was probably a .50 cal.

So I'm thinking the first shot hits the glass and weakens it. The second shot,

because it was a good sniper, hit the exact same spot.

Finished the job.

Aha. CSU found a bullet over here, right?

Okay. The first bullet ricocheted off the glass. Went over here.

It's a tungsten.

Armor piercing.

Shooter knew what he was doing.

Thank you.

All right. So now we just got to figure out the hide. Well, all of these are

dead angles.

Everywhere except there.

You look at it, it's a clean line of sight.

Here to there.

I start my search right there.

It's the hide.

You found the two casings?

Yeah. It was two rounds from a .50 cap.

Still don't think the shooter's ex-military or he would have collected

his brass.

Thank you. Here you go.

Maybe he got spooked when he heard the sirens. I mean, it's still not the

easiest shot in the world, right?

Nah. If you had a great scope and a stable shooting platform, even a jittery

caffeine freak like you could hit that target. What do you mean, jittery?

Drink a lot of coffee. You drink a lot of coffee. You had at least eight cups

yesterday. You're keeping track of the amount of coffee that I drink? No, I

just don't want your little heart to explode.

What do you got?

We got a last note on Freddy, a hostel in Queens.

Where vets can rent rooms.

Shaky. Okay, we're close. We'll go. All right, I'll text you the address and

I'll copy the search warrant.

What do you got? Got a location on Freddy.

Okay, where?

My old neighborhood.

Okay.

I'm going home.

Sir, go back in your apartment and close the door.

Go.

NCIS, we have a warrant!

Try the door.

Oh.

Go.

There.

Well...

Yeah. Murder weapon in that hat?

No. Terrible logo, though.

I didn't find it either. He must have ditched it.

Yeah. Probably in the bottom of the Hudson or Baisley Pond.

Yeah, well, I don't think that Freddy is the guy you want holding the bag.

Hey, do me a favor. Have the lab rush the analysis on that, please.

Got it. What are you thinking?

The needle's half full.

The track mark's on this guy's arm. He's been shooting dope for a long time. Mm

-hmm. Half syringe don't kill a guy like this. You think heart attack?

Or a hot shot. I don't know.

Definitely not a straight-up overdose.

What do you got?

Did a few tours in Afghanistan.

He's got a Purple Heart, Meritorious Service Medal, Army Commendation Medal,

Army Achievement Medal. Seen a lot of action.

Yeah. And he's got a pay stub.

He's handing out flyers for a councilman's campaign, a guy down the

street. His name is Wesley Jackson.

Look at Wesley Jackson. I love a local politician.

What, Nick, you don't think Wesley Jackson's gonna lift up the community?

Huh. Huh.

I don't know. I don't think so.

Yeah, well, have a talk with Mr. Jackson.

See if he's willing to fight for you.

Hey.

Check this out.

Hey.

I can smell the hot dairy on your breath. That's funny. You haven't had a

drop all day. It's permeating from you. You smell like a newborn baby.

What are you looking at? Security footage from the last three robberies.

This sniper might have been the same guy.

Yeah. But the robber approaching the rear of the armored vehicle?

Sure as hell wasn't.

Some of them are taller and shorter than Freddy.

Okay, so the crew's bigger than we thought.

Or he disposed of them, like he did Freddy.

And for these thugs, what's another lost bet?

Hey.

Hi. Hello.

Do you have information, Sean?

I do.

Would you like to share it? Yeah, but I didn't want to interrupt.

Are you doing performance art? What are you doing?

Nothing. I'm working.

So tell us what you know.

Okay.

I called the armored car companies that were hit by this crew.

Only thing that they had in common is they share the same dispatch center. So

they had prior knowledge to the pickup times and locations for all of the

companies? And the amounts being picked up.

So that's how our crew knew the pickup times.

There must be an inside man. Yeah, but the second we start asking questions

about who had access to those files, we'll tip our hand and the guilty party

will run.

Any way to access those systems remotely?

Mm-mm. Already tried.

but it's air gapped it's closed off unless i can manually plug into it so

that means that we're going on a field trip okay have fun yeah

to all the killers and the hundred dollar villas this is it this is the

neighborhood huh this is it how long has it been since you've been back lifetime

i mean it's a trip man

Same air, same vibe, same energy. Or maybe I'm different, I don't know. It's

just hard to explain. I'm trying to figure out what you were like as a kid.

I was just a little kid on the corner trying to make it.

Fighting my way out.

You were a baddie, you were a quiet boy. Which one?

A little bit of both.

I was a knucklehead. Good to see you. For sure I was a knucklehead. I mean, we

were all knuckleheads.

We just didn't have a thousand cameras. What up, what up?

Recording all our mistakes.

Wow.

You really think I'm gonna drive all the way over here?

You know how much work I have to do? You're holding up my permits, okay? My

deal is on ice. Keep your voice down. No, I'm not gonna keep my voice down.

Everybody's gonna hear what the hell I gotta say. My whole project's on ice.

You know damn well that has nothing to do with me. That is ECP. It's not my

fault that we have procedures in place that keeps the community safe from shady

-ass developers like you.

Okay? What are you trying to say?

I noticed, though. The one on the right in the black. I'm trying to say that we

don't want another repeat of your Sunnyside deal, okay? Of course. When

the money falls away and all that we got left is a big-ass hole in the ground.

I'm not letting that happen here. Y'all heard that. The money conversation. Here

we go again. How much you want?

You need to get out of here right now. Oh, you're gonna whisper? No, say it out

loud. Say it with your chest, man. You're gonna insult me? Get out of here

right now!

Okay, I'm gonna leave, but I'm still fine. I know where you live with it.

Okay, you bootleg-ass mafioso. Curtis!

What's up, man? Sam. Brother, what the... I'm on, man. How you doing, my

man? You okay? Good to see you. What are you doing here?

Working, man.

Federal agent.

Oh, I'd heard, man.

Yeah. So you're team six, now you federal agent? I like that. Black Rambo,

look at you. Something like that. Yeah, something like that. Excuse me, did you

say you're a federal agent? Yeah, the feds are here for you. It's not a good

look, bro.

It's not a good look. The feds are here, y'all.

Everything's fine.

No, everything is not fine. Well, it will be fine. I just want to talk to you

about something. I'm working on your campaign. That's all.

Do me a favor. Just keep digging. You definitely gonna find us. Can you leave?

Ask him for receipts for that tie. What do you say we grab a coffee? We gonna do

that. Make sure you check all of those receipts, okay?

He ain't paid for that suit. You want anything?

Flat white, please. You know they only serve black coffee in this area.

Black coffee, it is.

Where we can talk?

Let's go this way.

So I started with Flippin' Houses, man, right in this neighborhood. Then I got

to Elmhurst and Corona, Jamaica.

Things started rolling, scaled up to four- and five-story multifamily

developments, and it was out of here. Look at you. I know. Very impressive.

It's a dirty game, though.

Dirty, dirty, filthy game. You got these shady contractors. You got the

kickbacks, the skims.

Working in New York City is a nightmare, brother.

All they do is get in the way. And then you got these crooked councilmen with

their hand out.

He was asking for a Vick? I mean, he's not asking, but he's asking.

Anyway, enough about me. How long are you in town for?

I don't know. We'll see.

I'm here for now.

Are you working?

I mean, like, you investigating something?

I mean, I know you probably can't tell me, but it's me.

There was an armored truck robbery at the Naval Corps Credit Union.

Two guards were killed.

I heard about that. Did you?

Streets talk.

What are they saying?

Oh, you think he's involved?

Yeah, he probably is.

He kind of watched that guy.

One of his employees was definitely involved, Freddie Smith. He's a vet.

Yeah, Freddie.

He's a good dude.

Yeah, I mean, he was struggling, but sorry to hear that.

Not everybody can make it out of here like you did.

What do you mean? You know who you are. You're a hero to these folks, man.

You know how many people enlisted because you did?

You're a hero.

Thank you for your service, brother.

I mean that.

Let's order some food, huh?

What they got here? What's good around here? Chicken.

Danny, have some of those wings?

Look, I'm happy to talk to you, but I don't appreciate you coming to my

campaign office.

I don't want to cause a problem for you. Well, you did.

And I guarantee you that Curtis Allen will make hay over two federal agents

raiding my office.

Boy, we didn't really raid your office.

Trust me.

When Curtis is done, they'll be saying that you tased me and strapped me to a

suicide vest.

I see.

Thank you.

Fred, his employment file.

His application.

I wish I could help you more, but the truth is, I didn't have a face-to-face

conversation with him.

No, I get it. Got a lot of people working for you. Folks believe in what

we're doing here.

Uh, his reference, a guy named Tom Daniels. Uh, you know who that is?

No idea.

Okay. But, like I said, I don't know Freddie.

For the record, I am appalled that someone in my campaign, however

tangential, would be involved in a violent crime such as this.

Tangential? That's a hell of a way to refer to a dead veteran.

I think you know what I mean.

I do.

Thanks for your time.

Mm-hmm.

Okay, make sure that it's got your signature, your phone number, and your

social security number. Make sure all that information's correct.

You distract, I extract.

That rhymed. It was supposed to.

Can I help you?

Yeah, I'm here about the job opening.

Driving an enormous car, able to lift 50 pounds, sometimes even more.

Yeah, I can lift 50 pounds.

Fill this out.

How's your bathroom?

We don't have one. You don't have a bathroom?

Where do you go?

We don't have a public bathroom.

I am having a lady issue, and I would rather not have my lady issue in your

lobby.

It's in the back.

Thank you.

Gentlemen. Okay, great. Go to the server room, and then I need you to plug

directly into the mainframe.

Mainframe, okay.

Yes.

What might that look like? Oh, boy.

Six-foot-tall, big, black metal box. Lots of blinky lights.

Sometimes there's wires coming out of it.

Oh, my bad. I'm sorry.

Okay, Sean.

Awesome. Now I need you to plug USB in, and then I should get a visual?

Into any keyboard?

Yeah. Okay.

Got it.

Great job, Eddie.

Sean, you good?

No, almost. Hold on.

Hurry up. It's called the sneak and peek warrant for a reason. I cannot hurry up.

I'm going as fast as I can.

What's going on here?

Excuse me. It's asking for references.

Can that be a family member? No.

Got it. Yeah, that makes sense. Family's always going to say something nice.

Sorry, one more. Emergency contacts. That can be family, right?

Yes. Great.

It doesn't say allergies, but I do have a few. Should I just list those? I don't

care.

Incoming.

What are you doing in here?

This place is a maze. Where is your stupid bathroom?

You can't be back here.

You know what? I'm, um... Good job, good job. Keep acting, keep acting.

Okay, Addie, we're good. Get out.

I'm good.

Thanks.

After you.

You all right?

I am James Bond. Yeah, you are.

I summon damn vines.

Take it easy.

But here's the funny part, bro.

Your man, Jalen, he married the same woman twice.

She burnt the man's house down. I'm like, bro, that's 47 red flags right

there. You know what he's saying? Oh.

Red's my favorite color.

Marry me.

Marry me. Man, they're your people. She's a good-looking woman, though. Man,

she's fine as hell. Crazy.

I would have married her three times.

It's good to see you, Curtis.

Good to see you too, brother.

This is good.

Yeah. I love this, bro.

You know, I think about you sometimes.

Yeah? Yeah.

You know, you get to an age in life where you look back on those moments and

it's like things could have went one way or the other.

Crazy. Yeah.

You know, you may not remember this.

I was like 15, 16 years old.

And I was getting in the car with Mario. We were up to no good. And I felt your

big-ass hand on my shoulder. He was like, you ain't getting in that car. You

remember that? I remember that. You remember what you said, too, right?

Mm-hmm.

What'd you say?

I was pissed off. I thought you was trying to play the big boy. Curtis, you

ain't my daddy. Yeah, yeah, I know. You ain't my daddy, Curtis. Your voice

changed. Yeah, yeah, I know. I remember. I was embarrassed.

But those kids ended up getting 12 years in prison for what they did that night.

15-year-olds robbing a crack house.

Stupid.

You're welcome.

Mm-hmm.

Could have been me. Could have been any of us.

Think about that often.

Why'd you do that?

Why me?

Just a feeling.

Mm-hmm. I knew you were worth saving.

Mm-hmm.

I knew you were meant for better things.

You're welcome.

Mm-hmm.

Think about that often.

Thank you.

Hey, man, it's what I do.

Save lives.

Someone definitely accessed the dispatch files of each robbery, but it wasn't an

employee. That USB allowed me to run a diagnostic on the server.

A virus was implanted a couple years ago. That gave backdoor access.

But the crew only knows what pickups are happening on the day of.

Hey, Nick.

I'm here with Sean and Addy. It looks like our crew hacked into the armored

car dispatch.

That's good. Can Gizmo trace it? Okay, assuming I'm Gizmo?

No, I can't trace it. They used a ton of VPNs, so I can't ping the end user. It's

really annoying.

Well, you're fired.

Um, is there anything on your end? Maybe. We're going to see a guy named

Tom Daniels. He put Freddy in a councilman's campaign, and he runs the

job placement program at the Veterans Assistant Hall in Middle Village.

Keep us posted.

Will do. Hey, ballistics from the prior robberies. None of the sniper rounds

match. Oh, he's smart.

He uses a new rifle every time. Or he swaps out the barrel.

It's cheaper than buying a whole new rifle. There's no ID required.

Well, what about the tungsten bullets? You need an ID to purchase those. Maybe

there's a record of our shooter buying them.

I doubt it. If he's smart enough to swap out the barrels, he wouldn't slip up by

buying a distinct type of round like that.

That sucks.

But it got me thinking.

I did my own reloads in Alaska.

Of course you did. With the right press, it's actually quite easy.

If our sniper was doing his own reloads, he'd only need the empty casings, the

little brass shell that holds the gunpowder. And then the tungsten bullet,

the part that actually comes out of the barrel. And there's no ID needed for

either. Well, how many places sell tungsten in the area?

I checked. There's only one in a 50-mile radius.

Run it down.

Nice work, Wyatt. Yeah.

If I may.

Go ahead.

I just kind of feel like because people can't grasp the work I do, it goes

unnoticed. So you feel taken for granted by the knuckle-draggers?

Well, they're words, but accurate.

Okay.

What were you like as a child, Sean?

I don't know. Pretty much just like this.

And what is this?

Tell me in two words.

A little smart.

And annoyed.

Hmm.

What were you like as a child?

Smart and annoyed.

Well, then I guess we're not so different.

Just a couple statuesque go-getters at the top of our game.

You're doing well, Sean.

Keep it up.

Freddie and I served together.

Ten-man squad.

We lost seven to an IED.

Freddie got concussed pretty bad.

He was really never the same after that.

Doing drugs?

Needles, pills, whatever he could get.

Wow.

Trying to kill those demons.

That's it.

If he was in such bad shape, how'd you get him in with Councilman Jackson?

I didn't. You didn't?

Your name was on his application.

That's weird.

Freddie told me he met Jackson at a food bank.

Said he offered him a job.

Jackson likes to use vets as props.

Looks good in a campaign ad.

Money never comes, though.

So let me get this straight.

The council member of Freddie... That's what Freddie told me.

I don't know why.

He puts no condition to work.

And when's the last time you spoke with Freddie?

A couple of days before he died.

He called.

Stoned. He was rambling about being grateful to me and how he was about to

get paid big time and he wanted to give some back to the program.

Did he mention how he was going to get paid big time?

I didn't ask him.

Okay. I just listened.

Sometimes that's all I can do.

Appreciate your time and I appreciate all you do here. I really do.

Thanks.

I know Councilman Jackson from my days at SDNY. He was the chief of staff for

this councilman we were looking into for wire fraud.

Slimy guy.

Yeah, he's also a liar. Thank you.

He said he didn't know who Freddie was, and he's the one who actually hired him.

Well, that could be something. It could be nothing.

Lie and deny, that's a primal response for a politician like him.

What's that?

Oh, that's interesting.

What do you got?

It's a lab report of the needle found in Freddie's arm.

Pure fentanyl.

Nobody shoots raw fentanyl. I don't care how high your tolerance is. A needle

loaded like that is a death sentence.

Unless you trusted the person who gave it to you.

Nine millimeter, custom trigger, optics-ready slide.

Basically a duty-grade pistol turned competition beast.

I feel like I'm watching you watch porn.

No, you kind of are.

Gross. Guns are for business, not pleasure.

Just hold it.

That does nothing for me.

Just hold it.

That's a nice piece. You know, right?

Hey.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

Three guys called in sick.

NCIS, we have some questions about Tungsten.

Specifically the bullets you sell for hand-loading .50 cal rounds.

Sure thing.

Do you have a buyer list?

No. No offense, but you feds already drawn us some paperwork.

Thank God we didn't have to track that stuff.

Anyone, you remember?

You can't have that many customers for something that specific.

Nice try.

Really? You're not going to help us at all?

I will do exactly what is required by law.

All right.

Hey, Wyatt, check this out.

This Councilman Wesley Jackson?

Yes, ma'am. Proud member.

He buy any tungsten bullets?

I will do exactly what is required by law.

I'm a bank robbing sniper.

Have you lost your mind? That's an insane connection to make. Okay, well,

prove me wrong.

Explain where you were when the truck got hit. I have no idea.

Talk to my assistant. We did. They said your schedule was clear. They can't

confirm your whereabouts.

You know what?

I was at home. Home.

No morning meetings. I get a chance to meditate, shut off my devices, refocus.

You're wound pretty tight, Agent Hannah. Maybe you should give it a shot.

It's a pretty convenient alibi.

This is getting boring, all right? Really. First of all, you're way out of

line for even once in a... Sorry to interrupt.

Do you remember me?

Robin Wells.

I sure do.

It's nice to see you again.

I'd heard you'd left the Southern District.

I did.

Well, this is...

A step back. No.

Oh, you're hurting my feelings. You were on a path to be attorney general.

Why did you walk away?

I guess I got tired of working with lawyers.

You and me both.

Oh, come on, Leslie.

You love lawyers.

You're always hiding behind one.

Well, when you've got the feds accusing you of being a sniper, they do come in

handy. Are you?

If I was, you'd be talking to my lawyer.

Straight talk.

Why are we here?

You lied to us about how you know Freddie Smith.

He worked for my campaign.

Said you didn't know him.

But you personally recruited him from the food bank.

Why'd you lie, Councilman?

He robbed an armored truck.

Two people died.

I can't be associated with that.

I was trying to help the kid. Maybe you were trying to exploit him. I pay my

people a fair wage.

You can ask whoever, and they will tell you.

And for the record, I am sorry about Freddie.

But I can't control what he does.

And what about the gun club?

Is that where you get all your tungsten?

Listen, I've been in that club one time.

Gun owners vote en masse.

It was a photo op.

It's politics.

I've shot a gun twice in my life. You think this is all a game, huh? Yeah,

sometimes it is. Well, you know what I think?

I think you don't give a damn about the community or the veterans.

I think you want to get your hands in as many pockets as you can find.

As deep as you can get them. I've heard that speech before.

You know where? No, I don't. Your buddy Curtis.

Curtis. You want to talk about him? We could talk about him. Yeah, let's talk

about Curtis.

He's a thug. Mm-hmm.

A blighter in this community.

He said the same thing about you.

Do you have any idea how he built his fake little real estate empire?

It wasn't from flipping houses.

It's drug money.

He borrows it, launders it, and loses it.

The guy has a bounty on his head.

You're deflecting.

He owes money to killers.

Killers who don't speak English, but you know exactly what they're saying when

they stick a gun in your mouth.

That's why Curtis was down there yelling at me.

He needs this development to go through so that he can pay what he owes.

I'm not going to do it. To hell with him.

I don't like him here.

He got in bed with the devil, and now he's got to pay.

You're looking for someone desperate enough to rob an armored truck?

I'd start with him.

Are we good?

Thank you. Keep your ass in the chair.

We need to take a look at Curtis.

If not, it could be malfeasance.

Great word.

I already took a look into Curtis a little bit.

Turns out he was right. His financials are a mess.

Last time they weren't a mess was around the time of the original robberies.

So you already checked out his books without telling me about them? I did. He

knew Freddy. He seemed like he was in trouble, so I took a look. I also found

out that he has a big-game hunting license upstate. It means he's very good

with a long gun.

Sorry, buddy. I know he was good to you. Hey, just because he was good to me

doesn't mean he's a good man.

I'm capable of making that distinction.

Let's take another run at him, see what we can find.

Okay, good. I'm with you.

I know. Guys, someone's in the armored car dispatch files right now.

The file we accessed is a $2 million pickup scheduled for an hour from now.

Okay, all right, so if we try to stop it, the sniper will probably get spooked

and takes off.

Yeah, and if we don't, another guard dies.

We pull an NYPD, do a grid search, and place the sniper would hide.

It's too late. There's too many buildings with rooftops. Yeah, but we

know exactly where they're going. It's got to narrow it down some. I know this

area. It's a dozen windows and rooftops.

I have an idea.

You ever driven a truck?

No, you.

Me.

I hate this idea on so many levels.

If something bad happens, please say nice things at my funeral, all of you.

Copy that.

Oh, there they are.

I want to catch this guy as bad as the rest of you, but just be careful.

Floyd.

Wyatt, go get the money. Let's go.

The fact that you said my given name makes me even more nervous.

Don't be nervous. Everything's fine. This is light work, okay? We got this.

Just head on a swivel, yeah?

You too.

Literally.

Sam, you good?

I got you.

That'll be out of my mind.

Out of my mind.

Shoot her down.

NCIS!

Moving.

You're supposed to be a better shot.

I hit what I was aiming for.

Give me a second.

Why'd you do it?

I made some moves.

They don't always work out.

Killed innocent people.

Innocent people, Curtis.

Come on, you know the rules of the street, man.

You're my hero.

Just keep doing you.

Huff.

Pride.

Hey. Hey.

Just want to check in?

You know, I know today it got deep in all kinds of ways.

You okay?

You

know,

when I was looking through that site, it was like I was aiming at my old self.

I wasn't sure I could take the shot.

Well, thank God you did.

You know a lot of people wouldn't have had the courage.

You want some time?

You know, step back, take a breath.

No, Robert. I have more to do. You know, I want to do something,

set an example.

You're doing an amazing job.

Oh, I need to do a hell of a lot more of that. You know, I think you've served

your country very well.

Yeah.

You know, this morning, someone tried to hand me a loft.

Say what?

Thank you for your service.

Free loft.

Wow. Well, to be fair, you know, people want to acknowledge you.

People notice you.

Yeah, people notice me because I made it out. People notice me because I came

back whole.

Freddie didn't.

And by the time they noticed them, it was too late.

And I need to fix that.

Right there in that neighborhood.

I think I can get people to care about the things that are important.

I think we can.

Yeah, we can.

Hey.

Sorry to interrupt.

Can you do me a favor?

Can you just look at me with those soft, beautiful, maternal eyes, please?

Because I almost died today.

Addie, can we get Nick a cup of hot chocolate? He's had a hard day.

Yeah. No, on it, boss.

I mean, I actually will take a cup of hot chocolate, please. A little

marshmallows, maybe.

Well, I think if anyone deserves a hot chocolate, it's Sam.

Is that what you think? Yeah.

Yeah. I mean, I was in the line of fire today, but Sam, he should have a cup of

hot chocolate. Why not, right? Yeah.

God's gift, right?

He is to us, Nick.

Sam's our alpha.

Kill me, okay?

People keep stealing my pickles.

I'm getting pretty annoyed by it. Nobody in life has ever wanted a pickle.
