DISPATCHER:
...11. What's your emergency?

[panting]

There's been a situation
at my office.

♪

Be cool, Deeks.

I'm cool! I'm totally cool.
I am the epitome of cool.

Oh, really?
I'm cooler than a
polar bear's toenails.

[laughs]

Cornflower blue.

Oh, my gosh. Okay.Ooh.

I see how this day
is gonna play out.

I just think
it's fantastic

that now that we've finally
picked out a color

for the would-be nursery--
cornflower blue--

which is an amazing color,

it's like a symbol of hope.Sweetie,

I literally closed my eyes
and pointed

at a color wheel at a Lowe's.

Now I think it's time
we start talking logistics.

What do you want to talk about?
The paint's already dry.

No, I mean, like, how this whole
thing is gonna work, lady.

What?

You and I, both of us still
being badass NCIS warriors

while raising a child,
a little, a little

Kensilina ninja baby.

Okay. That?
Yeah, we'll figure that out.

Right, no, we-we definitely--
we-we should.

We should figure that out.

Yeah. We will
figure that out later,

when we actually need to.

Right.

Or...
Or?

Or we could be
proactive about it

and start figuring it out now.

Oh, my gosh, you're so cute.

Everything is gonna
be fine, okay?

Yeah, I'm not sure
that's how this works.

Everything is
going to be fine.

[clattering, drawers thumping]

Hello?

Oh. Hey, what you doing,
big guy?

Where the hell is Hetty?

[chuckles] Get in
line, my friend.

Get in line.

You don't understand.

Oh, but I do.

No, I need to talk to her.Uh-huh.

I need to ask her something
that only she has the answer to.

Oh, I've been there.

And I need
that information today.

Preferably right now.

[tongue clicks]
Kind of sucks, doesn't it?

Nell, you're not helping me.

[sighs] Well, can I help,

or is this truly only something
Hetty knows?

I gave her something
to look after.

I gave her a box with my pins
and medals from the SEALs.

And now you can't find the box
but you need the box.

Kamran's high school graduation
is tomorrow.

I need to be
on the road by 2:00,

and I need that box before I go.

Aw, you're giving Kam
one of your pins

as a graduation present?

When Michelle was eight months
pregnant with Kam,

I made was made chief.Mm.

She could barely move,

but she pinned those anchors
on my collar at that ceremony

and told me, "You had
the hardest job in the Navy."

Well, she was right.

And I told her she was wrong.
She had the hardest job.

Hmm.She's a Navy wife,

a mom, pregnant
with a baby girl,

and she would see me even less
than she did before.

Okay, yes. You were right.

I want Kam to have those anchors

because they reflect
me and her mother.

Hmm.And I want her to know

she's never alone,

even when she's by herself.

You understand that, Nell?

Sam.

What?

You got me feeling the feelings,

and it's not even 9:00 a.m.
[clears throat]

Well, it won't work
if we don't find the damn thing.

All right, fine.

We just have to
think, "WWHD?"

"What would Hetty do?"

You don't think
I'm doing that already?

Do you want me
to help or not?

Yeah, I want your help.

Okay. Here we go.Okay. Appreciate it.

Mm.
Thank you.

[laughs]

Where's Sam?

Looking for a box?

Yeah, that tracks.Hmm.

Does it?Mm-hmm. What do we have?

Last night,
three men broke in

to Heptagon Labs, killing
almost everyone on the premises

and then stealing
its proprietary technology.

Here we go again.

Heptagon Labs is under contract
with the U.S. military

to develop the next generation
of exoskeleton suits.

What kind of
next generation?

The ones
that make you invisible.

Invisibleinvisible?

Yep. This is a prototype.

For real?

For realfor real.

Now, what these guys have built
is pretty awesome,

but the only problem is now
someone else has the technology.

You said the guys killed
almost everyone in the lab.

Who survived?

One of the engineers.
Sienna Marchione.

No criminal record.

No suspicious bank activity.

But she's one of the
lead engineers on the project.

And the only one
who's still alive?

Exactly.

Kensi and Deeks
are headed to the lab

to speak with her
now. They have more

than a few questions.Mm-hmm.

And what about
the three men?

One of them's
still at large,

but the other two
are in police custody.

LAPD already found them
and brought them in?

Actually, no.

Sienna took them down
on her own at the lab.

These guys never made
it out of the building.

Huh.

All right. Well, have them
sent to the boatshed.

Already on their way.Great.

[keys clacking]

Sienna Marchione?

I'm, uh, Special Agent
Kensi Blye, NCIS.

Sienna?

We were told you had
information for us regarding

last night's events.

Hello?

Whoa. Whoa, i-it's okay.DEEKS:
We're the ones

that'll make that call,
thank you.

Are you two with NCIS?

Why are you ignoring my partner?

Okay.

I wasn't ignoring her.

I couldn't hear her.

[earpiece beeps]

KENSI:
Sienna, we watched

the security footage
from last night.

Then you know.

It was awful.

Yeah, it was.I keep thinking

if I hadn't gotten that coffee,

maybe I could've saved
everyone on my team.

Not to mention
the technology.

I just can't believe
I walked away when I did.

About that.

Your timing
was, uh, uncanny.

It was a coincidence.

In the small window when
you were gone, someone stole

the schematics
for Heptagon's exoskeleton suit.

You say coincidence,
I say collusion.

You don't know
what you're talking about.I know

you took down two very large men
like it was child's play.

Thank you.

Where'd you learn
to fight like that?

I've been training
my entire life.

Training for what?

To serve my country.

DEEKS:
This country?Yes, this country.

Is he always

this warm and cuddly?I'm just having
a really difficult time

connecting the dots,
so maybe you just

help me out.

I come from a proud Navy family,

and it's my dream to serve

my country, but...

I've never been able to
because of my deafness.

Yeah. Military doesn't allow it.

So if they won't let me serve,
I'm gonna do everything I can

to protect the ones who do.

Which is why
you became an engineer.

DEEKS:
Working in the private sector
for a company

that contracts
with the military.

It's the least I can do.

And the most you can do.

While I wait
for someone to realize

how much I can offer my country.

And for somebody to
finally change the rules.

Thank you for sharing that.

I would never betray my country.

Understood. And apologies.

Can you tell us what
happened last night?

I wasn't gone long,
and these guys were fast.

Whoever orchestrated the heist
had help.

You think somebody
on your team was involved?

One of the engineers, Owen,
he stayed home sick yesterday.

And everyone knew

our boss, Brandon, was going
through a pricey divorce.

Maybe he was involved
and it got messy.

Okay. Well, thank
you, Sienna.

Just do me a favor.

Yeah.Name it.

Find the technology

and nail these guys to the wall.

Do you trust me?

Of course I trust you.
What kind of question is that?

Just wait here a minute.

I'll be right back.O-O-Okay.

All right, can-can I...
Can I still trust you

and be very worried
about what happens next?

Hey. Don't think about it.

Just say the first thing
that comes to your mind.

Do you want to help
NCIS on this case

and recover your technology?

Sienna, do you
understand what I'm s...

Hell yes!

Let's go.

All right. Thank you.

Any luck?

My guy's not saying
squat without a lawyer.

Yeah, same with mine.They're stonewalling us.

Whoever they are.Yeah, about that--
Fatima just called.

According to Kaleidoscope,
your guy Doug died in 2017.Mm.

My guy Randall died in 2011.

Oh, love it when that happens.Yeah.

So their IDs are manufactured.

And because they're not talking,

we have no idea
who's pulling the strings.

But I like your attitude.
It screams optimism.

I do my best.Mm-hmm.

Do we have anything yet?

Ugh. No. So, the two guys

that Callen and Sam are
interrogating are ghosts.Mm.

Facial rec and fingerprinting
are coming up empty.

It's gonna be a whole thing to
find out who they really are.

And they won't talk to us.

Well, moving on.
What about Kensi and Deeks?

So they talked to
Sienna Marchione,

who's the engineer who survived
last night's break-in.

She said that one of

the engineers was
out sick yesterday,

and the other one-- the one
who was killed last night--

was going through a
very expensive divorce.

All right. We can
work with that.

Find out if there's been
any suspicious activity

in their bank accounts,
recent travel, social media.

You got it, yeah.

So you're telling me

that Sienna Marchione and
the guy who called in sick...

Owen Winnick....Owen Winnick, are
the only two people

associated with this Heptagon
project who are still alive?

Or the person who
stole the technology

had someone on the inside,
and they used their muscle

to take them out last night
to clean up the mess.

So, we're basically

at square one here.

[laughs]Oh. Okay.
Hi, Sienna. Again.

Kensi, can I... can I talk to...
can I talk to her for a second?

Just a second?Yeah.

Cool. Hey, so, uh, Kensilina,
baby, what are we doing?

Sweetie, it's
gonna be fine.Yeah. No, no, no, no.

I-I mean, she seems like
a perfectly wonderful person

with a perfectly
nasty roundhouse,

but you can't just invite her
to work the case with us.

Why not?Why not?

Yeah.I can give you
a thousand reasons why not.

Wait. Are you
kidding me?No, I'm not kidding you.

Uh, so you know, the whispering
doesn't make a difference,

and I can read lips.

That's...
That is great.

That is...
[laughing]: That is so great.

Listen, the team is not
gonna take this well.

It's gonna be fine because
we can just register her

as a cooperating witness.

Oh, wow. How quickly
you forget your FLETC training.

The number three reasons
to kill your career:

alcohol and drug abuse,
two, uh, interoffice liaisons...

Uh, mm.Exactly.

And CWs.

Listen, it's
going to be fine.

Again, I'm not sure
that's how this works.

I'm just saying
there's gonna be fallout.

And I'm saying that
I'm gonna call Nell.Mm-hmm.

I'm going to explain
everything to her.Hmm.

And she's obviously
going to say...

Okay, I'm sorry, Kens, but
this is gonna be a hard pass.

Under no circumstances
can I allow this to happen.

Harsh.

Morning, Admiral.
Good to see you again.

Aw, come on.

Okay, just a second.Why'd you have
to go and ruin

a fine moment like that?
You were finally sounding

like you ran the place.

I'm dealing with a situation
here, sir, so...Exactly.

Now, you keep that pressure up,

add a little salt--

you know the really rough kind--

and twist that knife.

Yup. Doing my best.

What's the issue?

Are you familiar with the case?

Am I Bob Fosse?

No.

Then quit tap dancing.

Kensi wants Sienna Marchione,

one of the engineers
on the Heptagon project,

to help us work the case
as a registered CW.

Why?

It's Sienna's dream
to serve her country.

Unfortunately,

she's never been able
to join the military.

What is this, Make-A-Wish?

Sir, she's never been able
to join the military

because she is deaf.

I see. Give me the phone.

It's okay. I'm handling it.

And I said
give me the damn phone.

Sir, I am handling it.

Fine. Then you tell Agent Blye

that Sienna Marchione
can work the case.

I'm sorry. What?

You heard me.

Thanks for covering for me.

Yeah, of course.

Oh, hey, make sure
you record Kam's speech.

She asked for a funny
anecdote about you.

I just want to
see how it lands.

[laughs softly]

[laughs]

So, uh, what happens if
this box doesn't show up?

I got her a tactical
weighted training vest.

Since she's not going
to Annapolis,

she's gonna have to work hard
to keep up to par.

Every young woman's dream.It's pink.

And I got her a couple
of tickets to Italy 'cause

she always wanted to go.Okay, well,
now that's a real gift.

I was worried there
for a second.

Michelle left her
something special, too.

Really?

It's almost like she knew
she wouldn't be here

for Kam's special moments, and
she didn't want to be forgotten.

A CIA agent never knows

if their next mission's
gonna be their last.

This'll be the first one
of many she'll miss.

College graduation,
Kam's wedding.

It's a good thing that
Kam has you and Aidan.

[sighs softly]

And me, of course.

And her aunties and uncles.

Mm-hmm.

But I don't know if anyone ever
will replace her mom.

No one will.

And we'll make sure
that she never forgets

how much she meant to Michelle.

DEEKS:
I got to be honest.

I got half a mind to go in there
and unleash the full wrath

of my highly-tuned
interrogation skills

on Thing One
and Thing Two.

Well, Sam and Callen
couldn't do it,

but if you think
you've got the juice...

If I think I have the ju--
What kind of statement is that?

Of course I got the juice.
My juice is based on science.

I go in there, I make 'em
feel comfortable, cozy even.

Yeah.Right? Ask them
about their childhood,

maybe their first pets.

Ask them if they want
something warm to drink.

I mean, I would love
to see you take a swing at it.

You think the big guy there
doesn't love some hot cocoa?

Of course he does.

You don't get that big
without wolfing down

a half a sleeve of Oreos
and a liter of hot cocoa

every other fortnight.

It's the Battle
of Midway, right?

Yes. And that's the Douglas
SBD-3 Dauntless Bomber.

My grandfather was a lieutenant
on the USS Hornet.Really?

My grandfather also fought
in the Second World War.

[laughs]

No greater honor
than serving your country.

I agree.

So, my, um, my boss--
or kind of my boss--

she's really excited to
have you helping us out.

This is a dream
come true, Kensi.

Yeah?[chuckles softly]

Well, okay, then welcome to
NCIS, which stands for Na...

Naval Criminal
Investigative Service.

Another career path
I considered.

I'm impressed. [laughs]

Um, well, then this
is the boatshed,

where we bring suspects
or anybody else involved

in a case for
questioning.

But not always answering.

Is your operations center here?My God.

She knows more than
I did on my first day.

No, our ops center is
not here, and plus,

it requires a top secret
security clearance to visit.

But, um, I'm gonna do my best to
include you in as much as I can.

Thanks. This means more to me
than you could ever imagine.

[computer trills]NELL: Hey, guys.

So, I've ID'd the third member
of our notorious boy band:

Steve Tricks.

Ugh. Who picked
that fake name?

Clive Davis.

If you say so.

I've got Kaleidoscope
looking for him now.

What about Brandon?

Well, I pulled a warrant
to check out his

and Heptagon's
financials,

and to be honest, they seem
pretty straightforward.

And I just spoke to Brandon's
soon-to-be ex-wife.

A huge chunk of
the divorce settlement depends

on the success
of the exoskeleton.

So, obviously,
she didn't kill him.

NELL:
And as for Owen,
the most exciting thing

he's done was attend
the conference.

Apparently,
Heptagon had a booth there.

It doesn't surprise me.
He's not exactly the rogue type.

Well, other than you,
he's the last man standing.

So perhaps Sienna and I
can talk to Owen,

and you can do that
to that thing[rattling]

with the hot
chocolate.

NELL:
Kens, we're still not quite sure

who we're dealing with here.

So Fatima will meet you
there, just to be safe.

Copy that.Just remember
the golden rule

of interrogation.
[scoffs]
I know how to question...

Listening.[mutters]

As my dear friend Oprah
always said to me,

"The devil is
in the details."I'm pretty sure

that Oprah said,
"Love is in the details."

No, no. Oprah said,
"The devil is in the details."

I know, 'cause Ope's my...
um, she's my girl.

I'm gonna text her.

KENSI:
There she is.

Sorry. Got here
as fast as I could.

Uh, Sienna, this is
Special Agent Fatima Namazi.

Hi. It's nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Sorry. My, uh...
my signing...

my signing is
a little rusty.

[chuckles] No worries,
but thanks for trying.

All right, ladies,
let's do this.

So, uh, you and Owen
are friends?

Yes. He was very helpful when
I first started at Heptagon.

Well, let's hope
he's helpful today.

Owen? Federal agents.

[knocking]

How long has he been
out sick for?

Just since yesterday.

His car's in the driveway.

Hey. Thought I was
having a fever dream.

It really is you.KENSI:
Owen, we are federal agents.

We're investigating
what happened at Heptagon.

Can we talk to you
for a few minutes?

Oh. Wasn't expecting that.Neither was I.

Owen?

Hey, Owen,

get away from the door.
Let us in, please.

We just want to talk.

Hey, Owen, they're here to help.

[retching, vomit splattering]

Oh, my God. I'm so sorry.

Ugh. I'm so sorry.

Food poisoning.

Never eat

grocery store sushi
after 5:00 p.m.

[retching, vomit splattering]

I'm okay. I'm okay.

Yeah, that's a first.

Yeah.

Can I get you anything?[sighs]

Uh... water would be great.

Thank you.

[laughs]

She's an angel, isn't she?Mm.

She tell you we went out once?

It was the
best date ever.

But then the project

had us working overtime.

We haven't had a chance
to really reconnect,

if you know what I'm saying.

Yeah. Uh, totally. Mm-hmm.Relationships are hard.

Thanks.KENSI:
So, uh, were you

and Brandon close?Oh, yeah.

Yeah. I mean,
I was the Wozniak to his Jobs.

I mean, he probably
wouldn't even

started Heptagon
if it wasn't for me.

Did Brandon seem

upset or stressed
about anything lately?

No. No. I mean, Brandon was

the nicest person
I've ever met.

Uh, except for you, Sienna.

No, Brandon was

a brilliant inventor
that wanted his work recognized

by the world.

So this contract
was a pretty big deal?

It was the biggest.
[chuckles]

Did Brandon meet with anyone
at the technology conference?

I mean, look...

when you have tech that can
make a person disappear

in broad daylight,
I mean,

everybody wants
to meet with you.

I mean, he even took
a couple private meetings,

but he wouldn't tell me
who with.

I thought you said
you guys were close.

We were.

[sobbing]

Sorry.

Sorry.
[clears throat, sniffles]

I just can't believe
I'm referring to him

in the past tense. [sobs]

[exhales sharply]

Guess it's just you and me now.

Ooh.DEEKS:No whammies, no whammies,
no whammies.

Just got a hit
on the third suspect

who broke into Heptagon.

Yes.
I will send

Callen and Sam
to track him.

Great.
I will keep hacking away

at this tech conference list.Actually,

you know what?
Uh, your suggestion

to only chase the big dogs

really helped narrow down
the tech companies

to quite a doable list.

So doable, I think
I can take it from here.

You sure?I am so sure.

Deuces. I'm out.

So, you gonna meet up
with Kensi and Sienna?

Not, uh, just yet.

I think Kensi needed
this time with Sienna.

Hmm. How so?

I'm not sure exactly, but
when you've been with someone

as long as we've
been together,

sometimes you just know.
Aw.

Couple goals.
Huh.

Well, enjoy your free time,
my friend.

There's no such thing
as free time.

I'm-a take another shot
at Randall and Doug.

CALLEN:
Nell, we have eyes
on the vehicle.

It's parked by an old club
off Cahuenga.

Mr. Tricks hasn't
shown his face yet.

NELL:
Wow.

That club has been
closed for years.

Well, he could be
using it as a hideout.

We'll check it out.

♪

SAM:
It's clear.

Some empty magazines.

Looks like Mr. Tricky
is trigger-happy.

I been hit!

How bad is it?!I'm fine!

[gunshots]Sam, are you okay?

I'm fine. Let's go.
Just stings a little.

Sure about that?

I'm-a need you to go in front
to distract him a little.

What, you want me
to get shot, too, huh?

What, twinsies?

Go, go.

Hey, Tricky!

[gunshots]

Yo, Mr. Tricks, uh,

what do you say we have a
little conversation here, huh?!

[grunts]

[tires screeching]

[tires screeching]

You're gonna need
stitches for that.

I don't need any ambulance.
Come on.

Nell, we need an
ambulance over here.

[pills rattling]

[sighs]

I told you I don't
need any pain meds.

Well, if it's easier,
I can put 'em in applesauce.

[chuckles]

I'm gonna put it here,
in case you change your mind.

But would you at least
follow the EMT's orders

and wear your sling?

Definitely not.

KILBRIDE:
Special Agent Hanna.

Glad to see you're up
and on your feet.

Don't send me
any get well cards.

I wouldn't consider it.

What I do have to consider is
the lackluster performance

of this investigation,

and the low opinion of
the highest ranks of the Navy.

I take it you got
a call from SECNAV.

She was not pleased to hear
that the technology

that the Navy has invested
a whole crapload of money in

is still in the wind.

Well, something tells me
there's more to this technology

than just being invisible.

She didn't happen to mention
what that might be, did she?

Madame Secretary does not
owe you or any of us

an explanation
for anything.

But...

this marvel
of modern-day physics

makes not only objects

invisible to the naked eye
but also to radar

and countersurveillance devices.

It could make tanks, planes,
hell, even submarines invisible.

And revolutionize modern-day
warfare as we know it.

Glad to see you two
are catching on.

Agent Hanna,

are you sure you're up
to chasing the bad guys today?

How long has it been
since you felt

the hot lead of hostile fire

penetrate your flesh?

[sighs]

Two years, ten months,
three weeks and a day.

On that day, I got up
and finished my job.

Today is no different.

Outstanding, Agent Hanna.

First good answer
I've heard today.

You sure about that timeline?

Think you're off by a day?

Write a country music song
about that one.[chuckles]

Ooh, Owen's nice.

I mean, uh,
he's very talkative,

and I didn't think that
I'd be there for that long,

but, uh, he seems
very nice.

He is.
He's like a brother.

He doesn't like you
like a sister, though.

[sighs]He said you two went
on a date.

One date,
and it didn't feel right.

Did you smell his house?

It reminded me
of my grandmother's.

The grandmother I didn't like.

I just really got the feeling

that he might want
to ask you out again.

Oh, yeah.[groans]

Drop it.

I don't like him like that.
Like I said,

brother.

Whatever you say.[Fatima chuckles]

If Stevie Tricks was able
to call for backup,

he must be part of
a bigger operation, right?

Yeah, could be.

Like Owen said, who wouldn't
want this technology?

Well, I think the question is:
who'd be willing to kill for it?

My grandmother.

Excuse me?

The mean one.

The smell
at Owen's house.

When I was a little girl,

I had a terrible stomachache,

and my grandmother made me drink
the most disgusting syrup.

What, like, ipecac syrup?

Yes, that's it.

And it made you throw up.

That's what I smelled
at Owen's house.

So, Romeo may not be sick
after all.

Ms. Jones.

May I have a word?

Of course, Admiral.
[sighs softly]

Have a seat.

Sir, I am in the middle
of something...

Mm, okay.

[sighs]

Now, it looks like

our newest asset has
the instincts of a fox.

Indeed she does.

How do you feel about
doubting her earlier?

Oh, my concerns had nothing
to do with doubting her

or her abilities, sir.

It's just,
if Hetty were here, she...

She is not here.

[sighs]

Now, I don't make it
my business

to speculate on
the inner workings

of the mind of Henrietta Lange.

And that would be wise of you.

But she did not put you

in this position so that
you could run to her playbook

over every tough call.

But when it comes
to protecting my team

and potentially putting
a civilian in harm's way,

it would be negligent of me
not to consider

the precedents
Hetty worked to establish.

WWHD.

If you continue to ask,

"What would Hetty do?"

every time you're faced
with a decision,

you are doomed to be
a day late and a dollar short.

[door closes]

[exhales sharply]

Oh, you want a coffee
or something?

I mean, I'd offer
you a snack,

but after the holidays, we
were like-- blech-- no snacks.

Hey.

Are you okay?

You sure we shouldn't have
stayed with Fatima?

[chuckles] No.

If Owen so much as sneezes,
Fatima's gonna let us know.

What if Owen's involved?

I mean, in a case like this,
everyone's a suspect.

Everyone's gone.

What am I supposed to do now?

Look, I know this is hard,

and I'm sad to say

that is not gonna get
better for a while...

...but we have a responsibility
to you and your coworkers

to find who did this.

But what if you don't?

We're not gonna stop
until we do.

I promise you that.

FATIMA:
Hey, Kens, we got a rover.

Owen is headed to his car.KENSI: Okay.

Owen's on the move.

Stay with him.

[engine starts]Like a bad perm.

Any luck on the, uh, guys
from the parking lot?

No, but I did find out
who owns the building

where it happened.

It was recently purchased
by Tabalah-Gulf Holdings.

They're a commercial real
estate company based out of...

Let me guess, Saudi Arabia.

You guessed correctly.

The company owns multiple clubs

and retail outlets
around the world as well as

about half the buildings
in Beverly Hills.

Stevie Tricks and his guys
have any connection?

I'm not sure, but I just started

looking into the company's CEO,
Ehsan Rahman.

Isn't he, like,

a Saudi billionaire
who has his own private island?

Supermodel Island. Yep.

And it's earned its name.

He's well-known for courting
his fair share of models,

pop stars and a handful
of Hollywood starlets.

So Ehsan could be opening
a club for the rich and famous,

or he could be harboring
violent criminals.

It's dealer's choice.

I'm putting my money
on the latter.

Yeah, me, too.

Right, well, see if you can
track down anyone who works

for his stateside operations
and let us know.

Yep. Will do.

Oh, and, Sam.
Hmm?

Just wear the sling.

All right,
Owen just took an outdoor seat

at a cafe in Koreatown.

He stopped at a coffee shop.

But he's definitely not here
for a mocha latte.

[camera clicking]

Well, looks like
Owen's lunch date has arrived.

Nell, Kensi,

I'm sending
a couple pics your way.

Got it.

Oh, that's Ehsan for sure.

Why is Owen meeting
with Ehsan Rahman?

Last I heard, he was tearing
down an $80 million mansion

just to build a new $80 million
mansion in Holmby Hills.

Guys, Owen just got
a big payday.

Three million, to be exact.

So they are definitely
in business together.

Owen and Ehsan
just made a transaction.

I'm moving in.

KENSI:
Hold on a second.

Was there a keychain

to unlock the
project files?

Of course. Brandon had
to unlock the lab,

the computers,
the files every morning.

But all the files were open
when these guys broke in.

Okay, Nell, I'm pretty sure
Owen just gave Ehsan

the keys to the castle.NELL: Yeah, the data

must have been encrypted and
Ehsan needed Owen to unlock it.

Fatima, slow them down.

I'm sending Callen and Sam now.

FATIMA:
Copy that.

Hi. Uh, excuse me.
Sorry. Thank you.

Um, I am so lost.

I left my cell
phone in an Uber

and the driver just, like,
took me to the wrong place.

Can't help you.

Are you from
around here?

What's, uh...

what's your name?

Carl.

Carl.

Well, I'm just looking
for, um, Canon and Doheny.

Let's go.

H-Hey, I-I thought you
were gonna help me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.What does she want?

Directions, sir.

[chuckles]

So give it to her.

Oh, my gosh. Thank you so much.
My friends are gonna kill me.

Okay, so it's D-O-

H-E...

Um...What are you doing here?

Go. Go.

I should ask you
the same question.

[tires screeching]Whoa, whoa.

[grunting]

[grunting]

[groans]

[retching]Ugh.

You couldn't just stay at home?

[groans]

Ms. Jones,
I just got off the phone

with the secretary of defense.

I assured the secretary
that all this would be handled

by the end of the day.

You really should get
out of the habit

of making promises you may not
be able to keep, Admiral.

Tell me I won't have
to renege on this promise

and I will consider heeding
your advice in the future.

Well, unfortunately,
we lost Ehsan Rahman.

Fatima was unable
to hold him

until Callen
and Sam arrived.[sighs]

But?

But I just received confirmation
that Brandon met

with a biotech company
called Quantumgenics

at the last
conference.

And you'll never guess
their lead investor.

Ms. Jones, I am not
one of your coworkers/pals

who gets a kick
out of guessing games.

So please get to the point.

Ehsan Rahman.

He bought a huge chunk of
Quantumgenics last year.

And Mohammed Bin Salman

appointed him head of
technology division

for his new city of the future,

the Line Project.Hmm.

[tablet chimes]

Ooh. Callen,

Sam, I just got a hit
on the Escalade.

Ehsan is moving west on the 10.

Passing La Brea as we speak.

SAM:
We're not far from there.

So MBS sends Ehsan to acquire
the technology...

Or Ehsan decided he wanted

to impress his new boss
and stole it.

And ordered his heavies
to take no prisoners?

Well, the Saudis
are not exactly known

to leave clean crime scenes.

Great. Ehsan has the drive

with the invisibility tech
and the keychain.

NELL: He's probably headed
for an airport.

Can't imagine that a
guy as rich as Ehsan

doesn't have a
private jet gassed up

and ready for takeoff
at a moment's notice.

Exactly.

[engine revving]

[tires screech]

Get to the plane!

They're making a run for it.

[tires screeching]

[tires screeching]

We can't let him
get on that plane.

Cut him off.What do you think
I'm trying to do?

Can't you get in front of him?You want to drive?

Don't leave me hanging, Kens.

I never do.

[tires screeching]

Federal agents!Hands up!

Out of the car!SAM: Let me see your hands.
Get out of the car.

KENSI:
Get out.Let's go. Hands up.

Get out of the car. Get out.

Let's go. Turn around.
Right here.

SAM:
Turn around.Hands on the glass.

Hands behind your back.

I guess Supermodel Island's
gonna have to wait, huh?

Cut that a little close.

Eh, what are you gonna do?

You forgetting
something?
You found it!

[chuckles]
Course I did.
[chuckles]

I just had to think,
"Where would Hetty put

her most prized
possessions?"

And where would that be?

In a special compartment at
the back of her liquor cabinet

behind her favorite bottle
of scotch whiskey.

All right, if I wasn't in a
hurry, I'd hug you. Thank you.

Actually,
there's no need to rush.No, I missed my flight.

If I don't get on the road ASAP,
I'll miss Kam's graduation.

Sam, it's an important day,
so I made a special arrangement.

Just check your phone.

[chuckles softly]

A private jet?

[chuckles]
Let's just say

I was inspired
by today's events.

Now, that's a Hetty move.

Ooh, and that is
the highest compliment.

[door opens]But it's actually
[whispers]: a Nell move.

Oh.CALLEN:Whoa!

What are you still doing
here? You're gonna be late.

Chop, chop.

Calm down.
Nell's got it taken care of.

There's even time
for you

to swing by your place
and pack an overnight bag.

Check your phone.

NELL:
I got it covered.

Uncle Callen
should be there, too.

Thank you.[chuckles]

Uh, but how did you get
a private plane that quickly?

Uh, no. Too many questions.

Bye-bye. [chuckles]

Do we need to stop by a store
and get you a suit?

I see where you're
going with that,

and it's very funny,
very clever of you.

But the fact is I
actually do have a suit.

[both chuckling]

[door closes]Did I get
that right?

SIENNA:
You're a quick learner.

[chuckles] Thanks for
hanging out with Sienna.

No, the pleasure
was all mine.

All right.

Get out of here, Castor.

Sit.

The problem is
it's really awkward

to hug someone
when you're on a couch.

Bring it in.

[both chuckling]

Thank you.

Please. Thank you.

You don't know
how much today meant to me.

It shouldn't be
so hard

to convince people
that I'm capable,

but it is.

So what's next?

Advocacy.

Awareness that there are
people like me--

a lot of people like me--
out there who all want to serve.

Hmm. You know, our team
would be really lucky

to have someone
like you, Sienna.

And you will.

One day.

One day.

Got it.

[both chuckling]

Hmm.

Oh.

Hello, Admiral.

You know, Nell, I am very proud

to have devoted
my life...

...and my life's work

to the U.S. military.

Hmm.

That's nice, sir.

And 99 times out of 100,
I think we get it right.

Well, those are
pretty good odds.

Yeah, yeah. They're fine.

Should I... break out the gin?

Because your tie is undone, and
I'm finding that I'm not sure

how to read this situation.
[chuckles]

Couldn't you just let
an old, tired man talk?

Ah.

Of course.

I just...

[exhales] I think
it's important to remember

that we don't get
everything right.

Sorry, I'm not quite sure
what it is you mean, Admiral.

Well, that Sienna...

she was really something today,
wasn't she?

Yes.

Yes, she was.

Yeah.Mm.

Yeah.

Hey. Get a chance to say goodbye
to Sienna?

Uh, yeah.

Actually, we're going hiking
next weekend.

She's never been to Westridge.

Oh, that'll be so fun. You could
also do Sullivan, Kenter.

You could do, uh, uh, Latigo,
which goes all the way

up the spine, Santa Monica
Mountains...
Yeah. Sorry,
I didn't really mean

to start talking
about hiking trails.

Oh. Sorry.

What, do you want to...

you want to talk
about something else?

Yeah. I do.Um...

So...

I didn't know how to
communicate this this morning,

but, um...

after meeting Sienna
and hearing her story,

it just made me realize that

we can do everything right
to start a family--

you know, I can
take all my shots

and you can read
all the best books,

we can go to the best
fertility doctors in the city--

but...

...just sometimes stuff
doesn't work out. You know?

Even if we
have a plan.

And, um...

there's nothing
we can do about it.

Okay. Um...

Well, we will cross that bridge
if and when we get to it.

And we'll do it...

we'll do it together.

Yeah.

I just can't talk
logistics right now...

I know.
I totally realize that.

And I've been...

a big dumb jerk.
[sighs]

No, you're not a jerk.
It's just, uh,

if we talk logistics,
then, you know,

we're-we're m-making a bet
that it's gonna work out.

And we just-- we
can't count on that.It's...

You know what I'm
saying? It's like...Yep, yep. I totally get it.

It's okay.Okay.

It's okay.

[exhales]

I'm sorry.

I love you.

I love you, too.
