NCIS (2003–…): Season 11, Episode 10 - Devil's Triad - full transcript

Pick up. Come on, pick up.

Hey, it's me.

We need to talk.

I can explain everything.

Call me.

No!

NCIS Season 11 Episode 10
Devil's Triad

Synchro: Gaillots & Kujathemas.

Rereading: Bruno.

Then there's your medical history...

the LI-90 for life insurance,

the DA-93...

You're lucky this is just
a temp Joint Duty assignment.

Just a few forms left.

Like the Notification
of Personnel Action,

the TA-44

and the background questionnaire
for your new security clearance.

Roda.

Bishop's gonna be useless
for the next week.

- Should we rescue her?
- No.

If she can't handle Roda,
Gibbs is gonna melt her brain.

And I'm gonna need...

the DD-817 ASAP.

This is actually version 6045.

The DoD is up to v49 on the DD-817.

Black pen only, no smudges.

And don't test me...

kitty-cat.

I can see you, gentlemen.

What just happened?

- Did I do something wrong?
- No, you just passed your first test.

Roda, from HR... legendary.

But don't get too cocky.

Still got to take that polygraph.

I have to take another polygraph?

And then all you have to do is survive
Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs.

In case you haven't heard...

He's actually
coming up behind you right now.

You're not supposed to do that.

What did I do now?

You've made a friend.

Grab your gear.

Got a dead Marine
in Potomac Heights.

You waiting on something, Bishop?

I don't have any gear.

Good. You can drive.

Corporal Ron Flegman,

23, stationed out of Quantico,
worked in the motor pool.

He live here alone?

Upstairs.
Already spoke with his CO.

Solid Marine, stellar evaluations.

Not much else.

If this was a mugging,
it was a really bad one.

We got a witness.

He saw someone enter the back of
the building just prior to the shooting.

We even got a sketch,
courtesy of Magic Fingers here.

Here you go.

That's a clown.

A street performer, yes.
See, there weren't very many details,

so I used Jumpy, from Jumpy's Funhouse,
as a template.

Jumpy had this really big,

like, this, like, red nose,
and when he smiled,

he... It was this kids show
I used to watch,

when I was little.

We were told there were several
street performers who work the area.

With any luck,
maybe Jumpy the Clown had a permit.

Check the licensing office.

Pull every permit on the block.

Nice.

Oh, thank heavens we're indoors.

It's been a brutal week.

And I have a chill
I just can't shake.

Me too. Anybody mind
if I do some jumping jacks?

- Yes.
- Yes.

Preliminary cause
of death appears to be

two gunshot wounds to the chest.

Yeah. From medium range.

Would you care to take
a closer look at the wound?

Sure.

Note this one.

It's oval in shape,

which means that the bullet
penetrated the skin at an angle.

Can you get a trajectory from that?

Well, possible trajectory, yeah.

Very astute.

Also, we get a core temperature,

we can approximate time of death.

Boss, he's got a second cell phone.

- Anything on it?
- It's password-locked,

but looks like he received

almost a dozen missed calls
just prior to the shooting.

Maybe somebody was trying
to warn him.

I know that number.

Adams House hotel.

Doesn't your dad always stay there?

Yes, but...
no, no, no.

He's at a skin peel retreat,

300 miles away, so there's no way.

You know,
checkout's in half an hour.

Whoever called him
might still be there.

McGee, you got the crime scene.
DiNozzo, with me.

That... that was...

that was fast.

Fast.

Manager said the calls
came from room 103.

Registered to Mr. Smith.

I'm gonna go with "alias""
what do you think?

Manager coming to open it up?

She gave me the key.

Since it's two minutes
after checkout, technically,

we have a right to enter.

That's funny,
that looks like your ex-wife.

Champagne first, and then...

a little...

Well, tie me up and call me Loretta.

Wowzers.

This is not what it looks like.

Right.
We were just...

- I do not need the details.
- I wouldn't mind a few details.

Zip it, windbag. Not another word.

What are you talking about?
The cat is out of the bag.

It just sort of happened, okay?

We were gonna tell you.
We just kept it hush-hush because...

She's married.
Because we're concerned

that Emily won't take it well.

She's 13, this can be...

confusing.

And Victor and I are separated,
we're getting a divorce.

Your turn. What the hell
are you doing in our room?

Well, we got a dead Marine.

His cell phone got
a call from this room

- just prior to his murder.
- That's impossible.

We've been in this room since last
night, and I haven't used the phone.

But I'm getting a feeling she has.

Could I speak with you?

Privately?

- If you'd like to be shot.
- Okay, fine. I used the phone.

But not to call some Marine.

I was trying to call
my boyfriend Eddie.

Oh, that's funny.
It sounded like you said boyfriend.

Ex-boyfriend, now.
I was calling to break it off.

While I was in the bathtub?

You had a boyfriend
while I was in the bathtub?

He never picked up.

So, you don't know
Private Ron Flegman?

It's probably her fianc?e.
This is unbelievable.

No, I've never heard
that name in my life.

No, you know what?
You need to calm down.

You just said it yourself,
this just sort of happened.

So, yes, fine, you caught me.
I was dating someone else.

But, you know,
it was a little innocent overlap.

Any idea why our victim would have
your boyfriend's cell phone?

Ex-boyfriend, and no.

But, you know, I gotta say,

I'm not that surprised that Eddie is
mixed up with some dead guy, because

I mean, huh, he was, he was fun.

- I don't need the details.
- But there was, something wasn't right.

I kept catching him
in these lies and...

he has no credit history.

Everybody has one.

Enough! Let's go arrest him.

No. We're gonna talk to him first.

- I knew you were gonna say that.
- Crime scene's locked up.

Thought I'd come by and se...

What?

So, Agent Fornell was married
to Gibbs's ex-wife?

And the owner

of the second cell phone
from our crime scene

was dating Gibbs's ex-wife?

That's quite a coincidence.

I know. It really is.

You know, it's hard to imagine

the same woman liking Fornell
and this Eddie guy.

Although, maybe Diane liked him
because he's not Fornell.

Best leave
the psychoanalysis to Ducky.

If you value breathing.

Bishop, you could have warned me.

You said I wasn't supposed
to do that.

What are you doing here?

Just thought
you might need some help.

Diane's really worried,
I just want to put her mind at ease.

You shot me in the caboose.
You owe me.

Meet Eddie Macklin.

Diane Sterling's... boyfriend.

Ex-boyfriend.

He's 31 years old
and works at a local climbing gym.

Yeah, and...?

And that's it, we couldn't find
anything prior to six months ago.

No parking ticket,
library card or bus pass.

Interesting.

Let's go ask him about it.

Yeah, I knew him.

He came in about six months ago,
looking for a job.

He teaches our Basic Climb class.

His chest is bigger than Diane's.

You know where he is?

No. And he actually blew off
a private lesson this morning.

But I don't think Eddie was
a big fan of the student.

How about this guy?
You know him?

Yeah, that's him.

That's Eddie's student.
Geez, what happened?

Corporal Flegman was shot.

We found Eddie's cell phone on him.

We'd like to talk to him about it.

- Among other things.
- I knew Eddie was trouble.

- Just something off about him.
- You know where we can find him?

- I don't know... his apartment?
- Uh, it's empty.

No car registration with the DMV.

That's weird. He has a car.

I got the info on his employment
application. Let me get it.

Yeah, suspect's vehicle is
an '88 silver Lincoln Town Car.

It's a DC plate.
Have Bishop run the BOLO.

Grab a bite?

- I'm good.
- Beer?

Long day, Tobias.

What the hell am I doing, Gibbs?

I feel like I've been swallowed
by a python, cut my way out

and then crawled back inside again.

Sounds about right.

Are we making a mistake?

Depends.

You mean?

What are you looking for?

Not just sex,
if that's what you're getting at.

- Don't get me wrong, no,
- Stop.

Just stop.

I'm just saying that there's
something different this time.

Maybe because we're exes.

You should try it. I mean...

with another one of your ex-wives,

not this one,
'cause this one's... taken.

Can I go home now?

You are the worse advice giver
I've ever met!

Don't quit your day job.

I think...

as long as you're happy,
that's all that matters.

Happy?

What's that got to do with anything?

It's my neighbor.
She watches Emily.

What'd she do now?

No, I'll go.

She didn't come home
for dinner again.

Third time this week.

I've got to go prowl
the mall looking for her.

Rain check?

I can wait.

No way in hell am I living
with either of them,

if they're back together.

Can I stay one more night
at your house, Uncle Gibbs?

We can watch African Queen again.

- Your parents want you back.
- They didn't want me back last night.

I'm 13... they'd let me
emigrate to Jupiter

if I could get a ride.

Morning. I entered Eddie Macklin's

vehicle information
into the NCIC database,

along with a physical description.

Then I sent out copies
to all law enforcement agencies.

And I just felt...

You can just say "BOLO's out".

BOLO's out.

He actually told me you're doing great,
but you need to relax a little.

Can't say I disagree.

- Emily.
- Thank you.

Do you have any idea
what kind of trouble

- you are in, missy?
- Me?!

You're the one
who's ruining your life.

I beg your pardon?

Or are you too desperate
at this point to care?

Apple doesn't fall far
from the tree, huh?

- How dare you talk to me like that.
- You and Dad

speak to each other?
All you guys do is fight.

We do not fight.

We are just very loud!

Best let them wear
each other out before I get into it.

And you!
How could you do this to me?

No one is doing anything to you.

Your mother and I are just...
Wait a second.

How exactly do you know about...

- your mother and me?
- I know everything.

I put a keystroke logger
on both your Facebook accounts.

- You what?!
- You need a warrant to do that!

I cracked the suspect's cell phone.

There are boatloads
of juicy texts on there

from him to Fornell's ex-wife.

I mean, this stuff is-is kinkier
than Fifty Shades of Grey.

You have got to come see this...

Ex-wife.

Daughter.

You get back here or I will smash

- every computer in that lab!
- Don't you touch my babies!

Can I apply for asylum?

Abs, I hope you told Gibbs
to come alone

'cause Fornell's head would explode
if he saw these texts.

- Better get a mop.
- Tony! If you value your life,

- you'll turn off this right now!
- Touch that CPU and I touch you.

I can't hear you.
I have a sinus infection.

I have to go get my neti pot.

What happened?

I'm prepared for any contingency.

You are interfering
in an ongoing investigation.

- Turn that computer back on.
- Okay, Tobias,

I sent most of those texts before you
and I were back together again,

so... they're inadmissible.

Okay.
Just show me the texts

that Mata Hari here sent
after we got our game on.

Let's see how innocent
that innocent overlap really was.

- Everybody still alive?
- Yes, just wounded.

- By betrayal.
- Where's Emily?

Conference room with Bishop.
And she's fine.

You got anything besides
Diane's texts?

The suspect, um, sent
a few texts of his own.

He mentioned a safety
deposit box at a local bank.

Who'd he send them to?

A burn phone
with a black market number.

So something is
definitely afoot here.

You got the name of the bank?

- Let's go check it out.
- Slow down.

I want Diane to come along
so she can I.D.

her ex-boyfriend
from the security tapes.

So?

So I'm not bringing both of you.

The locksmith is almost finished
with the safe deposit box.

Let me go check
on the security footage.

- Would you like something to drink?
- No, I'm good.

I'll take a water.
One straw,

two pieces of ice,
three slices of lemon.

What the hell am I doing?

I feel like I drove into a ditch,
towed my car out

and then drove right back in again.

Oh, God,
please don't make me do this.

This is all your fault.

What?

If you hadn't shot
Tobias in the ass,

I wouldn't have had
to nurse him back to health.

He was so vulnerable.

You know,
his pride was so wounded and...

Then one night I was
helping him with his bath...

Stop.

What is wrong with you two?

I just need to know
if you think we're making a mistake.

It depends.

What are you... looking for?

I just want to...

wake up next to someone I love.

Here's Mr. Macklin's safe
deposit box

and the security footage.

He rented the box a month ago.

There's been a lot of activity
since then.

Define "a lot".

He's been here over ten times
in the last three weeks alone.

Who stores stationery
in a safe deposit box?

Perhaps he removed the important
contents on his last visit.

Let's see his last visit.

That's Eddie right there

He doesn't appear
to be carrying anything.

Who the hell is she?

- Looks like a girlfriend.
- Girlfriend?

While we were dating?
That two-timing

- son of a...
- Hey. Diane.

While you were dating Eddie,

you and Fornell were...

Forget it.

- Did she have to sign in, too?
- No, just the box's owner.

- Well, we're gonna have to find her.
- We will. Relax.

She's our only lead to Eddie.

The bullet fragment

bounced around the acetabulum,
flew up to the iliac crest...

Before exiting just below the coccyx.
I'm telling you, it's amazing.

Let me guess.
The JFK Magic Bullet Theory?

Oh, actually it's...
Agent Fornell's heinie.

I'm sorry. Uh...

to what do we owe the pleasure?

Pleasure, no.
But...

I do need to better
familiarize myself with...

actual dead people.

Who are dead.

I thought you might be able
to help me.

You've come to the right place.

Say hello again
to Corporal Ron Flegman.

We confirmed that the gunshots
were the cause of death,

but that is really just the start.

For example, the...

Postmortem lividity on the body
indicates that the victim

wasn't moved after the murder.

That-that is...
that is correct.

However,

the bruise on the front
of his calf there,

- it indicates that...
- He was diabetic.

Necrobiosis lipoidica,
I think it's called.

That's also correct.

I took the liberty of reading
the Handbook of Autopsy Practice

this weekend.

The whole thing?

It's-it's over 600 pages.

It was 596, actually.

It was really cool.

Happy first official joint duty

BOLO to you.

It's a very special moment.

Blow out the candle.
Make a wish.

My BOLO on Eddie Macklin came in?

Your wish came true.

Airport police found his car
in a long-term parking facility.

Rock on. Let's go get it.

We are.
You aren't.

You have a little appointment
with the polygraph person.

- Already?
- Don't worry. It's gonna be fun.

Polygraphs...

Who doesn't love talking
about themselves?

I was dropping Emily off at school.

I heard you found
Diane's ex-boy-toy's car.

Yeah, he left it in long-term
parking at the airport.

What a pile of junk.

Hath the woman no shame?

Can you believe he's half her age?

I guess you weren't stallion enough,
Chuckie.

Agent Fornell, I swear, we never...

Diane told me the same thing,
and I believed her,

though current circumstances

are throwing a bit of cold water
on her credibility.

You run down the flights out
of the airport?

Yes.
There's no Eddie Macklin listed.

So why was he parked there?

That's not the half of it.

Not only did we find
a clown nose in the trunk

but we also found blood on...

Abby. We're supposed to wait
for Gibbs to get back.

Oh, right. Never mind.

You found blood in the car?

Minute traces of it everywhere.
We think someone tried to clean it up.

But I was still able
to detect blood proteins

from at least four separate victims.

What... You're saying
that Diane's ex

was some kind of serial killer?

We interviewed the street performers
licensed in the area

where Corporal Flegman was killed.

- They all had alibis.
- And very large shoes.

At the moment,
that leaves one remaining suspect.

Diane Sterling's ex-lover, and owner

of a Lincoln with multiple
blood stains in it.

What, Diane?

- Well, have you found him yet?
- No, we have not found him yet.

Same answer as the last four times
when you called.

We found circumstantial evidence

in this car linking him
to Flegman's murder,

but no indication
of his current whereabouts.

What, Tobias?
Aren't you with Diane?

- Are you holding anything back?
- No, I am not holding anything back.

I will tell you
when I have something.

Fine.

I can't believe I was so worried
about that polygraph.

I mean, at NSA,
they ask you everything.

As in, like, everything.

I'm surprised you guys don't have,
like, more personnel issues with how...

I am interrupting something.

Do you want me to leave?

No. I want you to work.

That means we tell him what we know.

So far, no luck using facial recognition
to track our mystery woman.

I'm still working on it.

And Abby hasn't gotten any hits

on the blood samples
we found in Eddie's car.

Total is five individuals.

All right, expand the BOLO.

I want this guy's photo

in every train station,
in every bus station.

That's a bad idea.

I mean...
I might have a better idea.

Eddie is coming back.
If he was ditching his car,

there are easier places
to abandon it than at an airport.

We should put it back and watch it,
and when he comes to pick it up...

We grab him.

Absolutely not.

We follow him, see what he does,
where he goes, then we grab him.

Works for me.

I got the first shift.

Don't tell anybody where I am.

Why do you always go for the gun?

What are you doing here?

Don't worry, I'm not gonna stay.

I know.
It wasn't the question.

Tobias and I had a family
dinner planned with Emily,

and she left us a message,
saying she had other plans,

so I thought
maybe she'd come back here.

Try the mall.

Yes, that's where I'm going right now,
thank you.

I will let you know.

I hope you and your gun
have fun together.

Can't believe she missed me.

Who doesn't check the closet
when they're clearing a house?

Who doesn't turn off cell phone
when hiding in a closet?

Wasn't my cell phone.

I forgot I set my Happy Cat
Friend Alert Watch

to let me know when the Columbo
marathon started tonight.

Have to tell your mom.
She's worried.

I know. I know.
Just give me two minutes.

I need your help.

All right, what do you need?

I want you to help me convince
my parents to break up.

They listen to you.

And you know they aren't right
for each other. You've seen them fight.

They fighting a lot?

In public, yeah.
It's like they have a fetish for it.

When it's just the three of us,
it's not so bad, I guess.

But you know this will end badly.

Yeah, it might.

Then I get to watch them
break up all over again.

I'm confused.

You don't want them together?
Or...

you're scared
that they're gonna break up again?

Why would I be scared of that?
It's what I want!

Wait.
Now I'm confused.

You suck at this!

- Yeah, it's Gibbs.
- Bishop and I are at the airport.

Eddie's back. He picked up his car.
We're tailing him now.

- Yeah, stay with it. Let me know.
- Will do.

Two minutes are up, kid.

Let's get you home.

Give me a sit-rep.

Eddie drove all night. I think he was
trying to see if he had a tail.

He finally came here, parked his car
and disappeared.

- Fornell's covering the rear.
- Okay. DiNozzo, you're with me.

McGee, Bishop, you got the exit.

We're clear.

Looks like Hannibal Lecter's
little hobby center.

I got this.

Get on the ground,
put your hands on your head!

Where do you think you're going?

Oh, come on.

Senior FBI Agent Tobias Fornell.

I believe you know my wife.

Is he gonna hit me again?

No. And...

And I apologize for that.
We just really needed to talk to you.

Yeah, about what?

Aren't you gonna ask what happened?
Flegman was a student of yours.

What happened?

You slept with my wife!

What happened...

was that...

your student was murdered
with your cell phone on him.

And then you disappeared.

Why is your car

covered with blood?

And what's with that little shop
of horrors we found you in?

That storage unit...
that ain't mine, bro.

I suppose this isn't yours, either.

We found 20 more of those hidden
in the storage unit.

That's almost 100 grand.

It's a lot of cash
for a gym teacher.

I need to get out of here.

Now. If he thinks
I took off with his money...

Who?

You ain't arrested me.

Everything you got
is circumstantial.

So some people
cut their fingers in my car.

You got any bodies,
aside from this loser

who took the wrong cell phone
at the gym?

I know my rights, man.
You got to arrest me or let me go.

What's it gonna be, fellas?

Yeah, that's what I thought, too.

Hold on.

What is that?

Arrest it is.

Our forensic tech traced the blood
in your car to an unsolved

quintuple homicide.

So, sit down,
you walking midlife crisis!

This is nuts, man!
I didn't kill anybody!

That blood is ten years old!
The car's from a police impound!

So how are you driving it?

'Cause my name isn't Eddie Macklin.

It's Special Agent Edward McKenzie.
I work for the Secret Service.

And you two are about to blow
a highly-classified six-month op.

Our financial crimes division has been
working a money-laundering case

for over year.

We traced one of the sources
of the cash to the Tower Gym.

I went in undercover.

Found out the cash came from
a bank-robbery gang run by the owner,

Elijah Banner, and his girlfriend.

There's our mystery woman
from the bank.

He told me to rent a safe deposit box
there so she and I could case the place.

- Were you casing her, too?
- Sorry, guys.

Boss, she's like a cat.
When she found out...

Hello, Diane.

I heard we broke up.
Sorry about that.

And I'm a Secret Service agent.

I heard.
What's with the attitude?

Don't know. Maybe it's you were sleeping
with your ex while we were dating.

Man has a point.

You guys are buddies now?

We were thinking of starting a club.

Watch it, boys.

I know something
about each and every one of you

you don't want anybody else to know.

And I got a Twitter account.

We need to get back to work.

Hey, let go of me!

- You take your hands off me right now!
- Sorry.

So, how was Corporal Flegman
involved?

Flegman drove the getaway car,
but Elijah thought he was skimming.

Looks like Elijah
finally did something about it.

- Why haven't you taken this guy down?
- He keeps his hands too clean.

We need to catch him in the act.
When you picked me up,

I was collecting gear
for his next robbery.

But if he thinks
I took off with his money,

six months of work
goes down the drain.

We can get him for Flegman's murder.

No way he pulled the trigger.

I'm guessing it was his girlfriend.
She's the clown.

Freelances at kids' parties.

We want to get this guy,
we need to put the money back,

and I need to get back on the street
before he notices I'm gone.

It's Elijah.

He's noticed.
I got to answer it.

Yeah, put it on speaker.

Yo, E, what's the word, man?

Cut the bull,
I know you got pinched.

Put agent Fornell on the line.

You got something of mine.
I got something of yours.

Dad, I'm in a white van,
no windows, I can smell pine...

You ever want to see
your daughter again,

you give me back my money.

I'll be in touch.

I said everybody, every asset we have.
He's got my daughter, for God's sake.

We found a camera hidden
in the storage locker.

Must be how he knew we had his money.
He watched us collect the evidence.

We need to be ready when he calls.

I have friends standing by
to help trace the callback.

His apartment's been cleaned out,
he's running.

Any word on the BOLO?

Police are stopping
every windowless white van they see.

Your daughter was very brave.

They found a broken window
in the kitchen.

- He was in our house.
- It's gonna be okay, babe.

Okay.
It's okay.

Emily's gonna be all right.

- DiNozzo, what do you got?
- Elijah's girlfriend is dead.

Looks like he's tying up loose ends.

You got any idea where he's going?

Well no, but he's not improvising.

We found surveillance photos
of Fornell and Emily.

Elijah probably started making
exit plans the moment

you two showed up at his studio.

Zeroed in on your daughter
as a lever he could pull.

- Blocked call.
- Tony, keep us posted.

Will do.

I just texted you my location.

I want you to send that girl.

The one who helped you clear out
my storage locker.

She's got eight minutes
to bring me my money

by herself.

Once I'm safely away,
I'll tell you where you daughter is.

She's fine. But if you even think
of sending anyone else, I'll know.

And your daughter
will pay the price.

Okay, but just so we're
on the same page:

if so much as touch a hair
on my daughter's head,

so help me God, I will find you.

And I will rip
your eyes out of your face

and shove them
so far down your throat

you'll need a proctologist
to read the evening paper.

He hung up.

What's the move, Boss?

No, this is your call, Tobias.

Bishop, you're the analyst.

Is he gonna let my daughter go
if we give him his money?

- Yes. He's demonstrated...
- I've got it.

I just need to know
if you are up for this.

Then we give him his money.

No tricks.
You can catch him later.

We just want our daughter back.

Comm check.

Yeah, we read you.

- How you doing, Bishop?
- I'm fine, surprisingly.

Tell Agent Fornell I can do this.

He's in the conference room
with Diane, but, will do.

I guess I just sit somewhere
and wait?

No, keep moving.

Avoid a static blind spot.

Remember, this guy's a killer.
You don't want him sneaking up on you.

Okay, less fine now.

Wait, I see something.

There's a jogger approaching.

Right build.

It's him, no white van.

All right.

- Dump the cash in here.
- Okay.

Where's Emily?

Take this.

Wait here.

When I'm clear,
I'll call you with Emily's location.

That was the deal.

It's done.

I've lost sight of him.

But he gave me a cell phone, said he was
gonna call with Emily's location.

Any way to find out
where that cell's been?

We can run its IMEI number.

Right. If we find out where it's been,
we might be able

- to figure out where he's going.
- Do it.

Okay, it'll just take a minute.

What was that noise?

I don't know.

Give me a sit-rep.

Okay, this doesn't make any sense.

There's no upside to killing her.

He's made all the right moves
so far.

So what's the play?

He can't use the white van to get away.
Emily's description made sure of that.

Bishop, report.

Okay,
he doesn't want to risk calling.

But he has to know
if Emily isn't found ASAP,

he's looking at an AMBER Alert.

Then he'll never get away.

So, how does she get found?

He painted the van.

Damn it.

Wait, wait, wait!

You okay?

Okay, you're okay.

You're okay. I'm gonna
get you out of here, okay?

Hang on.

Dad.

Mom.

I'm so glad you're all right.

I love you.

I was so worried about you.

Nice work.

Thanks.

Next time you take
your earwig out of your ear,

Bishop...

I'm gonna use a staple gun.

Yeah, I was worried if the Fornells
found out about the cell phone...

Yeah, I know.

Like I said...

Nice work.

Thanks.

I need another hug.

- I am so proud of you, baby.
- I am, too.

- Are you really okay?
- I'm fine. He didn't hurt me.

I was just so worried
about you guys, are you okay?

We're just so happy
that we're all together again.

And we're just so glad
that you're safe and you're back.

Hey, any word?

Nothing.

No sign at the airports
or train station.

McGee's talking to Highway Patrol,
but I got a sinking feeling he got away.

He didn't get away.

My last name is Fornell, after all.

Freeze.

You're under arrest.

No. Move...

so I can shoot you.

I'm not carrying a cell.

This bike's untraceable.
How'd you find me?

We didn't.

My daughter did.

Say hello...

to her Happy Cat
"Friend Alert" watch.

It's Bluetooth enabled.

It beeps any time a friend wearing
the same watch gets within 30 feet.

Course, I had to boost
the range on the second watch

- to track you, but...
- That little bitch.

Watch your mouth.

I'd hate to get suspended, and Agent
Gibbs already has enough paperwork.

I should have never let her go.

I'm sorry, Gibbs.

It's okay.

- Told you he'd run.
- Hey! Hey, hey.

Come on.
We just came to say thank you.

You already said thank you.

This time we brought liquor.

Then, you're welcome.

And we have a request.

I can't wait.

Will you stop with your whining?

I mean, you're a grown man.
It's unattractive.

What are you doing?

We're need a favor
and you're insulting him.

It's like he lost his dolly.

He hasn't said five words
since he's got here.

Anyway, we'll be out of your hair
in a minute.

It's just...

It's just that...

You've probably noticed that...

Tobias and I...

clearly gluttons for punishment...

are trying to make
a second go of things.

For Pete's sake.

We want your blessing.

My what?

Your blessing.

It's very important to Diane.

And me.

That we have your blessing.

Why?

Because it...

What is with the 50 questions,
do we have it or not?
