NCIS: Los Angeles (2009–…): Season 5, Episode 1 - Ascension - full transcript

Janvier.

What are we gonna
sell this year?

A nuclear bomb.

He took it off one

joint at a time.

Tracking device.

Can't be removed.

The deal will be done.

Very good.

I have a daughter,
16 years old.

She lives in Paris.



Bring me
one of the Russian women alive.

Sidorov is going
to kill your beloved

partner.

Is Quinn agent?

No.

Michelle!

Kensi!

Michelle!

Hang on.

Go! Go!

Hetty, I need an ambulance now.

28-year-old



female, high-speed
motorcycle crash victim.

Helmeted, no L.O.C.,

multiple contusions
along neck and spine.

Maya Yerzov, former
Russian special forces.

We know everything
about you.

Not now.

BP 118/76, pulse 94,

in full spinal immobilization
for mechanism.

You're about to spend
the rest of your life

in a federal prison unless

you give us Sidorov's location.
Back off!

Does it meet
trauma-center criteria?

Any neurologic deficits?

Checking.

Maya,

we're gonna use this
to test your foot,

so you tell me
if this feels sharp,

okay?

Okay.

You feel that?

No.

Okay, let's try the other side.

What about that?

Anything?

No.

Am I paralyzed?

We just have to get you
to the hospital quickly.

Radio in.

We need a neurosurgeon to meet
us, and have them hold an O.R.

No, no.

Tell the driver
to pull over.

What are you doing?

Tell him to pull over... now.

Michael, pull over
for a second.

Copy that. What's up?

Just pull over.

If she doesn't get
treatment immediately,

she will be paralyzed.

There are two federal agents'
lives on the line.

You tell me

what Sidorov's location
is immediately.

Oh, my God.

u want to spend
the rest of

your life in a wheelchair?
Is that what you want?

Nyet.

Then tell me where he is!

It's an auto body shop.

East 14th and Elwood.

Eric, you got that?

Checking.

There is an body shop
at that location.

Sidorov's Mercedes
is parked in back.

The good news is, you're
gonna be just fine.

Ow!

I felt that.

The bad news is...

this little piggie's
going to prison.

- Mr. Callen.
- Yes?

We found Sidorov's location.

Okay.

You're gonna
finish this deal.

Or what?

You're gonna punch me
in the face again?

I'm thinking about it.

If you send me out there,

it would give me a chance
to escape.

You'll be on a leash.

Many a mad dog has broken
their leash, Agent Callen.

Good luck with that.

Call Sidorov,

and then you call
Vaziri, set up a meet.

And the game continues.

Oh, by the way,

have you recovered
Agent Hanna's body yet?

Are you there, Agent Callen?

I'm here.

Watching and listening.

It's a complicated relationship
we have.

I consume you,
and you consume me.

It's not complicated.

It's obsessive.

Sad.

You might be right.

You know that tracking spray
on your neck doesn't wash off.

Oh, yes.

My collar.

Collars are for animals.

Don't flatter yourself.

They're here.

Get close to them quickly.

- Kens.
- Yes?

Go.
Done.

I got Sam.

Deeks?

Deeks, no.

Deeks?
Oh, no.

Deeks?

Sam? Sam?

Hey, it's me. It's me.
You got to...

It's me.
You got to get me out of here.

Agent Hanna, look at me.

Come on, Sam.

You know who I am?

Yeah.

Kensi, the kit.

You got to cut me loose.

We don't have much time,
and I... I can't.

What? What?
What are you...?

What's happening?

You have to stay here
just a while longer, okay?

I'm sorry.

Kens.

Go.
Party's over.

They're leaving.

Isaak!

You sent Barbies
after me?

I hate Barbies.

I used to pull their heads
off when I was a kid.

How did you find me?

A Barbie told me.

Right before
I pulled her head off.

Why'd you do it, Isaak?

Your boyfriend
is a federal agent.

No, he isn't.

Sadly, he is.

Do you know this one?

I saw this guy

outside of a hotel once
where we were staying.

I thought he was a cop.

Who is he?

Your boyfriend's handler.

We don't know
what agency.

I had to make sure
I could trust you.

Who are you?

Open your eyes
and tell me who you are!

You did the hit
on Congressman Aquino.

I was assigned
to go undercover.

Are you a
federal agent?

Are you a
federal agent?!

FBI.

All right, listen.

You let us walk out of here...

and you guys walk out of here.

Nobody even knows
we're here.

You kill a federal agent,
you're as good as dead.

No. No.

Remember, Isaak,
he said he loved me, too.

I understand.

Good.

Let's get out of here
and make some money.

Come on! Let's go!

All right,
there's one over here

and another in there.

Quickly! Come on!

Paramedics are here.

We'll get you
out of here, Sam.

You were electrocuted?

It's okay, Sam.

Yeah, he's got
multiple dental trauma.

A possible
fractured mandible.

He's gonna need
an oral surgeon.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hold on, hold on.

Sam, sit down.

Deeks!

Did you give up Michelle?

No.

Was Sidorov playing her
just now?

I didn't give her up.

I didn't
give her up.

All right, Sam.

You need to let the paramedics
do their job.

Thank you.

Still hypertensive
after 500 cc's.

Let's get him on the sheet.

Line's clear.
Go ahead and spike another liter.

Are we ready?
Lift on three.

One, two, three.

Three liters of saline.
Four migs of morphine.

Send a troponin to check
for cardiac damage

and a CK for rhabdo
and kidney failure.

I'm Doctor Garcia. I need
to look inside your mouth.

No.

Detective, I need you
to open your mouth.

Can you hear me?

You swallowed
a lot of blood.

Please open your mouth.

I'm gonna need
to sedate him.

Back off. Give him a minute.

Deeks,

you've got to listen
to the doctor.

Deeks.

Come on, Agent Blye.

We've got work to do.

This the exchange site?
Yeah.

Janvier's on the top
level of the garage.

Sidorov and Vaziri
are late.

They get spooked?

I'm not sure.

There was a lot of talk
at the meet I couldn't hear.

How are they?

Not good.

It was pretty brutal.

Deeks won't even look at me.

My fault.

It was simply
the cost of

completing this mission.

Yeah, then the cost is too high.

Two nuclear weapons

mean hundreds of thousands
of innocent lives.

I know what
the math is!

I run it through my head
every few minutes.

Yeah.

So do I.

Everybody's here.

The minute they mention
the location of the bombs,

we move in
and this ends.

Professionally,
they're all armed and dangerous.

Proceed with extreme caution.

Personally,

I don't need any of them to
spend another day on this earth.

Here we go.

Get ready to move.

I'm going to
check the gold.

It's all there.

We count it
just the same.

We aren't gonna cheat you.

It's a small price to pay
to make Iran

a nuclear power.

And for you, my friend,

$2 million
in Dutch bearer bonds.

They're untraceable,
like cash.

Come on,

tell us where the bombs are.

It's all here.

Pleasure doing business
with you.

Too bad it won't buy you a hand.

I'll see you in hell.

Maybe sooner.

We have a deal.

When this is done,
you leave me alone.

I never go back on my word.

Yes?

How do they look?

Everything is checked.
It's on its way.

Okay.

The merchandise
was checked

and is being taken
to the ship.

Bombs are already
being delivered to a ship?

We can't bust them
till we know where they are.

We have to stay with them.

I'll take Vaziri.

I'll take Michelle and Sidorov.

Eric, Nell, find that ship fast!

Okay, to avoid sanctions,
Iran sails ships

under flags
of Zanzibar, Moldova...

See if there were
any large trucks

near the auto body shop
that match...

Any of the local ports.

Callen, Janvier is not
moving towards you.

He went into the mall.

What?

You still have
his Overwatch signature?

Yeah. The mall has skylights.
I'm tracking him.

Uh, he's moving
to the north end.

He's gone down the escalator.
He's on the first level.

All right,
he's leaving the main area.

It looks like a...
like a maintenance area.

Uh, I lost
his Overwatch signature,

but I still have the button cam
on his jacket.

Which way, Eric?

Go to your left.

You should see
a door to maintenance.

It leads to a hallway
behind the stores

that runs
the length of the mall.

Oh, no.

Callen, Janvier just
killed somebody.

He stole his I.D. and a phone.

He can't get away.

What's he trying to do?

We've lost visual contact.

Still no Overwatch?

Eric, talk to me.

I...
All right, I got him.

He's moving back into the mall.

Okay, I'll try to locate him
on the security cameras.

Callen, he's dressed
as a maintenance worker.

Overalls and a cap.

Just past the food court.

On my way.

Lost visual.

Overwatch says he's just north,

heading toward
the end of the wing.

He's running.

No, he's not. He's on a cart.

He's headed for the north exit.

Got him.

Hey!

It's not him!

Overwatch signature says
he's right in front of you.

He cut off his Overwatch spray.

He cut the skin
off his own body?

And now he's untraceable.

Yes.

Where's Michelle?

She's with Sidorov.

Why didn't you pull her out?

We believe the nuclear

devices are onboard a ship

possibly bound for Iran.

But you don't know which one?

No.

She's staying in

to see if Sidorov knows anything
about the ship.

Where are they?

Agent Hanna,
you were severely injured.

I'm ordering you to remain
in the hospital.

Ms. Blye.

Yeah, Hetty.

Status?

Sidorov, Andros and Michelle

are in the Camford Hotel.

Agent Hanna will be calling you.

Do not give him your location.

It's for his own good.

Anything on the ship?

The Port of Los
Angeles is the busiest

in the country.

Eight million containers
move through there a year.

Not to mention the
Port of Long Beach.

Granger with Vaziri?

Yes.

You want to bring Vaziri in,
question him?

No, he has
diplomatic immunity.

We wouldn't be able
to keep him very long.

And he'll never admit
to buying the weapons.

Let alone give us
the name of the ship.

What's the last location
we have on Janvier?

Uh, he left the mall on foot,
but we lost him after that.

We have a BOLO out
and facial recognition

running at the borders
and international airports.

We need to stay focused
on the bombs.

Janvier is obsessed with you.

It might be wise
not to be obsessed with him.

I have to be.

Janvier's a threat.

He lives for revenge.

He'll come after me.

Or any agent I'm connected to.

I owe you for the rest of
my life for what you did for me.

I just wanted you to know.

I think I'm, uh...

I think I'm done being a cop.

That would be a huge mistake.

You're a great cop.

You're gonna make
a great agent.

Uh...

I never thought
I'd hear that coming from you.

Yeah, that was my mistake.

I won't make it again.

1982 Château Bel Orme
Tronquoy de Lalande.

I've waited years
to open this.

Hmm.

Now...

Now you're done waiting.

Very much.

I need a minute.

Mmm.

Just one minute.

I'll be back.

Who's this?

Hello?

I got a call coming from
the Camford Hotel.

That's where
Michelle and Kensi are.

It's a text.

That's got to be from Michelle.

Eric, get everything you can
off that phone.

Just give me a minute.

I don't like

being teased, Quinn.

You don't want me
breaking down the door.

Just a sec.

You are supposed to
be in a hospital.

Do you know
what room they're in?

Michelle got Sidorov's phone.
Eric's downloading it now.

I asked you...
do you know what room she's in?

No.

You better promise me Hetty will
never know that you were here.

Something tells me
that's gonna be impossible.

I just got a hit for a plane
ticket purchased for an...

Adeline Janvier.
Janvier's daughter.

The ticket is from
Las Vegas to Los Angeles.

Flight landed
ten minutes ago.

Las Vegas? I thought
Janvier's daughter was in Paris.

She was.

I got everything
off Sidorov's phone.

I'm waiting, Quinn.

Coming.

You bit me.

Did it hurt?

Yes.

That's only the beginning.

Where is my phone, Quinn?

But then I guess
Quinn isn't your real name.

Andros!

I found an address
of the port. Big screen.

That's got to be the dock
where the bombs are.

Or were.

I want Michelle out now.

It could be one of a
half a dozen ships.

I don't give a damn.

We'll find it.

Have Homeland Security lock down

the dock, and alert
the NEST team.

Yeah.

Mr. Hanna?

Yes, Hetty.

How did she know you were here?

That's a discussion
for another day.

Get Michelle out now.

With pleasure.

Federal agent.

We need to know what room
he's in, and we need a key fast.

I checked him in.

Room 1504.

Thank you.

Federal agents!

They're gone.

Eric, what are you seeing?

They've disabled the camera

outside the room,
and they're not

on any of the other
hotel cameras.

I'm looking
at the lobby,

the garage...

What about traffic cameras
surrounding the hotel?

Searching.

Sidorov found a
way out. Find it.

This is the woman from Las Vegas

flying under the name
Adeline Janvier.

And this is actually
Adeline Janvier.

It's not
the same woman.

Then why is she flying
under Janvier's daughter's name.

It's almost like he
wants us to find her.

Bait, perhaps?

Okay, I found the woman

from Las Vegas
getting in a cab at LAX

a half hour ago.

Find out who she is
and where she went.

That's what Janvier
would want us to do.

Sam, I just got a hit
for a private plane

chartered out of LAX,

booked under
one of Sidorov's companies.

Takes off in 15 minutes.

Alert Homeland
Security at LAX.

That plane does
not take off!

Hold on.
I got another hit

for a private jet
out of the Ontario airport.

And another one
from Burbank.

Another one for John Wayne.

What is he doing?

Hedging his bets?
All right, well,

we stop one, he's not gonna be
able to get to the other one.

There's one more for San Diego.

That's two hours away.

Where do you want to go?

I... I don't know,

but, Eric, none of
those flights take off.

Just tracked Vaziri
to an apartment in Hollywood.

We any closer
on the ship with the bombs?

We believe
we found the dock,

and the NEST team
has been dispatched

to the Port of Los Angeles.

As soon as you find the bombs,
I'll take him in.

Okay, the woman
from Las Vegas

traveling under
Janvier's daughter's name

is Kayla Bishop.

She's an
exotic dancer

with convictions for fraud,
theft and prostitution.

Janvier likes to hire
small-time crooks that want

to make some quick cash.

The question is: why?

The charter company
just texted the pilot

to expect the passengers
in less than an hour.

Where? LAX?

No. San Diego.

But that doesn't
make any sense.

He can't get down
there that fast.

Sidorov never left the hotel.
What are you talking about?

Eric, check the roof of
the Camford Hotel for a helipad.

It's got one.

And there's a bunch
of suitcases.

It's the gold.

They got to be
there somewhere.

There's a helicopter inbound.

The chopper's two minutes out.

Sam, we got them.
They're on the helipad.

Federal agents!

Drop your weapons!

Eric, get that chopper
out of here.

Lower your weapons!

Where you gonna go?

It's over.

Looks like you
lost your ride.

Lower your guns
and get away from the door!

Not happening.

Yes, it is.
You know why?

Because your love
for her is your weakness.

I could say the same for you.

The difference is,
I'm willing to kill her,

but you are only willing
to die for her.

In a New York second.

Do I have to put a bullet
in her shoulder?

Lower your weapons
and get away from the door!

Don't do it, Sam.
Shoot him!

Last chance!

Okay.

Okay.

You win.

Do what he says.

Move!

Don't hurt her.

Don't hurt her.

Okay.

Go.

Cut these.

Deeks, are you okay?

I'm good.

You good?

Yeah, I'm good.

The NEST team is at the
Port of Los Angeles, dock 23.

They're scanning the containers
for radiation signatures.

Okay, using the license
plate from the taxi,

I've tracked the woman
posing as Janvier's daughter

to an apartment
in Hollywood.

That's the apartment
Granger tracked Vaziri to.

According to
the cab's records,

she got there
just before Granger.

Make sure Granger knows
Janvier may be there.

And tell him to wait for me.

Surely it's a trap, Mr. Callen.

I know.

Janvier?

I haven't seen him; he could've
come in through the back.

Let's finish this.

Ground rules.

If Janvier wants to die
by suicide-by-cop...

I have no
interest in that.

I'm just saying...

let's be clean about it.

As a whistle.

Go.

Federal agents!

Vaziri's men.

This wasn't a
trap for us.

He used the girl
to lure Vaziri.

Vaziri cut off
Janvier's hand.

Janvier cuts off both
of his in return.

He didn't care
about getting aw

It's all about revenge.

He's alive.

Balcony.

Balcony.

You looking for the guy

who just jumped off there?

Where'd he go?

Down the street.

He got into the
black Beemer.

Finish it.

We both want it.

Hey.

Hey.

They, uh...

recover the bombs?
Yeah.

NEST team found them hidden
in a container headed for Iran

via Africa.

They're securing them now.

Well, I love happy endings.

What are you doing?

Um...

I don't know. I was just, uh...

I was just cleaning
some stuff out, but I don't...

I don't know.

Yeah.

Listen, I know
what you're going through...

I really hope that you never do.

Right.

But if you want to talk about it
or not talk at all...

I'm here for you.

I just... I want
to walk away from it.

Yeah, so take some time off.

I just need to get away
from everything, you know?

I just, like... I just...

And everyone?

Okay.

Kens.
Yeah?

Hey, I just want
you to know

that the place I
went to in my head

to, uh...

stop the pain...

was you.

I just kept
thinking about...

your smile...

and your laugh.

Everything.

It's the only thing
that got me through.

For whatever it's worth.

I'll be home really early.

I love you.

I love you, baby.

Michelle going back to
being Mrs. Sam Hanna?

She's helping
our daughter with her homework.

Mm-hmm. How long
is that gonna last?

I don't know.

Deeks,

got you a present.

Wow, that is, um...

What? Too soon?

It might be a little...
too soon.

So then this isn't cool?

No?

That's...
No, that's amazing actually.

All right.
Yes.

Hey.

Laughing's good.

Yeah.

Okay.

Let's get out of here.

Drinks are on me.

Nothing cold.

Or warm.

Or chewy.

Eight feet wide.

11 feet long.

23-hour-a-day
lockdown.

Triple life sentence.

Priceless.

I didn't think
I would see you again.

I just had to see this
with my own eyes.

Two-hour plane flight

just to see me step into a cell.

Not much going on at home,
I guess.

Did you ever read
The Count of Monte Cristo?

It's the story of a man
who spent 21 years in prison,

only to escape
and exact his revenge.

Agent G. Callen!

The game is not over.
