00:00See any other human life forms in here?
00:07Welcome to Launch Bay Electronics, where we believe our customers are out of this world.
00:12Sorry for the wait, we're a bit shorthanded today.
00:15So, what can I do you for?
00:18Martin Deeks, Investigator, NCIS. This is my partner, Special Agent Kenzie Blatt.
00:23Danny, Repair Port Genius slash Assistant Manager.
00:28Dig it. So, Danny, we traced a hard drive serial number back to this store. Can you tell us who bought this?
00:34Uh, we're not usually supposed to give out information about clients.
00:39But, since my manager's too busy hanging out with his new girlfriend to come to work...
00:46Can I see that again?
00:47You certainly can, my friend. Get in there.
00:51Are you sure that's the right serial number? Because of the log saying it's still in the store.
00:57No, that's definitely the right serial number. Any chance that it was stolen?
01:00Shoplifted?
01:01That is a synonym, yes.
01:03Unlikely. We keep them in a locked case.
01:06Everything's kept pretty tight around here ever since some teens tried to steal Cthulhu.
01:12Cthulhu? Just out of curiosity, this squid is not for sale, or...
01:16Can we see the case, please?
01:18Can we see the case, please?
01:20Yeah.
01:21Uh, uh, uh-oh.
01:24Uh-oh?
01:25Uh-oh.
01:26Who else had access to this case?
01:28Just myself and my manager, Noel.
01:31Noel, the manager that didn't show up to work today?
01:34Has Noel done anything else unusual lately?
01:38Well, he started a side job doing data recovery for clients' broken computers. Risky, if you ask me.
01:45Risky how?
01:47People are paying you to recover everything on their drives. Passwords, personal info, images, everything.
01:54And then that person just expects you to delete it.
01:58Okay, so what you're saying is that Noel may have been keeping his clients' data?
02:02Noel's girlfriend has pretty expensive taste.
02:05Data recovery would make you a chunk of change, but not as much as selling it.
02:11Listen, I'm not accusing anyone of anything.
02:14I'm just saying, if Noel was selling data on the dark web and got himself in a little too deep...
02:24By chance, you're not a big fan of conspiracy theories, are you, Denny?
02:28They're not conspiracy theories if they're true.
02:33Touché.
