00:00My grandma said you can keep using her shed.
00:01She mentioned something about you building a boat.
00:03You know he's only dating that Diane because he can't take the thought of losing you.
00:07You're never home?
00:08That's over for months now.
00:10How's the family?
00:10Shelly thinks divorce is for people with more disposable income.
00:18Cliff Wheeler.
00:20He was the kind of guy that spent a lot of time alone.
00:23Alone in his big office with the door shut.
00:26He spent a lot of time alone at home, too.
00:31At least that's what I heard.
00:36Even though I saw him every day back then, he was kind of a mystery.
00:42But from what I could tell, he didn't seem like the kind of guy that liked being alone.
00:47He seemed like the kind of guy that wanted to be heard.
00:50That is my fault, now it's your fault!
00:52It seemed like even a, how was your day, probably would have gone a long way.
01:00But I never really heard anyone ask him things like that.
01:03We asked him things about budget cuts and protocol.
01:07But that probably only made him feel more like what he already was.
01:11A guy that didn't like being alone.
01:16A guy that wanted someone to ask about his day.
01:19And care about the answer.
01:21If Cliff Wheeler had somebody like that,
01:23well, he probably would have been a whole new man.
01:28You've been seeing him again.
01:31We need to talk.
01:33Ready and go!
01:51We're talking this time.
01:52Stop!
01:53Yes, okay.
01:54Little, baby.
01:55Baby, baby, baby.
01:57Baby love, be my baby tonight.
01:58Is it a baby?
01:59Baby love, baby love.
02:01Is it a baby?
02:01Weasel!
02:02Is it a baby?
02:03Ice, ice, baby?
02:04Do something else!
02:05Do something else!
02:05Ah!
02:07Seriously, the news said no more blackouts.
02:09No, I heard this morning that if this heat sticks around, blackouts are imminent.
02:13I got some flashlights.
02:13Hey, sit your ass down.
02:15I made this whole blackout kit and I put it in your cabinet.
02:19I'm going to get us another round.
02:21In case anyone was wondering, it was a sweet child of mine.
02:24Clearly I was being a child.
02:26It looked like a rodent to me.
02:28Hey, he really likes you.
02:30I can see it on his face.
02:31Yeah, I really like him too.
02:34Except I hate that he refuses to show me his secret woodshed.
02:38It's a guy thing.
02:40Oh my God, don't drop me in.
02:41Okay, that's horribly exclusionary.
02:44So I'm going to change the subject to Junie and how much I psychotically love your dress.
02:50She made it.
02:50What?
02:51Mm-hmm.
02:51That's incredible.
02:53Ugh, my wardrobe's about to get so boring if I get any of these corporate accounting jobs I'm applying for.
02:58Look, you're going to be cute on the weekend.
02:59Okay, are we doing this or...
03:01Yes, quick, before he changes his mind.
03:02Ready, go.
03:03Uh, movie.
03:05Gotta move your body, bud.
03:08Thumb.
03:09What the hell is that?
03:11Back to the Future.
03:12Yes.
03:12Yes!
03:13Yes!
03:14Yes!
03:14Are you kidding me?
03:15That was awesome!
03:16I'm impressed.
03:18Martha!
03:18You need a hand with something?
03:23Uh, I forgot my razor.
03:24Mary Jo said she'd be right down with one.
03:26Never forget your grooming tools.
03:27Yeah, well, I had a night last night.
03:30Wife, you want to talk about it?
03:32I can plug my ears if you want to talk about it.
03:34I don't want to talk about it.
03:35Here you go.
03:36Ugh, what took you so long?
03:39That's a horrible question to ask someone who just moved heaven and earth to get you a grooming tool.
03:44So, you know I have to leave for an hour this afternoon.
03:49Dang blackout took out my oven.
03:51You love that oven.
03:52I know.
03:54Repair guy's coming at 2.30.
03:55I'm hoping he can fix it.
03:57Hello, fair co-workers.
04:00Your hair!
04:01Oh, my God!
04:03You look hot, senorita.
04:06My curls kept getting caught in my helmet.
04:08Plus, I re-watched The Working Girl this weekend and the, you know, how I love me some Tess McGill.
04:13If you want to be taken seriously, you need serious hair.
04:18I liked how it was before.
04:20Oh, come on, Cliff.
04:21Get your head out of your ass and give the woman a compliment.
04:23No, it's okay.
04:24I don't need it.
04:25What I need from you, sir, is a recommendation.
04:27For what?
04:28Joint criminal intelligence team.
04:31Personnel from FBI, DEA, CID, NIS, sharing information to take down bad guys.
04:36It's happening in D.C.
04:38They're looking for somebody to head it up.
04:39Sounds right up your alley.
04:41How long have you been gone for?
04:42Well, it's a permanent assignment.
04:45What?
04:46No, it's okay.
04:46You all can come visit me.
04:48Party in the U.S. Capitol.
04:50You're trying to move across the country and you didn't tell me?
04:52Well, I didn't tell her yet either, but she looks pretty stoked.
04:58The big is.
04:59Let's roll.
05:04Hey.
05:05It's not even for sure yet.
05:07You think she's really mad at me.
05:11Yeah, she's.
05:18Gibbs.
05:19It's a hot one, eh?
05:20Power's still out at my place.
05:22Paige woke me up.
05:23Yeah, last night was a blast, man.
05:24Oh, Junie sent a gift for Diane, left it in the trunk.
05:27Hey, you hear Vera got a haircut, might be moving to D.C.?
05:30What?
05:31Morning, gentlemen.
05:32The body is straight east behind the barracks past the tree line.
05:35Your people are already out there.
05:37Victim was ID'd as a 21-year-old Lance Corporal, Natasha Horvitt.
05:41She lived in this building.
05:42Any witnesses?
05:43No.
05:44Game warden came upon a body this morning while he was doing his rounds.
05:47She's counting on us!
05:48Go!
05:49St. Mary Poppins!
05:51What's going on over there?
05:52They call themselves cougar crazies, sir.
05:55You ever hear of number three?
05:57Female cougar lives here in the floodplain.
05:59A couple months ago, a kid wandered off in the area, broke his leg.
06:03Rescuers said they saw this cougar watching over him.
06:06A group of civilian delinquents found the story to be life-altering.
06:09Cat groupies, got it.
06:10They get high, hop the fence, try to catch a glimpse of Mary Poppins.
06:15That's the cat?
06:16Yes, sir.
06:17They call her that because she looked after that kid.
06:19The hell are they yelling about?
06:21Sorry, you buried the lead.
06:23The cougar killed your victim.
06:25They don't want it to be euthanized.
06:27We love you, Mary Poppins!
06:31Cougar attacks on humans are rare, but when hunting dries up, they start showing up where they don't belong.
06:37No trauma to the neck, though.
06:38Quite the hoopla going on back there.
06:41Yeah, those cougar crazies are a bunch of nut jobs.
06:44They think female three floats around on an umbrella entertaining kids.
06:48They got zero understanding of territorial behavior.
06:51Doc Tango, Kent Price.
06:53Game warden, how you doing?
06:54So, what did you mean about the neck?
06:56Well, you got your telltale dirt and leaves to deter from scavengers, but cougars suffocate their prey.
07:03You'd think there'd be trauma around the neck.
07:05Excuse me.
07:06Can you help me out?
07:07I gotta get to that transformer.
07:09Whoa.
07:09Whoa, hold up.
07:09We need to clear the area first.
07:11Is the power out here?
07:12Yeah, yeah.
07:13Since yesterday.
07:14Hey, is that one of those whatever weather pens they can write in the rain and stuff?
07:19Yeah, it is.
07:20I take it.
07:20They give them out to us.
07:22Randy, quit stalling.
07:23We need to get them out of here.
07:24Yeah.
07:25I thought maybe if we waited over here, the MPs would get it calmed down.
07:29It's really their purview.
07:30I don't like physical action in the heat.
07:33They get rosy real fast.
07:35I think it's calming down.
07:37St. Mary Poppins!
07:39She didn't mean to eat that girl!
07:42Got it for an object inside this wound.
07:45The tip of a knife?
07:46The big head.
07:47Got two sets of footprints back there.
07:49It's possible she was with someone else when she was attacked.
07:51We got a knife here.
07:52It's projecting through the left lung.
07:55Let's flip her.
07:56I got it.
07:56I got it.
07:58Oh.
08:00The handle's broken off.
08:05It could be she was fighting the animal and killing her knife.
08:08No.
08:10I count three stab wounds.
08:14She was dead before the cougar got to her.
08:18She's just an animal!
08:20What the hell's going on over there?
08:22Okay.
08:23We've got to get the area clear!
08:25Please!
08:25Get these guys out of here!
08:27We need to get to the transformer.
08:28We need to get the power out!
08:29We need to get the power out!
08:30God.
08:31Go!
08:31Watch out!
08:31Go, Mary Poppins!
08:32Go, Mary Poppins!
08:33Go, Mary Poppins!
08:35Go, Mary Poppins!
08:37It's way too hot for this!
08:41Yeah.
08:41Go, Mary Poppins!
08:43Go!
08:43Should be quiet now.
08:50MPs transported the cougar folks off base.
08:52Hopefully the power will be back on soon.
08:55Natasha said some day her grandkids would show this picture off.
08:59Is there a fourth lady living here?
09:02It's just the three of us.
09:04We have the whole floor to ourselves.
09:05We're all in different battalions, but since there's so few women, they put us together.
09:09He knows.
09:10Maureen.
09:11Oh.
09:12Gibbs, you mind helping Franks and Randy out there going through Natasha's car?
09:18I'm one of you.
09:27I used to bunk over in 21 area.
09:30You guys ever had any problem with any men in the building?
09:35Anyone sneak onto the floor, off-color pranks, pressuring you in any way?
09:41You know how it is?
09:44But Natasha was tougher than both of us put together.
09:47And really smart.
09:48Yeah.
09:49So other crossword puzzles?
09:51She was starting a new temporary additional duty.
09:54She was in here all day yesterday prepping for it.
09:57What was the assignment?
09:58Signal intelligence.
09:59It was all super classified.
10:02They recruited her because her dad was Croatian and she spoke the language.
10:06So she was here in the morning and then she reported for duty?
10:09She was panicked because her car wouldn't start, but the colonel came to pick her up himself.
10:13Lieutenant Colonel Montgomery.
10:15He's the signal battalion CO.
10:17We figured she just went home to her mom just after work.
10:21We were both in and out all day, but we never saw her come back.
10:26Lieutenant Colonel Casey Montgomery.
10:29According to Natasha's roommates, he picked her up for a new TAD.
10:32That was the last they saw her.
10:33Sold.
10:34Let's bring him in.
10:35Well, it's not that easy.
10:36Colonel Montgomery is heading up a highly classified op with satellites over Europe and the former Soviet Union.
10:42With the breakup of Yugoslavia.
10:43Guy's in Yugoslavia?
10:44No, Mike.
10:45I told you.
10:46He picked up our victim from her barracks yesterday.
10:49Okay, you ain't gonna get snippy.
10:50I wasn't getting snippy.
10:51You were just getting snippy on account of you being mad at Vera.
10:53I'm not mad at Vera!
10:54Sure you are.
10:55She's making life moves without telling you.
10:56Boss, the colonel has a lot of connections in a lot of high places.
10:59If we question him without giving a heads up to his superior...
11:02So you think we're gonna get blowback for bringing this clown in and Cliff's gonna stomp around with his little cliff feet?
11:06Yeah.
11:07Why don't you just say that?
11:08Let me guess.
11:10Oh.
11:11Thank God for the ceiling fans.
11:13Don't stop what you're doing.
11:14I just gotta hand this off before I forget.
11:16Oh.
11:17Is that evidence?
11:18No.
11:19No, it's totally non-work related.
11:20Junie made it for Diane.
11:22Junie made this?
11:24For Diane?
11:25Pretty sure that's what the man just said.
11:27I know.
11:28But I didn't know Junie and Diane were close enough to exchange handmade clothes.
11:31I mean, that's nice.
11:32Isn't it?
11:33I feel like you're mad about the Vera thing, so I don't know what to say.
11:38Woman's stuck, Broby.
11:40Ain't no right answer.
11:41Come on.
11:42Go run this Yugoslavia crap past Cliff.
11:47Hey, Franks.
11:48There you are.
11:49Been looking all over for you.
11:50Watch Carlman at work.
11:51Franks, I got an update relevant to your case.
11:54I received a call from Game Warden Price.
11:56And he, uh, caught wind of my renowned work at Fish and Wildlife.
12:00Great call.
12:01You should tell your mom about it when you get home tonight.
12:03Warden Price recruited me for his Cougar Task Force.
12:06Once he has eyes on, uh, female three, he'll activate me.
12:10We'll track her, see if we can locate any evidence that she might have dragged or buried outside of your crime scene.
12:16Good to know.
12:17Now, if you're looking for Wheeler, he's in the rec room.
12:25Now, Cliff, I'm not gonna pretend to know what's going on with you,
12:28but I can't have you hiding out in here day drinking.
12:31I tried to work, but everyone keeps coming into my office.
12:33I-I need a moment.
12:34Am I not allowed to have a moment, Mary Jo?
12:36The hell are you doing in here?
12:38I'm having a moment.
12:39Oh, we'll be quick then, sir.
12:40Just need you to clear a path for us to interview a suspect.
12:42He's one of those sigging big shots.
12:44Name's Colonel Montgomery.
12:45Hey, I thought the foosball tournament was postponed to next week.
12:47It is. Cliff's just in here clearing his head.
12:49Oh, phenomenal. I'll be quick, sir.
12:51About that rec for D.C.
12:52Sir, MPs faxed over the files on their encounters with these cougar crazies.
12:56A lot of them have records.
12:57And we know they've been hopping the fence, getting in trouble with all these marines on base.
13:01I'm just saying the colonel isn't our only suspect, so you can spin it like that when you make your phone calls.
13:04Sir, the game warden's office just couriered this over.
13:07I need your signature here and here to officially place me on the cougar task force.
13:11Okay, back of the line, Carl. I was here first.
13:13Oh, is this about the D.C. thing?
13:14I said I was sorry about that.
13:16No, you didn't.
13:17Okay, let's give Cliff a minute.
13:20Go upstairs, form a line, he'll meet you up there.
13:22What are we climbing upstairs for, Mary Jo?
13:24We've got to get a stairs for Mary Jo.
13:25We've got to get a stairs for Mary Jo.
13:26I was actually about to form a line.
13:33For the love of God, can I please have a moment with my Rob Roy?
13:39My wife of 17 years is divorcing me for frick's sake.
13:43Hey! Everyone out here get that?
13:49I've become a statistic.
13:51I'm getting a frickin' divorce!
13:58Congrats on the cougar task force, Carl.
14:01Okay, good times, things are happening.
14:15Colonel's on his way in, got a few more files on a super secret job.
14:18Hey, am I the only one that can't stop thinking about the look on Wheeler's face?
14:22You think he was having a breakdown?
14:24I've never seen one in real life before.
14:26Well, at least he set us up to bring in the Colonel before he left.
14:28He didn't go home willingly, you know.
14:30I heard Mary Jo use, like, a Jake the Snake DDT kind of move to get him into the taxi.
14:36She quick, shut the door.
14:37Hey, if you two boys can't work quietly, I'm gonna have to ask you to get the hell out.
14:40Can we bring the big fan with us?
14:42No, Randolph.
14:44Colonel encouraged Natasha Horvat to be a cryptographer.
14:47They were gathering intel on the conflict in the former Yugoslavia.
14:50Op was called Iron Phantom.
14:52How are you getting that?
14:53The only thing that's not redacted on mine was that Colonel was a hero in Grenada 83.
14:56You think someone could have killed her because she knew too much?
14:59After one day on the job?
15:02How'd you come to know Lance Corporal Horvat?
15:04I screened her myself when she was in basic SIGIN training.
15:08Fluency and servo-Croatian is a rarity.
15:10She was a bright kid.
15:12Her proficiency marks were exemplary.
15:15It didn't hurt that she was a woman.
15:17Different perspectives are valuable to my team.
15:20This is for your new operation, Iron Phantom?
15:23Classified, yes.
15:25It was her check-in day.
15:26What exactly are y'all into over there?
15:28Signal intelligence.
15:30The amount I can share is in the files.
15:32That don't amount much, does it?
15:34Why'd you pick her up at her barracks?
15:36She called my office at 0800 because her car wouldn't start.
15:39I offered to give her a lift.
15:41You drove her home too?
15:43Affirmative.
15:45About 1830.
15:48When she got out of the car, she started talking to someone outside.
15:51Male.
15:52Civilian clothes.
15:53Short brown hair.
15:54Six foot, give or take.
15:55She knew him?
15:56She seemed to.
15:57She was smiling at him.
15:59Where'd you go after you dropped her off?
16:02Temecula.
16:03I got back this morning at 0700.
16:05What's in Temecula?
16:07Classified.
16:09Anyone verify that you were there?
16:12No.
16:13I went alone.
16:14What'd you stay at, Colonel?
16:16I dropped Lance Corporal Horvat at her barracks.
16:20She started talking to a young man.
16:23That's your lead.
16:25I suggest you follow it.
16:39You're on Marley.
16:40I made an ass of myself at the office.
16:42Mary Jo put me in a taxi.
16:44You okay?
16:47What if I stopped seeing him?
16:50If I did it once, I can do it again.
16:53Noah Oakley isn't the problem here.
16:58Cliff, you know him, right?
17:00No.
17:01It's just, um...
17:03I've never heard you say his name before.
17:06So, that makes it real.
17:11Listen to me.
17:13This isn't the end of the world.
17:15Our son will be fine.
17:17I will be fine.
17:20And so will you.
17:23People will talk.
17:26They'll ask questions.
17:29What will I say?
17:32I love you so much, but...
17:35I can't take that on anymore.
17:44I need to go in early tomorrow.
17:47Sensitive case.
17:48Some big shot colonel's a suspect.
17:50You know how it goes.
17:56I'm telling you,
17:57I know the colonel was weird about his alibi,
17:59but any one of these cougar people
18:01was crazy enough to kill somebody.
18:03Uh-huh.
18:04Look at this.
18:06This woman was a kindergarten teacher.
18:07She was responsible for shaping the youth of America.
18:11Assaulted an MP with her hiking stick
18:12because they told her she couldn't hop the fence
18:14to chase a mountain lion.
18:16I thought the colonel said your victim
18:18was talking to a guy, not a lady.
18:21He did.
18:22Brown hair, six foot.
18:23That's what I'm looking for.
18:26Oh, Lord, not again.
18:27Can I tell you what happened with my oven?
18:31Vera's here.
18:33Seriously?
18:34Oh, yeah.
18:35I invited you both
18:36so you could smooth things over.
18:38Hey.
18:40Didn't know you'd be here.
18:41I invited you both
18:42so you could smooth things over.
18:46No, no need. I'm good.
18:48Yeah, I'm good, too.
18:50Well, that's a little BS,
18:51but let me tell you about my oven.
18:55Right back.
18:56I was supposed to go and meet the repair guy.
18:58Mm-hmm.
18:59But then when Cliff had his breakdown,
19:01I felt like I couldn't leave the office.
19:02I don't know.
19:03So I called my neighbor.
19:05I said to her,
19:06Lonnie, just tell him to fix it.
19:07What?
19:08Guess what he did?
19:10Hmm?
19:11He took out the whole damn thing and trashed it.
19:14Now I gotta get a brand new oven.
19:16Yeah.
19:18Hey, you know Lala hurt me, too,
19:19not being happy for me, right?
19:21But this?
19:22I can't take this.
19:23All right, thanks.
19:24Shh, shh, shh, shh.
19:25She's coming.
19:28There was a cougar sighting.
19:30Carl is abandoning night duty
19:32so he can do his task force thing.
19:34So, I gotta take over.
19:36I'll see you guys later.
19:38Sorry, honey, I tried.
19:40I could just let it punch me in the face.
19:49Carl!
19:51You can go now.
19:52I'm here.
19:54Carl!
19:56What took you so long?
20:01Oh.
20:02My.
20:03God.
20:07What?
20:08I-I-I like your hat.
20:11It's all fun and games
20:12till someone gets mauled by a cougar
20:14because they weren't properly outfitted.
20:17I know what happened.
20:28Oh, damn.
20:31Ugh.
20:38I hit my head.
20:39I need help.
20:40What happened?
20:41I hit my head.
20:42I need help.
20:47What happened?
20:48I hit my head.
20:49I need help.
20:53You're one of those cougar advocates, right?
20:55Look what I found.
20:59It's from the knife that killed that girl.
21:00Even the news said that it was a person that killed her,
21:03not a lion.
21:04Set it down on the desk
21:06and raise your hands for me, okay?
21:08No, no.
21:09I-I found it.
21:10I-I...
21:11Look.
21:12Look, it's...
21:13I-I found it in the dirt.
21:15You can't kill Mary Poppins' cat.
21:17She didn't do anything wrong.
21:18Put it down on the desk.
21:19No one is going to kill that cougar.
21:22I promise.
21:23You're lying.
21:24You're...
21:25You lie.
21:26You lie!
21:27You lie!
21:28Put it down!
21:29You lie!
21:30Put it down!
21:31You're gonna kill her!
21:40I don't wanna land if she's dead!
21:45You lie!
21:47You lie!
21:53You lie!
22:07Drop it!
22:08Slide the weapon to me or I will shoot you!
22:10I don't wanna live if she's dead.
22:13Slide the gun to me!
22:15Slide it!
22:19She's just a cat.
22:20She didn't do anything wrong.
22:22On your stomach, now!
22:29I found y'all that knife handle.
22:31You should be thanking me.
22:40Coming in hot, Randall.
22:41Whoa!
22:42Okay!
22:43Shut the door!
22:44Okay!
22:45If you're trying to ward off predators,
22:46Kowalski's bread is already gone.
22:51You hear what happened with Lala last night?
22:54No, what?
22:55One of those cougar crazies showed up.
22:58With a bleeding head.
22:59And the handle from our murder weapon.
23:02Then he pulled a gun.
23:03He accused her of wanting to kill the cougar.
23:05Took off and run it.
23:06Next thing you know,
23:07POP!
23:08POP! POP!
23:09He fires three rounds into a filing cabinet.
23:12And what?
23:13What?
23:16What happened?
23:17She neutralizes him without incident.
23:18Also, the power was out,
23:19so it was a big scary deal.
23:21I can't believe she didn't tell you.
23:24Is she okay?
23:25Yeah.
23:26Oh, wait.
23:27Um, she didn't tell you because she's still upset
23:28you didn't share your DC dream with her.
23:31DC's not even for sure yet, okay?
23:33I'm still waiting for the right time
23:34to get Wheeler to recommend me.
23:37Is he back yet,
23:38or is he still having his divorce meltdown?
23:40You know what?
23:41Never mind.
23:42Leave me be.
23:44Copy.
23:47Lala.
23:48Vera's in the kitchen if you want to tell her
23:49what happened last night.
23:50Knife handles with forensics.
23:51Cougar Crazy from last night
23:52is on an involuntary psych hold.
23:54His name is Huck Crawley.
23:56He doesn't match the colonel's description
23:57of the guy that was talking to Natasha,
23:59plus his alivite checks.
24:01We saw this guy at the crime scene
24:02he was screaming about Mary Poppins.
24:03Yeah, I think he was just off his mints.
24:05He happened to find the knife handle,
24:07and he loves that cat on unhealthiness.
24:09You guys, come on.
24:14I've had crazier nights than last night.
24:18Ah!
24:19The apple butter lotion is the best.
24:21Who did this?
24:22Uh, sorry.
24:23This is for Junie.
24:24It's from Diane.
24:25It's, uh, thank you for the dress.
24:27Thanks.
24:28That's nice.
24:30We confirmed the colonel's alibi.
24:31Classified red tape, boss.
24:32We're waiting on some calls back.
24:33I spoke to Horvath's bunkmates.
24:34None of them saw anyone that looked like
24:35the guy the colonel described.
24:36The man goes, you were a lady marine.
24:37Let's work that angle.
24:38Remember what I taught you, Mike?
24:39You don't say lady marine.
24:40Or woman marine.
24:41We're just marines.
24:42Right, but I'm asking to get inside the lady marine's head.
24:43Suppose we believe the colonel.
24:44Who was she talking to when he dropped her off?
24:45You think I'm psychic?
24:46Women's intuition, Dominguez.
24:47You got some of that or not?
24:48That was Phil.
24:49He's got something.
24:50When he's not here, I keep a more serious tone in the lab.
24:52I'm asking you both to adhere to that, please.
24:53Last time he was out of town, you kind of lost your marbles.
24:55He isn't out of town.
24:56He is down the hall in the biohazard lab.
24:57He's down the hall in the biohazard lab.
24:58And he's down the hall in the biohazard lab.
25:00You're not going to talk to me, Mike.
25:01You don't say lady marine.
25:02You don't say lady marine.
25:03Or woman marine.
25:04We're just marines.
25:05Right, but I'm asking to get inside the lady marine's head.
25:07Suppose we believe the colonel.
25:08Who was she talking to when he dropped her off?
25:10You think I'm psychic?
25:11Women's intuition, Dominguez.
25:13Last time he was out of town, you kind of lost your marbles.
25:15He isn't out of town.
25:16He is down the hall in the biohazard lab
25:18processing the ungodly amount of cougar feces
25:21that Carl dropped off from his tracking expedition.
25:23Can he take a shower before he comes back in here?
25:26Bigger concern should be your evidence, don't you think, Leroy?
25:28Here, put these on. Take a look.
25:30As you can see, the handle that your cougar enthusiast dropped off
25:34pairs with the murder weapon.
25:36Brake pattern matches exactly.
25:39Those goggles look ridiculous on you, by the way.
25:41Yeah, I know.
25:43Pull any prints off the handle?
25:44Negative. Thing was smudged, L.
25:47That'll be Woodrow.
25:48Yeah.
25:49Skibidoo-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-dee-ow.
25:52What is up, y'all?
25:54Daddy-O is in the scat room.
25:56You get it?
25:57Scat, like cougar dung, but also skibidoo-ba-ba-ba-ba-dee.
26:01Yeah, we got it, Woody. Do you have something?
26:03Okay.
26:04Sir Philip, I'm sensing you're in there trying to do your serious tone.
26:07Great.
26:08Listen, I just finished digging through this big old pile of poop.
26:12I can definitely confirm that this cat ingested pieces of your dead marine.
26:16You want specifics?
26:18We're good.
26:20Doki-doki. I'm gonna head to showers then.
26:22Oh, did you show them the thing, Phil?
26:24No, because you said you wanted to talk to them about it.
26:27No, I didn't want to talk to them.
26:28I just wanted to do the scatting, like timed perfectly to when you toss it to them.
26:32Ready?
26:32Scat-bidoo-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba.
26:37What, he pulled that out of the cougar excrement?
26:40At all.
26:40Yeah, we've sanitized it for God's sake.
26:43It's a challenge coin, huh?
26:44America's battalion, 1983. Grenada.
26:47That's the same unit Colonel Montgomery served in.
26:51This is his coin.
26:52That puts me at the scene.
26:53Mike!
26:56You're back. Good for you.
26:58So you know, I'll be observing your interrogation of the Colonel.
27:00You're afraid I'll flip a table and ruffle some fancy feathers?
27:03These folks are still bugging you in your office.
27:06Both.
27:07Look, we've got evidence on the guy.
27:09Just don't flip the table, all right?
27:11Hey, Cliff.
27:12Yeah.
27:15You know, when Tish left, everyone thought it was Garrett Callahan that got me through.
27:20There's truth to that, sure.
27:23What also kept me going was knowing that even though it was over, it mattered.
27:29The memories, they mean something.
27:33Ain't nothing to take that away.
27:36You and Tish broke up?
27:41Mike!
27:43You want some company in there?
27:44Yeah, let's go.
27:49Lieutenant Colonel Montgomery, how you doing?
27:52Confused, to be honest.
27:53Sir?
27:54You want to explain to me what I'm doing here?
27:55Do you need the room to hide out?
27:56I can watch the tape later.
27:58Tell you what, Colonel.
27:59We respect your position.
28:01We are grateful for all you've done for this country.
28:03Because of all that, I ain't gonna BS you.
28:08Turned up at the crime scene.
28:11I understand how this looks.
28:13Did you have an interest in Lance Corporal Horvath beyond a professional one?
28:17No.
28:17I gave her this coin as a gift.
28:19She was feeling out of her depth on the project.
28:21I had very similar doubts back in Granada.
28:23I gave her this coin to make her feel part of the team.
28:26It said you asked for her.
28:29It said you picked her because she was a woman.
28:31It seemed like you had a real special.
28:32Is this how he usually gets before he flips a table?
28:39Hey.
28:40Bartender from Campion's Pub called in a tip.
28:42Said he saw someone matching Natasha's description there two nights ago, drinking with a guy.
28:46They shared with her?
28:47Yeah.
28:47Clothes and description matched.
28:49Hey, is this escalating?
28:50Because I think it's escalating.
28:52Answer the question.
28:53I have.
28:54I've answered every question.
28:54You were nowhere near Temecula.
28:56You were here, on base, killing that girl.
28:59Negative, sir.
29:01I dropped her off at 1830.
29:03Colonel Montgomery, look at me.
29:06With this new evidence, we got clearance to look at the schedule for every sensitive mission occurring on base this month.
29:13There were no classified happenings in Temecula two nights ago.
29:19I dropped Lance Corporal Horvath off at 1830.
29:23She was very much alive and talking to the man I described.
29:28I drove straight from Pendleton to Temecula.
29:36I stayed at the Gardenia Motel.
29:41He's lying.
29:43We would have said that before.
29:44Can anyone verify that?
29:46Motel can.
29:48I stayed in room 228 all night.
29:53The room was rented out to an Alex Vernon.
29:57You made up a bogus mission because she was married?
30:01No.
30:04Alexander Vernon.
30:06I was with him all night.
30:07He's saying you're gay.
30:16I'm saying Alex can vouch for me.
30:21Did not see that coming.
30:23Mary Jo, get me General Alvin Jeffers on the phone.
30:41I need to make a report of misconduct.
30:42I told you to get me Jeffers.
31:09I know what you told me.
31:12I'm not doing it.
31:14You have no idea what's going on here, Mary Jo.
31:16Oh, I got an idea, honey.
31:18Believe me.
31:19If you report the colonel for being gay, he could be discharged.
31:23His homosexuality makes him vulnerable to blackmail.
31:26It's a potential security risk.
31:28He can lose his benefits.
31:29I know that.
31:30He could lose everything.
31:31I said I know that.
31:31Yeah, well, it seems like you forgot.
31:35This isn't your concern, Mary Jo.
31:38Go back down to your desk, please, and get me General Jeffers on the phone.
31:43No.
31:47I know about you, Cliff.
31:50And I'm not going to let you do this.
31:52You know what about me?
31:54I know about you.
31:55I know about you and Noah Oakley.
32:02And I know you're standing there thinking the same thing I am.
32:06What if that were you in the colonel's shoes?
32:09Barry could strip you of your security clearance.
32:13He could take your job.
32:15And I don't know if you think you have some sort of duty to report this man.
32:19Or maybe you think you've got something to prove.
32:22But if you do this, Cliff, you'd never forgive yourself.
32:28I can't stand by and let that happen.
32:31This conversation is over.
32:33Cliff.
32:33I told you to get me Jeffers, and that is an order.
32:36So for once in your life, stop doling out unsolicited advice in rooms that are above your station.
32:42And do your job.
32:49I'm going to walk out of here, and I'm going to keep this whole place running, because that's the job I do here.
33:11But I tell you what, Cliff, you can dial your own damn phone.
33:16Alexander Vernon confirmed he was with the colonel all night.
33:34Yeah, hotel receptionist put him there, too.
33:36His alibi checks, he didn't kill Natasha.
33:38Article 125 says homosexual conduct should be reported.
33:46Colonel's alibi check.
33:48Yeah, boss.
33:48Yeah.
33:49All right.
33:50Whether or not he gets reported for being a little light in the loafers, it's above our pay grade.
33:54Just get cracking.
33:55Why don't you all tell me who killed our lady Marine?
33:57Ah, just Marine, boss.
33:59You don't got to...
33:59You know what I mean.
34:00Colonel's off the table.
34:01Who could have done this?
34:02Bartender from Campions was right.
34:04Natasha was definitely there the night she died.
34:06I spoke with the whole staff.
34:08Three of them are drinking at a table with a white guy.
34:11Mid to late 20s, brown hair.
34:13Could be the same guy that Colonel Sarr talking to outside her barracks.
34:15The bar back remembered cleaning this off the table at the end of the night.
34:19Who does thinking games at a bar?
34:21Well, Natasha liked crosswords.
34:23She had a bunch in her locker.
34:24Dig this out from the pub trash.
34:26Yeah, it was traumatic.
34:28But I found this, too.
34:31The bar back said he was pretty sure that was on Natasha's table.
34:35If her and this guy were doing the puzzle together, maybe we can pull his print off it.
34:40Is that a whatever-weather pen?
34:46Public Works Department gives you boys all them pens you need, huh?
34:50So y'all can write in whatever-weather?
34:51Hands on your head.
34:54Aw, hell.
34:56I hope you mind.
34:56Nope.
34:57Public Works Department employee Willem Banks was apprehended by our agents earlier today.
35:25We searched his truck, found blood evidence.
35:28He then confessed to the murder of Lance Corporal Horvat.
35:32According to a statement, he saw Horvat outside her barracks earlier in the day.
35:37He was working there on the Transformer.
35:39He returned later that night to ask her out for a drink.
35:42On the way to the bar, she saw a newspaper in my car.
35:45She started joking around and doing the crossword puzzle.
35:48We finished it together in the bar.
35:49He drove her home, wanted more than a kiss could night.
35:55She fought him.
35:56He dumped her body out there like it was nothing.
36:00Share her whole life better.
36:02Sir, I'm aware NIS can very well report me and initiate Article 125 Proceedings for Homosexual Conduct.
36:15Lieutenant Colonel, you have spent the past two and a half decades serving this country with honor.
36:21And your assistance in this investigation was invaluable.
36:23I have no intention of destroying your career or your life.
36:32Frankly, I'd never forgive myself.
36:37Thank you, Special Agent Wheeler.
36:40Your discretion won't be forgotten.
36:50You headed home?
36:51Yeah, doing something with Diane tonight.
36:55I think I was supposed to plan it.
36:58You know that note she put in the gift basket?
37:00Really meant a lot to Junie.
37:01Like, seriously, got her, like, super inspired with the whole dressmaking thing.
37:05Really?
37:06Yeah, she's thinking about designing something to sell now.
37:08And, uh, I always told her she should do it, but...
37:11I don't know.
37:13Something about the way Diane says stuff, man.
37:16She's a keeper.
37:20See you tomorrow.
37:21Yeah, I'll see you tomorrow.
37:28Oh, God.
37:37It's supposed to be a fancy lotion basket, but I didn't have time to go to the mall.
37:41It's all the ones I had in my apartment.
37:43Oh, yes, SPF 15.
37:48That's awesome.
37:50Did you rub lotion here on the side, too?
37:53Oh, no.
37:55That's probably Grace.
37:57It's my popcorn bowl.
37:58It's a really good bowl.
38:01You know, it looks like a phenomenal bowl.
38:04Listen, I really hope you get that DC thing.
38:08They'd be idiots to not have you head that up.
38:11No.
38:12No, la pasada.
38:13¿Por qué?
38:13I typed up this whole thing, you know, for Wheeler to say when he was recommending me.
38:19And I'm standing there, and I'm handing him the paper, and then I think, the hell would
38:24I want to leave here for?
38:26I could set up my own NIS intelligence team with better coordination between Pendleton and
38:30Los Angeles and whomever.
38:32I spent a lot of my time alone, alone in my kitchen, eating dinner, alone in my basement,
38:47building a boat.
38:47Oh, my God.
38:51Your secret woodshed?
38:53I thought it was a guy thing.
38:56Changed my mind.
38:59You spend a lot of your time alone.
39:03You get used to it.
39:06If you're not careful, it starts to become a habit.
39:11This is Director Harlan.
39:13Uh, hello, Director.
39:14This is Cliff Wheeler, special agent in charge at NIS Pendleton.
39:17I understand you're leading the search for a candidate to head up the Joint Criminal Intelligence
39:21Team.
39:21I am.
39:22You got someone for me?
39:24I do.
39:24But not from my office, actually.
39:27Uh, someone at the Bureau.
39:28I think that special agent Noah Oakley would serve you well.
39:33We have worked together for years, and I've seen him grow into an outstanding leader.
39:37No one from the West Coast has thrown their hat in the ring.
39:41Mm-hmm.
39:41You think he has any interest in relocating to D.C.?
39:45Perhaps he could be convinced.
39:46Well, I'd have to run it by myself.
39:48Things are simpler when you're alone.
39:50Your recommendation was...
39:51You got nothing to lose.
39:53So you push people away until they leave.
39:57Or you go someplace no one can follow.
40:01Like the middle of Alaska.
40:02See, take him.
40:03I decided not to report the colonel.
40:14Yeah, I'm aware.
40:16I discreetly made Team Franks aware, too.
40:20They were glad to hear it.
40:22I don't know if you heard, but the repair guy trashed my oven before my daddy died.
40:36He taught me every recipe he knew on that old thing.
40:41I know an oven is insignificant in the scheme of things, but I didn't want to let it go.
40:52Mary Jo, nothing about you is insignificant.
40:59And anyone who kicks you out of their office is a damn fool.
41:09The thing about all those hours in the kitchen with my daddy, they were sacred.
41:17Whatever we said in there stayed between us.
41:22We could be ourselves.
41:25No judgment.
41:27No worries.
41:30He taught me how to be like that.
41:35When it comes to you,
41:38I'm the only one who knows.
41:41And I don't see why that ever has to change.
41:45Unless you wanted to.
42:04You want to order food?
