00:02Yo.
00:03Oh, hey there, slugger.
00:04Heard about the big win last night.
00:06Uh, but I'm curious.
00:07What is making McGee go full Bull Durham?
00:09Oh, that would be because of Mattel.
00:12Oh.
00:13McGee's newly-discovered teenage son is into baseball.
00:15Got it.
00:16Yeah, I think he's trying to connect with Mattel,
00:18but I don't think it's going well.
00:20McGee wants to invite the kid to the next game
00:22because he wants to impress him.
00:24Impress him? Oh, come on.
00:26Well, like, uh, degrees from MIT and Johns Hopkins
00:28aren't enough?
00:29I know, I know.
00:30I'll talk to him when I get back from the Appalachians.
00:32Jess and I are going up there to, uh,
00:34search for Lieutenant Lee's missing camera.
00:37Oh.
00:38The Appalachians.
00:39And you're going dressed like that?
00:41I got a jacket in the car.
00:43Okay, City Mouse.
00:45Uh, Jess is, uh, wilderness first responder certified.
00:47She'll make sure you're safe.
00:49Uh, first of all, I don't think I like that assumption,
00:51and City Mouse?
00:52Really?
00:54You know what?
00:54Let's change the subject.
00:55Yeah.
00:56Yeah, to our four victims here.
00:58All four had the same cause of death.
01:00It's the unfortunate combination of an unstoppable force,
01:04the plane meeting an immovable object, the ground.
01:08So, no surprise there.
01:11No surprises to the backgrounds either.
01:12The pilot has a perfect flying record,
01:14and the passengers were squeaky clean aid workers.
01:17So, nobody's going to believe that any of them would be a target of a missile strike?
01:20That's because there was no missile strike.
01:22I have gone through every scrap of NTSP data, along with Lee's limited recollection of the crash,
01:27and there is one thing that no one can seem to understand,
01:30which is why this plane was several hundred miles off course.
01:33Now, that's a big error, but the pilots didn't mention it on the black box or to air traffic control,
01:38which means...
01:39They thought they were on course.
01:40Yes, because the GPS was telling them they were.
01:43You think the GPS was broken?
01:44I'm saying the GPS was hacked and the radar system.
01:47Someone was feeding both systems bad information, sending the plane way off course.
01:52Okay, so what do you think he made it go, you know, boom?
01:55Well, because whoever hacked the plane was giving it a false altitude reading.
01:59When a plane is flying in low altitude, it requires more fuel.
02:03This plane thought it was flying low for hours.
02:06That's a lot of extra fuel in the engine system.
02:09So, the engine overheated?
02:10Causing a cascade failure of the plane's electrical system and resulting in multiple explosions.
02:16The plane wasn't shot down. It was sabotaged.
