00:00Previously on NCIS.
00:02Special Agent Parker, this is David Barbado, DOD.
00:05If this MTAC upgrade doesn't go perfectly,
00:07heads will roll.
00:08Look, I know that rebooting
00:10our whole entire system here is a big job,
00:12but you and your tech trolls are up to it.
00:14Well, of all the things I worry about going wrong,
00:17Daryl dropping dead was not one of them.
00:19We're all happy to see you, Sam,
00:20but does anybody mind if we get back
00:21to finding our tech troll killer?
00:23Tommy, what are you doing?
00:25You wanted me to plug it into Casey's laptop
00:27during the upgrade.
00:28Whatever Tommy did, it worked.
00:30So this was never about hacking the upgrade?
00:32No, it was all about Edna.
00:34Who's Edna?
01:15No way.
01:16No freaking way.
01:18Please tell me you are not still in here.
01:20Could you close the door, please?
01:24You are missing the party of the year.
01:27We just got like 50 pizzas delivered,
01:30and we're doing Yeager shots and cake stands.
01:32Oh, well, gravity doesn't really affect ethanol absorption,
01:35so you're just wasting beer.
01:37Which reminds me, can I borrow a shirt?
01:40Mine is soaked.
01:41Help yourself.
01:44Okay, so who's the dick who assigned you homework
01:46over a three-day weekend?
01:47Is it Professor Tarver?
01:49That guy's such a tool.
01:50No, it's actually not homework.
01:52It's a personal project I'm working on.
01:54Did you know that only a small percentage,
01:56like 16% of crime scenes,
01:58actually contain enough DNA or fingerprints
02:00to solve a crime?
02:02Oh, my God.
02:04Cancel the party.
02:05This is the end of the world.
02:06I'm serious, Jill.
02:07What I'm working on
02:07could maybe change that someday.
02:09It could actually matter.
02:10You know what else matters?
02:12Your life, and you are not living it.
02:14Here we go.
02:15No.
02:16I love you.
02:17Okay?
02:18But you cannot spend the rest of your life
02:19with your head down in a book forever.
02:21It is okay to look up every once in a while.
02:25Come on.
02:26Come on.
02:27Join the party.
02:28I promise you, you're not gonna regret it.
02:31Ugh.
02:36Oh, wait.
02:37I just remembered something.
02:38What?
02:38I hate parties.
02:40Oh, come on. Really?
02:41I'm sorry. I love you.
02:42Can I help you?
02:42No.
02:43No.
02:44No.
02:47No.
02:55No.
02:59No.
03:00No.
03:00No.
03:02No.
03:04No.
03:28Look, what I'm saying is that I wasn't bored.
03:30It's a compliance seminar, Nick.
03:32It's not Coachella.
03:33You're supposed to be bored.
03:34Oh, yeah.
03:35You all right, bro?
03:36Spent an hour on the Peloton this morning.
03:38Seriously, you're not what I needed.
03:40Yeah, I wonder why the elevator's out.
03:42Forget Dad.
03:43Why is Tommy in handcuffs?
03:45I know you want answers, but I don't have yet.
03:48It's a very fluid situation.
03:49It is a mess, is what it is.
03:51Your office was tasked to do a simple system upgrade.
03:54Which we completed, by the way.
03:56And now, I'm being told a janitor attempted to sabotage it?
03:59Yes and no.
04:01It's complicated.
04:02Very good.
04:02Agent Parker, who is the janitor working for?
04:06Huh?
04:06The Russians?
04:07The DOD has long suspected there could be a molding site leaking information.
04:11For the hundredth time, I don't know.
04:12Maybe I should go over your head and call your superior.
04:15I'll do you one better.
04:16How about I call yours?
04:19Does anyone understand any of this?
04:20No.
04:22Here's the autopsy.
04:23Oh, hey.
04:24How was the seminar?
04:27What happened to your head?
04:28Oh, it's just a little scrape.
04:30I got into an axe fight with Tommy after he killed one of Casey's tech trolls.
04:34What?
04:35One of Casey's tech trolls was killed?
04:37Who?
04:38Daryl.
04:40His neck was broken.
04:42Sam?
04:43Welcome back.
04:44For the love of God, can someone explain what the hell happened last night?
04:47Someone stole Edna.
04:50Who's Edna?
04:51Edna is the nickname of a computer program I created.
04:55It's a forensic tool.
04:57Basically, it can help with fingerprint identification.
04:59How come we haven't heard of this before?
05:01Because I only just finished it up until now.
05:03It's been a pet project.
05:04Something I've been noodling with since college.
05:07And this is what Tommy stole from your computer?
05:09Yeah, and then wiped all the Edna files off my hard drive.
05:12Tommy say why he stole it?
05:13Oh, he was just a pawn.
05:15Someone abducted his family and forced him into it.
05:18He's got no idea who it was.
05:20Hey, how do you fit into all this?
05:22Oh, I don't know.
05:23I'm just here for a layover.
05:25Would love to stay in Crime Solve with y'all, but not personal business in Dubai.
05:29This is a nightmare.
05:30Someone's dead because of something that I created.
05:33It wasn't your fault, Casey.
05:37It doesn't make any sense.
05:38Why go through all this trouble just to steal forensic software?
05:41Yeah, is your program valuable?
05:43Oh, maybe to some people.
05:46Honestly, it's no big deal.
05:47So other than you, who else knew about it?
05:50There was a tech company, a startup, really, that was interested in buying it.
05:55But other than that...
05:57Well, then I think it's time we talk to this company.
06:00Okay.
06:05Mr. Schofield will be right with you.
06:07It's an honor to meet you, by the way.
06:09Big fan.
06:13Nice digs.
06:15I thought you said this was a startup.
06:18There she is.
06:19The woman who's going to change the world of forensic science.
06:23Such a pleasure to see you again, Miss Hines.
06:25Oh, thanks.
06:26And these are my colleagues, Agents Parker and McGee?
06:28Colleagues, then you must know how lucky you are to be working with such a visionary genius.
06:33Her creation, Edna, is going to make us all very, very rich.
06:37Wow.
06:37Rich, huh?
06:38Well, let's just say if our deal closes, Miss Hines will be able to buy this building twice over.
06:46Okay, maybe I undersold it a little bit?
06:55Did I mention I'm a big fan?
06:58Thank you, Anastasia.
07:00Matcha latte with a splash of oat milk, just as you like it.
07:04Mr. Schofield, help me out here.
07:06Why is your company tripping over itself to buy a fingerprint ID program?
07:13Clearly, Casey's been too modest with you about what she's built.
07:17Yeah, just a little bit.
07:19Her invention is more than just a fingerprint program.
07:23It's a suspect profiler.
07:26As you know, in most crime scenes, if you find a print and it's not in your system, you're dead
07:33in the water.
07:34But Casey discovered that certain fingerprint patterns tend to show up more often alongside specific genetic traits.
07:45So she, um, look at me, telling you how the thing works when the creator's sitting right in front of
07:51me.
07:51Apologies, Casey.
07:53Uh, I designed a program that cross-references print patterns with DNA trait databases.
08:00So if you feed the program a fingerprint, it should generate genetic markers and...
08:06Build the suspect's profile.
08:07Mm-hmm.
08:08Tell you where to start looking.
08:09Casey, that's amazing.
08:10It's a game changer.
08:11Every law enforcement agency on the planet will want it.
08:14We're so excited.
08:15We've even begun brainstorming some alternative names.
08:17In case Edna doesn't test well...
08:20Let me show you.
08:22Casey, why don't you tell us everything?
08:25Because of all of this, I hate all of the attention.
08:29It's embarrassing.
08:30Okay, uh, we're thinking, uh, Helix Print.
08:33Oh, man.
08:35Okay, I love this one.
08:38Hindsight.
08:40Right?
08:40It's smart because they managed to work in the creator's last name.
08:43No, I can see that.
08:44Uh, who else in the company knew about Casey's program?
08:47Just my assistant and a small team of executives.
08:51Is there a problem?
08:52Well, we, uh, we had a bit of a security breach last night.
08:58Um, someone stole Edna off of my computer.
09:02Uh, considering you guys were the only ones who knew about it,
09:06we're thinking it's an inside job.
09:09You don't have anyone who would want to steal from you or hurt the company?
09:13Mueller.
09:14Except my in-house lawyer.
09:16He was fired two weeks ago after a salary dispute.
09:20Um, it's a pretty ugly breakup.
09:22How ugly?
09:23He had to be escorted out of the building.
09:26He kept yelling he'd, uh, make me pay.
09:32Leah Mueller, former lawyer for Alvaron Tech.
09:35He ran his financials and he's heavily in debt,
09:38which gives him motivation to steal Casey's program.
09:41Yeah, but it's as valuable as Schofield says it is.
09:43Mueller's probably going to be trying to sell it to a rival company.
09:45So we're looking at corporate espionage.
09:48I'm sorry, when you say valuable,
09:49how many zeros are we really talking about?
09:52Enough that Casey would never have to work another day in her life.
09:55I still can't believe she didn't tell us.
09:56Wow, believe me.
09:57If you saw the look on her face in that office,
10:00you'd understand she's mortified.
10:02I can't believe I bought her dinner last week.
10:04She'll be buying me dinner for life.
10:06Casey's not going to have any money to spend
10:08unless we get her invention back.
10:10So let's try to get back into it, okay?
10:12Where's Mueller now?
10:13We checked his apartment, but there's no sign of him.
10:16He could have skipped town.
10:17Yeah, Bolo's out. We alerted the airports.
10:19What about the guy who was coerced into stealing the program?
10:22Tommy, the custodian.
10:24We got anything linking him to Mueller?
10:26Uh, no. No, we did a thorough sweep of Tommy's house.
10:29The only thing that we found was a fingerprint on the duct tape
10:32that was used to gag Tommy's wife.
10:34Unfortunately, that print was not in our system.
10:37Worst case, he's programmed when you need it.
10:40All right, keep digging and find that lawyer.
10:41Sure. It was dinner and dessert.
11:05I guess you found my hiding spot.
11:10Oh, I'm sorry.
11:12I was just going to grab a quick nap before I go.
11:15Don't let me keep you.
11:16I just came in here to think.
11:18You sure? Because I can go.
11:20No, I'm fine. Get some rest.
11:42Okay.
11:42Okay.
11:43Who are you hiding from?
11:45Oh, everyone.
11:47Somehow word about my impending fortune got out around the office
11:51and now everyone's acting weird around me.
11:53Even Barbara from accounting hit me up for a donation to her musical theater group.
11:58Her what?
11:59This is why I didn't want to tell anybody about Edna until I was ready.
12:03All money, more problems.
12:05Except I'm not even rich yet.
12:07I think you should be proud of yourself, Casey.
12:09The company wants to shell out big bucks for something you created.
12:13It's pretty cool.
12:14Except I never did it for the money.
12:17I wanted to leave something behind, a legacy, you know?
12:20That's why I named the program Edna.
12:22It's a tribute to my grandma.
12:24She was the, uh, first woman in her town to become a doctor,
12:28all while raising three kids all by herself.
12:31Sounds like an incredible woman.
12:33She was.
12:35This program was supposed to be my legacy.
12:38That's just something that I'm embarrassed about,
12:40and, um, Daryl lost his life over it.
12:49Maybe justice for Daryl is coming sooner than we think.
12:52It's Torres.
12:54Just got a lead on the missile lawyer's location.
13:00Canvass the whole area.
13:01Go door to door.
13:02I want statements from everybody.
13:04All right, go.
13:08Help you boys with something?
13:10Yeah, NCIS.
13:12Are you in charge here?
13:13Yeah.
13:14Detective Conklin.
13:15What's this about?
13:16We got a tip on an Elliot Mueller
13:17connected to a case that we're investigating.
13:19Yeah, is that him over there?
13:20What's left?
13:22Someone went to town on him with a box cutter.
13:25Might if we take a look?
13:26Actually, I do.
13:29Mueller wasn't military, so this isn't your case.
13:32Plus, it wouldn't be right, considering what we just found.
13:36Found?
13:37We got lucky.
13:39The killer left behind the murder weapon with a print on it.
13:41Big, juicy one.
13:43We just ran it.
13:45And a name came up you might be interested in.
13:52What's up, McGee?
13:53Casey, I need you to listen to me carefully here.
13:55Elliot Mueller is dead.
13:57They found your fingerprint on the murder weapon.
13:59What?
14:00Yeah, police want to take you in for questioning.
14:03No, no, no.
14:03But I didn't do this.
14:04I'm innocent.
14:05I'm being framed.
14:07Casey, I believe you, okay.
14:08But somehow they got your fingerprint.
14:09I don't know how, but they did.
14:11Oh, Edna, whoever stole it must have somehow gotten hold of my DNA and reverse engineered
14:18the program to work backwards.
14:20So instead of using a print to extract genetic markers, they're using my genes to create a
14:25print.
14:26I can do that?
14:28Apparently now it can.
14:29Oh my God, McGee.
14:32They're using my own invention against me.
14:40Oh, I'm going to kill him, Parker.
14:42Case, calm down.
14:43I figure out who did this to me.
14:45I swear to God.
14:46They messed with the wrong forensic scientist.
14:48Okay, so I don't understand.
14:49Someone used your program to recreate your fingerprint?
14:51No, you do understand, Jimmy, because that's exactly what happened.
14:55I want a gun.
14:56No.
14:56I want a large sharp knife.
14:57No, Case.
14:58I don't understand.
14:59Why is someone trying to frame Casey?
15:01Is this personal?
15:02Does the killer want revenge?
15:03Maybe they just want to get her out of the way because she's the only one who knows how
15:07Edna works.
15:08Well, they're doing a very good job because the police are going to be here any second.
15:11What am I going to tell them?
15:12The truth.
15:13Someone's using your invention against you.
15:14They will never believe me.
15:16Someone stole Edna.
15:17Remember, I don't even have proof it exists.
15:19Okay, then the only way that we're going to clear your name is if we catch the real guy
15:23who did it.
15:24And get Edna back.
15:25Easier said than done.
15:26The only piece of evidence we have is that fingerprint that we pulled from Tommy the custodian's house
15:31and without Casey's program to ID it, it's useless.
15:34Maybe not.
15:37Okay, well, whatever you're thinking of doing, do it fast.
15:41This is night upstairs in the squad room.
15:42We got company.
15:45This is ridiculous.
15:46I am here on official DoD business.
15:49I understand, but we are very busy.
15:51What's going on?
15:53Hey, Gene Parker, there you are.
15:54I have been patiently waiting for your report on the botched system upgrade.
15:58Patiently?
15:59Uh, it's only been four hours.
16:00And so far, I have received zip.
16:03If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were deliberately trying to ignore me.
16:06How could we ignore you when you won't leave us alone?
16:09Okay, look, just follow me.
16:10Look, uh, deputy, I promised to get you those reports, but now is not really the time.
16:15I don't think you or your team is taking this breach seriously enough.
16:18There is the threat of a Russian mole inside the DoD.
16:22Hey, yeah, like you've been telling us.
16:23I would like to speak to Miss Hines now.
16:25The breach happened on her watch, and frankly, I'm beginning to question her diligence.
16:30No need to question.
16:30I assure you, Casey is the best we've got here.
16:33Rock solid.
16:34You can count on her.
16:35I'm looking for Casey Hines.
16:37She's wanted in connection with a murder.
16:39Murder?
16:43Detective, you're making a mistake.
16:45Casey didn't kill anyone.
16:46What possible motive could she have to kill Mueller?
16:48How about he was a lawyer on a business deal she was involved in?
16:51Money sounds like a pretty good motive to me.
16:53Or maybe she killed him because she is a Russian spy.
16:56Why are you still here?
16:58Conklin, you got a flimsy motive, and you know it.
17:00It's not going to survive a courtroom.
17:02I'm telling you, you're rushing this thing.
17:04Where is she?
17:13Oh, hey there.
17:15Where's Miss Hines?
17:22The coast is clear.
17:26Oh, I can't thank you enough, Sam, for getting me out of there.
17:30What about your flight?
17:32Dubai can wait.
17:33You need help, and I'm your best option.
17:35So what's the plan?
17:36Where are we going?
17:37To upstate New York, a small town named Clayton.
17:41What's in Clayton?
17:42My work notebook.
17:44My original source code for Edna is there.
17:46I wrote it down years ago and gave it to a friend for safekeeping.
17:49If I can get that notebook, I can rebuild my computer program.
17:52Find a description of the killer using his fingerprint.
17:55Mm-hmm.
17:56Sounds like a plan.
17:58Upstate New York it is.
18:00In the meantime, I will get started on rebuilding Edna from memory.
18:10You okay?
18:12Yeah, I'm just, um...
18:15Man, I'm thinking about the way the killer used Edna.
18:19He used it in a way I never intended.
18:22Well, then it isn't your fault.
18:26Yeah, I know, but, um...
18:30If anyone can recreate fingerprints and frame whatever they want...
18:38Imagine the consequences.
18:41Mm-hmm.
18:43Well, when we get Edna back,
18:46you just have to put in better safeguards.
18:51You'll know what to do.
18:55All right, so call me when you get there.
18:57Be careful.
19:00Sam and Casey are headed to New York
19:02to rebuild her program.
19:04Oh, they better watch our bags.
19:05That Detective Conklin ain't playing around.
19:08He just put out a bowler on Casey.
19:10We need access to the dead lawyer's crime scene.
19:12Find out what evidence Conklin has.
19:14Hmm.
19:16When I was at the scene,
19:17I saw a phone laying beside the body
19:19to give us something.
19:21Yeah, but how do we get our hands on it?
19:22I mean, technically, it's not our case.
19:24We could ask Conklin.
19:26Mm-hmm.
19:26He's not the Sharon type.
19:28He can go over his head, get a warrant.
19:30That'd take too long.
19:31What if we don't ask him?
19:36I'm sorry, but I am still very uncomfortable doing this.
19:39You're a hacker, Haram.
19:40Reformed hacker.
19:41This should be a cakewalk for you.
19:43But this is hacking into the MPD police database.
19:46This is highly illegal.
19:47If I get caught, I can go to jail.
19:49That's why I asked you to do it instead of McGee.
19:51What?
19:52No, he's kidding, okay?
19:53He's kidding.
19:54You will be okay.
19:55Don't worry about it.
19:57Be okay.
20:02Okay, I'm in.
20:04Case file for a one Elliot Mueller.
20:07Oh, that's a lot of blood.
20:09All right, pull up his phone right now.
20:11Search any mention of the word Edna.
20:14All right, here we go.
20:17Yep, looks like it came up in a text thread
20:19between your boy and an unknown contact.
20:22Mueller sounds pretty steamed.
20:24Don't act like this wasn't my plan.
20:26Taking Edna was my idea.
20:28You screw me over, I'll kill you.
20:29Oh, that wasn't very nice.
20:30Mueller must have a partner.
20:31His partner got to him first.
20:33What a corporate espionage.
20:35He pretty.
20:36This is interesting.
20:37It's Mueller's GPS history.
20:39Looks like the week before he was murdered,
20:40he visited the same location in Virginia six times.
20:45It's the headquarters for someplace called the Helios Team.
20:47Strategic Group.
20:48They're a private military contract.
20:50I just searched the database for Helios,
20:53and I got this.
20:54It's a recent police bulletin.
20:56Thieves just stole a truck full of weapons
20:57and explosives from their headquarters.
21:00Well, this is way past corporate espionage.
21:05So this friend of yours,
21:06you're sure she still has your notebook?
21:08There's no chance she's lost it.
21:10Lost?
21:11No.
21:13Earned it, maybe.
21:17Shoot.
21:22Kissy.
21:24Hi, Joanna.
21:25It's been a while.
21:29You look good.
21:30You haven't changed.
21:33Yeah, well, clearly you have.
21:34What?
21:36No.
21:37No, no, no, no.
21:38We're not.
21:39We're just friends.
21:40We're just friends.
21:42What do you want?
21:44Um, I need your help.
21:47My help.
21:49After what you did.
21:54You broke my heart, Casey.
21:59So you two were...
22:01Yep.
22:02And you broke up with...
22:03Yep.
22:05This ain't gonna be easy, is it?
22:07Nope.
22:16Thanks for coming in, Mr. Rasmussen.
22:18Not sure why you're wasting your time with me
22:20when you could be looking for my guns.
22:23We're working on it.
22:24Just trying to gather the facts.
22:26You mentioned that the stolen weapons
22:28were inside one of your trucks.
22:31Correct.
22:31My company just signed a very lucrative deal
22:34supplying weapons and hardware to the U.S. Army.
22:37All state-of-the-art stuff.
22:39Worth tens of millions of dollars,
22:41which is why I need them back.
22:43Now.
22:45I figured a place like yours
22:46would have pretty tight security.
22:48How'd they get in?
22:49Too damn easily, that's how.
22:51I think they had help from the inside.
22:53You got a name?
22:54Adam Rowland.
22:55One of my security guards.
22:57Called in sick yesterday.
22:59Not answering his phone today.
23:01He could have given them access, except, uh...
23:04What?
23:04Well, the thieves got into other areas of my facility.
23:09Secured areas the guards can't even get into.
23:11Only way in with biometric access.
23:16Like a fingerprint?
23:18Correct.
23:20Edna strikes again.
23:21Gotta be.
23:23Who the hell's Edna?
23:25Come on, Joanna.
23:26Open up.
23:28I really need your help.
23:32Maria, we're starting to draw heat.
23:34Yeah, I'm trying.
23:35Come on, Joe.
23:37You know what?
23:37I just need to grab something,
23:38and then I'll be gone real quick.
23:39I promise.
23:41What's the deal between you guys anyway?
23:43We, like...
23:45We dated for a few years,
23:47during and after college,
23:48and she thinks that I'm the one who broke it off.
23:50Did you?
23:51No.
23:53Yeah.
23:54It's complicated.
23:55We don't have time for complicated, Casey.
23:57Just say I'm sorry.
23:58Let's grab the notebook and go.
23:59Why do I have to apologize?
24:00I didn't do anything wrong.
24:02Come on.
24:03Come on, Joe.
24:04Joe.
24:04Excuse me.
24:05Excuse me.
24:07Joanna, open up.
24:08Casey misses you and wants to say sorry.
24:10She wants to apologize.
24:11What the hell?
24:15You have five minutes.
24:17Okay, look, Joe.
24:19We're here for a notebook.
24:21Tan leather scuffed on the edges.
24:23Have you seen it?
24:24Maybe.
24:28Okay.
24:29Listen, I get that things may not have ended great between us,
24:33and, uh...
24:36I'm sorry.
24:37How?
24:37Well, as long as you're sincere about it.
24:40I'm trying, Joe.
24:41Yeah, try harder.
24:42I gave up my job in Colorado,
24:44moved across the country to live with you,
24:47only for you to dump me a year later.
24:48I gave up everything for you, Casey.
24:50I never asked you to do that.
24:51Yeah, well, you never said anything,
24:52because you were always working.
24:53That was the problem.
24:54You're exaggerating.
24:55Oh, you ever...
24:55Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
24:56Time out.
24:57Time out.
24:58You both need to chill and listen to each other.
24:59Please, sit down.
25:00Ladies, sit down.
25:02Okay?
25:03Here.
25:04We'll take turns.
25:06With a pretzel?
25:07It's not a pretzel.
25:09It's a talking stick.
25:11Whoever holds it does all the talking,
25:13and the other listens to what she has to say.
25:15Okay?
25:17Hey, Casey, you go first.
25:20What?
25:20I saw it on Oprah once.
25:21You want the notebook or not?
25:28I admit that maybe I was guilty of prioritizing my work over you.
25:36I was, um, trying so hard to make something of myself that maybe I lost you in the process.
25:44Mm-hmm.
25:45Okay.
25:46Good start.
25:46I like what I'm hearing.
25:50Your turn, Joanna.
25:57I knew how much your work meant to you.
26:02And, uh, I admit that, I don't know, maybe I thought I could change you, which wasn't fair.
26:14But that wasn't the only reason you pushed me away, was it, Casey?
26:17What do you mean?
26:18It's not your turn yet.
26:19Wait for your talking stick.
26:20No, are you trying to say that there was someone else because there wasn't?
26:23You can't do that.
26:23I want to know why you broke up with me.
26:25That's against the rules.
26:26I already told you.
26:27I was too focused on my career.
26:28This is going a little off the track.
26:29I want to know why every time I tried to get close to you, you just pushed me away.
26:36I...
26:37Oh, God.
26:38I have to go to the bathroom.
26:41It's like talking to a brick wall.
26:45Can we have the notebook?
26:48Just...
26:54Hey.
26:55Just heard.
26:57Is that our security guard from Helios?
26:59Yep.
26:59The police pulled his body out of a storm drain about an hour ago.
27:03Guess Ross Meeson was right.
27:05The robbery was an inside job.
27:07Let's just hope Casey can rebuild Edna so he can ID the killer's print.
27:15What's wrong?
27:16What?
27:17Nothing.
27:20You are a very bad liar.
27:23So come on.
27:25Melissa.
27:32I don't know why she didn't tell me about Edna.
27:36Casey didn't tell anybody about Edna.
27:38Yeah, but we're super close.
27:39We share everything.
27:40But you're happy for her, though, right?
27:43You are happy for her.
27:45Yes, yes, I...
27:46Okay.
27:48Say we catch this killer and we retrieve her program and she sells it.
27:52Then what?
27:53She throws a kick-ass party and we all celebrate.
27:57Or...
27:58She never comes back.
28:00To NCIS?
28:03Casey would never do that.
28:05I mean, she loves what she does.
28:06She loves us.
28:08Yeah, all true.
28:10But selling Edna, I mean, that's going to come with a whole new set of responsibilities.
28:13Maybe a new job.
28:18What if Casey doesn't have time for us anymore?
28:27It's from Torres.
28:29The stolen weapons truck was found abandoned in field.
28:32Empty, I take it?
28:34Not exactly.
28:37It's your lucky day, Mr. Asmussen.
28:39All your weapons untouched.
28:41Whoever stole them must have gotten spooked that we were onto them.
28:44Left the guns behind with the truck.
28:49And this is everything you found?
28:51Down to the last gun.
28:54Honestly, I thought you'd be more pleased.
28:57Unless, of course, you never cared about the guns to begin with.
29:01You said the thieves needed your fingerprints to get in, but to what?
29:05It's not your truck or the main gate, we checked.
29:08In fact, the only spot in your facility that requires biometric access is your own personal vault.
29:14They stole something else from you, didn't they?
29:17Something in that vault you don't want us to know about?
29:23It's a briefcase containing documents.
29:27The guns were never the target.
29:29They just used a truck to get away.
29:31What kind of documents?
29:32In two days' time, the U.S. military is going to launch a covert op in northern Syria.
29:37And there's a Russian-backed militia over there that's causing trouble.
29:40U.S. wants to shut it down.
29:42With the help of your weapons?
29:45I was given a set of classified documents that detail the entire op.
29:49Timing, troop locations, exit routes.
29:53That is what was stolen.
29:55If those documents get into enemy hands, gentlemen, it puts U.S. soldiers at risk.
30:00And you didn't think to tell us this?
30:02It was classified.
30:04And I thought you'd find the documents.
30:06Before anyone at the Pentagon figured out how badly you screwed up.
30:11Those documents must be recovered, Agent Parker.
30:15And soon.
30:20Yeah.
30:22I understand.
30:24Okay.
30:25That was Parker.
30:26Things got even more complicated.
30:27We need that notebook now.
30:28You're welcome to try it.
30:29She won't come out of her room.
30:34Joanna, open up.
30:35It's important.
30:35Please leave.
30:37Not without the notebook.
30:39Now, look, the way I see it, you got two choices.
30:40Either you tell us where it is, or I tear this place down to the studs looking for it.
30:45What's it gonna be?
30:48I'll save you the trouble.
30:49I threw it away.
30:50What?
30:50Yeah.
30:51Along with Casey's other stuff after she left.
30:54Sorry.
30:54Let's go, Casey.
30:55Let's go.
30:55We're wasting enough time here already.
31:01Wait.
31:07You asked me earlier why I always push you away, and it was because I was afraid that if you
31:14knew who I really was, you would know the truth.
31:18I'm not good enough for you.
31:22Not good enough for anyone, really.
31:26I'm sorry, Joe.
31:28I never meant to hurt you.
31:34What was that?
31:38Cops are outside.
31:40They found us somehow.
31:41We gotta go.
31:43What is going on?
31:45Casey.
31:51Police, freeze!
31:54Stop right there!
31:57Damn it.
32:03I didn't kill anyone, you hear me?
32:06I'm innocent!
32:08Casey, save your energy.
32:10Come sit down.
32:12It'll be okay.
32:18God, I really messed up, Sam.
32:21I didn't get the notebook.
32:23The police think I'm the murderer, and, uh, now soldiers' lives are at risk because of something that I invented.
32:33Some legacy.
32:37Casey, my pops was a hard man.
32:40Made me fight for every scrap of approval.
32:43So I know what it's like constantly trying to prove yourself, thinking you're not enough.
32:49But you are, Casey.
32:52Hey.
32:53You're a warm, bright, funny person who'd do anything for her friends.
33:01So do me a favor.
33:03Stop chasing your legacy so hard.
33:07Because who you are is what you leave behind.
33:09And that's your legacy.
33:13Hmm?
33:15Looks like Christmas came early for you, Agent Hannah.
33:17You're free to go.
33:20You must have some friends in pretty high places.
33:23What about Casey?
33:24She stays.
33:26She's still under suspicion for the murder of Elliot Mueller.
33:29All right, well, you might as well lock me back up, because I'm not leaving here without her.
33:32As you wish.
33:34No, Sam, go.
33:36There's no point in both of us being stuck here, and you're more help to the team outside than in
33:41here with me.
33:43You sure?
33:46Yeah.
33:47Yeah.
33:50Hold tight.
33:53We'll be back for you.
34:15Yes, sir.
34:16Understood.
34:17Welcome back, Shawshank.
34:19I was prison.
34:20Annoying.
34:21Casey's still locked up.
34:22We've got to make some calls and get out of here.
34:24Yeah, I'm working on it.
34:24Right now, we've got bigger fish to fry.
34:26I just spoke to SecDef.
34:28I told him that our killer is in possession of the classified docs.
34:32So SecDef knows that the Syrian out might be compromised.
34:35Is he going to call it off?
34:36No.
34:37What?
34:38Those docs spell out the entire operation.
34:40Wheels are already in motion.
34:41Soldiers are embedded in remote areas under radio silence.
34:45So we wouldn't be able to warn him in time.
34:46Our only shot is to find a killer and pray that those documents haven't changed hands yet.
34:52You got any ideas on where we might find them?
34:54No.
34:54I was hoping you would.
34:57Other than the military contractor, who else knew about the Syrian out?
35:00Well, that's a covert app.
35:01Very select few at the Pentagon.
35:03Maybe that cyber security guy's right.
35:05It really is a mole inside the DOD.
35:08And finding him's not going to be easy.
35:10I just spoke with Torres.
35:12He and Knight went over to the DOD to see if they have any leads.
35:15They're in the dark just as much as we are.
35:17At this point, we're going to need a miracle.
35:22Hold that thought.
35:24Joanna.
35:25Hey.
35:27What are you doing here?
35:28I heard what happened to Casey.
35:30I wanted to help.
35:31Um, not sure if this will make much of a difference now, but...
35:35You never threw it away.
35:37Yeah, I, um, I just said that because I was hurt.
35:41I figured Casey is honest with me, so it's my turn.
35:45Here.
35:48Please look after her, Sam.
35:51Will do.
35:54Yeah.
36:01Is that what I think it is?
36:03Casey's notebook.
36:04Great.
36:04All right.
36:05We'll be able to rebuild Edna and ID the killer.
36:07You're forgetting one thing.
36:08We don't have Casey.
36:09No, but we do have this guy.
36:13What do you say, McGee?
36:14You think you can rebuild it?
36:19Possibly.
36:20You may need some help, though.
36:22Help?
36:24So am I, like, the only other tech guy that you know?
36:27You should be flattered, Harold.
36:29Did such a good job for us before, so...
36:31Yeah, it's just kind of hard to do this with him watching.
36:37Hey.
36:38Hello.
36:39Just type.
36:40Sir, yes.
36:40Type.
36:41How are we doing?
36:43Yeah, almost done.
36:44There's a few more lines of code.
36:45All right, just as long as it works.
36:47I just spoke with a buddy from the NSA.
36:49They picked up chatter about some Russians in town looking to make a high-value acquisition.
36:54It's got to be the classified docs.
36:56Mo must be planning to make a handoff somewhere.
36:58We better get there before he does.
37:00Oh, all right.
37:01We are finished uploading the print to Casey's laptop.
37:04We'll throw it up on the big screen there.
37:10That is Casey's magic.
37:13We are looking for a Caucasian male.
37:16Eastern European descent, late 30s, above average height.
37:21Genetic markers consistent with something called polyasis?
37:25Wait, wait.
37:26What is it?
37:27It's a hair condition.
37:29Premature graze.
37:30My uncle has it.
37:37So, are we done?
37:44You're late.
37:48Had to make sure I wasn't followed.
37:53Here's the documents you asked for.
37:55So, are we good?
37:57What about that computer program, Edna?
38:00It could come in handy.
38:02Actually, I was hoping to hang on to this.
38:05As payment for my services.
38:08I could get a pretty good price for it on the black market.
38:12Or I could just give it to you.
38:16Everybody, do it!
38:18Egypt, you are followed!
38:20It's EIS!
38:21Show me your hands!
38:22Drop your weapons!
38:24Don't do it!
38:25Don't do it!
38:31You're right now!
38:38Cover me!
38:42Edge in the air!
39:12I'm here!
39:19I'm over. You lose.
39:22You sure about that?
39:34And thank God you showed up.
39:36I would have to agree.
39:42Bye.
39:45And the original copy of Edna, safe and sound.
39:48Wow. Thank you, guys.
39:49Thank you so much for getting this back to me
39:51and also for getting me out of jail.
39:54Well, we missed you.
39:55And Jimmy was starting to panic.
39:57I was about to bake you a cake with a nail file in it.
40:01Wait, so Barbato was the mole the whole time?
40:03Yep. Turns out the boy who cried wolf
40:06ended up being the wolf.
40:07Yeah, he stole your invention so he could break into Helios
40:09and grab the classified docs.
40:11The good news is the docs have been returned
40:13and, more importantly, our troops are safe.
40:15Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
40:16And we couldn't have done it without you, Casey.
40:18And your program.
40:19And Sam.
40:20Oh.
40:21I almost forgot.
40:23This is for you.
40:26Wow.
40:27Oh, my gosh. Guys, think you shouldn't have.
40:30We didn't.
40:31No, it's from the CEO from that, uh, tech company.
40:36Yeah, looks like he's, uh, interested in restarting negotiations
40:39now that you got Edna back.
40:40Yeah.
40:41So, what are you gonna do?
40:43You ready to sell and join the one person?
40:56Hey, Casey.
40:57Hey.
40:58Figured I'd swing over?
40:59Say so long?
41:00Oh.
41:01Headed off to Dubai?
41:02Yeah.
41:04I miss you.
41:06Me too.
41:07Thanks for everything, Sam.
41:11That's Edna, huh?
41:13Yep.
41:13Wanted to get one last look before I delete it for good.
41:17What?
41:17That's your baby.
41:18Yeah, but what happened to me can't ever happen again.
41:21Even with safeguards in place, there's no guarantee someone won't get around them.
41:24What about your legacy?
41:26You were right.
41:27I need to stop chasing it so hard.
41:30My friends, my job here at NCIS, it's my legacy.
41:35For now, it's good enough for me.
41:37Hmm.
41:40I'm happy to hear it.
41:43See you around, Casey.
41:44And I know someone else, I'd be happy to see it.
41:50Joanna.
41:51Hi.
41:52Uh, I heard you got out.
41:54Just wanted to see how you were.
41:56Oh, yeah, much better, thanks to you.
41:58I wouldn't be here if you hadn't brought my notebook.
42:01So.
42:02Uh, well, you know, since I'm in town, I, uh, just thought maybe you might want to get a drink,
42:07catch-up.
42:09Uh.
42:10Unless you're too busy, of course.
42:12I mean.
42:12No.
42:13No, no, no.
42:14I would, I would love to.
42:16One second.
42:17Yeah.
42:35I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would,
42:35I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would,
42:35I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would,
42:35I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would,
42:35I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would,
42:35I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would,
42:36I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would, I would,
42:36I would, I would, I would, I would
