Coffee?

Looks like you need it more

Just need to get my day going.

You sound like your dad.

I am his son.

He's also middle-aged.

(groans)

Okay, why are you so worn-out?

I'm middle-aged, apparently.

Seriously, Alex, what is it?

College apps? SAT prep? Homework?

Oh, I'm getting tired just
hearing all of it.

Fall semester of senior year
is tough.

I'm glad you feel that way.

Mrs. Allen wants you to sign it.

And acknowledge that you
got a "C"

in a subject you usually ace?

C-plus.

Okay, what happened?

Mom, it's one paper.

It's not like I'm on drugs or
getting arrested.

So, can you just sign it, please?

You sure nothing else is going on?

Because Jane Eyre is a classic.

It's a gothic coming-of-age story
about a young woman,

like, finding herself.

And you didn't see any parallels?

Clearly not. (chuckles)

Won't happen again.

KAI: Hey, boss.
TENNANT: Hey.

KAI: Our victim is Marine Staff
Sergeant Travis Cobb.

Workers found him in the back
of a sedan

as they were crushing it.

Would've been tough to I.D. him,

except he had his dog tags
tucked in his boot.

It's a Marine thing.

Is that the car?

Yeah.
A few more seconds

and Cobb would've been crushed
and missing forever.

Anyone report him missing?

His C.O. put him on

unauthorized absence status
yesterday.

And he ended up here?

KAI: Car was empty when it
was prepped for disposal,

two days ago, so our theory is

he was killed and dumped at night
during off-hours.

Do we know the cause of death?

JESSE: No, not yet.

But we're really hoping it wasn't
from the crushing.

Talk about nightmare fuel.

All right, Kai, when we're
finished here,

follow up with Chase for an answer.

Yeah, yeah, I got it, boss.

(quietly): Thank you.

Doesn't look like they're running
any CCTV.

We have any other leads on who
might have dumped the body?

This place is on

a suburban home security package.

Spare key in a fake rock,

"Beware of Dog" sign with no dog,

and all the employees have alibis.

What would a young marine be doing

to get dumped in a junkyard?

It's the stuff you see with mobsters
and criminals.

JESSE: According to his C.O.,

he couldn't be further from either.

Said he was a good marine with
a good heart.

Maybe his C.O. didn't really know him.

(reggae music playing)

Thank you so much, Annie.

Oh, I think word's gotten out
about this place.

(chuckles)

But, hey, waiting can be fun. Right?

Yeah. Totally.

I'm sorry, I just thought

supplying our respective teams
with caffeine fixes

is sort of our thing now.

I want to tell my boss we're dating.

Say something.

I'm just, we, uh... (chuckles)

We were, we were on coffee,

and now we're... we're on... on
talks with bosses.

Well, there's an FBI barbecue
coming up,

and I want you to come with me.

Okay. Yeah, same page now.

I... I think you should totally tell
your boss

so... I can meet your team.

This is great.

Yeah, it is.

Okay, so then why does it seem
like you're worried?

He could take me off as NCIS liaison.

No, he wouldn't do that.

Would he?

Uh, if he felt like there was a
conflict of interest.

(phone chiming)

Shoot. I, um, I... I have
to run to K-Bay.

I think you're doing the right thing.

(sighs)

It's gonna be okay. Really.

Oh, yes, you're done.

Okay, never mind.

Sometimes it can be a sobering reminder:

how fragile our physical forms are.

Don't get me wrong, I... I've seen
many physical forms.

I'm just...

Crushed in a car is new.

You never forget your firsts.

Like the time I went to examine

a body flattened by a plane wheel.

Quite literally, like a pancake.

Couldn't eat breakfast
for a week.

Right.

So, uh, given the state of
this physical form,

were you able to learn...

just... well, anything?

Postmortem examination can be
revealing in any circumstance.

For example,

the liquid oozing from the car
wasn't all blood, per se,

since our marine bled quite a bit

before his body was dumped.

So, what was it?
Organs.

Decomposing and crushed
in the vehicle.

I was also able to identify
time of death

as roughly 33 to 35 hours ago.

And then there's the evidence
of how he died.

May have been crushed and broken,

but the pieces were there.

Well, most of them.

Part of the back of the skull is missing.

As well as the incisors.

This, unfortunately,

is not my first
gunshot wound to the face.

Any other signs of struggle?
That's harder to tell.

But there was something else.

I found trace evidence of a
unique chemical compound

in his sinuses and lungs.

Do you know what it is?

Not something I'm familiar with.

Sorry. It's cold.

It's all right.
Doing your job.

Are the leads warm, at least?

Nobody I talked to at K-Bay
knew where Cobb went

the night he was murdered,
who he was with,

or why he had a weird chemical
in his lungs.
Okay.

Did they have anything else
to say about him?

I did learn he was from Daytona.

Had no nonjudicial punishment.

And he also brought doughnuts
to work

at the motor pool every Monday.

So the leads are colder than the coffee.
Except...

in spite of a bright future with
the Marine Corps,

he was getting out.

Any word on where he was going?
Never submitted

for travel orders back to the mainland.

Maybe he was staying here.
I mean, it makes sense.

Everybody I talked to assumed
Cobb had

an entire life outside of K-Bay that
he just never talked about.

A life that led to his murder.

But do we have any ideas on what
he might have been mixed up in?

Drugs, reckless behavior?

Never popped positive
or arrested.

He was squeaky clean.

But, yeah, he had to have been
staying for something.

Can't just be the palm trees.

Maybe it was for someone.

Shh.

(louder): Representative.

Trying to get Cobb's cell
phone records?

Sorry about that.

I got his call log, but I've been
in automated hell

trying to access more.

You should've seen when I tried
to dispute a hidden fee.

They broke me like a bad habit.

Well, usually I'd be dealing
with Caroline,

but she went on her honeymoon
in Turks and Caicos.

Anyway, here's what else I
got on Cobb.

He didn't post much on social media,

but he was following 412
car accounts, literally.

And bank records show

a bunch of transactions at
auto retailers.

It's not surprising he was into cars.

He worked in the motor pool.

But what about a significant other?

There's one 808 number that
comes up a lot.

And if I could just get off hold,

I'll be able to find out who
it belongs to.

WOMAN (over phone): Thank you for waiting.

(Ernie shushing)

Hi, this is Ernie Malik from NCIS.

No, no, I usually speak with Caroline.

Oh, I know. (chuckles)

I know. She's so much better

I got her the griddler.
The stand mixer was taken.

Oh, my. Sneaky.

I know. Caroline is the best.

So if you could just unlock

Yes!

Dude, the griddler?
It was on her registry.

Oh, look.

808 number belongs to a Lani Jones.

Place like this is supposed to
be off-limits.

KAI: Yeah, well, according to
the records Ernie forwarded,

both Cobb and his girlfriend's phones
have pinged

in this location a bunch of times
in the recent past.

Why, though?

I mean, if they were teenagers,

this could be like some make out spot.

Oh, yeah? You and your

make out at a lot of airfields?

Great Falls Overlook on the
Potomac, actually.

Yeah, that's romantic.

You hear that?

So which one are you gonna follow?

The Challenger has 800 horses

and a finely tuned 350Z
maybe 500, 600?

All right, 350Z?
What?

No, the Challenger.

It may have more horsepower,

but it's also like 800 pounds heavier.

Guess we're going with
the 350Z after all.

(tires screeching)

What's the plan?

Not really sure. Improvising.

Yeah, says the guy driving
straight toward another car!

Ooh.

JESSE: Yeah.

How'd you do that J-turn
at that speed, anyway?

Fast hands.

So loosen your grip and
trust you won't crash.

Cool.

Hey.
What?

You do know it's illegal

to street race on the island, right?

First off all, not technically on a street.

Okay? And secondly, cops tend
to ignore us.

Long as we're not bothering
anybody.

We're not the cops. We're NCIS.

We're looking for Lani Jones.

You found her.

When was the last time you
saw Travis Cobb?

(door opens)

I... I thought he got called
into training.

Sometimes he can't talk for a
couple days.

How'd you two meet?

On the track.

My family's been involved

with racing...

pretty much since the first car
landed on the island.

And Cobb?

(chuckles softly)

Thought he was just another
military kine guy

with his chest all puffed up.
(scoffs)

Then he beat the best car
on the strip in a stock Mustang.

KAI: He was getting out of
the Marine Corps.

Was that to be with you?

Nobody else in the unit knew about you.

Is there a reason you two kept
the relationship a secret?

Marines couldn't know he was racing.

Any of the other racers know
about you two?

Better they did.

As long as Travis was with me,

they knew to keep their distance.

So you're saying he needed protection.

People don't like losing.

And especially to outsiders.

Maybe somebody lost bad enough
to ignore that protection.

People ever put money

or even their cars on the line?

Some do. Yeah.

How often did Cobb roll those dice?

(exhales softly)

Every time.

(lively chatter)

DANIEL: Boom.

TENNANT: Wow. Going hearty.

Well, feel like I'm about to earn
the extra calories.

So, you think Alex's bad grade

is symptomatic of something worse?

Maybe.

He's got on his plate, okay?

Things can snowball.
I know.

I stress about all the things
he has ahead of him, too.

I feel like there's a "but" coming.

I just... this doesn't sound like

a problem yet. That's all.

So you're saying I'm overreacting.
No.

I would never say that.

He is hiding something.

All right? He's just not around
as much anymore.

Stashes his phone every time
he sees me.

And you haven't figured it out yet?

He met a girl, Jane.

He doesn't hide them from me.

Naomi, Tess...

even Carly.

No one liked Carly, not even Alex.

Which means he must
really like this one.

I mean, you remember how I was
when we first started dating.

Every moment outside of work,
I was focused on you.

But I still held down a job, made
a life for ourselves.

Remember?

I'd page you to meet me for a little
late night movie?

Oh, my gosh.

You're really dating us now.

JESSE: We're talking $60,000 to
$100,000 cars

with tens of thousands of dollars

I am hearing a lot of words that
I understand individually

but not together.

Nothing.

I'm just... I'm thinking
about barbecue

and full transparency,
and it's freaking me out.

So, Whistler.

I thought everything was
smiles and sunshine

since you guys got back together.

Yeah, I know.
It's been amazing.

So amazing that she wants
to tell her boss about us.

It's a big deal.

Good.

Good, because then it's not
weird that I'm freaking out.

That's a big deal for her.
Why are you freaking out?

‘cos she's our FBI liaison.

What happens if her boss
changes his mind

after he finds out about us?

And then, and then we... we no
longer work together,

and then we start to grow apart and...

If that even happens, you'll roll with it.

Well, it's not just me. She's worried about it, too.
Of course she is.

I mean, Whistler might have
gone full Adele

in front of our entire team, but
she wasn't always that person.

I'm just saying.

TENNANT: Hey.

We got any more info about
the illegal races?

Uh, ask the resident expert.

(scoffs) Wouldn't say I'm an expert.

KAI: Oh, you do know a lot about cars.

And you were fanboying over
that maneuver

Lani pulled at the track.

I don't know.
I got into cars

and street racing a long time ago.

Oh, I feel like there's a story.

Well, it started when I watched
The Fast and the Furious.

I was wrong.

KAI: Wait, I'm sorry.

The movie about cars?

Uh, first off, it's a movie about family.

And are you serious, dude?

You haven't watched it?

Oh, right. It's not part of
the Nora Ephron

cinematic universe.
Oh.

Okay, listen, maybe you two can
have a movie night, all right?

But for now, how about pointing me

to any leads regarding Cobb?

Yeah.
Yeah.

KAI: We have been trying to
build a list

of who Cobb has raced in the past.

People he might have crossed

and who might've had reason
to kill him.

Lani couldn't tell us everybody,

so we started just tracking the
cars themselves.

Cobb's had several cars registered
under his name

over the years.

Yeah, all cars you could see on a track.

But he never seemed to hang
onto them for very long.

Not if he was rolling the dice every
time he went out there.

The latest is a Toyota Supra that
he registered last week.

No records of him purchasing it, either.

TENNANT: Then who did?

The car was so new it didn't
even have

a title in the system yet.

So we're in the process of tracking
the purchase.

That's got to sting, losing a car
you just bought.

Yeah, especially to somebody

you already think doesn't belong.

Well, where's the car now?

KAI: We can't find it.

It's not at Cobb's house
or at K-Bay.

So put out a BOLO.

Find the car, maybe we find
the murderer.

Ernie, any luck finding the Supra?

I sent HPD everything I had.

They pulled over a vehicle
matching the description.

Then why aren't you more like...

"Yeah, bro, I just solved the case"?

Mostly because I would never
say that. (chuckles)

But also this.

Footage of HPD pulling over the Supra.

(Kai sighs)

We're looking for a racer
and murderer, and, uh,

that guy looks like he says,
"It's mai-tai o'clock."

He said he purchased the vehicle
yesterday

through an online ad.

According to the VIN and title,
it's not Cobb's car.

Yeah, but it's the same make,
same model,

and it matches the description.

And what, we're just supposed
to believe

that it's not Cobb's car?

That is why you're not done.
Okay.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

It's called VIN cloning.

You take the VIN number
from a clean car,

put it on a stolen car
to mask the theft.

Cobb's car was stolen...

and ended up in a chop shop.

Can you, can you figure out
which one?

Using details from the images
of the ad,

signage, proximity to landmarks,

I may be able to I.D.

the location of potential chop shops nearby.

That's Kaka'ako.

ERNIE: Right around the street
from an auto repair shop.

Oh, it's a great place to
operate a chop shop.

So, when you say M.I.A...

(scoffs) Please.
I'll text you his address.

(heart monitor beeping steadily)

There's no way this guy killed Cobb.

He may know who did it.
He owns the place.

Mr. Chan.

I'm Special Agent Lucy Tara

from NCIS.

I have some questions for you.

You're the registered owner
of Surfrider Auto Repair.

We know it's a front for a chop shop.

A marine was killed in your facility.

Mr. Chan, if you're here, who's running
the operation?

KAI: Hey.

Someone's been visiting.

♪ ♪

LUCY: Lani Jones.

TENNANT: What else do we have
on Lani Jones?

All right, though her family

is racing royalty, it turns out they got

into serious financial trouble
about a decade ago.

They had taken out massive loans
to build a racetrack.

Except that's when all racing
on the island became illegal.

So they turned to a life of crime.

Cue "Uncle" Myron.

He had the infrastructure and
a cancer diagnosis.

It makes sense he let the chop
shop operate there

in exchange for early retirement.

Lani's dad was running it before
he passed,

and now she's in charge.

ERNIE: And it turns out

our devastated girlfriend is quite ruthless.

I dug into her past.

She has a history of violent behavior.

Cobb was ready to give up
everything for her,

and she killed him? Why?

LUCY: Maybe he changed his mind?

There's only one person who
knows the answer.

♪ ♪

TENNANT: Jesse, take the front.

Kai, take the opposite side.
Lucy, you're with me.

Lani's been cooperating so far.

You think she's gonna resist?

The second she realizes she's a suspect.

Lani's fleeing!

Jump!

(tires screeching)

This is Special Agent in Charge Tennant

requesting air support
for suspect fleeing

eastbound toward Farrington
Highway in a red Nissan 350Z.

I got to sign you guys up for
my dodgeball team.

Y'all go after her.

I'll stay back and clear the
house with Kai.

Where's Kai?
(engine rumbles)

(siren wailing)
TENNANT: Ernie,

tell me you have eyes on Lani.

ERNIE: Working on it.

HPD helo is arriving on station...

now.

Is Kai okay?

He's better than okay.
He's gaining on her.

(horn blaring)

Ernie, how far back are we?

You wouldn't happen to have

nitrous on that thing, would you?

(horn honking)

TENNANT: All right, how much road
do we have left?

HPD's setting a roadblock about
a half a mile ahead.

All right. Go, go, go, go.

(tires screeching)

JESSE: That curve's our chance.

You trust me?

TENNANT: What are you doing?

Loosening my grip.

(panting)

It's the end of the road.

TENNANT: Lani's in the process

of making a full confession
to Cobb's murder.

And turning state's evidence
about the chop shop's dealings.

It's probably the only hope
she ever has

of seeing the outside of a prison again.

Should help the FBI close up
a few cases, too.

Aren't you glad you trusted
me not to crash?

It was like I was
watching Bullitt.

No, Fury Road.

Or Fast and the Furious?

Kai cutting through traffic
like butter.

And that PIT maneuver.
Oh! It was a thing of beauty.

TENNANT: Okay, it was, but it was

way more intense in the passenger seat.

Well, that's just because
you weren't in control.

Me, on the other hand,
total control.

Aw, all this because she almost
ran over your friends.

KAI: I don't have friends.

I got 'ohana.

Bro!
(Ernie laughing)

I watched it last night.
It's good.

No way.
LUCY: Aw.

Tell me a time and a place,

and I'll watch the rest
of them with you. Um...

How many are there?

There's many.
LUCY: Mm-hmm.

So, so many.

Yeah?
And they're awesome.

ERNIE: It's a lot of them.

KAI: It's like a trilogy, right?
Way better.

LUCY: So, just a form, huh?

WHISTLER: Yeah, looks like I'll still be

dropping in as NCIS's FBI liaison.

I can't believe we were so
worried about it.

I went to some pretty dark places.

Uh, there is something
else, though.

My... my boss kind of assumes
you're a guy.

Oh.

I mean, Lucy's not really a
masculine name.

No, it... it's my fault.

I mean, he said, "Looking
forward to meeting him,"

and I should've just said "her."

Hey, hey. It's fine.
It's fine.

No, it's not, it's not fine, Lucy.

I...

I haven't done this before.

Have you ever introduced
a girlfriend to your coworkers?

You make it look so easy.
(chuckles)

You know, we don't have to do this today.
No, no.

I... I want to. I just...

It's a lot for me.

Well, you won't be alone.

I'll be right here with ya.

Always.

Okay?
Yeah.

Hey, I got your call.

Could've just called back.

Well, you know I'm terrible

That's right.

You were more of a pager guy.

(laughs)

Want a drink?
Yes.

So, Alex has a girlfriend.

Yes.

Not sure it was worth the trouble
of finding out.

Well, at least it's all out in
the open now.

I just...

I needed to know what was
going on with him.

When, uh, Alex was five years old,

he came into the living room...
You were running late from work.

Uh, something was going on with him,

and he asked me, um...

"How much longer until Mommy gets home?"

And I said, "Uh, an hour or so.
But maybe I can help you out."

And you know what he told me?

"It's okay.

I'll wait till Mommy gets home.
She'll fix it."

(chuckles softly)

Then you got home,
and you fixed it.

He was sad that day

because the kids didn't like
his show-and-tell about beetles.

(chuckles)

And he grew up.

Was kind of hoping you could
fix that, too.

(both chuckling)

You know, I think about
all the decisions

he's gonna have to make
this year.

What's gonna happen...

It's not just his life, Janey.

It's ours, too.

Every day, (chuckles)
I struggle

to stop myself from trying
to keep him on the track

I think is right for him.

Maybe we just need to loosen
our grip a bit.

(scoffs)

Trust Alex not to crash.

Fair enough.
