All language subtitles for NCIS - 16X13 SHE

GIBBS:
I had a dream that I was her.

I was trapped.

I could not get out.

Yet I believed
there would be a savior.

To the very end, I believed.

But sometimes
a savior never comes.

Team Gibbs!

Are! You!

Ready! Ha!

Happy morning,
and...

Happy Random Day.

Oh. Thank you.
What is this for?

Oh. Instead of buying for people
on Christmas or birthdays,

I choose one random date
each year to give gifts.

Uh... why?

What makes you
feel more special,

getting another present

when you're
already rakin' 'em in,

or getting one...

on a random Tuesday?
(McGee gasps)

My "Q" key!
Where'd you find this?

- I've been looking for this...
- For your vintage

X28 Ryson typewriter.
Yeah, I know.

You mentioned it in passing.

McGEE: Yeah.

No... way!

I've been
wanting a scarf

that's not too thick
and not too thin.

Yeah, I know.
You mentioned it in passing.

Ooh, I can't wait to see
what I mentioned.

What is this?

It's a jar.

Happy Random Day, everybody!

(chuckles)

You got a punching bag?

Yeah, those punches I landed
at the Studio-Art Brawl of 2018

really got
my juices flowing.

I mentioned in passing
I wanted to get one...

KASIE: Yeah.

It's secondhand,
but it's a beauty.

You know, I think
I might take it home.

I was gonna, uh,
leave it down in Autopsy,

but can you imagine the glare
I would have gotten from Gibbs?

Oh, you're getting
a pretty good one right now.

Gibbs. What
terrible timing.

I mean me,
my timing, not yours.

Uh, let me
move this for you.

Grab your gear!

We have a situation
on base.

Uh, hey, Gibbs.
Happy Random Day.

I have a hunk of a tree strapped
to the top of my car for you.

I found it by the
side of the road,

and I thought you
could just woodwork

the crap out of it.

JIMMY: Well,
the back of him

looked really excited.
- You think?

Oh, yeah, yeah.

I don't know.
What do you want me to say?

I'm telling you, I have
never seen her before.

All right, we're gonna need you
to calm down.

Are you gonna help or not?

Just wait here.

The guy says

he found a young girl hiding
in his storage unit.

She won't come out.

He said she's terrified of him.
She's hiding

behind some boxes in there.

All right. Just make sure

he's giving us
the whole story, huh?

Bishop, with me.

Hey there.

My name is
Special Agent Gibbs.

Do you know
where your parents are?

(quietly):
She keeps looking at you.

Give it a try.

(quietly):
Okay.

Hey.

I'm Ellie.

What's your name?

Lily.

Lily, huh?

That's a really good name.

Hey, where do you live, Lily?

In the basement.

In an apartment around here?

Hey.

You cold?

Do you want to wear my coat?

What's that?

Oh.

It's a jacket,
'cause...

it...

is way too cold

to go outside
without it.

I don't go outside.

Hey, Lily...

the basement
where you live,

is this your first time
outside of it?

He locks the door.

Mommy tries to open it...

but he always locks it.

Your mom was
in the basement, too?

(voice breaks):
She's still there.

Where, Lily?

Do you know how to get back
to where your mom is?

(crying):
No.

(whispers):
Okay.

(sighs)

Doctor says she's undernourished

and highly susceptible
to illness.

Spend your whole life locked in one room,
you have no immunity.

Mm. They're gonna keep
her for a few more days,

build her strength,
run some more tests.

She say anything else
about where her mom is?

SLOANE: No. She's regressing
by the minute.

The more overwhelmed she becomes
by this huge, foreign world,

the more she
retreats-- plus,

what the doctors
originally thought

were bug bites on her arms
and legs were actually burns.

(exhales)

I, uh, I could try
to talk to her again.

That's not a bad idea.

Lily's without the one person
in the world she trusts.

- Yeah. Her mother.
- Yes.

And she defaults
to trusting women

because of what she suffered
at the hands of a man.

You think that you
can get her to talk?

Gibbs...

I already made
a connection with her.

Bishop,
that girl needs us in the field.

Chase down every lead we can.
We find her mom. Come on.

Okay.

Update. Let's go.

KASIE:
Incoming.

We got ourselves
a DNA hit, people.

I found a familial
match to Lily

in the DoD database.

- You ID'd Lily's mother?
- Yep.

She is Navy Seaman Recruit

Morgan Burke.

McGEE:
I remember her.

She was reported missing,
what, eight years ago?

Ten.

Boss?

Getting some air.

Gibbs gets air?

I've got the NCIS Report
of Investigation. "18-year-old

"Morgan Burke was reported
missing by her mother.

"Morgan had been
sworn into the Navy

but never reported for duty."
McGEE: That's right.

She hadn't really started
her service yet,

so NCIS handed the case over
to the sheriff's office.

I pulled up some
news articles from back then.

According to her mother,
Morgan was pregnant at the time

of her disappearance.
McGEE:Yeah, and then they

found her body
in the car, right?

Well, her car
had gone off a cliff, killing her.

KASIE: It says her remains

were charred.

What little DNA they pulled
was contaminated.

They ruled it a suicide.
Yeah, but if Morgan

is still alive,
that's someone else's remains

who were in that car.

Well, and Morgan, she was
abducted when she was pregnant,

and she had Lily
in captivity...

She must have been held prisoner
in that basement ever since.

Ten years.
The port says there's

a continued file at the annex.
- Why do we have

the continued file
when we handed over the case?

I don't know.
But I'll check it out.

I'll help.
You know,

Lily couldn't have
gotten that far

from the basement on foot,
so I'm gonna start

the search grid for Morgan
at a five-mile radius.

MAN:
My name is

Detective Paul Atwood.

I headed up the investigation

into Morgan Burke's
disappearance ten years ago.

Why, Gibbs. Come on in.

I was on a team that ruled this
a suicide at that time,

and I take full responsibility
for that grave error.

I will find Morgan,

and I will bring her home.

- Don't say it.
- One thing they had to do:

keep it out of the press.

I had to update
them, Gibbs.

You can spin this
any way you want,

but it was a Breen County
Sheriff's investigation.

They went public with it
to try to save face on TV.

I can't begin
to figure out

what went on
in their heads, Gibbs.

We never should have handed
this case off.

Well, look at you.
Bringing up ten years ago?

- Yes, I am.
- Well, that's a new one.

Usually the past
is nipping at your ass,

and you're running
full steam ahead the other way.

Morgan Burke was Navy-- that case
should have been ours.

She hadn't served
a day yet.

I approved that handoff.

I followed protocol in doing so,

and so did
everyone else involved.

So... are we done talking
about this already?

- This case is ours now.
- At the very least,

the sheriff's office will want
to do a joint investigation,

and I don't see them
walking away without a fight.

Maybe not.

But you're the bigger dog.

(door opens, closes)

Hey, did you see
what Kasie gave Vance

for, uh, for that
Random Day thing?

- A pen.
- Huh.

Who gives a pen as a gift?

What are you so angry about?

Because I never said
I wanted an empty jar.

Everybody else got
something they wanted,

and the director and I
got the shaft.

I mean, why would... why would
Kasie play us like that, man?

(gasps)
KM-216.

Here it is.

(grunts)

But look at all these dates.
They go all the way

up to 2013-- that's years after
the police ruled this a suicide.

"Ben Ramsey,
boyfriend of Morgan Burke."

Look at all these.

- Yeah.

Whoever was investigating this
must have thought this was

a murder, not a a suicide.

Who was investigating?

Oh, my God.

What?

Look at the reflection
in the window.

You can see who's
taking the picture.

BISHOP:
That's Ziva.

Ziva David.

Ellie. Ellie, wait.

This is a bad idea.

Look, if Ziva suspected Morgan's
boyfriend of murdering her,

it's possible he abducted her
and we need to talk to him.

No. I mean,
not telling anyone.

You don't think McGee
would want to know

that Ziva kept investigating
this thing? Gibbs?

Okay, for whatever reason,
Ziva wanted to keep

her investigation a secret
and I'm gonna honor that.

Look, you're protecting someone
you haven't even met.

And for what, Ellie?

Ziva David is dead.

And I wish she wasn't.

Look... people are afraid to
talk about her in front of me

because they think
I'll never measure up.

That's not even the
part that gets me.

What gets me is...
I feel cheated.

Like there are things that
I could've learned from her

that I couldn't get
from anyone else.

Look, this touchy-feely stuff

is... obviously not my thing.

But not telling Gibbs,

that's a bad idea.

If you don't agree with it,
you can stay here.

Listen, I have a deadline in,
uh, 33 minutes.

And I could lose
this entire account, so, uh...

is there any way
you could come back later?

That's you, outside of the home
of Morgan Burke,

two days after she went missing.

What were you doing there?

I was visiting her mother.

Ziva David took these,
didn't she?

How did you know that?

(exhales)
Because she-she thought

there was
some questionable things

about Morgan's car going off
that cliff.

She thought she was murdered.

She thought you did it.

I mean, she followed
me for-for months.

She must've been like some
kind of ninja, but, uh,

well, eventually,
she cleared me.

- And how do you know that?
- She told me.

And she promised
to find the person

that did this
to the mother of my child.

You know that, right?
Morgan was pregnant...

when she was killed.

The baby was mine.

- Ben, listen...
- You know, Morgan's mom...

I used to drop her off
at Ziva's office late at night

so they could
talk, you know?

She used to call Ziva
her nightlight.

And when I found
out Ziva had died,

I thought that that,
uh... that light,

that hope for justice
had gone out, too, but now...

Hold-hold on. Ben, you mentioned
Ziva's office. You mean NCIS?

No. The-the-the
other office.

The one behind
the house on Leland.

Leland and what?

Uh, east of 14th, maybe?

Uh, look, Ben,

there have been some
developments in Morgan's case.

Agent Torres will fill you in.

What's going on?

(over P.A.):
Amber Alert.

(announcement continues
indistinctly)

Hang on, hang on.
Uh, what...?

- Hey, Dr. Conrad. What...?
- It's Lily.

I stepped out to get her chart,
and she was gone.

Oh, no, Lily.

Lily.

Lily. Did you see
a little gir-- Lily!

Lil...

Lily!

Hey.

Hey, just give me a minute.
I have her.

Hey, there, Lily.

It's just me.

(door closing)

Can I tell you a secret?

Okay.

A long time ago,

I had a baby girl.

She was perfect,

just like you.

But I only got to
hold her once.

But I felt her little fingers,

and her head on my chest,
and I loved her.

I... (inhales)

I loved her so much,

that I, I had to send her away.

My mom loves me, too.

Yes, she does.

That's why I was thinking

maybe she sent you away, too,
is that right?

And now it's our turn
to help her.

I have a dad.

His name is Ben.

Mommy said he was like Superman.

So maybe he can save her.

Yeah, maybe.

Uh, and what about you, though,
Lily?

Think you can be brave
for your mom?

Tell me about the man
who locked the door.

(shuddered breathing) Robert.

Do you know his last name?

There was another man, too.

Buddy.

He was nicer.

He brought us food
when Robert was away.

(crying):
But Robert...

Robert hurt Mommy

and I hid under the sink.

Mommy said...

to give her to the police
when I got out.

Thank you.

Lily, honey,
how did you get out?

(crying):
No. No. I want Mommy.

Oh. I know, I know.

I know you do, sweetheart.

Come here.

Oh, it's okay.
It's okay.

Update, McGee.
Where are we with the grid?

Well, our agents have searched
every home with a basement

within a five-mile radius
of where Lily was found.

So far, nothing.

Bottom line is we need
to know how Lily escaped

in order to know where
to look for Morgan.

Where is Torres
and Bishop?

Haven't heard from them.

Agent Gibbs, Detective Atwood
from Breen County.

Yeah, I saw you
giving a speech on TV.

Listen, Sheriff Jones
sent over a formal request

for a joint investigation
an hour ago.

- I didn't see it.
- It was sent to your director.

Yeah. I got it
and I'm denying it.

Here is my formal
response... on paper.

Thank you for saving me
the cost of a messenger.

Listen, we're just looking to
pool every available resource.

We want Morgan home
same as you.

You know, boss, if he
really wants to help,

he could find out whose remains
those were in Morgan's car.

'Cause they sure weren't hers,
like you said.

Yeah. Why don't you do that?

And give our regards
to the sheriff.

(scoffs)

Tell you what,
this new pen

makes me write like a big dog.
(chuckles)

So I made the initial incision
here, enabling me

to peel back the epidermis--
w-well, the-the fabric,

uh, showing me
what was inside.

- Stuffing.
- Hairs.

There were two distinct
DNA profiles in there.

I'm running them both
through the system now.

SLOANE:
My God, that is brilliant.

Morgan sewed the DNA in the
doll, and told her daughter

to give it to the police
when she escaped.

She essentially handed us
the identity of her captors.

If... we get a ding.

Ooh, that is what

- I am talking about.
- The hairs?

KASIE: Yeah, I got a hit
on one of them.

A Robert Hill.

Lily said her captor's names
were Robert and Buddy.

Robert being the primary.

Uh, it looks like he was
arrested in 2008 for assault.

Got probation,
last known address...

is now a strip mall.

But it looks like
a guy named Bud Hill

bailed him out of jail.
Relation, brother.

- Buddy.
- Got an address for him in D.C.

Hey, Gibbs.
We got something.

Yeah.

(door opens)

What the hell are you doing?

Kasie called.

She caught me up to speed.
Where's Bishop?

I don't know.

McGEE:
Boss.

GIBBS:
That him?

McGEE:
Yep. Buddy Hill.

There's no basement,

and no evidence that Lily
and Morgan were ever here.

Sloane said the brother
was the primary.

The badder one.
Yeah, Robert Hill.

He's got Morgan
somewhere else.

My neighbor said you were
wandering the streets.

Oh, yeah. I didn't know
the exact address.

Mm-hmm.

So Ziva rented
this place from you?

Just the office.

She started
back in 2005,

paid for it in advance
to help me financially.

Because that was
her way, wasn't it?

A warmth beneath
the armor.

Mm. You never
rented it out after that?

Oh, no.

The last time Ziva made
a payment was four years ago

from Israel before her death.

So, technically, it's still
hers through next year.

Out of respect,
I haven't touched it.

Wait.

Show me your badge again.

I'll leave you to it.

(dialing)

GIBBS (on phone):
Bishop, where are you?

Uh, Gibbs...

I have something to tell you.

McGEE:
"For weeks, it was darkness.

"I had stopped counting
the horrors I endured.

"And then the monster
lifted the hood.

"The light spilled in,
and I saw my friend.

"My heart saw him as
if for the first time,

and I knew I could
not live without him."

That was from when she
was captured in Somalia, right?

So, you guys didn't
know about this place?

Gibbs, she didn't tell you?

No.

Did you talk to DiNozzo?

I tried. Senior said he's
on his way back to Paris.

I left a message.

Listen, boss, there really isn't
anything classified in these.

I don't feel right
about reading them anymore.

Okay.

So don't.

But tell me what
she was doing here.

Well, she started
renting this place

right after she became
a liaison at NCIS.

The first few books
are in Hebrew.

She switched
to English after that.

McGEE: Each one of these books
represents a case

that Ziva was working on.

She wrote about
what she was feeling.

How the grief of
a victim's family pained her.

How a killer made his
way into her dreams.

Things she couldn't put
in an official report.

Personal things.

It's like every case got
into her head, and she had

to get it out somehow,
and so she did...

on paper, alone in this room.

And, uh, this is
the one on the...

Morgan Burke case.

Whoa.

I like this woman.

What do you got, Torres?

I went through the
rest of the files

that Ziva had at NCIS.

20-some-odd suspects.

Ziva... cleared all of them.

Wait, you knew that Ziva was
investigating after the handoff?

Go back to headquarters.

Get back on the case. Go.

Boss...

Tim.

I got it.

I will take care of her things.

Gibbs--
Morgan Burke--

clearly, every case
mattered to Ziva,

but she kept
investigating this one

even after it was handed off
and you knew about it.

So why was this case
so important?

The next time you withhold
relevant information,

you are gone.

- Gibbs...
- Rule ten.

Get back to the office.

Keep your head
in the game.

JIMMY:
Death has a way

of finding us all--
the good ones, the bad ones,

and even the enablers
of evil.

Like you, brother Buddy.

Body tell us anything about
where Morgan might be?

Well...

(sighs):
I'm afraid...

not a word.

- Hey, Jimmy?
- Yeah?

I, uh, I scanned through

some of Ziva's journals,
and she mentions

a "basement confidant"
quite a bit.

She called him Mr. H.,
which stood for...

- Happy as an Oyster?
- Yes.

- (chuckles): But shouldn't it be "clam"?
- It should.

It should be "clam," yeah.
(laughs)

It's about you, right?

I had no idea

you two were so close.

Eh, it must be something about
being this far underground--

you know, people feel safe,

like they can
really confide in me.

Hey, uh...

so, do you feel like it would
be an invasion of privacy

for me to read this?

I just...
I really want to find out

why this case was
so important to her.

Well, I could tell you that.

She told you?

She did. Yeah.

So, this was one of her
first solo assignments

as an NCIS probie.

She was just following up
on a recruit

who failed to report.

But when she got to the scene,
the sheriff's office told Ziva

that the case was theirs.
- Mm.

She was the one who
handed over the case.

Yeah. And when Gibbs
found out...

(exhales)
He was...

well, he really laid into her.

He said: Morgan Burke
took an oath.

She was Navy.

And we never hand over
one of our own.

That was a mistake.

And it was a mistake
that Ziva never forgot.

So she never stopped
investigating.

That was the thing that
I will remember most about her.

She-she was always just so...

Put it this way--

she'd see that fire
in your eyes...

she would have told you
to read every word.

(takes deep breath)

GIBBS:
His own brother cut his throat.

Wow. Are we sure?

Kasie is.

Robert Hill's fingerprints
were all over the murder weapon.

So he trusts his brother
to feed his captives

whenever he's out of town,
and he repays said brother

by taking him out
with a beer stein.

Family first.

Robert Hill is
tying up loose ends.

He knows Lily escaped.

Good chance he's
on the run with Morgan.

Or worse.

- Gibbs.
- Leon.

- Clock's ticking.
- This, um,

outside office
of Special Agent David's.

Yeah, I'm handling it.
I have the journals.

I'll clear out the rest
of it when this is over.

It's just a room, I know.

But it must be
bringing up a lot.

Lot of what?

When a daughter keeps
a secret like that,

father has to ask himself why.

She didn't think
I would approve.

She was right.

(door closes)

Lily?

Hiya.

I have someone
I want you to meet.

Hey.

It's okay.

This...

(whispers):
is Ben.

This is your dad.

Hi.

It's okay.

Hey, Lily. I've been...
been so excited to meet you.

I think this is
yours, right?

Mommy said you had
a mark on your hand

that was like a heart.

Yeah.

She said you were like Superman.

(crying):
Please... you have to save her.

Oh...

Hey, Lily, hey.

Listen.

The only way

I can help your mom
is if you tell me

exactly how you got out.

(breath trembling)
Okay?

Robert hates germs.

Everything has to be clean.

So Mommy burned us
to look like bites.

She told him our mattress
had bugs in it.

(breath trembling)

And she made a spot for me
to fit inside the mattress.

SLOANE:
Did your mom convince Robert

to take the mattress
out of the basement

and get rid of it?

He took it to the place
with all the garbage.

Uh, the-the dump?

(breath trembling)

I crawled out after I heard
his truck drive away.

And then I ran until
I was too tired.

Oh, hey, you did so good.

- Good girl.
- You did good, Lily.

Hey, buck up, dudes.

The mattress ought to be
around here somewhere.

Oh. Oh, seriously?

Please, don't even tell me
what just leaked on my pants.

Mama, this better be
the right place.

Oh, no, this is the only dump
within ten miles

of that storage unit.
Right, McGee?

Hey, McGee?

What? Oh, yeah,
yeah. Sorry.

It's been a... it's been
a crazy couple days.

Uh, hey, Kasie?

Hmm?

Did I do
something to you?

- What?
- You know, like something

that would make you
want to give me

an empty jar
as a gift?

(laughs):
What?

No. I just... I never heard you
mention something you wanted,

so I decided to give you
something you needed.

What am I gonna do
with an empty jar?

I don't know. Put something
in it you don't want to lose.

I don't know. Look,
everybody needs an empty jar.

They do?

I found it.

This has got to be it.

That's where Lily hid.

Can you imagine?

Hey. Wait, so, Morgan Burke,

she makes a plan,
she executes it--

the mattress, the
hairs inside the doll.

We got to think that
if Robert Hill's on the move with her,

she's leaving more clues.

What are you telling me?

I made a tip line for the public
to call in with info on Morgan.

Okay.

Yes, Gibbs,

I read this.

But I learned something.

Ziva, she let everything in.

She let it affect her.

And it made her work harder,
but it also,

it made her see clearer.

I told you to keep your head
in the game.

The stuff in here
matters, Gibbs.

Look. Look
at this last page.

Morgan's mom, she had cancer.

Before she died,
she dictated a letter,

and Ziva wrote it down.

Do you see this?

Ziva promised to read this to
the man who did this to Morgan.

That's relevant how?

When we get Robert Hill...

I'm gonna read him this letter.

I'm going to honor
Ziva's promise.

Rule ten. Say it.

Say it.

Never get personally involved
on a case.

So what?

No, so what?
I connect with Lily,

a-and you put me
in the field.

I want to fulfill the dying wish

of our victim's mother,
and you say "Rule Ten"?

No, Ziva was personally
involved in every case.

- Don't you tell me about Ziva!
- Then what about you?

You were furious
when she handed off the case

because you take every case
personally, too,

even one you only had
for half a second.

(quietly): Enough.

No. Rule Ten-- it's B.S.

Every time I look at that
desk, you know what I see?

She is not there.

You ignore Rule Ten,
you go too far,

you end up dead just like her.

Go home. You're off this case.

BISHOP:
Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

Uh, of course, yeah.

- She asked me to hang on.
- Hey.

Look, I know I
said you could have

your tip line
transferred down here,

but that was before I knew
Gibbs sent you home.

Yeah, but the woman on the phone
might have the location

of Robert Hill's uncle.

Uh-huh. What do you
think Gibbs is gonna do

if he sees you down
in my lab working,

as opposed to at home
regretting your life choices?

(elevator bells dings)
(quietly): And there he is now.

(quietly):
Kasie, I have to do this.

GIBBS:
Update! Let's go!

Yes.

Torres. Uh, hiya, Gibbs.

Listen, I wanted to explain

about that hunk of wood
in your parking space.

Yeah, the white oak.
I loved it.

- Now give me something else.
- Yeah. Okay.

Um, well, Lily said

that when she was
inside this mattress,

Robert Hill dragged it out
of his house to his truck.

On the side that scraped
the ground, I found something.

The address
of where they're holding Morgan?

Man, how easy
do you think this job is?

- No. I found bird poop.
- You ID the bird?

You mean did I get the bird's
name and Social Security number?

No. Seriously, you two?

I analyzed the excrement
and confirmed that it came

from a caique parrot,
and according to the website,

"Caiques of Fairfax County,"
two pet caiques

were accidentally released
and have since spawned.

They are often spotted in this
area of northeast Virginia.

Still so many houses.

Got something
from Detective Atwood.

Love letter
from the sheriff?

Oh, no. Actually, Atwood did
exactly what we asked him to do.

He reanalyzed a sample of the
remains found in Morgan's car.

Turns out they found traces
of heat refractory concrete.

From a cremation
chamber.

Yeah, the remains
were likely stolen.

Atwood tracked down
a crematorium where

Robert Hill worked
ten years ago

under the alias
"Randall Howe."

Randall Howe.

Got it.

One home address for

a Randall Howe
within our bird-poop radius.

Send it.

Bishop, did you hear that?
We got him!

Bishop?

GIBBS:
Lights.

TORRES:
They're not here.

Kasie.

KASIE:
Gibbs, Bishop's gone.

Where is she?

Mr. Fisher?

They found us.

I see your truck
in the driveway.

Get to the boat.

Move!

I need to talk to you
about your nephew, Robert Hill.

- Help me!
- Shut up.

Get in the boat!
(whimpering)

NCIS!

Help...
Shut up.

You put the gun down,

or she's dead, you hear me?

Put it down!

Look, I ain't playing, lady!

Okay. Okay.

Putting it down.

There it is, Robert.

Putting it down, okay?

Now it's your turn.

I need you to
let her go.

(grunts) You stay there!

You stay where you...
Uh. Uh.

You stay...
(grunting)

(Robert grunting,
Morgan groans)

(panting)

GIBBS:
I had a dream that I was her.

I was trapped.
I could not get out.

Yet I believed
there would be a savior.

(chamber clicking)

To the very end, I believed.

But sometimes,
a savior never comes.

Stop!

McGEE:
NCIS!

Drop the weapon!

(Robert gasps)

(both grunting)

GIBBS:
Hey. Hey!

You're done.

(grunts)

Ellie?!

(grunts, pants)

Okay.

GIBBS: When I awoke,
I knew I must not forget

what it was to be her.

(rhythmic breathing)

(groans)

Oh.
(coughing)

Okay.

There we go.

Hi. (panting)
Lily?

Where's Lily?

She's safe.
You're safe.

Okay? Okay.
Oh.

GIBBS:
So I fight, and I kick,

and I scream, and I feel...

Mommy!

GIBBS:
...and that is good.

- Hey.
- Uh.

(frogs peeping)

GIBBS:
It is good to let it in.

It is good to feel.

"Because feeling
brings me power.

"Feeling is what
makes me realize

"that the savior
I have been waiting for

is me."

That was on page one.

The first thing
Ziva wrote about this case.

Yeah.

(taps on table)

Robert Hill had a heart attack
on the way back.

He's at Mercy Point, Room 118.

Do what you have to do.

- Gibbs...
- I know.

I know.

(door opens)

(door closes)

BISHOP:
Robert Hill.

Hey, Robert.

You. What do you want?

I have something to read to you,
and you're gonna listen.

It's a letter
from Morgan's mother.

Yeah, I got it.

What?

Somebody already came here
and read it to me.

(exhales loudly)

Who?

(Robert laughs)

She told me she was
gonna haunt my dreams.

(door creaks open)

(sighs)
