Allah, in his wisdom and greatness,

has given us each a gift.

A gift that we must share with others.

Even if they do not wish to accept it.

It is our obligation

to share Islam with non-believers.

So that we may save them

from themselves.

My husband. You were anxious
to talk to him, weren't you?

That's a movie.

I'm starting to get over the idea...

Not just any movie.
That's "Double Identity".

Your power of observation is unearthly.
Now, leave me alone.

This is the best part.

I not gonna get between
a chick and a flick.

How do you know it's the best part?

Because it is the third
time I have seen it.

You don't even watch movies.

This is not a movie.

It's a classic film.

Yeah,
I know that. You don't know that.

Film studies?

Well...

I really appreciate that, Ziva.
Really, I do.

I am taking it because it is the best
way to pick up American colloquialism,

like "bug off."

You should watch
"Fast Times at Ridgemont High".

I saw it last week.
Sean Penn is a genius.

Phoebe Cates is a babe.

Now,

do you mind?

- I can get you a list...
- I have a list!

Bye.

Morning, Probie Pan.

Where'd you pick that up? Neverland?

No, Pottery Den.

50% off.
Got six of them for ten dollars.

That's pretty big, don't you think?

Well, I don't like getting refills
ten times a day.

Well, but I mean, that's a little...

A little what?

Seuss-ical?

Leave. I'm enjoying my moment.

Am I the only normal one here?

No.

Morning, Boss.

Marine killed.
Let's go.

Shotgun.

Anacostia and 18th,

not the battlefield he thought
he'd die on.

Baghdad's safer than this neighborhood.

Hey.

What do we got?

Ring, watch, and wallet are missing.

Government issue.

Could be the murder weapon.

A Marine killed with his own gun?

Nearly 30% of all

gun-related deaths

are the results
of the owner's own weapon.

Your first impressions, Mr. Palmer?

Well, there should be much more
blood loss evident.

Based upon?

Based on the position of the body,

even with the heart slightly elevated.

Precisely even

with a gunshot that high in the thoracic

cavity, one would expect more

- blood loss.
- Meaning?

Meaning I'm not going
to say anything else

until I've examined
the body more closely.

The gurney, please, Mr. Palmer.

Right away, Doctor.

Good lad.

Good Marine.

Sunni.

- How do you know that?
- If he were a Shiite,

he'd have a turba with him.

Like Hadji on "Johnny Quest".

No, I believe that's a turban, Tony.

A turba is a small stone tablet

that the Shiites
set their forehead on while praying.

The devout develop a callus.

Ziva.

Checking for local Sunni mosques.

McGee.

Checking all security cameras. Got it.

There's a Sunni mosque two blocks east.

Show me.

She cannot come in here.

Women are not allowed.

I will wait outside.

Federal agents.

She's with me.

She is welcome here.
As you are.

I'm sure you understand traditions.

We do not wish to offend anyone.

I am Jewish.

I do understand tradition.

You... wish to ask me questions?

No.

Then, you wish to speak to every man
who worships here under the age of 30.

No.

Then what?

We think this man
may have attended your mosque.

And what has he done?

Nothing. He is dead,

killed two blocks from here.

Do you know him?

Stahf'Allah.

This is my son.

Your son have any enemies?

Yes. Ignorance, intolerance, and hatred.

Any with a first name?

We would like your permission
to look at Abdul's things.

I'll need to tell the family
what has happened.

We will have someone drive you.

Thank you.

You wait here.

Please.

Come on.

Guy was with his son right before
he died. Suspect.

Victim.

Abdul Mohammed Bakr,

age 23, Lance Corporal.

Served in First FAST Company.

Bronze Star and Purple
Heart for service in Iraq.

Three tours, boss. He kept going back.

If he stayed, he might still be alive.

Hypothetically, Boss.

- What else?
- Had some run-ins with the law.

- Arrests?
- Assault and battery, twice.

Here in DC, both cases were dismissed.

Maybe they gave him favorable treatment
because he was serving in Iraq.

Find out.

Tracking down his personnel officer,
Boss.

- Cameras.
- Yeah

I tapped into Metro traffic cameras and
a few parking lot surveillance networks,

stitched together Abdul's route
from the alley back to the mosque.

There's no sign of anything until...

... here.

Can't get a reading on the man's face,
but he did go into the alley.

Back it up.

Stop.

Tighter his hands.

He was carrying a phone.

Forward.

Stop.

- Must have dumped it.
- McGee.

Already ran the phone records, Boss.

His cell didn't send or receive
any calls that day.

- Find it.
- On it.

Probie, you start the search near
the crime scene.

We'll meet you there later.

David, with me.

Captain's right down here.

I'm sorry, the correct answer is
"Full Metal Jacket".

That was not the best Marine movie.

"A Few Good Men" was.

Based on the fact that I'm right,
I'm overruling you.

If you're here to volunteer,

- we'll take you.
- I already have a job, Captain Mills.

NCIS.

We're here about a Marine.
Abdul Bakr.

You were his personnel officer.

Yeah,

First FAST Company. He's in Iraq.

No, he's in our morgue.

He was murdered earlier today.

God.

- He's such a good kid.
- Well, we know he had some troubles.

A few fights, he never started 'em.

We would like to see
his personnel records.

Sure, I'll...

I'll get you everything I got.

You coach?

Yeah, I'm a

parole officer in civilian life.

- We have an after-school league.
- Civilian life?

I'm a reservist,
recalled for active duty last year.

Manpower issues.

Iraq?

Iraq.

So, a parole officer
and a personnel officer,

that's kind of the same thing, isn't it?

Yeah, the Marine Corps likes to place
reservists in similar lines of work.

Makes things run more efficiently.

So in your professional opinion,

you think Lance Corporal Bakr's
run-ins could have led to his murder?

Maybe someone he
had a fight with came back?

Nobody stayed mad at him.
He was a good kid

and a great Marine.

And a Muslim.

Yeah.

That's what the fights were about.

He stuck up for his people.

Hard to be a Muslim and a Marine.

Was he ever sympathetic
to un-American activities?

No way.

Not this kid.

Ducky.

Just a moment, Jethro. Is the needle
in his femoral artery, Mr. Palmer?

Yes, Doctor.

Good.

Never seen a gunshot victim
with so much blood left in his body.

Rare but not unheard of.

And if the bullet pierced his heart,
it would have stopped pumping instantly.

And of course the pressure
of the boards on his back

may have prevented gravitational loss.

Right, that should do it.

Take those up to Abby.
Get her to run the usual tox screen.

Right away.

Neatly done, Mr. Palmer.

Thank you, Doctor.

That young man will make a first class
medical examiner one of these days.

Today?

Yeah, well, until I open him up,
I can't say for sure.

But all indications are that
he was killed by the gunshot wound.

There are no defensive wounds,

no lacerations, no abrasions,
no contusions.

And unless I find intradermal bruising,

no signs of a struggle.

A Marine
with combat experience let someone

take his weapon away from
him without a fight?

Well, I only tell you
what the body tells me.

Ask different questions, Duck.

I will, Jethro. I assure you.

Yes, well, the first question is,

what damage did that

bullet exactly do?

Ducky, wait...

Need to talk to you.

Mr. Bakr has something to say.

Dr. Mallard, please don't cut into him.

I beg you to respect our religion.

So my son can find peace in heaven.

With all due respect, we have to.

I beg of you, please don't do this.

Sorry, there's no choice.

There is a choice, Jethro. Mine.

I can't do this autopsy.

So what are you saying exactly?

That we have an obligation
to honor faith as well as science,

and in this case,
the wishes of the family.

We cannot waive an autopsy
in the middle of a murder investigation.

- Why not?
- Because the laws are very specific.

We can try to accommodate

some aspect of tradition
or religious ceremony,

but we can't forfeit the most
critical aspect of the investigation.

Abdul Bakr was a Marine
who died as a hero.

That young man risked
his life for this country.

The least we can do
is to respect him in death.

He didn't die in Iraq, Ducky.

Well, but that's not the point!

What is the point, Duck?

This country was founded on freedom,

religious freedom.

That family came here to practice it,

and I can't ignore
a basic tenet of their beliefs:

that if I cut open the body,

that will prevent their son from
finding peace in heaven.

There is no greater sin.

What about murder?

We need to find a cause of death.

We need to find evidence.

You need to do the autopsy.

That's it.

All right, I'll do it.

Under protest.

I have another body to examine.

So this will have to wait.

Why?

I already told you why.

Why?

This case brings back
memories of a mass grave.

I was a volunteer medical examiner

for a UN task force in Bosnia in '93.

I did 44 autopsies in five days,

most of them children under 12,

all Muslims.

The village was targeted because
of who they were or who they weren't.

Nothing more.

Selected for their ethnicity.

The parents begged me
not to autopsy their children.

Begged me on their knees.

But I had no choice.

I suppose I still don't.

I'll give you my report when I'm done.

His phone's got to
be around here somewhere.

Waiting.

"Juicy Fruit".

"One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Next".

Close enough.

"Hell, the fall will probably kill you."

"Butch Cassidy and the Sunrise Kid".

Great scene. Jumping off the cliff.

Did you try calling the cell?

Yeah. It's on silent mode,
or else I would have heard it.

Found it.

You scared the hell out of me.

- Sir.
- You lose something?

No, just escaped.

Gotcha.

Broken?

Does a baby change its own diapers?

Nay.

Does it burp and feed itself?

I don't think so.

It takes a lot of TLC
to keep my children happy and...

and fully functioning
in the lab of Abby, or

"Labby," as I like to call it.

You're my favorite.

Labby?

You want results,

you got 'em.

Yeah, I want 'em.

First. Fingerprints.

There were a bajillion of them,
all on Lance Corporal's Koran,

his clothes,

but none on his misbaha.

His what?

Misbaha.

Muslim prayer beads.

It's kind of like a rosary,
but different.

- And?
- I ran all the fingerprints

through AFIS, Interpol, the FBI.

Several worshiped at the same mosque,

but there's nothing to connect
any of them to this crime.

Right. Go on.

Abdul's prayer rug

and his boots tested positive
for phosphorus,

saltpeter, Semtex and C-4.

Explosives.

Yeah, which could mean one
of two things.

Give 'em both to me.

He was serving in Iraq with
FAST company a couple of weeks ago.

So if he was defusing
and handling IED's,

that would account
for the traces of explosives.

Or?

Or...
he was handling them once he got back.

That would not be good.

Terrorism.

I cloned and mirrored

Bakr's hard drive from his laptop.

He recently visited
three Jihadist websites.

It's training videos.

Suicide bomber's last statements.

Anti-American everything.

These sites are known hubs
for al Qaeda communication.

Lance Corporal Bakr visited these?

Well, either him or someone
that had access to his computer.

His father?

Good work.

Back to your babies.

Hey.

- Thought you checked phone records?
- I did.

Technically, Abdul never
placed a call or sent a text.

He did, however, press 11 keys,
before tossing his phone up on the roof.

He wanted us to find it.

Code.

Well, basic Marine letter substitution.

- Crude but very effective.
- And?

Well, he may have named his
killer, Boss.

Hans Staiger.

Suspected ties to al Qaeda in Germany.

Known as the "Recruiter".

Attempted to buy off several
customs officials in France last year.

Got away.

Where?

There's no record of Staiger coming
into this country or anywhere else.

He could be here with false papers.

Find him.

We looked.

If he's here, he's way underground.

Dig deeper.

- Where?
- Mosque.

Bug it.
That's where this all started.

Getting a warrant.

Would be easier if Bakr
just sent us a text message.

Not if he thought someone was monitoring
or intercepting his cell transmissions.

Someone was following him, Tony.

"Three Days of the Condor"?

Based on the novel "Six Days
of the Condor" by James Grady.

Hey, I got one for you two.
Find out who killed my Marine.

Nobody likes a know-it-all.

Gibbs does.

Warrant just came through.

Anyone else have a problem with this?

Bugging a place of worship?

Check. One, two, three, four.

If this were a Catholic church
or a doctor's

office, we'd still be judge-hunting.

I agree. It should not be so
easy bugging a mosque.

Give it to me.
I'm going in.

You're a woman.
It'd be easier for me to blend in.

- Yes, you would blend right in.
- All right, then we'll flip for it.

If I flip you, you will get hurt.

You can take her, Probie.

Do it.

Compromise.

Tony will do it.

I don't want to do it.

That's impossible.

We haven't even planted a bug yet.

There's a transmission
coming from inside the mosque.

It's already being bugged?

We tracked the signal back to the FBI

frequency, Mr. Langer.

I checked
and no warrant was issued to the FBI.

I can't confirm

or deny if the mosque is under FBI
observation.

This is a murder investigation.

Some interagency cooperation
would be nice.

Anything we should know?

Not that I can tell you.

That's crap.

We both know that you
can say anything you want to.

Did I come at a bad time?

Jethro.

- How are you?
- How'd they let you in here, newbie?

Man, it's been a long time.

You two know each other. How nice.

Taught him everything he's forgotten.

I thought you retired.

I tried.

You look good, old man.

Hey, listen, sorry about our

inconvenient convergence here.

Our what?

Gibbs used to fine me for
every three-dollar word I used.

How much?

- Three dollars a word.
- You owe me six.

See.

Marines.

No, actually, I started here.

Gibbs took me under his wing

and then proceed to crush me.

Nothing you didn't deserve.

Left me no choice but
to crawl over to the FBI.

Yeah, and they actually hired you.

Yeah, can you believe that?

Well, now maybe the NCIS and the FBI

can cooperate on this investigation?

We may be observing the mosque.

Well, that's a little vague.

I can't tell you any more than that,
Jethro. You know that.

Okay.

Well, I hope we don't
get in each other's way.

Well, now if you guys
find anything out then...

You'll be the last to know.

Hey, come on.

Excuse me, Director.

Jethro, I think I have it.

Have what?

A way to find the cause
of Lance Corporal Bakr's death.

You're going to do that autopsy?

No. Well, yes.
Well, in, in a manner of speaking.

But a lot of people are going
to have to look the other way.

Starting with you, Director.

Lost?

Actually, I was looking for Agent Gibbs.
He was just...

just...

upstairs a minute ago.

Can I help you?

Yeah. You...

Maybe you could give him
my card and ask him to call me.

I'm Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo.
I'm in charge here.

Well, hey, I'm Special Agent
Brent Langer FBI. You know that's weird.

I could've sworn that Agent
Gibbs said he was in charge.

He is.

Well, yeah,

he's in charge when he's here, but when
he's not here, I'm in charge.

I'm in charge.

Well, I'll just call him later.

But

thanks anyway.

What an ass.

Yes, indeed.

You're Langer-leering.
You're leering at Langer.

What if I am, Tony?

He's cute.

- "Cute". He's not cute. He's like...
- Don't speak.

"Bullets Over Broadway".

Woody Allen.

Very good.

You'd get a "B" in my class.

- I could teach your class.
- Yeah, right.

Officer David.

I'm going to need you to come
down to the evidence garage,

and I need you to
bring someone with you.

The key here, Jethro, is discretion.

We're not going through
official channels, Mr. Palmer.

Official channels take time.
That's the one thing we don't have.

Muslims desire their

dead to be buried within 24 hours.

That leaves us 13.

- Doctor.
- Doctor.

You have 20 minutes.

A minute longer, you'll get
found out and I'll get fired. Clear?

How do I repay you?

I just repaid you.

We're even now.

Something wrong, Mr. Palmer?

If this weren't a Muslim family,
we wouldn't be here.

That is correct.

I don't think anyone should
get special treatment.

We're risking our careers by doing this.

You can always leave.

- Doctor, I wasn't with you in Bosnia.
- True.

And I certainly wasn't on the Crusades.

But 9/11.

The Intifada. Hamas.

You have a problem with Muslims,
Mr. Palmer?

No. No, I do not.

But it seems like they
have a problem with us.

Religions have been the
basis of conflict for generations.

- So we just live with this?
- Until we learn to respect one another.

All right, Mr. Palmer,
let's follow the path of the bullet.

The resolution's astonishing.

Yes, and magnification...

You can actually almost see
as well as a traditional autopsy.

Angle of the trajectory indicates

the bullet traveled through the first
intercostal space avoiding

the heart and bronchial
branch of the lungs.

Missed all vital organs.

Went to the third intercostal space and

exited the back.

Hold your horses.

There seems to be a bullet fragment

chipped off the eighth rib

and then disappeared.

There's no other exit wounds.

Is the fragment still in his body?

Density's becoming an issue.

We're seeing too much bone
and not enough soft tissue.

MRI?

Excellent idea.

Tea?

You shouldn't have, but thank you.

Well, if you change your mind.

You're an Israeli Jew, no?

Yes.

I used to take my family to Haifa.

I spent my summers in Haifa.

No, just push it to one side.

You make it Arab style?

Strong.

I like strong.

You like Muslims?

Yes.

May I ask why?

I mean, I don't wish to offend you.

I'm just curious.

When you grow up in Israel,

most of your neighbors are Muslim.

My best friend was Muslim Arab.

He was a young boy.

We were very close.

Are you still close?

No.

He was killed when I was 12.

By an Israeli missile strike

on a hotel.

There has been too much death.

I agree.

Come on now.

Show us this bullet fragment.

What is it, Mr. Palmer?

It's moving.

His neck.

Is that a bullet fragment?

No, bullets are lead.

They're non-magnetic.

Turn off the power.

What is it?

This, my dear Officer David,

is what you call

an unexpected turn of events.

Abby.

Yay! It worked.

- What?
- My Gibbs early warning alarm system.

The Arabs used to put dried brush
outside their tents

to alert them in case
there was an intruder.

So I just updated it to bubble wrap.

You called me.

I know. It was a test.

You want to know what I found.

Trippy.

I like it.

I was able to extract an undiluted
sample from inside the needle shaft.

And voil�,
I give you the blue-ringed octopus.

A what?

It produces a toxin that's a hundred
times more deadly than cobra venom.

It's the most deadly natural neurotoxin

on the planet, and it's impossible
to trace in the bloodstream.

You did.

Well, because it wasn't
in the bloodstream.

It was still inside the needle
shaft Ducky found,

perfectly preserved and pure.

He walked a long way.

Because the needle snapped
off during insertion.

It was a result of oxidation and age,

so that resulted in metal fatigue.

Lance Corporal Bakr,

he only got a partial dose.

That's why he could walk for two blocks.

- Yeah, but it killed him.
- Yeah...

or the bullet.

I mean, it's hard to say.

I'm running the toxicology now.

Aren't you gonna ask me?

What?

Why the needle was
affected by magnetic force.

I mean, they make
these out of 440 carbon.

It's a non-magnetic steel.

Why?

Because...
the needle was really old.

It was, like,

from the '70s.

Not that that's...

That's not old.

I mean, well, it's old for a needle,

sure, but it's certainly

not old for,

you know, a man.

Where?

There's two companies in the
United States that handle the toxin.

They use it for research on antivenoms.

- They're both in the DC area.
- Names?

- Morgan Industries and Bio-Tonics.
- Have an e-mail sent...

I already e-mailed it to McGee and Tony.

You're my favorite.

Abs...

Lose the bubble wrap.

Go, McGoo.

Morgan Industries is clean.

Got it.
Probie's over at Morgan Industries.

They show no missing venom.

Can I help you?

Yes, we need to check your records.

You see?
Every drop accounted for.

- There's none missing from inventory.
- Check again.

I've checked four times.
I'm telling you, we watch this stuff.

Here you go.

Okay.

"Paycheck".

- Ben Affleck, Uma Thurman?
- That's right.

Ben plays the bad guy,

does dirty work for this company
and then they erase his memory.

Beats the bad guys by
mailing clues to himself.

We are going to need all
your shipping manifests.

Originals.

Everything that's been sent
out of here in the last six months.

McGee can go back and do
the same at Morgan Industries.

That's a lot of inventory to check.

We got time.

Okay.

Hey!

Where are you going, Jackrabbit?

I'm going to paradise.

- Where are you going?
- To the parking lot.

Put your butt in the back of our car.

Go.

Hacked into Bio-Tonics
worldwide tracking software.

We followed a shipment of the neurotoxin
from Bio-Tonics to Stanford University,

except the university
never received the shipment.

But as you can see,
Bio-Tonics tracking shows

that the venom was ordered
and delivered.

- Who signed for it?
- Nobody. It never got there.

It turns out that the university
never even ordered the neurotoxin,

so there was nothing
missing from the warehouse.

Enabling them to walk
out the front door with it.

- Who?
- Ryan Sikes, shipping clerk.

Thinks he's a jackrabbit.

And an ex-con.

Did time for armed robbery,

computer crimes, other assorted tidbits.

In prison, he converted to Islam.

- Get him.
- Got him.

Good.

There is only one God and He is great.

That's good to know.

Why'd you kill Corporal Bakr?

Why has this country killed
a hundred thousand Iraqi civilians

and 30,000 sick children

after they invaded the first time?

Corporal Bakr was a Muslim.

You're a Muslim.

Killing him, that's a sin.

How many civilians
have the Marines killed

on Muslim soil?

I'm talking about a
Marine on American soil.

Ryan.

Ryan is my slave name.

My real name is Akbur

Mohammed.

Your slave name?

Yes.

You want a statement?

Death

to America.

You want a confession?

I did it.

I killed that turncoat bastard.

He turned against his own people...

Hey, what are you...?!

He didn't even look.

Gibbs doesn't need to.

Get in here!

Were you gonna tell me about this?

The ankle bracelet was
a condition of his parole.

We have requested the tracking
records from the parole office.

Be able to put him in the alley
at exactly the time Abdul was killed.

I already confessed.

Now, I killed him.

Boss?

Bad news.

Just got the tracking records back.

GPS records show that Sikes was

20 miles away from the crime scene
at the time of the murder.

He's got an airtight alibi,
the US government.

Waiting on you, newbie.

Are you still working on this damn boat?

Finished it twice.

This is number three.

And still drinking the same beer.

So, yes,

we think the mosque is a recruitment
center for al Qaeda.

The cell in DC?

No.

Al Qaeda's changed their business model.

We think they're paying people now,
cash,

to Muslims and non-Muslims, US citizens.

Capitalist jihad.

Smart.

More like dangerous.

We're pretty good at monitoring
radicalized citizens, but, now,

anyone with a need or greed might
be playing on their team, who knows.

- You think our murder is connected?
- Possible.

The dead Marine's father,
he's on our watch list.

Why?

Everything we've got is on this,
and it's not much.

To be perfectly honest with you,
I'm not even sure why we're

investigating.
Homeland is working on something,

but it's so compartmentalized,
no one's sharing.

MP3 files.

Last six months of recordings
from inside the mosque.

- Thanks.
- Don't thank me. I was never here.

You ever consider using power tools?

You are still a pain in the ass.

I learned from the best.

Catch you later, Boss.

Khalid is asking for some money
to be made as a donation to the mosque.

This other man is speaking Arabic,
but it is not his first language.

Think he could be German.

What's he saying?

Khalid is accepting cash
paid through an offshore account.

Running the voices through Interpol,
FBI and databases.

Start with Hans Staiger.

Positive ID, boss, it's Staiger.

Suspected al Qaeda recruiter.
Wanted in four countries.

No face, no prints,

just calls intercepted
over the last year.

We don't know who he is,
just that he is.

And that he's talking to Khalid.

You're okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

The funeral home is sending a car.

- Thank you, again.
- Thank you.

Your son was a great credit
to his country and his culture.

Jethro, he family has requested
his personal effects to be returned.

Anything you want to tell me?

About?

Anything.

- Why do you hate us?
- I don't.

Your people do.

All we ask for, is to live in peace
and observe our beliefs.

I think you are.

Islam came to your country
with hostility in 2001,

and that was wrong.

But you came to our land 500 years ago
and you've never left.

All we wish for, is to be left alone
to practice our ways,

and yet you cannot leave us alone.

Why?

Why did the recruiter kill your son,
because he said "no"

or because he said "yes"?

There is a man.

- A German.
- Hans Staiger.

He recruits for al Qaeda.

This recruiter approached my son.

Abdul was gathering information
for the authorities.

A spy for his government.

I called the FBI.

I called them to investigate
my own mosque.

I killed my own son.

No, you didn't.

But until we find who did,

we need to keep his body
a little longer.

Find this recruiter

and allow me to have my vengeance.

Please.

He's mine.

The body stays, Duck.

I already released the body.

Well, un-release it.

I determined a cause of death.

The poison may have weakened his system,

but it was the gunshot that killed him.

The body stays.

Until we find our killer.

- I have killed for less.
- You cheated.

- Did not.
- Yes, you did.

That is a book of movies.

I bet you never saw all those movies,
you just read the book.

- I like books.
- I like movies.

Don't quote books,
I will not quote movies.

What if it's a book
that's been made into a movie?

Patterns.

George C. Scott, 1970,
won seven Academy Awards,

- including Best Picture, boss.
- Patterns.

Patterns, not "Patton".

Patterns?

If this is al Qaeda,
that means activity.

Activity means patterns.

Dead Marines who are Muslims.

Checking.

That's all we've got, two of them.

A Shiite Muslim stationed at Camp David.

Died of unknown causes two weeks ago.

Sergeant Major out of Norfolk,
Sunni, died last week.

Both were stationed in Iraq,

both had run-ins with the law.

- Both died of natural causes.
- They have something else in common.

- What?
- They're both dead.

No. Something else.

- What?
- What?

Same personnel officer.

Look,

I'm a patriot.

I'm a volunteer reservist.

With money problems.

You're divorcing your wife,
claimed you were broke in court,

you oversee a lot of drug addicts,
access to needles,

access to Brian Sikes.

Which gave you access to the toxins
used to kill three Marines.

We found $270,000 in your shed.

I guess your money problems are over.

What exactly are you charging me with?

A German named Hans Staiger
was paying you

to help recruit troubled Muslim Marines
to serve for the other side.

Two of them obviously refused
and are now dead.

I'm a parole officer,

I know how the system works.
Lawyer...

- right now.
- You killed a Marine yesterday.

- Shot him with his own gun.
- Why would I do that?

To make sure he was dead.

"Natural causes" didn't work as well
for him as it did for the other two,

so you followed him and you shot him.

Lawyer.

Boss. Sorry.

Ducky needs you.
Now.

Sorry.

Sorry.

I was wrong.

- About what?
- The gunshot.

Abby's toxicology report.

Abdul was dead before he was shot.

Some of the poison did get
into his system.

If your personnel officer
did shoot him,

he didn't kill him.

The most you could legally prove
is that he desecrated a body.

If we don't have him for murder,
he'll never give up the recruiter.

We just matched the slug
from Abdul's body to your gun,

not his.

- That's impossible.
- Yeah.

And a good lawyer could prove that,
but you're not getting a lawyer.

You're getting a transfer

to a Naval base in Cuba.

It's called Gitmo.

Ever heard of it?

Case closed.

I can give you Staiger.

He's the one
who injected Corporal Bakr,

and the other two Marines
when they wouldn't cooperate.

He said it'd be quick. The needle broke,
so he followed him from the mosque,

he shot him.

You just happened to be there?

I was the go-between.

You want more?

I want a civilian case,

filed with the DA's Office,

with the guarantee that
I won't be prosecuted for terrorism.

Deal.

Staiger.

Bedford Hotel.

Room 126.

These belong to Abdul.

They were returned to his father.

Are you sure?

Gibbs, I...

No, nothing like them.

I didn't think so.
