NURSE:
Relax, it's just a shot.

Rutnam, Rutnam,
take it easy.

Just calm down.

Hey, no one's
gonna hurt you.

No one's gonna hurt you.

Okay, okay, okay, I'm cool.

Okay.

(grunting)

Oh!

(grunting)

GUARD:
Hey!

Be safe out there, okay?

Thanks.

Hey! What the hell?

All right, this is it, this
is the perfect kid. I found him.

He is pretty cute.

Sam, you see that?

What's that, your first
mug shot, Deeks?

Oh, you mean
'cause he got styled

by pillow hair
and he's smirking?

Actually, that does
kind of look like me.

Deeks has signed up for
a mentoring program.

Ah, that's
commendable.

Please.
Yeah, I get to spend
every weekend with him.

Yeah, you could use
the supervision.

Listen to his likes:
Surfing,

fish tacos--
and wait for the trifecta--

the Three Stooges. And his
dislikes are rules and socks.

And now I'm gonna be a role
model. I'm, like, start,

you know, shaping his life.
You're gonna
shape his life?

Yeah.
So he'll
be stuck in

perpetual adolescence.
No, you know,
I think Deeks

actually has a few things
to teach this kid.

Thank you.
Really? Such as?

Such as expanding
his cultural horizons.

Oh, yeah, what kid wouldn't want
to play Grand Theft Auto V

and pause reruns
of Baywatch?

(everyone laughing)
You know what?

You make fun all you want,
but I'm stoked.

And in all reality,
this is like, uh,

you know, it's like
a precursor to being a father.

SAM: What?
Well, there's a start.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,
slow down, guys.

It's nice that
you're trying to help.

But it's one thing
to talk about parenting--

actual parenting
is a totally different thing.

Kamran having some
cell phone problems again?

You will never know how hard
it is to raise a child.

What makes you think I've
ruled out that possibility?

What?
Seriously?

What? I'm still
young enough.

Joelle and I have got
things back on track.

Y-You know...
You never know.

(chuckles) Little
lowercase Gs running around?

Look, if you're gonna do it,
take your time, start slow.

Uh-huh. How so?

Get a plant.
If that lives, get a pet.

One without a central
nervous system,

like a jellyfish.

A jellyfish?
A jellyfish.

Uh, okay.

(whistle blows)
ERIC: Guys.

We have a case.
Let's go. Now.

NELL: With 63 confirmed kills,
Gunnery Sergeant Connor Rutnam

was one of the most
talented and efficient

Marine Corps snipers
in Afghanistan and Iraq.

He retired after
his fourth tour and later

began showing signs
of psychological deterioration.

PTSD.

He's holding
an M40A5.

Used for long-range
precision fire on targets

in a concealed position.

Often rooftops,
targeting anything

from enemy combatants
to suicide bombers.

Which could include
women and children.

HETTY: It became clear
that Mr. Rutnam

was struggling
with adjusting

to life at home.

Until yesterday, he was
receiving treatment at the VA.

ERIC: A nurse and an orderly
were trying to restrain him

when he overpowered them
and escaped the facility.

So we have a mentally unstable,
highly-skilled sniper

on the loose.
With the presence

of mind to steal the orderly's
uniform and badge.

Which makes him
all the more dangerous.

Anything specific set him off?

HETTY: Not that
we could tell.

Mr. Hanna, Mr. Callen,

talk to the people
at the VA.

See if they can shine
any light on his condition,

uh, or whereabouts.

Let's do it.
Okay.

He also has a wife
and 15-year-old daughter

living in Beverlywood.

Whom you and Ms. Blye
are going to visit.

Yes, ma'am.
On it.

DOCTOR:
He was responding well

to the course
of treatment:

meds, counseling--
both one-on-one and group.

When did he start
going south again?

About two weeks ago.
Did something
trigger it?

Not that we could tell.
That's the paradox.

When a patient's condition
starts to worsen,

the hardest thing is to
get them to talk about it.
Any person

or place he wanted to see
on the outside?

Not that I'm aware of.

He might have said something
in his therapy sessions,

but those are off the record.

CALLEN:
Well, I'm sure you realize

the situation
we're dealing with.

I do.

Connor is a trained sniper

with serious emotional problems.

SAM: In a city full of
easy to access guns.

I don't write the rules,
gentlemen.

I'm just trying to make the best
of a lot of bad situations here.

We understand.

You might want to speak
with Mike Takahamo.

He was Connor's attending
nurse when he escaped.

Sorry, I just want to
get these in the fridge.

Take your time, please.

Have you heard anything
from your husband

since he left the VA?

GIRL (in distance):
Hey, Mom! Two cars outside!
(door opens, closes)

I haven't told our daughter yet.

DEEKS: I'm sure it must
have been hard on you both

when he was deployed.

Then he comes home, and...

It just didn't seem
that bad at first.

I mean, he wasn't himself,

like he wasn't quite here,
but that's...

to be expected.

But then he started
acting strange.

She actually means,
like, straightjacket

cray cray.

Who are they?

We work with your dad.

Lady Marine.

Must be exciting

you can finally get married
in California now.

Lisa!

What?

Pretty scruffy
for a jarhead.

It's a new look.

We're trying to
recruit millennials.

#scruffy.

Whatever.

You forgot to get Diet Coke.

(sighs) I apologize.

KENSI:
Oh, no need to.

We've all been 15 once.
Still am.

She's been through
a lot recently,

so we totally understand.

She wasn't the easiest
to deal with

before he went overseas,

and things just got worse

when Connor got sick.

Just attitude...

staying out late and...

You know, I can tell
that she's upset,

but she doesn't want
to talk about it.

The last time that we went
to visit him in the hospital

and she could see
he was getting better,

he hugged her.

I don't think I'd seen her cry
since she was ten.

Well, he's only been
gone a few hours,

and we are using all of our
resources to find him.

Absolutely,

and please,
if he contacts you,

let us know.

Uh, we also need
Connor's computer.

I'll go get it.

Thank you.

This was his room.

This is where he attacked you
and the orderly?

That's right.
You want to talk us through it?

I wrote it all in my report.

You mind
saving us a read?

The Cliff Notes will be fine.

Patient showed signs
of confusion and hostility.

We attempted to restrain

and sedate him.

Patient physically attacked
the orderly

and myself... end of story.

Now, if you'll excuse me...

Actually, we have
a few more questions.

I told you
everything I know.

What more
do you want from me?

You know, a better attitude,
concern for a missing patient,

that would be a good start.

Yeah, well, I am concerned.

Just as I am
for the other patients

that still that need attending.

Okay?

Okay.

Wow.

Somebody woke up on the
wrong side of the gurney.

Stressful job.

I'm sensing something
more than stress.

Insightful.

Maybe we ought

to put you to work here.

Already am.
Maybe you should do the same.

Uh-huh.

G.

I think maybe we keep these
under the mattress for now.

NELL:
So the e-mails

we pulled
off Connor's computer

don't point to anyone
in particular he'd run to.

DEEKS: What about
his browsing history?

Yes, there is a Web site

he paid numerous visits to.

He watched this video

a dozen times
before entering the hospital.

(gunfire, people screaming)
KELSEY: 1966. Charles Whitman.

A former
Marine Corps sharpshooter.

Barricaded himself

on the 28th floor
observation deck

of the University
of Texas Tower

with his Remington
700 Deer Rifle.

(sighs)

Wounded 26 students.

Killed 15.

NELL: We just discovered
an out-of-service traffic cam

on Nordhoff.

Now, the lens is cracked
and the view is limited.
Making it

unsuitable for the courts
but helpful to us.

Right. This is 15 minutes
after Connor Rutnam

attacked the nurse
and orderly.

SAM:
Someone knew his plan.

Can you zoom in any closer
on that car?

We tried-- it doesn't help.

ERIC:
We can only make out that it's

a Toyota Camry,
mid-2000's most likely.

What about that homeless guy?

Mm, I'd say his cart's
an Albertson's,

possibly late-model Safeway.

He'll be here all week, folks.

ERIC:
He seems to be

a regular on
that street.

This is the last
four days.

It's a long shot
he's gonna be able

to give us anything.

His field of vision
is wider than that camera.
I don't know

how focused his lens is.

That cart looks like
a BevMo! checkout.

ERIC: The car
was waiting there

a good ten, 15 minutes--
maybe he saw the driver.

Well, it's worth a shot.

Thanks.

I understand there's
been a turn of events

in the Connor
Rutnam case.

Indeed there has.

Mr. Callen and Mr. Hanna

found a baggie
of unidentified pills

under his mattress.

It's being analyzed
right now.

Well, I doubt the VA's
dispensing meds in plastic bags.

Do you think
this could be the cause

of Rutnam's latest troubles?
It's possible.

The question is,
who gave them to him?

Visitor?

Member of the staff?

I don't have to remind you of
the tenuous political situation

at the VA right now.

Actually,

I was thinking that we
could use that to our advantage.

It would be

unlikely to arouse any suspicion

if they received a visit from
an oversight compliance officer.

Who would naturally be granted
access to all files and staff.

I think Mr. Deeks cleans up
rather well, don't you?

Depends on one's standards,
I suppose,

but I get where you're going.

What about on the visitor side?

Ms. Blye's sniper background

should make
for a very believable patient.

That's what concerns me.

We're a long way
from Afghanistan, Owen.

I hope so.

MAN (on TV):
In 1988, physicist Bob Lazar

told friends
he'd seen flying saucers

when he was working
on a top secret project
(coughs)

at Area 51.

Hey.

Hey.

You just get here?

Yeah.

What branch?

Marines. You?

Rangers.

Don't hold it
against me.
(chuckles)

(TV show continues indistinctly)

So how you doing?

Living the dream, obviously.

Mm.

You looking for someone?

Yeah. A guy I served with,
I heard he, uh...

he was here.
Oh. What's his name?

Rutnam.

Connor Rutnam.
You know him?
Yeah.

He's not here anymore.

Got released?

No. He went AWOL yesterday.

Are you serious?

Where'd he go?

No idea.

You a sniper

like him?

Female Engagement Team, yeah.

Connor used to talk about it.

Killing somebody
from a distance...

didn't feel real.

Until... it did.

Is that why you're here?

I don't really want
to talk about it.

Sorry.

Wonder why Connor left
like that, huh?

I don't know.
He was doing fine,

then he
just started losing it

over the past few weeks.

Huh.

PTSD.

Think he told anybody
where he was going?

I don't know--
he had a couple of visitors.

And there was this one guy
he spent a lot of time with.

Well, you should tell
the staff his name.
I...

have no idea what it was.

(man clears throat in distance)

Nice talking to you.

Oh, my G...

Sorry, sorry.

(quietly):
Connor had several visitors.

He was tight with one.

Mm-hmm. Thank you.

(sighs)
Sorry.

No, it's fine.

DR. RIVERS: We had
a compliance meeting here

three weeks ago.

Everything checked out.

Checked out?

So you would consider the escape

of a disturbed
and dangerous patient

as business as usual?

'Cause I would argue,
Dr. Rivers,

the only thing
"checked out" here

is your staff,

who I will now be
thoroughly "checking out."

We have nothing to hide here,
Mr. Rogers.

You will have complete
and unfettered access

to anyone you wish
to speak with.

I'm also gonna need files
and records on everybody.

Fine.

I'll have all passwords
and authorizations

made available to you.

I'm sorry,
is there a problem, Doctor?

You know what my problem is,
Mr. Rogers?

No, but I instinctually feel
like you're going to tell me.

100 patients
with mood disorders,

post-traumatic stress
disorders,

substance abuse disorders,
bipolar disorders,

to name but a few.

Not enough time,

not enough money,
not enough beds,

not enough staff,
and now, you.

I'm sorry, Doctor,
I'm just trying to do my job.

Yes, you are.

I'm also gonna need
the visitors log.

Lots of people are in love
with the idea of having kids,

but most have no idea what
they're getting into.

Did you and Michelle?

I mean,
we thought we did.

Read books,
we took classes...

That help?

Hell, no.
(laughs)

(Sam laughs)

How you doing?

Excuse me.

Just want to ask you
some questions.

I'm gonna guess Desert Storm.

Enduring Freedom for me.

We're looking for another vet.

Took off from the hospital
this morning.

He bumped your cart.

He might be in danger.

Got into a car right over there.

Gray Camry, '93.

Paint on the hood oxidized.

White scratches on
the right front bumper,

probably hit a wall.

Replacement tires,

Michelin knockoffs.

You a mechanic?

Six years.

12th Engineer Battalion.

Didn't happen
to get a plate, did you?

Three, Delta,

Hotel, India...

(groans)

You're doing great.

SAM:
What about the driver?

You see the driver?

Asian guy,

like Pakistani or Indian.

30, maybe.

Look, I got to go.

Appreciate it.

Hey, hey, hey.

One sec, one sec, one sec.

What the hell
are you doing out here?

You don't trust them,
is that it?

What do you think?

They screwed up.

It's not all bad.

They helped me when I got back.

You got skills, man.

Any shop around here

would be lucky to have you.

You just got to get
your act together.

It's your choice.

You all right?

We send guys to war,
expect them to step up.

Then when they come
back all broken,

we step away.

Sorry to interrupt,
Dr. Rivers.

Trouble in the neighborhood,
Mr. Rogers?

Who has access to the meds,
the controlled pharmaceuticals?

Myself.

All of the doctors,
some of the nurses.

Nurse Takahamo?

He does.

Nurse Takahamo...?

Nurse, no!

(indistinct conversation)

DEEKS:
Hey!

NCIS.

(panting)

The game is up.

And just for the record,

next time, never run.

DEEKS:
Why'd you run?

I like to keep in shape.

Well, every federal prison
has a running track.

I'm sure you'll utilize that.

We found unauthorized pills
in Connor Rutnam's bed.

We also found
inventory discrepancies

with the meds
in lockup.

Meds that you had access to.

Lots of people have access.

DEEKS: You're absolutely
right, which is why

we looked at every
single discrepancy

to figure out which doctors
and nurses were working.

You were working
every single time.

You are the common denominator.

What did you find under his bed?

Is this how you want to play it?

You going to search my place?

No, we're gonna use
the honor system.

DEEKS:
You know Connor Rutnam

was a sniper.

You know he was one of
the best in the service.

Anyone he decides
to put in his sights,

you're gonna be
accessory to murder.

I didn't give Rutnam
any unauthorized meds.

So those pills
from the lockup,

they just magically evaporated?

No. I...

I took them.
KENSI: Wow.

Now we're just moving
around in circles.

I took them to sell,
but not to patients.

There'd be no point.

Half of them are already
getting oxy for free.

Besides, the patients
aren't allowed to have cash.

So what you're saying is that

you were dealing the pills
you lifted on the street?

I'm being honest here.

That's gotta count
for something.

You're being
honest because

your ass is being
nailed to the wall.

DEEKS:
So explain to me
how the pills

got underneath the mattress?

Anyone could have
brought them in.

We don't search visitors.

KENSI:
Well, Connor had several.

There was one in particular

that he spent more time with.

Do you remember?

Yeah.

He started coming by
the past few weeks.

Connor started
sliding soon after.

You got a name?

Mark.

Mark Simmons.

This is former
Army Corporal Mark Simmons.

He visited Connor Rutnam
at the VA

four times
over the past three weeks.

Did they cross paths
in-country?

Mmm, briefly,
in Afghanistan.

But records don't show
any contact with Connor

until the VA visits.

But they do show a
little something else.

(clears throat)

ERIC: Simmons was discharged
six months ago.

And shortly after,
he joined the PFA--

Protectors of a Free America.

It was founded by
Fred Kington, 1987.

A right-wing extremist
organization.

Hiding behind the flag.

They want to round up
every Muslim

and ship them out of the U.S.

Someone with Connor's skills,

be valuable to those guys
in the worst way.

KENSI: Especially if he's
pumped up with drugs

that make it easier to
control and manipulate him.

That would be scopolamine.
Lab results came back

from the pills you found
under the mattress.

Interrogation med.
NELL:
It's also known as
the "zombie drug."

Feed enough of it to someone
and you own them.

Well, Takahamo wasn't lying.

There's no street market
for that.

ERIC:
Now, we tracked the
car Connor got into

from the description
and the partial plate

the homeless man gave you.

NELL: It's registered
to a Vamsi Patel.

He's a driver for the
"Let's Cruise" car service.

Oddly enough, Connor's pickup
wasn't on the company manifest.

But...

Mark Simmons' pickup was,

just an hour before
Connor was picked up.

So the question is:
where's the next pickup?

Checking...

KENSI:
Mr. Patel.

Bambi!

What?

And you must be DJ Kimchee.

I got your text, man.

I've heard your mixes,
I'm a huge fan.

All right, check this out:

Your bachelor party
is going to crush.

Wow!
Spider Woman theme.

Brilliant.

I'm not a stripper, man.
Oh, no, no, no.

Of course not. It's 2015.

You, beautiful lady,
are a burlesque entertainer.

Empowerment, sister.
I am woman,

hear me roar,
everything Beyoncé talked--

Okay, not a problem.

You want to go with a little
sexy cop kind of thing,

I can work with that.

I think I just have
to go with...
Okay, listen, I need you

to take a chill pill,
all right?

Why don't you just take,
like, ten chill pills?

We're actual
Federal agents.

Wait, for reals?

Oh, for reals, reals.

You want to hire my ride
for undercover?

Law enforcement
discount may be

quite a lot...
Ehp, ehp, ehp...

What?

We realize this is
out of your territory,

but we really need you listen
right now.

You made a pickup
yesterday at the VA.

An unauthorized pickup.

Unauthorized?

No, I was going to put down...

Uhp, uhp, uhp, uhp, uhp...!

Prior to that,
you picked up Mark Simmons.

That was on the books.

Two questions:

First, are those two connected?

Now you can speak... briefly.

Okay, uh...

Simmons paid me 100 bucks
to get his friend.

He said this guy
did not have an account.

Second question:
where'd you take him?

Uh, the Valley.

Uh, Chandler and Colfax.

That's where the Protectors
of a Free America

headquarters are located.

I'm gonna call Callen.

Look.
Ooh, look at this!

You like that?

It's a good color.

How much?

Well, for you, uh,

15% good cop discount.

Okay?

What is happening?
DEEKS:
You heard the man.

I get a 15% off...

BOTH:
...good cop discount.

DEEKS: This thing is vintage.
You can't find these online.

You know who's
gonna love it?

My little brother.

What can I do you for, fellas?

Connor Rutnam.
MAN:
Afraid I don't know

who that is.
CALLEN:
What about Mark Simmons?

Ah, you just
missed him.

Mm-hmm.
Just missed him.

Where'd he go?
Well, let's see...

I think it was
the Latino Caucus.

Ah, hell,

what am I thinking?

Today's Thursday--
he volunteers

at the Gay and
Lesbian Center.

Oh, he's just getting in a few
hate crimes before dinner?

Well, you know what they say:

one man's hate crime
is another man's justice.

Is that what they say?

You think that badge puts
a white hat on your heads?

You're as much the enemy

as Al Qaeda,
far as we're concerned.

Your "enemy" is trying to save
a decorated war veteran.

SAM: Or do you
consider a Marine

who tries to save your sorry ass
the enemy, too?

MAN: It's been real nice
chattin' with you.

Where's your fearless leader,
Fred Kington?

Not here.

Is he helping some
hardworking immigrants

fill out their green card
applications?

That would be
illegal immigrants,

technically speaking.

Islam is the false religion
of the 21st century!

Islam causes poverty!

Islam pollutes
the honor of women!

Islam destroys lives!

Islam has got to go!
Islam has got to go!

(gunshot)

(people screaming)

Federal agents!
Federal agents!

Federal agent.

OFFICER: LAPD!
We got shots fired...

(people shouting in panic)

We need immediate backup!
Repeat: immediate backup!

Shot came from
across the street.

SAM:
It's a sniper shot.

The roof!

CALLEN:
Good.

Federal agent!

Fred Kington's in custody,
on his way to the boatshed.

DEEKS:
Guys in the SUV?

Didn't get a look
at their faces.

And from their builds,
it's possible one of them

could have been Connor.

SAM:
Driver from the car service

give you anything?

He said Connor didn't say
a word the whole trip.

Seemed zoned out.

That's the scopolamine.

KENSI:
Yeah.

The shooter was up here,
all right.

See that disturbance in the dust

right there, on the ledge?

That would have been
the shooter's elbow.

Right here, these two marks--

that would have been
his front foot

and the second mark
would've been his knee.

Which means the shooter's
left-handed.

In the photos
we saw in Ops,

Connor was shooting
right-handed.

Exactly.

So who took the shot?

And why do they need Connor?

Mr. Kington.

For the record,

my group does not advocate
killing Muslims here in America,

unless, of course,
they are confirmed terrorists.

Well, just for the record,

your manifesto proposes

the eradication of all
Muslim presence on U.S. soil.

Yes, by deporting them
back to their homelands

where they can practice
Sharia law all they want

and leave us in peace.

99.9% of them
do leave us in peace.

You keep telling yourself that,

you're gonna be responsible
for every tragedy

that comes down
in the name of Allah.

You know,
Thomas Jefferson himself

preached a policy
of isolationism.

We keep sticking our nose
in everybody else's business,

this is what happens.

CALLEN:
But since you can't
force the government

to adopt your deportation plan,

why not pop a few

outside their places
of worship, huh?

Give them the idea
that maybe moving here

wasn't such a great idea.
Mm-hmm.

And why would I have
someone assassinated

at the very place
we're protesting?

It's a hell of an alibi.

CALLEN:
You, on the ground

with your hands clean...
minions doing

your dirty work
from a rooftop.

I didn't see Mark Simmons
on your protest line.

I haven't seen
Mark Simmons in days.

But I do know one thing:

he's a true patriot.

Well, your "true patriot"
is messing up

Connor Rutnam's head
with scopolamine.

Making him susceptible
to someone's influence.

Say, the leader of
an extremist group

that could use
his sniper skills

to kill innocent Muslims.

I've never heard of
Connor Rutnam.

And by the way,

there's no such thing
as an "innocent" Muslim.

We confirmed Mark Simmons
is left-handed.

Though he doesn't have
any sniper training,

he did earn a marksman
qualification

during his time
in the Army.

We got an address?

We do, but I don't think
you'll find him there.

From what we gleaned
from his records,

Simmons drives a PFA van.

The traffic camera shows him
pulling into this parking lot

on 6th Street,
downtown today.

He's still there.

What time did he enter the lot?

An hour ago.
DEEKS: That gives him
plenty of time

to take the shot at the mosque
and get down there.
I'll call Callen and Sam.

DEEKS: Good work.
NELL: Thanks.

We got eyes on the van.

KENSI (over radio):
All right.

DEEKS (over radio):
Now so do we.

CALLEN: It's the white one,
right there.
KENSI: Yep, got it.

DEEKS:
Any sign of Simmons?

Not yet.

DEEKS: Listen, if we're gonna
be here a while,

there's a great little taco
stand around the corner.

SAM: It's a stakeout,
not a picnic, Deeks.

DAD:
Come on, guys...

BOY: Can we just go by 7-Eleven
and get some?
No!

Look at that cute
little family.

So, are Lori and Steve
gonna be there?
Stop it.

Mom, make him stop.

BOY (mimicking):
Mom, make him stop.

Why aren't the parents
doing something?

They are doing something--
they're ignoring them.

You know, sometimes you
got to roll with it.

She hit me, Mom!

Th-They're hitting each other.

Seems like pretty lax
parenting to me.

I'm not here to judge.
SAM: I have a theory.

Oh, yeah? Let's hear it.

It's called
exhaustion.
Mm-hmm.

CALLEN: You so
sure about that?

SAM: Yeah, I'm
so sure about that.

I'll tell you what,
we'll revisit the subject

in a few years when all of you
have a couple of kids each.

Mm-hmm.

That's if you haven't put them
up for adoption already.

(chuckles)

KENSI:
Head's up, guys.

Simmons is
on the move.

Mark Simmons...

Federal agents.

KENSI:
Stop!

CALLEN: Didn't take cover
behind the Dumpster very long.

He just came out firing.

Like he wanted us
to shoot him.

Suicide by cop?
Why hide behind
the Dumpster at all?

DEEKS: Maybe he was hoping
it would buy him enough time

to pick one of us off.
Then he would have fired
from behind the Dumpster.

Doesn't make
any sense.

Got a wallet, keys,
a little cash.

No cell phone?
No.

ERIC: Simmons' call history
connects him to a Karim Mubar,

a known Al-Qaeda sympathizer
here in Los Angeles.

What is a card-carrying member
of the PFA doing

with an operative
from Al-Qaeda?

Well, we have something
that might help.

Security cam footage
of the mosque shooting.

Keep an eye on the young man
just before he's shot.

He said something.

Play that back slowly.

Now zoom in.

(no voice)

Kens?

"Allahu Akbar."

Means "God is great."

It's a beautiful phrase.

Most suicide bombers say it
before they blow themselves up.

He knew Simmons was
gonna kill him.

Why?

My guess is to make it look like
PFA is killing innocent Muslims,

stir up anti-American sentiment.

Simmons was working
with Al-Qaeda.

They used him to get to Connor,
feed him the meds.

So the PFA membership
was a ruse.

Anybody got onto him,
the trail leads back to the PFA.

DEEKS: So both Simmons
and the young Muslim

sacrificed themselves
for the cause.

Unfortunately, that still leaves
Mr. Rutnam in Al-Qaeda's sway.

Must be saving him
for something big.

Maybe a high-ranking member
of the Muslim community?

Do we have anything
that puts Simmons and Mubar

in a common location
recently?

Yes, credit card
records put them

at a cafe downtown half a dozen
times in the past couple weeks.

Any mosques
near that cafe?

No,

but the Cantara Cultural Center
is just two blocks west.

And Amare Hassan
is scheduled

to speak at a religious unity
conference later today.

Hassan is a very well-respected
and popular Mullah.

He speaks out
against extremists.

His assassination would light
a huge fire

in the Islamic community.

It's a perfect target.

Event like that is gonna have
some serious security.

Which makes Connor Rutnam
the perfect assassin.

PILOT: Eagle One on site,
beginning rooftop search.

CONTROL: Copy, Eagle One.

Kensi, Deeks,
you in position?

Just got set up.

DEEKS:
I got the podium in my sights.

Which means if Connor's
out there, he does, too.

Hetty, have you been in touch
with the event coordinators?

Yes, and unfortunately
Mr. Hassan refuses

to cancel his address.

He feels it would signal
an act of cowardice.

And that means it's on us.

Deeks!

Anything
on the surrounding rooftops?

I got nothing, yet.

Connor's field of fire has
a number of distant buildings

he can make the shot from.

How you doing behind
that scope, Kensi?

I'm good.

DEEKS:
Copy that, she's good.

Eagle One, anything?

PILOT:
Negative contact.

Over.

We've got our eyes on every
distant building out there.

Maybe that's the problem.

Whoever set this up wanted
the insurance

that his long-distance sniper
didn't be spotted.

Put him in a closer building.

Yep.

GRANGER (over radio): Eagle One,
let's change it up.

Begin checking
the immediate area.

PILOT:
Copy that.

I got movement.

GRANGER: Sitrep, Agent Blye.

I got Connor plus two,
under the tarp at one o'clock.

I got 'em.

What's the location?

Uh, distance and bearing from
Kensi's scope data puts us at...

605 West Olympic Boulevard,
northeast corner.

We're one block out.

GRANGER:
Agent Blye,

if Connor lines up a shot,
you take him out.

KENSI:
Copy that.

(tires screech)

Kensi, we're here.

Connor in position, yet?

Almost...

GRANGER: Kensi,

we can't take any chances.

Kens.

Hold off!
We're almost there!

Kens, you good?

I'm fine.

GRANGER: Agent Blye, you're not
gonna get another opportunity.

This isn't his fault!
Just give us a chance!

GRANGER:
We have to stop him.

All right, Sam and Callen
are on the roof.

Take the shot, Agent Blye.

Kensi, take the shot now.

Sam, I'm sorry.

Federal agents!

Get back!

Stay down, Gunny.

That's a hell of
a shot, partner.

(gasping quietly)

Yeah.

Hands on your head.

Okay, don't move, Gunny.

Get up. Get up.

Get up.

All right.

Stay still, Gunny.

Okay, give me your hand.

It's gonna be okay,
all right?

It's gonna be okay.

HETTY:
I just got word

that Mr. Hanna has safely
returned Mr. Rutnam

to the VA hospital.

His wife and daughter are going
to join him shortly.

Well, that is great.

SAM:
Ah...

He's out there.

He's waiting for you.

Thank you so much.

¶ ¶

(computer chimes)

Oh, I got a message
from the mentoring site.

I cannot wait to have
my first meeting with...

...Byron?!

CALLEN:
"Dear Mr. Deeks.

"Due to
a scheduling conflict,

"we've reassigned your case.

Your new Little Brother is..."

"Byron... Chester."

KENSI:
"Byron's interests include

"three-dimensional chess,

advanced calculus
and..." (laughs)

"German opera."
N-No, German...

Uh, what happened to-to
fish tacos and-and surfing

and the Three Stooges and the
floppy hair that this is...?

Mr. Deeks.
Yeah.

This is gonna be good practice.

You can have all the
expectations you want

when you have children,

but you can never predict

who you're going
to end up with.

CALLEN: I think
Byron's gonna be great.

Plus you never know
when a working knowledge

of The Magic Flute is gonna
come in handy.

That's a German
opera reference.

I don't get that

because I don't
know a German opera.

Bravo, Mr. Deeks.

Bravo.

Bravo.
