I thought
I was alone out in the woods

until I heard a branch crack
behind me.

And that's when I saw him.

Two beady eyes staring at me
from the darkness.

Then a dozen more.

And that's when I realized,
I wasn't just up against one.

I was facing a whole gaze
of raccoons.

Have you seen
my peanut butter cups?

You know, the thing

with raccoons is,
you got to think like 'em.

I know they were here.

I've eaten
two peanut butter cups every day

for the past two years.

It's the only thing that
keeps me sane in this place.

- Hey!
- Yeah,
other than you, Marge.

I mean, we're Rangers.

We should be doing
some search and rescue,

solving a crime...

or two.

Are you doing
what I think you're doing?

Peanut butter and chocolate.
I knew it!

Stink's all over you, Marge.

Get back to your desk.

Hello? Hello?

Is anybody there?
Can you hear me?

Caller, this is
Grover's Bluff Ranger Station.

Go ahead with your transmission.

Oh, thank God.
I was in a plane crash.

Sorry, ma'am.
Did you say a plane crash?

Yes. Flight Tango 371.

My name is Lieutenant
Rebecca Lee, U.S. Navy.

And I'm the only survivor.

You think it's those kids again?

Got tired
of calling in yeti sightings?

This isn't a prank, Marge.

Flight Tango 371 did go missing.

Then why didn't the National
Park Service send out an alert?

Because that plane disappeared
six months ago.

Third time
you've made that sound.

Mm-hmm.

- Need me to call Jimmy?
- No.

No. Uh,
my arm is just a little stiff.

Mm. Yeah. Mine, too.

Except I got shot,
so, what's your excuse?

Baseball. Interagency game
against the FBI was last night.

Baseball?

Is that a new hobby?

Well, it's America's pastime.

How'd it go?

Uh, good, good.
It was a tight game.

- Pretty good. Yeah.
- I heard the Nats

- pulled it out in the ninth.
- Different league.

McGee played
in the NCIS-FBI game last night.

Ooh. Right.

Those, uh,
get pretty competitive.

Yeah, more than you would think.

- Who else was there?
- Uh, Nick, actually.

NCIS was short a few players,
so we, uh... we filled in

at the last minute. Ooh. Oh.

How'd Torres do?

Good morning, champs.

Well, that answers that.

Sounds like
you had a good game, Nick.

I did okay.

This guy, he made a double play
and hit the walk-off home run.

Like, and what,
you haven't played, uh,

baseball since high school?

Oh, it's a team effort.

Spoken like someone
who's naturally

good at everything,
without even trying.

You know, your-your words
say compliment,

but your tone says
something else.

Oh, you remember that time
we took you to karaoke,

and you sang "Jailhouse Rock."

- Uh-huh.
- They named a cocktail

- after you.
- Yeah, it was a mocktail,

and, uh, it was delicioso.

You two signing up
to play next week?

Yup. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I need
to, uh, sharpen my skills.

It's just, you know, I know

where I left a few runs
out there.

Plus, I'm working
on a spreadsheet for optimal

batting order based on the, uh,

on-base percentages
for the team.

Gonna do the old
Moneyball thing, you know?

Speaking of inside baseball,
we've been requested

at the NTSB warehouse
in Arlington.

The department of trains,
planes and automobiles?

Why do they want NCIS?

Well, let's you and I
go find out, Babe.

- Parker.
- Easy. Easy, Great Bambino.

Let's go.

Everyone makes that assumption,

but the NTSB doesn't handle
automobiles.

That's a common misconception.
We mainly focus

on rail, marine and, of course,
aviation incidents.

And this is all you got left
of Flight Tango 371?

Well, so far.
We've been at it a few days,

but there are more pieces
coming in.

Humanitarian mission to Haiti,
delivering vaccines.

Flight dropped off the radar
on its way home.

We assumed it got lost somewhere
in the Atlantic.

But it turned up
in the Appalachian Mountains.

About 200 miles off course.

- How many people on board?
- Five.

Two pilots,
two medical professionals,

and one very lucky
Navy lieutenant.

Lieutenant Rebecca Lee.

Wow.

She not only survived the crash.

Spent six months alone

- in the wild.
- I've never seen anything
like it.

Of course, I mainly deal
in bodies, or pieces of bodies.

Or one time, there was this...

Okay, yeah. No. No, we got it.

- We got it.
- NCIS doesn't typically

respond
to civilian aviation accidents.

Even if Navy personnel
are involved...

Oh, this definitely
wasn't an accident.

Grant Lancaster, in-house
counsel for Global Wings Relief.

Glad to meet you both.

I mean, under...

the tragic circumstances,
of course.

I'm guessing Global Wings Relief
is the charter company

responsible for this plane?

For the plane, yes.
For the crash, mm, not so much.

A lawyer from the company isn't
exactly an objective observer

when it comes to liability.

Hmm. I'm sure your investigation
will prove me right.

Wait. Hold on.

- You want us to investigate
your plane crash?
- Yes.

And we will cooperate fully.

- Said no attorney
to law enforcement ever.
- Oh.

Uh, play them the black box.

Mm.

We just recovered it
this morning.

Something's coming in hot
on the radar.

- Do you see that, Jim?
- Affirmative.

Moving too fast to be a bird.

Then what the hell could it...?

Mayday, Mayday.
Center, do you copy?

This is Flight Tango 371.

We have lost power, and we are
attempting an emergency...

- Any idea what hit the plane?
- I can tell you

it wasn't a bird.

Are you saying this plane

was shot down over U.S. soil?

That's what NCIS is going
to figure out.

Flight Tango 371

was a couple hundred miles
off course

when it was allegedly shot down
by some kind of missile.

Plane is owned and operated
by Global Wings Relief.

An NGO that specializes

in bringing humanitarian aid
to hot zones.

It was on its way back
from a joint

Navy-civilian mission in Haiti.

Interim Director has made
solving this case a priority.

Well, there are several
anti-government groups in Haiti

with the resources
to launch this kind of attack.

Mm, except
it happened here at home.

It could be local extremists

who don't like
American resources going

- into foreign countries.
- Yeah.

But these groups tend
to take credit for their attack.

Our plane went down
six months ago,

and it's been radio silence.

So maybe it wasn't
a political attack.

Maybe it was personal.

Maybe one of the
passengers was the target.

- Final remains are being sent
to Jimmy now.
- Leaving us

with Lieutenant Lee,
our sole survivor.

Navy public affairs officer.

She was in Haiti documenting
the Navy's involvement

in delivering vaccines.

According to her
unit commander, she was never

supposed to be on that flight,
but one seat opened up

- at the last minute.
- You see?

That's why I never change
plane reservations.

Alone in the woods
for six months.

- How is that even possible?
- Looks like

we're about to find out.
Lieutenant Lee's been cleared

by medical and ready to talk.

Lieutenant Lee.

I'm sorry about the racket.

Um, you want some chocolates
or cheeses?

I-I... I can't stomach
any of it.

Uh, no, no.
Thank you. We're good.

Hello? No.

She's not interested.
Please stop calling.

Reporter from the Post again.

Oh, this is Michael Bell,
my field producer.

He was in Haiti with me.

We are just so happy
to have her back.

I mean,
she's a freaking miracle.

We've been in war zones,
but what Rebecca did...

I'll get it.

What...?

That's better.

So, you have some questions
for me?

If you don't mind.

We'll, uh, we'll try
to make it painless.

Yeah. Let's get it over with.

Let me get these out of the way.

Lieutenant Lee, I know
this is gonna be difficult, but

what do you... what do you
remember about the crash?

Not much. Um, one minute,
we were in the air.

The next,
I'm in the middle of the forest,

still buckled to my seat.

I searched
for the other passengers,

but they were all... dead.

Waited for nearly a week,
but no, uh, rescuers came.

That's why you left

the crash site?
To try to hike out?

Took whatever I could carry.

Blankets,
a broken emergency radio,

a handgun the-the pilot had.

I, uh, hiked for days,

trying to find my way out
of the mountains.

But, uh, winter hit hard,

so I had to make shelter,

um, hunt for food,

try not to freeze to death.

Every day became just about
trying to survive to the next.

Praying for rescue.

- You okay?
- Yeah.

- Yeah. Thanks.
- Okay.

I was messing with
the emergency radio for months,

trying to repair it,

and finally, I got it to work.

But it was almost
out of battery,

so I set out looking for
the highest ground I could find.

I only had one shot
to make contact, and, um...

Lieutenant, it's okay.

But I'm hoping you could go back

to what you remember
before the plane went down.

She told you
she doesn't remember the crash.

What about
right before the crash?

Anything during the flight
stand out?

I'm a nervous flier,
so I distracted myself

by filming out the window,
and, um,

that's when I heard
the first explosion.

The first explosion?

- How many were there?
- Two,

or-or three maybe.

You said that you were filming
on the plane.

Did the camera survive?

Yes. I-I... I took it with me

to the shelter, but I...
I left it behind.

Footage could have evidence
of what happened to the plane.

You think you could tell us
where to find that shelter?

Yo.

Oh, hey there, slugger.
Heard about

the big win last night.
Uh, but I'm curious.

What is making McGee
go full Bull Durham?

Oh, that would be
because of Mateo.

Oh. McGee's newly discovered
teenage son is into baseball.

- Got it.
- Yeah, I think he's trying
to connect with Mateo,

but I don't think
it's going well.

McGee wants to invite the kid
to the next game,

because he wants to impress him.

Impress him?

Oh, come on. What? Like, degrees

- from MIT and Johns Hopkins
aren't enough?
- I know. I know.

I'll talk to him when I get back
from the Appalachians.

Jess and I are going up there

to search for Lieutenant Lee's
missing camera.

Oh. The Appalachians.

And you're going
dressed like that?

I got a jacket in the car.

Okay, City Mouse.

Uh, Jess is, uh, Wilderness
First Responder certified.

She'll make sure you're safe.

Uh, first of all, I don't think
I like that assumption.

And City Mouse? Really?

You know what?
Let's change the subject.

- Yeah.
- Yeah. To our four victims here.

All four had
the same cause of death.

It's the unfortunate combination
of an unstoppable force.

The plane meeting
an immovable object--

the ground--
so, no surprise there.

No surprises
with their backgrounds, either.

The pilot has
a perfect flying record.

And the passengers were
squeaky-clean aid workers.

So no reason to believe that any
of them would be a target

- of a missile strike.
- That's because

there was no missile strike.

I have gone through every scrap
of NTSB data,

along with Lee's limited
recollection of the crash.

And there is one thing that
no one can seem to understand,

which is why this plane was

several hundred miles
off course.

Now, that's a big error.

But the pilots didn't mention it
on the black box,

or to air traffic control,
which means...

- They thought
they were on course.
- Yes.

Because the GPS was telling them
they were.

You think the GPS was broken?

I'm saying the GPS was hacked,

and the radar system.

Someone was feeding both systems

bad information, sending
the plane way off course.

Okay, so what do you think
made it go, you know, boom?

Well, because whoever
hacked the plane was giving it

a false altitude reading.

When a plane is flying in low
altitude, it requires more fuel.

This plane thought
it was flying low for hours.

That's a lot of extra fuel
in the engine system.

So the engine overheated?

Causing a cascade failure
of the plane's electrical system

and resulting
in multiple explosions.

Plane wasn't shot down.
It was sabotaged.

Let's not throw the "S" word
around so easily.

This plane was sabotaged,
Mr. Lancaster.

It's best you accept that.

Kind of hard to accept,
considering aeronautical systems

are among the most cyber-secure
in the world.

Impenetrable from the outside.

But not from the inside.

You think someone
from our company is responsible?

I think we're gonna find out.

I'll need access
to your employee files.

Okay, you'll get your files.

You've got your job to do.
I've got mine.

Which includes looking down the
barrel at five huge lawsuits.

Actually, uh, it's six lawsuits.

Agent Parker, you're gonna want
to come see this.

- Is that a...?
- Yup.

Any of your bodies
missing one of these?

Uh, no. They all came with two.

What exactly does that mean?

It means you had a stowaway
on this flight.

Are you sure you don't
want mosquito repellent?

Yeah, I'm sure. It won't work.

Mosquitos can't resist
my natural musk.

How hard that must be for them.

Hopefully,
Lieutenant Lee's camera footage

will answer some questions.

Yeah, but we have
to find it first.

We've been hiking for, what,
like, three hours?

45 minutes.

But don't worry. The sooner
we find Lee's shelter,

the faster we can get you back
to that cozy chopper.

All right, Dora the Explorer.

What does Lee's directions say
to do next?

"Head north just beyond
where the river bends.

There's a rock formation
that looks like hens."

Those are not directions.
Those are lyrics to Pocahontas.

Well, you know what? I think

that you're getting
a little hangry.

And I've got some PowerBars.

I have got brownie,
I've got oatmeal raisin,

I have got chocolate.

I was saving the key lime
for me.

I don't want a protein bar, okay?

I just want to find the shelter
and go home.

This must be hard,
being out of your element.

- This is my element, okay?
- Mm-hmm.

Just don't want to carry
an REI on my back to prove it.

It's okay, Nick. No one can
be good at everything.

What are you talking about?
I'm the one who found the bush

that's shaped like a penguin
that got us this far.

That was luck.

And don't worry, City Mouse.

I got your back.

City Mouse always
finds the cheese.

That's a whole lot
of food there.

- Are you expecting company?
- I wish.

Rebecca got ravenous
all of a sudden.

Then lost her appetite
the minute the food arrived.

I don't know how to help her.

Hmm.

But she's in the other room.

She's expecting you.

Oh. Thanks.

Just me.

Can't sleep in the bed yet, huh?

No, it just feels... wrong.

It'll take some time, but...

...you'll get used to it again.

Promise.

Food, too.

How do you know?

I, um, had an experience once.

Not like yours,

but, um...

I was held prisoner
on a-a boat once

for about two months.

I kind of thought
I'd never make it out of there.

But when I did...

Reentry was complicated.

And before that?

When... when you were
a prisoner, how...?

How did you make it?

Well...

My wife Delilah--

she was, um...

she was pregnant
with our twins at the time.

So,

no matter how scared I was,
or how dark it got...

...I knew
that I had to make it home

to be a father for my children,
you know?

So I figure
you have more questions?

Yeah, I do.

There's evidence
that there was, um,

a sixth person on the plane.

Do you remember anyone else
on your flight?

No. It was just us five.

And after I buried the others,
it was...

it was just me... alone.

Got you.

Okay.

Well, um...

...give me a call if you can
think of anything else.

Or if you just want
to talk to...

...you know,
someone who gets it.

Okay, I don't want to say
that we're going in circles, but

I've now seen that family
of squirrels twice,

and I think they're starting
to talk about us.

Hey, we're not lost, okay?
I know exactly where we are.

I'm just not sure
exactly where we're going.

Give me the notes, let me help.

All right, let's see.
It's, uh...

"Head west at the stand of trees
that look like Mount Rushmore."

None of these trees
look remotely presidential.

I think we turn over there.

How could you possibly
know that?

I have a feeling.

This isn't Vegas.
You can't just go on a hunch.

These are directions.

There is a right
and a wrong answer.

All right, well,
we tried it your way,

right, with maps
and protein bars.

Let's, uh, give
my internal TPS a try.

Fine.

But we're not making Torres
Positioning System a thing.

Uh, Jess?

You're gonna want to see this.

If you already found
Lee's shelter,

I'm going to seriously question
my life choices.

Just come!

Storm must have uncovered him.

Yeah, and look
at the right foot.

Looks like
my instincts were right.

I guess I should go to Vegas.

Hey, any luck with those photos

- from Nick and Jess?
- Facial rec is good.

Not that good. Thankfully,
we still have the foot

from the plane debris.

DNA was a dead end,
but I just found this.

A metatarsal fracture
from childhood.

Oh. Surgical plates usually
have serial numbers on 'em.

If the doctor logged it,
there should be a patient ID.

I'll run it now.

Oh. Baseball team
has enough players this week.

- No fill-ins are needed.
- Oh.

Maybe you can still invite Mateo
to watch.

Uh, yeah, Jimmy told me.

Sorry. That man loves
a good bonding moment.

I just thought, you know,

maybe baseball would be
my way in with Mateo.

- That was not a bad instinct.
- Except I'm striking out.

Yeah, well, Field of Dreams
might have been a stretch.

Sometimes it's best
to just show up as yourself.

- I do genuinely enjoy baseball.
- Mm-hmm.

And I can think of some things
that you like more.

Maybe start with those.

Ooh.

Got a hit on the surgical plate.

Patient was a kid named
Cyrus Fox.

Looks like that kid grew up to
be an international arms dealer.

Sells to the Russian mob,

- cartels.
- Yeah, so he was playing
in the big leagues.

Which explains why someone would
want to sabotage the plane.

Yeah, but not how he got
on board in the first place.

Oh, right, 'cause they were
delivering aid, not weapons.

Global Wings had to know
that he was on that manifest.

I will dig
into the company records

that their lawyer sent over.

- Right. I'm gonna loop in
the rest of the team.
- Okay.

Wait. McGee got a fox?

Sorry, McGee.
Can you repeat that?

Why does this satellite phone
have crappier reception

than my actual cell?

Okay, well,
the Rangers can help us

get this body out of here.

Let's get back to the helicopter
before it gets too dark.

No, no. I think
we should spend a little longer

looking
for the lieutenant's shelter.

I think my TPS is feeling
like it's close.

Okay, stop trying
to make "TPS" happen.

Okay, well, it led us
to this dude's body.

Uh, no, my navigation led us
to this dude's body.

- Okay? You just happened
to see him first.
- One more hour.

One more hour.
We'll shoot for it.

Come on. Here we go.

Rock, paper, scissors.

- Shoot.
- Aha.

Rock, paper, scissors...

- Whoa!
- Oh!

- Federal agents!
- Hold your fire!

I got no visual.

Okay.
Shots coming from the ridge.

Hundred yards away.

Same muzzle fire.
I think it's a single shooter.

All right, I got your six. Move.

We can't keep returning fire.
Running low on ammo.

We need to get out
of his line of sight.

The hill. I'll cover you. Go.

You hit?

I twisted my ankle.
I'll be fine.

All right.
We're too exposed here.

There.

You have another magazine?

- I'm out of ammo.
- Just one.

Okay, well, I don't think
Rambo saw where we went.

- Stay put for a while?
- Yeah.

What is it?

Lieutenant Lee's shelter.

- I knew we were close.
- Okay.

Don't celebrate just yet.

With the shooter still outside,

looks like we're gonna be
stuck here for a while.

All right, no sign
of our trigger-happy friend.

But he can still
be out there.

You think
the shooter had anything

to do with the plane crash?

- Well, can't be a coincidence.
- Yeah.

He did open fire as soon
as we found the dead body.

Ah.

Maybe this will get us
some answers.

Is that the lieutenant's
camera?

Yeah. Hopefully, she got footage

of the plane crash
and of the dead passenger.

Looks like the battery's dead.

What?

The SD card is gone.

- We hiked miles for nothing?
- Well, it wasn't nothing.

- We got the body.
- Which we can't get to
right now.

Is there anything
in that Mary Poppins

- bag of yours that'll help us
get out of here?
- Oh.

Now you're interested
in what I brought?

What about your instincts?

Well, they're a little fried
right now.

- Maybe you should have a snack.
- I'm not hangry!

Okay? If I seem annoying,
it's because we've been shot at,

and now we're stuck here.

Okay, well, let's just worry
about getting un-stuck,

and maybe
we can just outrun him.

Oh, Jess.

No, it's fine, Nick. I just...

No, Jess. Come on.
Have a seat, have a seat.

You're not going anywhere
tonight.

The helicopter is waiting.

Well, and when we don't show up,

they're gonna send
a search party in the morning.

Let's get that ankle elevated.

Come on.

The lieutenant survived here
for six months.

How hard can one night be?

Any ETA

- on Knight and Torres?
- No.

- Reception's been spotty.
- We need to talk

to the lieutenant.

She had to know
Fox was out there.

You think she knows he survived?

Fox lost a foot in the crash,

yet he was buried miles away

in the same area
as the lieutenant's shelter.

She knows more
than she's saying.

I left her a voicemail earlier.

Where is she?

- Michael, what's-what's wrong?
- Rebecca.

- She's not at the hotel,
and her phone's turned off.
- All right.

All right.
Maybe she's getting dinner.

I-I was bringing her dinner.

The hotel room
was totally cleared out.

I was hoping
that you brought her in?

- She's not here.
- Rebecca can't be
on her own right now.

She's traumatized.

All right, we'll put out a BOLO.

If you make a statement
with our agent here,

he'll, uh...
he'll take care of you, okay?

She lied to us and then ran.

Well, what if she's just
overwhelmed or scared?

I'd be scared, too,
if I'd been in those woods

with Cyrus Fox.

I think I figured out
why Fox was on that plane,

and it wasn't because
he was a Good Samaritan.

I dug through those documents
Global Wings sent over.

Turns out the company is owned
by a shell corporation.

Well, it's suspicious,
but not a smoking gun.

Which is why I dug into
the plane's flight schedule.

Smoke, meet gun.

That plane delivered aid

to dozens of crisis zones
last year.

Guess who does business
in each one?

Our fantastic Mr. Fox.

Fox was using
that Global Wings plane

as his own personal Uber.

That explains
why the lawyer was reluctant

to hand over their files.

Oh.

Knight and Torres
never rendezvoused

with the helicopter.

Maybe they got distracted

by the beauty of the Appalachia?

Their satellite phone's
last ping

was at the burial site
about two hours ago.

All right,
I'll alert the Rangers.

Just got
to get the blood moving.

Okay, I would love

to watch you work out
for the rest of the night,

but will you please just get...
get over here?

I'm freezing. So are you.
Look at your fingers.

Yeah, well, my fingers
are always a little blue.

Blanket, now.
Don't make it awkward.

Okay, but this is for...

for survival.

I'm letting you know
that I'm the big spoon.

Oh, no. Okay, you see?

No. I'm the big spoon.

Shoot for it.

Rock, paper, scissors. Shoot.

Oh!

Little spoon, come to Mama.

And spare me the machismo.

No, it's not machismo, okay?
It's pure biology.

I'm, like, quite
literally bigger than you, so...

Can you please
stop breathing on me?

Where else am I supposed
to breathe?

Um, everywhere else but on me.

Okay, can you stop
wiggling so much?

Well, can you stop digging
your elbow into my ribs?

I...

It's hard to believe, no?

That the lieutenant
would survive out here

without any heat
or food or medicine?

Hmm.

I can't believe
she didn't, uh...

she didn't give up.

Maybe she found something
to live for.

I think
he's trying to flush us out.

No way that's happening.

Not when we only have one mag
and bear mace.

You brought bear mace?

Okay, I get it.
I'm Miss Overprepared.

No, no, I'm...

I'm sorry I'm giving you
a hard time, okay?

Honestly, seeing you
be prepared for anything--

it's...

it's amazing.

Thanks.

And I will admit
that your instincts...

...are annoyingly good.

- I know, right?
- Ugh.

I'm still not calling it TPS, okay?

Okay. That's fair. That's fair.

Look, there's nothing
we can do about this shooter

until tomorrow morning.

Yeah.

If we survive till then.

All we have to do is stay warm.

I hope you know
I charge by the hour.

How long have you worked
for Cyrus Fox?

- Who?
- International arms dealer.

He's been using
Global Wings Relief

as his personal taxi service.

And you think
I'm on his payroll?

Global Wings is owned
by an untraceable shell company

that you helped set up.

My employers value
their privacy.

Unless you have
actual evidence...

How do you call yourself
a lawyer if

you've never passed the bar?

Excuse me?

I called your former employers

and the American Bar
Association.

And neither of them have ever
heard of a Grant Lancaster.

Now, you may not be real, but
the charges you're facing are.

And you're gonna spend decades
in a federal prison

unless you start talking
right now.

I am a real lawyer.

For the CIA.

Name's Grant Lumpkin,
not Lancaster.

Lumpkin?

Can see why you wanted
to change that.

- Seriously?
- Honestly, I-I should've known.

Your background team
is terrible.

We didn't have time
to make it airtight.

We needed boots on the ground
as soon as our plane was found.

Your plane?
CIA owns Global Wings Relief?

It allows us
to move in and out of areas

we'd rather not be seen in.

Why was Fox on that plane?
Was he cutting a deal?

A deal a year in the making.

He was about to hand us
his entire buyers list.

But someone found out he was
on that plane and leaked it.

So his enemies
sabotaged the plane?

Now Fox is dead,
and so is the deal.

- Who was the leak?
- No idea.

Fox had enemies everywhere.

I cleared my people
and moved on.

Well, we've got five bodies

and a Navy lieutenant
who lost months

of her life in those woods.

So forgive me
if I don't move on so easily.

You want to try
to find that needle?

The haystack is all yours.

I wouldn't.

NCIS. Stand up.

Why are you hunting us?

We can do this here,

or we can do this
at the Ranger station,

where we're gonna charge you

with killing that guy
in the woods.

Whoa, whoa.
I didn't kill anyone.

You were certainly trying
to kill us.

I was trying to scare you away.

Look, this guy paid me
to come out here,

find this cave,

and destroy some footage in it.
That's all.

You were sent
on a wild-goose chase.

Just like us.

Max Kendrick, tracker for hire.

An impressive
wilderness résumé--

poaching, smuggling.

Yeah, don't forget
illegal firearms.

- Which he shot at us repeatedly.
- Well, at least

you had the lieutenant's shelter
to hide out in.

Must've made an easier night
of it.

Had to be freezing up there.

Kendrick said that

he was hired to destroy
the lieutenant's footage.

- Any idea who paid him?
- The job was arranged online.

Kasie is tracing
the payment now.

Whatever is
on that missing footage

must be pretty incriminating.

Or the lieutenant
knew where it went.

Could be why she ran.

She ran because
she's a murderer.

Cyrus Fox only survived
that plane crash

because somebody cauterized
his severed foot.

- The lieutenant saved his life.
- Yes... and no. I determined

that Cyrus Fox died
two weeks ago.

Cause of death?
Single gunshot to the head.

Kasie matched the bullet
to the gun that

the lieutenant took
from the plane.

If they spent all that time
together, why-why kill him

just before they were rescued?

We can ask her ourselves.

Lee was just picked up
at a train station.

We went looking
for your footage.

We found a grave instead.

That's Cyrus Fox.

We found out that you filmed

a Navy PSA about
his organization years ago.

I... I didn't know
he was out there.

Only reason
he survived the crash

was 'cause you cauterized
his leg.

And your shelter was definitely
big enough for two people.

You saved his life...

just to take it from him
months later.

That's not what it looks like.

It looks like you murdered him.

Surviving

is easier with two people.

Maybe you kept him alive

until you were able
to fix the radio.

Then once you could call
for help, and didn't need him

anymore... bang.

I didn't kill Cyrus.

I loved him.

I know.
I know what it sounds like.

Okay? But Cyrus was a good man.

Yes, I saved his life...

...but he saved mine many times.

Infections, food poisoning.

I wanted to give up.
He wouldn't let me.

He gave you hope.

Cyrus wanted to change.

He made a deal with the CIA.

He wanted to help
even if it cost him his life.

It did cost him his life.

He ended up
with a bullet in his head.

Cyrus got sick.

Bedridden, actually.

I could barely leave his side.

We fixed the radio,

but the battery was dying,

and we needed to get
to higher ground for a signal.

And he couldn't make the climb.

He begged me to go...

...but I cou...

I couldn't just leave him there,
alone to die.

So he made the choice for us.

I left to get water.

When I came back, he...

He took his own life?

He knew it was the only way
I'd survive.

Why not just tell us the truth?

Cyrus and I were together
for months.

We talked... about everything.

If the people he worked for
ever found out what he told me,

I'd be dead.

That's a hell of a story.

If it's true.

But we don't have any proof.

Just your word.

This is the SD card...

...from my camera.

This is all the proof you need.

By the time you see this,
Rebecca...

...I'll be gone.

But I need you to know...

...the crash is the best thing
to ever happen to me,

because it brought me to you.

Well, I get why the lieutenant
took the footage with her.

Most people don't get a goodbye.

He's still talking.

I'm sorry
for what I'm about to do.

You need to keep going.

This is the only way
to protect our family.

To get you both home.

What-- hold up, Kase.
Pause that.

Did he say "family"?

Lieutenant Lee is pregnant.

Okay, she kept
this video a secret

to protect herself and her child
from the people Fox worked with.

And Fox wanted
to protect them, too,

because right after he makes
his goodbye video,

he goes on to list
all his buyers.

He kept his promise to the CIA.

But this footage
wasn't the target.

In order to make
his goodbye video,

Fox had to record
over some old footage.

Well, that's probably
what they're after.

Mm, and lucky for us,
I just finished restoring it.

I was so worried.

Oh, they-they just have
a few questions

about some footage from Haiti.

The lieutenant said
that you, uh,

used her camera
to shoot some B-roll

at the airport
before her flight.

You caught Cyrus Fox on camera.

The international arms dealer.

Fox was on
the lieutenant's flight.

But then his rival found out,
and sabotaged his plane

to get rid of him.

That's... awful.

Yeah, but you already
knew that, didn't you?

'Cause you're the one
that tipped off his rival.

You also got a, uh,
pretty large deposit

on the same day
the plane crashed.

But then the lieutenant
was rescued

and you knew
we'd find the footage.

It was the only thing
connecting you to the crash.

Proof that you knew
Fox was on that plane.

So, you hired someone
to destroy it.

- I didn't hire anyone.
- Your emails say otherwise.

Rebecca, listen,
I didn't know they were gonna

sabotage the plane.

I swear. I...

I get the feeling
she doesn't believe you.

The CIA has agreed
to bury this entire case.

Yeah. No one will ever know that
Cyrus Fox was on that plane.

And you and your baby
will be safe.

And this...

is all yours.

Hmm. This is all
I have left of Cyrus.

Well...

...almost all.

I never thought
I'd do this alone.

You know?

I don't know
if I'm ready to be a mom.

Everything you did
out there in those woods

to keep yourself
and that baby safe?

That's parenting.

Okay? So, you are already
doing an incredible job.

Thank you.

Good luck.

You're telling me
that you didn't see

a single bird out in the woods?

Well, it wasn't a nature walk.

Yeah, we were a little busy
trying not to freeze to death.

Yeah, why didn't you?

'Cause the guy you arrested

was wearing, like,
full winter gear,

and you guys had on,
what, windbreakers?

How'd you stay warm?

Uh...

- Well...
- We just, you know,

- kept moving.
- Kept moving.

Um...

See you guys later?

"Kept moving"?
What does that mean?

Maybe Torres can fill you in
at the game this weekend.

Uh, you still inviting Mateo?

I'm not really sure.

I like baseball and everything,
but it's not the real me.

No shame
in hanging up the glove.

You can find another way
to connect with Mateo.

One that's more you.

Yeah.

Mateo.

Hey, it's your dad.

Hey, listen, uh, I was
thinking about checking out

my old laser tag spot
this weekend.

Uh, any chance
you'd want to join me?
