Where's the officer of the watch, Chief?

Nature called, ma 'am. If you want, I'll get him.

Not necessary.

Kind of late to be going on liberty, Lieutenant.

I just got off mid -watch.

I didn't figure Mr.

Holbarth would stick you with that, ma 'am.

I mean, he usually reserves midnight to four for sailors needing motivating.

You're on watch, Chief.

Well, I'm single, Lieutenant.

Wouldn't be fair having a married chief stand watch our first weekend in port.

Request permission to leave the ship?

Very well, ma 'am.

How much are they paying you, Chief?

A hundred bucks a watt.

Sorry, Chief.

Must have been all that fresh fruit that we got on board when we docked. It

usually happens to me after a long deployment.

Too much fresh fruit?

Oh, too much booze on Liberty.

Mr. Roberts.

Has Lieutenant Sean gone ashore?

No, sir. Yes, sir.

Well, which is it? She just signed out, Lieutenant.

Where the hell were you, Mr. Roberts?

I was in the head, sir.

Nobody's supposed to leave this ship without the officer of the watch giving

permission, mister. I know, sir, but Anson Roberts was indisposed,

And I was acting officer of the watch, sir.

Permission to leave this ship.

Very well, sir.

Mr. Roberts, I have observed in my 17 years in the Navy that some of her

officers are full of horse pucky.

You get eggs and pancakes on the ship, chief. I don't know why you want to pay

for them in a diner.

Mr. Roberts, if you have to ask that after six months at sea, I can't explain

to you.

Isn't that Lieutenant Schott?

Oh, my God.

Mr. Roberts, don't touch anything.

Following in his father's footsteps as a naval aviator, Lieutenant Commander

Harmon Rabb, Jr. suffered a crash while landing his Tomcat on a storm -tossed

carrier at sea.

Diagnosed with night blindness, Harm transferred to the Navy's Judge Advocate

General Corps, which investigates, defends, and prosecutes the law of the

There, with fellow JAG lawyer Major Sarah McKenzie, he now fights in and out

the courtroom with the same daring and tenacity.

that made him a top gun in the air.

Dear Harm, Two weeks out in heavy seas and I'm not the least bit seasick.

But my bunkmates?

Lieutenant Sarah Williams is begging me to put her out of her misery.

I guess all those sailors in my jean pool is the difference.

And don't you dare make a pun out of that.

Buona sera.

I'm writing this by moonlight.

In the trattoria below, a violin is playing Vivaldi.

It's so romantic I could die.

Why am I on Liberty and Capri with Sarah instead of a tall, dark, handsome

Italian?

You forgot?

Lieutenant Murphy, Corps Marshal.

Yeah, you were going to fix dinner and we'd lay out the case.

Sorry, Mac. Look, can I have a rain check?

Oh, very funny.

No, seriously, something's come up. I was just leaving. Look, I'll grab my

jacket and walk you to your car.

An old shipmate of mine's in town just for the evening.

Haven't seen him in years.

We're going to get together and...

Have a drink.

No wonder you look like you'd seen a ghost when we first met.

This could be me.

Not really.

Come on, Mac, I gotta get going.

To meet a friend?

Ship me.

With a weapon.

Talk to me, Harm.

You only look like Diane, Mac.

Your personalities are different night and day.

We met at the academy.

After graduation, I went to flight school. She went to crypto.

Pursuing separate careers, we missed more than we connected.

It happens.

Two years ago, she was coming back after six months of knee duty.

We were going to get together for a week in her parents' cabin and me.

Talk about the future.

Our future.

What happened?

She was murdered.

All right, you know the drill.

You will search for a murder weapon. I want everything checked.

Check the bushes, the dumpsters, the trash cans. Check everything.

Get a couple of divers off of that pier. Have them check around the carrier.

That's where I'd have dumped it.

Ah, looky, looky, looky. Jack.

Yes, sir.

Lieutenant Commander Rabb, this is Lieutenant J .G. Austin. I can read

Rabb. Well, I didn't mean to imply that you couldn't, sir. Good thing.

Brian Turkay, NCIS agent aboard the Seahawk.

We're looking forward to working with you, Agent Turkey.

Mr. Kay, that's okay.

I heard about you, Commander.

Jag's hotshot investigator.

Just remember, this murder happened on my turf.

Anything you come up with, I get. And anything you come up with, I get that,

too.

What have you got so far, Agent Turkay?

White female, shot twice in the chest, close range.

Choose the crypto officer on board, Lieutenant Diane Shaw.

Victim was a girlfriend of Commander Rapp's? An Academy classmate.

NCIS is demanding to have him removed from the investigation.

Demanding? Yes, sir.

Specifically, the investigator on board the Seahawk, an Agent Turkey.

Turkey? You're kidding me.

No, sir.

I thought Chick wouldn't lose bad.

He's demanding that Lieutenant Commander Rapp be removed from the investigation,

sir. Nobody pulls a JAG officer off an investigation except me or God, and he

hadn't asked.

Oh, technically, this turkey.

His life in high school must have been hell.

Oh, I'm sure it was, sir.

Anyway, as I was saying, technically, this NCIS agent

has jurisdiction.

Do you have a solution?

Yes, sir.

I take point in the JAG investigation.

Allison, you're a hell of a prosecutor, but you're not a murder investigator.

I would be with Commander Rabbits, my assistant.

I admit it's walking the ethical tightrope, but it would combine his

my judgment, which is free of his emotional entanglement.

Do it.

You have a devious mind, Allison.

Thank you, sir.

Everybody knew Commander Krennic had her sights set on the Admiral's chair.

And you.

Bud said you threw her more red lights than the beltway at rush hour.

Bud has loose lips.

I understand Krennic was quite a temptress.

Well, Mac, I wouldn't get involved with a superior officer any more than you

would.

More coffee?

No, thanks.

So, Commander Krennic took over the investigation?

Blew in that afternoon.

I had very clear she was running the investigation by having me follow a

two steps to the rear.

Even excluded me from interrogating her prime suspect, Lieutenant Lamb.

What'd you, uh, run after?

We were supposed to meet for dinner tonight.

Hard to believe it happened less than 24 hours ago.

You had a dinner date?

Yes. You're here to observe, Lieutenant, not question.

You were saying?

I ran after Diane because I didn't have her short phone number and we hadn't

decided where to meet for dinner.

Did you, uh, catch up to her?

No. Never saw her.

Were you and Lieutenant Shonk lovers?

Just good friends.

Really?

Interesting. How long did you know Lieutenant Shock?

A little over two months.

She joined us late in the deployment.

We placed a crypto officer whose wife was killed in a car crash.

And you were officer of the deck last night, Commander?

That's correct.

That's unusual, isn't it, sir? The exact standing watch?

Well, I suppose so.

But we just docked after six months at sea.

Most of the ship's crew was on leave.

When the skipper called away to Washington, I had to stay on board

decided to stand to watch.

And Lieutenant Shonk was junior officer at the deck?

During the mid -watch, yes.

And Lieutenant Lamb?

He was communications officer during the mid -watch.

Commander Hallbarth, where did those officers stand their watches?

Lieutenant Lamb in the comm room.

Lieutenant Shonk was right here on the bridge.

In port, watches are usually stood on the quarterdeck, but...

Since it was our first night in dock, I decided to stand it here.

So Lieutenant Shonk was here with you, sir?

Yes, the junior officer of the deck is the officer of the deck's assistant.

Gave you four hours to chat.

About the ship, Commander.

We may be tied to a dock, but there were dozens of situations which required my

attention.

There was little time for chit -chat.

Did you notice anything odd in her behavior, sir?

She seemed anxious to get the watch over and get ashore, but everyone did.

Was anybody unusually interested in her?

Yet.

Who? I don't know.

Oh, come on, Lieutenant.

Diane told me she felt someone was always watching her.

Stalking her?

Well, of course someone was always watching her.

There were 5 ,000 men on this ship, and she was a beautiful woman.

You think she was being paranoid?

No.

And why is that, Lieutenant?

Because she was murdered.

Was Lam lying about Diane being stalked? He lied about having a date with her

that Saturday.

She was on her way to spend the week with me.

Did you confront him with that?

No. The clinic didn't want me to tip him off.

She wanted to gather more evidence first.

You had to build her case. It's what you'd normally do.

But you didn't want to take him to trial, did you?

You wanted to kill him.

Did you love her that much?

I didn't realize how much until she was gone.

It's always a way, isn't it?

Not always.

I don't know what's worse, killing for someone you love or dying for them.

Mac, I didn't mean to open that wound.

Do you hold it against me for looking like Diane?

Of course not.

And don't apologize for saying something that reminded me of Dolph.

Did Agent Turkay think Lieutenant Lamb did it?

I don't know what he was thinking.

He seemed more interested in getting rid of me than solving the murder.

Sorry I'm late. I was going over to leave the Liberty rosters.

Lieutenant Commander Rapp.

Harm?

Sorry, sir.

I'm Sarah Williams.

Diane's bunkmate.

I wasn't informed they'd found you.

If you're done consoling the lieutenant, I have some

questions.

Sorry, sir.

I didn't know how close they were.

Nothing to apologize for, Sarah.

How close were they, lieutenant?

She spoke of harm.

Commander Rapp often.

They've been friends since the academy.

Did she have any other friends?

You mean was she involved in a romantic relationship?

Yes.

If only for a night.

None that I knew of.

Was she gay?

No.

Diane was not gay.

But if she were, wouldn't that constitute a romantic relationship?

How do you explain a...

Sexually attractive young female at sea with thousands of men having no

romantic contacts.

It's against Navy regs, although she did get hit on a lot.

By who?

Lieutenant Lamb.

He's one of those officers that doesn't get the word no matter how many times

the Navy puts it out.

You have no idea how difficult it is escorting a civilian on a tour of a

deck during flight ops.

That's flight operations.

Got it.

Everyone's wearing helmets and earplugs.

The only way that you can communicate is by using hand signals.

So I came up with, like, this little system, right, where it's sort of like

symbols on the road signs where the first time you see them, you understand

them. Like, uh... Follow me.

Uh -huh. Or, uh... Watch your step. Right.

Or... Look right.

Look left.

Stop. Try this one.

Mark your territory.

No, sir. No.

Shake a leg and hurry up.

Yes, ma 'am.

Would you excuse us, Mr. Roberts?

Did I do something wrong, sir? No, I'd just like to speak to the lieutenant

privately. Oh, sorry. Yes, sir. I'm on my way.

What's up?

Lamb was harassing Diane. She complained to Commander Halbarth. Why didn't the

commander say anything when you questioned him? That's what Krennic's

find out.

I knew something wasn't right when Lamb said Shock told him that she was being

stalked. Because he was the stalker.

He left the ship, you know.

What? He went ashore to grab some lunch. He'll be back at 1400 to stand his

watch. Harm, don't do it.

He made me flee. If he is, we'll get a warrant.

Why didn't you tell us Lieutenant Shonk complained of being harassed by

Lieutenant Lamb?

It wasn't a formal complaint.

You didn't report it.

No. Commander, it's a violation of Navy regs for a superior officer to ignore

reports of sexual harassment, formal or informal.

I know, I know.

But Lieutenant Shonk emphasized that Lieutenant Lamb hadn't overtly harassed

her. She said that it was borderline and she wanted me to talk to him before she

had to make it official.

This could end my career, couldn't it?

It isn't going to help it.

You should have protected yourself, Commander.

Lieutenant Lamb was a good officer.

He didn't want anything official marring his record.

Did you follow up with Lieutenant Shock?

Yeah, several days later.

She said he stopped speaking to her except as necessary in the performance

their duties.

Started stalking her instead.

What? Lieutenant Lamb and Williams claimed the victim said someone was

her.

No, no, no, no.

She never reported that to me.

I'd have acted on it if she did.

And why would she tell Lieutenant Lamb?

Probably didn't want to ruin his career either.

It was her way of warning him to stop stalking her.

Being nice may have cost her her life.

Then I explained it to him and he still didn't get it.

What can I get for you, Commander?

Just coffee.

May I help you, sir?

You're one of the JAG officers investigating the murder, aren't you?

She didn't deserve to die like that.

She didn't deserve to die at all.

No.

Of course not.

That was a stupid thing for me to say.

Damn stupid.

Well, if you'll excuse me, sir, I have a watch to set. Sit down, Lieutenant.

Why did you run after Diane at four in the morning?

It's in my statement.

I didn't think she'd leave the ship so soon after going off mid -watch.

We had had a date for Saturday night, and I didn't have a sure phone.

What a coincidence. Diane and I had a date on Saturday night.

You knew her?

How could you have a date with her when I did, Mr. Lamb?

I didn't. I was hoping to get one.

So you lied in your statement.

I didn't kill her. You stalked her.

That wasn't me. I was the one who told the inquiry she was being stalked. You

were the one who told the inquiry you had a date with her, too.

It was somebody else, I swear.

You sexually harassed her, didn't you? I may have told a few off -color jokes,

but I... And when she reported you to the XO... What? You started stalking

No! You lying son of a bitch!

He killed Diane!

If he did, this isn't going to prove it, sir.

This is just going to get you court -martialed. Consider yourself restricted

the ship, Lieutenant.

Escort him back on board, Chief.

Aye, sir. And then report my assault to the XO.

What assault, sir?

I didn't kill Diane, but I can understand how someone in love with her

You went into that diner thinking Lieutenant Lamb killed Diane.

But after you confronted him, you weren't so sure, were you?

I still suspected him.

But you're beginning to have doubts.

Reasonable doubts.

Maybe.

But when you didn't go into that diner with a weapon, you could have killed an

innocent man.

I didn't say Lieutenant Lamb was innocent. I said I had doubts.

Give me the weapon, Mac.

It's probably not your only weapon anyway.

What happened next?

I gotta go.

Oh, come on, Harm. You owe me the rest of the story.

Why? Because.

Because it's never been a valid reason for anything, Mac. You don't tell a joke

and not deliver the punchline. Oh, I'm not telling a joke.

Now you want me to lock you in or out?

Well, then tell me, because I'm your partner.

That's what I'm not going to tell you, Mac.

Harm, I don't want to see you take a life and throw away yours.

You don't know what I'm going to do.

I don't know what I'm going to do.

What happened after you slugged Lieutenant Lamb?

Critics coming on to me. It wasn't about sex. It was about... power.

I was the hot hand in Jack and represented a potential rival.

So she tried to use sex to control you. Very masculine approach.

Well, that's a very feminine assumption.

And the credit card I

slugged lamb. It was the perfect excuse she needed to get rid of.

I guess the word's out.

Did you think slugging a junior officer in a crowded hash house would go

unnoticed? It'll headline the next issue of the Navy Times.

JAG officer assault suspect in carrier murder.

Mr. K charging Lamb?

He didn't have the evidence to warrant it.

He harassed her, he stalked her, and he chased after her the night she was

murdered. The victim told Commander Holbrook that she thought Lieutenant

might harass her.

Lieutenant Williams said the victim didn't know who was... Stop calling her

victim. Watch it, Commander.

If I were you, I'd toughen my hide.

Otherwise, you're going to look like a fool.

No smoking.

Stop it.

You'll have to stand Captain's mast.

And he said he wasn't going to file a complaint.

He isn't.

I am.

Dammit, Control.

I need to disassociate myself from you.

Captain's math could end my career better here than mine.

He meant that.

I'm not going to throw away my career because you're pining over your

sweetheart.

You're jealous.

Of a dead woman?

I don't think so.

Besides, you've made it perfectly clear that we have no personal future.

Allison, don't do this.

If I don't report you, Agent Turkey will make sure that the Seahawk skipper does

when he returns on Monday.

That'll give me 36 hours to find who killed Diane.

You'll need a confession.

I'll get it.

Just don't beat it out of him.

I can't believe you've been hunting a killer for two years and I knew nothing

about it.

You never kept a secret from me?

Did Commander Krennic put you on report?

I was the least that Krennic's worried.

What happened?

She was being stalked by Diane's killer.

Hello?

Hello, is somebody there?

You okay, ma 'am? No, somebody's after me.

I didn't find anyone, ma 'am. Well, he was there just a second ago.

I can have the area swept, ma 'am. But if someone was down there, he's gone by

now. What do you mean, if?

Somebody was after me.

Yes, ma 'am. If you say so, ma 'am.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to frighten you.

Not your fault, sir.

I'm a little edgy.

Edward!

Sorry, sir, ma 'am.

What's going on, Gunnery Sergeant?

Someone was talking to Commander Krennic, sir. She believes it was

Lamb, and he hasn't been seen since reporting back to the ship, sir. Did you

check his quarters?

On my way there now, sir.

Lieutenant

Lamb

committed suicide?

That's what Commander Krennic and Agent Turcay concluded in their report.

The investigating board concurred.

Hard not to when you have a suicide note admitting to sexual harassment,

stalking, and murder.

But you didn't buy it.

Lamb didn't commit suicide, Meg.

He was murdered by Diane's killer.

Whom you intend to kill.

Farm, wait!

Make your case. Mac!

Come on, hotshot, make your case.

If you are so damn sure that Commander Krennic and Agent Turkay were wrong,

prove it. I can't prove it in a court of law.

Do you see a judge or jury in here?

Prove it to me.

If I tell you, you'll be an accessory.

I'm already an accessory. I'm obligated to report that you intend to kill

someone.

Speculation, Kim.

Now, you think the Admiral will buy that if we pull the trigger tonight?

How do you know that Lieutenant Lamb didn't commit suicide?

The suicide note was written on a computer. The keys were smudged. There

fingerprints. The killer wrote the note. Lamb could have written it and then

smudged the keys as he typed.

He was killed with a Navy -issued 9mm Beretta. Diane was killed with a .38,

which was never found.

Lamb could have owned a .38 and tossed it after the murder.

Lamb was left -handed, Mac.

You don't shoot yourself with your right hand if you're left -handed.

Did Krennic and Turkay know that?

It wasn't in their report.

When did you find out?

Last week, when I checked the case file.

It was in Lamb's service record.

How could all three of you miss that?

I guess we were too preoccupied with each other.

What the hell are you doing in my quarters?

I, uh, wanted to return those letters to you.

Privately.

Hope you don't mind I used your head. I mind.

Where'd you get these?

Sean's lockbox.

Either you're a very prolific writer, or she saved every single letter you ever

sent to her.

You read them?

Part of the job, Rob.

Oh, yeah, the good part.

Hey, look.

I shouldn't even be turning those over to you.

Technically, they belong to her next of kin.

Then why are you?

Because we met like a couple of junkyard dogs in a pound.

I'd like to think we could part like men.

for what it's worth.

If it was me, I'd have slugged him too.

Why the sudden change of attitude?

Case was closed. He had his murderer.

No point continuing the spitting contest.

Was Agent Turcay the NCIS officer on board the Seahawk?

Took me two years, what just took you an hour to figure out.

So Kay acted as though he'd been assigned the case out of the Norfolk

but he was on the ship the entire cruise.

So he knew Diane.

Bit better than that, Mac.

He murdered her.

I have a letter I found.

It's inadmissible in court.

It's inside. I'll show it to you.

Out of here as fast as I could, Major.

Were you able to find the NCIS personnel file?

Not without a code.

I can get in.

Major, you're tripping on my computer.

You should change into some dry clothes. Harriet's got an extra uniform up in

her locker.

I don't think they'll fit, but... Well, I mean, maybe not this way, but this

way.

I'm so sorry, Major.

It's okay.

This is about the Lieutenant Schampf murder, isn't it?

You served on the Seahawk with her.

Yes, ma 'am. As public affairs officer, I handled all her interviews.

She got a lot of media attention, you know, pretty as she was, and being one

the first women on a warship.

What was she like?

Just look in the mirror, Major.

You never even mentioned it.

Well, you know, he never said anything, but I think the commander just never

wanted me to bring it up.

You just look like her. Your voice is different. She was a lot more fun.

I mean, she wasn't as squared away as you are. I guess it's just one of those

sailor -marine things.

Got him.

He can't be in Seattle.

Well, apparently he is, ma 'am.

Unless he's on an investigation.

I'll get the night number of his superior.

What was Turkay like?

Kind of reminded me of a walrus.

Did you ever see he and Lieutenant Shaw together?

Pardon?

On board during the deployment.

Agent Turkay wasn't on the cruise.

He wasn't the NCIS agent on board?

No, what gave you that idea?

Besides Lieutenant Lamb, who were the other possible suspects?

Ma 'am, I wasn't even in JAG. I just merely escorted the investigators around

the shift.

Eavesdropping on everything they said.

Me, Major?

Bud, I don't have time for this. Harm is on his way to meet someone he believes

murdered Lieutenant Shock.

Who did they suspect?

I'm glad it ended this way.

I couldn't have taken a trial.

I don't even know I'm going to go to the funeral.

I hadn't even thought about the funeral.

Will you go, sir?

Of course.

Well, maybe I'll see you there.

But if I don't, I'm glad to have met someone so close to Diana Hill.

Nice to have met you, Lieutenant.

You too, Lieutenant. Thank you.

She's taking this very hard. Uh -huh.

Any reason why she should?

Well, Lieutenant Austin suspected Williams.

It seemed that way to me.

And she wasn't the only one, too. There's lots of scuttlebutt on the ship

Lieutenant Williams was a homosexual.

And she killed Diane in a jealous lesbian rage.

That is the homophobic cliche, isn't it? Major, you asked me to tell you what I

overheard. I'm just trying to answer you.

You're right, bud. I stand corrected.

Who else was a suspect?

Well, Commander Holbar's career would be over if it got out that he ignored

Lieutenant Shonk's sexual harassment complaints.

In fact, I heard he and Commander Krennic talking about it right after

Lieutenant Lamb's suicide.

Well, I guess you can relax now, Commander Krennic.

Hardly.

Lieutenant Lamb's confession.

Wrap up the investigation.

It shortens the murder inquiry, but I still have to conduct a suicide

investigation.

Isn't that just pro forma?

Nothing in the Navy is pro forma, Commander.

You know that.

I guess so.

If you want to know if Lamb's confession in suicide gets you off the hook for

not reporting a possible sexual harassment among your junior officers...

wasn't what I was asking.

The answer is no.

I was out on the weather deck, but I could tell he was sweating.

Anyone else?

Not that I recall.

Can you locate Williams and Hobart?

Sure, if they're still in the Navy.

The Destroyer Shepard docked at Pier 6 this morning at Norfolk.

What are you going to do, Major?

I don't know. Something.

Shouldn't we call security at Norfolk? If we did that, Harm's career would be

ruined.

Commander? Lieutenant Commander Rapp.

Still standing in the mid -watch, first night in port, huh?

Ah, so Captain Spencer isn't expecting me at the Port Authority, is he?

There is no Captain Spencer.

Well, what can I do for you?

Found this letter written by Lieutenant Shaw.

It was a terrible incident.

Fallout from that caused me a command.

About Diane, her life.

Yeah, of course.

Stupid thing for me to say.

I've been waiting for you to get back in the port so I could deliver this to

you.

This isn't addressed to me.

It's a draft.

She gave the original to you.

She put this in her lockbox.

With letters I'd written.

Agent Turkay returned them to me two years ago.

Well, I didn't find this one until just recently.

Read it, Commander.

Your failure to address my sexual

harassment complaints leaves me no choice but to seek redress through

channels.

I deeply regret having to take such action.

But unless you can convince me otherwise, I will be filing a complaint

dock at Norfolk.

I do this not for myself, for this cruise is nearly over, but for those

officers who will serve under your command in the future.

This was obviously written to Lieutenant Lamb. She didn't serve under Lieutenant

Lamb. She served under you. It's also unsigned.

It's inadmissible in a court, Marshal. That night on the midwalk, she tried to

talk her out of filing the complaint.

When that failed, you told Lieutenant Lamb to try. That's why he ran after

It also set him up with the Paul guy for her murder.

Then you killed him, and you made it look like suicide.

That's preposterous.

You'd be left out of court with a set of assumptions like those.

I know that.

I'm not planning on going to court.

Oh, my God.

Chunk.

No, I... I didn't mean to. I... I'm sorry. I... I didn't mean...

I'll

get help.

Won't do any good. He was crushed between the hull and the dock.

How'd you know I was here?

Bud told me Triquet never served on the Seahawk.

The killer had to be Commander Holbarth or Lieutenant Williams, and I guessed

Holbarth was the ship dog today.

He thought you were Diane's ghost.

I didn't even think about that. I was soaked, and Bud gave me one of Harriet's

uniforms.

Would you have killed him?

You were kissing her.
