All language subtitles for NCIS_ Los Angeles - 11x17 - Watch Over Me.SVA-AVS.English.HI.C.orig.Addic7ed.com

Previously on NCIS: Los Angeles...

The truth is if Anna
doesn't want to be found,

there's really nothing anybody can do.

ANNA: Hi, Callen.

How are you?

- I've been looking for you.
- I know.

We just have to put our heads together.

We can work this out, Anna.

You know they're gonna find out.

It's just until I figure some things out.

The CIA, my criminal record.

I don't want to get anyone into trouble.

- CALLEN: What about me?
- ANNA: Well, you maybe

just a little bit.

An operation was launched into
Sinai Peninsula to take down

a high-value target.
It was a complete ambush.

An NCIS agent was embedded with them.

Somebody we know?

Fatima hasn't been seen since the raid.

ERIC: Hetty wanted boots on the ground

as soon as humanly possible.

We will return
this American spy to safety

for half a million U.S. dollars.

You have 24 hours
to prevent her execution.

- You're getting some company.
- What are you talking about?

- You okay?
- Yeah.

- How did you find me?
- It was a group effort.

Get her out of here.

I owe all of you.

This is DOJ Agent Lance Hamilton.

Wow. I think I like this Lance.

Yeah, he's a good dude.

Sometimes you got to get your ass kicked

to know you still got
some fight left in you.

I can't believe we're still
out here searching for him.

He's a loose cannon,
doesn't follow the playbook.

It makes his movements
completely unpredictable.

I think I know someone like that.

(CHUCKLES)

I know he's down there on that boat.

You don't know that. You think that.

And you thinking you know where
he is doesn't help us right now.

(PHONE VIBRATES)

Damn.

Special Agent in Charge Atkins.

He wants me to call in
with an update on Rountree.

What are you gonna tell him?

Should I tell him the truth?

Even though we... the two of us...

were supposed to be Special
Agent Rountree's lifeline

while he's undercover, we lost him.

Can't find him, don't even know
if he's dead or alive.

Yeah, I probably wouldn't tell him that.

Yeah.

Look, I know Rountree's on that boat.

(CHUCKLES)

SAC Atkins. Sir, I've got some bad news.

We still don't have a location

- on Special Agent Rount...
- Yes, sir.

Uh, as far as we know,
Special Agent Rountree is still

successfully undercover and...

(SIGHS)

Screw this.

(CREAKING)

Atkins is pissed about Rountree.

He blames us and wants...

Calvillo?

Damn.

(GUNSHOTS)

Whoa. You're here early.

Yeah. I just wanted
to look into something

- before everyone got here.
- Hmm.

Just... something, huh?

Yeah.

Hey, is Anna still in L.A.?

I don't know.

Hmm.

She went back to work
with Joelle, so, uh...

who knows.

Well, would you like
some help finding her?

(CHUCKLES)

No.

If she left, then
she doesn't want to be found.

All righty. Well, here I go, up to Ops.

Nell.

Yes?

Thank you for offering to help.

Don't mention it.

It's kind of what we do.

(THUMPING)

One, two. One, two, three.

One, two, three, four.

Ah.

One, two.

One, two.

One, two, three.

Hey, guys, guys. Whoa, hey.
How's it going?

Um, do you think I could try?

Yeah, just get some gloves
out of the locker.

Oh, no, I-I meant, like, you know,

wearing those things
and-and counting for you?

Hey, these are mitts.

I'm not counting, I'm calling punches.

Well, kind of sounds to me
like you're counting,

Agent Sutherland, and, uh, I am

pretty good at numbers. (CHUCKLES)

Counting to four won't
really be an issue.

Yeah, yeah,

it's cool, it's cool. Yes. (CHUCKLES)

Thanks, Sutherland.

- Awesome.
- Catch you later.

Thank you. Um...

All right. Whoa. (CHUCKLES)

- They're like big mittens.
- Yeah.

Oh, my God, that's why they're
called mitts. Duh. Ow. Okay.

(CLEARS THROAT) Okay.

Here we go. Ready?

Ready?

- You ready?
- Yeah, I'm ready. Let's do it.

- Okay. Here we go.
- Okay.

Eric, call the punches, man.

Oh. No, no, no, no, no.

You punch, I just count them,

like you were doing
with Agent Sutherland.

Okay, all right, all right,
all right. Ready?

- Yeah.
- One. Whoa. Wow. Okay.

All right, one.

One, two. One, two.

- One, two.
- (PHONE DINGS)

Oh. Oh!

Hey. Come on.

We got a case. Rain check?

(CHUCKLES) Hey.

Who knew I was so good at boxing, huh?

Yeah, who would've thought?

- It's like patty-cakes.
- No, it's not.

Like patty-cakes for adults.

Not even a little.

- Mm...
- (PHONE RINGS)

- I'll see you up there.
- Yeah.

Aiden, what's up, son?

Really? For how long?

I don't know. Let me figure something out

and I'll call you back, all right?

I got to see what's going on.

All right. Okay, bye.

Hey, did you get
your rounds in on the mitts?

Yeah.

So, Aiden's in town.
Him and a couple of his buddies

are having a little
quick trip passing through.

That's great. You gonna see him
for dinner tonight?

No, he has a quick turnaround

- and has to head back to Annapolis.
- Wh...

- Is he free now?
- Yeah.

So get out of here. I'll cover for you.

- Eh, I'll just...
- Wha... Are you kidding me?

Go see your son. Look, he's in
town, you never get to see him,

if he didn't want to hang out with you,
he wouldn't have called you.

You sure?

Yes. Contrary to your
deeply held beliefs,

we can function here
for a day without you.

Besides,

Fatima's here today.

- Really?
- Yeah. Hetty has asked

the director that she be assigned here

on a permanent change of station.

Oh,
that's great. This is where she belongs.

I agree. Go hang out with Aiden.

Hey, and, uh, tell him I said
I'm proud of him, all right?

(CHUCKLES)

- Be safe.
- Yeah.

Sam has to take care of something today,

so, uh, let's get started.

We're also down a Deeks.
LAPD called him in this morning.

Kensi's on her way in now.

Sounds good. What do we got?

Okay, so, last night,

this woman, FBI Special Agent
Mia Calvillo,

was killed in Marina del Rey.

Now, she and her partner,
Special Agent Randall Cejudo,

are from the Seattle field office.

They were both providing backup
to an undercover special agent.

Special Agent Devin Rountree
is undercover

as a bodyguard for...

Brendan Spitz.

NELL: Now, Spitz is suspected by

the Department of Justice to be
running a high-end business

specializing in moving people
into and out of the country

who can't do so legally.

ERIC: Now,
the FBI has not had a location on Spitz

for a week. They suspect either
him or one of his associates

is responsible
for Agent Calvillo's murder.

NELL: Their theory is

Spitz learned Agent Calvillo was

investigating him and he had her killed.

And what about Rountree...
has his cover been blown?

NELL: That we don't know.
Although he hasn't made

his mandatory FBI check-ins
for the past three days.

ERIC: Now, we pulled the
case because of our interest in

- Ryan Usman.
- FATIMA: Usman.

We suspected him for being a top
recruiter for Al-Shabaab in L.A.

ERIC: Right. Now, FBI intel shows us

that Usman is a client of Spitz.

Now, they believe Spitz is moving people

into and out of the country
for Al-Shabaab.

The idea is we find Ryan Usman,
he points us to Spitz.

Are we still in contact with
Calvillo's partner?

ERIC: We are.

Huh. Looks like
Department of Justice is taking

an active interest in this case.

DOJ Special Agent Lance Hamilton
will be joining us.

Great. All right, Nell,

have Kensi and Lance go to the boatshed.

They can meet with Cejudo.

Fatima and I will head
to the crime scene.

- Copy that.
- Also, make sure

we coordinate all
this today with the FBI.

Of course.

- Got it.
- Yup.

Nice ride. It suits you.

Well, thank you.

Guy at the rental counter tried
to put me in a Mini Cooper.

- We almost went to blows.
- (CHUCKLES)

I'm not surprised. It's good to see you.

- Good to see you, too.
- Hi.

I hear we're Deeks-less today.

- He at LAPD?
- Yeah.

They were working some case
that pointed at a drug dealer

that he arrested in the past,

so they called for him.

I'm sorry I missed him.

But thanks for helping out.

DOJ is all over this case,
as you can imagine.

Of course. Yeah.

Sorry,
is that a teal yoga mat in your truck?

Yes, it is, and I do it every day.

Seriously? That's awesome.

You know, I got to get back to it.

I run every day, and it's like,
my t-bands, my soleus...

I do it for anger management.

- Oh, you're serious.
- Yes.

- (HORN HONKS)
- Okay.

Well...

looks like Special Agent Cejudo is here.

Yes, he is.

Just spoke with the harbormaster.

This boat's been vacant for a while.

Owner did a renovation and
then skipped off to Hawaii.

No one's seen him since.

Well, someone's been living here.

There's a bunch of empty water bottles,

bags of fast food.

Yeah, I don't think you can
consider what's in those bags food.

Says Miss Beverly Hills.

A lot of people like fast food.

I happen to like fast food.

I don't think it's a
Beverly Hills kind of thing.

It's more of, like,
a health kind of thing.

I mean, do you know the risks...

Yeah, well, I guess I'm just
living in the danger zone.

Come here.

Two bullet holes in this jacket.

Calvillo must have shot at it.

Stand over there.

Yeah, it kind of looks like
a man's shape right now.

At night, backlit.

It's pretty spot-on.

Then the shooter takes her out,

- using that cabinet for cover.
- Mm-hmm.

Shell casings could have
ejected over the side,

into the water.

You know what this looks like?

Agent Calvillo walked into a trap.

Yeah, I appreciate it.

Of course. We're gonna find out
who killed your partner.

I knew she wanted to
check out that boat...

No. You can't blame yourself.

She went out on that dock alone.

It was her own choice.

She was convinced
Agent Rountree was on that boat.

How long had you been looking for him?

He'd missed his last
three days of check-ins.

That wasn't his M.O. at all.

We got to find him.

What was his experience
going long-term undercover?

None. This was his first assignment.

(SIGHS)

Maybe if Calvillo and I
would have asked our SAC

to pull the plug
on the operation when she...

Don't play that what-if game, man.
I've been there.

Turns your mind real dark real fast.

ERIC: All right, camera 209

is on the shooter's back
as he exits the boat,

but you can't see his face.

Then camera 106 has him in profile, but

his hoodie blocks his face again.

So nothing at the exit
of the docks or the parking lot.

Anything on foot
or getting into a vehicle?

I'm trying to access

traffic cams across the street.

Hopefully they picked up
something in the distance.

Hmm. So if the shooter
didn't go from the docks

to the parking lot,

then where did he go?

I'm even checking harbor entrance cams.

No boats left at that time,
so he didn't go out to sea.

Yeah.

Any luck finding Brendan Spitz?

Well, I'm running Kaleidoscope,

looking through his financials,
FBI reports, but to be honest,

there is not much info on this guy.

It's really no wonder the only option

for the DOJ was to put Agent
Rountree undercover with Spitz.

Rountree's out there somewhere.

He's scared, alone, his
backup agent just got killed.

Eric, I'm so sorry.
Working this case must take you

right back to your kidnapping
in San Francisco.

No. Rountree's got it worse.

I knew if I just held on,

you, Callen, Sam,
the whole team would be there for me.

Mm.

This guy has no idea
if anyone's coming for him.

Well, unless our shooter swam out of here

he had to come up on this dock

so he could get to the street
and the parking lot.

Surveillance videos didn't get anyone

on the dock or in the water.

Maybe the south dock?

Hey... you all right?

Yeah.

I mean...

I'm good.

That was a tough situation you were in,

so if you want or if you need

any time off, just let me know.

Thank you.

But being out here with the team,

getting some fresh air, staying busy,

I think that's best for me right now.

Good.

What if...

he jumped from boat to boat

to avoid being seen by that camera?

Yeah, maybe. If he did that,

then he could end up on the other dock.

Let's check it out.

CEJUDO: Yes, sir.

If NCIS locates Ryan Usman,
we'll move on him immediately,

- but, sir, you find Spitz
- (PHONE VIBRATES)

I'd like to be there to bring him in.

Understood.

No location on Spitz yet.

Usman is still our best bet to find him.

NCIS Intel suspects that he

may have flown to Paris,
then back to L.A.

last week under false papers.

So if he was Spitz's client,
they've had contact recently.

We find Usman, we apply leverage,

get him to tell us
where Brendan Spitz is.

Yup.

- So anyone ride this bad boy?
- (CHUCKLES)

Uh, actually, my teammate Sam

takes it out spearfishing some nights.

Middle of the ocean, at night, alone?

Mm-hmm.

Definitely not my jam.

- (CHUCKLES)
- Not mine either.

I'm more of a quad, good boots,

elk hunting kind of guy myself.
(CLICKS TONGUE)

Uh, I don't want to piss you off,

but that sounds awful, too.

I don't get pissed off. I do yoga.

He does yoga.

Hey, Kens.

Hey, Nell. What's up?

We just got a hit on two SUVs
tied to a corporation

- Ryan Usman has interests in.
- Where'd they go?

They're in the West L.A. area.

They haven't landed anywhere yet.

All right, thanks. Let's go, guys.

Yeah.

Hey. Check that out.

Old camera, even older boat.

- Yeah, but from that angle,
- (MUSIC PLAYING IN DISTANCE)

camera may have been able
to pick up the shooter entering

or exiting the external fence
of the dock area.

- If it even works.
- MAN: Hey. Whoa. Hey, hey, man.

I'm all caught up on rent,
maintenance fees...

Huh? Back off.

We don't work here.
We're with NCIS. We, uh...

Wh-What's your name?

Willy.

Willy what?

It's just Willy.

Okay, Just Willy, uh,

let me ask you, does your camera work?

Yeah, of course it works,

but who did you say you were?

Federal agents.

Look, your camera may have
picked up something that's

relevant to one of our cases.
We're wondering if we can

come inside, take a look
at the footage from last night.

Ooh.

I don't know if I want you on my boat.

I mean, that doesn't
sound like a good idea.

Why doesn't it sound like a good idea?

I'm just not comfortable around the Man.

- No offense.
- Oh, well,

- none taken.
- Okay, I'll tell you what,

why don't you just...
could you e-mail us the footage?

E-mail it?

- Yeah.
- Why would I go through all this trouble

to live off the grid and then
set up an e-mail account with...

- The Man?
- (CHUCKLES): Yeah.

- I get it.
- Yeah, you do get it.

Rad.

All right, you know what? Come
on, I'll show you the video.

- What the hell?
- Great.

Uh, uh, just you.

- Just me?
- Just her?

Yeah, sorry, you look like you could

kind of be a little too much like, uh...

- The Man?
- Yeah.

- (CHUCKLES)
- FATIMA: Well, I'm also

not even a man, so there is that.

Yeah. I always did
have the good instincts.

Mm. Bet you do.

Good times, Willy.

Hey, watch your head.

So you said last night around 11:15 p.m.?

- Yeah.
- Okay...

Whoa. Is this the kind of thing
you're looking for?

Yes. That's it, Willy, that's perfect.

Will you just play it back one more time?

All right, enhancing the image...

Zooming in on a license plate...

- Got it.
- Nice.

Running it through now.

Shooter knew exactly

where to be to avoid
the cameras, until now.

Yeah, he's also got
some crazy jumping skills.

He made it from the dock

up the embankment, onto
the railing and over the gate.

I believe they call that "mad hops."

Oh, yeah? Who does?

The kids, yo.

- Oh. Mm...
- (BEEP)

Ooh, got it.

Great. Uh,

- Callen, Fatima?
- FATIMA (OVER COMMS): What's up, Nell?

So we've located
the shooter's getaway vehicle.

It's a gray Toyota

pickup, it's in San Pedro,

and I've just sent
the address to your GPS.

Got it.

There are the SUVs tied to Ryan Usman.

Does Ops have any evidence
that Usman is in the house?

Uh, no visual proof, but intel
tells us that's where he lives.

There's no telling
how much firepower is in there.

Yeah. We got to get him outside

to avoid a hostage
or barricade situation.

And how do we do that? You got a plan?

Of course I have a plan.

She's always got a plan.

Nell, we got eyes on the shooter's truck.

We're moving in.

Copy that.

The engine's cold.

Truck's been here a while.

FBI thinks Spitz has left L.A.

I'm not following you.

I'm just saying it's an odd place

for the shooter to stop the truck.

If he works for Spitz, he'd be
leaving the city as well,

especially after he killed Calvillo.

And we're not near LAX
or a train station.

Maybe Spitz didn't use
his own guys to kill Calvillo.

The FBI could be wrong.

Spitz may not be behind this murder.

We need to find the guy
who drove this truck here.

Well, we have houses

on both sides of the alley.

Down the hill we've got, well,

restaurants, bars, apartments.

He could be anywhere.

We need to get going.

SAM: So it's an ice
cream shop on Flatbush?

AIDEN: Nah, it's a shoe and
clothing spot, but they sell ice cream.

It's Virgil, Carucci, Nigel Sylvester...

they all got flavors.

- I got to check it out.
- Yeah.

So you spent a lot of time
in Brooklyn with Amanda, huh?

(CHUCKLES) Yeah.

I mean, she's pushing this
clothing brand really hard.

Works a full-time job and
then comes home at night

and works on her own designs.

She's got that drive.

Yeah, she does.

Thinking about putting in
for a station in New York

after you graduate?

Nah.

Was thinking of some place
more like this.

So you're coming back to L.A.?

Nah, nah, nah. Not L.A.

But, uh, but the beach.

Wait.

You heard back already?

(CHUCKLES)

- You heard back?
- Yeah.

- Pensacola?
- Yeah.

(BOTH LAUGH)

Yeah, Dad. I got in.

Pre-flight school for six weeks,
and after that,

22 weeks of flight school somewhere else.

Oh, man. If I knew we were celebrating,

I'd have treated you to a better lunch.

Ah, nah, no way.

They don't have In-N-Out
in Annapolis, and you know

this is always my first
stop when I come home.

You know Callen is never gonna stop

calling you Maverick, right?

(LAUGHS)

You tell Uncle Callen
pre-flight school is about

a million miles away from Top Gun.

Will do.

Your mom...

Your mom would be proud.

Thanks, Dad.

♪ ♪

Hey!

Hey! Your truck's on fire!

Excuse me.

- Yo, what the hell is going on?
- Uh, your...

- Your truck's on fire.
- Yo! The truck!

We walked the alley.

No sign of forced entry

on any of the exterior gates
or in the garages.

ERIC: And I checked the
alarm companies and police logs,

- no reports of break-ins.
- Guys, we're coming up empty

down the hill by the shops
and restaurants.

There is no sign of him.

Got it.

All right, he was on the boat,
he had bottles of water

and fast food.

I thought we agreed that isn't food.

(CHUCKLES) Anyway,

maybe the shooter wasn't hanging
out waiting for Calvillo

to show up so he could kill her.

Maybe he was just hunkered down,
hiding out, and she showed up.

And then it ends in her getting shot?

Exactly.

Then he comes here,
wants to be left alone,

so now he's holed up
and hiding out again.

He'd want to find somewhere with privacy,

like the boat last night.

Hey, Nell,

any houses for sale off this alley?

Uh... yes.

There is one.

3244 Ninth Street. Looks like

it's on the north side of the alley.

And guys, the owners moved out
two weeks ago. It's vacant.

Well, that's got to be it.

(EXHALES) Hey, thanks for calling us.

You guys wouldn't have happened
to see who did this, would you?

Federal agents.

Turn around. Hands up.

Get down!

On your knees. Your heard him.

(GROANS)

Stay where you are.

(GUNSHOTS)

- Moving.
- Got 'em.

What?

I didn't see him. He got the jump on me.

But I got him.

Damn. He was our connection to Spitz.

(SOFT CHUCKLE) I think the key
takeaway is I'm not dead.

Nell, we're all clear.

Usman is dead.

♪ ♪

Federal agents.

Front room clear.

Moving upstairs.

(CLATTERING)

Federal agents!

Callen, he's downstairs.

(GRUNTING)

♪ ♪

Stop!

Federal agents.

Nell, track a tow truck headed

south on Gaffey.

That's Agent Rountree.

Callen, you were right.
Facial rec just verified the guy

you were chasing was, in fact,
Special Agent Devin Rountree.

We've been tracking that tow truck.

I'm afraid we have some bad news.

So, Somewhere between Angels
Gate Park and Point Fermin,

he must have jumped off
the truck and made a run for it.

There's no sign of him anywhere.

Nell, get the Overwatch
program up and running.

I was able to tag him.

You were?

Nice work.

ERIC: Guys, Overwatch program

is loading.

If Agent Rountree killed Calvillo,

he had to have a motive.

Are there any red flags on his record?

NELL: Nothing yet.

I mean, his paychecks go in, he
pays his bills, saves the rest.

No sign of anything out of the ordinary.

No drug use, no gambling,

but I'll keep looking.

It just doesn't add up.

Rountree was undercover
as Spitz's bodyguard,

and yet he hides out
in a boat in the Marina

and stops communicating with the FBI?

And then Calvillo finds him
and he kills her.

Or he laid a trap, lured her in.

Either way, he doesn't
trust the FBI or us.

But Rountree had a gun
and he never shot at us.

He just ran.

Hmm.

All I care about is Brendan Spitz.

If you talk to me, I'll tell
the D.A. that you cooperated.

Are you insane? Asking me about Spitz?

Where is he?

I can't believe Spitz had you kill Usman,

after everything we did for you.

What are you talking about?

Why you playing games, lady?

Usman took care of Spitz,

and he still sends
his dirty cops after us anyway.

You think that I'm working for Spitz?

You telling me
you not bought and paid for?

Does he know where Spitz is?

The Overwatch program's online,

but it hasn't pinged Rountree yet.

Got it. Hey, check this out.

So, Rountree has a sister
who's a freshman at UCLA.

Wait.

If Spitz learned that Rountree
was an undercover agent,

he might threaten Rountree's sister.

Okay, I'm gonna contact the FBI,

have them send a couple agents to UCLA

just to make sure she's all right.

(BEEP)

Overwatch has a connection.

I've got Rountree.

Is he moving?

Um...

No.

Okay. (CLEARS THROAT)

Callen, Fatima, we have located

Agent Rountree.

It's a supermarket in Inglewood.

It's been closed about a month.
The location is in your GPS.

All right, copy that.

Guys, I just got a secure text
from Kensi's phone.

It says "Spitz hired dirty cops.

Maybe Cejudo?"

Is she with Cejudo now?

Yes, and I've alerted them.

They're all on their way
to the supermarket now.

All right, look into Calvillo

and Cejudo's financials and background.

Yep, will do.

If Spitz has cops on his payroll,

one of them could have
given up Rountree's cover.

Well, if Calvillo's dirty,
she could have gone

to that boat last night to kill Rountree.

It would explain
why Rountree ran from us.

So, he's got dirty cops after him.

He doesn't know who to trust.

Could have thought that
we were after him to kill him.

Yeah. Hey, guys, why don't
you have Hetty call the SAC

at the FBI Field Office,
let him know our theory.

And tell Kens as soon as she can

peel away from Cejudo, give us a call.

ERIC: Copy that.

Hey, guys, I'm here alone.

Lance helped me out and took
Cejudo to check the perimeter

- of the supermarket.
- You think Cejudo's dirty?

I don't know.

I mean, he was alone
when he shot and killed Usman.

Usman was our connection to Spitz.

If Cejudo was working for Spitz,
he couldn't risk Usman talking.

Yeah, I'm gonna need more proof

before I classify Cejudo as a dirty cop.

Hey, Kensi, we're all good
on the perimeter.

Copy that.

Where's your team at?

They're about two minutes out.

I'm gonna go in the supermarket.

Uh, no, actually,
Callen told us to wait here.

We'll go in all together.

As far as I know,
I don't take orders from Callen.

LANCE: Look, Cejudo just...

The shooter that killed my
partner could be in there.

- Sorry.
- Cejudo.

Guys, Cejudo's heading
into the supermarket.

CALLEN: Yeah, got it.

We're pulling up to the loading dock now.

So, Overwatch shows Rountree's
still inside the supermarket.

I've got offshore accounts

linked to both Agent Cejudo and Calvillo.

Both balances are high six-figures.

Wow. It would take them
a long time to save that amount

- on their salaries.
- Yeah.

Okay. (CLEARS THROAT)

Hey, guys, we are showing well-funded

offshore accounts for both
Agent Calvillo and Cejudo.

It looks like they were both opened

on the same day six months ago.

Copy that, Nell.

Cejudo entered the rear door.

That son of a bitch used us

to get to Rountree so he could kill him.

Nice of you to join us.

Someone had to make sure
you get out of this alive.

Cejudo's gonna risk everything
to kill Rountree.

He knows his days
as an FBI agent are numbered.

He's got nothing to lose.

He'll take us out
the first chance he gets.

Devin Rountree's scared.

He may think we're here to kill him.

Be alert when you approach him.

You two take the west door,
we're going in this way.

KENSI: On it.

(GUNSHOTS)

Passing aisle ten.

Gunshots sound like they came from

- the freezer section.
- Copy that.

(GUNSHOTS)

CALLEN: Agent Rountree!

Federal agents are on property.

We are here to get you out safely.

(GUNSHOTS)

Checking out the stock room.

Devin, we're NCIS. Lower your weapon.

How do I... how do I know
I can trust you?

CEJUDO: You can't trust them...
they're here to kill you, Devin.

We know about Calvillo and Cejudo.

From the money they took from Spitz.

We can bring you back safely.

Devin, we've got long guns on you.

If we wanted to kill you
you'd be dead already.

CALLEN: You're wounded.

Let us get you out of here.

Come on, buddy, put it down.

Come on.

We've got four shooters, plus Rountree.

You three, take the east.

You, on me.

Cover me.

Cejudo!

LANCE: Don't even think about it.

SAM: Don't you move.

(PANTING)

Nell, we're clear. Need an ambulance

for Special Agent Devin Rountree.

NELL: Copy that, Kens.

You're good.

(INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER)

There he is.

Yeah. Rountree.

(SIGHS) Give me a second, guys.

Sir, you have an open
gunshot wound that...

Look, I'm just asking for a few minutes

to talk to my new friends here.

Whatever. It's your arm.

So, we're your friends now, huh?

(SIGHS) That may have been pushing it,

on account of me being in shock,

'cause of this gunshot wound
that my new friends

were unable to prevent.

(LAUGHS)

You know what we did prevent?

The second shot that
would have split your skull.

That's fair.

Yo, thank you, guys. For real.

I had no idea who I could trust.

Here are the photos

and documents that incriminate
Agents Cejudo, Calvillo

and Brendan Spitz.

Cejudo and Calvillo sold you out.

That was nice work...

moving and staying underground.

Yeah, I mean, I felt the tide turning,

knew I had to bail.

Got a little sister
at UCLA, so I sent her

on a early spring break,
ran with that evidence.

I just didn't know who to turn it into.

Well, you did good, Devin.

Well, and I don't know
how I can thank you guys but...

- We like beer.
- Yeah, yeah.

Well, not just any beer.

- No.
- You guys want me to buy you beer?

- Yeah.
- You know, the kind of beer

you would buy someone

to commemorate an important event.

Very important event,
kind of like, you know,

saving someone's life.

SAM: Yeah, like, a very good beer.

Like that Beverly Hills
Hotel-type of beer.

- EMTs! Yo!
- That's the one...

Ready to roll.

Man with a gunshot wound here.

(LAUGHING)

I cannot believe what Agent
Rountree went through today.

Tell me about it...
on his own, on the run,

danger around every corner.

Man, you'd have to be
pretty special person

to make it through a day like that, huh?

Yeah.

- You hungry?
- I am starving.

Wait, don't you have plans
with your sister tonight?

No. Syd has physical therapy.

She kind of messed up her knee
up in dance class this week.

Cool. (CHUCKLES)

Not that it's cool that she's injured.

It's just cool that we get to hang out.

- I knew what you meant.
- Yeah.

And, it is cool.

So, where shall we dine?

Hmm, you choose the cuisine,
I'll choose the spot.

- Mm!
- Go.

Okay... ramen.

Ramen. Um, uh, ooh.

- Shin Sen Gumi in Little Tokyo.
- (PHONE DINGS)

Ooh, Eric, such an advanced selection.

I'm so impressed.

Hmm.

What's up? Is everything okay?

Uh, yeah, I just got a text message.

Well, I can see that.

Um, no, sorry.

You know my friend Max
who lives up in San Francisco?

Mm-hmm, yeah.

You know how he's starting
a company with his two friends?

They just got fully funded by a VC,

and they want me to be
their fourth partner.

Eric.

That's great.

Right?

Wait, is it?

Ugh.

Hmm.

- Okay.
- Hmm?

- You know what I think?
- Yeah.

I think big news like this

ought to be discussed
over big bowls of ramen.

You know, I think all business decisions

- were made over big bowls of ramen.
- See?

In fact, I heard that Jobs and Woz...

- Oh.
- created Apple over ramen.

Well, I think you heard
wrong on that one, bud.

Are you sure? It was in Cupertino.

- Okay. I'm gonna fact check you.
- (LAUGHS)

When I woke up today,
I would have never guessed

that the day would end with a gunfight

- in Inglewood.
- Well,

being on this team is a rocket ride.

- Really is.
- LANCE: (CHUCKLES) Yeah.

You did good, Fatima.

Thanks.

Are you flying back tonight?

Nah, I'm gonna stay overnight.

I got a room in Malibu.

What? That is so bougie of you.

You joke, but an expenditure like that

is quite out of character for me.

The hotel room?

Well, that and there's

a world-class Muay Thai coach

up there, and I got a private

with him for tomorrow morning
and it ain't cheap.

Oh, well, I think

that that is good way
to spend your money.

And you definitely need the training,

because I am so sick of protecting

your ass in the field, my friend.

Uh, yeah.

Hey, guys, how's Devin?

GSW in the triceps, through and through.

He'll be released later tonight.

Oh, well, maybe we, uh,
stop by and pick him up.

That is a great idea.

Well, if we're gonna do that,
we got a couple hours to kill.

Hmm.

Look, guys, I know
I'm not a part of the team,

so I probably don't get a vote in this,

but, uh, I live

in a land-locked state and I would love

to go have some food
with you guys at the beach.

I think we can make that happen.

Long as dinner's on you.

- Yeah, right.
- (LAUGHS) Closing the trunk.

SAM: Come on, don't be cheap, Lance.

LANCE: There's no way
I'm paying for those guys.

For you two, though, dinner's on me.

SAM: I heard that, Lance. (LAUGHS)
