♪

So, based on the photos,
this is the spot.

Uh, I'm just trying to, uh...

[branch snaps]

Hello?

Okay, I just want to find a spot

that I can watch
without being seen.

[distant screeching]

[laughs softly]

Whoa.

That was crazy.

Must have been some kind
of nocturnal cat, maybe.

But we are still-- Ah!

[grunting][snarling]

[screaming]

♪ Boom, boom, boom, boom

♪ Bang, bang, bang, bang

♪ Boom, boom, boom, boom

♪ How, how, how, how

♪ Hey, hey

♪ You gotta come on.

You look like you got here
real early.

Uh, no.

I stayed up really late.

I was up all night going through

the files Winchester gave me
on Deputy Director Van Cleef.

Did you read his grade school
transcripts, too?

[laughing]:
I might as well have.

He dumped every file

on every mission that Van Cleefhas worked on

for the past seven years.

This... this is every mission
he ever led personally,

including whenI worked with him.

Way to go, Winchester.Yeah.

I guess after saving both
his life and his career

taking down that DIA mole,
he was feeling generous.

Read your file yet?

You know, after all these years,
I don't know.

I just... I couldn't.

You'll read it
when you're ready.

Yeah.

Anyway, I did go through the
other operations, though.

Find a pattern of behavior?

It's the way he handled
disciplinary actions.

He cited 15
senior female field agents

for things like breaches
of protocol, poor judgment.

They all had otherwiseclean records.

Any male agents?

Three. But...

they had all been
previously disciplined

by other supervisors.

Hmm.

I'm beginning to think,

unconsciously or not,

Van Cleef has a problem
with female field agents.

You really think
it was unconscious?

I'm being kind.Mm.

Well, you really did dig
into the pattern.

Let's look into promotions,demotions, firings.

And let's see if there's any

gender-based trends
in the areas, too.

Look, Tammy, you don't have to.
Are you kidding?

If this is
what's really...

I'm kicking a hornet's nest.

If this pattern
really does exist,

then that's a nest
that needs kicking,

and I'm all in.

I'm sure Pride
will be, too.

Pride already went to bat for mewith Van Cleef.

I don't want him
sticking his neck out again.

Okay.

Dwayne.Linda,

what... what are you doing here?

[laughs]:
It's nice to see you, too.

Sorry. I just, I just
wasn't expecting...

What, your ex-wife showing up
without calling or texting?

Exactly.Well, it's the big

planning of the wedding weekend.I just thought that

that would start, you know,
on-on the weekend.

Well, it is.

But Laurel, I mean, she's...

we only have two days.

There's venues and there's
flowers and there's catering,

and so I just came
a little early.

Right. Well...

welcome.

Uh, can I get you a coffee?

Or breakfast, or...?No, no, I'm good.

I actually just came in

for an awkward hello.[chuckles]

And then go and make my rounds.

Well, mission accomplished.

All right, I admit it.

I mean, I knewyou bought the place.

But I just kind of wanted
to see it for myself and

tell you that I'm really glad
that it's finally yours.

Thank you.

How's everything in, uh,
in Houston?

It's good.

Ted and I celebratedour fourth anniversary.

Wow. Congratulations.

How are you and Rita?We're great.

Hmm.

Let me just make you
something to eat before

you have to rush out.No, no, I'm not gonna
put you out.

You're not putting me...
out at all.[phone beeping]

Okay?

[chuckles]

Um, it's, it's a case.

Yeah. It-It's okay.
I-I-I have a lot to get done,

so...

It was great to see you.

[door opens, closes]

PRIDE:
Morning. What've we got?

Victim was
Lieutenant Daniel Sloan.

Naval microbiologist.

Looks like the body was draggedout of the water

and mauled by some kind
of wild animal.

PRIDE:
How long was it in the water?WADE: A few hours.

Probably went in
somewhere upstream.Time of death?

I'm putting it somewhere aroundsix to ten hours ago.

Middle of the night.

What the hell was he doing
out here?

CARTER:
Good question.

The local sheriffs are still
canvassing the area,

but no sign of any vehicle
or witnesses for that matter.

So it could've been dumped.

SEBASTIAN: These waters aren'ta bad place to dump a body.

Another day or so,
alligators could've

disposed of the corpse.You thinking foul play?

WADE:
Can't rule it out.

We'll see when we get
to the morgue.

Okay.

Let's start digging into
Lieutenant Sloan's life.

HANNAH:Hey.

You got a sec?

Well, if this is about
that fancy bottle

of whiskey you loaned me,

I'll buy you a new one.It's not about that.

It's aboutDeputy Director Van Cleef.

You were right.

He was responsible formy demotion as team leader.

And there is a history there.That you don't have to explain.

I don't need to know.
It's not my business.

No, it's okay, I want to.

Here's the thing,I've been trying

to locate people-- women--

who have had similar experiencesto mine,

to talk to.

You want to tank
his DoD appointment?I want

to make sure all the relevant
information is out there.

I never took you for
the David and Goliath type.

Neither did I.
But here I am.

What do you need?

You said that you worked
with someone at Pearl Harbor

who had a run-in with Van Cleef?

Look, I think the name ofthat woman is Emily Landau.

And I've been trying
to get ahold of her,

but she doesn't work
for NCIS anymore.

You know what?
Never mind.

I can find her, if
that's what you want.

If she's open to talking
to you, I can connect you.

But if she's not, I won't.

You're protective of her.
I get it.

Van Cleef is a powerful man
with powerful friends.

He could hurt her
and he can hurt you.

You, too.Yeah, but...

I hate a bully.

And I love a fight.

KEVIN:
I couldn't believe it

when I heard he was dead.

I'm sorry.Thanks.

It's all anyone can talk about.

Do you know of anyone who
would want to hurt him?

Dan? Are you kidding?

He was a great guy.

What was he working on here?

We've been optimizing the
diagnosis and prevention kits

for infectious diseases
in different areas.

Any idea what he was doing
out in the bayou

in the middle of the night?

Everybody could tell you that.

He was hunting monsters.

Dan's hobby was myth-busting.

Seriously?

Yeah, he believed there was

a scientific explanationfor everything.

He was gonna do a podcast
about it.You know what, uh,

what creature he was out
there chasing, or...?

Dan had heard something about
some nocturnal swamp creature,

I forget what it's called.

The, uh, the Tougaloo?

Rougarou! It's the
bayou werewolf.

That's awesome. Wow.

What a great idea for a podcast.

I've got sometheories myself

that I've been working on--
nothing...

Dan saw a bunch
of photos online

a couple weeks ago.Supposedly

sightings of the
whatchamacallit.

Rougarou.He talked about it all the time.

He went out there
to see for himself.

Maybe it--
maybe it's real after all?

No.
Maybe.

I think I would've liked
Lieutenant Sloan.

WADE:
Really?

Yeah, he was a scientist witha soft spot for urban legends.

You know?What's not to like?

I know we're not supposed
to think that way.

It's never wrong to
acknowledge the humanity

of the victims we encounter.

Well, what happened to him?Bruising of the back

of the neck, petechial
hemorrhaging in the eyes.

He was strangled?I am ruling it as a homicide,

but the cause of death
is drowning.

He had significant water
in his lungs.

So the killer held his head
underwater until he drowned.

That's consistent
with my findings.

Well, what about these maulings?

WADE:
The lack of bleeding suggests
the injuries were

inflicted postmortem.

Any idea what caused them?

This part you're gonna like.

I found what appears to be
animal hair in the wounds.

I'm sending it to the lab
for analysis.

Hair? You know, uh,Rougarou's got hair.

And it, uh, supposedlyit-it suffocates its victims

before it eats them.

So...

I'm not saying that there'sa bayou werewolf out there.

Okay?

A guy can dream, right?

Emily Landau'sphone number.

You talked to her?
She's willing to talk?

She's willing to listen.

Now, she lives in Virginia.

You can videoconference herbefore the end of the day,

as long as
the connection is secure.

Today?The sooner the better.

Before she gets cold feet.

Look, if you'regonna do this,

you need to do it before

Van Cleef'sconfirmation hearing.

Or it's pointless.

You're right.

Thank you.

LINDA:
Thank you so much

for coming down here.

So this is, uh,

what Laurel'sgot her heart set on?

Yeah, I, um...

She was on lunch,
I FaceTimed her,

and she flipped over it.

And since we're both breaking
our piggy banks for this,

I just wanted to make sure
that you saw it

before I made
the deposit.

Okay. It's pricey.

But you have to admit,

it's really lovely.

This is for one night?Yeah.

Laurel loves it?

Yes.

[exhales]

Let's do it.

Okay. I'm gonnapull the trigger.

[chuckles]:
Yeah.

You know, I'm starting to feel
like this whole wedding thing

is really real.

I've actually been thinking
about that all day.

Our little girl,

walking around with
that stuffed pig every day?

Part of me washoping that Laurel

was gonna call and say,"Cancel everything."

Yeah, wouldn't that be nice?

Are we awful?

Probably.

But it's just so sudden.

I mean, she's marrying a cop.
That's a huge mistake.

[chuckles]
You're kidding, right?

Look,

David's a great guy.

I'm sure he's a great guy, but
he's a great guy with a badge.

I mean, why are you hopingthat they're gonna call it off?

I just felt like
they're just going too fast.

But I got no problem
with his career.

Of course not.

I mean, it meansyou get the last word.

What's that mean?

Laurel is marrying a cop.

Just like Dad.I mean, come on.

Laurel has made her peace
with what it means

to live with a cop.

As a daughter. Not a wife.

Do you reallywant her waiting,

worrying for the rest
of her life?

Wasn't always that bad, Linda.

Really?

Thanks for feeling that for me.

That's not what I meant.

I meant that there
were good times, too.

Of course there were.

But the bad timeslanded on my shoulders.

Because it wasn't
a problem for you.

Linda, come on.You know what?

You were off being a hero,

you were saving the city.

But you're right.

It was not the job.
It was never the job.

Because you treated itlike a calling,

not a career.

Why is it a crime
to love my work?

It's not.

But the way you do it,

there's not any roomfor anything else.

And no matterhow much I loved you,

God, it-it would'vebeen easier

having a mistress.

All thosebroken people,

I couldn't compete with them.

You're the one who left.

You're the one

who broke up the family, not me.

I might've left last,but you were

the first one to leave.

Don't do that.
We both agreed.

We both agreed
that we needed time apart.

I am not talking about
the separation, Dwayne.

When you came home,
you promised to be present.

To work at it.

But I did. I was.

For Laurel.

You were a great dad.

I would never deny you that.

But you were notthere for me.

[phone ringing]

[sighs]

[scoffs]

Pride.

The SAC?

Fine. But I'm in the middle
of something right now.

I'll get there when I get there.

[quietly]:Just go.No. No.

I want to finish this.

We're finished, Dwayne.

I really don't wantto fight with you anymore.

I'm done.

PATTON:
I found the photos

Sloan found online
of the swamp thing.

It's called the Rougarou.Do the photos actually show it?

What? No. Not even close,
'cause it's not a real thing.

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

Why is everyone treating me
like I don't know that?

'Cause you still kind of hope,
and it's pathetic.

[Sebastian sighs]

I mean, that's not
exactly proof positive.

Must have intrigued him.

Any info on who posted
the photos online?

PATTON:
I.P. address belongs

to a Cajun Creatures Swamp Tour.

Hmm.

Sure, I remember this guy.Nice young man.

He took the touronce or twice.

He was, uh, interested
in the Rougarou.

KAREN:
A lot of people
who come on our tours

believe in that foolishness.

Well, I don't know
if I'd call it foolishness.

Just because we run a swamp tourdoesn't mean we're morons.

Oh, sure, but I'm just sayingthat, you know, there's probably

a lot of very smart people

out there who
keep an open mind

about this kind of thing.Of course.

It's not our place to judge.

Well, you do more than that,right? You fuel interest in it?

Not following.

The photos online.

We traced the I.P.
address back to you.

Oh, those. W...

Well, they're good for business.

Oh? So you get customers

based on photos of dead animalswith scratched-up carcasses?

Yeah, I guess so.Imagine if

there was an escalation

from dead animal
to dead human.

Attacked by a Rougarou.SEBASTIAN:Mm-hmm.

What are you suggesting?
You think we killed him?

That's not... We would never
do something like that. Never.

Well, what would you do
if you found a body?

If I found a body?

Say that again.
Say "I've found a body."

What?He's the one who called 911.

Vincent, is that true?

Oh, what if I did find it?

Uh, calling 911
was the decent thing to do.

You didn't think
to mention that up front?

I didn't kill him.Well, then, what
were you gonna...

You were gonna post photos
of the mauled body online,

you were gonna blame
it on the Rougarou.

VINCE:I took some pictures,

but I didn't post 'em.
I realized it wasn't...

Classy?

I didn't kill him.

KAREN:He's not a killer,

he's just an idiot.

What aren't you telling us?

Nothing, I...

He came by one day last week.

He was wanting to know
about the photos online,

and he wanted to know
where they were shot.

And I told him,
couple miles upstream,

and he said he was gonna
check out that area.

I really appreciate this.

Quentin says you're good people.

But I don't have a lot of time.

I've got to get back
to the office.

Okay, I'll get right
to the point.

You left NCIS after an incidentat your posting at Pearl Harbor.

Counterintelligence sting
that went wrong?

I can't get into those details.

Okay, you don't have to.

You just have to confirm thatDirector Van Cleef demoted you.

He didn't.
I resigned before he could.

Are you aware
that Director Van Cleef

is up for a promotion at DoD?

No. No, when?

As soon as he gets
Senate confirmation.

He's gonna be Chief
of Naval Operations.

ZOEY:
Mommy?

Oh, hey, Zoey, honey, uh,

Mommy's doing something
for work here.

Have Amy

fix you a snack, huh?
I'll be right there.

Uh, sorry about that.

No, no, no, it's okay. I, um...

I was reviewing your file
from Pearl Harbor.

It looks like you were buildinga case against a hacker

who broke into the base network,

but you cut
your key witness loose?

I made a judgment call.

I pulled a witnessbecause her story kept changing.

Case fell apart.

Van Cleef claimed
I was responsible

for not vetting
the witness properly

and for possibly falsifying

statements.

There was no point
in fighting it,

so I took early retirement.

Did you ever feel like Van Cleef

treated you differently
because you're a woman?

[grunts]

When I, uh, I left NCIS,

I moved into the private sectoras a security consultant.

My firm has multiple contracts
with the government,

most of which require
DoD approval.

It's a good living.

Look, I know that coming forwardis high-risk and low-reward.

I worry about my own career.

But I also know that if people

like you and me
don't come forward,

nothing will ever change.

[whispers]:I have two daughters to support.

I have a daughter, too.
And aren't you sick of it?

Watching your mediocre
male colleagues just drift up

the ladder with a slap
on the back and an attaboy?

While people like you and me
work twice as hard

just to stay in the game,

and still get demoted
and disciplined?

Am I sick of swimming in a sea
of white male privilege?

Of course I am.

If Deputy Director Van Cleef
gets DoD,

how will things ever change
for our girls?

It took me a long time to get
over what Van Cleef did to me.

I'm a single mom.
I've made a good life for us.

I'm not just gonna
throw that away.

I understand.

Do you?

Because I can't become
another one

of Van Cleef's casualties.

I'm not gonna end up
like Maya Caldwell.

Who?

Maya. The one who died.

Agent Pride.

Deputy Director Van Cleef.

I apologize for not
doing this on the phone,

but, as I'm sure you understand,

certain things need
to be handled face-to-face.

Of course.I didn't know you were in town.

I shouldn't be.

I should be in D.C.
prepping for confirmation.

I heard about your promotion.

Congratulations.Thank you.

Chief of Naval Operations.
Big deal.

I'll be a member of
the Joint Chiefs,

military advisor to
the National Security Council.

Yes, sir,
that's very prestigious.

I've been working toward
a position like this

for nearly four decades.

And yetyou're here with me.

The only thing standing
between me and my future

is a Senate
confirmation hearing.

And that was all but a
formality until yesterday.

What happened yesterday?

Hannah Khoury.

Did you really think
I wouldn't hear

about what she's been doing?

She never accepted her demotion.

I'm not sure what you think...

I'm not speculating. I know.

I have eyes and ears

everywhere at NCIS,

and all the way up and downthe chain of command at the DoD.

She's trying to find dirt on me.

And this never would've happened
if she'd been put in her place

like I wanted.

Honestly, sir,
this is news to me.

Well, maybe she's playing youfor a fool.

Or maybe you'rein it together.

But it doesn't matter.She's reckless,

emotional,and out of control.

Call her off, or hers won't bethe only career that she ends.

Dwayne, I was just
about to call you.

Lab results?

Animal hair found

in the claw marks on the
body was from a bobcat.

Sebastian was hoping
for a Rougarou.

[laughs]
Let him down gently.

[chuckles softly]

[water running]

[water stops]

One of those days?

Yeah. That's an understatement.

Just got my asshanded to me

by Deputy Director Van Cleef.

What's he upset about?

I'm not quite sure yet.

He didn't tell you?I didn't ask.

Okay.

But I-I think it hassomething to do with Hannah.

But I haven't had a chance
to ask her because she's busy

doing whatever it is
that's pissing Van Cleef off.

I'm sure she had a good reason.

And that's just one frontI'm fighting.

Linda's in town to do somewedding planning for Laurel.

I take it it's not going well.

It was fine.

At first. Awkward but pleasant.

What happened?

20 years of baggage.

[laughs softly]
Sorry.

We both moved on.

We're both happy with the peoplewe're with, but...

Sometimes when a wound
hasn't properly healed,

it doesn't take much
to aggravate the injury.

She said I abandoned her
for the people

I was trying to save on the job.

Worst part is,

she's not wrong.

That's me in a nutshell.

It takes a big man to
admit something like that.

Oh, I-I didn't admit it to her.

Everything that's happened
in my life...

...goes back to my mother,
Red and Cassius.

Even the failure
of my marriage.

Those are powerful insights.

Insights don't change the past.

HANNAH:
I'm sorry I didn't
come to you first,

I'm sorry I kept you
out of the loop.Don't apologize.

But just please tell mewhat's going on.

I don't know where to start.

How about the beginning?

You have a pastwith Van Cleef.

You wouldn't tell me
about it before. But now...

Seven years ago,
there was an attack

on our naval base in Bahrain.

I was working counterterrorism.

We tied the attackto an ISIS cell in Algeria.

I was sent to scoop them up,

D.C. sent their man
to supervise.

Van Cleef?

We clashed from the start.

He didn't wantto use local resources.

Thought everyone
was a double agent.

Wanted a clean mission.

But I was boots on the ground,I knew there was no such thing,

so I set up a network
of informants.

Only way to get intel.

Yeah, I cultivated one
who was the real deal.

Young man named Farid.

He tooksome convincing.

His wife didn't want him
to get involved.

The intelligence he providedled to the capture

of the entire ISIS cell.

But...Somehow his identity

was leaked
t-to the Algerian press.

The next day his facewas all over the newspapers,

the... television.

I guaranteed his safety.

He was beaten to deathin his own home,

in front of his wifeand his children.

27 years old, just tryingto do the right thing.

I didn't get to him in time.

How was his identity leaked?

Van Cleef accused me.

I did everything by protocol.I don't know howit could've been me.

I-I asked him to launch aninvestigation, but he wouldn't.

So all the blame landed on you.

Yeah, I was transferred
and disciplined.

That's painful. I'm sorry.

But that was a
long time ago.

Why go after Van Cleef now?

Something thatCarter said

when we found out
Van Cleef was going to DoD.

He said that there was
another female agent

who'd had a bad experience
with Van Cleef.

That she got a raw deal,just like me.

Something just clicked.

I've been living with the guiltof Farid's death for so long.

I knew that Van Cleef
had a problem with me.

I-I just never considered
it could be more than that.

Who gave you access
to Van Cleef's files?

Winchester.
I tried to keep it quiet.

Van Cleef knows
what you're doing.

I'm so sorry you got
dragged into this.

You got nothing to
apologize to me for.

But since I'm in,

why don't you show me
what you got?

NOPD found Daniel Sloan's car,

exactly where the swamp tourdude said it would be.

Yeah, he was out there
myth-busting.

GREGORIO:There's another setof tire tracks.

Yeah, two cars went in,
only one went out.

We get any more information
on these tracks?

Nothing useful. But I did finda phone in Daniel Sloan's car.

And what did you learn?

He uses his birthday
as his password.

And he seems to have
a girlfriend.

Meet Stacy Ulrich.

Wait, how did we not
know about her?

The texts only go backa few weeks.

Seems like a new relationship.

Sebastian,
let's go talk to Stacy.

You definitely have the data
to back up your claims.

He was discipliningfemale agents

at almost five times
the rate as male agents.

Yeah, and all of the womenhad otherwise clean records.

None of the men did.

What I don't haveis human corroboration.

What can I do to help?

[sighs] I don't know, this thinghas taken on a life of its own.

There is one thing.

There's a woman that I heardabout, a Maya Caldwell.

She was on a mission withVan Cleef out of Kuala Lumpur.

I don't remember that name.

It's not there.

I don't have access to the file.It's from ten years ago.

Winchester only gave meseven years' worth of files.

Well, what do you know
about the mission?

Nothing. It was classified.

All I know isthat Maya Caldwell

died in a car crash

less than a year after
her assignment with Van Cleef.

And that her family lives
in Atlanta.

You think her death was somehowconnected to Van Cleef?

Emily Landau sure does.

Hannah, look,
I'm here to support you.

And I don't want to rush in
and try to save the day.

I know you got this.

So you tell me,
what do you want to do?

I need to know more
about how Maya Caldwell died.

Then let's go to Atlanta.

Okay.

Clear!

Clear.

She's not here.

What the hell's going on here?

We were so close growing up.

Sometimes it's hard to believethat it's been almost ten years

since my sister died.

She never met my husband,
my kids.

I'm so sorry.Thank you.

She was an amazing person,
but...

you're not here to listen
to me gush about Maya.

I'm interested in
her time at NCIS.

Especially her
last mission.

What do you knowabout it?Not much.

She was in Kuala Lumpurfor about a year, and then home.

Did she tell you
what she was working on?

She never talked about work.

And most of it
was classified.

That was one
of the hardest things,

especially after she came home.

She couldn't talkabout any of it.

Maya really needed
to talk to someone.

Did she ever
say anything

about a supervisor
named Van Cleef?

Ah, yeah.

That name I heard a lot.

Uh, nothing specific,

but...

I could tell he'd donesomething to her.

Done something?He was the reason

she left NCIS.

She said that?Yeah.

Whatever happened there,

it was the beginning

of the end for her.

What was her transition like
to the private sector?

There wasn't one.
She took some time off,

tried to transition
into teaching.

Teaching?She said

teaching was all she could do.

She knew seven
languages.

She didn't look
for security positions?

With her background andexperience, she should have had

her pick of consulting jobs.

She just said she couldn't
work in that field.

No one would hire her.

Van Cleef may have gotten
her clearance revoked.

She never said that,
but it explains a lot.

She kept saying that
man ruined her future.

I think she was depressed.

I know she was self-medicating.

First alcohol, then pills.

Before, Maya was...

she was a force of nature.

Confident, funny, generous.

Sounds like she was
a great big sister.

Yeah, the best.

But when she came home,
she was smaller, somehow.

She f-folded in

on herself.

Van Cleef wasn't in Maya's car
the night she wrapped it

around that tree,but he might as well have been.

As far as I'm concerned,
he's the reason she's dead.

SEBASTIAN:
Okay, thanks. Yep.

So, Carter, uh, found a neighborwho heard screaming

and a loud male voice
coming from Stacy's house.

Oh. How neighborlynot to call the cops.

I guess Stacy was abductedfrom her house.

Listen, we needto rethink this.

Whoever abducted Stacy
killed Daniel, too,

so who are we looking for?

What's the motive?

Well, I mean,
I'm-I'm just spitballing here,

but maybe it's
a-a romantic rival?

Well, that would explain killingDaniel and keeping Stacy alive.

If she is still alive.

I think she is,but who knows for how long.

I got something.

But it's dark.Let's hear it.

I was looking for any kind
of online footprint

that would include
Daniel Sloan and Stacy Ulrich.

Now, aside from the dating app
they met on,

I found a site on the darknet

that mentioned them both
by name.

Well, who posted it?

Well, it's anonymous.

But it's a websitewhere the participant can write

their murder/rape/whatever
fantasy.

He wrote a fantasy
about having sex

with Stacy in the
aftermath of the murder

of her previous
boyfriend Daniel Sloan.

People write stuff
like this online?

Of course, Sebastian. There'sa lot of twisted crap out there.

They get off
on having an audience.

They feel safely hiddenbehind firewalls.

This is a major firewall.

Okay. So maybe
this is a-a stalker

who thought that Daniel
Sloan was his only obstacle

to getting what he wanted?GREGORIO:Right.

So he shows up at her house,
she's not smitten.

Nothing's going
according to the fantasy.

He has to abduct herto get her to go

wherever he wantsher to go.

That would infuriate him,and if that's the case,

he'd start to decompensate,

meaning he'd become moredelusional, more erratic,

more violent.

I need that I.P. address, fast.

I'm looking for a back door.

I'm in.

I.P. addressis an apartment

leased to a Kevin McCabe.

That's the lab tech
who worked with Daniel.

All right, send it to my GPS.

Federal agents!

SEBASTIAN:Kevin McCabe,

put your hands up.

Come on, Kevin,you don't want to do that.

Let her go.

I had to tie her up.

She wasn't being nice to me!

Because you're scaring her.

She's afraid of you.

If it wasn't for Dan,

we could've
been together.

I had to get rid of him.

But Stacy justneeds some time.

Right, Stacy?

You just need a little time.

[grunts]
No...

GREGORIO:See?

She wants it to work
between the two of you.

[muffled cries]

She does?

Yeah.

Look at her face.
She's not lying.

[groaning]

It's over. Okay?

Yeah.

You're gonna be okay.
All right?

You lied to me.

Yeah. I did.

Not bad for a day's work.

Yeah. You know, you were
really impressive up there.

Zoned right in
on his pathology.

Saved two lives.Thanks.

Not too shabby yourself.
Thank you.

Though I got to say
this case has really just

killed my interest
in the Rougarou.

Good.

What, are you taking joy
in my shattered illusion?

No, I'm not takingjoy in it.

I'm just happy you'reditching the idiocy.

Idiocy?

I call it like I see it, bro.

You know what,
maybe I won't give it up.

Oh, here we go.

I mean, these creatures,

mythical or not, they, uh...

they make the world interesting.

So, basically, this case
reinforced your pathetic

fascination with a stupid
swamp creature?

No, actually you did
back there when...

Wait a minute.

What?I know what you just did.

You reverse psychology'd me.

Oh, get out of here.No. Yeah.

You said something was
stupid and pathetic

to get my hackles up.[scoffs]

Because you knew how
I was gonna react.

You're crazy.I did not.

Yeah, you did.

Hey, knock it off.

You know what, Tammy Gregorio?

You may have
this prickly exterior,

but I see your soft
and creamy center.

You're disgusting.

It was not the right
choice of words, I agree.

You want a creamy pop?What are you doing?

Why are you coming over here?

Leave me alone.
I'm a federal agent!

How'd it go in Atlanta?

It was sad.

The sister couldn't help?

No.

None of the women who
Van Cleef screwed over

wanted to come forward, so...

I don't know.
Maybe I'm in over my head.

Maybe I should just let it go.

I don't think so.

There's somethingI need to tell you

about your missionin Algeria.

How'd you know about that?

I read the file.

Well, I don't need to readthe file, I lived it.Fair enough.

But I did need to read it.

And I know about the informant
who got exposed, his death.

And that Van Cleef submitted
a report blaming you

for the whole fiasco.

The thing is,

he wrongly blamed you for it.

Well, it was complicated.

No, not really.

What did you find?

A photo of your informant was
leaked to the Algerian press.

I tracked the photo down.

Why?'Cause I wanted
to figure out

howit got leaked.

It was an official NCIS
informant photo.

It was hacked
from someone's phone.

They never figured out who.Van Cleef was sure it was mine.

Yeah, well, they didn't have
Patton Plame on the payroll.

Don't tell me that you got
Patton involved in this.

He wouldn't shut up

until I agreed
to let him help.

He dug into the metadata
found in the JPEG image,

tracked it back
to the cell phone

from where it was hacked.

It wasn't your
phone, Hannah.

It was Van Cleef's.

Are you sure about this?Yeah.

He threw you under the bus
to cover

for his own security breach.

You can prove this?Yeah.

Patton and I will stand up
behind whatever it is

you want to do with this.

So... what's it gonna be?

I'm gonna go public.

VAN CLEEF: I'm heading
back to D.C. in two hours.

I need to know that you've gotthis Khouri mess under control.

Oh, it's taken care of, sir.

I hope you're not justplacating me, Pride.

And that you understandthe severity of the situation.

My Senate hearing ison the calendar

for the end of the month.

If Special Agent Khoury is
within a hundred-mile radius

of D.C. at that time...

Please go on.
What will you do?

What the hell is she doing here?

Don't talk to him.
You can talk to me.

What happens if I go
anywhere near D.C.?

You arrange this?

HANNAH:
You'll ruin my career?

Have my clearance revoked?

Frame me for a leak?

Damn it, Pride, I told you
to rein this woman in.

This woman has a
mind of her own.

I've already notified the SenateArmed Services committee

that I'm going to testify
at your confirmation hearing.

So I guess I will
see you in D.C.

You'll be committing
career suicide.

Both of you.No. We're doing the right thing.

It's you who's committing
career suicide.

I know about Algeria.

I know that the leak that
killed Farid Mokrani

came from your phone,
not mine.

And I can prove it.You'll look likea vindictive shrew.

I can show patterns
of gender bias

in missions that you led
going back years.

Patterns in the way that you
disciplined, demoted,

and fired female agents.

You don't have access tothat kind of intelligence.Algeria,

Seoul, Naples, Romania,
Manila, Pearl Harbor.

Who have you been talking to?

It's all true,
and I can prove it.

You think you're gonnacome out of this clean?

Your record will bescrutinized.

Picked apart.

They'll crucify you.Maybe.

But maybe I'll be the one
to open the floodgates,

and they can't crucify
all of us.

I'm willing to bet on myself.
How about you?

What do you expect me to do?Resign.

Take a job in the
private sector.

I blame you for this.

You are the fiercest field agentI have ever known.

I wish I was a flyon that wall, though.

True. I got to sayI'm impressed.

I don't know, guys,
I keep waiting for

the director to call me
and tell me I'm fired.

Oh, please, they can't fire youfor speaking truth to power.

CARTER:
Actually, I'm pretty sure

they do that all the time.

PRIDE:Yeah, well, not this time.

Just got off the phone
with the director.

[scoffs]
God.

No, it's all good.

Van Cleef submitted
his resignation,

effective immediately.

What?
Because of what we did?

What you did.

You made yourself heard.

You gave other agents a voice.

Maybe this is just
the beginning.

I can't believe it.

Thank you.

[chuckles]
I was just along
for the ride.

You did allthe heavy lifting.

All of you.

Thank you so much.

I asked, and you guys
were both there.

GREGORIO:Oh, stop.

Let's not get all sappy now.

We've got too much
to celebrate

to be sitting in this
kitchen, drinking.

Can we go to the bar, please?

You go ahead.

Laurel's coming in tonight.Okay.

I got some things
I need to take care of

before she gets here.

You made a difference.

Thanks.

All right, come on, let's go.
What are we doing?

All right, I'm wiped. One drinkbut only if I'm buying.

No argument from me.
Carter?

Mm...

Oh, come on. I'm not
taking no for an answer.

Get your ass to the bar

and let me buy you
that thank-you cocktail.

Okay, okay, just this one time.

Dwayne.

Thank you for seeing me.

Um, I've been thinking about
what you said.

No, I don't thinkwe should go there.

I just want to say one thing.

You say one thing,

then I say something back,

and then we're...Linda, damn it.

[sighs]

Will you let me talk?

Please?

All I'm trying to say is...

I'm sorry.
You were right.

I didn't expect that.

I've learned some things
about myself recently,

about my past, why I do some
of the things that I do.

What you said about me
needing to rescue people,

be a hero... it's true.

But until you said it,

I hadn't thought about
how it had affected you.

You never needed me
to rescue you.

No, I didn't.

I did the best that I knew
how to do at the time.

It just wasn't enough.

Not for us.

Dwayne,

I...

Thank you.

Okay.

Uh...
[clears throat]

[woman laughing nearby]

You want to grab a drink at the
Carousel Bar, or you want...?

You know, maybe we, um...

we just quit while we're ahead.

[car alarm chirps]

[Hannah sighs]

What are you doing here?

You think you'regonna win, don't you?

Gonna prove some kind
of point. Right?

Look, honestly,
you need to leave.

No matter how many of you
crawl out of the woodwork

to claw at me,

it won't makeany difference.

Because I've spent
too many years

working my way up the ladder.

I know you think you're
a very important man,

and I understand that.

But right now you're
a trespasser on my property.

And you have two options.

You can leave,
or I will call the cops

and have them remove you.

Please choose the second option.
