[WOMAN] Excuse me! Hello?

Your dog, he, like, tried to...

You know?

Why don't you try and complete the sentence?

Wanted sexy time with Angel.

[DOC ROY CHUCKLES] Sexy time!

Buster, Buster, Buster.

Your standards are dropping, mate.

No need to be so rude.

There's no need to bring a dog that's on heat into a dog café.

[SCOFFS] Angel's not on heat.

Sexy Time's had her snout

up a different dog's behind every five minutes.

That dog is not on heat, I'm Michael Douglas.

[SCOFFS]

Even though I feel like Kirk.

[BREATHES SHAKILY]

[DOC ROY] Kid?

You know you're bleeding?

Yeah, look, um...

I'm a doctor. Would you like me to have a look at it?

- What's with all the dogs? - It's a café for dogs.

It's a weird world, huh?

[SIREN WAILS]

[ENGINE REVS]

Kid, are you in some sort of trouble?

[PANTS]

- Hey... kid... - Get off of me!

Everybody back the hell up.

[PATRONS MURMUR]

[INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER]

Get away from the door! Back of the café. Now!

Easy! Easy.

Come out with your hands in the air.

Hands in the air. Now!

- [DOC ROY] Just get back. - [MAN] Go, go, go, go.

Listen, kid, just take a breath.

- Bro, how about you shut up? - Just don't do anything rash.

- Come out, hands up! - Get down on the ground!

Ground! Now!

Youget on the ground!

Shoot me and we all die.

- [OFFICER] Stand down. - That's right. That's right.

Back the hell up! Keep going.

Keep going.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

[GRUNTS]

For God's sake...

Let me get that.

Don't try anything stupid, bro.

I'm not the one with my finger on the button, bro.

Get to the back of the café. Now.

Go!

[THEME MUSIC]

[JD] Sorry I'm late.

[MACKEY] Everything okay?

[JD] Yeah, will be when I've had my coffee.

[EVIE] Whoa. Did you sleep last night?

- Where's Roy? - How'd you get that bedhead?

Got a big pot of filter brewing.

- [PHONE BUZZES] - Eugh. No, thanks.

Here he is.

Hey, mate. Where are you?

We're all waiting for our morning fix.

[DOC ROY] Did you make that yourself

or did someone make it for you?

Oh, relax, mate. No one's touched your machine.

We're just waiting for you.

What's it packed with? Plastic? Semtex? What?

What's with all the questions?

Hey, everyone listen up. Listen up.

[DOC ROY] Well, mild curiosity.

I wanna know how many pieces I'm gonna get blown into

when that thing around your waist goes off.

It's a strange thing

to bring into the Ground and Hound café, by the way.

Okay, alert the Staties.

We need TOU and Bomb Disposal

down to the Ground and Hound Café now.

- Are you talking to the cops? - Hmm?

Told you not to try anything.

I'm doing what I have to do.

Everybody, sit down. I don't wanna see anyone standing.

You, get everyone's phones.

[PATRONS MURMUR]

'Sup, world? Coming at you from the Ground and Hound.

Guys, wait, wait, wait. I have something.

[GIRL] Facts.

Anyone comes through those doors,

we all go bang.

Anyone messes with my live fee,

bang.

The hell is that place?

It's a doggie café.

We like our dogs, we like our coffee. You know, coffee, dogs.

[EVIE] Yeah, send it through.

Yeah, I owe you.

Kid's name is Louie Hall.

Blue, I've just sent you a file.

Yep. Yep, I'm pulling it up now.

[DESHAWN] Wait, where are we?

[EVIE] Commercial Bank in Pyrmont, 9:42am.

- She robbed a bank? - And a cop's been shot dead.

- Is she the shooter? - It's not clear yet.

[DEVICE BEEPS]

[WHIMPERS]

[TENSE MUSIC]

[OFFICER] Ladies and gentlemen, I need you to back up.

Back up, thank you. A bit more.

- [ONLOOKER] Come on! - [OFFICER] Thanks a lot.

[JD] Excuse us. Excuse me.

- Excuse us. - [MACKEY] Comin' through. NCIS.

[JD MURMURS INAUDIBLY]

- [MACKEY] What? - Nothing.

You two have history?

[JD] Mmm.

Ancient or modern?

Okay.

[JD] Cath.

JD. Hi.

Detective Sergeant Cath Welsh, meet Special Agent Mackey.

Don't recall requesting NCIS backup.

One of our team is in there. Thought we might lend a hand.

Thanks. We have systems in place.

Can I get a minute?

[JD CLEARS THROAT]

[CATH CLEARS THROAT]

So Roy's my guy.

Happy to throw my hat in the ring to negotiate.

Bucknall has the bullhorn.

Bucknall's never run a live siege.

- He's had the training. - I wrote the program.

So he knows what to expect.

Gotta be a first time for everyone, JD.

Do we know if the kid's armed?

Unclear at this point. Have to assume she is.

- So? - So what?

[SCOFFS] Come on, Cath.

With someone on the inside, outcomes are always better.

You'd be taking orders from me.

Goes without saying.

That'd be a first!

First time for everything, right?

[SIREN WAILS IN DISTANCE]

[JD CHUCKLES]

[GROANS]

[CATH] Get him whatever he needs.

[POLICE OFFICER] Copy that.

[OFFICER 2] Stand back.

[OFFICER 3] Sir, can I get you to move on?

I'm talking to you.

I need you to vacate the area.

[TENSE MUSIC]

Excuse me!

Excuse me. Move!

Move. Move, move, move.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

[DESHAWN] Boss.

Pulled the CCTV from the cameras outside the bank.

- Check it out. - All right.

See, the kid's almost done robbing the bank

when a patrol car pulls up

to talk to the driver of the getaway car.

The hell? Wait, no. Freeze it there.

She shoot him or not?

It's not clear from the angle that we have.

[MACKEY] What about the cop's body-cam?

Put in the request to LAC. Waiting to hear back.

We're on the clock, people.

Bust someone's balls. We need that footage.

- [DESHAWN] Got it. - Blue?

Blue, the kid's phone - how are we looking?

Um... yeah, sorry. I'm crufting the message now.

We should have a live acquisition soon

so we can track all communication.

Okay, get on it. Roy needs you switched on, all right?

Yep.

The pain's starting to kick in.

Ah.

Let me... take a look at it.

No, mate.

[PHONE RINGS]

All right, I'm in.

- She's getting a phone call. - [DESHAWN] No caller ID.

- [MACKEY] Lock on the number. - Yeah, I'm working on it.

Like she's expecting the call.

[PHONE RINGS]

We can't rely on the feed. We need to get ears in there.

- [MAN] Why'd you run? - Why do you reckon?

Call's coming in from 14 Shehadie Street, Pyrmont.

- Is that far? - Five minutes.

Go. Go!

[MAN] Got the money?

[LOUIE] Safe here with me.

Stashed under the counter.

- We can still do this. - How?

There's cops everywhere.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

[MAN] No, no. You still got the vest?

Cops'll do whatever you say.

[TIRES SQUEAL]

- Louie? - What?

Vest gets you what you want.

You ask for a chopper, we'll sail right outta here.

- You got it? - Got it.

Keep the feed going. I'll be watching.

[DESHAWN] Left here.

[TIRES SCREECH]

[DISCONNECTION TONE BEEPS]

[BLUE] All right, I've almost got the feed from the CCTV.

- [TENSE MUSIC] - [BLUE TYPES AND CLICKS MOUSE]

[MUFFLED RADIO CHATTER]

Thank you.

[KNOCK AT DOOR]

They just wanna know your demands.

Must be a reason for all of this.

[BLUE] CCTV feed's up.

[HELICOPTER WHIRS NEARBY]

[EXHALES CALMLY]

- Hello? - [JD] Hey, Louie.

I'm JD. All right, I'm with the police.

I'm here to find a way through all this

so that no one gets hurt, okay?

Especially you, Louie.

So what are we doing here, huh?

How'd you end up with that IED strapped to your waist?

Long story.

All right. Let's start at the beginning, shall we?

- Yeah, nah. - Okay.

Are you armed?

Are you carrying a gun, Louie?

Robbed a bank, didn't I?

Did you shoot that cop?

Louie, you still there?

I need a chopper.

A big-ass chopper.

And I need it tanked up out the front before I let anyone go.

Okay. It will take a bit to organize that.

- Lot of hoops to jump through. - Then you'd better get cracking.

And while you're at it, I wanna speak to the Health Minister.

[JD] The Health Minister?

- Okay. Why is that? - None of your business.

And some painkillers.

[WOMAN WHIMPERS]

[SIGHS] What?

I'm supposed to pick up my daughter from day care soon.

So?

We need to be there. She gets super scared when I'm late.

Well, tough. You're gonna be.

Sorry.

[DOG WHIMPERS]

[KNOCK AT DOOR]

[EVIE] Fiona Hall?

Constable Evie Cooper.

We'd like a word, if you don't mind.

- Are you okay, Ms. Hall? - How do you reckon I'm doing?

I've been speaking to cops all morning.

- I understand. - Do ya?

I woke up to that.

She won't answer my calls.

That's my daughter.

She's 15! She should be at school!

I know you must be worried as hell right now.

We are too. That's why we're here.

You need to help us help your daughter.

She wasn't alone, Ms. Hall.

We're trying to figure out who put her up to this.

Do you reckon I would help my baby girl

put that... that thing on?

Someone did. We need to figure out who.

[PHONE RINGS]

What have you got for me?

We need the cop's body-cam footage.

- Somewhere private we can talk? - Right here is fine.

Why don't we step out into the foyer?

After you.

[DOOR CLOSES]

Your daughter robbed a bank, Ms. Hall.

That takes planning. Money. Resources.

I'm Deshawn.

- Casey. - Casey?

That's a beautiful name. Nice to meet you.

You, um... You're not at school today?

Been a bit sick.

Oh. Well, that's no good.

[MACKEY] A policeman is dead. We know she had help.

Who does she usually hang out with?

She knows this person, Ms. Hall.

Did Louie give you any hint she was planning this, Casey?

It's a serious jam she's in right now.

You're a smart kid.

You can see how this could end up going down, can't you?

We wanna get her home safe, but we need your help.

Look, if you know anything, anything at all,

the smallest detail could save your sister's life.

I heard her talking on a payphone

at the 7-Eleven two days ago.

Oh. Talking to who?

A guy called Stone.

Okay. Stone who?

Just Stone.

Did Louie tell you how she knows this Stone guy?

No.

Oh. You have a beautiful daughter.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

[WEAPON CLICKS]

[CATH] There.

[CATH] Definitely something in her pocket.

[JD] Yeah, that could be a vape for all we know.

Come on, JD. She robbed a bank where a cop was shot dead.

- Cath. - And has an IED strapped to her.

Cath, don't go there.

She's ticking all the boxes. I've gotta go there.

I need three markers to initiate

use of lethal force and she's ticking all three.

She hasn't directly threatened the lives of the hostages.

We don't know if the bomb's real.

We don't know if she actually shot that cop.

We don't know if she's packing.

She is 15 years old, for God's sake.

[DOC ROY] Just let me help you, please.

For purely selfish reasons.

- Ah, easy! Ow! - Don't wriggle.

I'm going as gently as I can.

- How's it look? - Mmm, it's not great.

Uh, this is a gunshot wound, huh?

Can't see the bullet. Might just be shrapnel.

But you've gotta get to an ED,

then go on a course of antibiotics.

Can I just...

[BREATHES SHARPLY] Ah!

...ask how you got this?

- A guy with a gun. - Ah.

A guy... you know?

[LOUIE WHIMPERS]

Shh...

Did he... make that?

You're still talking to 'em, aren't ya?

[KNOCK AT DOOR]

You. Open it.

- Hey. Hey! - [DOGS BARK]

Everybody, get down.

I don't wanna see anybody moving.

[DOG WHIMPERS]

- Don't see no chopper, JD. - [JD] Ball's rolling.

Just waiting for the okay from Air Traffic Control.

Hand me the meds.

No sudden moves or else.

[SNIPER] I have eyes on the detonator.

It's not wired in.

Doesn't look like she's using a dead man's switch.

[JD] How did you build that device, Louie?

Put that on yourself or someone help?

Person you robbed the bank with...

...they fix it up for you?

He's the guy you were calling earlier.

JD, yeah.

You're a cop?

I thought you said you were a doctor.

- I'm sort of both. - We work together.

Hey, listen. I gave you the meds, okay?

How about we let some people go, yeah?

Do you think I'm stupid?

I think you're in over your head, Louie.

[LOUIE] Get outta here.

Don't wanna talk to you again

till I've spoken to the Health Minister.

I have a clean shot.

Do I have a green light?

Ma'am, do I have a green light?

Stand down.

Stand down.

[LOUIE GRUNTS]

The hell was that?

Were you not listening?

I could ask the same question. This morning, we had a deal.

Yeah, that was before you decided

to take out a 15-year-old kid.

I hadn't decided yet, but regardless,

it's my call to make.

It's my job to minimize casualties.

I don't want any casualties!

And if she hits that button now?

[CLICKS MOUSE]

[FOOTSTEPS APPROACH]

[MACKEY] What have you got?

- Uh, the sister has AML. - [EVIE] AML?

[MACKEY] An aggressive form of leukemia.

Affects the bone marrow and the blood.

Damn! She's gonna be okay?

- [BLUE] She's relapsed. - But she's gonna make it, right?

- She's... - Dying.

[PHONE BUZZES]

JD speaking.

Hey, the kid's little sister has leukemia.

Looks like it might be end stage.

Right. Explains the Health Minister.

- Progress on that front? - Yeah.

I spoke to the Department Secretary.

He wants to know what Louie wants to talk about

before he refers the matter on to the Minister.

[MACKEY] Ass-covering.

Boss, we've got a hit on the guy the sister was talking about.

[MACKEY] He was at the café earlier. You got an address?

Unit block, corner of Gillen and Livingstone.

Okay. We just got a break on a guy called Stone Matthews.

Hang tight while we pick up that son of a bitch.

[MACKEY] Deshawn?

[GIRLS SING] ♪ You know you wanna be together ♪

♪ And I wanna spend the night with you... ♪

[INTENSE MUSIC]

[OFFICER 1] Clear.

[OFFICER 2] Clear!

It's all clear. Suspect is not on the premises.

- What have we got on this guy? - Drug-related charges, mostly.

Meth, heroin, fentanyl.

Deals in Mum's neighborhood.

You think Mom was a customer?

Well, did you see her arms?

[MACKEY] What do you think?

[DESHAWN] Definitely something, right?

Six bucks for a doggiecino?

50 bucks for a doggie pavlova?

Who has that kinda money to spend on dogs?

Who are you people?

You all frickin' millionaires or something?

They're dogs.

That's more money than we spend on our weekly food bill.

- [PHONE BUZZES] - [MUSICAL RINGTONE PLAYS]

I need to take that.

- Too bad. - No, you don't...

...understand - that's, um, my wife.

Sure it is.

Your wife, huh?

Pack Leader?

- That's my name for her. - Whatevs.

- You can speak later. - No, I can't.

- I need to take it. - Yeah?

Why's that?

[DOC ROY] Because...

Because she's got dementia and...

...I placed her into care this morning and I told her

I'd be available night and day to take her calls.

Don't believe ya.

Well, pull the trigger. I'm talking to my wife.

Nice try, pigs. I'm not buying it.

[WOMAN SOBS] Roy?

I don't like it here!

[TENDER MUSIC]

[DOC ROY] Ally, it's me. It's Roy.

[ALICE] Roy, come and get me.

- I don't like it here. - No, I know you don't, love.

I know.

[ALICE SOBS]

Hey, I've got Buster here. Do you wanna say hello to him?

- [BUSTER WHINES] - Oh, Buster.

- It's Pack Leader! Say hello. - Buster? Is that you?

[DOC ROY] Hey, um, we're at the café

and we... we've got our regular table.

The people here won't let me leave.

Please come and get me.

I can't quite come at the moment,

but as soon as I get the chance...

[PHONE BEEPS]

[PHONE BEEPS]

[JD] Hey, mate. I'm sorry about Alice.

Didn't wanna interrupt your call.

Yeah.

I understand...

...dear.

We have the K9 detection unit here.

We need to get a sniffer inside, mate.

Okay, I'll... I'll do my best.

Um...

...I love you.

[LOUIE] Is, um...

Is your wife okay?

No.

Not really.

- I get it. - [SCOFFS]

My sister's not... in a good way either.

[SCOFFS]

Leukemia.

AML.

That sucks.

[GENTLE PIANO MUSIC]

- [JD] Off you go. - Let's go.

- Bring back an espresso, yeah? - [CATH] Make it two.

- [EVIE] Found what? - It's gotta be the money, right?

Must have stashed it somewhere between the bank and the café.

Her sister knows.

She must have sent her the coordinates.

- Search the phone. Find it. - I... I already have.

She must have sent it before she went into the café.

- So find the text. - It doesn't... It's not there.

[SIGHS]

She's using disappearing texts.

So undisappear it.

I can't, okay? What don't you get?

I'm sorry.

It's just the way that this works, okay?

Once it's gone, it's gone.

[DOC ROY] Go get 'em, Bus. Get 'em!

[BARKS SHRILLY]

- [BARKS] - [DOG GRUNTS]

- [PEOPLE MURMUR] - [PATRONS] Shh!

Guys, what the hell? Chill.

Everybody sit back down! Who said you could move?

JD, you there?

Need you to shut that dog up.

Sorry, can't hear you. Say again?

The dog outside.

- [DOGS CONTINUE BARKING] - [DOC ROY] No, no, no.

They just wanna say hello.

Just shut them the hell up.

[DOGS CONTINUE BARKING]

[DOC ROY] Buster, enough. Get here! That's enough.

[JD] Right, dog's in.

You know, if I die...

...Alice won't have anyone.

She won't be able to understand

why no one picks up the phone when she calls.

Look, dude.

- You're not gonna die, okay? - How do you figure that?

This thing's fake.

[WHINES]

'Sup, doggie?

[TENSE MUSIC]

She thinks it's fake,

but it's real.

[OFFICER] Excuse me, sir, this is a no-stand...

- Drop that! - [LOUIE SOBS]

Jesus, what'd you do?

Okay, can we at least agree she didn't shoot the cop?

Doesn't mean she hasn't got a gun.

She still poses an active threat.

[GUNSHOT]

[PHONE BUZZES]

[CHILLING MUSIC]

Hey, kid, come here. I'll make you a hot chocolate.

- I don't like hot chocolate. - Can you just go with me?

[STEAMER HISSES]

You see those guys out there? You see them?

They plan to shoot you first chance they get.

With the live feed, they wouldn't dare.

Cut the live feed and then they will shoot you.

I need a half-hour, max.

After that, I'll walk out, hands in the air.

You don't have a half-hour

with that bomb strapped to your vest.

- I told you about that. - Yeah.

Old mate, he packed that vest, didn't he?

- For all you know, it is real. - It's not.

What if it is?

What was the split? What was it gonna be?

50/50.

If that bomb's real, what's his cut then, do you reckon?

[TENSE MUSIC]

[PHONE RINGS]

[PANTS]

- [STONE] I wanna see the money. - It's here, safe as.

I need to see the money. Show me the money!

- What for? - Hold it up so I can see it.

Ooh!

You playin' me?

Are ya?

Are you forgetting what you're packing?

- It's not real, but. - Oh, isn't it?

What do you think that phone tucked inside your belt is for?

But you... you said it was fake!

[STONE LAUGHS] Yeah!

Otherwise you wouldn't have let me put it on you.

All it takes is one phone call

and wooshka!

[LAUGHS] See ya!

Go on, then. Blow me up.

You'll never see your money, then.

- Yeah, don't push me, kid. - Go on.

- Okay. - Do it. Do it! Do it!

- [STONE] Don't push me. - [PATRON WHIMPERS]

[LOUIE] That's what I thought. Got nothin', do ya?

Hero to zero.

Ba-bow.

Lose my number, dickhead.

Please. Let us go.

Please.

I'm begging you.

Come on, kid, it's time to call it. Let these people out.

- He's bluffing! - No, he's not.

That's what the dog is for.

It's trained to sit when it detects a bomb.

Now, let these people go.

Get the bomb disposal people in and defuse that.

The money's my insurance! Till he gets it, we're safe!

- Do you really wanna risk that? - Shut up!

- These people have families too. - Shut up!

- Just shut up! - [PATRONS EXCLAIM]

[LOUIE] Just shut up!

Shut up!

Suspect now has a gun and is threatening hostages.

If the shot presents, take it.

[PHONE RINGS]

[JD] Hey, I need you to get Evie or Deshawn

to pick up the sister

and bring her here, okay?

Go. Go, go!

[TENSE MUSIC]

- [EVIE] Hello? - [WOMAN SOBS]

- Ms. Hall! Are they still here? - [FIONA SOBS]

Where's your daughter, Ms. Hall? Where's Casey?

He's got her! He's got my Casey!

[SOBS]

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATION]

Seems I missed a team meeting I wasn't invited to.

You're outta time.

- Don't do this, Cath. - I've got no choice.

Of course you have a choice.

Whoever built that bomb

should be our only concern right now.

We've gotta set up a geofence.

If we can jam that signal, we take Stone out of the equation.

Then we deal with Louie.

You know how it works - you wanna jam the area,

you gotta go all the way up the chain first.

So what are you still talking to me for?

What are we doing here?

- We need to help my girls. - Sit down, Ms. Hall.

[EVIE] Time you started sharing with us.

[FIONA] I've told you everything I know.

[MACKEY] We found your fingerprints

all over Stone Matthews's apartment.

On the sewing machine in particular.

He's your dealer, isn't he?

You made the bomb vest.

I made it for me, didn't I?

You were gonna rob the bank?

It was supposed to be tomorrow.

Louie jumped the bloody gun.

She must have gone to see Stone behind my back.

Why would she cut you out like that?

Because she knew that I was getting cold feet.

Knew that I wouldn't go through with it.

Because I'm useless.

- What's the money for? - For Case!

These new cancer drugs you can't get in this country,

it's 45 grand a pop!

I... I didn't know it was real.

You have to believe me.

I made the vest

but he made the bomb.

No one was supposed to get hurt.

You wanna fix this?

Talk to your daughter.

Get her to let the hostages go and the bomb disposal in

so they can defuse this thing.

[PHONE RINGS]

- [LOUIE] Mum? - What are you doing, bub?

- The bomb's real, Mum. - [FIONA] I know.

He lied to both of us.

- You shouldn't have... - Don't worry about that now.

Casey needs you. It's better this way.

This has to end now, bub.

Let go of the hostages.

I'll face whatever comes next with ya, I swear.

[LOUIE] Nah.

Not yet.

I've thought this through, Mum.

- All I've gotta do is... - He's got Case.

What?

What are you saying?

Mum, what do you mean he has Case?

- [PHONE BEEPS] - Why would he do that?

Another call. Mobile this time.

- Bubby? - 'Bye, Mum.

- No, no, no. Don't go. Don't g. - [HANGS UP]

[WHIMPERS]

[STONE CHUCKLES] I've got something of yours.

Yeah.

Say hello!

- [GASPS] - [DOC ROY] Shush, shush, shush.

Kid. Look at me, look at me.

We're gonna get her back, I promise.

This... this is what we do.

What you gotta do is you gotta trust me.

[STONE] You've got something of mine, don't ya?

Send me the address where you've stashed the cash.

Send it so the cops can't see it...

...or I'm gonna hurt her.

Okay?

Hey, asshole.

When you're done picking on kids with cancer,

come down here, have a crack at me.

I dare ya.

[LOUIE] Okay, I'll tell you.

Just leave Casey the hell alone.

I don't want Casey!

I don't want Casey! I want my money!

Where's my money?!

[DOC ROY] No, kid. No.

You give him the money, we all go boom.

I've got no option.

Louie, no.

- No. - [PHONE CHIMES]

[JD] Okay, get that fence up.

As soon as he has the cash, he's gonna trigger that bomb.

What?

- The hospital's a block away. - So?

Jamming the signal will take the whole tower out.

[JD] So what?

What, people can't check their emails for an hour?

- HQ have denied our request. - They what?!

Have you explained the situation that's going on right now, Cath?

It's an order. Straight from the top.

No fence.

What the hell? What was that she sent?

It's the location of the money, most likely.

- [COMPUTER BLEEPS] - It won't... It's not...

It's not gonna open. It won't... Excuse me!

Where are you going?

- [RAPID FOOTSTEPS] - Blue?

[DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES]

[MUTTERS] Probably Roy's.

More graffiti.

Probably Evie's.

- [MACKEY] Blue? You in here? - [DOOR OPENS]

I need you back on deck, soldier.

[BLUE] Why?

Why, what's the point? I mean...

Once he gets the cash, he's gonna blow them all up anyway

and Roy's gonna die and there's nothing that I can do.

Sure there is.

You can stay in the fight.

It's what we do.

That's the gig.

[DOOR CLOSES]

[SIGHS]

[GIRLS SING] ♪ The night with you

♪ Yeah, yeah

♪ With you...

[DARK MUSIC]

It's been staring at me the whole time.

[VIDEO PLAYS]

♪ With you...

[BLUE] Wait for it. Wait. There.

Okay, on her meds bag, there's a tracking tag

so she never loses her stuff.

So because we have her phone, we can...

- You can... - Yep, yep. Let's gear up.

Evie, you drive.

- [TENSE PERCUSSIVE MUSIC] - [EXHALES HEAVILY]

Out!

[SIREN WAILS]

[TRACKER BEEPS REGULARLY]

[MACKEY] We're closing in on Stone.

I need to know you have that jammer up.

- [JD] Yeah, having some issues. - [MACKEY] Well, fix 'em.

You know how this plays out if you don't.

[SIREN WAILS]

[CATH] What are you doing?

[JD] They used to call it 'showing initiative'.

They'll hang you out to dry for this.

So I'll take my chances.

[DEVICE WHIRS]

4-3-3 hertz.

[SIREN WAILS]

[SIREN WHOOPS AND STOPS]

Freeze! NCIS.

[DESHAWN] I've got ya.

Stay back! Stay back!

Keep your head down. You okay?

- JD, how we looking? - [JD] Having some issues.

[THUMPS DEVICE]

Come on, you bastard!

You come any closer, I press this, she goes boom.

- [THUMPS DEVICE] - You bastard!

[MACKEY] Talk to me, JD.

- [DESHAWN] I've got you. - [STONE WHISPERS] Hey.

Say goodbye to your sister.

Don't listen to a word. Don't listen.

JD, we good?

[PHONE RINGS]

- Sarge? - Jam is up. We're good.

[MACKEY] It's over, Stone. Your phone's jammed.

Don't do it.

Wait. I got you. Come on.

[PANTS]

- [EVIE] We got him. - [SIGHS DEEPLY]

[POIGNANT MUSIC]

Hold on, hold on. Here we go. I got ya. I got ya.

[PATRONS CHATTER ANXIOUSLY]

[DOC ROY] Yep, yep. I'll... I'll let her now now.

[DOC ROY HANGS UP]

- They got him. - Casey?

Safe and sound, and they're bringing her here now.

- You need to leave too, mate. - Yep.

Don't do that!

[DEVICE BEEPS RAPIDLY]

[LOUIE] What? What's happening?

[DOC ROY] Stay still. Don't move, kid.

- I told you to go. - Please don't go!

I'm not going anywhere,

but you have gotta do exactly what they say.

I need you to stay still, okay?

We're gonna feel around for some wires. Super still now.

Hey, Louie. Louie.

Now, you pretend I'm the Health Minister

and that's my chief of staff.

Come on. Now, what did you wanna tell me?

[BEEPING CONTINUES]

Oh, come on, kid! Go me! This is your big chance.

[SCOFFS]

And what have you got, huh? Ba-bow! Nothing.

I cannot believe it.

[LOUIE] Never replied to my letters.

What kind of dick doesn't reply to

a kid's letters about her dying sister?

[DOC ROY] You know how many letters my department receives?

Standard bullshit replies.

One stroke of your pen, bro.

Ministerial discretion or some crap?

All it would have taken for us to get the drugs.

[WHISPERS] Can't find the detonator.

And these drugs, they're not available on the PBS?

Nuh.

If - if-Casey gets these drugs,

you tell me, what are her chances?

[BEEPING CONTINUES]

If she doesn't get 'em, there's...

...there's nothing else to try.

So... I'll take those odds.

[BEEPING CONTINUES]

It's not Casey's fault we didn't have the money.

[BEEPING STOPS]

We're good, guys.

What?

It's over.

[DOC ROY] Uh, somebody better get an ambulance.

Empty.

[TENDER MUSIC]

[FIONA] Louie? Louie?

Oh, my God!

[FIONA SOBS]

[DOC ROY] What'll happen to her?

She robbed a bank where a cop got shot

and took a café hostage with a bomb and a gun.

Which was unloaded.

She's 15.

She had her reasons.

[JD] Yeah, either way, she'll do a stint in juvie.

Course, if there's someone with some integrity

that can vouch for her...

Oh, bugger. Know anyone?

Sure you're allowed?

I reckon Rosie'll forgive me.

[JD CHUCKLES]

- [SIGHS] - Outta beans, huh?

- [JD SIGHS] - You take half-and-half?

Why, will that make it taste better?

It's been sitting out all day.

Brewing, yeah.

It's not wine. It doesn't get better with age.

Quit being such a snob.

[JD SIGHS]

Those were some maverick moves out there today.

Mmm, I've been hanging out with you too long.

Way too long -

they're talking about hitting me with disciplinary charges.

[MACKEY] Oof! Been there, done that.

Comes with the territory.

[JD] Might have to undergo retraining.

[MACKEY] What about Welsh?

Bit of co-disciplinary action?

[JD] Mmm.

More than ancient history, huh?

Yeah, bad sort of retro rebound move

that should never have happened but seems to keep happening.

Explains the bedhead.

[JD] Mmm.

I thought you were married.

Yeah, I am.

And I'm not.

Divorce is still going through.

[MACKEY] Sorry.

Kids?

Yeah, a boy. [CLEARS THROAT]

Few years younger than Louie, actually.

Kept that to yourself.

Yeah. Did, didn't I?

[MACKEY] It's the gig, right?

What we see...

You wanna protect your family from what we know is out there.

Speaking from experience?

[CHUCKLES]

Do I look like I have time for a family?

[WARM MUSIC]

All that... [SCOFFS]

...and the kid... didn't even get the meds.

- Didn't I tell you? - Hmm?

The live feed went viral and someone

launched a GoFundMe campaign, raised a bunch of cash.

- Oh, yeah? [CHUCKLES] - Yeah!

Who was the someone?

- I don't know. - Mmm.

But I do know that

Deshawn emptied his bank account into it.

$7.50 in bent coins is gonna make a lot of difference!

[CHUCKLES]

[TENDER MUSIC]

[DOC ROY] Um...

I appreciate the lift, Bluebird.

I can give you a lift home too if you'd like.

No, no, I'll...

- I'll get a cab. - No, there...

There's no point, though, if I'm here, right?

It'll give me a chance to catch up on some podcasts.

So go on.

Go see Pack Leader.
