All language subtitles for NCIS Los Angeles S09 E15 Eng Sub

Previously on NCIS: Los Angeles:

Navy Lieutenant Naomi Elder

was staying with Keith and Lynn Stiger
of Silver Lake.

Uh, she wasn't here.
I didn't see her till dinner.

- Why is this happening?
- Thank you.

I don't know how we'll repay you.

Do we know if this is restricted
to Lieutenant Elder,

- or part of a larger espionage ring?
- This isn't over.

We follow up on every case
and every lead.

- I want out.
- I'll protect you.

I'll help you cut ties
with the North Koreans

and work with Justice
on your incarceration.

No sign of Keith Stiger.

Place looks empty.

Warrant's in. We're good to go.

Single-room cabin.

- Nothing here.
- Looks empty. Moving.

Camera.

It's a cell-phone trigg... Bomb.

- You dropped something.
- Thank you.

Hello.

Operations Manager Lange.
I'm Special Agent Harley Hidoko.

I know who you are, Ms. Hidoko.

Please, don't let me interrupt you.

It's refreshing to see someone take
such pride in the care of their weapon.

Preventative maintenance is
kind of like my yoga.

My yoga generally comes in the form
of a nice single malt these days.

How are you liking
your new duty station?

Los Angeles is great. It's just...

It's a lot bigger than I was expecting.

It's...

I don't know.

- It's a hard city to make your own.
- Yes.

You're from, um, Baltimore,
and that's very different.

You read my file.

Your accomplishments within
the female engagement teams

is excellent.

Thank you.

Are you coming back to work today?

Oh, we were having
such a nice conversation

until you brought up
my uncertain employment situation.

Understood. I'm sorry, ma'am.

In Baltimore,
you had friends and family,

and in Los Angeles, you have...?

I bought a ficus
at the farmer's market.

Aha. Well then,
you have a ficus and me.

I did read your file, Miss Hidoko,

and I am so sorry for your loss.

Your husband was a true hero.

Yes, he was.

- I'm needed up in Ops.
- Ah. Go.

- Thank you.
- Go, go.

- Hello, all.
- Good morning.

I hear that Sam and Callen
got an early start.

That, they did.
They're at the crime scene now.

This is related to the murder
of Lieutenant Naomi Elder, correct?

Yes. The fishing cottage was jointly
owned by two different corporations,

both had ties to Keith Stiger.

The husband and wife
the lieutenant was staying with.

Yup, that's them.

Callen and Sam interviewed
Keith Stiger.

They got an odd feeling.
He might be connected to the murder.

They're looking into it
outside scheduled hours.

- I like that.
- I thought you might.

Well, their hunch was correct.

L.A.F.D. found Lynn Stiger's body
shoved in a closet in this house.

Prelim report shows she was dead
even before the explosion

courtesy of two gunshot wounds
to the chest.

Yikes. So she was shot
and then blown up.

I mean, it seems like a tad overkill.

- Overkilling the...
- Yeah.

You get it? Nothing? Moving on.

We think Keith Stiger
killed Lieutenant Elder?

Or he hired the shooter who did.

Right now the focus is
Lynn Stiger's murder,

which includes bringing in Keith Stiger
for questioning.

If Stiger killed Lieutenant Elder
and his wife,

he knew we'd find
the fishing cottage.

Which means that bomb was rigged
to take us out.

Yes, it was.

Well, we've traced another concealed
real estate holding to Keith Stiger.

This time,
it's a warehouse downtown.

You two, go.
I'll have Sam and Callen meet you.

- Onit.
- Okay.

And be careful. You may be walking
into a similar situation.

- Fantastic.
- Okay.

Of all the alleys in all the towns
in all the world, you wander into mine.

What do we got?

No movement in the warehouse.
Mosley got us our warrant,

and your instincts were right
about Stiger.

Took finding his wife's body

- to prove he's hiding something.
- Hiding what? What's his endgame?

Elder's murder was planned.
Hired shooters, the whole nine.

The fishing shack was
professionally rigged.

But Stiger's a finance guy.

- It doesn't add up.
- It's part of an exit strategy.

The warehouse, place by the pond,
killing his wife,

all planned years in advance.

The lieutenant's murder is
what set things in motion.

Let's find out why
he wanted to kill Elder.

No windows on the ground floor,
only up top, so we're blind.

What do you think about
throwing the long ball, huh?

Easy money.

We'll see.

Let's go.

That's the only opening
and it's not big.

Yeah? Cover me.

- I have to say, I had my doubts.
- It's okay to be impressed.

What are we looking at, Kens?

I don't see any movement.
It looks empty.

No bomb wiring
around the door either.

Ready?

Let's move in.

- Clear.
- We're clear.

Clear.

Clear.

- What do you got?
- Ugh.

Ammonium nitrate.

That's what McVeigh used
in Oklahoma City.

- His truck had 4050-pound bags of it.
- Look at all these pallets.

If this place was filled,
that's a lot more than 40 bags.

- Now we know what Stiger's planning.
- Yeah, a massive bombing.

After that cottage exploded,
he knows we're onto him.

He accelerated his timeline.

Except we don't know where he is
or what his target is.

- What do we have, Eric?
- Still nothing on Stiger's location.

We sent a team to his office,
of course he wasn't there,

but they're bringing in his
two business partners for questioning.

- Kensi and Deeks will meet them.
- Copy.

There's a network of cameras
in the area.

Might show how Stiger moved
all this ammonium nitrate.

I tried to tap into them.
Must be a closed-circuit system.

The feeds would be recorded
at a central on-site location.

You have any idea
where that'd be located?

A security office listed for the building
across from you, southeast corner.

So you have no record
of that name being registered

at any schools in the area?

Okay. Um...

I'm sorry, you know,
I'm gonna have to call you back.

Yeah. Thank you.

Well, Henrietta.

Shay Mosley.
You've sure moved up in the world.

Well, I'm just grateful
for the opportunity I've been given.

No. I meant literally you have come up
directly over my office.

Ah. The construction hasn't altered
your space, has it?

The construction, no. Your stilettos.

Ah. They must be drilling
a hole in your head.

I'll be sure
to have another rug brought up.

- Please, Henrietta, have a seat.
- Thank you.

It appears that this man,
Keith Stiger,

has enough ammonium nitrate
to take down several large buildings.

It's a huge load
to move about the city.

Finding out how they transported it
is certainly the key.

- Indeed.
- Anyway, I came to welcome you.

Well, thank you.

How do you like my team?

I find them extremely loyal to you.

Hetty, I'd like to speak with you
about your role here.

Is it okay if I call you Hetty?

Yes.

I am the executive
assistant director Pacific.

And I was given the task
to run this office in your absence.

You are the operations manager,
which means you work for me.

Well, I... lam. I do.

I just wanna be sure we're not
stepping on each other's toes.

We must define our roles.

And although there may be
some redundancy,

you have to know
I mean no disrespect.

Yes, you do. Just a little.

To answer your question,

I don't know what my role is
going forward.

Well, would you like me
to help you get clarification

from the director or SECNAV?

No. Thank you.
I've already spoken to SECNAV.

- You have?
- Yes.

Ah. And what did she say?

Well, um, she expressed her sympathy
to my recent hardships in Vietnam.

As dol.

Well...

Welcome.

Thank you.

Oh, and do bring up another rug.

Yes, ma'am.

Thanks for showing us
the surveillance room.

Not a problem.
But stop calling it a surveillance room.

Best to set proper expectations.

It's more like a closet
with some old recorders.

Not VHS,
but not of this decade either.

Hard-boiled egg? Bacon?

I'm good. But I think my friend Sam will
take advantage of this mobile brunch.

I'm good.

Okay, but keto will change your life.

- Keto?
- Please don't ask.

- What is keto?
- Ketogenic diet.

I basically eat fat all day
and the pounds just drip off.

I can eat what I want
whenever I want.

In-N-Out Double-Doubles
twice a day?

- Just hold the bun.
- Come on.

- Uh, that's not exactly how it works.
- It kind of is.

It really isn't.
You need discipline and consisten...

- Nah. Not really. It's pretty easy.
- Sounds like a diet I could get behind.

- How long does it take to work?
- Right away.

A couple days
and the LBs just start falling away.

- How long you been on the diet?
- About two years.

Here we are.

Can you hold that for me? Thanks.

All right.

Thanks. Here we are at either
the most low-tech surveillance room

or the most high-tech closet.

All the feeds are labeled by address.

Yup, makes it easy.

Okay. We're looking for the security
feeds from buildings 1992 and 2110.

1992 and 2110, right down here.

- The recorders are gone.
- Any idea where they might be?

They must've been stolen.

Do you have cameras in this room?

No. We should look into that.

Hey, guys. This is Barbara Silva
and Patrick Griffin. Stiger's partners.

- Thanks.
- Good to see you.

I'm Agent Kensi Blye.
My partner, Detective Deeks.

Hi. How are you?

Agent Castor said
you have questions about Keith?

- We do.
- Good, because we've been worried.

We haven't heard from him
in two days.

- Is it rare for him to be out of contact?
- Very. We're a private equity firm,

we work with companies
in the middle market economy.

It's a constant-contact
kind of business.

The three of us are usually
e-mailing and texting

- through Christmas, birthdays...
- Do you know where Keith is?

That's why we need help.
Any friends he might stay with?

No, he was very focused
on his family, and work.

What about local getaways?
Any hotels he likes to stay at?

Keith's not into
the whole staycation thing.

Me neither.
I get time off, I'm heading to Hawaii.

Uh, you mentioned family,
does he have family in the area?

No, just Lynn, his wife.

I assume you've already
spoken with her.

I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this,
but, uh, Lynn was murdered.

Her body was found this morning.

- Oh, my.
- Keith must be going crazy.

He was so in love with her.

Every time he looked at her,
you could just tell, you know?

Mm. I do.

Do you think Keith's in danger?
Could the person that did this to Lynn...?

We don't know yet.

Oh, man.

- You know where his parents live?
- They died when he was young.

He was raised by a wonderful couple,
the Harrells.

They were friends of his parents.

- Do you know how to contact them?
- I don't know where they live.

- Out of state, I think.
- Yeah.

I might have their number
in my phone.

That'd be great, thank you.

No word on how Stiger got ammonium
nitrate out of the warehouse?

No, but the NCIS forensic team
contacted us.

They found major amounts of residue
from two different chemicals

from the Stiger facility.

- They were...
- Nitromethane and Tovex.

Yeah.

Look who always has to be
the smart one.

What was that?

- What?
- What?

- I said...
- You said something?

Yeah. I said, uh, "Book, new,
always has to bleed the smart bun."

Okay. Uh, ammonium nitrate,
nitromethane and Tovex.

The same cocktail
as Oklahoma City.

So, Sam, you were right
about Stiger's plan.

Yeah, but if that warehouse
was filled with this...

It'd be OKC times five.

Huh. This is interesting.

It's in relation to the Harrells,
the couple that cared for Keith Stiger

- after his parents died.
- We have a location on them?

Not yet. But they purchased a house
three years ago,

and it was paid for by a corporation
called Oxnard Seaside Ventures.

Interesting.

That's the same corporation
that purchased the plane tickets.

Jennifer Kim flew into
the United States on.

Hmm, Jennifer Kim.
That tiny female North Korean spy

who kicked Callen's ass?

- That never gets old for you, does it?
- No.

All right, so Stiger was either a spy,

or was somehow working
with the North Koreans.

If he was a spy,
they were playing the long game.

North Koreans placed Stiger
with the Harrells as a child.

There were rumors
that North Korea used

captured American soldiers
to breed spies.

Elder must have seen something
suspicious at the Stigers,

figured out that Keith was a spy.

Jennifer Kim would know
how Stiger was trained,

- who his alliances are in the States.
- Where is she now?

She made a deal
to work as an asset,

and Granger set her up
in a remote location.

We need to get to her fast.

Yes, we do. Stiger is mobile,
and he has everything he needs

to carry out a major attack
on Los Angeles.

Talk to me, meerkats.
What do we got?

Since there's no surveillance footage

in the immediate area
surrounding Stiger's warehouse,

we expanded our search radius.

Looking for vehicles that could carry
that much weight.

There are lots of trucks down there,
but this one has counterfeit plates

and was a half mile out
from the warehouse.

How do we know
it's carrying the chemicals?

The potholes told us.

- What?
- Keep talking.

The truck is traveling
at around 25 miles per hour

when it went over these potholes.

You can see by the way it's moving
the truck is loaded to max capacity.

So it's worst-case scenario
confirmed.

- Yeah.
- If this truck is loaded to capacity

with ammonium nitrate,
nitromethane and Tovex,

it could decimate
several high-rise buildings downtown.

Where is it now?

We tracked it to Little Tokyo,
then lost it.

- We'll head there.
- Great.

We'll continue the search from here.

First they give me Wi-Fi,
and now I get real human visitors?

An embarrassment of riches.

What about friends
in the intelligence community?

No personality. I tried to make friends,
but they aren't having it.

- I take it rural life isn't your thing?
- It shouldn't be anyone's thing.

Humans started out in places like this,
but became smarter and built things.

Like restaurants, malls, theaters.

Nothing says innovation
like a good mall.

So, what brings you two out here?
My next interrogation isn't till Monday.

- We need your help.
- That's what I'm here for.

That's what's keeping me from being
locked away in federal prison.

Mm. Do you know this man?

- No.
- His name is Keith Stiger.

We believe he is
a North Korean spy.

And you thought to yourself, "Hey,
I know another North Korean spy."

- How long has he been in America?
- Since he was a child.

Looks half Korean, half Caucasian.
The plan would've been to raise him

in the States, but with allegiances
and ties to North Korea.

He's American,
doesn't have to fake it like I did.

It looks like he's planning
a bombing here in Los Angeles.

Any idea where we can find him?

How long has it been
since he ditched his cover?

We found his wife's body
this morning.

Coroner said she's been dead
a couple of days.

He killed his wife?

He was activated.

Whatever he's planning
is the culmination of his mission.

By mission,
you mean basically his entire life.

Yeah. He'll be highly motivated
to succeed,

and they'll give him
every asset they can.

- Where do we go to find him?
- There's a network in L.A. in place

to help an embedded spy
when something like this happens.

But I'm gonna need something
from you guys first.

Something more than
no federal prison time

and a beautiful house of your own?

Pizza.

Good New York-style slice.

They bring me groceries,
but I don't cook,

and cold cereal
has grown really tired.

Nell, we're here.

So the truck turned down that
street earlier today, but then nothing.

And I'm not picking it up
on any surrounding streets.

So, guys,
it's gotta still be in that area.

We'll check it out.

We're looking for a giant semitruck
of a needle in a giant haystack.

- Instead of a Prius on the Westside?
- Exactly.

- Think Jennifer Kim's gonna help us?
- Yeah, I do.

She was raised to harm the U.S.
What makes you think she'll help us?

Because it's not really about her.
Granger trusted her, I trust Granger.

Therefore, through proxy,
or transitive property,

I'm on Team Jennifer Kim,
or Team Jen Kim,

because it sounds better
if you put it on a T-shirt.

He really stuck his neck out for her.

It seems that brokering that deal with
the Justice and State Departments

was his primary focus right until, uh...
You know.

Yeah.

Anyway, she double-crosses us,
she disrespects him.

If she does that,
I'll take her out myself.

Fair enough.

We're not seeing Stiger's
massive mobile bomb anywhere.

Yeah, but it's gonna be here.
We're gonna find it.

What you doing here?
I thought you were arrested.

They had no idea who I was.

Thought I was just
another American criminal.

I was released a week ago.

- Hey, were you followed?
- No.

No, I just need some cash
and a clean gun.

You know I need to call in
for verification.

I'm sure you understand.

I understand that you
have never done

any of the things
that I've done for our country.

I understand that you sit here
playing videos games,

handing guns and money
to people that aren't like you.

People that aren't weak
and lazy and scared.

Look, I'll give you a gun and the cash,
but what are you even doing here?

When you were arrested,
you were the last asset,

a target. Didn't you think
we'd have orders to kill you?

I gambled. I'm tapped out.
I need that cash and gun.

Besides, I knew that if you tried
to take me out, I could kill you.

That's fair, I guess.

The last person I heard was killed
was Aaron Kim.

Any other clean-up teams
been sent?

No.

No, look, you gambled correctly.

Your name hasn't come up
as a target, not once.

Any of the newer assets still in play?

Uh, yeah.

Anyone gone under?

I gotta call this in.

- Where is Keith Stiger?
- I don't know.

He went under.
Your job is to know where he is.

- My bodyguard's gonna be back here...
- I only need three seconds to kill you.

Look, Stiger's in L.A.
He's planning something big.

- Help me.
- Hey.

- He's gonna kill you.
- Shut up.

Federal agents.

Guys, I told you I got this.

You're welcome.

You are lower than pond scum.
You turn your back on your country

to work with these pigs?

Hey, hey, hey.

Hands to yourself.

- What is Stiger planning?
- I don't know.

All I know is if I'm taken,
they will have me killed in jail.

You know that. Jennifer, please.

Then give us something. Help us,
we'll see you get put in solitary.

Was this an assignment
or is Stiger working freelance?

- I'm a dead man.
- You might be.

But if you help us,
you may buy yourself time in jail.

All right, look, it's not sanctioned.
What he's planning is freelance.

Why do you say that?

I was told to have him killed
if he surfaced.

He's got a plan of his own.
He recruited men to help.

Did he have anyone fly out
to Los Angeles to help him?

Who is it?

Jin Woo. Through the use of facial rec,
we've been able to determine

that he flew into Las Vegas
from Osaka

under a false name and passport.

He must've driven the rest of the way
to Los Angeles.

Who is he?

We're trying
to put the pieces together.

It looks like he was a member
of a Korean People's Army.

Special Operations Force
that went rogue.

Have the North Koreans tried
to bring him in?

Yeah, but he's avoided capture.

I was searching the area
where we saw the semitruck,

and got a hit on a DWP motion-sensor
camera near the river. Check it out.

- Jin Woo.
- Where are these tunnels leading to?

That specific tunnel is
an out-of-service storm drain

put out of use by the construction
path of the new Metro Rail line.

Well, there it is.
The tunnel allows him to move

through the entire length
of new construction.

Unlike in Oklahoma City,
they might be detonating the bomb

directly under the target.

How is the construction crew bringing
equipment into the tunnel?

Uh, the entrance is right off
Los Angeles Street. Right here.

That could be where
they're bringing the bomb supplies in.

- Two blocks from Kensi and Deeks.
- Get them over there.

And get the L.A.P.D. chief
on the phone.

Copy that.

One, two, three.

- We got two dead security officers.
- Truck.

Yeah.

One, two, three.

One, two, three.

That's not good.

Yes, Mr. Mayor.

I will keep you apprised of the events
as they evolve.

The semitruck was empty.
No explosive material was found.

But tire tracks suggest
they used a Polaris utility vehicle

to haul the materials into
the construction tunnels.

Kensi and Deeks went for their gear.
SWAT is en route, 10 minutes.

- How far out are Callen and Sam?
- Two minutes.

- And the REACT Team?
- Forty minutes out.

Okay, however this thing plays out,
it's gonna be quick.

Yes.

Let's go.

Heads on swivels. We have no idea
how many people Stiger's got here.

Four fuel cans. Twenty gallons' worth.
I don't know if they're empty or not.

There's gotta be more than one Polaris
down here to move all the chemicals.

- I got two men, AR-15.
- Coming to you.

Come in. Do you copy?

Where are they?

Find them right now.

I got eyes on Keith Stiger.

We gotta get him
before he finds those bodies.

They're coming right at us.
Gonna have to go loud.

Federal agents, drop it!

Moving.

- You good?
- Good.

Keith Stiger took his motorcycle
deeper into the tunnel.

- There's no explosives here.
- They're further down.

We gotta move.

Stiger's been hauling explosives
down the tunnel all day.

Any idea what his target might be?

That tunnel runs under three buildings
that are all over 20 stories tall.

Maybe. What else?

They could blow three
or four strategic water mains.

Massive flooding and sinkholes.

Disruptive and mass chaos,
but those are also soft targets.

That's the kind of statement
ISIS would value.

Jin Woo and Stiger
have gone rogue.

I bet that they're looking for
a hard, non-civilian target.

Wait. That tunnel also goes under

the 500,000-square-foot
L.A.P.D. Headquarters.

A symbol of authority in America.
That's it.

Oh, God.

Get me the L.A.P.D. chief
immediately.

- Tell Callen where the target is.
- Yeah. Callen?

Callen?

They must be too deep in the tunnels.
We can't get them any information.

It also means they won't be able
to communicate with each other.

Not good.

Team's comms
are still unresponsive.

And there's no Wi-Fi or cell towers
down there that I can hack into.

What's the SITREP?

The team had a visual on
Keith Stiger, no eyes on Jin Woo yet.

We lost communication
once they advanced down the tunnels.

They have no idea
L.A.P.D. Headquarters is the target.

They know their objective and
they have the training to accomplish it.

So I think we have to leave it
up to them now.

I just spoke to L.A.P.D.,
Homeland, and FBI.

They've set up a command center.
I've staked my reputation on your team.

- As you should.
- You don't ever doubt them?

- No.
- Why not?

Because I handpicked
each and every one of them.

If that's the proven playbook,
then my decision

about what to do with this team
may have just gotten a little easier.

Comms are out. We're too deep.

Gets wider here.
You two take left, we'll go right.

- Do what's needed to take them out.
- Copy that.

That's quite the explosion
they're rigging.

Do me a favor?
Don't shoot that det cord.

- I got Jin Woo.
- Moving.

Move.

Damn it. Cover me.

I don't like knives.
I do not like them at all.

- You okay?
- Yeah. No, I think I just...

I think I pulled a hammy.

The barrels are daisy chained together.
One goes, they all go.

They got motorcycles for an exit.

This is no suicide mission.

They must be putting
a time delay on the Primacord.

I clock Stiger and one other.

There's three bikes.

Shooter.

Cover.

- I got Stiger.
- I got the bomb.

It's over, Stiger.

You should've left
well enough alone, Callen.

Elder's murder was solved.

You did your job,
you didn't have to keep going.

Good job, all-star.

Do not move.

You have options, you know.
We can bring you in to talk.

- You don't have to die here.
- I won't die here.

Never.

Not on American soil.

Sam?

Sam.

Last one. Delay's about to run out.

You guys okay?

- Are we good?
- Yeah.

Well, those are the first bombs
you have correctly disarmed

in quite a while.

Congratulations. Heh.

What'd you do?

What did you do?

You know, got in a knife fight.

Pulled a hammy.

Pulled a hammy.

So Stiger and Jin Woo were operating
independently as a rogue team.

Yes. The bomb materials
have been disposed of,

and Jennifer Kim
is back at the safe house.

Well, it's a pretty good day.
Congratulations.

The team performed today.

Yes, they did.

They worked for you.

They responded to you.

Yes.

Yes, they did.

Hetty, I'm guessing you know why
I was sent here.

I have my ideas.

It's not personal.

It's not an attack on your
accomplishments here in Los Angeles.

You do know that these teams
are never designed

to permanently work together.

I understand.

Team members become too familiar,

walls go down, relationships develop.

Sounds like a family to me.

Good night, Hetty.

Good night.

Haven't heard any big booms.

Guess you guys didn't drop the ball.

Our turn to say thank you.

- Mm. You're welcome.
- You still want your payment in pizza?

Only Mulberry's,
and only their eggplant-parm slice.

- I think we can do that.
- Hmm.

You okay, Sam?

Yeah.

No.

You don't have to answer this,
I don't know how personal it is.

Okay.

Why did Granger go through
all this trouble to help you?

Set you up through
the State Department and Justice?

I think

because he felt guilty.

Granger was a good man,

and I think he knew
he would've been a great father to me,

but he never really tried.

When he left the hospital,
he came here.

Came here to see me.

We talked, I tried to cook,
we laughed.

I got to know my father,
and he got to know me.

It was a wonderful week.

Where did he go when he left?

Come on.

Holly leaf cherry grows wild out here.

Every morning,
Granger would wake up early,

take a short walk around the house
and pick some berries.

He was off his meds,
getting really weak.

When I woke up that day,

I couldn't find him in the house,
so I went outside.

He wasn't where he usually walked.

I don't know why,

but I looked up the hill
at this oak tree.

I found him there.

He died leaning up against the tree.

Looking out at the valley.

I guess I felt like
he should have that view forever.
