Hi, can I, uh... can I help you?

I'm not sure if I have the right place.

A handsome gentleman promised me an evening of romance and fine dining.

Huh, okay, well, I can, uh...

I can definitely help you with one of those.

I hope it's dinner, because I'm starving.

Um, excuse me, Kiani?

I'm sorry to interrupt.

I just need to borrow my son for a second.

Dad, we're in the middle of a practice test.

It's only gonna take a second, come on.

Hey, Grace.

How you doing?

Good.

I just got off the phone with your dad.

Apparently, your grandfather's surgery went well.

Yeah, Danno said he should be coming home soon.

Oh, that's nice.

Well, you just remember our house is your house.

You can spend as much time over here as you want while your father's away, okay?

Thanks, Mr. Grover.

All right.

Come on.

Dad, you know we only get an hour with the tutor, right?

Yeah, I know.

I'm the one that's paying for it, remember?

Listen, Grace seeing anybody?

What?

Look, her father seems to be convinced that she's got a boyfriend on the low, so he asked me to ask you if you've heard anything.

Uh, no.

No, no, sorry.

Hey, whoa, whoa, wait a minute now.

I hardly get to see you anymore.

Come on, now.

Can you find out?

Uh...

What?

Well, it's just that, you know, you--

You want me to be a narc.

Hey.

Narcs are heroes.

Don't forget that.

Okay, well, if Grace's dad wants to know who she's dating, why can't he, you know, just... ask her?

Uh-huh.

So she is seeing somebody.

No, I-I didn't say that, okay?

Again, why can't he just ask her?

Because... he doesn't want her to think he doesn't trust her.

Well, it's pretty obvious that he doesn't.

Stop arguing with me!

You haven't any idea what it's like to raise a daughter, believe me.

Come on, man, you can't do this for me?

We're supposed to be a team.

All right, all right.

All right, my man.

Yes, sir.

Remember this when I ask for the Xbox.

Hey, don't try to bribe the police.

It's a felony.

Well, when I was eight years old, he took me out to Barber's Point.

And that was my very first time.

And you know what?

I caught a six-pound wahoo.

Whoa.

Whoa is right.

But you know what, that fish was a real fighter.

And after a while, I yelled to my dad, I said, "Dad, help!"

You know what he said?

He said, "No way, you're on your own."

That's mean.

I know, right? (chuckles)

But you know what I found out is that he wanted that moment to be all mine.

So I struggled and I struggled.

I yanked and yanked, and then pulled that fish out of the water and brought it onto the boat.

Will you take me fishing someday?

Of course, sweetie.

I would love to take you fishing.

And you know what?

I bet with those strong arms you'd be really good at it, too.

All right, you, story time's over.

Bedtime now, okay?

Good night, sweetie.

Sweet dreams.

Thanks for babysitting.

We had fun.

Though she refused to go to bed until you got home.

Yeah, that sounds about right.

(both chuckle)

I'll take over.

Thanks.

So, how'd it go?

You know, it's hard to say.

I made my case.

I tried to explain that blocking or delaying Sara's adoption was warranted.

The problem is that the court doesn't want to intervene unless there's hard evidence that the child's welfare could be endangered.

Her uncle's phone number was found on a cell phone of a known drug trafficker.

The judge thinks that makes sense, considering the fact that Morales is already a criminal defense attorney.

(sighs)

Every time I tuck her in, I think it might be the last.

When are they gonna let you know?

Most likely in the morning.

(sighs)

But if the adoption goes through, she could be on a plane to Mexico within 48 hours.

Let's hope it doesn't come to that.

Mmm, my brain is telling me to stop, but my stomach's saying, "Keep going."

You should listen to your stomach because we have dessert coming up.

Yeah? What you got?

Homemade Chantilly cake with macadamia nuts.

That is impressive.

I better pace myself.

Hey, I love the new haircut.

Yeah?

Yeah, I do.

I think the bangs are super cute.

Cheers.

Cheers.

I'll go get some more wine.

No, no, no.

You just relax.

You've done enough.

(whispers): I'll be back.

Okay. I'll be here.

(Lynn chuckles)

(cell phone ringing)

Hello?

Woman: Steve?

Catherine?

Yeah, it's me.

Can you talk?

Uh, kind of.

You all right?

Oh, I-I'm fine, I'm fine.

Steve, listen, there's something going on that you need to know about, but, uh, I can't really get into it over an open line.

Catherine, what are you talking about?

I'll explain everything in a minute.

I couldn't decide.

You okay?

Yeah, um... something's going on.

I'm not quite sure what it is.

No, I wasn't, uh...

She just decided to drop in.

"She"?

What's going on?

All right, so, last night, Doris tried to break Wo Fat's father out of a CIA blacksite.

The op went sideways.

(grunts)

Word is is that they're holding her until they decide what they're gonna do with her.

And I'm trying to get more information.

No one's talking, and I don't even know what country the site is in.

Morocco.

I'm sorry?

It's in Morocco.

How would you know that?

Because I've been there.

A couple of months ago, I had a, a sit-down with Yao Fat. And now,

I'm realizing that Doris must have orchestrated that meeting so she could follow me out there and learn the location of the site.

She used me.

We got to do something.

We got to figure a way to get her out of there.

No way.

I know... she has hurt you. okay, but whatever she's done, Steve, she is still your mother.

Then you're gonna tell us where Doris McGarrett is being held.

Steve: Electrified fences.

They got towers at every corner, armed guards, closed circuit security cameras, I mean, this place is heavily, heavily fortified.

Catherine: Yeah.

We can't exactly go in g*ns blazing.

What the hell was Doris thinking?

Well, (scoffs) Doris wasn't thinking.

Clearly, this decision she's made was an emotional one.

Okay, uh... help me out here, 'cause... 'cause I, I don't understand.

On my way in, I hid a small C-4 charge inside an electrical panel.

Copy that. We're on our way.

I was gonna trigger it to create a distraction, get the guards running one way, while Yao and I went the other.

Yeah, that's great, Ma.

I don't think that plan's gonna work now.

No, but if we can get our hands on that expl*sive, we can use it to dynamite our way out of here.

How do you figure?

One level down on the east side, there's an old sewer tunnel that was sealed off years ago.

Goes all the way to the river.

If we can retrieve that charge, we can maybe blast it open.

I figure we'll have 30 seconds tops before the guards show up.
