ROSA: Who are all these people?

That's our...

and now your family, Rosa.

- Anastasia Kolcheck...
- (CHUCKLES)

...will you marry me?

Of course I will.

I'm just doing the best I can
to take care of you.

I don't know how long I have, but

I'm gonna live it

as full of life as it can be.

I want that, too.

(SIREN WAILS)

- Out of the car, now!
- Hey, whoa.

- (GRUNTS) Hey!
- WOMAN: Stop!

I have heard stories of lost pets

traveling thousands of miles
to find their way home.

You and I need to have a chat.

- Where is she?
- Let's just say that her great

white whale hunt went south,

and now some others are paying for it.

Hopefully, she'll be able
to pull another rabbit

out of her hat.
She does have a knack for it.

And if she doesn't?

ANNA: It's your move.

I know, I know. Don't rush me, please.

It's been ten minutes.

I'm thinking.

Yeah, I can smell the rubber burning.

You know, the problem here
is your father

insisting on bringing two dates.

I mean, who-who does he think
he is, Hugh Hefner?

Hugh was his hero,

until they banned him
from the Playboy Mansion.

Shocker.

There was an incident...

I-I don't need to hear the details.

- ...in the grotto.
- What-what did I just say?

I don't want to think about your
father in the Playboy grotto,

and...

now I can't stop thinking about it.

Thank you very much.

It was their Halloween party.

Please stop.

(CLEARS THROAT) Okay. So...

You don't want to know
what his costume was?

No.

It was pretty bad, wasn't it?

(CHUCKLES)

Let's just say it was peak Britney era

and there were heels

and a live boa constrictor involved.

- (CELL PHONE BUZZING)
- Oh.

Thank you, God. (CLEARS THROAT)

Hello?

Yes?

Oh, no, is-is everyone all right?

Okay, um... I-Is there a backup plan?

No, no, o-of course. No, I understand.

Thank you.

We... (CLEARS THROAT)

...we just lost our band.

Two of the members, they were
involved in a car accident.

They are going to be okay, but...

but they can't perform. (SIGHS)

We should've hired that wedding planner.

No, I-I would have sh*t myself by now.

(SIGHS) No, come on,
she-she wasn't that bad.

She's... paid to be... perky.

Way too much perk.

Look, honey...

Come on.

Just breathe.

- Okay?
- Mm-hmm.

It's all gonna work out.

I promise you.

It always does.

Besides, I've been to the gym

twice already with Arkady this week.

Seen inside Arkady's gym bag.

Cigarettes and a flask aren't exactly

the building blocks of a tough workout.

Come on, let's go.

You do know that elder abuse is a crime.

And what would you call those drills

you put me through when I was a kid?

- Character building.
- (CHUCKLES)

Child protective services

would describe it differently. Come on.

Do you think you really
could've gotten through

BUD/S training otherwise?

Probably.

You got a healthy imagination.

(LAUGHS) You know what?

You're right. I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to push.

You're getting too old

There is no rule 113.

Don't pop me.

I don't, I don't want none.

Huh? Pop, I don't want...

Pop, I don't want any problems.

Huh? Huh?

- Sting Ray don't play.
- (LAUGHS) Okay.

I don't want none of the Sting Ray, Dad.

Done with this? You're done with this?

(CHUCKLES) You were the one that said,

"It's not camping without s'mores."

And that's a fact.

DEEKS: Yeah, but you forgot
the marshmallows. So, s'mores

without marshmallows is just... "sores."

What?

Really? That's a, that's a dad joke?

You told me to call you out.

Yeah, no, that's what love looks like.

- Touch.
- Wow. Okay, well, anyway,

I brought the graham crackers

and the chocolate.
Somebody dropped the ball

ON THE MARSHMALLOWS. (WHISPERS): Him.

Well, I agree with Kensi,

it's not camping without s'mores, so

- we're gonna need to go camping again.
- DEEKS: Fine!

We'll go again. I love that.

- We should do it soon.
- Deal.

Well, I got to go right now

if I don't want to miss the first bell.

- DEEKS: Okay.
- Hey, wait, wait, wait. Here.

Okay. I love you. Have fun.

- Bye.
- KENSI: Love you. Bye.

DEEKS: All right, today is a good day

for a great day. (LAUGHS)

- Have fun storming ze castle!
- ROSA: Will do.

(LAUGHS)

I'm happy, too.

Yeah, but happy
and fulfilled and grateful.

I just want to remember
this moment in time.

Okay, well, don't let Kilbride hear you.

You know how he feels
about mindfulness practice.

You sound like you're feeling better.

Do you want me to make you
some breakfast?

Ugh, no.

Not until your shawarma exits my body,

which should be any day now.

Okay, you asked me if my leftovers

in the fridge were still good.

I thought you meant the ribs.
You didn't specify.

Who leaves leftovers
in the fridge for a week?

I forgot.

You know who didn't forget? Me.

You know what? I'm gonna leave a Sharpie

attached to the fridge, and from now on,

everything gets dated,

and if it's more than
48 hours old, tossed.

48 hours? Think about pizza.
That stays good for, like,

a week... Okay.

- I'm sorry. Yeah.
- You're sorry?

You know what
the doctor said I could eat?

What'd they say?

Rice, bananas... Rice. Mm-hmm.

...toast and applesauce.

That's not so bad. I can
make you a toasted banana,

rice, applesauce sandwich.

To go. Would you like that to go?

You're a cruel man, you know that?

Think you're funny? (SCOFFS)
You're not funny.

I love you.

Babe? Okay.

Stay focused. Stay present.

Maintain good eye contact
and good posture.

I will. I-I always do.

And don't be afraid to
mirror who's ever talking,

okay? And don't fidget.

Have you ever seen me fidget?

Not with me, but if you're nervous...

I'm not nervous,
but you're getting me there.

All right, I'm sorry.

It's just, I know how important
personal presentation can be.

It can sway the jury in your favor.

This is an interview, not a trial.

I know this means a lot to you.

It means a lot to me, too.

I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you.

- That's not true.
- Yes, it is, and we both know it.

Jordyn, you did this.

It was a Rountree team effort.

Just like everything else we do.

All right, I can buy that.

But it's not the only medical school,

- so if they don't accept...
- No, no.

They will.

I-I hope so, but if they don't...

Why are you psyching yourself out?

I'm not psyching myself out,
I'm just trying to prepare you,

so that, if I don't get in,
you don't take it as your fault.

I won't.

I won't.

Say it.

Say, "I promise
I won't mope around for days

if you don't get in."

I promise.

I'm just...

I'm just so proud of you,
all right? Go give 'em hell.

- You know it.

You got this.

♪ ♪

Admiral Kilbride, Kerry Adams,

A*F SAC, Los Angeles Field Office.

Nice to meet you, Agent Adams.

How may I be of service?

- Straight to business. I like that.
- (CHUCKLES)

I doubt that either of us
has time for much else.

Ain't that the truth?

So, we have an agent

who has been under deep cover
for several months now

working a weapons case.

His name is William Newsome.

He's had just
an exceptional career with us.

He is truly one of our best.

Do you think he might be in trouble?

Almost always, but usually
for all the right reasons.

(CHUCKLES)

These m*llitary-grade
weapons and ordnance

are not from shipments
from manufacturers.

They are stolen, but we're
not entirely certain from where,

so I would like your assistance

regarding DoD weapons
and ordnance holdings.

What's your man saying?

He's not.

He has missed three
of his scheduled check-ins,

but he always comes back online,

and he always has a...

seemingly legitimate excuse.

And you think maybe he has lost his way?

There have been rumors,

which I normally wouldn't listen to,

but Newsome,

he's the kind of guy who
dedicated his life to this job,

maybe a little too much so.

He lost a daughter a couple
years back to a drug overdose

and then he got a divorce.

(SIGHS)

- Not an unfamiliar story.
- I know,

but that combined with his recent

change in behavior,

it has me worried.

Admiral, he has intimate

knowledge of our operations

and probably some fellow agents
who are still loyal to him.

What in particular
would you like us to do?

I would like for your people

to see what they can learn,

and I hope I'm wrong.

I do, but if I'm not,

Newsome is a battle-tested,
high-functioning operative,

which is to say he is not
somebody you want to cross,

even for your people.

We'll see what we can find out.

If he's in trouble, we'll help him.

If he's dirty...

well...

let's cross that bridge
when we come to it.

Thank you.

Yes, ma'am.

(PHONE BUZZES)

It's Ops. They sent this to the team.

A*F doesn't have any evidence,
but the SAC

thinks that this Agent Newsome
may have gone rogue.

- So what's the play?
- (CHUCKLES)

Kilbride wants us to keep an open mind,

- but stay on high alert with him.
- Oh, great.

So, work with the guy,

but don't let him sh**t you
in the back of the head.

Yeah, something like that.

That's not an ideal situation.

Not at all.

But if we're lucky,

he doesn't know that
his boss has suspicions.

It'll at least give us
a slight advantage.

And if he does,
it gives us a disadvantage.

Mm, well, hopefully,

we'll be able to read him
when we meet him.

Guy's been undercover this long,

he knows how to project
what he wants people to believe.

Everyone has a tell.

I don't.

Of course you do.

Yeah? What's my tell?

That was it right there.

- I didn't do anything.
- You did this.

(LAUGHS)

I just moved my head.

You tilted your head.

No. That's a look, not a tell.

Well, you could've looked at me
without tilting your head.

You need to give your head a shake

because you're the one with the tell.

- (GIGGLES) Yeah, what's that?
- You just did it.

Yeah, right.

See? You've been doing it
so long, you didn't even notice.

I asked you a question.
I didn't move my head.

You giggled.

- (GIGGLES)
- All right? And that's your tell.

Get out of here. I'm not a giggler.

Of course. Okay.

You're definitely a giggler.

I may have chuckled at the
absurdity of your suggestion,

but that is not a tell.

Whatever you say, Giggles.

- Tilty.
- (IMITATES GIGGLE)

Special Agent Callen and Hanna.

This is Special Agent A*F Bill Newsome.

CALLEN: Our ops center
received the A*F report,

but who are these guys?

Trigger-happy gunrunners
with a drug issue.

That's a good combination.

NEWSOME: Yeah, tell me about it.

I was brought in 'cause nobody
can seem to figure out

who's running this organization
or where they're getting

their m*llitary-grade weapons inventory.

Well, Admiral Kilbride

says we're gonna be
working this together.

We need to work fast.

These guys are about to leave L.A.,

and they have a big stockpile of weapons

somewhere here in town.

They've moved it.

I cannot locate it or their buyers.

They want to offload
the weapons and then disappear.

Yes. That's why I need
to get back there ASAP.

Okay. We'll have two of our agents

provide overwatch for you.

Me and Callen will figure out
who's running this operation

and which U.S. m*llitary base

the weapons are being stolen from.

Copy that.

FATIMA: Hey.

A*F sent over Newsome's reports.

I've been going through them.

All right, cool.

Okay, what's up with you?

Uh, nothing. Let's just get to work.

Okay.

- Well, I think we should start with...
- You know what?

I'm sorry.

I just got a text from my lawyer.

There's been some movement in
my civil case against the LAPD.

He said he'd call me back
when he figures it out,

whatever that means.

Hey, it's gonna be all right.

Yeah.

It's just that Jordyn doesn't
need any extra drama this week.

I know.

Anyways, we don't have anything
on this arms-dealing group?

Well, not nothing.

So, Agent Newsome's been cataloging

some of the weapons
that they're selling.

Mm.

High-grade m*llitary weapons, huh?

Mm-hmm.

You thinking what I'm thinking?

Track down Nina Barnes?

Oh, yeah.

Ah, Agent Blye, Investigator Deeks,

this is A*F Agent Newsome.

Pleasure to meet you, sir.

I hear we'll be your overwatch.

Yeah. I've got no idea
if my cover's been blown.

Well, if it has, we've got your six.

Appreciate that.

Now, the, uh, house

is secured and isolated
here in Malibu Canyon.

You ought to be able to find some cover

and high ground either here or here.

Yeah, I know that area well.

Should we grab supplies?

KILBRIDE: Now, we don't have
much background except that there are

ten bodies tied to 'em.

This guy's got ten bodies on him?

So, no cowboy stuff, Agent Newsome.

If you have any notion

that your cover has been compromised,

you signal Kensi

and Deeks, and then you hit the deck.

I do not need a dead
A*F agent on my watch.

- Copy that, Admiral.
- KENSI: Shall we?

(SIGHS)

CALLEN: Is this really necessary?

I mean, couldn't we
have met her at her store

or at her roach coach?

(CHUCKLES) If you refer
to her gourmet pastry truck

as a "roach coach,"
she's not gonna help us.

Yeah, she's meeting
an angel investor down there.

Her canel s are about to go big-time.

Good for Nina.

All right, let's see
what kind of security systems

you can tap into around us.

Keep an eye on us, just in case.

Yeah, of course. Will do.

- So, I was go...
- So, now...

Go ahead.

(STAMMERS) No, no, you, please.

Please.

Honestly, what I was gonna say
will not be as important

as what you were gonna say. So, please.

You know I hate when you do that, right?

When I try to be polite?

It's a classic Callen stalling tactic.

(SCOFFS)

You think I'm doing the right thing?

Doesn't matter what I think,

or anyone else, for that matter.

But, yes, I think you're
doing the right thing.

What?

Nothing.

Come on, tell me.

Uh... (SIGHS)

It's just, it's just hard
to believe, you know?

G. Callen,

the nomad,

the lone wolf,

the shadow,

about to be a married man.

Yup. (SIGHS)

(CHUCKLES)

Did you plan your wedding?

Are you kidding me?

You knew Michelle.
I was lucky she let me attend.

That woman was nothing
if not a taskmaster.

Wow.

Long time ago.

(PHONE BUZZES)

Oh.

Everything good?

Yeah, looks good.

Remember that clinical trial
I was telling you about

that was showing promise,
might be able to help my dad?

Yeah, something popped?

No, not yet, but they asking
for more information.

They said my dad could
be a good candidate.

That would be great.

Be really great.

Hmm.

ROUNTREE: Yo, Fatima.

Come check this out.

So, I've been looking
into Newsome's finances.

There's nothing out of the ordinary.

I mean, his paychecks come in,

and the money goes out
as soon as he pays his bills.

Mm, I can relate.

But get this, his daughter
is enrolled at Pepperdine,

and there's no financial aid listed,

and she drives a late model Range Rover.

Newsome's salary couldn't cover that.

Nope, and I haven't found
any income listed

for his ex-wife or his daughter
over the past year.

So you think he really is dirty?

I don't know, but if he is
working with these gunrunners,

he's gonna do everything
in his power to protect them

from our team at all cost.

CALLEN: You got your speech written?

It's a work in progress.

Uh-huh.

Just don't embarrass me

- or yourself.
- Oh.

And don't tell the Damascus story.

Damascus story is funny.

Not in mixed company, it's not.

Speaking of which...

(SIGHS) What's up, Sam?

Sup?

Other guy.

Couldn't have done this
over the phone, huh?

I thought you were in intelligence.

He's been under a little stress.

Oh, right, the wedding.

Good luck with that.

You know, I was married four times,

twice to the same guy. You know
what I learned with each one?

That you're a joy to live with?

Don't do it.

But then, of course,
I kept getting married, so

I'm a devil for punishment. (LAUGHS)

You got something for us?

Yeah, your minions filled me in.

This, uh, this group that your
A*F dude is undercover with,

from what I've heard,
these guys are psychopaths.

Make the Wagner fellas
look like Boy Scouts.

You got a name for the leader?

Not yet.

They're, uh, very insular
and run low to the ground.

These guys are like ghosts.

Anybody who gets too close
to 'em usually disappears.

The old Nacht und Nebel.

Nobody wants to talk about 'em
for fear of being disappeared.

And you couldn't have
told us that on the phone?

Maybe.

But then I wouldn't get to see Sam.

- (NINA LAUGHS)
- But you've got nothing for us?

No, not nothing.
Look, the chatter on the wires

is that these guys float above
the law because of primo intel.

Are they working with someone
in law enforcement?

Unclear so far,
but I've got some... (SIGHS)

soft, uh, inquiries out there,

but I'll have something for you
by the time your order's ready.

What order?

The $200 worth of assorted pastry

that you're getting.

And what are we gonna do with
$200 of assorted pastries?

Eat it, give it away, have a bake sale.

I don't care, but this...

this does not come for free anymore.

You gonna slide in
some of that red velvet?

Oh, yeah, yeah.

- You know what else?
- Hmm?

- I got some ladyfingers for you.
- Nice.

(LAUGHS)

CALLEN: Okay.

(LAUGHTER)

(TYPING)

CALLEN: Fatima,
we're gonna need to speak

to a naval ordnance specialist.

Will do.

You think it's odd that
Newsome hasn't asked why

we're backing him up
instead of his own agency?

Maybe he had that conversation
with Kilbride.

Hey, is it something specific
you're looking for?

No, but as Nina tries to figure out

who's running this operation,

we'll come at it from the weapons side.

Copy that.

Next time we are doing this
over the phone. (SCOFFS)

Ladyfingers.

Please.

Whatever you say, cupcake.

(LAUGHS)

DEEKS: Is it almost rattlesnake season?

Isn't it always rattlesnake season?

DEEKS: No, not in the winter.
They're cold-blooded reptiles.

Remember, that's how
I saved Darrel Dinkins

from that boa constrictor
on his neck. Remember that?

- Oh, yes.
- Put ice packs on there?

- I tell you that story?
- You did.

Like 10,000 times.

Yeah. It was a big deal at
the time. Even made the, uh...

Newspapers, yeah. I know.

Mama Deeks also showed me
those clippings

about 10,000 times.

Yeah, but does Rosa know?
Does our daughter

- know the story of my, uh...
- (GROANS)

reptilian heroism?

I really feel like our daughter
doesn't need to know that.

You know, give her a chance
at a better future.

Wow, you are just mean-spirted today.

- (RADIO CHIRPS)
- Go for Kensi.

KILBRIDE: Looking for a sitrep, agents.

Uh, we will be in position
in about 12 minutes.

Anything new to report on Newsome?

Well, Fatima and Rountree
found some questionable items

in his financials, they're
digging deeper into that.

DEEKS: I got to be honest,
he is pretty chill for a guy

in his situation.

So, either he is a real cool customer

or he knows something we don't.

Like maybe these mercs
we keep hearing about

aren't actually a danger to him
because he's in bed with them?

Yeah, but then why would
he agree to meet with us?

Maybe to find out what we know.

Yeah, but that still doesn't explain

why he'd want us on overwatch.

Unless he plans to use you as an alibi.

You think this whole thing is for show?

Could be.

Or a trap.

I have sent Sam and Callen
to speak with his SAC.

Keep your wits about you out there.

- Yeah, will do.
- (BEEPS)

You thinking what I'm thinking?

That Thin Mints are the devil's candy?

What?

That we should find
a new overwatch position

because Newsome's
probably setting us up?

I know what you're thinking now, too.

You're thinking, "God,

"I just feel so lucky that
he's not only my partner

but he's my husband."

Yep. Lucky, lucky me.

Just #Blessed.

Annie, whoa, whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa! I come in peace!

What are you doing, sneaking up on me?

Who's sneaking? I knocked.

You with those stupid ear bugs.

But I was about to s*ab your eyes out.

You called me.

(SIGHS) Right. Right, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry and thank you.

Thank you so much for coming.

All this wedding planning, it's
worse than a su1c1de mission.

Oh, tell me about it.

Sometimes I think the only purpose

of getting married is
to prepare you for death.

What?

Nothing.

No. (CHUCKLES) I was kidding.

(SIGHS WEAKLY)

So, where do we start?

Uh, well, that's the thing, I...

I don't even know.

We lost our band.

That sucks.

Yeah.

But not insurmountable.

I know plenty of musicians.
What about Ivanov?

No.

Smirnov.

No.

Sokolov?

No. No "ovs."

Okay? This is a wedding,
it's not a Maslenitsa.

Everyone dances at Maslenitsa.

It's a pancake festival.

Who doesn't like pancakes?

Okay, you know what?

This clearly was a bad idea.

Of course it is bad idea,

that's what I have been telling you.

You want me to call Grisha?

What? No.

Not the wedding, you idiot.

Calling you for help.

(CHUCKLES) I knew that. I was kidding.

What about Titan? He's very popular.

Everybody can dance.

No, he is a Vegas DJ
who plays major clubs.

He doesn't play weddings.

He will for me.

His real name is Dmitri Sokolov.

I play Durak with his father Aleksei.

He owes me lots of favors.

I mean, hundreds of favors.

(LINE RINGING)

Aleksei. Arkady.

Yeah. (LAUGHS)

It's time to pay back favor.

Yeah, I need your son to deejay

my only daughter Anna's wedding.

(CHUCKLES)

(MUTTERS)

Um... don't worry about the cost.

The kids will work that out.

Yeah, no, of course you can come.

How's new girlfriend? She good?

Thanks, Castor.

If you two already have
some new information for me,

I am going to be very impressed.

We still have more
questions than answers.

I'm afraid that makes three of us.

So, we reviewed Newsome's
files and casework.

It... it all seems very solid to us.

Well, like I told Admiral
Kilbride, he is one of our best.

We still have financial
points of interest, though,

which we're still looking into.

Really? Like what?

Well, it's, it's nothing concrete.

There just seems to be some
extra cash floating around

that we can't locate
the income source of.

- Wow.
- But, that being said,

we don't completely
understand what triggered

your initial suspicions of Newsome.

Which is my partner's
polite way of saying

we think you're holding out on us.

I'm sorry you feel that way.

Well, then you can make it up to us

by giving us everything you have.

Which is my partner's
not so polite way of saying

we understand that you want to protect

the reputation of the agency,

but if there's any other A*F personnel

that may be helping Newsome,
you need to let us know.

Okay, yes, my number one concern
is protecting my people

and the agency,
but I assure you, if I knew

of such individuals,
I would have told you.

It's one of the main reasons
I reached out to the admiral.

Look, I hate to say this,

but these guys that Newsome's tracking,

they've somehow managed to stay
about three steps ahead of us.

And if it's not Newsome,
I don't know who else it is.

Well, it could be it's not A*F.

Several of Newsome's operations

were joint ops with local
law enforcement, correct?

- Yes.
- So it could be a dirty cop,

it could be someone from another agency.

(PHONE BUZZES)

It's the major. Excuse me.

Unrelated to this case.

(SIGHS)

Dad, we got to talk fast.

I'm in the middle
of something important.

RAYMOND: Well, good. I don't
feel like working out today.

My shoulder's acting up.

All right, that's fine.
We-We'll talk about it tonight.

Okay.

But I'm not working out today.

I'm going to go home.

Dad, where are you?

Oh, I came to the park,

but I'm not working out today.
My shoulder's too sore.

Dad. We already worked out this morning.

You punched me in the head, remember?

What?

How did you get to the park?

I walked. And that's enough exercise.

Okay. Okay. Okay, I'll tell you what.

Why don't you just find a seat

and I'm gonna come give you
a ride home, all right?

I don't want a ride home.
I like walking.

Dad, please stay put.

I'll be there as soon
as I can, all right?

Hello?

(LINE BEEPS)

(SIGHS)

Find any needles in that haystack?

No, but I figured out
how Newsome's daughter

is paying for college.

Proceeds from stolen weapons?

Her grandfather set up

a college savings account
for her when she was born.

Good for her, bad for us.
Puts us back at square one.

Yeah. And Kilbride wants us
to look into everyone

Agent Newsome has worked
with on this case.

I mean, that's A*F,
L.A. Sheriff's, and LAPD.

Yeah.

Damn, haystack just got bigger.

Here we go.

I got two large sprinter vans
approaching.

Mm-hmm, just your standard delivery

from your friendly
neighborhood stolen g*ns

and expl*sives store.

That is a very big delivery.

Sir, Commander Collins

with Navy Munitions Command
Pac is online now.

Got it. Put her through.

Thank you for getting back to me
so quickly, Commander.

Not a problem at all.
Good to meet you, Admiral.

Uh, we have been investigating

a potentially large-scale weapons sale.

Yes, sir.

- Your office briefed me.
- Good, good.

Now, we have been focused
on trying to figure out

who's running this operation,
but I wanted to bring you

on board to help us learn more

about the weapons side
of the transactions.

I hope I can be of assistance.

I've looked over this list of munitions

that Agent Namazi sent over.

All of which are stored
in your facilities, correct?

Much of this, yes.

Any idea how these may have
wound up on the black market?

No, Admiral.

But I can guarantee you they
didn't come from our stockpiles.

And how can you be so sure?

Because that's my job and I run
an extremely tight operation.

If a pencil sharpener goes
missing, I know about it.

Well, we're a little bit less
concerned with pencil sharpeners

and a little bit more concerned
with anti-t*nk missiles

and anti-personnel mines.

Now, if these weapons didn't come

from your inventory,
where are they from?

All due respect, sir, I believe

that's your area of expertise, not mine.

We're not the only m*llitary
to employ some of these weapons.

For instance, M240 machine g*ns.

What other m*llitary uses them?

Quite a few.

I'll cross-reference
this entire inventory list

with foreign militaries
and get back to you.

Thank you, Commander.

(PHONE CHIMES)

RAYMOND: I like the sunshine.

It's-it's good for the joints,

- but I do miss the seasons.
- Dad.

I've been calling you.

Well, I do remember the phone buzzing.

I told you not to put it on vibrate.

I get tired of these telemarketers.

Just kept calling.
If I wanted solar power,

I'd call them, you know?

This-this is my son Osama.

Hello. C-Could you excuse us, please?

Dad, Dad, Dad. Dad.

Where's the fire?

What are you doing back here?

You were the one who wanted
to work out, remember?

Dad, we did work out. Remember?

I think if we'd have worked out
this morning,

I would have remembered.

You are working too hard.

You need to slow down. Enjoy life a bit.

Okay.

(CHUCKLING): Oh.

Yeah, we did work out
this morning, didn't we?

We worked out.

A little bit early in the day
for me to be forgetting things.

That's all the more reason for
you to reconsider that drug trial.

They're showing promising results.

For who? For the pharmaceutical company.

There was a doctor on CNN a while back.

He said he would not take any treatment

for his health after 75.
And he was a doctor.

He was never a Marine.

(GRUNTS)

I've never known you to take
yourself out of the fight, Pop.

What's going on?

Okay. What the hell? I ain't
gonna live forever, right?

Hooyah.

Oorah.

(CHUCKLES) Thanks, Dad.

You know, when you were a kid,

after supper, I used to take
you for walks in the park.

Used to try to tire you out
in the, in the jungle gyms

and give your poor mama a break.

(CHUCKLES)

You remember that?

Oh, I remember that.

Yeah, me, too.

(LAUGHS)

Yeah.

KENSI: (SIGHS) You hear anything?

Not well.

They're playing video games.

Speaking of which,
we should get that new Xbox.

(GROANS)

You sure you're okay?

- Yeah. I'm fine.
- Yeah?

You know what? We should
get those full body scans.

What for?

What do you mean "what for"?

Better safe than sorry. We got Rosa now.

Besides the fact the Doomsday Clock

is 90 seconds to midnight.

And do you know what that means?

No. What does a full body scan have
to do with a Doomsday Clock?

Maybe nothing. I'm just saying
that 90 seconds to midnight...

we have never as a human species

been closer to total annihilation.

Well, why don't they
just reset the clock?

You... No, that's...

You can't just reset the clock.

Why not?

Because it doesn't work like that.

Why don't they just unplug it
and stop the countdown?

You can't... You can't unplug it, Kensi,

because it's not an actual clock.

Then if it's not a real clock,

what are you so worried about?

I think I got something.

Sort of.

What do you mean "sort of"?
You got Newsome? What do you got?

No... it's a new player.

And he's heading inside.

Yo. Look alive.

Boss man said the payment just cleared.

We don't even have merch.

(PINBALL MACHINE RINGING)

So, are we his overwatch, or is he ours?

I'm just saying.

(BEEPING)

Oh, my.

What's up?

I just did something
I probably shouldn't have.

You accessed SAC Adams' financials

without a warrant or a subpoena?

I know, okay? It was on a hunch.

I don't know what I was thinking.

Yeah, you clearly weren't.

(SIGHS)

We have to tell the admiral.

We? (LAUGHS)

You.

Great.

SAM: Newsome's boss is dirty?

Yeah. It seems that Special
Agent in Charge Kerry Adams

has been on the take for years.

Unfortunately,
the U.S. Attorney's Office

will be unable to use
this evidence against Adams.

We got an address on her?

KILBRIDE: It was sent to your phones.

We still don't know where
these weapons came from

or where they're going.

But if we can catch her with them,

we might still have a case.

Copy that. We're on it.

(ENGINE REVVING)

(ENGINE ROARING)

(TIRES SQUEALING)

Step out of the vehicle
with your hands up.

Right now, exit the vehicle.

What the hell is going on?

Show us your hands.

Have you lost your minds?

Now!

I can't get to the long g*ns!

FATIMA: Guys, you're outgunned.

You two need to move.
