m*rder and abduction

outside a bar in
Salisbury, Virginia last night.

DOA on the left is Pete Sky,


Missing woman on the right
is Valerie Watkins.

Case is ours 'cause
she's a federal employee,

works for NASA at their flight control

facility on Wallops Island.

Anybody see it happen?

One of Pete's friends, Jud.

He said that Pete and Valerie
were at the bar talking.

They went outside.
He heard two g*nshots.

He ran out with another buddy.

That's when they saw Pete
dead on the ground.

They also saw a Toyota
registered to Valerie

driving away with a white male
in the backseat yelling at her.

Said she looked like she was terrified.

What's the relationship
between Pete and Valerie?

Unknown.

Could it have to do with Valerie's work?

Valerie's cell is off,

and she didn't show up for work today.

And the BOLO is out on the Toyota.

Virginia State Police
are currently searching

the 45-mile stretch between Salisbury

- and Wallops Island.
- All right.

Let's hit the road and get some answers.

You three take the crime scene.

Nina and I will go see
Valerie's coworkers at NASA.

- Hey. Let me see your phone.
- Sure. What's up?

I'm gonna transfer you
everyone's contacts.

Apologies in advance for Ray's picture.

- What?
- This should be interesting.

[LAUGHS]

That's her, but I don't know
what Jud was talking about.

She wasn't hanging out with Pete.

She was trying to get him
to leave her alone.

He wouldn't stop hitting
on her, and it was gross.

So they didn't know each other?

No, but that never stopped Pete before.

He was a pain in the ass,
especially when he was drunk.

We got two 40-caliber shell casings

and the Kn*fe that Pete was holding.

Now, he must have pulled it out
to fight off the att*ck,

but there's no blood on it.

Any luck on video?

So one cam inside got
the two of them at the bar,

but there's nothing here.

I'm gonna check the street cams.

Anything else you can
think of that might help us?

I do remember she seemed nervous.

She said she was meeting somebody.

Who?

I have no idea.

Okay. Thank you.

Valerie is a good employee...

quiet, works hard, just does her job.

Which is what?

IT integration specialist.

She makes sure the software
in our launch vehicles

interface properly
with the payloads we deliver.

Are those payloads
government or m*llitary?

No. We're a third-tier facility.

It's mostly mundane stuff
like weather balloons

and low-orbit satellites
for our private sector clients.

Why do you ask?

Just trying to figure out
if Valerie's abduction

is related to her job.

Can't imagine...

Hi. I'm Special Agent Nina Chase.

I'm Alison.

Thanks for your time, Alvin.

Did you know Valerie?

Yeah, she was my best friend
here at work.

Okay, do you mind if we
ask you some questions?

Sure.

This is Alison. She knows Valerie.

What can you tell us about her?

Well, she's nice, and she's smart,

but she's also kind of private.

So...

Listen, we need to find
Valerie, and fast,

so anything that you can tell us.

It's okay.

[SOFT MUSIC]

She's been going through
a really rough time lately...

money problems, a sick sister,

but mostly her boyfriend, Woody.

Val's been talking
about breaking up with him,

but she's been too afraid.

Is he violent?

I wouldn't put it past him.

Look, I don't know his last name

or where he lives,
but he runs a crab boat

- for some rich guy around here.
- [PHONE CHIMES]

It's called the "Ann Blanche."

Val's always talking about
how bad he stinks.

[CHUCKLES] Excuse me a second.

Hey, Ray. What's up?

Divers found a vehicle
submerged in the pond

right off of Highway 13.

Is it the Toyota?

Yeah, they're pulling in

Look, we're pulling up to Val's

We'll take it, and circle back.

I know cars. It's kind of my thing.

Barnes told me that
Pete was harassing Valerie,

They traced the breach to a Space

You really think it could be them?
These people were chasing...

We can't rule it out, sir.

I mean, it could be
another foreign country.

It could be a bunch of t*rrorists

they're focused on this bird

right here, Sallust 7.

What's it do?

It's an uplink booster.

It's basically
a switching station to funnel

all comms through the tracking network.

In English, please.

If this gets compromised,

these hackers could potentially control
any bird out there.

You take out one GPS satellite,

you lose air traffic control,
marine navigation.

Theoretically, they could
send one into dead orbit,

our recon imagery anywhere in the world.

- It's a diversion.

All right?
There's a hack in progress in the NRO

to try to distract
the staff and pull them

away from their stations.

Hey. No. Hey. No!

No, don't move, don't move!

[g*nshots]

It's coming from over there.

We got another one.

Hana, we got two sh**t now.

Where the hell is SWAT?

They're about two minutes out.

You want me to come up?

No, stay where you are
and focus on the hack.

Tell the director no one else
leaves the building.

We don't want any more targets.

Copy that.

We gotta move.

- You don't wanna wait for SWAT?
- No.

Waiting never works.

We gotta engage these psychos
and take them out.

Miller, you come with me,
and we'll go west.

Ray, take Eskridge and go east.

- We good?
- Yes, sir.

Stay on comms and know your positions.

We don't want our crossfire
making this any worse.

Cover us.

[PHONE RINGS]

Hey, Nina. What's up?

All hell's breaking loose at the NRO.

Two sn*pers are outside sh**ting

- at everybody they see.
- What?

- Where's Remy?
- He and Ray are engaged.

SWAT's on the way,
and there's PD everywhere.

Oh, my God.

And what about the hack?

Well, Hana said that it's still ongoing,

but she doesn't think it's
a big group of people anymore.

It might just be one guy
somewhere with a laptop using AI.

- One guy?
- Yeah.

Well, I might know who.

Tommy Hopkins had a wife, Mallory,

who was m*rder*d last year
by a felon on early release.

He was devastated, so upset.

So was his dead wife's brother,
Noah Caploe.

So I'm looking at a picture
of him right now.

English professor at Colewood College.

Lots of emails between
the brothers-in-law

about the government failing people

and how something
has to be done about it.

I mean, the guy analyzes Chaucer.

I highly doubt that he's
hacking into a satellite system.

Unless he has help. Think about it.

There were six users
in that chat room...

Travis, Millie, the two sn*pers.

Caploe would make five.

And whoever's helping Caploe makes six.

Okay. Where does Caploe live?

Arlington,
but he's gotta be smart enough

- not to hack from there.
- Wait.

Hana said they would need
a powerful enough server.

And who has those?

Colleges.

Colleges.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

Colewood's only three miles away.

- How close are you?
- Two minutes.

Call campus PD and SWAT.

I'll be waiting for you out front.

All right.

Live feed from a satellite owned

Get his ass out of here.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

That the student who did the hacking?

Yeah. Computer major from Wisconsin.

Caploe met him at an
anti-government campus protest

and radicalized him like all the rest.

This obviously wasn't the way
to handle things.

But these people lost a lot...

wife, sister, house, livelihood.

Guess government
by the people, for the people

- wasn't for them.
- Yeah.

Call a lawyer. Write to government.

- Make a stand.
- Yeah.

What they were trying to do
wasn't a statement.

It was a manifesto.

Yeah, it was.

Caploe actually wrote it.

We found this in his office.

"Riot is the language of the unheard."

Are you serious?

Are they really trying to justify
k*lling people by quoting Dr. King?

Okay, well, this has been
a crazy first case.

I'm famished.
Does anybody wanna grab dinner?

Sure.

Don't you have a baby to get home to?

He'll already be asleep,

I could use some food and a drink.

Well...

Med school diet.

They've been running me
pretty ragged lately.

Yeah, I figured as much,

so I got you some mortadella

from Tarantino's Deli.

Slap it on this fresh bread here

with a little Dijon and tomato... mmm.

Thanks.

Too busy for family?

Remy, we're not family.

I barely know you.

I regret not knowing your father.

I wish I knew him better,

but he was my brother,

I'm not gonna make
that same mistake twice.

This isn't about you.

Look, the only real family member

I've ever had was my mother,

important thing in my life.
