Hey, uh, Dad,
9
00:00:16,721 --> 00:00:18,554
what do snipes
look like again?
10
00:00:18,556 --> 00:00:19,955
Ugly.
11
00:00:19,957 --> 00:00:23,058

Run up ahead and see if you can
scare them out of their holes.
14
00:00:26,397 --> 00:00:27,529
But remember,
15
00:00:27,531 --> 00:00:30,299

I'm surprised it hasn't
happened sooner, frankly.

What hasn't happened?
76
00:02:54,812 --> 00:02:56,912
It's an NCIS thing, okay?
77
00:02:57,848 --> 00:02:59,381
You never say "good luck"
in the theater.
78
00:02:59,383 --> 00:03:00,783
You never say
"Hey, good game,"
79
00:03:00,785 --> 00:03:02,317
to a pitcher who's in
the middle of a no-hitter.
80
00:03:02,319 --> 00:03:03,752
And you never,
81
00:03:03,754 --> 00:03:07,289
ever say what you just said
in the big orange room.
82
00:03:07,291 --> 00:03:09,892
Wow. Superstitious much?
83
00:03:09,894 --> 00:03:11,360
These are not superstitions.
They are facts.
84
00:03:11,362 --> 00:03:12,728
Hmm, okay.
85
00:03:12,730 --> 00:03:14,029
Here's a fact.
86
00:03:14,031 --> 00:03:15,397
We probably won't even
get a case today.
87
00:03:15,399 --> 00:03:17,299

Oh, thanks, boss.
92
00:03:25,009 --> 00:03:26,608
You know, Delilah said...
Of course.
93

00:03:31,015 --> 00:03:32,448

99
00:03:39,790 --> 00:03:41,990
Clear my head.
100
00:03:41,992 --> 00:03:44,793
Yes, a breath of fresh air
can work wonders.
101
00:03:44,795 --> 00:03:48,030
Did you know that just listening
to the tree branches rustle
102
00:03:48,032 --> 00:03:49,131
in the autumn breeze
103
00:03:49,133 --> 00:03:51,767
can reduce your
blood pressure
104
00:03:51,769 --> 00:03:53,268
by about ten points?
105
00:03:53,270 --> 00:03:54,903
For me it's all about listening
to the Zen-like call
106
00:03:54,905 --> 00:03:57,206
of a bird.
107
00:03:57,208 --> 00:03:59,675
(imitates birdsong)
108
00:03:59,677 --> 00:04:01,143
(bird repeats song)
109
00:04:01,145 --> 00:04:03,846
That's the warbling vireo,
indigenous to these parts.
110
00:04:05,516 --> 00:04:06,682
GIBBS:
T.O.D., Duck?
111
00:04:06,684 --> 00:04:08,851
Uh, I'm going
to let birdman here
112
00:04:08,853 --> 00:04:10,152
hazard a guess.
113
00:04:10,154 --> 00:04:11,353
He's doing a night course
114
00:04:11,355 --> 00:04:13,288
in the science
of human decay.
115
00:04:13,290 --> 00:04:15,123
It's fascinating stuff, really.
116
00:04:15,125 --> 00:04:19,361
My final essay was entitled
"Decomposition Composition."
117
00:04:19,363 --> 00:04:20,596

118
00:04:20,598 --> 00:04:22,364
Let's see here.
119
00:04:22,366 --> 00:04:25,534
Uh, judging by the minor
putrefaction of the body
120
00:04:25,536 --> 00:04:26,902
as well as the presence
121
00:04:26,904 --> 00:04:28,971
of maggot larvae
on the wound here
122
00:04:28,973 --> 00:04:30,305
and the brown purge fluids
123
00:04:30,307 --> 00:04:33,041
leaking from every orifice,
I would have to say
124
00:04:33,043 --> 00:04:35,043
between 48 and 72 hours.
125
00:04:35,045 --> 00:04:36,778
The bullet pierced
the trachea
126
00:04:36,780 --> 00:04:38,280
and presumably exited
the back of the neck.
127
00:04:38,282 --> 00:04:40,549
And notice
how the extremities
128
00:04:40,551 --> 00:04:41,817
have been eaten
129
00:04:41,819 --> 00:04:43,085
by wildlife.
130
00:04:43,087 --> 00:04:45,888
Fingertips, the ears.
131
00:04:45,890 --> 00:04:47,456
Well, no fingertips, no prints.
132
00:04:47,458 --> 00:04:49,324

They're still

I'll cross-check DMV for

137
00:04:58,202 --> 00:04:59,401

138

in the Persian Gulf during
Operation Desert Shield.
139
00:05:02,473 --> 00:05:05,207
The ship's unofficial motto was
140
00:05:05,209 --> 00:05:07,509
"Defending with Honor."

Bolt-action Winchester,
thirty-ought-six.
144
00:05:12,283 --> 00:05:13,949
Definitely been fired.
145
00:05:13,951 --> 00:05:16,418
Okay. Fired at what?
146
00:05:16,420 --> 00:05:17,886
It is deer season.
147
00:05:17,888 --> 00:05:19,655
Guy's not dressed

148
00:05:19,657 --> 00:05:20,889
Suicide?
149
00:05:20,891 --> 00:05:24,426
Possibly, but the angle
is unlikely.
150
00:05:24,428 --> 00:05:26,628
I don't know.
151
00:05:26,630 --> 00:05:28,697
Maybe he was sitting here,
just thinking about life,
152
00:05:28,699 --> 00:05:30,966
and thought,
"Maybe I can take myself out."
153
00:05:30,968 --> 00:05:32,134
Boom!
154
00:05:32,136 --> 00:05:34,436
Goes right out back
through the neck.
155
00:05:34,438 --> 00:05:37,105
Yeah, and it landed
where exactly?
156
00:05:40,110 --> 00:05:41,577
Hey, boss?
157
00:05:41,579 --> 00:05:44,780
I found the bullet lodged
in this unlucky pine tree.
158
00:05:44,782 --> 00:05:45,914
Dig it out.
159
00:05:45,916 --> 00:05:46,949
Don't damage the bullet
160
00:05:46,951 --> 00:05:48,216
or the tree.
161
00:05:48,218 --> 00:05:49,685
All right.
Hey, McGee,
162
00:05:49,687 --> 00:05:51,486
why don't you do
the digging?
163
00:05:51,488 --> 00:05:53,455
That seems to be
your specialty.
164
00:05:53,457 --> 00:05:55,257
And ruin the manicure?
165
00:05:55,259 --> 00:05:56,491
That's not gonna happen.
166
00:05:56,493 --> 00:05:57,693
Oh.
167
00:05:59,997 --> 00:06:02,331
So if our victim killed himself,
168
00:06:02,333 --> 00:06:05,434
I guess we're looking
at an open-and-shut case.
169
00:06:06,270 --> 00:06:08,103
Quiet day after all.
170
00:06:08,105 --> 00:06:09,271
(phone chimes)
171
00:06:09,273 --> 00:06:11,873
And that should be our I.D.
172
00:06:11,875 --> 00:06:14,242
(muttering):
Unbelievable.
173
00:06:18,682 --> 00:06:20,148
Ow!
174
00:06:20,150 --> 00:06:21,883
Told you, be gentle.
175
00:06:21,885 --> 00:06:24,219
Splinter?
It's like the whole tree went in there.
176
00:06:24,221 --> 00:06:25,454
Look at that.
177
00:06:25,456 --> 00:06:27,422
I better go get
the first-aid kit.
178
00:06:27,424 --> 00:06:29,825
There's a lot of bacteria
in these old tress, Tony.
179
00:06:29,827 --> 00:06:31,893
Might have to amputate.
180
00:06:31,895 --> 00:06:33,929
Well, dots connect.
181
00:06:33,931 --> 00:06:35,197
Car belonged to retired

00:06:37,534 --> 00:06:39,234
63 years old,
184
00:06:39,236 --> 00:06:41,870
formerly assigned
to the USS Buchanan.
185
00:06:41,872 --> 00:06:43,505
Two days ago,
his granddaughter
186
00:06:43,507 --> 00:06:44,973
reported him missing.
187
00:06:44,975 --> 00:06:48,043
Did you say Lieutenant Commander
Runyan Hayes?
188
00:06:48,045 --> 00:06:49,678
You know him?
189
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,980
Jethro, I need a word with you.
190
00:06:53,150 --> 00:06:56,485
I'm afraid I must
recuse myself from this case.
191
00:06:56,487 --> 00:06:57,753
I don't follow.
192
00:06:57,755 --> 00:06:59,988
Well, because I know far more
193
00:06:59,990 --> 00:07:03,659
about this man's murder
than I care to admit.
194
00:07:15,611 --> 00:07:18,111
Did you know, Commander,
that the trees
195
00:07:18,113 --> 00:07:20,247
in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania,
196
00:07:20,249 --> 00:07:24,050
absorbed thousands of gunshots
197
00:07:24,052 --> 00:07:25,986
in the Civil War?
198
00:07:25,988 --> 00:07:28,288
Historians call them
199
00:07:28,290 --> 00:07:29,923
the "witness trees."
200
00:07:29,925 --> 00:07:32,225
Tree's not a witness
unless it testifies, Duck.
201
00:07:32,227 --> 00:07:33,427
What do you got?
202
00:07:33,429 --> 00:07:34,861
Well, Commander Hayes here,
203
00:07:34,863 --> 00:07:38,131
he did not die
of a self-inflicted gunshot.
204
00:07:38,133 --> 00:07:39,266
I know. What else?
205
00:07:39,268 --> 00:07:41,701
Oh, speak to a man
named Todd Bennett.
206
00:07:41,703 --> 00:07:44,070
He's a fireman in
Wolf Trap, Virginia.
207
00:07:44,072 --> 00:07:46,373
That's all I'm gonna to say.
208
00:07:46,375 --> 00:07:49,109
I'm going to call another
medical examiner
209
00:07:49,111 --> 00:07:51,011
to take over the case.
210
00:07:51,013 --> 00:07:53,246
I can't let you off
that easy, Ducky.
211
00:07:53,248 --> 00:07:56,450
You most certainly can.
212
00:07:56,452 --> 00:07:59,319
How did you know the commander?
213
00:08:01,890 --> 00:08:03,590
Well, it's no secret
214
00:08:03,592 --> 00:08:05,025
that my social life of late
215
00:08:05,027 --> 00:08:08,495
has not exactly been en fuego.
216
00:08:09,331 --> 00:08:11,998
Come on, Duck.
217
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,467
(chuckles)
218
00:08:13,469 --> 00:08:14,968
You still got it.
219
00:08:14,970 --> 00:08:16,570
Perhaps.
220
00:08:16,572 --> 00:08:17,838
I've tried everything.
221
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,105
Online dating.
222
00:08:19,107 --> 00:08:20,874
That was a fiasco.
223
00:08:20,876 --> 00:08:22,409
Speed dating introduced me
224
00:08:22,411 --> 00:08:24,845
to women that I disliked
even faster.
225
00:08:24,847 --> 00:08:27,347
So, I decided to try
226
00:08:27,349 --> 00:08:28,748
mental stimulation,
227
00:08:28,750 --> 00:08:31,017
and I joined a group
of mystery enthusiasts
228
00:08:31,019 --> 00:08:33,386
who solve cold cases.
229
00:08:33,388 --> 00:08:35,055
Amateur detectives.
230
00:08:35,057 --> 00:08:36,523
We call ourselves
231
00:08:36,525 --> 00:08:39,526
"The Sherlock Consortium
for Investigation."
232
00:08:39,528 --> 00:08:42,128
Three weeks ago,
233
00:08:42,130 --> 00:08:44,097
the commander reached out to us.
234
00:08:44,099 --> 00:08:45,432
He was desperate.
235
00:08:45,434 --> 00:08:48,802
He told us that his son,
Michael, was serving
236
00:08:48,804 --> 00:08:50,971
a life sentence
for a military murder
237
00:08:50,973 --> 00:08:54,040
that Hayes insisted
the boy didn't commit.
238
00:08:54,042 --> 00:08:56,343
He said the guilty man was...
239
00:08:56,345 --> 00:08:59,279
Todd Bennett, the fireman.
240
00:08:59,281 --> 00:09:00,981
And he was going
to confront Bennett
241
00:09:00,983 --> 00:09:02,516
and get him to confess.
242
00:09:02,518 --> 00:09:04,284
We advised against it.
243
00:09:04,286 --> 00:09:08,355
You think that Bennett
killed Hayes to shut him up?
244
00:09:09,525 --> 00:09:12,559
Oh, oh, but, Jethro,
keep the Sherlocks out of this.
245
00:09:12,561 --> 00:09:14,528
Anonymity is
246
00:09:14,530 --> 00:09:16,263
of the utmost importance.
247
00:09:16,265 --> 00:09:17,731
Hey, Duck,
248
00:09:17,733 --> 00:09:19,399
next time you're feeling lonely,
249
00:09:19,401 --> 00:09:21,868
read a book.
250
00:09:25,140 --> 00:09:27,507
All right, I'm listening.
251
00:09:27,509 --> 00:09:28,742
Oh.
252
00:09:28,744 --> 00:09:31,044
So, our, uh, victim, boss,
253
00:09:31,046 --> 00:09:32,479
is retired Lieutenant
Commander Runyan Hayes.
254
00:09:32,481 --> 00:09:35,949
Fought in three wars on two
continents over four decades.
255
00:09:35,951 --> 00:09:38,718
He worked two jobs to support
his granddaughter,
256
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,620
Makaela, she's 17.
257
00:09:40,622 --> 00:09:41,922
What is that?
258
00:09:41,924 --> 00:09:43,657
It's a clicker.
259
00:09:43,659 --> 00:09:45,659
No, on your finger.
260
00:09:45,661 --> 00:09:47,027
It's a banana peel.
261
00:09:47,029 --> 00:09:49,195
Tony got himself an owie.
262
00:09:49,197 --> 00:09:50,797
TONY:
It's an Abby thing.
263
00:09:50,799 --> 00:09:51,898
She told me that there's
264
00:09:51,900 --> 00:09:54,301
these special enzymes
in the banana peel
265
00:09:54,303 --> 00:09:56,102
that help, uh, extract...
DiNozzo.
266
00:09:56,104 --> 00:09:57,304
Sit down.
267
00:09:57,306 --> 00:09:59,606
Abby stuff.
268
00:09:59,608 --> 00:10:00,840
Bananas.
269
00:10:00,842 --> 00:10:03,610
Bishop?
270
00:10:03,612 --> 00:10:05,679
That's Runyan's son,
Michael Hayes,
271
00:10:05,681 --> 00:10:08,848
inmate number 37260.
272
00:10:08,850 --> 00:10:11,217
In 1999, Michael was a seaman
273
00:10:11,219 --> 00:10:15,422
aboard the USS Saxton,
when his division officer,
274
00:10:15,424 --> 00:10:16,823
Lieutenant Junior Grade
Brett Swannie,
275
00:10:16,825 --> 00:10:18,558
was strangled and killed.
276
00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:19,859
The original suspect
in Swannie's death
277
00:10:19,861 --> 00:10:21,061
was a fellow
sailor onboard,
278
00:10:21,063 --> 00:10:23,396
Todd Bennett.
279
00:10:23,398 --> 00:10:24,731
He had an argument
with the lieutenant
280
00:10:24,733 --> 00:10:26,132
the night before
he was murdered.
281
00:10:26,134 --> 00:10:27,534
Bennett was never arrested.
282
00:10:27,536 --> 00:10:30,003
Hairs found on Swannie's body
matched the younger Hayes,
283
00:10:30,005 --> 00:10:31,738
and that was that.
284
00:10:31,740 --> 00:10:33,239
As far as Bennett,
285
00:10:33,241 --> 00:10:34,674
he now works as a firefighter
286
00:10:34,676 --> 00:10:37,444
only two miles away from
where the commander was shot.
287
00:10:37,446 --> 00:10:39,446
Bishop, you're with me.
288
00:10:39,448 --> 00:10:41,047
Let's go.
ABBY: Gibbs, Gibbs, Gibbs, Gibbs, Gibbs!
289
00:10:41,049 --> 00:10:42,382
Yeah, Abbs, what?
290
00:10:42,384 --> 00:10:43,550
I have good news.
291
00:10:43,552 --> 00:10:44,884
It's weird, but good.
292
00:10:44,886 --> 00:10:47,387
Um, the bullet in the tree
293
00:10:47,389 --> 00:10:49,623
did, in fact, come
from Commander Hayes's rifle.
294
00:10:49,625 --> 00:10:52,359
The weird good part is
it didn't kill anybody.
295
00:10:52,361 --> 00:10:53,760
Well, how do you know that?
296
00:10:53,762 --> 00:10:56,162
Because there's
no human remains on it.
297
00:10:56,164 --> 00:10:57,230
I mean, there's no way that
298
00:10:57,232 --> 00:10:58,732
it could have passed
through flesh
299
00:10:58,734 --> 00:11:00,500
and not picked up
some tiny little
300
00:11:00,502 --> 00:11:02,302
DNA hitchhikers along the way.
301
00:11:02,304 --> 00:11:04,571
So the commander was killed
by another bullet?
302
00:11:04,573 --> 00:11:06,072
Shot by another gun.
303
00:11:06,074 --> 00:11:08,908
DiNozzo, take McGee with you,
go back to the crime scene.
304
00:11:08,910 --> 00:11:10,543
Find evidence
of another shooter.
305
00:11:10,545 --> 00:11:11,911
Oh, great.
306
00:11:11,913 --> 00:11:14,314
You mean go back to the poison
oak and land of splinters.
307
00:11:14,316 --> 00:11:15,515
(clicks)
308
00:11:15,517 --> 00:11:16,583
I'll take it out.
309
00:11:16,585 --> 00:11:18,518
I'm good, boss, thanks.
310
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,353
No, I'm good.
(knife blade clicks, retracting)
311
00:11:22,624 --> 00:11:25,558
My version is a lot
more civilized.
312
00:11:26,395 --> 00:11:27,927
Not popular with Gibbs.
313
00:11:27,929 --> 00:11:29,029
Look!
314
00:11:29,031 --> 00:11:30,930
The little guy
worked its way right...
315
00:11:30,932 --> 00:11:33,133
out of your skin.
(squeaking)
316
00:11:33,135 --> 00:11:34,200
Oh!
317
00:11:34,202 --> 00:11:35,835
Good job, little guy.
318
00:11:35,837 --> 00:11:37,904
Good job!
Okay...
319
00:11:37,906 --> 00:11:41,574
Dear Noble Eastern White Pine:
320
00:11:41,576 --> 00:11:44,544
Thank you for
your brave sacrifice.
321
00:11:44,546 --> 00:11:47,781
And Tony is very sorry
322
00:11:47,783 --> 00:11:49,449
that he attacked you
323
00:11:49,451 --> 00:11:50,450
with his knife.
324
00:11:50,452 --> 00:11:52,352
And we promise
325
00:11:52,354 --> 00:11:54,888
that we will find
and punish the person
326
00:11:54,890 --> 00:11:56,089
that shot you.
327
00:11:56,091 --> 00:11:57,290
The end.
328
00:11:57,292 --> 00:11:58,758
Okay.
329
00:11:59,594 --> 00:12:01,094
Abby loves trees.
330
00:12:04,833 --> 00:12:06,933
(woodpecker pecking wood
in distance)
331
00:12:06,935 --> 00:12:09,102
I'd like to cut you down
and use you for firewood
332
00:12:09,104 --> 00:12:10,303
all winter long.
333
00:12:10,305 --> 00:12:11,771
Okay, don't even
joke about that.
334
00:12:11,773 --> 00:12:12,739
You heard Abby,
335
00:12:12,741 --> 00:12:13,807
you know what
you have to say.
336
00:12:13,809 --> 00:12:14,941
I don't want to say it.
337
00:12:14,943 --> 00:12:16,209
You're gonna say it.
338
00:12:16,211 --> 00:12:17,644
(inhaling deeply)
339
00:12:17,646 --> 00:12:19,913
Dear Noble Eastern
White Pine...
340
00:12:19,915 --> 00:12:21,214
(sighing)
341
00:12:21,216 --> 00:12:23,450
...this is from Abby Sciuto.
342
00:12:23,452 --> 00:12:27,187
She said you would know
what to do with it.
343
00:12:27,189 --> 00:12:28,755
There you go.
344
00:12:28,757 --> 00:12:30,490
There, I said it.
Are you happy?
345
00:12:30,492 --> 00:12:32,959
I'm happy, and Abby
will be very happy.
346
00:12:37,032 --> 00:12:38,598
McGEE:
All right.
347
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:39,799
There we go.
348
00:12:42,337 --> 00:12:44,838
Mm.
Trajectory doesn't match.
349
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:46,239
Well...
350
00:12:46,241 --> 00:12:48,441
body's over there.
351
00:12:48,443 --> 00:12:50,110
This bullet came
from that direction.
352
00:12:51,980 --> 00:12:53,079
Anything?
353
00:12:53,081 --> 00:12:54,647
Uh, not yet.
354
00:12:54,649 --> 00:12:55,815
Hey, look,
355
00:12:55,817 --> 00:12:57,484
you're getting it
hung up on the trees.
356
00:12:57,486 --> 00:12:59,085
Bullets don't bend, McGee.
357
00:13:01,590 --> 00:13:02,922
I found something.
358
00:13:02,924 --> 00:13:04,991
Ooh!
359
00:13:06,061 --> 00:13:07,894
It's a wallet.
360
00:13:07,896 --> 00:13:09,262
Look at that.
361
00:13:10,799 --> 00:13:12,232
It's the commander's wallet.
362
00:13:12,234 --> 00:13:13,800
Ooh.
363
00:13:13,802 --> 00:13:16,903
So, if Commander Hayes
was standing here
364
00:13:16,905 --> 00:13:17,937
when he shot his rifle...
365
00:13:17,939 --> 00:13:19,739
McGEE:
Most likely at the killer.
366
00:13:19,741 --> 00:13:21,508
The killer
would've fired back,
367
00:13:21,510 --> 00:13:22,809
hitting him in the neck.
368
00:13:22,811 --> 00:13:25,044
Blood spatter would be...
369
00:13:26,481 --> 00:13:28,681
...right there.
370
00:13:30,318 --> 00:13:32,585
There it is.
Bullet hole.
371
00:13:37,726 --> 00:13:40,260
TONY: Bet this bullet has
the commander's DNA.
372
00:13:40,262 --> 00:13:42,295
All we gotta do
is find the gun.
373
00:13:42,297 --> 00:13:44,731
You know what? I'm not too sure
there's a bullet in here.
374
00:13:44,733 --> 00:13:46,900
I think someone dug it out.
375
00:13:46,902 --> 00:13:49,035
(laughing): McGee, what
are you talking about?
376
00:13:49,037 --> 00:13:51,104
Well, do you see it?
Look...
377
00:13:51,106 --> 00:13:53,106
it's hidden by
that sticky sap.
378
00:13:53,108 --> 00:13:55,809
Tony, if there was a bullet
in there,
379
00:13:55,811 --> 00:13:57,811
I am perfectly capable of...
Ow!
380
00:13:58,814 --> 00:14:00,246
(Tony groans)
381
00:14:00,248 --> 00:14:01,781
Trees.
382
00:14:03,919 --> 00:14:06,886
Faster, ladies!
You're three seconds behind!
383
00:14:06,888 --> 00:14:07,887
Let's go!
384
00:14:07,889 --> 00:14:11,291
Three seconds
could cost a kid his life!
385
00:14:11,293 --> 00:14:14,861
Stop! Let's do it again,
no mistakes!
386
00:14:14,863 --> 00:14:16,763
GIBBS:
Todd Bennett?
387
00:14:16,765 --> 00:14:19,566
NCIS.
Special Agent Bishop
388
00:14:19,568 --> 00:14:21,167
and Gibbs.
389
00:14:21,169 --> 00:14:22,302
(indistinct radio
communication in background)
390
00:14:22,304 --> 00:14:23,970
That your truck?
391
00:14:23,972 --> 00:14:26,206
Where's the rifle
for the rack?
392
00:14:26,208 --> 00:14:27,607
I have a permit.
393
00:14:27,609 --> 00:14:29,175
That's not what
I asked you.
394
00:14:29,177 --> 00:14:30,310
Hmph.
395
00:14:30,312 --> 00:14:32,345
There someplace private
we can talk?
396
00:14:32,347 --> 00:14:35,248
There's nothing
my boys can't hear.
397
00:14:35,250 --> 00:14:38,318
You know a retired Navy
officer named Runyan Hayes?
398
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:39,986
Yeah, I know him.
399
00:14:39,988 --> 00:14:42,589
He's been accusing me of murder
for the past 16 years.
400
00:14:42,591 --> 00:14:43,690
When was the last time
you saw him?
401
00:14:43,692 --> 00:14:44,924
Couple weeks back.
402
00:14:44,926 --> 00:14:47,493
He showed up here
and wanted me to confess.
403
00:14:47,495 --> 00:14:50,997
Only problem is, I don't have
anything to confess to.
404
00:14:51,867 --> 00:14:53,066
And go!
405
00:14:55,537 --> 00:14:56,703
That's when he took off.
406
00:14:56,705 --> 00:14:58,238
And no, I didn't follow him.
407
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,306
And no, I didn't kill him.
408
00:15:00,308 --> 00:15:03,276
Commander Hayes's death
isn't public information.
409
00:15:03,278 --> 00:15:05,745
How do you know about it?
410
00:15:05,747 --> 00:15:07,580
Private investigator
told me.
411
00:15:07,582 --> 00:15:10,283
What private investigator?
412
00:15:10,285 --> 00:15:11,851
Big government agents
413
00:15:11,853 --> 00:15:13,987
can't even figure out
who's working the case.
414
00:15:15,090 --> 00:15:16,923
You got a name?
415
00:15:18,460 --> 00:15:21,160
(sighs)
It was a woman. Older.
416
00:15:21,162 --> 00:15:22,662
She left a card.
417
00:15:26,501 --> 00:15:27,834
DUCKY:
Membership to the Sherlocks
418
00:15:27,836 --> 00:15:30,837
is a closely
guarded secret.
419
00:15:30,839 --> 00:15:32,372
I'll speak to them,
personally.
420
00:15:32,374 --> 00:15:34,574
No, I'll speak to them
personally.
421
00:15:34,576 --> 00:15:38,444
Jethro, that would be
a dreadful... horrible idea.
422
00:15:38,446 --> 00:15:40,113
Why?
423
00:15:40,115 --> 00:15:43,283
(groans) The Sherlocks
are some of the most unique
424
00:15:43,285 --> 00:15:45,351
and forward-thinking
criminologists
425
00:15:45,353 --> 00:15:46,619
I've encountered!
426
00:15:46,621 --> 00:15:48,388
But...
427
00:15:48,390 --> 00:15:51,457
(quietly): they do not
play well with others.
428
00:15:51,459 --> 00:15:53,793
Neither do I.
429
00:15:53,795 --> 00:15:55,228
(doorbell chimes)
430
00:15:55,230 --> 00:15:57,330
(clock ticking quietly)
431
00:16:00,435 --> 00:16:01,734
BUTLER:
Dr. Mallard.
432
00:16:01,736 --> 00:16:03,703
Good evening,
Stephenson.
433
00:16:03,705 --> 00:16:04,971
Is this somebody's home?
434
00:16:04,973 --> 00:16:06,739
Oh, it's a family
residence
435
00:16:06,741 --> 00:16:09,309
handed down from generation
to generation.
436
00:16:09,311 --> 00:16:10,343
Hmm.
437
00:16:10,345 --> 00:16:11,511
(door closes)
438
00:16:11,513 --> 00:16:14,714
(clock chiming)
439
00:16:14,716 --> 00:16:16,316
Can we just go in, Duck?
440
00:16:23,325 --> 00:16:26,926
Your secret knock is
"Shave and a Haircut"?
441
00:16:26,928 --> 00:16:28,227
Irony.
442
00:16:28,229 --> 00:16:29,495
(lock buzzes, latch clicks)
443
00:16:32,801 --> 00:16:34,567
Donald, you're late.
444
00:16:39,274 --> 00:16:41,874
It looks like
we're right on time.
445
00:16:58,856 --> 00:17:01,053
Walt Osorio,
consulting detective
446
00:17:01,153 --> 00:17:02,753
for the Sherlock Consortium.
447
00:17:02,755 --> 00:17:06,590
Uh, you must be
Special Agent Gibbs, NCIS?
448
00:17:06,592 --> 00:17:09,092
And Special Agent Bishop.
449
00:17:09,094 --> 00:17:11,028
We're looking for
Judith McKnight?
450
00:17:11,030 --> 00:17:12,729
Speaking.
451
00:17:12,731 --> 00:17:16,233
And listening, to hear if you
have anything worthwhile to say.
452
00:17:16,235 --> 00:17:18,235
(clock chimes)
453
00:17:18,237 --> 00:17:19,803
That's what I thought.
454
00:17:19,805 --> 00:17:21,638
The quiet, brooding type.
455
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:22,873
Oh, Judith, please!
456
00:17:22,875 --> 00:17:25,275
Anybody want a drink?
I need one.
457
00:17:25,277 --> 00:17:27,878
Did you talk to a fireman
named Todd Bennett?
458
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:29,580
Don't answer that, Judith.
459
00:17:29,582 --> 00:17:31,748
You have a very
commanding voice,
460
00:17:31,750 --> 00:17:33,584
Special Agent Gibbs.
461
00:17:33,586 --> 00:17:35,352
And big hands.
462
00:17:35,354 --> 00:17:36,320
Oh, boy.
463
00:17:36,322 --> 00:17:38,222
DUCKY:
Fellow Sherlocks...
464
00:17:38,224 --> 00:17:42,125
I must apologize for breaking
the seal of secrecy,
465
00:17:42,127 --> 00:17:45,596
but NCIS is now formally taking
over the investigation
466
00:17:45,598 --> 00:17:47,898
of Lieutenant Commander
Runyan Hayes,
467
00:17:47,900 --> 00:17:49,800
so, please, please,
468
00:17:49,802 --> 00:17:52,936
hand over any information
that you may have gathered.
469
00:17:52,938 --> 00:17:55,305
Just like that,
eh, Donald?
470
00:17:55,307 --> 00:17:58,108
Well, Walter,
you've always know that if
471
00:17:58,110 --> 00:18:01,044
my vocation and avocation
intersect,
472
00:18:01,046 --> 00:18:02,512
then my loyalties...
(wry chuckle)
473
00:18:02,514 --> 00:18:04,948
well, they must remain
with NCIS.
474
00:18:04,950 --> 00:18:08,719
Well, according
to City Code 348-61,
475
00:18:08,721 --> 00:18:11,788
the Sherlock Consortium
is not legally bound
476
00:18:11,790 --> 00:18:14,324
to, quote: engage in
477
00:18:14,326 --> 00:18:16,326
interagency cooperation.
478
00:18:16,328 --> 00:18:18,829
You're not
a government agency.
479
00:18:18,831 --> 00:18:21,465
Actually,
the Sherlock Consortium
480
00:18:21,467 --> 00:18:23,033
is a federally
registered...
481
00:18:23,035 --> 00:18:24,201
Who are you?
482
00:18:24,203 --> 00:18:25,569
I'm Lyle.
483
00:18:25,571 --> 00:18:26,870
Shut up, Lyle.
484
00:18:26,872 --> 00:18:30,641
Gibbs, there are police files,
attorney e-mails,
485
00:18:30,643 --> 00:18:32,042
divorce papers,
486
00:18:32,044 --> 00:18:33,977
all private documents--
how did you get these?
487
00:18:33,979 --> 00:18:37,247
What we do and how we do it
is our business.
488
00:18:37,249 --> 00:18:38,849
Our business now.
489
00:18:38,851 --> 00:18:40,784
LYLE: Hey, we spent days
gathering this evidence.
490
00:18:40,786 --> 00:18:41,952
You can't just take a shortcut
491
00:18:41,954 --> 00:18:44,054
to get to the finish
line before us.
492
00:18:44,056 --> 00:18:45,555
Okay?
DUCKY: Lyle...
493
00:18:45,557 --> 00:18:47,190
this is not a contest.
494
00:18:47,192 --> 00:18:51,228
You've made your allegiances
very clear, Donald.
495
00:18:51,230 --> 00:18:54,464
Special Agent Gibbs, there must
be a way we could work this out.
496
00:18:54,466 --> 00:18:59,236
Wait, I just want you to keep it
here, just for... Aah!
497
00:18:59,238 --> 00:19:01,471
We're doing this
the hard way.
498
00:19:03,042 --> 00:19:05,175
I like the hard way.
499
00:19:08,414 --> 00:19:09,780
(handcuffs ratcheting)
500
00:19:09,782 --> 00:19:11,782
(groans quietly)
501
00:19:11,784 --> 00:19:14,685
So, leader of the wacko brigade
is named Walt Osario.
502
00:19:14,687 --> 00:19:17,654
Goes by "Consulting
Detective."
503
00:19:17,656 --> 00:19:20,557
Same title as Sherlock Holmes,
by the way.
504
00:19:20,559 --> 00:19:22,326
Ex-cop from New Hampshire.
505
00:19:22,328 --> 00:19:24,528
Five years ago,
budget cut forced him out.
506
00:19:25,664 --> 00:19:28,065
Playing the role
of Mr. Watson
507
00:19:28,067 --> 00:19:29,599
is Judith McKnight.
508
00:19:29,601 --> 00:19:31,034
She has no actual
509
00:19:31,036 --> 00:19:32,769
law enforcement experience.
510
00:19:32,771 --> 00:19:34,705
She's an author
of airport
511
00:19:34,707 --> 00:19:36,907
paperback novels.
512
00:19:36,909 --> 00:19:38,608
Don't knock
the pulp fiction, Bish.
513
00:19:38,610 --> 00:19:42,012
You're talking about McGee's
retirement account there.
514
00:19:42,014 --> 00:19:43,714
That's Judith McKnight.
515
00:19:44,450 --> 00:19:45,882
Judith McKnight?
516
00:19:45,884 --> 00:19:48,218
Diamond Delancy
mysteries, no?
517
00:19:48,220 --> 00:19:50,987
14-year-old crime fighting
girl, with pigtails?
518
00:19:50,989 --> 00:19:53,290
And...
Okay, well,
519
00:19:53,292 --> 00:19:54,725
you're missing out.
520
00:19:54,727 --> 00:19:56,393
McKnight is unbelievable.
521
00:19:56,395 --> 00:19:58,729
Hmm. And boy, did she hit
the mother lode.
522
00:19:58,731 --> 00:20:01,131
Oh! Well, if she's loaded...
523
00:20:01,133 --> 00:20:03,633
maybe I can set her up
with my dad.
524
00:20:03,635 --> 00:20:05,202
He's broke.
525
00:20:05,204 --> 00:20:07,337
Anyway, moving on
to Lyle:
526
00:20:07,339 --> 00:20:08,672
Last name unknown.
527
00:20:08,674 --> 00:20:09,973
Date of birth: unknown.
528
00:20:09,975 --> 00:20:11,875
His only I.D. card...
529
00:20:11,877 --> 00:20:15,579
Hey! He's a platinum member
of the Frequent Eater's Club
530
00:20:15,581 --> 00:20:16,613
at Popper's Pizza.
531
00:20:16,615 --> 00:20:17,781
And that's it.
532
00:20:17,783 --> 00:20:19,116
You think he's a threat?
533
00:20:19,118 --> 00:20:21,351
I would say,
to a two-topping medium pizza,
534
00:20:21,353 --> 00:20:22,552
he's a severe threat.
535
00:20:22,554 --> 00:20:24,988
Those three lunatics
are in the conference room.
536
00:20:24,990 --> 00:20:27,224
Find out what they know
and get 'em outta here.
537
00:20:28,527 --> 00:20:29,926
The three of ya.
538
00:20:29,928 --> 00:20:31,895
Go!
539
00:20:35,667 --> 00:20:37,667
Let me get this bad boy
autographed.
540
00:20:39,004 --> 00:20:41,004
Thank you.
541
00:20:41,006 --> 00:20:42,839
Here's some marshmallows.
They're good.
542
00:20:42,841 --> 00:20:43,940
No, thank you.
543
00:20:43,942 --> 00:20:46,343
Agent Gibbs?
544
00:20:46,345 --> 00:20:47,911
We appreciate you
calling us.
545
00:20:47,913 --> 00:20:50,080
This has been
a very difficult time.
546
00:20:50,082 --> 00:20:51,381
But as...
547
00:20:51,383 --> 00:20:52,649
friends of the family,
548
00:20:52,651 --> 00:20:55,786
we are honored to be
Makaela's guardians now.
549
00:20:55,788 --> 00:20:58,422
The commander was
a very special man.
550
00:20:58,424 --> 00:21:00,490
He was like another father
to me, in many ways.
551
00:21:00,492 --> 00:21:02,993
We found these in your
grandfather's wallet.
552
00:21:04,596 --> 00:21:06,463
I think he'd want
you to have them.
553
00:21:08,233 --> 00:21:11,067
MAKAELA (voice breaking):
I didn't know he kept this.
554
00:21:12,571 --> 00:21:14,004
Proud of his family.
555
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,174
Proud of you.
556
00:21:18,877 --> 00:21:20,811
(Makaela sniffles)
557
00:21:20,813 --> 00:21:23,814
Everything he did,
he did for me or for my dad.
558
00:21:25,717 --> 00:21:29,052
Agent Gibbs,
can I have a moment?
559
00:21:32,291 --> 00:21:36,026
I think I should be the one
to tell Michael about his dad.
560
00:21:36,028 --> 00:21:38,228
You two close?
561
00:21:38,230 --> 00:21:39,529
(scoffs)
We're like brothers.
562
00:21:39,531 --> 00:21:41,898
We served on
the Saxon together.
563
00:21:41,900 --> 00:21:44,534
We went through hell
together.
564
00:21:44,536 --> 00:21:45,802
Every time I'm in town,
565
00:21:45,804 --> 00:21:48,305
I still visit Michael,
once a month.
566
00:21:48,307 --> 00:21:50,707
He's one of
the best men I know.
567
00:21:50,709 --> 00:21:52,209
You think he's innocent?
568
00:21:54,813 --> 00:21:57,080
I don't think. I know.
569
00:21:59,251 --> 00:22:01,418
So tell me
about Lieutenant Swannie,
570
00:22:01,420 --> 00:22:03,420
your division officer.
571
00:22:03,422 --> 00:22:06,223
(sighs) That son of a bitch
still gives me nightmares.
572
00:22:06,225 --> 00:22:07,991
His death?
573
00:22:07,993 --> 00:22:09,893
His life.
574
00:22:09,895 --> 00:22:12,128
He was a sick bastard
who wasn't fit to lead.
575
00:22:12,130 --> 00:22:13,330
We were just kids.
576
00:22:13,332 --> 00:22:14,631
He ruined us.
577
00:22:14,633 --> 00:22:16,433
Are you talking
about the hazing?
578
00:22:16,435 --> 00:22:17,701
That I could've dealt with.
579
00:22:17,703 --> 00:22:18,835
It was more...
580
00:22:18,837 --> 00:22:20,537
psychological.
581
00:22:20,539 --> 00:22:22,272
He broke us.
582
00:22:22,274 --> 00:22:24,341
And he broke Bennett, too?
583
00:22:24,343 --> 00:22:26,910
There's only two ways to deal
with someone like Swannie--
584
00:22:26,912 --> 00:22:28,545
either beat them, or join them.
585
00:22:28,547 --> 00:22:30,280
Bennett joined him.
586
00:22:30,282 --> 00:22:31,615
Commander Hayes
was a good man.
587
00:22:31,617 --> 00:22:34,150
A loving grandfather.
588
00:22:34,152 --> 00:22:35,752
All he wanted to know
was the truth,
589
00:22:35,754 --> 00:22:36,953
and look where it got him.
590
00:22:36,955 --> 00:22:38,555
Now Makaela's father
591
00:22:38,557 --> 00:22:40,257
is in jail for a crime
he didn't commit,
592
00:22:40,259 --> 00:22:41,725
the old man is dead,
593
00:22:41,727 --> 00:22:43,527
and Makaela suffers
all over again.
594
00:22:43,529 --> 00:22:44,828
(phone ringing)
595
00:22:44,830 --> 00:22:46,830
I guess we don't always
get what we deserve, do we?
596
00:22:47,566 --> 00:22:49,633
Yeah, McGee,
what do you want?
597
00:22:49,635 --> 00:22:52,202
Boss, is there any way you can
come to the conference room?
598
00:22:52,204 --> 00:22:54,437
The Sherlocks have uncovered
something that you should know.
599
00:22:54,439 --> 00:22:55,939
Are you talking
about Commander Hayes?
600
00:22:55,941 --> 00:22:57,073
No, actually,
601
00:22:57,075 --> 00:22:58,308
his son, Michael.
602
00:22:58,310 --> 00:22:59,943
We think he might be innocent.
603
00:23:02,381 --> 00:23:04,180
(sighs)
(indistinct chatter)
604
00:23:04,182 --> 00:23:06,383
Gibbs, been out forever...
605
00:23:06,385 --> 00:23:07,784
Special Agent Gibbs, we have...
Somebody talk to me.
606
00:23:07,786 --> 00:23:10,320
Other than her.
607
00:23:10,322 --> 00:23:12,088
Runyan Hayes's son, Michael,
608
00:23:12,090 --> 00:23:13,590
was convicted for murdering
his division officer
609
00:23:13,592 --> 00:23:15,659
and we think the forensic test
610
00:23:15,661 --> 00:23:18,194
that linked Michael
to the murder was flawed.
611
00:23:18,196 --> 00:23:19,362
Flawed how?
612
00:23:19,364 --> 00:23:20,830
Discredited, Gibbs.
613
00:23:20,832 --> 00:23:22,766
As in, it's no longer
614
00:23:22,768 --> 00:23:25,502
an accepted part
of the legal process.
615
00:23:25,504 --> 00:23:27,270
The murder happened in 1999,
616
00:23:27,272 --> 00:23:29,372
before DNA tests
became the standard.
617
00:23:29,374 --> 00:23:32,342
So when the hairs were found
on Lieutenant Swannie's body,
618
00:23:32,344 --> 00:23:33,577
a test called
619
00:23:33,579 --> 00:23:35,145
the Microscopic
Hair Comparison Analysis
620
00:23:35,147 --> 00:23:36,646
was performed.
621
00:23:36,648 --> 00:23:39,816
The test matched the hairs
to Michael Hayes.
622
00:23:39,818 --> 00:23:41,051
And?
623
00:23:41,053 --> 00:23:42,218
And that test couldn't match
624
00:23:42,220 --> 00:23:43,820
a pair of socks.
625
00:23:43,822 --> 00:23:45,055
Take a look at this report
626
00:23:45,057 --> 00:23:46,723
from the National Academy
of Sciences.
627
00:23:46,725 --> 00:23:49,826
It calls the hair test
"highly unreliable."
628
00:23:50,729 --> 00:23:52,662
And the FBI sent out
this press release,
629
00:23:52,664 --> 00:23:56,967
and it says that microscopic
hair analysis is bupkis.
630
00:23:56,969 --> 00:23:59,302
That's not technically
the quote, but...
631
00:23:59,304 --> 00:24:02,639
In the '80s and '90s, there were
more than 3,000 federal cases
632
00:24:02,641 --> 00:24:04,040
involving this hair analysis,
633
00:24:04,042 --> 00:24:06,042
and right now,
634
00:24:06,044 --> 00:24:08,945
the FBI is re-examining
every one of them.
635
00:24:08,947 --> 00:24:12,882
Yeah, and that means that
my buddy Fornell will be busy.
636
00:24:13,719 --> 00:24:15,518
This is not our problem.
637
00:24:16,989 --> 00:24:19,255
No, Gibbs, it is our problem.
638
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,592
The forensic scientist
who performed the test
639
00:24:22,594 --> 00:24:24,194
and testified
at Michael's trial...
640
00:24:25,664 --> 00:24:27,864
...was Abby Sciuto.
641
00:24:44,825 --> 00:24:46,258
I knew it. I knew it.
642
00:24:46,260 --> 00:24:47,726
I knew it, I knew it, I knew it.
643
00:24:47,728 --> 00:24:48,927
Abbs...
644
00:24:48,929 --> 00:24:50,695
I knew this would happen.
645
00:24:51,197 --> 00:24:52,363
Ow.
646
00:24:53,633 --> 00:24:55,266
When I saw that press release,
647
00:24:55,268 --> 00:24:58,035
I went back and I found
12 cases where I used
648
00:24:58,037 --> 00:25:00,271
Microscopic Hair Analysis.
649
00:25:00,273 --> 00:25:01,705
I sent them all to the FBI,
650
00:25:01,707 --> 00:25:05,176
and I've been waiting
and waiting and waiting for the results.
651
00:25:05,178 --> 00:25:06,544
Take a look at this.
Tell me what you see?
652
00:25:06,546 --> 00:25:08,145
Uh...
653
00:25:08,147 --> 00:25:09,947
two hairs, both brown.
654
00:25:09,949 --> 00:25:11,248
Actually, kind of gray.
655
00:25:11,250 --> 00:25:13,017
(chuckles)
656
00:25:13,019 --> 00:25:15,319
Forensic scientists compare
ten different attributes
657
00:25:15,321 --> 00:25:17,488
of the hair, including color,
658
00:25:17,490 --> 00:25:19,857
the thickness,
the pigment distribution.
659
00:25:19,859 --> 00:25:21,659
I don't see any gray.
660
00:25:21,661 --> 00:25:22,860
I'd say they're identical.
661
00:25:22,862 --> 00:25:25,429
Wrong.
662
00:25:25,431 --> 00:25:28,032
The one on the left
is yours, Tony.
663
00:25:28,034 --> 00:25:29,733
The one on the right
is McGee's.
664
00:25:29,735 --> 00:25:31,702
How'd you get mine?
665
00:25:31,704 --> 00:25:34,205
I just got it off your jacket
when you first walked in.
666
00:25:34,207 --> 00:25:35,272
But that's not the point.
667
00:25:35,274 --> 00:25:36,941
The point is that
I should have known.
668
00:25:36,943 --> 00:25:38,809
Or I should have checked.
669
00:25:38,811 --> 00:25:41,145
Or I should have... something.
670
00:25:41,147 --> 00:25:42,813
Just put it out of your mind
671
00:25:42,815 --> 00:25:45,082
until the FBI finishes
doing their retesting.
672
00:25:45,084 --> 00:25:45,950
When will that be?
673
00:25:45,952 --> 00:25:47,084
Two weeks!
674
00:25:47,086 --> 00:25:48,419
I can't wait that long.
675
00:25:48,421 --> 00:25:50,821
I mean, this is my whole world.
676
00:25:50,823 --> 00:25:53,757
Can you imagine if I,
if I messed up?
677
00:25:53,759 --> 00:25:55,926
What that really means?
678
00:25:55,928 --> 00:25:58,262
It means that innocent people
679
00:25:58,264 --> 00:26:00,831
went to jail because of me.
680
00:26:01,901 --> 00:26:03,734
Because of my mistakes!
681
00:26:03,736 --> 00:26:05,803
(buzzer sounds)
682
00:26:05,805 --> 00:26:08,005
(indistinct chatter)
683
00:26:19,986 --> 00:26:21,585
Michael.
684
00:26:21,587 --> 00:26:23,187
What's wrong?
685
00:26:23,189 --> 00:26:24,622
Who is she, Jason?
686
00:26:24,624 --> 00:26:27,491
I'm so sorry, Michael.
687
00:26:27,493 --> 00:26:30,127
Man, what is this?
688
00:26:30,129 --> 00:26:32,496
Listen, I don't know
how to tell you this, okay,
689
00:26:32,498 --> 00:26:34,765
so I'm just going to say it.
690
00:26:36,335 --> 00:26:39,370
Your father's dead.
691
00:26:39,372 --> 00:26:41,705
Runyan was murdered.
692
00:26:45,611 --> 00:26:46,844
When?
693
00:26:46,846 --> 00:26:48,012
Hard to tell.
694
00:26:48,014 --> 00:26:49,947
About a week.
695
00:26:49,949 --> 00:26:52,650
They found him
in the woods.
696
00:26:52,652 --> 00:26:54,251
Bennett do this, too?
697
00:26:54,253 --> 00:26:56,654
I don't know, maybe.
698
00:26:56,656 --> 00:26:58,289
NCIS seems to think so.
699
00:26:58,291 --> 00:26:59,857
NCIS?
700
00:26:59,859 --> 00:27:02,793
They're helping us
now, Michael.
701
00:27:02,795 --> 00:27:04,495
Okay, th-th-they're
working with us.
702
00:27:04,497 --> 00:27:05,796
No, no.
703
00:27:05,798 --> 00:27:09,600
Michael, everybody's just
looking for the truth here.
704
00:27:09,602 --> 00:27:11,168
Is she one of them?
705
00:27:11,170 --> 00:27:12,469
Put her on the phone.
706
00:27:12,471 --> 00:27:13,804
Michael.
707
00:27:13,806 --> 00:27:16,006
Do it.
708
00:27:25,284 --> 00:27:26,517
Mr. Hayes,
709
00:27:26,519 --> 00:27:27,918
I'm Special Agent Bishop.
710
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:29,820
Now you listen to me.
711
00:27:29,822 --> 00:27:31,722
You stay away from my family.
712
00:27:31,724 --> 00:27:33,524
Stay away from my daughter.
713
00:27:33,526 --> 00:27:34,758
We're just trying to help.
714
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:35,893
Oh, like you helped me
715
00:27:35,895 --> 00:27:37,228
back then?
716
00:27:37,230 --> 00:27:39,363
Like you listened to me
all those years ago?
717
00:27:39,365 --> 00:27:41,131
We're trying to find
your father's killer.
718
00:27:41,133 --> 00:27:42,299
Like you found
719
00:27:42,301 --> 00:27:44,401
Lieutenant Swannie's killer,
right?
720
00:27:44,403 --> 00:27:45,836
(scoffs)
721
00:27:45,838 --> 00:27:48,806
Why don't you just blame me
for my father's murder?
722
00:27:50,743 --> 00:27:52,476
Look,
723
00:27:52,478 --> 00:27:54,445
um, Agent Bishop...
724
00:27:54,447 --> 00:27:56,247
right?
725
00:27:56,249 --> 00:27:58,649
You want to help me?
726
00:27:58,651 --> 00:28:00,985
Let me hug my daughter.
727
00:28:00,987 --> 00:28:03,887
This glass, this phone.
728
00:28:05,691 --> 00:28:08,459
I haven't held her hand
in 16 years.
729
00:28:09,729 --> 00:28:13,197
I just want my baby back.
730
00:28:14,066 --> 00:28:17,368
Can... can NCIS help me do that?
731
00:28:21,274 --> 00:28:23,240
(dramatic music playing)
732
00:28:23,242 --> 00:28:25,075
(knocking at door)
733
00:28:25,077 --> 00:28:26,143
It's open!
734
00:28:26,145 --> 00:28:29,246
(door creaks open)
JUDITH: Special Agent Gibbs.
735
00:28:29,248 --> 00:28:31,615
There is no Gibbs here.
736
00:28:31,617 --> 00:28:33,350
(door closes)
737
00:28:33,352 --> 00:28:35,686
We just need three minutes
of your time.
738
00:28:38,124 --> 00:28:40,124
You got two.
739
00:28:40,126 --> 00:28:42,192
Nice place.
740
00:28:42,194 --> 00:28:44,828
Looks like one of those
make-believe houses
741
00:28:44,830 --> 00:28:47,097
that they used to nuke
in the desert in the '40s.
742
00:28:47,099 --> 00:28:48,699
JUDITH:
Mm, I like it.
743
00:28:48,701 --> 00:28:51,101
Just needs a woman's touch.
744
00:28:51,103 --> 00:28:52,436
You know,
you're a good sport.
745
00:28:52,438 --> 00:28:53,570
I know you don't want
746
00:28:53,572 --> 00:28:55,539
anything to do with me.
747
00:28:55,541 --> 00:28:57,474
Even though I could keep you
748
00:28:57,476 --> 00:29:00,577
like the triple-crown stud
that you are.
749
00:29:00,579 --> 00:29:01,812
How did you find my house?
750
00:29:01,814 --> 00:29:03,280
WALT:
Former P.D., remember?
751
00:29:03,282 --> 00:29:06,383
I could find a flea
on a rat's anus.
752
00:29:07,453 --> 00:29:09,653
Brought you a peace offering.
753
00:29:09,655 --> 00:29:10,688
Pegged you
754
00:29:10,690 --> 00:29:13,924
as a jerky guy
the second we met.
755
00:29:13,926 --> 00:29:16,460
Minute, 30.
756
00:29:16,462 --> 00:29:17,561
I'll get right to it.
757
00:29:17,563 --> 00:29:19,196
Look, we all
want the same thing here.
758
00:29:19,198 --> 00:29:22,366
Justice
for Commander Runyan Hayes,
759
00:29:22,368 --> 00:29:24,735
and now for his son,
Michael, too.
760
00:29:24,737 --> 00:29:27,338
We're asking NCIS
to consider
761
00:29:27,340 --> 00:29:31,408
formally reopening
the 1999 murder investigation.
762
00:29:31,410 --> 00:29:32,843
What's in the basement?
763
00:29:32,845 --> 00:29:34,445
Hey! None of your business.
764
00:29:34,447 --> 00:29:35,612
Come back here.
765
00:29:35,614 --> 00:29:37,581
Is it your naughty room?
766
00:29:37,583 --> 00:29:40,617
Want to know my safe word?
767
00:29:41,687 --> 00:29:43,921
Kielbasa.
768
00:29:45,458 --> 00:29:47,057
You know what
your problem is, Gibbs?
769
00:29:47,059 --> 00:29:48,959
Yeah, the three of you.
770
00:29:48,961 --> 00:29:50,027
The law.
771
00:29:50,029 --> 00:29:53,063
Got to abide by it, right?
772
00:29:53,065 --> 00:29:54,998
But the law can also
773
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,434
be an impediment
for those people
774
00:29:57,436 --> 00:30:00,471
trying to uphold it.
775
00:30:00,473 --> 00:30:02,339
Makes things tough
to get done,
776
00:30:02,341 --> 00:30:04,174
if you know what I mean.
777
00:30:04,176 --> 00:30:05,809
40 seconds.
778
00:30:05,811 --> 00:30:09,346
The Sherlock Consortium doesn't
need to play by the rules.
779
00:30:09,348 --> 00:30:11,014
How do you think
we got fireman
780
00:30:11,016 --> 00:30:12,816
Todd Bennett's divorce papers?
781
00:30:12,818 --> 00:30:16,086
He has a history of
domestic violence.
782
00:30:16,088 --> 00:30:19,123
My gut tells me
he killed Commander Hayes.
783
00:30:19,125 --> 00:30:20,524
Okay, but he's got an alibi
784
00:30:20,526 --> 00:30:22,426
for the night
the commander died.
785
00:30:22,428 --> 00:30:24,528
Got 15 witnesses to back him up.
786
00:30:24,530 --> 00:30:27,331
Which is why you couldn't get
a warrant to search his house.
787
00:30:27,333 --> 00:30:30,901
But let's say we
search his house.
788
00:30:30,903 --> 00:30:32,770
Well, then I'd have
to arrest you.
789
00:30:32,772 --> 00:30:34,138
Team up with the Sherlocks.
790
00:30:34,140 --> 00:30:35,305
What do you say?
791
00:30:35,307 --> 00:30:37,374
No.
792
00:30:37,376 --> 00:30:39,910
Well, you can think
about it.
793
00:30:39,912 --> 00:30:41,412
Hmm.
794
00:30:43,783 --> 00:30:45,149
(sighs)
It's been really nice
795
00:30:45,151 --> 00:30:47,317
talking to you, sunshine.
796
00:30:47,319 --> 00:30:50,788
I hope we get
to do it again soon.
797
00:30:50,790 --> 00:30:53,123
Just the two of us.
798
00:30:53,125 --> 00:30:55,159
I'm asleep, right?
799
00:30:55,161 --> 00:30:58,162
This is a dream.
800
00:31:00,299 --> 00:31:02,299
Close your eyes
801
00:31:02,301 --> 00:31:04,568
and keep dreaming.
802
00:31:04,570 --> 00:31:05,936
It gets better
803
00:31:05,938 --> 00:31:08,138
and better.
804
00:31:11,043 --> 00:31:12,709
(door opens)
805
00:31:12,711 --> 00:31:14,745
♪ ♪
806
00:31:14,747 --> 00:31:16,079
You happy now, Bishop?
807
00:31:16,081 --> 00:31:18,081
(scoffs)
Two unsolved murders,
808
00:31:18,083 --> 00:31:19,950
Abby's in hell,
I'm in pain,
809
00:31:19,952 --> 00:31:22,252
NCIS is teaming up with
a bunch of fruitcakes.
810
00:31:22,254 --> 00:31:23,520
It's Armageddon.
811
00:31:23,522 --> 00:31:25,722
I didn't do this.
Ha!
812
00:31:25,724 --> 00:31:28,091
Well, the banana peel
didn't work this time.
813
00:31:28,093 --> 00:31:31,195
Abby says raisin enzymes
do the same thing.
814
00:31:31,197 --> 00:31:32,629
But the splinter's
815
00:31:32,631 --> 00:31:34,798
not coming out.
816
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:36,133
No. No.
817
00:31:36,135 --> 00:31:38,335
You cannot blame me
for your finger, too.
818
00:31:38,337 --> 00:31:39,703
Yes, I can.
Absolutely, he can.
819
00:31:39,705 --> 00:31:41,972
(sighs) Okay.
820
00:31:41,974 --> 00:31:45,342
I'm not saying
I believe in this voodoo stuff,
821
00:31:45,344 --> 00:31:48,045
because I don't.
822
00:31:48,047 --> 00:31:50,948
But if I did,
823
00:31:50,950 --> 00:31:53,116
is there something I could do
to reverse the curse?
824
00:31:53,118 --> 00:31:55,352
No. (mouths)
825
00:31:55,354 --> 00:31:57,187
Well, there is one
thing she could do,
826
00:31:57,189 --> 00:31:58,555
but I don't think
she'd like it.
827
00:31:58,557 --> 00:32:00,357
No.
What?
828
00:32:00,359 --> 00:32:01,592
It's too awful.
829
00:32:01,594 --> 00:32:04,294
(bell jingling)
830
00:32:06,365 --> 00:32:07,531
What do we got?
831
00:32:07,533 --> 00:32:08,799
We've got this.
Thanks.
832
00:32:10,302 --> 00:32:13,036
Okay, I give up.
833
00:32:13,038 --> 00:32:14,471
TONY:
It's a silicone impression
834
00:32:14,473 --> 00:32:16,273
of the hole in the tree made
by the mystery bullet
835
00:32:16,275 --> 00:32:17,307
that killed the commander.
836
00:32:17,309 --> 00:32:19,142
McMoldmaker and I
837
00:32:19,144 --> 00:32:21,144
grabbed it when we were
in the woods together.
838
00:32:21,146 --> 00:32:23,614
McGEE: Abby was hoping to use
it to figure out striations,
839
00:32:23,616 --> 00:32:25,582
but these grooves
did not come from a bullet.
840
00:32:25,584 --> 00:32:27,784
They were made by a car key,
probably the only tool
841
00:32:27,786 --> 00:32:30,120
the killer could find to dig
the bullet out of the tree.
842
00:32:30,122 --> 00:32:32,322
And what kind of car does
that key fit?
843
00:32:32,324 --> 00:32:34,525
Impression wasn't clear enough
to pin down.
844
00:32:34,527 --> 00:32:36,360
But Abby made
a list of possibilities.
845
00:32:36,362 --> 00:32:38,362
Mostly trucks
and luxury vehicles.
846
00:32:38,364 --> 00:32:40,831
Why are you telling me this
and not Abby?
847
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:43,534
Abby's not doing too well.
848
00:32:43,536 --> 00:32:45,168
She locked herself in her lab.
849
00:32:45,170 --> 00:32:46,737
Spent the night there
last night, boss.
850
00:32:46,739 --> 00:32:48,305
Yeah, she won't rest
until she finds out
851
00:32:48,307 --> 00:32:50,207
if Michael Hayes
is innocent.
852
00:32:50,209 --> 00:32:51,875
The FBI is handling that.
853
00:32:51,877 --> 00:32:53,544
Yeah, but it's gonna
take two weeks,
854
00:32:53,546 --> 00:32:55,145
so we can either
wait for the FBI,
855
00:32:55,147 --> 00:32:58,148
or we can do the DNA tests
ourselves, today.
856
00:32:59,318 --> 00:33:00,717
All we need
is Michael's DNA.
857
00:33:00,719 --> 00:33:02,686
Prison probably has
that record on file.
858
00:33:04,023 --> 00:33:05,656
How far is the prison
from here?
859
00:33:05,658 --> 00:33:06,690
Hour and a half.
860
00:33:06,692 --> 00:33:07,824
Start driving.
861
00:33:07,826 --> 00:33:09,493
I'll make the call.
862
00:33:09,495 --> 00:33:10,460
(phone beeps)
863
00:33:10,462 --> 00:33:13,163
GIBBS:
Abbs!
864
00:33:13,165 --> 00:33:14,731
Found you.
865
00:33:14,733 --> 00:33:16,867
It's a... it's a little
cluttered in here.
866
00:33:16,869 --> 00:33:18,468
Ya think?
867
00:33:18,470 --> 00:33:20,637
I'm just...
going over a few...
868
00:33:20,639 --> 00:33:22,806
old cases.
869
00:33:22,808 --> 00:33:26,243
Actually, every case
I've ever worked on.
870
00:33:26,245 --> 00:33:27,444
Why?
871
00:33:27,446 --> 00:33:29,446
Triple checking all my work.
872
00:33:29,448 --> 00:33:30,948
It may take a few days.
873
00:33:30,950 --> 00:33:32,015
Days?
874
00:33:32,017 --> 00:33:33,617
(sighs)
You want to talk about days?
875
00:33:33,619 --> 00:33:35,819
How about 5,953 days
876
00:33:35,821 --> 00:33:39,856
that Michael Hayes has been
sitting in prison because of me.
877
00:33:39,858 --> 00:33:41,892
Because of a flawed test.
878
00:33:41,894 --> 00:33:44,027
A flawed test that I conducted.
879
00:33:44,029 --> 00:33:46,096
It only matters that
you did your best.
880
00:33:46,098 --> 00:33:47,965
No... (groans)
881
00:33:47,967 --> 00:33:52,102
Gibbs, no, that is what you say
to someone who fails.
882
00:33:52,104 --> 00:33:55,405
I mean, I know... I did my best.
883
00:33:55,407 --> 00:33:57,908
And I know that sometimes
mistakes are made.
884
00:33:57,910 --> 00:34:00,744
And I know Michael Hayes
might be guilty, anyway.
885
00:34:00,746 --> 00:34:03,714
But if I know all that, then...
886
00:34:03,716 --> 00:34:07,217
why can't I... breathe?
887
00:34:07,219 --> 00:34:09,753
Come here.
888
00:34:10,522 --> 00:34:12,689
All right.
889
00:34:12,691 --> 00:34:13,924
Please...
890
00:34:13,926 --> 00:34:17,260
Gibbs, just... fix this.
891
00:34:17,262 --> 00:34:19,830
You always fix things.
892
00:34:19,832 --> 00:34:22,499
Please, fix this, too.
893
00:34:22,501 --> 00:34:24,134
I'm trying.
894
00:34:29,208 --> 00:34:31,408
I am trying, Abbs.
895
00:34:33,278 --> 00:34:35,145
(indistinct background
radio communication)
896
00:34:35,147 --> 00:34:36,913
TONY:
NCIS.
897
00:34:38,217 --> 00:34:40,283
You here for the couple?
BISHOP: Couple?
898
00:34:40,285 --> 00:34:41,585
What couple?
899
00:34:41,587 --> 00:34:44,154
Well, figure since you're
Navy agents, you heard.
900
00:34:45,024 --> 00:34:45,989
Michael Hayes's parents
901
00:34:45,991 --> 00:34:47,190
just came to visit.
902
00:34:47,192 --> 00:34:49,793
Mm... his mother
died years ago,
903
00:34:49,795 --> 00:34:51,595
and his father
just passed away.
904
00:34:51,597 --> 00:34:52,863
We know.
905
00:34:52,865 --> 00:34:54,031
That's why we detained them.
906
00:34:54,033 --> 00:34:55,399
Who are they?
907
00:34:55,401 --> 00:34:56,700
Won't talk.
908
00:34:56,702 --> 00:35:00,103
Only said they're
on a mission for NCIS.
909
00:35:00,105 --> 00:35:01,204
Bring in the couple.
910
00:35:01,206 --> 00:35:02,339
(over radio): Copy that.
(sighs)
911
00:35:02,341 --> 00:35:03,540
We searched them.
912
00:35:03,542 --> 00:35:05,509
Lady kind of liked it.
913
00:35:05,511 --> 00:35:06,977
Found a weapon.
914
00:35:06,979 --> 00:35:08,111
A weapon?
915
00:35:08,113 --> 00:35:09,146
Scissors--
916
00:35:09,148 --> 00:35:11,448
said they wanted
to give Hayes a haircut.
917
00:35:11,450 --> 00:35:12,582
Oh...
(quiet chuckle)
918
00:35:12,584 --> 00:35:13,950
Like we'd ever
let them near him.
919
00:35:13,952 --> 00:35:15,218
(lock buzzes, latch clicks)
920
00:35:15,220 --> 00:35:16,620
Oh, here they are now.
921
00:35:19,491 --> 00:35:21,124
(sighs)
922
00:35:21,126 --> 00:35:23,527
So what do you want us
to do with these two?
923
00:35:35,368 --> 00:35:37,001
How could you?
924
00:35:37,003 --> 00:35:39,503
You jeopardized
our entire case.
925
00:35:39,505 --> 00:35:42,173
There are rules for a reason.
926
00:35:42,175 --> 00:35:43,974
A man's life is at stake here,
927
00:35:43,976 --> 00:35:47,445
not to mention the career of
a gifted forensic scientist
928
00:35:47,447 --> 00:35:49,814
who's now adrift in
a sea of self doubt.
929
00:35:49,816 --> 00:35:51,482
Sorry...
I'm sorry, Donald.
930
00:35:51,484 --> 00:35:52,917
Oh, please.
931
00:35:52,919 --> 00:35:55,152
You should have left them
to rot in jail.
932
00:35:55,154 --> 00:35:56,387
Ah, ease up on 'em, Duck.
933
00:35:56,389 --> 00:35:58,389
They did the wrong thing
for the right reason.
934
00:35:58,391 --> 00:36:00,491
Well, don't you
go soft on me, now.
935
00:36:00,493 --> 00:36:02,159
Hey, just to be clear,
936
00:36:02,161 --> 00:36:03,761
you're yelling at them,
937
00:36:03,763 --> 00:36:06,363
and not me, right?
938
00:36:06,365 --> 00:36:08,699
Oh, shut up, Lyle.
939
00:36:08,701 --> 00:36:10,000
(door closes)
940
00:36:10,002 --> 00:36:13,137
Donald's right,
we overstepped our boundaries.
941
00:36:13,139 --> 00:36:14,538
Mm-hmm.
942
00:36:14,540 --> 00:36:17,808
So why are you so calm,
Agent Gibbs?
943
00:36:17,810 --> 00:36:20,845
They got Michael Hayes's DNA.
944
00:36:20,847 --> 00:36:22,546
Ms. Sciuto is, no doubt,
945
00:36:22,548 --> 00:36:25,549
running the new DNA test
on it right now.
946
00:36:25,551 --> 00:36:28,385
Walt, I will bet you were
one hell of a detective.
947
00:36:28,387 --> 00:36:30,521
Peanut butter...
948
00:36:30,523 --> 00:36:32,223
Peanut butter.
949
00:36:33,025 --> 00:36:34,725
What?
950
00:36:35,895 --> 00:36:37,928
Sorry.
951
00:36:37,930 --> 00:36:40,364
I noticed Agents
DiNozzo and McGee
952
00:36:40,366 --> 00:36:43,000
uh, had tree sap
on their shoes,
953
00:36:43,002 --> 00:36:44,602
from their time
in the woods.
954
00:36:44,604 --> 00:36:47,338
Which is pretty
observant of me, right?
955
00:36:47,340 --> 00:36:48,639
So, anyway,
956
00:36:48,641 --> 00:36:51,909
I-I researched how to get sap
off of leather,
957
00:36:51,911 --> 00:36:54,311
and... it's peanut butter.
958
00:36:54,313 --> 00:36:56,013
It's the creamy kind,
not chunky.
959
00:36:56,015 --> 00:36:57,281
(phone beeps)
Lyle...
960
00:36:57,283 --> 00:36:58,349
I know.
961
00:36:58,351 --> 00:36:59,483
Shut up?
962
00:36:59,485 --> 00:37:01,785
(phone beeps)
No. You just solved a murder.
963
00:37:01,787 --> 00:37:03,020
Hey, DiNozzo,
964
00:37:03,022 --> 00:37:04,688
I need your finger.
Where are you?
965
00:37:04,690 --> 00:37:07,858
Did he just say
you solved a murder?
966
00:37:07,860 --> 00:37:11,595
Abbs.
Gibbs.
967
00:37:11,597 --> 00:37:12,930
It's not a match.
I know.
968
00:37:13,533 --> 00:37:14,632
(sighs heavily)
969
00:37:14,634 --> 00:37:17,301
This is a perfectly
accurate DNA test.
970
00:37:17,303 --> 00:37:19,270
There's no way
it can be wrong.
971
00:37:19,272 --> 00:37:21,138
It's not a match
to the original hair.
972
00:37:21,140 --> 00:37:23,007
I know, I know.
Michael Hayes is innocent.
973
00:37:23,009 --> 00:37:24,174
What are we gonna do?
974
00:37:24,176 --> 00:37:26,043
I need you to focus.
We're gonna catch a killer.
975
00:37:26,045 --> 00:37:28,546
How?
If I give you a sample of sawdust,
976
00:37:28,548 --> 00:37:30,447
could you match it
to a type of tree?
977
00:37:30,449 --> 00:37:31,615
Oh, yeah.
978
00:37:31,617 --> 00:37:32,816
I can do better than that.
979
00:37:32,818 --> 00:37:34,518
I can tell you the exact
tree that it came from.
980
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:35,653
How?
981
00:37:35,655 --> 00:37:38,489
DNA, Gibbs, it's in
every living thing.
982
00:37:38,491 --> 00:37:39,523
(computer blipping)
983
00:37:39,525 --> 00:37:42,026
Actually, DNA from a tree
984
00:37:42,028 --> 00:37:43,827
is very similar to human DNA.
985
00:37:43,829 --> 00:37:45,396
Good! That's great,
Abbs, great.
986
00:37:45,398 --> 00:37:47,965
Well, but I mean,
to get a match
987
00:37:47,967 --> 00:37:49,233
I would need
the sawdust,
988
00:37:49,235 --> 00:37:51,936
and I'd need a sample from
the tree that it came from.
989
00:37:51,938 --> 00:37:53,571
Uh... be back in five minutes.
990
00:37:56,042 --> 00:37:58,976
Boss cut me.
991
00:37:58,978 --> 00:38:00,578
Head slaps are one thing, but...
992
00:38:00,580 --> 00:38:02,646
don't you think I've
suffered enough, Bishop?
993
00:38:02,648 --> 00:38:04,548
You know what, Bishop?
994
00:38:04,550 --> 00:38:05,950
You're the only one
that can fix this.
995
00:38:05,952 --> 00:38:06,951
Yeah...
996
00:38:06,953 --> 00:38:08,652
Okay.
997
00:38:12,425 --> 00:38:13,991
Attention, squad room.
998
00:38:13,993 --> 00:38:15,125
Louder!
Louder!
999
00:38:15,127 --> 00:38:18,429
(loudly):
Attention, squad room!
1000
00:38:19,632 --> 00:38:21,932
I, Eleanor Bishop,
1001
00:38:21,934 --> 00:38:25,235
am asking the spirits
of criminal science
1002
00:38:25,237 --> 00:38:27,438
for a really hectic day.
1003
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,173
A-a crazy day, where
1004
00:38:29,175 --> 00:38:32,509
lots of things go terribly,
1005
00:38:32,511 --> 00:38:34,511
terribly wrong.
1006
00:38:34,513 --> 00:38:35,646
There you go.
1007
00:38:36,515 --> 00:38:37,681
Thank you.
1008
00:38:37,683 --> 00:38:39,883
(elevator bell dings)
1009
00:38:40,553 --> 00:38:41,919
Never know, it might work.
1010
00:38:41,921 --> 00:38:43,153
(whispering)#
Here comes our guy.
1011
00:38:43,155 --> 00:38:44,788
Thanks.
1012
00:38:45,825 --> 00:38:46,790
JASON:
Excuse me.
1013
00:38:46,792 --> 00:38:48,325
Agent Gibbs asked me
to come in.
1014
00:38:48,327 --> 00:38:49,493
Ah, yes, Mr. Tupperman.
1015
00:38:49,495 --> 00:38:50,628
He's expecting you.
1016
00:38:50,630 --> 00:38:51,629
Hi, Jason. How are you?
1017
00:38:51,631 --> 00:38:52,896
Oh.
1018
00:38:52,898 --> 00:38:54,665
Would you like
a glass of water?
1019
00:38:54,667 --> 00:38:56,200
Thank you.
1020
00:39:00,206 --> 00:39:02,106
Perfect. Thank you.
1021
00:39:02,108 --> 00:39:04,041
McGEE: I noticed,
coming in this morning--
1022
00:39:04,043 --> 00:39:05,809
it's pretty crowded out there.
1023
00:39:05,811 --> 00:39:07,678
Did you find parking okay?
1024
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:08,679
Sure, yeah.
1025
00:39:08,681 --> 00:39:10,648
No, I just used your valet.
1026
00:39:11,851 --> 00:39:14,084
What is this?
1027
00:39:14,086 --> 00:39:15,753
Hey, Tupperman...
1028
00:39:16,756 --> 00:39:19,556
...there is no valet.
1029
00:39:26,365 --> 00:39:28,232
JASON (recorded): When they
arrested Michael, on the ship,
1030
00:39:28,234 --> 00:39:31,368
in 1999, I wanted to confess
there and then.
1031
00:39:31,370 --> 00:39:34,872
And every day, I woke up,
I told myself
1032
00:39:34,874 --> 00:39:36,573
I was gonna
tell the truth, but...
1033
00:39:36,575 --> 00:39:39,977
I don't know, I just...
I couldn't do it.
1034
00:39:39,979 --> 00:39:43,414
I do not regret killing
Lieutenant Swannie.
1035
00:39:43,416 --> 00:39:47,584
But I do regret allowing my
best friend to take the fall.
1036
00:39:47,586 --> 00:39:51,722
For 16 years, Michael and I
lived the wrong lives.
1037
00:39:51,724 --> 00:39:52,856
(recorder beeps off)
1038
00:39:52,858 --> 00:39:55,626
So how did Gibbs come
to suspect Tupperman?
1039
00:39:55,628 --> 00:39:57,561
Tree sap.
1040
00:39:57,563 --> 00:39:59,163
Yeah, when Gibbs noticed
1041
00:39:59,165 --> 00:40:00,831
the dark stains
on Tupperman's shoes,
1042
00:40:00,833 --> 00:40:03,067
he didn't think
anything about it
1043
00:40:03,069 --> 00:40:05,069
until Lyle, here,
1044
00:40:05,071 --> 00:40:07,171
saw the same stains...
1045
00:40:07,173 --> 00:40:09,873
on the shoes of Agents
McGee and DiNozzo.
1046
00:40:09,875 --> 00:40:11,542
It's circumstantial.
1047
00:40:11,544 --> 00:40:16,113
Yes, until Ms. Sciuto
matched the sawdust
1048
00:40:16,115 --> 00:40:18,482
in the teeth of
Tupperman's car keys
1049
00:40:18,484 --> 00:40:20,284
with the splinter...
1050
00:40:20,286 --> 00:40:22,920
in Agent DiNozzo's finger.
1051
00:40:22,922 --> 00:40:25,656
DNA proved that they both came
1052
00:40:25,658 --> 00:40:27,758
from the same
White Eastern Pine
1053
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:31,762
that stood directly behind
where the commander was shot.
1054
00:40:31,764 --> 00:40:33,931
The witness tree...
1055
00:40:33,933 --> 00:40:36,133
did, in fact, testify.
1056
00:40:36,135 --> 00:40:39,036
And Fireman Bennett
had nothing to do with it?
1057
00:40:39,038 --> 00:40:42,106
Oh, once a scapegoat,
always a scapegoat.
1058
00:40:45,211 --> 00:40:47,444
Where's my Gibbs?
1059
00:40:47,446 --> 00:40:49,646
He sends his regrets.
1060
00:40:49,648 --> 00:40:50,714
Oh.
1061
00:40:50,716 --> 00:40:51,982
Oh, it's fine.
1062
00:40:51,984 --> 00:40:53,450
I'll be seeing
lots of him, anyway.
1063
00:40:53,452 --> 00:40:56,687
Agent McGee and I
are collaborating
1064
00:40:56,689 --> 00:40:58,155
on a new crime novel,
1065
00:40:58,157 --> 00:40:59,823
and I'm basing
my main character
1066
00:40:59,825 --> 00:41:03,927
on a silver-haired devil
short on words,
1067
00:41:03,929 --> 00:41:06,697
but his eyes say plenty.
1068
00:41:06,699 --> 00:41:07,798
(chuckling)
1069
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:08,999
Heavens.
1070
00:41:09,001 --> 00:41:11,068
Please, keep me out of it.
1071
00:41:11,070 --> 00:41:12,870
Of course.
1072
00:41:12,872 --> 00:41:15,773
And, uh...
please accept my resignation.
1073
00:41:15,775 --> 00:41:17,574
Donald! No!
1074
00:41:17,576 --> 00:41:19,243
I'm sorry, Walter,
1075
00:41:19,245 --> 00:41:21,011
the-the-the conflict
of interest
1076
00:41:21,013 --> 00:41:22,479
weighs too heavily on me.
1077
00:41:22,481 --> 00:41:24,047
I've made up my mind.
1078
00:41:24,049 --> 00:41:27,417
But I-I understand,
from the house rules,
1079
00:41:27,419 --> 00:41:29,119
I can name an apt replacement?
1080
00:41:29,121 --> 00:41:30,854
Is that true?
1081
00:41:30,856 --> 00:41:33,390
My house, my rules.
1082
00:41:33,392 --> 00:41:34,625
DUCKY:
So...
1083
00:41:34,627 --> 00:41:38,729
I would like to pass
the magnifying glass to someone
