NCIS: Hawai'i (2021) s02e14 Episode Script

Silent Invasion

George. George.
- What?
- I heard something downstairs.
It's just the house settling.
It sounded like a door opening.
Go back to sleep.
I won't be able to unless you
Unless I check it out.
Please.
George, is everything okay?
What's up, Doc?
We praying?
Absorbing the stillness that
only the dead can truly attain.
Okay, well, our victim's not
getting any fresher. May I?
Oh, by all means.
Lacerated blood vessels
around a fractured supraorbital foramen
indicate Captain Bernal was
killed by blunt force trauma.
His wife succumbed to a similar injury.
No sign of sexual assault on either.
Almost looks like bite marks.
Any idea what the murder weapon was?
A small, blunt object
with serrated edges.
Wielded with great force.
Doesn't exactly narrow it down.
Not yet, but have faith.
How long have they been dead?
Both bodies have entered
secondary flaccidity.
Best guess? 48 hours.
Which tracks.
Captain Bernal didn't report
for work the last two days.
His office called HPD for a
wellness check this morning.
All right, talk me through what we know.
So, the intruder surprised
Captain Bernal here.
Took him down.
Intruder then headed upstairs
and the bedroom was ransacked
after Mrs. Bernal was murdered.
How do you know?
Check this out.
Blood streaked on the drawers
and the wall safe.
Here.
Jewelry and valuables stolen.
The classic robbery gone wrong.
Or as intended.
- Maybe our suspect wanted to hurt them.
- Maybe.
But here's where it gets weird.
There is no sign of forced entry.
No broken locks.
No smashed windows.
- And get this
- You're about to tell me
that the alarm was still
armed when HPD arrived.
Yeah.
How'd you know?
Well, because I've seen it before.
Seven years ago.
Rebecca Fox, 17 years old,
daughter of Admiral Jason Fox,
Pac fleet commander at the time.
I mean, the case got national attention.
- We were full-court press.
- And you think the cases are related?
I know they are.
It's a bit of a stretch, isn't it?
Other than robberies gone wrong.
Look, no sign of forced
entry. Alarm engaged.
Victims beaten with a similar weapon.
No trace evidence. There's
all kinds of the same.
Okay. When was the alarm first armed
at Captain Bernal's house?
Security company said it
was turned on two nights ago,
at 9:00 p.m., and was
never turned off again.
Well, then how did
the killer gain access?
Second story window above the garage.
The sensor was deactivated.
Suspect climbed up a tree.
Yeah, that's the one
detail that's different.
Rebecca Fox's killer had a key.
How is that possible?
Petty Officer Sean Clark.
He's Admiral Fox's enlisted aide,
which means he would have
a key and the alarm code.
And Clark confessed to the murder.
Okay. Where's he now?
Serving life at Halawa.
Then he didn't do it.
Clark may not have murdered
the Bernals himself,
but these cases are related.
You thinking copycat?
You know, guys spend
a lot of time in prison
trading war stories.
Maybe Clark inspired another inmate.
I know it's not a lot to go on,
but I also know I'm not wrong.
All right. Let's see if you're right.
We should meet with the
lead agent on the Fox case.
Pick their brain.
That may be a little bit complicated.
Lead agent was Jim Carter.
What? What am I missing?
Carter's no longer with NCIS.
And I'm the reason why.
Who am I?
Who am I?
Who am I?
- Carla Chase?
- Incorrect, actually.
At least, I'm not entirely Carla Chase.
Nor are you entirely Ernie Malik.
I go by many names, especially online.
Cool setup, by the way.
I take it you're mapping
the insular cortex
by asking yourself, "Who am I?"
Ooh, close.
I was practicing
self-inquiry meditation.
- Ah, Ramana Maharshi.
- Yes!
Though he derived it from
the ancient Hindu tradition
- of Advaita Vedanta.
- Ooh.
Something tells me
that the ancient gurus
didn't use electrodes
to reach enlightenment.
Well, they didn't have
hot and cold running water.
Antibiotics, either.
Technology isn't all bad.
Who you telling?
As much as I enjoy
our metaphysical chats,
I'm assuming you're here with a purpose.
Jesse's convinced the Bernal murders
connect to an old case.
I brought you the autopsy file.
Clearly, you didn't look at it.
I assisted on the original autopsy.
My first assignment at AFMES.
Oh.
Well, you think Jesse's right?
The evidence suggests he is.
The wound patterns for both
cases are almost identical.
Likely caused by a tactical flashlight.
How can you tell?
The teeth along the bezel
match the indentations
around the victims' injuries.
Rebecca Fox was struck on the left brow,
shattering her orbit and forehead.
So were the Bernals.
All three victims were
struck at close range
in nearly the same place
while facing their assailant.
- Did you get an DNA from the Bernal house?
- No.
This killer was exceedingly careful.
And precise.
We have enough to suggest
these murders are connected
But not enough to point to a suspect.
Well, there is one suspect already
convicted of the first crime.
Maybe he has the answer.
Sean Clark worked as Admiral
Fox's aide for months.
Knew every detail of
his home and his routine.
Then snuck into his house,
beat his daughter to death
and watched as her life drained away.
- How do you know that last part?
- It's in the confession.
He then calmly stole about
$20,000 worth of cash and jewelry
and walked into the night.
- Point being?
- That he's a stone-cold killer.
- Probably won't share much with you.
- I don't know.
- I can be pretty persuasive.
- I know, boss,
but do me a favor
don't proffer anything
off of his sentence.
Sean Clark doesn't deserve
to see daylight again.
I'm just gonna talk to him, Jesse.
Mr. Clark.
I'm Special Agent in
Charge Jane Tennant. NCIS.
I've been expecting you.
- You have?
- Yeah.
I knew at some point
you guys would realize
I'm an innocent man.
I'm confused, Mr. Clark.
Please, call me Sean.
You confessed to Rebecca
Fox's murder, Sean.
But now you claim you're innocent.
I am innocent. Always have been.
Except when you signed your confession.
Because I was coerced.
Which I've attested to dozens of times
over the last seven years.
First I'm hearing of it.
Then why are you here?
Because of a double homicide
that is similar to Rebecca's murder.
I need to know who you've been
talking to about your crimes.
Cellmates,
- family, friends
- I don't have cellmates,
family or friends anymore.
Just a lawyer that
barely takes my calls.
Clearly, you're talking
to someone, Sean.
Because they mimicked your killing.
What part of "I'm innocent"
don't you understand?!
I'm sorry.
So, why confess to
something that you didn't do?
People make false
confessions all the time.
I tried to recant the
next day. Ask Agent Carter.
Your DNA, your fingerprints
were all over the Fox house.
I was Admiral Fox's enlisted aide.
I practically lived at his
house, doing his chores.
Spent more time there
than my own apartment.
You were the only one
who had the alarm code.
The key.
The combination to the safe.
Clearly, I wasn't.
Then who?
Maybe whoever did this.
The DNA "evidence" is
how Carter got me to sign.
Told me I'd be facing life
without parole if I didn't man up.
Now it's only 20 to life.
I was exhausted. He wore me down.
So he wrote up the
confession and I signed it
hoping that someone would
come up with the truth.
- Carter wrote it up?
- Yeah.
It's all on the tape.
You'll see how he forced me into this.
I'll look into it, Sean.
- No. I'm never gonna see you again.
- Hey.
If there's any validity to what
you're saying, I'll find it.
The truth won't stay hidden forever.
I think Rebecca caught
you robbing her house
and you made a big mistake.
But you didn't mean to kill her.
I didn't kill her.
I didn't rob anything. I wasn't there.
Hey, hey, hey, I'm on your side. Okay?
I'm the only one that is.
Carter's got technique,
I'll give him that.
You should just take it easy
Five hours in and he
hasn't broken a sweat
or raised his voice.
Yeah, I mean, he was
the best at good cop.
You know, he was all "pal" and "buddy"
until he closed the deal.
Look, buddy, I get it.
Admiral Fox he's an arrogant ass.
He refused to recommend
you to officer training.
Told me I needed to wait six months.
That's an eternity carrying his water.
Sometimes being good at
your job works against you.
Gets you stuck in a crap position.
Could make anyone lose their cool.
Make a bad decision. Let that anger out.
Clark is at his breaking point.
Yeah, this is when
Carter will close it up.
Just tell me everything.
I think I need a lawyer.
Whoa.
Didn't see that coming.
No, that's 'cause it wasn't supposed to.
First I'm gonna, I'm
gonna get you some food.
- Wait, what happened?
- I don't know.
A computer glitch or something?
Now read it.
And sign.
Did we just skip ahead?
No, man, this isn't this isn't right.
Look at the time code.
A whole hour has passed.
The camera got shut off.
Hard part's done.
I'm proud of you.
I don't get it.
Clark was adamant he was
innocent the whole night, right?
Never once confirmed
any of the accusations.
And then, what he just caves?
What happened?
Jim Carter happened.
He broke Clark, didn't
want a record of it,
so he cut the camera.
That's quite the accusation, boss.
You're thinking it too.
I don't know what I'm thinking.
Okay, well, I just spent
the afternoon with a man
who's pretty damn sure
that he's innocent.
Told you not to let him get to you.
Have you ever spent
time with Sean Clark?
No, I was there when he was arrested.
- But no, not really.
- He just doesn't seem like
the cold-blooded killing type.
- So, what are you saying?
- I don't know yet.
Let's focus on some facts.
We got an inventory of everything
that was stolen from the Bernal home.
Might lead us to their killer.
All right, I'll have Ernie look at that.
Cross-reference them
with the known fences.
Check pawnshops, too.
- I can do it.
- I actually need you for something else.
Carter.
You want me to ask about
the missing hour on the tape?
Look, it's better
coming from you than me.
Okay? You don't need to confront him.
Just find out if there's anything
about the case that we're missing.
Like that hour.
Yeah. On it, boss.
Damn it, Boone.
I look a thousand years older.
You just look prettier.
Clean living.
- I like the threads.
- Yeah, head of security, huh?
Silky smooth.
- Big man on campus. How's the gig?
- It's sweet.
There's more money, less
blood on the wingtips.
Are you looking to make a move?
I can make that happen.
- Ah, I still don't mind the blood.
- Really?
Let me show you around. Huh?
Maybe you'll change your mind.
Yeah, I don't know if I
got time for the grand tour,
but I was, uh,
I was hoping there was
someplace we could chat.
- That's your serious face.
- Oh
You want help with a case?
One of your old cases, actually.
- I didn't leave any open cases, kiddo.
- No, it's not open,
but, uh, you recall the, uh
- Rebecca Fox murder, right?
- Oh, yeah.
I still talk to her father
every year on the anniversary.
I'm working a robbery
turned double homicide.
But get this the
alarm was still armed
when HPD arrived, just like Fox.
Okay, that sounds like a coincidence.
Ah, there's some other
details too, you know?
I was hoping we could go to your office.
I want to walk you through it
'cause it might help
clear up both cases.
Sean Clark killed Rebecca Fox.
- There's nothing to clear up there.
- That's not what I meant, Jimmy.
It's just, I don't remember all
the specifics about your case,
and there might be some details in there
- that could help with mine.
- She sent you, didn't she?
Who, Tennant?
I mean, yeah. She's the boss, so
- Ha.
- She is, Jimmy.
And we're working a case
that resembles yours, so
If she wants to find
out about the Fox case
she can look up the
files, watch the tape,
read the fricking headlines.
It's closed.
Well, about that tape
- What about it?
- Well, there's,
like, an hour missing.
What do you know about that?
Well, it's almost
nice to see you, kiddo.
- Come on, Jimmy.
- No.
She wants to accuse me of some B.S.,
she's got to man up.
Do it herself.
Alex, dinner.
All right, girlie, we
are gonna eat real quick
and then I am gonna teach you
the secret Tennant slipknot maneuver
guaranteed to deliver goals.
- That's okay, Mom.
- No, no, no, I promised
when you were ready, and you
have club tryouts tomorrow.
I better focus on my science reading.
Um, said Julie Tennant never.
No, really. I'm behind, and
Oh, my God, Jules. Just tell her.
Tell me what?
Nothing.
Mom's gonna find out anyways.
I will. Obviously. So let's
cut out the middle man.
- It's it's just that
- Jules isn't trying out for soccer.
- What?
- Alex.
Come in. Why?
I just don't feel like it.
Translation being the
team captain's mean to her.
Alex.
- Julie.
- Hello.
Jim.
I mean, you said come in, so
Sure. Please, come in.
Hey, guys, can I just get
a second? Just, can you
You sent Boone to interrogate me?
I sent him to ask for help.
If you're calling me into question,
do it to my face.
That's not what's happening.
You don't have to use your
library voice with me, Tennant.
Keeping up appearances. Just us here.
Actually, my kids are in the other room.
As you know.
You've had it out for
me the minute you met me.
And you won.
You fired me.
I didn't fire you.
No. No, that's right.
Jane Tennant doesn't do the dirty work.
You just
you just made sure I had
no other choice but to quit.
You were openly hostile
and insubordinate.
I was effective
and that pissed you off.
You ignored all of my directions
and made my job harder.
So I reported you to the IG and you
you resigned.
You remember it however you want.
You're still doing it.
Still making my job harder.
You cut the camera for an hour
during your interrogation of Sean Clark.
Why?
It's not against the
law. Not my question.
- Why'd you do it?
- I don't have to take this.
I'm sorry.
Am I standing in your home
with your kids in the other room?
Well, this was a waste of time.
If you coerced Clark into
confessing, I'll find out.
He just turns up at her place?
Yeah, with Alex and Julie right there.
This guy your friend?
He was like a mentor, you know?
Something changed when
Tennant showed up to Pearl.
He just had it made up in
his mind she was no good.
- Our Tennant?
- Yeah,
it's crazy.
And when she made SAC, he lost it.
- Probably 'cause she got promoted over him.
- Don't know.
Partly. But, I mean, he gave
the last SAC a hard time, too.
One of those cowboy cops, you know?
Old-school mentality.
So, what's she gonna do about him?
Hit the gym. Beat up the heavy bag.
Focus on the case.
Ernie said it's, uh,
stall with the flags, right?
This is our fence.
Hey, Vinh, right? Yeah, we emailed you
about that '82 Rolex Submariner.
Yeah, is it, uh
I don't see it in here.
I don't keep the good stuff on display.
Only for serious connoisseurs.
Don't worry. I got you.
- Sweet little piece, right?
- Oh, yeah.
Looks familiar?
Just what we were looking for.
Matte dial,
original crystal. Mint
condition, brother.
Oh, it's not completely mint.
Serial number's scratched off.
Ain't nothing in life is perfect.
- Just a little wear and tear.
- It's interesting.
Wear and tear only
affected the serial number.
You guys gonna make an offer or not?
Yeah, here's the offer.
We're gonna take the watch,
the rest of them, too.
And you into custody. Federal agents.
That watch was likely
stolen in a robbery.
Cool down, guys, I-I didn't
rob nothing from nobody.
Okay, you guys want the watches?
Take 'em, bro!
- Damn it.
- Why didn't you grab him?
Hey, why didn't you grab him?
- Move, move, move.
- Whoa!
- Wardrobe change.
- All right. Split up.
We got to find him fast.
Sorry.
Federal agent. Move!
Hey, buddy, federal agents.
I need your cart. Thanks.
Should have just given us the watch.
All right, I'm out of here.
Hey, don't forget your lunch.
I'll just grab something at school.
Or you can take the bento box
that I just spent 30
minutes making for you.
I'm not gonna have much time.
- Alex, there's always time for lunch.
- Mom.
What the heck, Alex?
Just take it, okay? Don't be an ass.
Uh yeah. Sure. Good plan.
Uh, so
What was that?
I know, right? He's so rude.
I meant you, sweetie.
You seem very passionate about
your brother's lunch today.
- He should be nicer.
- Sure.
But there's something else.
Is this about soccer tryouts?
No. I'm gonna try out.
Okay, then what?
You know that Carter guy last night?
Why did he talk to you like that?
Well
He and I used to work together.
But we didn't really get along.
That doesn't really tell me anything.
- It's kind of hard to explain.
- Try.
Jim Carter doesn't like me very much.
He didn't like having me as his boss.
And he let everyone know.
So he's a bully.
Well, yeah. Sort of.
But the way he sees it,
I'm the bully.
How could he think that?
I have asked myself that
for a very long time.
Don't have a good answer.
Well, I like you.
Thanks, baby.
I like you, too.
And I want to punch that
Carter guy in the face.
Oh, man.
- Morning, guys.
- Morning, boss.
Hey. Triple Red Eye, as requested.
You are a godsend. Thank you.
- Did you get anything from the fence?
- No.
Lawyered up. Not talking.
But we don't need him to
because all his stuff is hot.
About 60 grand in stolen watches.
None linked to the Bernals, though.
Got it. So we're nowhere.
Not exactly.
One of the watches
tracks to another admiral
who was robbed last year.
- Wait, I'm sorry. Another admiral?
- Yeah, in Norfolk.
He was beaten as well, but he survived.
So we have three robberies
involving high-ranking Navy officials
in two different cities.
More than a coincidence, I'd say.
- No, that's a pattern.
- Figure our suspect stole the watch
in Norfolk and sold it here in Hawai'i.
Okay, that suggests that
when he robbed Admiral Fox
seven years ago, he got rid
of the property somewhere else.
If the same suspect robbed Admiral Fox.
It's becoming less and less of an "if."
Let's check NCIC.
Find out if any of
Admiral Fox's property
showed up over the
years in other cities.
You okay after last night?
I'm fine. Julie, not so much.
She and Alex saw the whole thing.
Well, maybe it's time I go to his place,
rearrange his attitude.
I appreciate your willingness
to avenge my honor,
- but I handled it.
- Yeah, but you shouldn't have to.
I mean, it's kind of my fault.
How on earth is Carter your fault?
I was too nice to him.
- Made him feel like we're on the same side.
- Okay, look,
Carter's issues with me
have nothing to do with you.
Plus, I sent you to make nice with him.
I didn't mean yesterday.
When you took over SAC,
I was one of the boys
sitting on the sidelines
watching you and Carter hash it out.
That wasn't your fight.
And you weren't alone.
Everybody loved Carter,
and everybody wanted to protect him.
Yeah, we were all wrong.
He played by his own rules.
Didn't listen to the bosses.
But your intervention
wouldn't have mattered.
Carter was never gonna
tolerate me as boss.
You could say that again.
This guy definitely has the
control aversion of a teenager.
- Control aversion?
- He hates being told what to do.
By SACs, his wife, the dentist.
At least, according to his email.
You hacked his email?
No. I mean yes.
His, uh, deactivated NCIS
email. Not his personal one.
- Though I could if you want
- It's We're fine.
Uh, all right. What'd you find?
As important as the Rebecca
Fox investigation was,
he was cutting corners
to close the case.
Well, there was a lot of
pressure to find the suspect.
Not just the suspect.
Any suspect.
- What do you mean?
- There are some emails here
about a witness named Don Mercado.
Claimed he saw the
killer leave the Fox house
the night of the murder.
I don't remember a witness
statement from a Don Mercado.
That's because Carter didn't include it.
He met with Mercado.
Deemed him unreliable
because he was homeless.
Told the SAC at the
time it was a dead end.
Carter didn't think he was reliable
because he was homeless?
Do we have any idea
what Mercado's story was?
Well, that is not on the email.
But I did track Mercado down
at a homeless shelter in Chinatown.
There's literally hundreds of people
that go in and out of here all day.
Maybe that volunteer can help.
Excuse me.
- Sorry to interrupt.
- One sec, hold on.
Special Agents Boone and Holman. NCIS.
We're, uh, looking for a regular
resident here named Don Mercado.
He's not a resident anymore.
But you have found him.
I run the place.
How can I help?
Been thinking about this a long time.
So, you remember making
a witness statement?
I remember like it was yesterday.
- It was so spooky.
- Spooky how?
Like seeing a kepalo climb
out somebody's second-story window
in the middle of the night.
- Kepalo?
- It's like a evil spirit.
- Or the bogeyman.
- Yeah.
If the bogeyman wore a red Hazmat suit.
He was wearing a Hazmat suit?
That's what it looked like. Freaky.
Can you tell us anything
else about this guy you saw?
Short. Stocky.
Couldn't see his face
'cause of the mask.
And he was turned away
when he took it off.
- But he took his mask off?
- In the yard before he left.
His back was to me. He had sandy hair.
Sean Clark has dark hair,
and is about six foot.
You said all this in your
statement to the authorities?
A Special Agent Carter.
- And what'd he say?
- Nothing.
Thanked me for my statement.
Never got back to me.
But the guy in the red Hazmat
suit coming out of the window?
Real as you and me.
Hazmat suit
explains the lack of DNA.
- Could help us track a suspect.
- Yeah, I did some research.
Level A Hazmat suits
are often red in color.
Submariners have access to
escape immersion equipment.
Resembles a red Hazmat suit.
Yes, but Sean Clark didn't work anywhere
near chemicals or submarines.
No, but he had the code to the alarm,
and how would a suspect avoid
triggering it without that?
What if he was already in the house
when Rebecca set the alarm?
So, he was hiding there for hours?
You'd think Carter would
have found some evidence.
Unless he missed it.
Like he missed Don Mercado.
Go back to the Fox house.
See if you can find
a viable hiding place.
Must be hard on the admiral.
Having us stir all this up again.
He doesn't come here
much anymore, anyway.
I don't blame him.
That must be the window
- Don saw the killer exiting through.
- Active neighborhood.
He'd have to enter
early and wait all day.
Could be an attic.
Let's check it out.
Feels like no one's
been up here for decades,
- let alone years.
- Yeah.
Alarm sensor was only activated
if the window's closed,
so, suspect could have left it open.
And then what just hung out?
Well, if he was a submariner,
hanging around in a small
space is no big deal.
Will you look at that?
It's a depression in
the insulation there.
Somebody was sitting there.
Tracks with Mercado's statement.
- Hey, you got a glove on you?
- Yeah.
Maybe our suspect
wasn't as careful as he thought.
Hopefully kind enough to
leave behind a little DNA.
How did Carter miss all this?
This place feels completely different.
Yeah, well, got a
face-lift a few years ago.
Nah, it's not that. It's the smell.
It's too clean.
Maybe I just need to
mark my territory again.
Hey, how you doing?
Jim Carter.
This used to be my desk.
Kai Holman.
Yeah, I guess it's mine now.
Hell of a grip guy, Kai. You serve?
Yeah, Marines.
It's nice to meet a fellow devil dog.
Excuse me.
One of hers, huh?
Love the decor.
But it doesn't feel like too
much police work happens in here.
Hey, Jimmy, we're in
the conference room.
Why don't you ask me your questions?
No, we're gonna wait
for boss to do that.
Yeah, making me wait.
It's a real power move.
Yeah.
- Hey, get up.
- I'm cool.
I'm just gonna hang right here.
So,
make yourself comfortable.
Isn't this awkward?
It's only 'cause you're trying so hard.
You have him trained really good.
Let's talk Rebecca Fox.
Okay. What am I looking at
bad insulation?
That's Admiral Fox's attic,
and evidence that somebody
was hiding in there for hours.
That's a stretch.
No, Carter, that's a detail.
And the devil is in the details.
- This proves nothing.
- In this case,
the devil's in a tobacco tin
that we found in that attic.
Forensics pulled DNA from it
and they're running it now.
But it's not Sean Clark.
- What do you want from me?
- I want you to pay attention.
Okay, we have DNA, the
attic, and a witness who saw
a suspect climb from
the second story window.
Is this the homeless guy who cried wolf?
And we've just confirmed that someone
was hiding in the Bernal attic.
My case is connected to your case.
Maybe.
It's possible you got it wrong.
You brought me here
to rub it in my face.
I'm asking for your help.
Okay, what do you notice in this file?
Were Bernal and Fox
connected? What are we missing?
I don't know.
It's been, uh
You know, it's been seven years.
I mean, I'm not the
Huh.
- What?
- Well, that's something.
Both victims were insured by
the same insurance company.
Maybe that's how the
killer targeted them.
Captain Bernal and Admiral
Fox's home insurance policies had
- the same underwriter.
- Wait, but it doesn't seem strange.
High-ranking naval officers
stationed in Hawai'i.
Fair enough. It does
start to get strange
when we look at the other regions.
I've got six policies from six
different officers all over the country.
Each one robbed in the last seven years.
Including two in Norfolk, huh?
Those two robberies happened
in the same week last year.
Your fence's Rolex was stolen
as well as some diamond earrings,
a tennis bracelet, two necklaces.
Hey, any of the other robberies
include violent assault?
Four of the six.
So, who's the underwriter?
Carrie Holland.
36 years old, lives
in Carson City, Nevada,
and has a brother
Petty Officer Jeffrey
Holland, 30 years old,
who happens to be a submariner.
You called it.
Holland's service record
lines up with each and
every one of the robberies.
So, he's using his sister's database
to identify high-value targets.
He had means and opportunity.
Where is he now?
Uh, sub's still at Pearl.
Let's go pick him up.
I already reached out to his post.
He's been on liberty
for the last few days.
C.O. has no idea where he is.
Okay, team. We tracked the suspect's
cell phone to this neighborhood,
which means his next target is
likely one of the houses here.
He may already be hiding
in one of the homes,
so we need to get the families to safety
and search every inch of
every one of the homes.
Consider the suspect
armed and dangerous.
Any questions?
Let's roll.
- All the houses evacuated?
- Almost.
Agents are trying to coax
an old lady out of her home.
As soon as they do,
REACT's got the green light
- to search all the houses.
- All right.
- Scarlett? Scarlett?
- Ma'am. Ma'am.
- Please, you have to let me go back.
- Calm down. Over here.
- What's going on?
- My daughter.
She was here and-and she's gone.
I think she went back into the house.
- Why would she do that?
- The cat.
She-she wanted to get the
cat. I told her no, but
- Please, let me go get her.
- It's okay. Look, I'll go.
- I'll go with you.
- No, I need you out here in the lookout.
If Holland's in that house,
I don't want him slipping out
the window when I'm inside.
I don't want him slipping
in behind you either.
All right, stay outside but stay close.
Scarlett?
Scarlett, you home?
I'm sorry.
Oh. Hey.
It's okay. Are you Scarlett?
I'm Jane.
What's your cat's name?
- Pinkie.
- Pinkie.
Hey, can I hold Pinkie?
Okay.
Guess what? Your mom's a
little worried about you.
So, what do you say
you, me and Pinkie go find her?
Yeah? Okay, come on.
Hi.
Can you get Scarlett and
Pinkie back to their family?
- Okay.
- Thank you. Bye, Scarlett.
Someone's upstairs.
Think it's Holland?
Thinking we find out. Quietly.
You okay?
- Yeah. You?
- Yeah.
We get him?
We got him.
Suspect down. All clear.
Copy.
I heard you got the guy who
killed your captain and his wife.
Yeah. It's a submariner
named, uh, Jeffrey Holland.
His DNA matched the tobacco tin
that we found in Admiral Fox's attic.
Okay.
Means Clark's innocent.
He'll be exonerated.
Well, why you telling me?
He spent seven years in prison
for something he didn't do, Jimmy.
What do you want?
I did the work.
I followed the leads.
I got the confession.
- If he was innocent
- He is innocent.
Then he shouldn't have confessed.
You know what you did in
that interrogation room.
Yeah. My job.
- No, your job is to uphold the law.
- Which I did.
Yeah? Then why cut the tape?
You know, kiddo
nobody would have given a crap
about the tape if Clark had done it.
- Okay, but he didn't do it, Jimmy.
- Yeah,
but everyone and I mean
everyone, including you
was convinced he was the guy.
That's the job.
Win some, lose some.
Now, look, just
Stay in touch, Jesse.
Or don't.
- Mom.
- Mom.
Are you guys making dinner?
Don't be so shocked, Mom.
Okay, I'm just trying
to figure out your angle.
- There's no angle.
- 'Cause we're not getting a dog.
Mom, we're just trying
to take care of you.
How are you?
I'm okay.
It's been a rough few days for you.
Let's eat on the lanai.
But you guys are really freaking me out.
Does this have anything
to do with your tryouts?
Other than I made the team?
Baby, yeah!
She's leaving a part out.
Sit down.
I walked up to the
team captain and said,
"Becca, we may not like each other,
but we're on the same team.
So let's act like it."
Wow. And what did she say?
Uh, she kind of made a
face and then walked away.
But not everyone can
like you, right, Mom?
Yeah.
Right. Um
Look, I'm okay.
Really.
Here you go, Mama.
- Yes.
- Dig in.
Thank you. It smells amazing.
Now about that dog.
