1
00:00:13,914 --> 00:00:16,117
(wind blowing gently)
2
00:00:17,985 --> 00:00:20,020
(Parker exhales)
3
00:00:21,489 --> 00:00:24,458
(ringing)
4
00:00:26,694 --> 00:00:28,496
(sighs)
5
00:00:28,596 --> 00:00:29,763
(grunts)
6
00:00:29,863 --> 00:00:32,466
Somebody better
be dead or dying.
7
00:00:35,669 --> 00:00:37,471
When?
8
00:00:38,872 --> 00:00:40,774
Has it been confirmed?
9
00:00:42,176 --> 00:00:43,944
Are you sure?
10
00:00:48,849 --> 00:00:52,320
Okay. Okay, got it. Understood.
11
00:00:56,890 --> 00:00:58,992
(sighs)
12
00:01:01,362 --> 00:01:02,830
McGee, get your ass
into the office.
13
00:01:02,930 --> 00:01:04,131
Wake everyone up.
14
00:01:04,132 --> 00:01:07,268
Do not pass go,
do not collect $200.
15
00:01:08,936 --> 00:01:11,172
I'm not entirely sure,
but from what I just heard,
16
00:01:11,272 --> 00:01:13,741
I-I, uh...
17
00:01:15,776 --> 00:01:18,479
I think World War III
is about to start.
18
00:01:19,747 --> 00:01:21,915
♪
19
00:01:49,977 --> 00:01:52,980
All right, we'll hold the fort
down until you get here.
20
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:54,348
You got it, Director.
21
00:01:54,448 --> 00:01:56,049
Isn't he on
his way to Venezuela?
22
00:01:56,184 --> 00:01:57,551
They're turning
the plane around.
23
00:01:57,651 --> 00:01:58,919
Oh, that doesn't sound good.
24
00:01:59,019 --> 00:02:00,554
Then you're gonna love this.
25
00:02:01,322 --> 00:02:04,925
NCIS Naples just intercepted
an encrypted message
26
00:02:05,025 --> 00:02:06,294
out of Belarus.
27
00:02:06,394 --> 00:02:08,061
Looks like Belarus is
planning a surprise attack.
28
00:02:08,196 --> 00:02:10,197
Well, finally making
a move on Ukraine.
29
00:02:10,198 --> 00:02:11,999
No, no. Targets
are all over Europe.
30
00:02:12,099 --> 00:02:13,567
What?
Yeah.
31
00:02:13,667 --> 00:02:15,269
TORRES:
But what's the surprise?
32
00:02:15,369 --> 00:02:16,804
I mean, NATO will know
the second that Belarus
33
00:02:16,904 --> 00:02:18,472
starts moving
any ground troops.
34
00:02:18,572 --> 00:02:19,773
Belarus isn't
using ground troops.
35
00:02:19,873 --> 00:02:22,209
They're using ballistic
missile launchers.
36
00:02:22,210 --> 00:02:24,312
The mobile kind.
37
00:02:24,412 --> 00:02:25,813
Clearly a gift
from the Russians.
38
00:02:25,913 --> 00:02:27,415
Finally making good
on their threat
39
00:02:27,515 --> 00:02:29,016
to bring the fight to Europe.
40
00:02:29,116 --> 00:02:31,084
And using Belarus as a proxy.
41
00:02:31,219 --> 00:02:32,653
Intel says they could
launch at any moment.
42
00:02:32,753 --> 00:02:34,888
Are we gonna talk about
what Kasie is wearing?
43
00:02:36,357 --> 00:02:38,292
I was at an all-night
D&D session.
44
00:02:38,392 --> 00:02:39,593
I'm missing the final showdown.
45
00:02:39,693 --> 00:02:41,429
Yeah, sucks.
I know you spent weeks
46
00:02:41,529 --> 00:02:42,663
collecting healing potions.
47
00:02:42,763 --> 00:02:43,864
You know the
barbarian's gonna eat
48
00:02:43,964 --> 00:02:45,333
all the pizza
while I'm gone.
49
00:02:45,433 --> 00:02:47,501
Hmm. I'm 10% nerdier
just for listening to that.
50
00:02:47,601 --> 00:02:50,438
Hey, has anyone heard from Jess?
She's not answering her cell.
51
00:02:50,538 --> 00:02:51,939
She's off for a couple days.
She's camping.
52
00:02:52,039 --> 00:02:53,374
Yeah, I already sent someone
to go find her.
53
00:02:53,474 --> 00:02:56,344
Okay, so if Knight is busy
roasting marshmallows,
54
00:02:56,444 --> 00:02:57,711
what are we doing?
55
00:02:57,811 --> 00:02:59,146
I mean, stopping
missile launches
56
00:02:59,247 --> 00:03:00,414
isn't exactly
our department.
57
00:03:00,514 --> 00:03:03,917
Actually, in this case, it is.
58
00:03:04,017 --> 00:03:07,755
Apparently, Naples picked up
the Belarus transmission
59
00:03:07,855 --> 00:03:11,259
using a-- an algorithm created
by someone in your office.
60
00:03:11,359 --> 00:03:13,361
A shocking display
of competence.
61
00:03:13,461 --> 00:03:16,797
As a result, NSA feels your
team is the best shot we have
62
00:03:16,897 --> 00:03:18,799
to decode
the rest of message.
63
00:03:18,899 --> 00:03:20,368
The rest of the message?
64
00:03:20,468 --> 00:03:22,603
NSA thinks the location
of those missile launchers
65
00:03:22,703 --> 00:03:24,271
is embedded in the transmission.
66
00:03:24,272 --> 00:03:26,940
If we can find out where Belarus
is hiding those launchers...
67
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,042
We can take them out before
they can do any damage.
68
00:03:29,142 --> 00:03:30,778
And kill this baby in the crib.
69
00:03:30,878 --> 00:03:32,746
Not my favorite idiom, but okay.
70
00:03:32,846 --> 00:03:36,116
I just finished briefing
the President on Air Force One.
71
00:03:36,284 --> 00:03:38,319
I impressed upon him
the need for speed.
72
00:03:38,419 --> 00:03:40,153
He ordered a carrier
strike group
73
00:03:40,288 --> 00:03:41,755
to haul ass to the Baltic Sea.
74
00:03:41,855 --> 00:03:45,359
When we find those launchers,
we blast them to hell.
75
00:03:46,327 --> 00:03:47,561
Uh, just throwing it out there,
76
00:03:47,661 --> 00:03:49,297
maybe talk to Belarus's
ambassador?
77
00:03:49,397 --> 00:03:52,299
Let them know that we know
about the attack?
78
00:03:52,300 --> 00:03:55,803
Negative. CIA feels if
Belarus even gets whiff
79
00:03:55,903 --> 00:03:57,738
that we're onto them,
they'll launch.
80
00:03:57,838 --> 00:04:00,541
And we have no idea how big
this attack is going to be.
81
00:04:00,641 --> 00:04:01,742
And our embassies, our bases,
82
00:04:01,842 --> 00:04:03,043
they're already
in enough danger.
83
00:04:03,143 --> 00:04:04,144
(phone ringing)
84
00:04:04,312 --> 00:04:05,346
Excuse me, gentlemen.
85
00:04:06,514 --> 00:04:10,083
Should we prepare our
Naples office for evacuation?
86
00:04:10,183 --> 00:04:11,919
Negative. Belarus might notice.
87
00:04:12,753 --> 00:04:15,423
We could still give our
embassies a warning on the D.L.
88
00:04:15,523 --> 00:04:16,657
Are you listening?
89
00:04:16,757 --> 00:04:18,058
We can't risk this getting out.
90
00:04:18,158 --> 00:04:20,694
Our people are sitting ducks
out there!
91
00:04:20,794 --> 00:04:23,163
Can you please
play 3D chess for once?
92
00:04:23,331 --> 00:04:25,899
Can you please get
your head out of your ass?!
93
00:04:25,999 --> 00:04:27,868
Hold it, hold it.
94
00:04:27,968 --> 00:04:30,237
I take that back.
95
00:04:30,338 --> 00:04:31,171
(sighs)
96
00:04:31,339 --> 00:04:32,940
Let's, uh, slow the roll.
97
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,075
We're all on the same team.
98
00:04:35,175 --> 00:04:37,177
Now is not the time
to be fighting each other.
99
00:04:37,345 --> 00:04:38,412
No, it's not.
100
00:04:38,512 --> 00:04:40,781
That was Command Center
at NORAD.
101
00:04:40,881 --> 00:04:42,716
They find out where those
missile launchers are?
102
00:04:42,816 --> 00:04:44,017
No.
103
00:04:44,117 --> 00:04:46,954
They just lost contact
with Air Force One.
104
00:04:48,689 --> 00:04:50,591
Air Force One, as in...?
105
00:04:50,691 --> 00:04:53,060
Air Force One.
106
00:04:54,862 --> 00:04:56,930
I think I'd better
get my team started
107
00:04:57,030 --> 00:04:58,966
on finding
those missile launchers.
108
00:04:59,066 --> 00:05:01,068
Good idea.
109
00:05:06,607 --> 00:05:08,876
(insects trilling, owl hooting)
110
00:05:22,122 --> 00:05:23,957
(door latch clicks softly)
111
00:05:24,792 --> 00:05:26,059
(door closes softly)
112
00:05:26,159 --> 00:05:27,895
(floor creaks softly)
113
00:05:33,233 --> 00:05:35,402
(gasps)
(hisses in pain)
114
00:05:35,403 --> 00:05:36,670
(gasping)
115
00:05:36,770 --> 00:05:37,805
Jimmy?
116
00:05:37,905 --> 00:05:39,206
Ow-- Ouch.
117
00:05:39,306 --> 00:05:40,574
What are you doing here?
118
00:05:40,674 --> 00:05:41,875
I was checking your pulse.
119
00:05:41,975 --> 00:05:44,044
I meant in my RV.
120
00:05:44,144 --> 00:05:45,546
Well, McGee sent me
to check on you
121
00:05:45,646 --> 00:05:47,047
because you weren't
answering your phone.
122
00:05:47,147 --> 00:05:49,149
That's because I turned it...
123
00:05:49,917 --> 00:05:51,018
Why were you checking my pulse?
124
00:05:51,118 --> 00:05:52,219
To see if you're still alive.
125
00:05:52,319 --> 00:05:53,687
And why wouldn't I be alive?
126
00:05:53,787 --> 00:05:56,189
Because you weren't snoring
and I-I got worried.
127
00:05:56,289 --> 00:05:57,725
And-- (stammers)
Will you please let go?
128
00:05:57,825 --> 00:05:58,926
Please? Please? Ah!
129
00:05:59,026 --> 00:06:00,260
(pained laugh) Ooh.
130
00:06:00,428 --> 00:06:02,463
I don't snore.
Of course
you don't.
131
00:06:02,563 --> 00:06:05,065
Except for all the times
that you snore.
132
00:06:05,165 --> 00:06:06,834
Agree to disagree.
133
00:06:06,934 --> 00:06:09,503
But why are you
in my RV?
134
00:06:09,603 --> 00:06:11,972
I'll explain
on the way back to NCIS.
135
00:06:12,072 --> 00:06:13,574
I need a lift anyway.
136
00:06:13,674 --> 00:06:14,975
How'd you get here?
137
00:06:15,075 --> 00:06:18,111
The Man Van, but it's not
really built for offroad.
138
00:06:18,211 --> 00:06:20,013
Flat tire. I get it.
139
00:06:20,113 --> 00:06:21,749
Two.
140
00:06:23,116 --> 00:06:25,486
Well, so much for my time off.
141
00:06:25,586 --> 00:06:26,820
How soon will you be back?
142
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,456
KNIGHT:
We're an hour away.
143
00:06:28,556 --> 00:06:30,090
I already brought
Jess up to speed.
144
00:06:30,190 --> 00:06:32,259
Did NORAD actually lose contact
with Air Force One?
145
00:06:32,359 --> 00:06:35,463
Yeah, apparently it was
just a technical glitch.
146
00:06:35,563 --> 00:06:37,164
But their entire
comms system is down.
147
00:06:37,264 --> 00:06:40,701
Right before Belarus is about
to launch a surprise attack?
148
00:06:40,801 --> 00:06:42,636
That can't be a coincidence.
149
00:06:42,736 --> 00:06:44,472
No one thinks it is.
150
00:06:46,474 --> 00:06:47,508
So what is it?
151
00:06:47,608 --> 00:06:48,642
(exhales heavily)
152
00:06:48,742 --> 00:06:50,511
BRANCATO:
We have to assume
153
00:06:50,611 --> 00:06:52,212
it's some kind
of Russian cyberattack
154
00:06:52,312 --> 00:06:55,482
to degrade our command
and control capabilities
155
00:06:55,483 --> 00:06:57,685
before Belarus
launches those missiles.
156
00:06:57,785 --> 00:07:00,688
So Air Force One is
operationally dead in the water?
157
00:07:00,788 --> 00:07:02,255
At least until they can land.
158
00:07:02,355 --> 00:07:03,791
And when
is that gonna be?
159
00:07:03,891 --> 00:07:05,726
Just shy of an hour.
160
00:07:05,826 --> 00:07:07,494
We might not have an hour.
161
00:07:07,495 --> 00:07:10,197
That's the best we can
do right now, Senator.
162
00:07:10,297 --> 00:07:13,701
Have you heard anything new
from the NCIS office in Florida?
163
00:07:15,368 --> 00:07:16,770
Florida?
164
00:07:16,870 --> 00:07:20,073
Didn't NCIS Naples intercept
the original transmission?
165
00:07:21,041 --> 00:07:25,646
Um, NCIS Naples
is in Italy.
166
00:07:25,746 --> 00:07:27,515
Who is this idiot?
167
00:07:28,549 --> 00:07:30,217
This idiot...
168
00:07:30,317 --> 00:07:33,721
is the President Pro Tempore
of the United States Senate.
169
00:07:33,821 --> 00:07:36,624
Which makes me the fourth
in the line of succession.
170
00:07:36,724 --> 00:07:38,892
Which, given the fact
the Speaker of the House
171
00:07:38,992 --> 00:07:42,563
is also on Air Force One,
makes me in charge.
172
00:07:43,564 --> 00:07:47,434
Um, I think you might've
skipped the Vice President.
173
00:07:47,535 --> 00:07:49,536
Uh, colonoscopy.
174
00:07:49,537 --> 00:07:50,971
I'm sorry, what?
175
00:07:51,071 --> 00:07:53,440
Who gets a colonoscopy
at 3:00 a.m.?
176
00:07:53,541 --> 00:07:54,942
Emergency colonoscopy.
177
00:07:55,042 --> 00:07:57,911
As a result of
"life-threatening GI distress."
178
00:07:58,011 --> 00:08:00,280
So the entire chain of command
is out of commission,
179
00:08:00,380 --> 00:08:01,715
just as we're about
to be attacked?
180
00:08:01,815 --> 00:08:03,984
That can't be
a coincidence, either.
181
00:08:04,084 --> 00:08:05,719
No, and we have people
working on it.
182
00:08:05,819 --> 00:08:08,221
But our job right now
is to focus on Belarus.
183
00:08:08,321 --> 00:08:09,723
Once we figure out
where they're hiding
184
00:08:09,823 --> 00:08:11,725
those missile launchers,
what are our options?
185
00:08:11,825 --> 00:08:13,994
BRANCATO:
We drop a cluster
of MOABs, sir.
186
00:08:14,094 --> 00:08:16,229
Then we send ground troops
in to--
187
00:08:16,329 --> 00:08:17,430
No ground troops.
188
00:08:17,565 --> 00:08:19,099
Sir, it's the only way to verify
189
00:08:19,199 --> 00:08:21,234
those launchers
are out of commission.
190
00:08:21,334 --> 00:08:23,571
What about tactical nukes?
191
00:08:24,471 --> 00:08:25,706
What about them?
192
00:08:25,806 --> 00:08:27,074
LARMONT:
With that kind
of firepower,
193
00:08:27,174 --> 00:08:29,743
we won't need ground
troops to verify crap.
194
00:08:29,843 --> 00:08:31,211
Plus, it'll make anyone
think twice
195
00:08:31,311 --> 00:08:32,580
about attacking us again.
196
00:08:32,680 --> 00:08:35,783
Or, uh, backfire
and start World War III.
197
00:08:35,883 --> 00:08:37,350
Belarus started this.
198
00:08:37,450 --> 00:08:40,754
If we fire first,
we'll be the ones starting it.
199
00:08:41,589 --> 00:08:44,792
Okay, Smarty Pants,
you got a better idea?
200
00:08:44,892 --> 00:08:46,760
Yeah.
Something else.
201
00:08:46,860 --> 00:08:48,996
Like...?
202
00:08:53,967 --> 00:08:55,502
KASIE:
Okay, this is the part
of the Belarus transmission
203
00:08:55,603 --> 00:08:56,904
that's left to decrypt.
204
00:08:57,004 --> 00:08:58,639
Hopefully,
it tells us the location
205
00:08:58,739 --> 00:09:00,073
of their missile launchers.
206
00:09:00,173 --> 00:09:02,042
All right, did-did Curtis
really write the code
207
00:09:02,142 --> 00:09:03,977
that intercepted
the original message?
208
00:09:04,077 --> 00:09:06,046
Yeah, the guy makes one hell
of a Dungeon Master, too.
209
00:09:06,146 --> 00:09:07,681
Wow. All right,
where do we start?
210
00:09:07,781 --> 00:09:09,683
I say we warm up with
a little frequency analysis.
211
00:09:09,783 --> 00:09:11,118
Hmm.
After you.
212
00:09:11,218 --> 00:09:12,686
Don't touch that!
213
00:09:12,786 --> 00:09:16,123
It's already running my custom
ultra-wideband demodulator.
214
00:09:17,891 --> 00:09:19,827
I mean, you can touch it
if you want.
215
00:09:19,927 --> 00:09:21,161
Thank you.
216
00:09:21,261 --> 00:09:22,896
You'll just mess everything up!
217
00:09:22,996 --> 00:09:24,898
Forget I said that.
Touch whatever you'd like.
218
00:09:24,998 --> 00:09:26,633
Appreciate the help.
Thank you.
219
00:09:26,634 --> 00:09:28,235
Team work makes the dream work.
220
00:09:28,335 --> 00:09:30,137
I'm just a little shook up
about the rumor we might drop a,
221
00:09:30,237 --> 00:09:32,706
you know... nuclear bomb.
222
00:09:32,806 --> 00:09:35,208
Well, it's a small,
low-yield nuclear bomb.
223
00:09:35,308 --> 00:09:37,377
Is that supposed
to make me feel better?
Well,
224
00:09:37,477 --> 00:09:39,880
the other option is a massive
spread of conventional MOABs.
225
00:09:39,980 --> 00:09:42,049
And supposedly they'd cause
more collateral damage
226
00:09:42,149 --> 00:09:43,917
than a single tactical nuke.
227
00:09:44,017 --> 00:09:45,953
Wait. Am I pro-nuke?
228
00:09:46,053 --> 00:09:48,321
Hello!
Pandora's box, anyone?
229
00:09:48,421 --> 00:09:50,457
I'm sure once
we open that door again,
230
00:09:50,557 --> 00:09:52,392
we will not be the only ones
to walk through it.
231
00:09:52,492 --> 00:09:55,262
And will anyone care about
collateral damage at that point?
232
00:09:55,362 --> 00:09:58,398
I think the people who aren't
killed by the MOABs might care.
233
00:09:58,498 --> 00:10:00,067
And I feel really silly
having this conversation
234
00:10:00,167 --> 00:10:01,902
in my Dungeon Master outfit.
Do you have any--
235
00:10:02,002 --> 00:10:03,904
Overalls, back office.
Thank you.
236
00:10:04,004 --> 00:10:05,438
Okay. What are we doing, McGee?
237
00:10:05,538 --> 00:10:07,174
Uh, not sure, but...
238
00:10:08,308 --> 00:10:10,377
But I think we're doing it.
Looks like Curtis's program
239
00:10:10,477 --> 00:10:13,013
found the locations to
those missile launchers.
Oh.
240
00:10:14,014 --> 00:10:16,516
Wait. What's happening?
I don't know.
Looks like some kind
241
00:10:16,616 --> 00:10:18,418
of secondary...
AUTOMATED VOICE:
System alert.
242
00:10:18,518 --> 00:10:19,853
System alert.
243
00:10:19,953 --> 00:10:22,355
Don't touch anything!
Don't touch anything!
244
00:10:22,455 --> 00:10:24,457
What did you touch?!
What?
245
00:10:25,292 --> 00:10:26,994
Get the general on the horn.
246
00:10:29,029 --> 00:10:31,264
You have locations
on those missile launchers?
247
00:10:31,364 --> 00:10:33,767
We do.
I'm logging into the
Pentagon's secure server
248
00:10:33,867 --> 00:10:34,935
as we speak.
249
00:10:35,035 --> 00:10:36,303
But I got good news.
250
00:10:36,403 --> 00:10:38,772
Our Orion satellite cluster
just picked up
251
00:10:38,872 --> 00:10:40,573
a second transmission
out of Belarus.
252
00:10:40,674 --> 00:10:42,976
Well, Space Force
hasn't reported anything.
253
00:10:43,076 --> 00:10:46,079
Well, our tech's algorithm found
it hiding in a chirp signal.
254
00:10:46,179 --> 00:10:47,881
Huh.
What's the transmission say?
255
00:10:47,981 --> 00:10:49,449
We've got people
decoding it now.
256
00:10:49,549 --> 00:10:51,118
But it was sent
the moment that one
257
00:10:51,218 --> 00:10:53,620
of our sub attack groups
started moving.
258
00:10:53,721 --> 00:10:55,756
Belarus must know
we're on to them.
259
00:10:55,856 --> 00:11:00,327
Which means the transmission
could be a stand-down order.
260
00:11:01,628 --> 00:11:02,963
Maybe.
261
00:11:03,063 --> 00:11:04,731
I'll order a tactical pause.
262
00:11:04,732 --> 00:11:07,167
Give your people enough time
to finish decoding the message.
263
00:11:07,267 --> 00:11:08,869
In the meantime,
264
00:11:08,969 --> 00:11:10,838
what we need is--
(phone ringing)
265
00:11:12,105 --> 00:11:13,841
Stand by.
266
00:11:13,941 --> 00:11:15,743
This is General Bran--
267
00:11:16,609 --> 00:11:18,211
Yes, sir.
268
00:11:18,311 --> 00:11:19,546
Of course, sir.
269
00:11:19,646 --> 00:11:21,214
Well, if you have
270
00:11:21,314 --> 00:11:24,084
been listening you know that
there's a second transmission.
271
00:11:25,485 --> 00:11:27,354
Yeah-- (sighs)
272
00:11:28,621 --> 00:11:30,757
Yes, sir, I understand.
273
00:11:30,758 --> 00:11:31,892
Sir.
274
00:11:33,794 --> 00:11:35,428
Godspeed.
275
00:11:38,531 --> 00:11:40,768
Let me guess. Naples, Florida?
276
00:11:40,868 --> 00:11:42,836
Good guess.
277
00:11:43,871 --> 00:11:46,573
We're not pausing
our attack, are we?
278
00:11:46,673 --> 00:11:48,775
No.
279
00:11:48,776 --> 00:11:50,811
We are not.
280
00:11:59,119 --> 00:12:01,121
Okay, maybe we should just, uh,
281
00:12:01,221 --> 00:12:04,791
take a second
and slow everything down here.
282
00:12:04,792 --> 00:12:06,159
I agree.
283
00:12:06,259 --> 00:12:08,328
Unfortunately,
we're out of time.
284
00:12:08,428 --> 00:12:11,298
General--
We have been given
a direct order.
285
00:12:11,398 --> 00:12:13,834
My team just needs
another half an hour
286
00:12:13,934 --> 00:12:15,802
to decrypt that second message.
287
00:12:15,803 --> 00:12:18,405
You don't even have
another minute.
288
00:12:19,807 --> 00:12:22,342
Curtis, have you
started uploading
289
00:12:22,442 --> 00:12:24,044
those target
coordinates yet?
290
00:12:24,144 --> 00:12:25,813
I was just about to.
291
00:12:26,814 --> 00:12:28,215
Don't.
292
00:12:29,216 --> 00:12:31,985
Excuse me?
Excuse me?
293
00:12:32,085 --> 00:12:35,688
General, the stakes
are too high to rush this.
294
00:12:35,823 --> 00:12:38,025
Upload those coordinates now.
295
00:12:38,125 --> 00:12:40,861
Look, man,
I'm not gonna do that!
296
00:12:40,961 --> 00:12:42,329
(door opens)
297
00:12:42,429 --> 00:12:43,696
Yes, Director.
298
00:12:43,831 --> 00:12:46,299
Agent Parker is uploading
the missile locations
299
00:12:46,399 --> 00:12:48,001
to the Pentagon
as we speak.
300
00:12:48,101 --> 00:12:49,937
We'll, uh, we'll
keep you posted.
301
00:12:51,504 --> 00:12:53,173
Why is no one talking?
302
00:12:53,273 --> 00:12:54,875
BRANCATO:
You're Agent McGee, correct?
303
00:12:54,975 --> 00:12:56,143
Yes, sir.
304
00:12:56,243 --> 00:12:58,045
Arrest Agent Parker.
305
00:12:58,145 --> 00:12:59,212
Excuse me?
306
00:12:59,312 --> 00:13:00,881
Excuse me?
307
00:13:00,981 --> 00:13:02,249
And then upload the locations
308
00:13:02,349 --> 00:13:03,850
of those missile launchers
immediately.
309
00:13:03,851 --> 00:13:05,285
Well, what is happening?
310
00:13:05,385 --> 00:13:08,621
Agent Parker is refusing
a direct order.
311
00:13:08,721 --> 00:13:11,258
Well, sir, technically,
NCIS agents
312
00:13:11,358 --> 00:13:14,594
aren't in the chain of command
and don't have to follow--
313
00:13:14,694 --> 00:13:16,163
Enough of this.
314
00:13:16,263 --> 00:13:18,165
They're not giving us
time to decrypt
315
00:13:18,265 --> 00:13:20,467
the new message
before they attack.
316
00:13:20,567 --> 00:13:21,935
That's crazy.
317
00:13:22,035 --> 00:13:25,305
Agent McGee, are you going
to arrest Agent Parker
318
00:13:25,405 --> 00:13:26,773
or not?
319
00:13:32,412 --> 00:13:33,646
That's gonna be a hard pass.
320
00:13:33,746 --> 00:13:35,048
Cut it, Curtis.
321
00:13:37,250 --> 00:13:39,286
Thanks for the quick
vote of confidence.
322
00:13:39,386 --> 00:13:41,788
Figure you know
what you're doing.
323
00:13:41,889 --> 00:13:44,357
You do know what
you're doing, right?
324
00:13:46,593 --> 00:13:48,628
I guess we should
call Vance back and brief him.
325
00:13:48,728 --> 00:13:50,763
You want to flip for it?
Yeah, I got it.
326
00:13:50,898 --> 00:13:52,032
(phone beeps)
327
00:13:52,132 --> 00:13:53,800
That's weird, I'm
not getting a signal.
328
00:13:53,901 --> 00:13:55,668
I think I know why.
We got company.
329
00:13:55,768 --> 00:13:57,104
Agents on every floor.
330
00:13:57,204 --> 00:13:58,905
Cell jammer stays on
until you hear from me.
331
00:13:58,906 --> 00:14:00,340
Whoa, whoa, whoa. What
are you guys doing here?
332
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:01,674
Arresting you both.
333
00:14:01,774 --> 00:14:03,376
What?
You gotta be kidding.
334
00:14:03,476 --> 00:14:05,412
Cuff 'em. All communication
335
00:14:05,512 --> 00:14:06,947
in and out of this building
has been cut off.
336
00:14:07,047 --> 00:14:09,449
If you don't want
to stay at your desks,
337
00:14:09,549 --> 00:14:10,918
we are happy to arrest you
338
00:14:11,018 --> 00:14:12,920
for interfering
with an FBI operation.
339
00:14:13,020 --> 00:14:14,421
Wait a minute.
Have you guys been hiding
340
00:14:14,521 --> 00:14:15,622
in the parking lot or something?
341
00:14:15,722 --> 00:14:17,590
Actually, yes.
When I saw you hesitate,
342
00:14:17,690 --> 00:14:18,791
I requested authority
343
00:14:18,926 --> 00:14:20,927
to take over
in case you dropped the ball.
344
00:14:20,928 --> 00:14:21,962
And you did!
345
00:14:22,062 --> 00:14:23,430
Now, where are
the launcher locations?
346
00:14:23,530 --> 00:14:25,132
No. Not until we decode
that second message.
347
00:14:25,232 --> 00:14:27,434
What if Belarus
is standing down?
What if they're not?
348
00:14:27,534 --> 00:14:28,768
Well, don't you think
we should find out
349
00:14:28,936 --> 00:14:30,570
before we, you know,
drop a nuclear bomb?
350
00:14:30,670 --> 00:14:32,939
That's not your call. You've
been given a direct order.
351
00:14:32,940 --> 00:14:35,208
I'm not required to follow
an order I deem illegal.
352
00:14:35,308 --> 00:14:37,610
And facilitating the
release of a nuclear weapon
353
00:14:37,710 --> 00:14:39,812
under these circumstances
feels a little illegal to me!
354
00:14:39,947 --> 00:14:42,615
Well, even if the message
contains a stand-down order...
The timing of the message
355
00:14:42,715 --> 00:14:44,484
tells me that Belarus knows...
...it could be--
It could just be a decoy
356
00:14:44,584 --> 00:14:45,986
to delay the counterattack!
...that they lost
357
00:14:46,086 --> 00:14:47,654
the element of surprise!
And you're falling for it!
358
00:14:47,754 --> 00:14:49,322
Every blood is on your hands!
They haven't launched yet!
359
00:14:49,422 --> 00:14:50,823
They might be calling
off the attack!
360
00:14:50,958 --> 00:14:53,293
But we don't know that!
I just told McGee that!
361
00:14:53,393 --> 00:14:54,995
PARKER: Well, then I'll wipe
the blood on your shirt.
Why don't you go ahead?
362
00:14:55,095 --> 00:14:56,796
Let's see what happens.
I'll make sure the FBI director
363
00:14:56,964 --> 00:14:59,299
knows when the world blows up,
it's your fault!
Go ahead!
364
00:14:59,399 --> 00:15:02,202
Why don't you tell him?!
Oh, you don't think he knows?
No, I'll wipe the blood...
365
00:15:02,302 --> 00:15:04,337
♪
366
00:15:04,437 --> 00:15:06,006
(elevator bell dings)
367
00:15:06,974 --> 00:15:08,075
(beeps)
368
00:15:08,175 --> 00:15:09,809
Hey!
369
00:15:10,610 --> 00:15:12,112
Over there with the others.
370
00:15:15,748 --> 00:15:18,018
I said move, Tiny.
371
00:15:20,988 --> 00:15:22,289
(sighs)
372
00:15:23,090 --> 00:15:24,691
Still nothing?
Nope.
373
00:15:24,791 --> 00:15:26,993
Everyone's cell is going
straight to voicemail.
374
00:15:26,994 --> 00:15:29,096
Yeah, well, I'm sure
they're all really busy.
375
00:15:31,164 --> 00:15:32,432
(sighs)
376
00:15:40,207 --> 00:15:41,874
So...
377
00:15:42,842 --> 00:15:44,544
So...
378
00:15:48,015 --> 00:15:49,182
(chuckles)
379
00:15:49,282 --> 00:15:50,583
This is silly.
380
00:15:50,683 --> 00:15:52,785
It's silly, right?
Yeah. Just...
(chuckles)
381
00:15:52,885 --> 00:15:54,687
I mean, we never had
a problem talking to each other
382
00:15:54,787 --> 00:15:55,855
before we started dating.
383
00:15:56,023 --> 00:15:58,025
No, never had a problem.
(chuckles)
384
00:15:58,125 --> 00:16:00,360
Though, to be fair, uh,
385
00:16:00,460 --> 00:16:02,862
we haven't really talked
since we stopped.
386
00:16:03,030 --> 00:16:03,863
(chuckles)
387
00:16:04,031 --> 00:16:05,532
What are you talking about?
388
00:16:05,632 --> 00:16:06,866
I've been back for weeks.
389
00:16:07,034 --> 00:16:09,636
No, I mean a-alone.
Just the two of us.
390
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,375
I thought you were avoiding me.
391
00:16:17,144 --> 00:16:19,279
I thought you were avoiding me.
392
00:16:21,714 --> 00:16:23,183
(romantic song ringtone playing)
393
00:16:23,283 --> 00:16:25,052
Uh, it's fine.
394
00:16:25,152 --> 00:16:27,120
It's-- You-you can
just leave that.
Okay. Hey, hey,
395
00:16:27,220 --> 00:16:29,622
someone is calling.
Oh. No, no, it's--
No, it's-it's fine.
396
00:16:29,722 --> 00:16:30,890
It's fine. It's fine.
Got it, got it, got it.
397
00:16:31,058 --> 00:16:32,292
And it's, uh...
398
00:16:32,392 --> 00:16:33,826
MateQuest.
399
00:16:33,926 --> 00:16:37,063
You are on MateQuest?
400
00:16:37,064 --> 00:16:38,865
I-I just, um... It's a, uh...
401
00:16:38,965 --> 00:16:41,534
Dating app. Yeah, I know.
It's...
402
00:16:41,634 --> 00:16:43,336
It's fine. Because...
403
00:16:43,436 --> 00:16:44,337
we broke up.
404
00:16:44,437 --> 00:16:46,373
Yeah, I remember. (chuckles)
405
00:16:46,473 --> 00:16:47,707
If you could just go ahead
406
00:16:47,807 --> 00:16:49,076
and toss that out the window, please.
407
00:16:49,176 --> 00:16:51,077
Or I could answer it.
No, you cannot.
408
00:16:51,078 --> 00:16:52,845
I mean, don't you want to know
who's calling you?
409
00:16:52,945 --> 00:16:54,181
Mm-mm.
I could just kind of, like...
410
00:16:54,281 --> 00:16:55,748
- (phone beeps)
- (grunts, gasps) Oh.
411
00:16:56,516 --> 00:16:58,351
(whispering):
I'm so sorry. I-I answered it.
412
00:16:59,586 --> 00:17:01,388
I don't think-- That's rude.
413
00:17:02,355 --> 00:17:04,091
Sorry.
414
00:17:04,191 --> 00:17:05,592
(clears throat)
415
00:17:05,692 --> 00:17:07,394
Hello, this is Jimmy.
416
00:17:08,095 --> 00:17:09,796
Hello. Hello? Anybody there?
417
00:17:09,896 --> 00:17:12,099
Hey, Romeo. Relax. It's me.
418
00:17:12,199 --> 00:17:14,767
Nick?
Yeah. Are you guys
headed back to NCIS?
419
00:17:14,867 --> 00:17:17,404
It's Nick. Agent Torres
Nick. Uh, uh, yeah.
420
00:17:17,504 --> 00:17:19,772
Hey, we're headed
back right now.
TORRES: Don't come in.
421
00:17:19,872 --> 00:17:23,476
Wait, did you and Jimmy
match on MateQuest?
422
00:17:23,576 --> 00:17:25,445
No, Nick's my MateQuest WingMan.
423
00:17:25,545 --> 00:17:27,614
What's a MateQuest Wingman?
424
00:17:27,714 --> 00:17:28,915
No, it's fine.
I don't want to know.
425
00:17:29,015 --> 00:17:30,217
Phones are blocked.
426
00:17:32,018 --> 00:17:34,521
For some reason, this app is the
only way I could get a call out.
427
00:17:34,621 --> 00:17:35,922
Why are the phones
blocked?
428
00:17:36,022 --> 00:17:37,424
No time.
429
00:17:37,524 --> 00:17:39,292
I'm worried they're gonna
track me if I stay on too long.
430
00:17:39,392 --> 00:17:40,827
And pretty soon,
431
00:17:40,927 --> 00:17:42,429
they're gonna find out
one of their guys is missing.
432
00:17:42,529 --> 00:17:43,996
Pull over. Don't come in.
433
00:17:44,131 --> 00:17:45,465
I'll call you as soon as I can.
434
00:17:45,565 --> 00:17:47,300
Hopefully.
435
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,302
I'm at three percent.
436
00:17:50,637 --> 00:17:53,140
z(muffled grunting)
437
00:17:55,275 --> 00:17:56,709
This should keep you warm.
438
00:17:56,809 --> 00:17:59,045
(grunting)
439
00:17:59,479 --> 00:18:01,581
(grunts)
But never call me Tiny again.
440
00:18:01,681 --> 00:18:03,850
(muffled grunting)
441
00:18:06,153 --> 00:18:07,720
Yes, sir, Parker and
McGee are being debriefed
442
00:18:07,820 --> 00:18:09,956
and then I'm taking them
in to be formally charged.
443
00:18:10,056 --> 00:18:11,758
And you should have the location
of those Belarus
444
00:18:11,858 --> 00:18:13,159
missile launchers any second.
445
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:14,394
Starting upload now.
446
00:18:18,030 --> 00:18:19,232
What's going on?
TECH:
I-I don't know.
447
00:18:19,332 --> 00:18:20,467
I just got booted
from the system.
448
00:18:20,567 --> 00:18:22,469
Well-well, get back in.
I'm trying,
449
00:18:22,569 --> 00:18:23,603
but every time I open a port,
450
00:18:23,703 --> 00:18:24,937
s-someone's locking me out.
451
00:18:25,037 --> 00:18:26,038
Board says
452
00:18:26,173 --> 00:18:27,173
it's coming
from inside this room,
453
00:18:27,174 --> 00:18:28,575
but that-that's
impossible.
454
00:18:28,675 --> 00:18:29,609
(shushing)
455
00:18:29,709 --> 00:18:31,043
Everyone, quiet.
456
00:18:31,178 --> 00:18:33,846
(keyboard clacking)
457
00:18:38,385 --> 00:18:39,586
Oh, hi.
458
00:18:39,686 --> 00:18:40,987
I just thought maybe
we all should take a time-out.
459
00:18:41,087 --> 00:18:42,389
You know, see what
that second message says.
460
00:18:42,489 --> 00:18:43,723
Get him out of here.
461
00:18:43,823 --> 00:18:45,258
Yes, sir.
CURTIS: All right,
look out, boys.
462
00:18:45,358 --> 00:18:46,726
I've been taking tae kwon do.
On your feet.
463
00:18:46,826 --> 00:18:49,196
(grunting)
Come on.
464
00:18:50,029 --> 00:18:51,331
CURTIS:
And checkmate.
465
00:18:52,098 --> 00:18:54,534
(panting) Pizza, anyone?
466
00:18:55,702 --> 00:18:57,504
KNIGHT:
Why would the phones
be blocked?
467
00:18:57,604 --> 00:18:59,205
Not my department.
468
00:18:59,206 --> 00:19:01,508
And I don't think
well when I'm hungry.
469
00:19:01,608 --> 00:19:05,378
Someone even blocked access
to our email server.
470
00:19:05,478 --> 00:19:07,547
Yeah, probably has something
to do with, uh, Belarus
471
00:19:07,647 --> 00:19:08,981
and the attack.
472
00:19:09,081 --> 00:19:11,384
Well, I'm guessing we're
just gonna have to wait
473
00:19:11,484 --> 00:19:12,385
for Torres to call us back.
474
00:19:12,485 --> 00:19:14,487
Yeah. Hopefully soon.
475
00:19:14,587 --> 00:19:17,724
If you're bored, you can
kill time on... MateQuest.
476
00:19:17,824 --> 00:19:20,393
Look, Jess, I-I...
Relax.
477
00:19:20,493 --> 00:19:22,028
I'm teasing.
478
00:19:22,128 --> 00:19:25,398
It's not like I didn't already
know you're seeing other people.
479
00:19:25,498 --> 00:19:26,666
Yeah?
480
00:19:26,766 --> 00:19:28,635
What makes you say that?
481
00:19:29,502 --> 00:19:31,404
Well, last month,
you accidentally sent me a text
482
00:19:31,504 --> 00:19:33,840
that was clearly meant
for somebody else.
483
00:19:35,975 --> 00:19:37,344
You're teasing me again.
484
00:19:37,444 --> 00:19:38,911
(chuckles softly)
485
00:19:39,011 --> 00:19:39,912
Jennifer.
486
00:19:40,012 --> 00:19:41,748
(upbeat romantic ringtone
playing)
487
00:19:41,848 --> 00:19:43,383
(gasps)
Uh...
488
00:19:45,452 --> 00:19:47,720
Oh. Well,
the app says you have a...
489
00:19:49,256 --> 00:19:50,390
...JoyJingle.
490
00:19:50,490 --> 00:19:52,258
If I even want to know
what that means.
491
00:19:52,259 --> 00:19:54,927
It's just... (sighs)
It's a-- it's a message.
492
00:19:55,027 --> 00:19:56,396
Hopefully
it's from Torres.
493
00:19:56,496 --> 00:19:59,031
Well, in case it's from
Jennifer... (chuckles)
494
00:19:59,131 --> 00:20:00,266
It's from Kasie.
495
00:20:00,267 --> 00:20:01,801
Is everybody on this app?
496
00:20:01,901 --> 00:20:03,102
You've been gone a while.
497
00:20:03,202 --> 00:20:04,437
What's it say?
498
00:20:04,537 --> 00:20:06,105
I think she wants us
to check my laptop.
499
00:20:06,205 --> 00:20:07,874
Okay. Picking up on that.
500
00:20:07,974 --> 00:20:09,309
KNIGHT:
Oh.
501
00:20:09,409 --> 00:20:10,943
I think she's trying
to send us something.
502
00:20:11,043 --> 00:20:13,246
Picked up on that, too.
503
00:20:15,047 --> 00:20:16,583
Why is Kasie connecting
my laptop
504
00:20:16,683 --> 00:20:18,117
to the NCIS security cameras?
505
00:20:18,217 --> 00:20:19,919
And why all the FBI?
506
00:20:20,019 --> 00:20:23,055
Maybe they're trying to help
with the Belarus thing?
507
00:20:27,093 --> 00:20:28,328
I don't think they're helping.
508
00:20:28,428 --> 00:20:30,763
What the hell is going on?
509
00:20:30,863 --> 00:20:32,999
Look, pal, your boss
is making a mistake.
510
00:20:33,099 --> 00:20:34,634
A big one.
I don't know.
511
00:20:34,734 --> 00:20:36,503
I think maybe we're the
ones making a mistake.
McGee,
512
00:20:36,603 --> 00:20:39,639
we got to give our people time
to decode that second message.
513
00:20:39,739 --> 00:20:41,140
It could be a stand-down order.
514
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,175
Well, what if it's just a trick,
like Sweeney said?
515
00:20:43,276 --> 00:20:44,611
All the more reason
to see what it says!
516
00:20:44,711 --> 00:20:46,145
Before Sweeney
starts World War III!
517
00:20:46,245 --> 00:20:48,515
Well, what if we're the ones
that start World War III?!
518
00:20:48,615 --> 00:20:49,949
Hey, man!
(groans)
519
00:20:50,850 --> 00:20:52,151
I was hoping you kept your
spare key in your back pocket.
520
00:20:52,251 --> 00:20:53,986
Never get arrested without it.
521
00:20:54,086 --> 00:20:55,288
Yeah, I couldn't reach mine.
522
00:20:55,388 --> 00:20:56,656
I lost a few pounds, you know?
523
00:20:56,756 --> 00:20:58,257
My-my pants were riding low
on my hips.
524
00:20:58,358 --> 00:21:00,593
Yeah. I noticed.
You look good.
Oh, thanks.
525
00:21:00,693 --> 00:21:01,928
(grunting)
526
00:21:04,163 --> 00:21:05,498
PARKER:
All right.
527
00:21:05,598 --> 00:21:07,400
This elevator's
not going anywhere.
528
00:21:07,500 --> 00:21:09,402
What now?
529
00:21:09,502 --> 00:21:11,671
Now...
530
00:21:13,205 --> 00:21:15,508
...we take our agency back.
531
00:21:22,849 --> 00:21:24,216
(Parker sneezes)
532
00:21:24,351 --> 00:21:25,852
(McGee grunts)
533
00:21:27,620 --> 00:21:29,689
Could you have made
even more noise?
534
00:21:29,789 --> 00:21:31,924
I'm not the one that was
sneezing every other second.
535
00:21:32,024 --> 00:21:34,461
I'm allergic to
dust mites, okay?
536
00:21:34,561 --> 00:21:36,262
I don't hear Kasie.
537
00:21:36,363 --> 00:21:38,365
Wonder if
the FBI's got her.
538
00:21:39,999 --> 00:21:41,901
(screams)
Kasie!
Whoa!
539
00:21:42,001 --> 00:21:44,437
Oh, thank God.
I-I heard a crash back there,
540
00:21:44,537 --> 00:21:45,738
and then
I thought...
541
00:21:45,838 --> 00:21:47,273
Actually, I don't know
what I thought,
542
00:21:47,374 --> 00:21:49,376
but I was about to hit something
with a bat. (laughs)
543
00:21:49,476 --> 00:21:51,110
Hey. Where'd you two come from?
544
00:21:51,210 --> 00:21:52,812
Well, we, uh,
came up the elevator shaft
545
00:21:52,912 --> 00:21:54,113
and through
the ventilation ducts.
546
00:21:54,213 --> 00:21:55,548
That's badass.
547
00:21:55,648 --> 00:21:57,617
Yeah, we left an FBI agent
tied up in the elevator.
548
00:21:57,717 --> 00:21:59,085
Hopefully, nobody notices.
549
00:21:59,185 --> 00:22:00,753
Oh, no, they're all over
the building.
550
00:22:00,853 --> 00:22:03,390
I actually watched Torres
duct tape one to a freezer tray
551
00:22:03,490 --> 00:22:04,557
on the
security cameras.
552
00:22:04,657 --> 00:22:05,892
(laughs) That was fun.
553
00:22:05,992 --> 00:22:07,393
Where's Torres now?
554
00:22:07,394 --> 00:22:08,861
Mm, don't know.
That guy moves pretty fast.
555
00:22:08,961 --> 00:22:10,530
Please tell us
that you were able to decode
556
00:22:10,630 --> 00:22:12,164
that second message
from Belarus.
557
00:22:12,264 --> 00:22:14,033
Still working on it.
558
00:22:14,133 --> 00:22:15,401
Then we're too late.
559
00:22:15,402 --> 00:22:17,203
The FBI must've uploaded
the location
560
00:22:17,303 --> 00:22:18,805
of those missile launchers
by now.
561
00:22:18,905 --> 00:22:20,206
Actually, no. It looks like
562
00:22:20,306 --> 00:22:21,874
someone locked them out
of MTAC's systems.
563
00:22:21,974 --> 00:22:23,209
Then cut
564
00:22:23,309 --> 00:22:25,211
all internal access
to the security cameras.
565
00:22:25,311 --> 00:22:26,813
Who?
KASIE: (sighs) Don't know.
566
00:22:26,913 --> 00:22:28,247
Someone loyal to the mutiny.
567
00:22:28,415 --> 00:22:30,016
By the way,
we're all going to jail, right?
568
00:22:30,116 --> 00:22:32,819
Kasie, we can't ask you to get
569
00:22:32,919 --> 00:22:34,420
more involved in...
Oh, please. Don't insult me.
570
00:22:34,421 --> 00:22:36,022
Okay? Plus, I have been
dying to write,
571
00:22:36,122 --> 00:22:38,057
"Stopped World War III"
on my résumé for years.
572
00:22:38,157 --> 00:22:39,759
Okay, now look,
the problem is,
573
00:22:39,859 --> 00:22:42,495
the FBI's gonna get back
into MTAC's systems pretty soon.
574
00:22:42,595 --> 00:22:43,730
Okay, what if we
cut the power?
575
00:22:43,830 --> 00:22:45,097
How?
576
00:22:45,197 --> 00:22:46,599
Main conduit is-is down
in the evidence garage.
577
00:22:46,699 --> 00:22:47,834
We got FBI crawling
all over the place.
578
00:22:47,934 --> 00:22:49,001
Yeah, without security cameras,
579
00:22:49,101 --> 00:22:50,002
we'd be flying blind.
580
00:22:50,102 --> 00:22:52,238
Oh, ye of little faith.
581
00:22:52,338 --> 00:22:54,006
You got something
up your sleeve?
582
00:22:54,106 --> 00:22:56,442
You really don't think that
I've just been sitting here
583
00:22:56,443 --> 00:22:58,344
letting you guys
have all the fun, do you?
584
00:22:58,445 --> 00:23:00,246
(laughs) Come on.
585
00:23:00,346 --> 00:23:02,482
KNIGHT:
Okay, this guy
keeps doing a loop.
586
00:23:02,582 --> 00:23:03,516
He leaves the
back stairwell open
587
00:23:03,616 --> 00:23:04,984
for about 20 seconds.
588
00:23:05,084 --> 00:23:06,352
No way, barely 15.
589
00:23:06,453 --> 00:23:07,854
KNIGHT:
(chuckles) And that is why
590
00:23:07,954 --> 00:23:09,656
you would always burn
the microwave popcorn.
591
00:23:09,756 --> 00:23:11,290
Okay, guys,
please stop fighting.
592
00:23:11,458 --> 00:23:12,692
Is it 20 or is it 15?
593
00:23:12,792 --> 00:23:14,827
When the FBI first locked down
the building,
594
00:23:14,927 --> 00:23:15,828
I quietly opened
595
00:23:15,928 --> 00:23:17,363
an outside TCP portal
596
00:23:17,464 --> 00:23:19,098
in an app I knew
they'd never notice.
597
00:23:19,198 --> 00:23:20,833
This MateQuest app?
598
00:23:20,933 --> 00:23:22,134
Oh, you're not on it?
599
00:23:22,234 --> 00:23:23,670
'Cause everyone else is.
600
00:23:23,770 --> 00:23:26,005
Okay, can we just focus?
Can we do that?
601
00:23:26,105 --> 00:23:27,607
KASIE:
Uh, I figured it might be handy
602
00:23:27,707 --> 00:23:29,008
to have a portal
to the outside world,
603
00:23:29,108 --> 00:23:30,877
so when internal access
to the security cameras
604
00:23:30,977 --> 00:23:34,013
went down, it was pretty easy to
reroute them to Jimmy's laptop.
605
00:23:34,113 --> 00:23:36,182
I figured the cameras
might come in handy, too.
606
00:23:36,282 --> 00:23:37,550
You figured right.
607
00:23:37,650 --> 00:23:39,185
You sure there's
no one in the evidence garage?
608
00:23:39,285 --> 00:23:40,720
We don't have a camera in there,
609
00:23:40,820 --> 00:23:42,489
but, uh, we haven't seen anyone
go down yet.
610
00:23:42,589 --> 00:23:44,824
All right, thanks.
If, uh, if Torres calls again...
611
00:23:44,924 --> 00:23:46,559
We haven't seen Torres
in a while,
612
00:23:46,659 --> 00:23:49,161
so he's either been captured
or his cell phone died.
613
00:23:49,261 --> 00:23:50,497
Well, if he does,
614
00:23:50,597 --> 00:23:51,931
please tell him what
we're trying to do here.
615
00:23:52,799 --> 00:23:55,034
Speaking of which,
we should probably brief Vance.
616
00:23:55,134 --> 00:23:56,536
He's not on this app, is he?
617
00:23:56,636 --> 00:23:57,970
No, but I'm sure the FBI
618
00:23:58,070 --> 00:23:59,405
has already told him
what's happening.
619
00:23:59,506 --> 00:24:00,873
He's got to be losing
his mind right now.
620
00:24:00,973 --> 00:24:02,308
Yeah. It's probably better
621
00:24:02,408 --> 00:24:03,910
if we can't get ahold of him.
You ready?
622
00:24:05,377 --> 00:24:08,180
Oh. Electrical blueprints.
Yeah.
623
00:24:09,048 --> 00:24:10,783
Have fun storming the castle.
624
00:24:10,883 --> 00:24:12,885
Aka committing treason.
625
00:24:12,985 --> 00:24:17,123
KNIGHT:
Okay, they are gonna be off
the radar for a few minutes.
626
00:24:17,223 --> 00:24:21,060
And we are back to
just... sitting here.
627
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:22,629
(chuckles)
Awkwardly.
628
00:24:22,729 --> 00:24:25,598
No, no. We agreed that, uh,
feeling awkward is silly.
629
00:24:25,698 --> 00:24:27,600
Right?
Right. Very, very silly.
630
00:24:27,700 --> 00:24:28,901
Yeah.
631
00:24:30,202 --> 00:24:31,838
(clears throat)
632
00:24:31,938 --> 00:24:35,608
I think we-we said we were
gonna talk about... something.
633
00:24:35,708 --> 00:24:38,277
Sounds vaguely familiar, yeah.
634
00:24:38,377 --> 00:24:40,713
Yeah. About what?
635
00:24:41,748 --> 00:24:45,151
I'm not exactly sure, but, uh,
just off the top of my head,
636
00:24:45,251 --> 00:24:46,686
we broke up when
you were across the country,
637
00:24:46,786 --> 00:24:47,954
but now you're back
and we're working together,
638
00:24:48,054 --> 00:24:49,555
so has anything really changed?
639
00:24:49,556 --> 00:24:51,557
And we should probably
establish some ground rules
640
00:24:51,558 --> 00:24:55,061
because everyone around us
is walking on eggshells.
641
00:24:55,928 --> 00:24:57,396
Oh.
642
00:24:58,631 --> 00:25:00,466
(door opens loudly)
643
00:25:00,567 --> 00:25:02,168
(soft creaking)
644
00:25:02,268 --> 00:25:04,370
Could you have made
any more noise coming in?
645
00:25:04,470 --> 00:25:06,072
I'm not the one
with squeaky shoes.
646
00:25:06,172 --> 00:25:07,573
I'm still
breaking them in.
647
00:25:07,574 --> 00:25:08,875
All right, where's that
electrical conduit?
648
00:25:08,975 --> 00:25:09,942
We got to move fast.
649
00:25:10,042 --> 00:25:11,343
(clattering)
650
00:25:11,443 --> 00:25:13,212
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
651
00:25:16,683 --> 00:25:18,785
Hey, you can relax.
652
00:25:19,986 --> 00:25:22,454
Hey, I didn't hear
any squeaky shoes,
653
00:25:22,589 --> 00:25:24,891
but I did hear the two of you
fighting, like, a mile away.
654
00:25:24,991 --> 00:25:27,126
Good to see you, too, brother.
Look who's here.
655
00:25:27,226 --> 00:25:28,127
I love this team.
656
00:25:28,227 --> 00:25:29,228
What're you doing down there?
657
00:25:29,328 --> 00:25:30,697
It's kind of like magic.
658
00:25:30,797 --> 00:25:32,064
My phone died.
659
00:25:32,164 --> 00:25:33,465
I thought I could find
a charger in evidence.
660
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,968
Okay, or a coincidence.
I still love it.
661
00:25:36,068 --> 00:25:38,605
What's the plan?
We're cutting the power to MTAC.
662
00:25:38,705 --> 00:25:40,106
It'll stop the upload
663
00:25:40,206 --> 00:25:42,274
and give Kasie time to decrypt
that second message.
664
00:25:42,374 --> 00:25:43,442
It's a good plan.
665
00:25:43,610 --> 00:25:44,744
Blueprints.
666
00:25:46,746 --> 00:25:48,380
All right.
667
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,116
Main power line is here,
668
00:25:50,216 --> 00:25:52,284
branches off to the J box here,
669
00:25:52,384 --> 00:25:55,621
which means the MTAC conduit...
670
00:25:55,622 --> 00:25:57,189
there.
671
00:26:01,360 --> 00:26:03,696
Not behind that
concrete, I hope.
672
00:26:03,796 --> 00:26:06,465
No, exactly behind
that concrete.
673
00:26:06,633 --> 00:26:08,868
PARKER: What is
MTAC's electrical line
674
00:26:08,968 --> 00:26:11,403
doing behind a giant chunk
of concrete?
675
00:26:11,503 --> 00:26:14,373
Probably so nobody does
what we're about to do.
676
00:26:14,473 --> 00:26:16,709
You don't think this is
something you should've, uh,
677
00:26:16,809 --> 00:26:18,244
I don't know, mentioned?
678
00:26:18,344 --> 00:26:19,746
I just found
this out myself.
679
00:26:19,846 --> 00:26:21,681
I mean, I would've remembered
to bring my sledgehammer.
680
00:26:21,781 --> 00:26:22,882
TORRES:
Wait, wait.
681
00:26:22,982 --> 00:26:24,884
Do you remember
that smash-and-grab case
682
00:26:24,984 --> 00:26:26,052
that Sawyer
was working on?
683
00:26:26,152 --> 00:26:27,987
Bad guys used
sledgehammers.
684
00:26:28,087 --> 00:26:30,657
They're not slated for
destruction until next week.
685
00:26:32,358 --> 00:26:33,826
Okay, here we go.
686
00:26:33,926 --> 00:26:35,695
Here we go.
687
00:26:35,795 --> 00:26:37,664
Game on.
688
00:26:37,764 --> 00:26:38,998
Here.
689
00:26:40,366 --> 00:26:41,668
What about the noise?
690
00:26:41,768 --> 00:26:43,369
There's no way
the FBI's not gonna hear us.
691
00:26:43,469 --> 00:26:48,174
Well, they can't hear us
if they can't hear us.
692
00:26:49,141 --> 00:26:51,277
Which means what, exactly?
693
00:26:51,377 --> 00:26:53,245
Another minute,
we'll be back in the system.
694
00:26:53,345 --> 00:26:54,680
As soon as you find out
695
00:26:54,681 --> 00:26:56,115
where those Belarus
missile launchers are,
696
00:26:56,215 --> 00:26:58,084
upload the data
directly to the Pentagon.
697
00:26:58,184 --> 00:27:00,252
And you, find out
where Agent Yarketti is.
698
00:27:00,352 --> 00:27:02,488
He hasn't reported in.
TECH: 30 seconds.
699
00:27:02,588 --> 00:27:06,325
I finally got you right
where I want you, Parker.
700
00:27:06,425 --> 00:27:07,693
TECH:

He's still in

00:28:41,553 --> 00:28:42,521
I'm gonna say yes.
737
00:28:42,621 --> 00:28:44,857
We did something,
that's for sure.
738
00:28:44,957 --> 00:28:46,492
McGee?
Uh...
739
00:28:46,592 --> 00:28:48,828
We didn't just
cut the power to MTAC.
740
00:28:48,928 --> 00:28:52,098
We blew everything. Power's out
probably in the entire building.
741
00:28:52,198 --> 00:28:53,632
That's good, right?
742
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:55,801
No. No. If there's no power
in the building...
743
00:28:55,802 --> 00:28:58,838
Kasie's not gonna be able to
finish decrypting the message.
744
00:28:58,938 --> 00:29:01,207
Yeah, and Sweeney probably knows
that we're still here.

00:29:03,509 --> 00:29:06,112

Um, it's Director Vance.
What do I do?
748
00:29:11,283 --> 00:29:12,985
(phone continues ringing)
749
00:29:15,888 --> 00:29:18,057
Don't answer it.
750
00:29:18,891 --> 00:29:20,459
(phone stops ringing)
751
00:29:25,297 --> 00:29:26,598
TORRES:
Well?
752
00:29:26,698 --> 00:29:29,135
All right, I think I found
the feed to Kasie's lab.
753
00:29:29,235 --> 00:29:31,137
Just need to reconnect it
to the main power line.
754
00:29:31,237 --> 00:29:32,872
Not gonna happen. (sighs)
755
00:29:32,972 --> 00:29:35,041
The electrical panel is toast.
We melted almost every breaker.
756
00:29:35,141 --> 00:29:38,844
Maybe we hot-wire the lab and
feed it another power source.
757
00:29:38,845 --> 00:29:40,612
Like what?
758
00:29:40,712 --> 00:29:41,981
This.
759
00:29:43,883 --> 00:29:45,918
The backup to the doors.
760
00:29:46,018 --> 00:29:47,486
The emergency batteries.
761
00:29:47,586 --> 00:29:49,922
They power the roller doors
in case of an outage.
762
00:29:50,022 --> 00:29:52,258
We can use that to restore
the power to the lab.
763
00:29:52,358 --> 00:29:53,592
Great idea.
764
00:29:53,692 --> 00:29:54,961
I think I'll steal it.
765
00:29:55,061 --> 00:29:56,295
Hands on your heads.
766
00:29:56,395 --> 00:29:59,331
You're all really,
really under arrest.
767
00:29:59,431 --> 00:30:01,500
Sweeney.
Not...
768
00:30:02,601 --> 00:30:04,236
...another word.
769
00:30:11,110 --> 00:30:13,980
Does MTAC have power?
FBI AGENT (over walkie):
Affirmative.
770
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:15,481
Forensics and autopsy, too.
771
00:30:15,581 --> 00:30:17,116
Let me know the second
you're ready to upload
772
00:30:17,216 --> 00:30:19,351
those target coordinates.
FBI AGENT: Copy that.
773
00:30:19,451 --> 00:30:20,352
Sweeney.
774
00:30:20,452 --> 00:30:22,321
So I say, "Not another word,"
775
00:30:22,421 --> 00:30:23,755
and you just keep on talking.
776
00:30:23,856 --> 00:30:25,524
If you give up
those launch coordinates,
777
00:30:25,624 --> 00:30:27,159
we're dropping a nuke.
778
00:30:27,259 --> 00:30:29,628
McGEE:
Your guy just said the power
is on in forensics.
779
00:30:29,728 --> 00:30:33,232
Please give Kasie more time
to decrypt the message.
780
00:30:34,066 --> 00:30:36,168
If this is really
a stand-down order,
781
00:30:36,268 --> 00:30:38,004
we can call off our attack.
782
00:30:38,104 --> 00:30:40,339
You think I don't know that?
783
00:30:40,439 --> 00:30:42,708
But Air Force One
has been compromised,
784
00:30:42,808 --> 00:30:45,344
the V.P. is unconscious
in a surgical suite,
785
00:30:45,444 --> 00:30:47,313
and the decision to launch
a nuclear attack
786
00:30:47,413 --> 00:30:49,949
has been made by
the Acting Commander in Chief.
787
00:30:50,049 --> 00:30:53,552
He's shooting from the hip
with the nuclear football.
788
00:30:53,652 --> 00:30:56,522
We don't have the luxury
of taking our time on this.
789
00:30:56,622 --> 00:30:58,557
It could take another hour
to decrypt this tr...
790
00:30:58,657 --> 00:31:00,993
KASIE (over walkie):
Um, hi. Is this thing on?
791
00:31:01,093 --> 00:31:02,428
Um, I heard all that
"We don't have
792
00:31:02,528 --> 00:31:04,196
the luxury of second-guessing"
business,
793
00:31:04,296 --> 00:31:05,431
but I thought you should know,
794
00:31:05,531 --> 00:31:07,133
my babies are breathing again,
795
00:31:07,233 --> 00:31:08,600
and I am really close
796
00:31:08,700 --> 00:31:10,436
to decrypting
that second message.
797
00:31:10,536 --> 00:31:13,605
FBI AGENT (over walkie):
Sir, we have
the target coordinates.
798
00:31:13,705 --> 00:31:16,775
Like really, really close.
799
00:31:16,943 --> 00:31:19,145
FBI AGENT:
Should we upload?
800
00:31:29,956 --> 00:31:31,423
No.
801
00:31:32,959 --> 00:31:34,826
Hold the upload.
802
00:31:37,429 --> 00:31:38,830
Kasie, you got three minutes.
803
00:31:38,965 --> 00:31:40,366
Yes, sir.
804
00:31:42,168 --> 00:31:45,337
You better be right, or
we're both in a lot of trouble.
805
00:31:45,437 --> 00:31:49,341
If I'm wrong, the whole world's
in a lot of trouble.
806
00:31:51,243 --> 00:31:53,512
What do you think's happening?
I don't know.
807
00:31:53,612 --> 00:31:56,848
But McGee and Parker were
clearly able to cut the power.
808
00:31:58,017 --> 00:31:59,985
So we'll just have
to wait to find out.
809
00:31:59,986 --> 00:32:01,653
Do you have any
cards around here?
810
00:32:01,753 --> 00:32:04,290
I feel like maybe we could play
some Go Fish or something.
811
00:32:06,258 --> 00:32:07,994
Actually, um...
812
00:32:11,463 --> 00:32:14,600
...I'd like to circle back
to something you said before.
813
00:32:14,700 --> 00:32:16,335
About...
814
00:32:16,435 --> 00:32:18,604
About how
if anything has changed
815
00:32:18,704 --> 00:32:21,140
now that I'm back in D.C.
816
00:32:23,275 --> 00:32:25,111
Right.
817
00:32:25,211 --> 00:32:28,180
Well... has anything changed?
818
00:32:29,215 --> 00:32:32,518
Do you want anything to change?
819
00:32:32,618 --> 00:32:35,254
Well, one thing I know
hasn't changed is, uh...
820
00:32:35,354 --> 00:32:37,556
I still love you.
821
00:32:38,690 --> 00:32:40,726
I was going to say
822
00:32:40,826 --> 00:32:43,562
we both have things
we need to work out, but...
823
00:32:43,662 --> 00:32:45,431
yeah.
824
00:32:45,531 --> 00:32:48,034
That hasn't
changed, either.
825
00:32:50,136 --> 00:32:52,071
I still love you, too.
826
00:32:55,041 --> 00:32:57,343
Wouldn't it be nice
if that were enough?
827
00:32:59,878 --> 00:33:01,813
Someone should write a song.
828
00:33:02,048 --> 00:33:04,450
(both laugh softly)
829
00:33:04,550 --> 00:33:06,352
(sighs)
830
00:33:06,452 --> 00:33:08,287
But you're right.
831
00:33:09,088 --> 00:33:11,657
We both have things
that we need to work out.
832
00:33:14,293 --> 00:33:16,628
Jess, you
deserve someone
833
00:33:16,728 --> 00:33:18,830
who will chase down
future job opportunities
834
00:33:18,930 --> 00:33:21,367
around the world with you,
you know, like Indiana Jones.
835
00:33:21,467 --> 00:33:24,070
(laughs)
Leave at a moment's notice.
836
00:33:24,170 --> 00:33:26,672
Someone who'll give you
everything that you want.
837
00:33:30,076 --> 00:33:32,244
And that's not me.
838
00:33:33,645 --> 00:33:36,815
I mean, at least not right now.
839
00:33:38,184 --> 00:33:39,985
(sniffles)
840
00:33:41,153 --> 00:33:43,355
(laughs)
841
00:33:43,455 --> 00:33:45,591
(sighs)
842
00:33:46,992 --> 00:33:50,696
And you deserve that stability
that you so badly need.
843
00:33:53,332 --> 00:33:56,335
That I want you to have, and
I wish I could give it to you.
844
00:34:00,472 --> 00:34:02,441
But, hell, maybe there's a...
845
00:34:02,541 --> 00:34:04,510
a checkbox on that on MateQuest?
846
00:34:04,610 --> 00:34:07,012
(laughs)
(laughs) You trying
to replace Nick as my WingMan?
847
00:34:07,113 --> 00:34:08,614
Is that what we're saying here?
848
00:34:08,714 --> 00:34:10,282
(laughs) I mean,
what do I got to do?
849
00:34:10,382 --> 00:34:13,118
You just got to say nice things
about me in my profile.
850
00:34:13,119 --> 00:34:15,321
Oh, I could do that all day.
851
00:34:15,421 --> 00:34:17,623
Not gonna happen.
852
00:34:19,125 --> 00:34:21,793
No, of course not.
853
00:34:27,933 --> 00:34:30,202
(footsteps approaching)
854
00:34:39,245 --> 00:34:41,213
(timer beeping)
855
00:34:45,651 --> 00:34:47,786
Time's up.
856
00:34:49,488 --> 00:34:51,156
You are clear...
KASIE:
Wait!
857
00:34:51,157 --> 00:34:52,524
Wait! Wait.
858
00:34:52,624 --> 00:34:53,825
I just... Oh.
859
00:34:53,925 --> 00:34:55,661
Give me. Wait.
Give me... give me a sec.
860
00:34:55,761 --> 00:34:56,995
(Kasie wheezes)
861
00:34:57,163 --> 00:34:59,165
Okay. Elevator was out.
862
00:34:59,265 --> 00:35:00,699
Kasie!
I have to...
863
00:35:00,799 --> 00:35:02,768
Kasie!
Did you decode the message?
864
00:35:02,868 --> 00:35:05,537
Yeah. (panting)
Let's see!
865
00:35:05,637 --> 00:35:07,173
(Kasie sniffles)
866
00:35:09,341 --> 00:35:11,743
(Kasie panting)
867
00:35:39,905 --> 00:35:42,574
Tell the chairman of the Joint
Chiefs I need to talk to him.
868
00:35:43,775 --> 00:35:47,346
SWEENEY:
According
to the second transmission,
869
00:35:47,446 --> 00:35:50,482
Ukrainian Special Forces
took out the Belarus launchers
870
00:35:50,582 --> 00:35:52,218
30 minutes ago.
871
00:35:54,786 --> 00:35:57,222
Pentagon needs
to task a satellite ASAP
872
00:35:57,223 --> 00:35:59,024
to confirm, but...
873
00:36:01,860 --> 00:36:03,229
We need to call off our attack.
874
00:36:03,329 --> 00:36:04,396
Yes!
(cheering)
875
00:36:04,496 --> 00:36:05,597
(applause)
MAN:
Yes! Yes!
876
00:36:05,697 --> 00:36:07,098
MAN 2:

(seabirds calling)

REPORTER:
Details are scarce,
886
00:36:36,728 --> 00:36:39,264
but sources in Brussels
have now confirmed
887
00:36:39,265 --> 00:36:40,599
that a major terrorist attack
888
00:36:40,699 --> 00:36:43,101
was thwarted
by Ukrainian Special Forces
889
00:36:43,269 --> 00:36:44,736
three days ago.
890
00:36:44,836 --> 00:36:46,605
While the specifics
of the operation
891
00:36:46,705 --> 00:36:48,707
are yet to be fully disclosed...

Sir, the troublemakers are here.

00:37:04,723 --> 00:37:07,726
All right, send them in.

(sighs)
895
00:37:15,166 --> 00:37:16,535
VANCE:
I know you both have a...
896
00:37:16,635 --> 00:37:20,306
classified Department of Defense
hearing to attend,
897
00:37:20,406 --> 00:37:22,173
so, I won't keep you.
898
00:37:24,142 --> 00:37:26,077
You know, I'd be more than happy
to pay for...
899
00:37:26,177 --> 00:37:29,515
Oh, I don't think
you can afford what you broke.
900
00:37:29,615 --> 00:37:31,082
And the extra
three minutes
901
00:37:31,182 --> 00:37:33,652
you gave Ms. Hines--
that didn't come cheap, either.
902
00:37:33,752 --> 00:37:35,387
Ignoring direct orders
903
00:37:35,487 --> 00:37:37,222
from the CJCS is
a good way to lose

not only your job
but also your freedom.
905
00:37:40,191 --> 00:37:41,660
Both of you.
906
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:43,695
Gentlemen,
907
00:37:43,795 --> 00:37:46,398
does the year 1956 ring a bell?
908
00:37:46,498 --> 00:37:49,100
Do we get a hint?
No.
909
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:50,736
1956,
910
00:37:50,836 --> 00:37:55,407
the United States received
simultaneous reports
911
00:37:55,507 --> 00:37:58,344
of an unidentified aircraft
flying over Turkey,
912
00:37:58,444 --> 00:37:59,778
followed by a report
913
00:37:59,878 --> 00:38:02,113
that a British bomber
was shot out of the sky.
914
00:38:02,348 --> 00:38:04,182
Our top analysts believed
that this was the start
915
00:38:04,350 --> 00:38:05,751
of a Soviet offensive.
916
00:38:05,851 --> 00:38:08,420
We were minutes away
from launching a nuclear attack
917
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:11,122
against Moscow, but do you know
why we didn't it?
918
00:38:12,057 --> 00:38:13,825
Yes, Agent Sweeney?
919
00:38:13,925 --> 00:38:16,094
That British bomber wasn't
actually shot out of the sky.
920
00:38:16,194 --> 00:38:17,629
It was just
a mechanical failure.
921
00:38:17,729 --> 00:38:19,631
And the unidentified aircraft
922
00:38:19,731 --> 00:38:22,434
over Turkey was actually
a wedge of swans.
923
00:38:22,534 --> 00:38:23,835
Cygnus olor,
924
00:38:23,935 --> 00:38:25,504
if I'm not mistake...
925
00:38:25,604 --> 00:38:28,206
We can just say swans.
Correct.
926
00:38:28,374 --> 00:38:31,877
Those events were simply
ill-timed coincidences,
927
00:38:31,977 --> 00:38:34,813
and they almost started
World War III.
928
00:38:36,948 --> 00:38:38,850
Funnily enough,
929
00:38:38,950 --> 00:38:40,819
we had a few of our own
930
00:38:40,919 --> 00:38:43,154
ill-timed coincidences
this week.
931
00:38:43,254 --> 00:38:46,124
The communications failure
aboard Air Force One
932
00:38:46,224 --> 00:38:48,293
was not the result
of a cyberattack.
933
00:38:48,394 --> 00:38:49,561
Sir?
934
00:38:49,661 --> 00:38:51,229
It was the remnant
935
00:38:51,397 --> 00:38:52,564
of a malicious code
936
00:38:52,664 --> 00:38:54,132
that Leonard Rish's daughter
uploaded
937
00:38:54,232 --> 00:38:56,201
last year.
Apparently,
938
00:38:56,301 --> 00:38:58,637
it wasn't thoroughly purged
from the system.
939
00:38:58,737 --> 00:39:00,071
And the Vice President?
940
00:39:00,171 --> 00:39:02,007
Bad chicken. In fact,
941
00:39:02,107 --> 00:39:04,443
an entire delegation
from China went down.
942
00:39:04,543 --> 00:39:07,112
But the Belarus attack--
that was real.
Yes.
943
00:39:07,212 --> 00:39:08,780
Yes, it was.
944
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:13,084
And Ukrainian Special Forces did
destroy those missile launchers.
945
00:39:13,184 --> 00:39:14,620
But apparently,
946
00:39:14,720 --> 00:39:17,288
before Naples had even
decoded that very first message.
947
00:39:17,423 --> 00:39:20,492
So by the time we
got to the party,
948
00:39:20,592 --> 00:39:22,994
it was already over.
949
00:39:24,095 --> 00:39:25,797
Gentlemen,
950
00:39:25,897 --> 00:39:28,500
the reason we didn't attack
the Soviets in 1956
951
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:31,737
wasn't because
the system worked.
952
00:39:31,837 --> 00:39:32,938
The system failed.
953
00:39:33,038 --> 00:39:35,474
The reason we
didn't attack
954
00:39:35,574 --> 00:39:38,043
was because of individuals...
955
00:39:39,578 --> 00:39:41,480
...who rose above
their station,
956
00:39:41,580 --> 00:39:44,049
at great personal risk...
957
00:39:45,751 --> 00:39:48,053
...to do what they
believed was right.
958
00:39:49,087 --> 00:39:50,956
Thus,
959
00:39:51,056 --> 00:39:53,091
it is my honor
960
00:39:53,191 --> 00:39:54,960
to inform both of you
961
00:39:55,060 --> 00:39:59,465
that myself, along with the
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs,
962
00:39:59,565 --> 00:40:02,167
are recommending
to the President
963
00:40:02,267 --> 00:40:03,502
that you both be awarded
964
00:40:03,602 --> 00:40:06,304
the Distinguished Medal
of Public Service
965
00:40:06,404 --> 00:40:08,607
for your
exceptional efforts
966
00:40:08,707 --> 00:40:10,676
in protecting
your country
967
00:40:10,776 --> 00:40:13,144
and our NATO allies.
968
00:40:14,780 --> 00:40:17,516
Just don't do it again.
969
00:40:17,616 --> 00:40:19,918
At least not in my building.
970
00:40:26,124 --> 00:40:28,026
So.
So.
971
00:40:28,126 --> 00:40:29,961
You see that coming?
I didn't see that coming.
972
00:40:30,061 --> 00:40:32,598
No, I did not.
973
00:40:34,900 --> 00:40:36,968
Oh, yeah, yeah.
974
00:40:37,068 --> 00:40:39,170
(indistinct chatter)
975
00:40:41,172 --> 00:40:43,008
But really...
976
00:40:43,108 --> 00:40:45,043
if there are any honors
being given out...
977
00:40:45,143 --> 00:40:47,212
FYI, that's not
a complete sentence.
978
00:40:47,312 --> 00:40:49,247
You can be such a bastard
sometimes.
979
00:40:49,347 --> 00:40:50,849
You're really gonna
make me say it?
980
00:40:50,949 --> 00:40:52,217
Yup.
981
00:40:52,317 --> 00:40:54,586
(laughs)
Damn you, Parker.
982
00:40:55,621 --> 00:40:57,523
You were right.
983
00:40:57,623 --> 00:40:59,257
I was wrong. Okay?
984
00:40:59,357 --> 00:41:01,059
Was that supposed
to be a compliment?
985
00:41:01,159 --> 00:41:02,661
Don't get used to it.
986
00:41:02,761 --> 00:41:04,529
Well, you're being too hard
on yourself.
987
00:41:04,530 --> 00:41:06,331
If you didn't give Kasie
those extra three minutes
988
00:41:06,431 --> 00:41:08,299
to decode that message,
then it was...
Don't remind me.
989
00:41:08,399 --> 00:41:12,671
I've been up the past two nights
thinking about it because, um...
990
00:41:14,573 --> 00:41:17,075
...I almost didn't.
991
00:41:17,909 --> 00:41:19,144
So why did you?
992
00:41:19,244 --> 00:41:22,113
I don't really like
to talk about it, but...
993
00:41:23,214 --> 00:41:25,350
(sighs)
...I'm very much a man
guided by my faith.
994
00:41:25,450 --> 00:41:26,918
Uh, my father
995
00:41:27,018 --> 00:41:28,553
preached the gospel
every Sunday,
996
00:41:28,554 --> 00:41:30,188
my mother led
the church choir.
997
00:41:30,288 --> 00:41:31,790
And...
998
00:41:31,890 --> 00:41:33,792
when it came
down to the wire,
999
00:41:33,892 --> 00:41:35,661
my faith told me
1000
00:41:35,761 --> 00:41:38,997
that a shoot-first,
ask-questions-later mindset
1001
00:41:39,097 --> 00:41:42,133
isn't such a good idea when
it comes to nuclear weapons.
1002
00:41:42,233 --> 00:41:44,469
How about you?
Why'd you do it?
1003
00:41:46,437 --> 00:41:48,173
Something Einstein said.
1004
00:41:48,273 --> 00:41:50,976
"I don't know what weapons World
War III will be fought with,
1005
00:41:51,076 --> 00:41:54,579
but World War IV will be fought
with sticks and stones."
1006
00:41:54,580 --> 00:41:57,582
And one day,
my soul will be judged, too.
1007
00:41:57,583 --> 00:42:01,687
And I just couldn't let someone
who is that bad at geography...
1008
00:42:01,787 --> 00:42:05,156
(chuckling)
...play footsie
with Armageddon.
1009
00:42:05,991 --> 00:42:07,759
I'll drink to that. In fact,
1010
00:42:07,859 --> 00:42:10,061
if we're both free men
after the hearing,
1011
00:42:10,161 --> 00:42:12,030
want to grab a beer?
1012
00:42:12,864 --> 00:42:15,200
Eh. You buying?
1013
00:42:15,300 --> 00:42:16,868
Don't push your luck.
