Yeah, honey, it's so beautiful here.
And I was thinking, when I get back,
maybe we should do that trip you're always talking about.
Yeah, winery.
Yeah. You go ahead and book it.
Ask your mom to watch the dogs.
I love you, too.
Well, did HPD give you any more info?
Okay. All right, well, you and Kai head to the beach.
I'll meet you there.
Yeah.
Mm.
Negative. That's good.
Can't be right. I feel like I got hit by a truck.
It's probably just the flu.
Flu?
Yeah, it was all the rage back in the olden days.
So, does that mean I can take two Tylenol and go to school?
Definitely not.
I would actually rather take my AP Physics exam
than feel this achy.
Is that a sign of maturity?
Maybe you just like physics.
All right, drink lots of fluids.
Don't just sip it, okay?
I got to go, but when I come back, I will make you soup.
Arroz caldo?
You remember.
It's the best thing ever.
That's the fever talking.
All right. Mm!
You might not want to do that. Oh, come on, now.
I love you.
Love you.
Don't forget. Fluids.
Yeah, yeah.
Victim is Captain Willem Dennison.
Member of the Marine Force Recon
and part of the Black Diamonds.
Well, what's Dennison doing out here?
There are plenty of nice beaches
closer to K-Bay.
We don't know.
Robbery gone wrong maybe?
Doesn't look like it.
HPD found his rental car nearby.
Wallet, watch, and wedding ring were on the passenger seat.
Cell phone and 9mm were on the body.
Sounds like a suicide.
I'd agree...
except the gun was still in his waistband.
And these are some serious blows to the head.
Oh. I suppose the idea that he came out here
to kill himself and was unlucky enough
to run into a psychopath beforehand seems unlikely.
Any witnesses?
No. Just the fishermen who found him this morning.
You guys go to K-Bay, talk to his platoon.
I'll have Casualty Assistance notify his wife.
I'll follow up with her afterwards.
Let's find out who wanted this Marine dead.
Don't move!
Clear!
PTL.
Looks like you got them all.
This is a closed exercise.
Master Sergeant Justin Baxter?
We're with NCIS. We need to speak with you.
Why?
We have news.
All right.
Everybody, listen up.
NCIS has got something to say.
Might be best if we, uh, talk to you alone.
Oh, no, we're a team.
Good news, bad news, we deal with it together.
We regret to inform you
Captain Dennison was found dead this morning.
Damn.
We're gonna need to ask you all some questions.
Whatever you need, sir.
Water break. Everybody out.
Yes, sir.
What exactly happened to the captain?
He was beaten to death on a leeward beach.
Any idea why he would be way out there?
No.
No, any of you guys know?
Okay.
Was Dennison having trouble with anyone on base?
Not that I'm aware of.
Did Dennison mention having problems with anybody off base?
Uh...
I can't imagine.
I mean, Captain Dennison was a great guy.
Everybody loved him.
I was actually talking
to your Marine here.
I agree with the Master Sergeant, sir.
Somebody killed him.
Any information you have may help us figure out who.
So we're gonna need to speak to each one of you separately.
Absolutely, sir,
uh, as soon as you get permission from Command.
We're on a schedule. Everybody fall in.
You know what's happening here.
Yeah, they're being really uncooperative but in a nice way.
They're going shields up.
I saw it all the time when I was with CID.
They're refusing to answer questions to protect their own.
To protect who? Not their captain, that's for sure.
Corporal Grange?
Yes, sir. Did you notice
Captain Dennison's behavior change recently?
Not that I saw.
He was always upbeat.
A really...
Great guy?
Yes, sir.
Hey.
Yeah. Listen.
I was in the Marine Corps before joining NCIS,
so I get where you're coming from.
You want to protect your unit, but, look, don't you want
to help us figure out what happened to your captain?
Of course we do.
If we knew something, we'd do something.
Whoa.
Nice swing, Doc.
We could use you on the NCIS team.
"Hitting is an art but not an exact science."
Rod Carew.
Uh, Minnesota Twins, second base, right?
Yes, 1991 Hall of Fame. Wow.
I.. I wouldn't have expected you to be a baseball fan.
Well, just the Twins.
Only way to connect with my family growing up in Red Wing.
I spent a summer memorizing the stats of every player,
major and minor, from 1977 to 1983.
I was hoping it would make me feel like less of the odd child.
Did it help?
Only freaked them out more.
Wow.
Captain Dennison had
severe blunt force trauma to the head.
Wound pattern suggests the murder weapon
was rounded, like a bat.
"Like a bat," so you aren't sure?
Oh, no, I'm sure.
I found traces of wood particles in the wound.
Grains of Northern White Ash,
popular in forests in the northeast.
Narrows it down to about 150 models.
Well, whatever bat was used, it was no match for a gun,
which our Marine had but never used.
He didn't have a chance.
The first blow was likely to the back of the head.
Causing nerve damage that would incapacitate him.
So, a surprise attack. Yes.
And the second blow came from a different direction.
Made direct contact
with the frontal lobe.
It's possible you're looking
for two attackers.
Or one elite switch hitter.
This team of Black Diamonds
has been working together since 2017.
After a successful mission in Afghanistan,
their reputation was only heightened
by their next assignment in Niger.
What happened? They saved a bunch of civilians
from a fire started by insurgents.
And they got a lot of press.
They've been the jewel of the Marine Corps ever since.
Huh.
When I spoke to Dennison's wife,
she told me that he was looking to transfer out.
Why do that if they were so successful?
Seems like the mood changed after that mission.
Yeah, records indicate there was discord amongst the ranks.
Several members were written up for insubordination.
Nothing too serious on the surface,
except for this guy.
Former Black Diamond
Sergeant Ellis Kane.
Once on the fast track,
but after the fire in Niger,
Kane barely avoided court-martial
for assaulting Captain Dennison.
What was the fight about?
Neither would say.
Kane took a general discharge
to avoid court-martial.
Okay, where's he now?
No idea.
Fell off the map since leaving the Marine Corps.
Maps?
Who needs maps? I got maps.
What?
You started without me. Makes me insecure.
What'd you get off Dennison's cell?
Geolocations on Dennison's phone,
placing him at an unusual spot the day before his murder.
In North Shore?
Not just the North Shore,
a rando locale in the middle of Mokuleia Forest Reserve.
Were there any training exercises happening out there?
No. In fact,
the rest of his unit was playing volleyball
on the beach while he was gone.
Okay. Kai, Ernie, you guys do some digging.
See what you can get on Sergeant Kane. Jesse?
You and I are going to Mokuleia Forest.
All right, Alex, but however much water you think you need,
just double it.
I love you.
Remember when our kids were little and they would
come home with all these weird-sounding sicknesses?
The croup?
Oh, remember that hand, foot and mouth one?
Oh, gross.
I kind of miss it. Hmm?
Not Alex being sick, but...
him needing me and wanting me to take care of him.
Trust me, he's always going to want you to take care of him,
just in different ways.
Like "Can I get 20 bucks for a date" kind of ways?
Exactly.
Except these days what date costs $20?
Nothing but birds and trees.
Yeah, but there's got to be some reason
that Dennison drove an hour and 15 minutes from K-Bay.
You hear that?
Hello?
Where'd he go? I don't know.
Drop your weapon.
Hands in the air.
Sergeant Ellis Kane?
No.
Brother Ellis Kane.
I serve the Lord now.
You don't seem surprised to hear
about Captain Dennison's murder.
None of us know when our time will come.
Only that it will come.
Did you know his time was about to come?
Because we have reason to believe
that Dennison paid you a visit two nights ago.
He did.
And what'd you two talk about?
Old times.
We were part of the same unit.
We did two tours together, but...
clearly you already know that.
We also know that when you left the Black Diamonds,
it wasn't exactly on good terms.
Thankfully, I made peace with my past.
I found a higher calling.
Before or after you assaulted
Captain Dennison in Niger?
Look, can you explain why Dennison came to see you
and then 24 hours later was found beaten to death
on a beach six miles from here?
No. I cannot.
Cannot or will not?
Because I'm getting a strong "shields up" vibe
from you, Brother. And for the life of me, I can't think why.
Okay, where were you last night at 8:00 p.m.?
I was in my cell.
Reading.
I was in bed by 9:00.
Can someone confirm that? No, I was alone.
So you won't tell us why
you met with Dennison the night before he was murdered
and you have no alibi for his actual murder.
That's my call to worship.
May I go?
The abbot doesn't like it
if we're late.
Sure.
Just don't plan on leaving the island without calling us.
Okay, Brother?
Yeah.
Well, what do you think?
I think we should be taking him with us.
He's gonna be a tough nut to crack without more information.
Like? Like what happened
between Kane and Dennison in Niger.
And did it follow them here to Oahu.
Are you ready to talk Kane?
Yeah, absolutely, but first...
who's that?
Uh, the Marine turned monk,
person of interest in our homicide.
No, I mean who's that?
I have no idea.
Is she unpacking?
Who's that?
I was hoping you knew.
No idea.
Is she unpacking?
Maybe she's lost.
Or moving in.
What are you doing?
I'm gonna act like the professional interrogator I am
and ask.
Can I help you?
Oh, gosh, no.
I'm so sorry about the mess.
I was just looking for my comfier combat boots.
Just got off the plane.
Oh, from?
Guantanamo Bay. They didn't tell you guys?
They should've told you that.
Left at 0300, had to refuel in Mexico City. Oh.
Hot. So hot.
But doesn't matter ‘cos I'm here now.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah. All that, all that way.
Sorry, you are...
Sergeant Summer Westmore.
Marine CID coming in from Guantanamo Bay.
Chief of CID sent her to us.
I, um, I found the 1039 form online.
In the place where we keep... forms.
Nice boots, by the way.
Um... why did your chief send you to us?
I'm here about Captain Dennison.
Because...?
I know why he was murdered.
On May 21, 2019, the Black Diamonds
were doing a routine house-to-house search
for insurgents in Niamey, Niger.
A fire broke out in a civilian dwelling, killing two people.
Yeah, we're aware.
They were heroes, saved almost a dozen others from that fire.
Master Sergeant Justin Baxter was even awarded
the Navy and Marine Corps Medal.
I have reason to believe that's not the whole story.
Are you saying they didn't save these civilians?
No, that part's true.
Shortly after the incident,
I received a tip from a member of their unit.
He claimed he witnessed Justin Baxter start the fire.
Okay, this witness offer up a motive?
Earlier in the day, a local gave Baxter lip.
That young man and his mother both died in the fire.
Baxter murdered them?
For giving him attitude?
According to my witness.
Was your witness Sergeant Ellis Kane?
Yes.
How'd you know?
He lives on the island.
He joined a Benedictine monastery
after leaving the Marine Corps.
Is this what led to the altercation
between Kane and Dennison back in Niger?
No one corroborated Kane's claim against Baxter.
And Captain Dennison wasn't willing
to investigate the incident further.
So, it could be that Kane was pushed out
for making a complaint.
Which would explain the bad blood between them.
Yeah, but not why Dennison came to see him two nights ago.
Look, if Kane was trying to do the right thing in Niger,
why wouldn't he just tell us?
Maybe he started the fire,
blamed it on Baxter,
and Dennison realized it and came to confront him.
Which means we have two solid suspects in Dennison's murder.
Let's get Ernie on Kane and Baxter's movements
over the last few days. Sergeant Westmore?
Down to stay, give us a hand? Sure.
Guys, Niger is the key to what happened to Dennison.
Let's get to the bottom of it.
A sunny September 8th morning,
Kristen and Robbie Jacobs drove...
Alex, I'm home.
Hey.
Soup will be ready in like 45 minutes, okay?
Oh, no need, Jane.
Soup is covered for our little patient.
Cassandra. How sweet.
How you feeling, buddy?
Still not great. Yeah.
Probably stress from everything he has going on.
You know it wreaks havoc on the immune system.
Or he's just sick.
My mom. Always something, am I right?
We've been watching a Crime Trail marathon.
Know what I've learned?
That it's always the husband?
Mm-hmm.
Still warm but a little better.
Oh, one sec.
Hey, Ernie, what's up?
Trying to do everything I can
to track down Brother Kane's whereabouts.
He doesn't have a cell phone
and there are no cameras at the monastery.
But...?
On a lark, I looked at the closest
CCTV footage I could find.
A gas station a mile from the monastery where I found
Brother Kane using a pay phone
an hour before Dennison's murder.
He said he was alone in his cell at 8:00 p.m.
Well, that's definitely not true.
I'm working on getting a record from the pay phone company,
but it's gonna take a beat.
Okay. Jesse and I will talk to him.
Let me know if you find anything else. Bye.
I got to go back to work.
No worries, Mom. Cass has it.
Hmm.
Sure she does.
See you.
But they were no match for a bloodthirsty killer.
Of course I'm all packed,
but I don't think we'll need much.
Baby, I already told you.
I'll stop by later. Okay.
Okay, bye, I got to go now.
Brother Kane.
Are you here to arrest me?
Look, we know that you lied to us
about your alibi the night of Dennison's murder.
I didn't murder Captain Dennison.
Then why didn't you tell us the truth?
I'm sorry I'm unable to give you
the answers that you want.
Unable or unwilling?
Look, you need to tell us everything you know
about Captain Dennison and what happened in Niger,
or we have no choice but to...
Someone's there.
Hey, stop!
Stay here.
Over there.
You go left.
We lost them.
You think Kane's safe here?
‘cos, based on the two guys I saw
in the kitchen earlier making bread,
it's not a, uh, "make a circle, protect your dude"
kind of place.
Make a circle, protect your dude?
It's not really biblical, is it?
Sure. It's from the, uh, first Book of Ass Whupping.
Well, someone should probably stay.
Considering it's a men-only place, I'm guessing that's me.
That's too bad.
Cassandra's seeing someone else and Alex doesn't know.
Oof. Yeah.
I'm sorry.
I think I'd rather sleep in the woods
and guard Brother Kane than go home tonight.
You stay here, work on Kane.
He knows something or he wouldn't be a target.
Oh, good, you're back.
Alex is sleeping. I'm heading out.
Why don't you stay for a minute?
Did Alex ever tell you what I did before NCIS?
Like, he may have mentioned it.
It sounds like it was pretty intense stuff.
It was.
You know, we used to have a word for that feeling we had
in our gut when something wasn't right.
Like... a situation, a person,
or just a shady building.
We called it...
spoozy.
Okay.
Now, the name came from my very first asset.
Amad Spoozy.
Amad was somebody that I relied on.
He would tell me information about the bad guys.
But the problem was,
he was telling the bad guys information about me.
Oh, wow. Not cool.
That is spoozy.
Totally spoozy.
Now, the problem with playing both sides is that eventually
someone finds out.
Who found out?
Oh, everyone.
My asset called me, he was scared.
And I tried to help, but it was too late.
Someone threw a grenade through his bedroom window.
That phone call you had with your mom?
That was spoozy.
It's not what you think.
So, you're not...
going on a trip with a guy, abandoning Alex?
Okay, yes, it's what you think.
But I'm not abandoning Alex, he's abandoning me.
He's going to college
with no gap year, no Europe.
He thinks we'll stay together, but I know how this goes.
And he'll move on.
So you're moving on first.
Are you gonna tell him?
Mm-mm.
Because I have to tell him.
Otherwise you'll throw a grenade through my window?
Okay, that wasn't the point of the story.
Hey. You and Alex had a really nice relationship.
Maybe it needs to come to an end.
But it is always better when things end well.
Jesse in a monastery?
Please tell me they're making him wear the robes.
Yeah, well, he hadn't packed a bag, so maybe.
I mean, look, I think he would look good in the robes.
Jedi-esque. Please.
More like "Sun City walk to the bottom
of the driveway for the paper"-esque.
I don't understand any of your references,
but I like them.
You'll get there, friend.
Okay, so...
it does seem like your theory that Captain Dennison's murder
was about the fire in Niger is spot-on.
The question is whether you're right
about Baxter, or if other members
of the Black Diamonds are involved.
We need to separate them, see if anyone's conscience
is stronger than their Marine fidelity.
That's a good idea.
Hey, Ernie?
Photoshop a picture of Jesse in the robes?
No.
See if I can find any secrets the unit might be keeping?
Yes.
The abbot said it was okay if you stayed.
Thanks.
What did he say about the intruder?
I may or may not have been as forthright about that.
Lying to the abbot.
I don't know my bylaws, but...
I'm pretty sure that goes against monk code.
I follow the rituals, I try hard to keep my focus on God.
But I am a work in progress.
Why'd you end up here?
The outside world was, uh...
too loud for me.
Are you hoping to shut it out?
Yeah, something like that.
You know, Brother...
...some things refuse to be shut out.
Whatever happened in Niger...
you can ritual and pray all you want, but...
it's not gonna make it go away.
You're right.
And some of the things that I've seen
can't be unseen.
Can't be undone.
Like what Master Sergeant Baxter did to those people in Niger.
I should go to chapel.
"If we confess
"our sins...
"He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins
and cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
You still remember the scriptures
you memorized in Catholic school.
Well, mostly I remember that the nuns,
they didn't like me very much.
If the nuns liked you too much,
you might've rebelled against God and not them.
You saying that was strategy?
I'm saying it worked.
You still remember verses.
Many drift away and they forget it all.
Nah.
I think it's more just habit than belief
at this point.
I think that's the story you tell yourself.
Yeah. Maybe.
What story do you tell yourself
to make what happened to Captain Dennison seem okay?
Special Agent in Charge Jane Tennant.
You've met Agent Holman.
Heard you were making the rounds.
May we come in?
Military quarters. Do you even have to ask?
No, just...
being polite.
We're talking to everybody in the unit.
And, uh, we heard you stayed home sick.
Oh, yeah, I'm fine.
Last night was a little rocky, though.
Bad fish maybe.
You mind putting that down?
Master Sergeant Baxter.
Put the knife down or we will consider it
an overt threat against us.
You're wound pretty tight, aren't you, Jane Tennant?
On this island,
I think you'll find that people know
I am wound just right.
Some of the guys-- they mentioned a dispute
about the fire in Niger that got you
that Navy and Marine Corps medal.
You mean Kane?
Why would you think that?
Dennison told me he was going up to see him.
Someplace up north. He was acting all holy.
Wonder why he didn't mention that before.
Kane isn't what he seems.
You didn't answer Agent Holman's question.
They made it look like he left voluntarily.
All right? But he was a danger to the unit.
He couldn't handle being in country.
And I didn't tell you because Dennison decided a long time ago
that he was gonna cover for the guy.
It was his choice.
Now it seems like you guys are looking for
somebody else to blame.
No.
No, just the truth.
Is that yours?
Yeah.
Mind if we take it?
Do you really think that I'd keep the bat
if I beat someone to death with it?
Not sure.
But I'm gonna take it anyway.
Okay.
Hey. You were looking for me? Yeah.
Half hour ago. What took you so long?
This is both far from the office
and underground.
And the couple people I asked for directions
were confused about where you were.
Or who you were.
That's the way I like it.
Anyway...
I took all the information you had in your files
and created a schematic of the fire.
This is obviously the house.
That looks right.
I did a hand-drawn version
when I visited the scene.
Yep, it was excellent.
Thank you.
Except for the complete lack of detail.
Took me forever to find this photo.
An aid worker posted it to a social media account
a year before the building burned down.
That's it there.
What do you see?
Well, the street's on the other side,
so the door's over there.
This is the back and Kane would've been here.
He wasn't near a window.
He couldn't have seen Baxter start the fire.
Who's that?
Corporal Nadiya Grange.
Part of the Cultural Support Team.
She's your witness.
Brother Kane is covering for her.
Hey, Ernie.
Hey. We need to talk about Niger.
Yeah, well, we just got back, so...
I know. We're looking right at you.
Then why are we talking on the phone?
One, two,
three. Ah.
Nadiya Grange is your real witness.
Brother Kane is just her mouthpiece.
Heading back to K-Bay to pick her up.
Don't bother. I already called.
Nadiya hasn't been seen since yesterday.
So maybe getting rid of the real witness
is why Baxter called in sick.
According to the Black Diamonds, Nadiya headed off base alone.
Said she needed to go to the drugstore
for some personal items.
Bet that shut down follow-up questions.
How'd she travel?
Got a car out of the motor pool, it's still missing.
The motor pool.
Dennison rented a car to go to the monastery and the beach,
but we came up empty on ride services
and rental cars for our killer.
Maybe...
Baxter took a car from base. Yes.
Go see if you can find out which one
and if there are any forensics that tie to our dead captain.
Okay.
Kane.
Where's Nadiya?
Excuse me? You're hiding her.
She was the one that took off into the woods last night.
How did...? We don't have time for this.
We know you didn't see Master Sergeant Baxter set the fire,
Nadiya did.
I can't talk...
She's not on base.
I set her up at an outbuilding on the edge of the property.
Show me.
Corporal?
Yes, sir?
I'm with NCIS.
Sergeant Westmore, CID.
We need you to get us some motor logs.
Yes, Sergeant.
What do you need?
Two days ago, looking for any car
Master Sergeant Baxter signed out.
I'll need to talk to my CO. No, you don't.
We're investigating a murder
and we are requesting evidence related to it.
We don't need anyone's permission.
I just think it would be a...
You will not go shields up on me, Marine.
I'm not an outsider.
I'm a Marine CID with a job to do.
Just like you.
Master Sergeant Baxter...
Is an ass, Corporal. We know.
Look, there is not gonna be any blowback to you.
Or your CO, not if we all do our jobs.
I'll be right back.
Double-time it, Corporal.
I love being a Marine.
I get why you and Nadiya would be targets, but why Dennison?
Nadiya was too afraid of Baxter to come forward
with what she saw in Niger.
So I said that I would.
But when Dennison looked into it,
no one would corroborate my story.
Because they didn't know or because they were afraid of him?
Maybe both.
So I called CID and I resigned.
A few months later, I came here.
Why wasn't that the end of the story?
Me saying that Baxter was dirty
created a new prism for Dennison.
Everything that Baxter said or did
seemed wrong, so Dennison
started to believe my story.
Nadiya's story was true.
Ah, so he was gonna reopen the CID investigation.
Yeah.
But he wanted to talk to Baxter first.
Give him a chance to come clean.
I told Dennison about Nadiya.
And as soon as his car drove away,
I realized that I put her in danger.
So I called her and I told her to come hide.
I should've stopped Dennison from confronting him.
All right, well, let's get Nadiya safely back to Pearl.
After that...
Baxter will get what's coming to him.
We processed the car Baxter signed out,
we found trace evidence.
Blood and wood consistent with the baseball bat.
Forensics says the bat we gave them was clean.
No way to prove it was the murder weapon.
The chain of evidence to the motor pool vehicle
is a problem, too.
Other people used it after Baxter.
Still, if the blood in the car
is a DNA match to Captain Dennison,
that, along with Nadiya's testimony,
is a strong circumstantial case.
Solid enough for JAG.
I'm headed to the monastery to help out Jesse.
You two go pick up Baxter.
Copy.
Nadiya.
Get down!
Is there a window in that shack?
Yeah, on the other side.
All right, I'll cover you.
Get in the door, get Nadiya back to the monastery.
You'll run out of bullets, I promise you.
Baxter won't.
He will kill you.
I'll give you as much time as I can.
Let me cover you. No.
This is my job. Go.
But this is my fault.
I ran away. I cannot run away again.
Okay.
Let's try something else then.
Drop your weapon!
Get her back to the monastery.
I'll get the bastard. I'm going with you.
Let's go, Brother. Man's got a job to do.
God watch over you, Jesse.
Damn it.
Nope.
Double nope.
Ah...
I was scared.
I saw how he treated people in country
and I had no expectation he would treat me differently.
What Brother Kane told me.
Is that what you saw? Yes.
Through the window, I saw Master Sergeant Baxter
pour cooking fuel over the furniture
and fabric in the house and set it on fire.
Was anyone from the unit with him?
No.
He told us to cover the exits.
And keep the other villagers from approaching.
Soon as I realized what was happening, I yelled "Fire."
But when I got to the door,
he was coming out with two children.
And directing other Marines to come back to get the others.
They got everyone, except...
The young man who had given him
a hard time and his mother.
Baxter claimed the kid set the blaze
as soon as he stepped in the house.
I'm so sorry, Kane.
I put you in a terrible position.
And now Captain Dennison is dead because of me.
People are dead because
of Sergeant Baxter.
Thanks to the three of you,
he's gonna go to trial
and be put in prison for the rest of his life.
That doesn't do any of them any good.
No.
But it's what we can do now.
Did your hearing check out okay?
After that grenade? What's that?
I'm kidding, it's fine.
I just wanted to say thank you.
If it wasn't for you and your team,
I might've spent the rest of my life
trying to make penance for... for running away.
And it never would have been enough.
I'm not so sure. I think eventually,
like those honeybees of yours,
you would have found your way home.
Yeah, maybe.
And I'm gonna pray for you, Jesse.
That you find the peace that you crave as well.
Thanks.
But, uh, I'm fine.
Mm-mm.
There's a darkness behind your smile.
I see it.
And I'm pretty sure others see it as well.
I don't know why it's there, but...
I bet you do.
Take care.
St. Benedict.
You got to go with your mascot.
May I?
Grant Jesse, Lord God, a vision of the world
where peace is built on justice, and justice on love.
Give Jesse the courage to work toward this vision for himself
and all of Your creation.
Amen.
So...
where you off to next?
Back to Gitmo, then who knows?
Okay.
Well, we would be happy to have you
back at Pearl anytime.
Hey.
Wait.
You almost forgot these.
That's okay.
I always like to leave a pair of combat boots
wherever I solve a case.
Really?
No.
Hey. You're vertical.
Feeling better. Sort of.
No Cassandra?
We broke up.
Do you want to talk about it?
Not really. Okay.
You've had a rough couple days.
She said we're on different journeys.
"Journeys." I don't want to harvest pineapples in Thailand.
You know? A-And once I'm in college,
the time difference alone...
Yeah. Just doesn't make sense.
Or make it easier.
So, college, huh?
Don't make it weird, Mom. Okay.
The investigators pressed Truman
for information about Darla's disappearance.
But... to this day Truman maintains
his innocence in Darla's disappearance.
So, how much of a time difference are we talking?
