Yeah, Mattis arrived at the airport under an alias.

10
00:00:31,197 --> 00:00:33,133
Homeland caught him on surveillance.

11
00:00:33,199 --> 00:00:34,000
He took a cab

12
00:00:34,067 --> 00:00:36,136
and was dropped off here ten minutes ago.

13
00:00:36,202 --> 00:00:38,138
So he's close. Yeah, and dangerous.

14
00:00:38,204 --> 00:00:40,140
All right, we got to get a visual on him

15
00:00:40,206 --> 00:00:42,142
and follow him. Is Pride coming?

16
00:00:42,208 --> 00:00:42,942
He's coordinating with Homeland.

17
00:00:43,009 --> 00:00:45,145

107
00:04:45,451 --> 00:04:46,486

143

00:06:17,610 --> 00:06:19,545
Well, what about surveillance?

149
00:06:19,612 --> 00:06:21,547
None of that, either. No cameras.

150
00:06:21,614 --> 00:06:23,549
All we have is Sebastian's story.

151
00:06:23,616 --> 00:06:26,519

159

It's gonna take time to process.

160
00:06:48,608 --> 00:06:50,409
Okay, I'll make that tea.

161
00:06:52,612 --> 00:06:55,548
I just... You know, all that-that FLETC training

162
00:06:55,615 --> 00:06:57,550
and the manuals and the target practice...

163
00:06:57,617 --> 00:07:00,520
I had no idea that it would, it would feel like this.

164
00:07:00,586 --> 00:07:02,588
How could you have?

165
00:07:02,655 --> 00:07:05,591
Training isn't real.

166
00:07:05,658 --> 00:07:06,592
It doesn't take into account

167
00:07:06,659 --> 00:07:08,594
adrenaline or fear

168
00:07:08,661 --> 00:07:09,562
or a dozen other variables.

169
00:07:09,629 --> 00:07:11,597

170
00:07:11,664 --> 00:07:13,599
to take action when you need to.

171
00:07:13,666 --> 00:07:15,601
See, that's what I keep wondering.

172
00:07:15,668 --> 00:07:17,603
You know, did I need to?

173
00:07:17,670 --> 00:07:19,605
Or am I just another one of those cops

174
00:07:19,672 --> 00:07:22,608
that you see on the news, who-who overreacted

175
00:07:22,675 --> 00:07:23,409
and made the wrong call?

176
00:07:23,476 --> 00:07:25,611
You defended yourself, Sebastian.

177
00:07:25,678 --> 00:07:26,612
End of story.

178
00:07:26,679 --> 00:07:28,614
(sighs)

179
00:07:28,681 --> 00:07:30,616
I guess.

180
00:07:30,683 --> 00:07:32,585
Look...

181
00:07:32,652 --> 00:07:35,588
it's gonna take time to cope with these feelings.

182
00:07:35,655 --> 00:07:38,591
It... it won't happen this morning.

183
00:07:38,658 --> 00:07:40,593
(Sebastian sighs)

184
00:07:40,660 --> 00:07:44,597
Maybe you need a little distraction.

185
00:07:44,664 --> 00:07:46,465
Watch a movie or play a video game.

186
00:07:49,669 --> 00:07:50,603
Yeah, maybe you're right.

187
00:07:50,670 --> 00:07:52,605
Good.

188
00:07:52,672 --> 00:07:54,607
(sighs)

189
00:07:54,674 --> 00:07:57,610
Details of the incident are forthcoming,

190
00:07:57,677 --> 00:07:59,612
but we can confirm that a man was shot and killed

191
00:07:59,679 --> 00:08:02,481
last night by a federal agent.

192
00:08:02,548 --> 00:08:04,650
It's being said that the victim was a tourist.

193
00:08:04,717 --> 00:08:06,652
I cannot confirm that information yet.

194
00:08:06,719 --> 00:08:08,654
However, as acting mayor,

195
00:08:08,721 --> 00:08:10,656
my promise to the citizens of New Orleans

196
00:08:10,723 --> 00:08:13,526
is that the truth of what happened here will come out.

197
00:08:17,730 --> 00:08:20,666
PRIDE: NOPD had no luck finding the gun Sebastian saw.

198
00:08:20,733 --> 00:08:22,668
I'm hoping that you all did better.

199
00:08:22,735 --> 00:08:24,670
Well, we were out there all morning.

200
00:08:24,737 --> 00:08:26,672
Didn't find a gun or any evidence there ever was a gun.

201
00:08:26,739 --> 00:08:27,540
Interviewed dozens of witnesses.

202
00:08:27,607 --> 00:08:29,675
Plenty saw Sebastian chasing Mattis.

203
00:08:29,742 --> 00:08:31,677
No one saw the shooting, let alone Dawson with a gun.

204
00:08:31,744 --> 00:08:33,679
But they all agree on one thing.

205
00:08:33,746 --> 00:08:34,679
They heard two shots out there.

206
00:08:34,746 --> 00:08:35,681
That's all.

207
00:08:35,748 --> 00:08:37,683
Number of times Sebastian fired.

208
00:08:37,750 --> 00:08:39,652
SONJA: Hey, we're doing the best we can right now.

209
00:08:39,719 --> 00:08:40,653
If there is a gun,

210
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:41,520
we'll find it.

211
00:08:41,587 --> 00:08:43,655
We all know how exacting Sebastian is.

212
00:08:43,722 --> 00:08:46,659
He says he saw a gun, no ifs about it.

213
00:08:46,726 --> 00:08:47,593
It was there.

214
00:08:47,660 --> 00:08:50,663
We need to go back out to the crime scene

215
00:08:50,730 --> 00:08:51,464
and reinterview the witnesses.

216
00:08:51,530 --> 00:08:53,666
All right, we can do that, but...

217
00:08:53,733 --> 00:08:55,668
Clock is ticking, okay?

218
00:08:55,735 --> 00:08:58,671
High-profile shooting involving a federal agent.

219
00:08:58,738 --> 00:09:00,673
We've all seen how the media plays this out.

220
00:09:00,740 --> 00:09:02,541
Conclusions are gonna get jumped to real soon

221
00:09:02,608 --> 00:09:05,544
if we don't find something to back up Sebastian's story.

222
00:09:05,611 --> 00:09:06,412
Okay, but there's two dozen cops out there.

223
00:09:06,479 --> 00:09:08,547
All due respect, you go out there now,

224
00:09:08,614 --> 00:09:09,548
you're only gonna get in the way.

225
00:09:09,615 --> 00:09:10,416
SONJA: We got other problems,

226
00:09:10,483 --> 00:09:12,718
like a hit man that's still at large

227
00:09:12,785 --> 00:09:13,586
and a trail that's gone cold.

228
00:09:17,790 --> 00:09:19,725
All right. All right, what do we know about Mattis?

229
00:09:19,792 --> 00:09:22,728
He's wanted in seven different countries

230
00:09:22,795 --> 00:09:23,729
for a dozen assassinations.

231
00:09:23,796 --> 00:09:24,730
If he's in New Orleans,

232
00:09:24,797 --> 00:09:26,732
he's got a target here.

233
00:09:26,799 --> 00:09:27,533
Any known accomplices?

234
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,735
He travels with a forged passport,

235
00:09:29,802 --> 00:09:31,737
gets his equipment in whatever city he's operating.

236
00:09:31,804 --> 00:09:32,738
He has to have help.

237
00:09:32,805 --> 00:09:33,739
Maybe Dave Dawson.

238
00:09:33,806 --> 00:09:35,741
Dawson's a 37-year-old machinist

239
00:09:35,808 --> 00:09:37,743
out of Fort Worth. No criminal record.

240
00:09:37,810 --> 00:09:39,745
He and his wife were in town on a romantic getaway--

241
00:09:39,812 --> 00:09:41,747
the farthest they've been outside of Texas.

242
00:09:41,814 --> 00:09:44,717
Not exactly international assassin material.

243
00:09:44,784 --> 00:09:46,719
The only thing Dawson and Mattis have in common

244
00:09:46,786 --> 00:09:47,720
is that they were in the same place

245
00:09:47,787 --> 00:09:49,722
at the wrong time last night.

246
00:09:49,789 --> 00:09:51,724
But Dawson pulled a gun on Sebastian

247
00:09:51,791 --> 00:09:52,725
while he was pursuing a wanted fugitive.

248
00:09:52,792 --> 00:09:54,727
Now, may be a coincidence,

249
00:09:54,794 --> 00:09:56,729
but it just feels like there's more to it than that.

250
00:09:56,796 --> 00:09:59,732
And I have a feeling you're too close to the situation.

251
00:09:59,799 --> 00:10:00,733
Isler.

252
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:01,667
What are you doing back in town?

253
00:10:01,734 --> 00:10:03,736
And a pleasant hello to you, too, Percy.

254
00:10:03,803 --> 00:10:04,737
You're here for Sebastian?

255
00:10:04,804 --> 00:10:06,605
Can we have a word?

256
00:10:12,812 --> 00:10:14,747
PRIDE: Hey.

257
00:10:14,814 --> 00:10:17,750
I want to make this as easy as possible on all of us.

258
00:10:17,817 --> 00:10:18,718
All right? Okay.

259
00:10:18,784 --> 00:10:20,720
No games. No funny business.

260
00:10:20,786 --> 00:10:21,721
We go by the book, to the letter,

261
00:10:21,787 --> 00:10:23,723
and we get it over with.

262
00:10:23,789 --> 00:10:26,726
D.C. sends a deputy director to investigate a shooting.

263
00:10:26,792 --> 00:10:28,728
Does that sound "by the book" to you?

264
00:10:28,794 --> 00:10:33,733
'Cause to me i-it sounds like an overreaction.

265
00:10:33,799 --> 00:10:34,734
Dwayne.

266
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:35,801
I'm not a director anymore.

267
00:10:36,802 --> 00:10:39,739
I'm a special agent, just like you.

268
00:10:39,805 --> 00:10:41,741
They demoted you.

269
00:10:41,807 --> 00:10:44,744
After our Russian misadventure

270
00:10:44,810 --> 00:10:46,746
the last time I was down here.

271
00:10:46,812 --> 00:10:48,748
Now, they gave me two options.

272
00:10:48,814 --> 00:10:50,750
Resign or reassign.

273
00:10:50,816 --> 00:10:53,719
And I'm not ready to give up my career, not yet.

274
00:10:53,786 --> 00:10:56,722
I'm sorry for your troubles, Raymond.

275
00:10:56,789 --> 00:11:01,794
But I can't say I'm sorry you're here to work on Sebastian's case

276
00:11:01,861 --> 00:11:03,796
because together we can clear him fast.

277
00:11:03,863 --> 00:11:06,799
Look, you're not listening to me. We're not working together.

278
00:11:06,866 --> 00:11:08,801
I'm here under official capacity

279
00:11:08,868 --> 00:11:11,804
under strict orders: collect evidence

280
00:11:11,871 --> 00:11:13,806
and hold Special Agent Lund accountable.

281
00:11:13,873 --> 00:11:16,809
Well, that won't be a problem 'cause Sebastian acted properly.

282
00:11:16,876 --> 00:11:17,810
Yeah, well, for his sake, I hope you're right.

283
00:11:17,877 --> 00:11:19,812
What do you mean?

284
00:11:19,879 --> 00:11:22,815
That means leave the Dave Dawson shooting to me.

285
00:11:22,882 --> 00:11:25,785
He could be connected to our fugitive hit man.

286
00:11:25,851 --> 00:11:27,787
That's why he pulled a gun on Sebastian.

287
00:11:27,853 --> 00:11:30,856
There's a lot of assumptions in that statement.

288
00:11:32,858 --> 00:11:34,860
There's something you need to see.

289
00:11:37,863 --> 00:11:40,866
(sighs)

290
00:11:47,873 --> 00:11:48,874
SEBASTIAN: Stop! NCIS!

291
00:11:51,877 --> 00:11:53,813
This footage was shot behind Dawson's back.

292
00:11:53,879 --> 00:11:54,814
You can't see a gun here.

293
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:55,815
Play it again.

294
00:11:55,881 --> 00:11:56,816
Slow motion.

295
00:11:56,882 --> 00:11:58,851
(slowed): NCIS!

296
00:12:02,922 --> 00:12:03,856
Play it as many times you want at any speed you want.

297
00:12:03,923 --> 00:12:05,858
You still won't see a gun.

298
00:12:05,925 --> 00:12:06,859
Doesn't mean it's not there.

299
00:12:06,926 --> 00:12:07,860
We got another big problem.

300
00:12:07,927 --> 00:12:09,862
This has been viewed

301
00:12:09,929 --> 00:12:10,863
over 25,000 times already.

302
00:12:10,930 --> 00:12:12,865
It's going viral.

303
00:12:12,932 --> 00:12:15,868
Federal agent shoots an unarmed tourist in the French Quarter.

304
00:12:15,935 --> 00:12:17,870
I don't need to tell you the damage that this footage...

305
00:12:17,937 --> 00:12:18,737
No, you don't.

306
00:12:33,919 --> 00:12:35,855
PRIDE: Did you get some rest? SEBASTIAN: Not really.

307
00:12:35,921 --> 00:12:37,857
You know, there's a lot on my mind,

308
00:12:37,923 --> 00:12:39,859
like what's about to happen in here.

309
00:12:39,925 --> 00:12:41,093
Nothing to worry about.

310
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:42,862
Isler is gonna ask you some questions, you'll answer 'em.

311
00:12:42,928 --> 00:12:43,662
Any advice on how to answer?

312
00:12:43,729 --> 00:12:45,865
Honestly, Sebastian, that's how.

313
00:12:45,931 --> 00:12:47,867
Nice to see you again, Special Agent Lund.

314
00:12:47,933 --> 00:12:48,934
I'm sorry it's under these circumstances.

315
00:12:51,937 --> 00:12:53,939
You're welcome to watch from observation.

316
00:13:00,946 --> 00:13:01,947
You're nervous?

317
00:13:02,014 --> 00:13:03,949
SEBASTIAN: Yeah, I am. I'm sorry.

318
00:13:04,016 --> 00:13:05,918
ISLER: It'd be weird if you weren't.

319
00:13:05,985 --> 00:13:08,921
Now...

320
00:13:08,988 --> 00:13:12,925
in your own words, what happened last night?

321
00:13:12,992 --> 00:13:16,929
Okay, um, it was a surveillance operation

322
00:13:16,996 --> 00:13:18,931
of Hans Mattis in the French Quarter.

323
00:13:18,998 --> 00:13:20,933
Um, the suspect made me and then fled.

324
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:22,935
I chased after him.

325
00:13:23,002 --> 00:13:24,937
Um, when I announced myself as a federal agent...

326
00:13:25,004 --> 00:13:26,939
"Hans Mattis took a shot at you.

327
00:13:27,006 --> 00:13:29,942
You pursued him into an alley where you shot Mr. Dawson."

328
00:13:30,009 --> 00:13:31,944
It's from your official statement, Special Agent Lund.

329
00:13:32,011 --> 00:13:34,947
I want to know what happened.

330
00:13:35,014 --> 00:13:37,816
I... I don't understand.

331
00:13:39,985 --> 00:13:41,921
I remember being in your shoes.

332
00:13:41,987 --> 00:13:45,925
Was fresh out of Quantico, my first pursuit,

333
00:13:45,991 --> 00:13:48,928
chasing the suspect, adrenaline starts pumping,

334
00:13:48,994 --> 00:13:49,828
the bullet starts flying,

335
00:13:49,895 --> 00:13:51,931
and your whole world turns upside down.

336
00:13:51,997 --> 00:13:53,933
Yeah, that sounds about right.

337
00:13:53,999 --> 00:13:56,936
You say that Hans Mattis took a shot at you,

338
00:13:57,002 --> 00:13:58,938
but you don't actually remember seeing that happen, do you?

339
00:13:59,004 --> 00:14:02,007
No. I-I felt the bullet pass by my ear,

340
00:14:02,074 --> 00:14:04,009
but I didn't see Mattis pull the trigger, no.

341
00:14:04,076 --> 00:14:06,011
So, you turned into an alley,

342
00:14:06,078 --> 00:14:07,012
having just barely escaped a bullet to your head,

343
00:14:07,079 --> 00:14:10,015
you say Mr. Dawson was holding a gun on you.

344
00:14:10,082 --> 00:14:11,984
Yeah, he was. You sure?

345
00:14:12,051 --> 00:14:14,987
I am. As sure as you are that Hans Mattis took a shot at you

346
00:14:15,054 --> 00:14:15,988
in the first place?

347
00:14:16,055 --> 00:14:17,990
I mean, I-I know what I saw.

348
00:14:18,057 --> 00:14:21,994
I assume... that you have seen this.

349
00:14:22,061 --> 00:14:24,997
Stop! Freeze!

350
00:14:25,064 --> 00:14:26,999
Yeah, I've seen that.

351
00:14:27,066 --> 00:14:29,001
You don't see the gun, but-but Dawson has it.

352
00:14:29,068 --> 00:14:30,869
See, that's the problem.

353
00:14:34,073 --> 00:14:35,874
I have forensic analysis here.

354
00:14:40,079 --> 00:14:43,015
No GSR, no bullet casing, no slug.

355
00:14:43,082 --> 00:14:45,985
I have two dozen witness statements.

356
00:14:46,051 --> 00:14:48,988
No one saw Dave Dawson with a gun, except you.

357
00:14:49,054 --> 00:14:50,990
You, Sebastian, the one person who shouldn't

358
00:14:51,056 --> 00:14:52,992
be expected to remember this.

359
00:14:53,058 --> 00:14:54,994
I'm telling you, Dawson had a gun.

360
00:14:55,060 --> 00:14:56,996
And the evidence doesn't support that.

361
00:14:57,062 --> 00:14:58,998
From what I see, or more precisely,

362
00:14:59,064 --> 00:15:02,067
what I don't see here, it appears

363
00:15:02,134 --> 00:15:03,068
that no one fired on you.

364
00:15:03,135 --> 00:15:05,070
It's not true.

365
00:15:05,137 --> 00:15:08,073
Are you willing to swear to that under oath in front of a jury?

366
00:15:08,140 --> 00:15:11,076
A jury? Are y... are you bringing me up on charges?

367
00:15:11,143 --> 00:15:14,079
I'm collecting facts. And the facts say

368
00:15:14,146 --> 00:15:15,080
that you shot a man who appears to be unarmed.

369
00:15:15,147 --> 00:15:17,082
And if that holds up,

370
00:15:17,149 --> 00:15:17,883
you will absolutely be brought up on charges.

371
00:15:17,950 --> 00:15:20,052
Nothing anyone can do about that.

372
00:15:20,119 --> 00:15:22,488
Wh... wh-what does that mean?

373
00:15:22,554 --> 00:15:24,490
It means that until this inquiry is resolved,

374
00:15:24,556 --> 00:15:27,493
NCIS has authorized me

375
00:15:27,559 --> 00:15:29,361
to collect your badge.

376
00:15:49,581 --> 00:15:50,516
What the hell was that?

377
00:15:50,582 --> 00:15:52,484
I'm surprised I made it out of the squad room

378
00:15:52,551 --> 00:15:53,485
without you jumping me.

379
00:15:53,552 --> 00:15:54,486
You just ambushed Sebastian.

380
00:15:54,553 --> 00:15:56,488
I was just doing my job.

381
00:15:56,555 --> 00:15:57,489
I got nothing personal against your boy.

382
00:15:57,556 --> 00:16:00,559
That was all kinds of personal.

383
00:16:00,626 --> 00:16:01,460
Lund is green in the field.

384
00:16:01,527 --> 00:16:03,562
He was in a heightened situation, alone,

385
00:16:03,629 --> 00:16:04,496
without backup.

386
00:16:04,563 --> 00:16:07,566
He was scared and he shot an unarmed man.

387
00:16:07,633 --> 00:16:08,567
Now, that's not personal; that's reality.

388
00:16:08,634 --> 00:16:10,569
You need to back off. Why?

389
00:16:10,636 --> 00:16:13,572
Because we worked a few cases together, bent a few rules,

390
00:16:13,639 --> 00:16:15,574
because cops look out for cops, why?

391
00:16:15,641 --> 00:16:16,575
Because Sebastian says Dawson was armed

392
00:16:16,642 --> 00:16:18,577
and I'm gonna prove it.

393
00:16:18,644 --> 00:16:20,579
Pride, no... Pride, Pride.

394
00:16:20,646 --> 00:16:23,582
You're gonna pursue your missing assassin

395
00:16:23,649 --> 00:16:25,551
and you're gonna leave the Dawson shooting alone.

396
00:16:25,617 --> 00:16:27,553
Do you hear me? I know what this is.

397
00:16:27,619 --> 00:16:29,555
You're pissed at me, right? You lost your job.

398
00:16:29,621 --> 00:16:30,356
You think it's my fault. That's fine.

399
00:16:30,422 --> 00:16:31,290
But leave Sebastian out of this.

400
00:16:31,357 --> 00:16:33,559
Hey, hey, I'm not the one that you need

401
00:16:33,625 --> 00:16:34,560
to be worried about here.

402
00:16:34,626 --> 00:16:36,428
What do you mean by that?

403
00:16:37,629 --> 00:16:40,566
That means stay out of my way.

404
00:16:40,632 --> 00:16:43,569
Now, you want to help Lund, you get him a good lawyer.

405
00:16:43,635 --> 00:16:45,571
You stay in your lane

406
00:16:45,637 --> 00:16:47,439
and do not interfere in my investigation.

407
00:16:51,643 --> 00:16:52,544
Where's Sebastian?

408
00:16:52,611 --> 00:16:54,580
He ducked out when you chased after Isler.

409
00:16:54,646 --> 00:16:56,582
Didn't say a word about the interview,

410
00:16:56,648 --> 00:16:57,549
but I'm guessing it didn't go well.

411
00:16:57,616 --> 00:16:59,551
We've been officially warned

412
00:16:59,618 --> 00:17:01,620
off the Dawson investigation.

413
00:17:01,687 --> 00:17:03,622
Wait, so we're supposed to stop trying to clear Sebastian?

414
00:17:03,689 --> 00:17:05,624
No. We'll do it on the QT, right, Pride?

415
00:17:05,691 --> 00:17:07,626
Well, we're not giving up.

416
00:17:07,693 --> 00:17:09,627
We're also not gonna get in the FBI's way,

417
00:17:09,694 --> 00:17:11,630
officially or unofficially.

418
00:17:11,696 --> 00:17:13,632
Well, whatever we're gonna do, we'd better do it fast.

419
00:17:13,699 --> 00:17:14,633
The video of Sebastian shooting

420
00:17:14,700 --> 00:17:17,636
is spreading like wildfire.

421
00:17:17,703 --> 00:17:18,871
The city is gonna start calling for his head.

422
00:17:18,936 --> 00:17:22,641
And if I'm right and Dawson is connected to Hans Mattis...

423
00:17:22,708 --> 00:17:23,642
We find Mattis, we prove the connection.

424
00:17:23,709 --> 00:17:24,643
And exonerate Sebastian.

425
00:17:24,710 --> 00:17:25,644
LASALLE: Finding Mattis

426
00:17:25,711 --> 00:17:27,646
is the problem.

427
00:17:27,713 --> 00:17:28,647
Patton's been going through surveillance cameras

428
00:17:28,714 --> 00:17:30,649
in the Quarter all day, no luck.

429
00:17:30,716 --> 00:17:31,617
That's Mattis' M.O.

430
00:17:31,683 --> 00:17:33,619
Got a well-protected target

431
00:17:33,685 --> 00:17:35,621
impossible to get, Mattis is your guy.

432
00:17:35,687 --> 00:17:36,755
He slips in, he slips out.

433
00:17:36,822 --> 00:17:38,624
I mean, how is it this guy never leaves any evidence?

434
00:17:38,690 --> 00:17:40,626
He's like a ghost.

435
00:17:40,692 --> 00:17:41,627
But he's not a ghost. He's a man.

436
00:17:41,693 --> 00:17:43,629
And every man leaves a trace,

437
00:17:43,695 --> 00:17:44,630
especially when you disrupt his plan.

438
00:17:44,696 --> 00:17:45,431
Give me good news, P.

439
00:17:45,497 --> 00:17:47,633
Surveillance cameras came up nil,

440
00:17:47,699 --> 00:17:49,635
so I dove into the NOPD's

441
00:17:49,701 --> 00:17:50,536
radio chatter after the shooting.

442
00:17:50,602 --> 00:17:52,638
I figured someone might've reported Mattis

443
00:17:52,704 --> 00:17:53,472
fleeing the scene. You got a hit?

444
00:17:53,539 --> 00:17:55,641
Not on Mattis but on a black Camry

445
00:17:55,707 --> 00:17:57,643
that was stolen two blocks from the scene.

446
00:17:57,709 --> 00:17:59,645
What, you think Mattis stole the car?

447
00:17:59,711 --> 00:18:01,513
If that's the case, he'd be halfway to Mexico by now.

448
00:18:01,580 --> 00:18:03,515
No, actually, he's still in New Orleans.

449
00:18:03,582 --> 00:18:05,684
NOPD's license plate reader just tagged

450
00:18:05,751 --> 00:18:07,686
the black Camry in the Marigny.

451
00:18:07,753 --> 00:18:09,688
Plate doesn't match make or model.

452
00:18:09,755 --> 00:18:11,690
Got to be Mattis. Steals a car and changes

453
00:18:11,757 --> 00:18:13,692
the plates to a different one to cover his tracks.

454
00:18:13,759 --> 00:18:15,694
If he stuck around knowing we're chasing him,

455
00:18:15,761 --> 00:18:17,696
he could be staying to complete his mission.

456
00:18:17,763 --> 00:18:18,697
Then we got to stop him from pulling that trigger.

457
00:18:18,764 --> 00:18:20,699
Where's the car now, Patton?

458
00:18:20,766 --> 00:18:22,568
On Esplanade. Let's roll.

459
00:18:28,774 --> 00:18:30,709
MAN: Yo, check it out.

460
00:18:30,776 --> 00:18:31,710
It's NCIS.

461
00:18:31,777 --> 00:18:34,713
What y'all doing here?

462
00:18:34,780 --> 00:18:36,715
Sir, gonna have to ask you to move on.

463
00:18:36,782 --> 00:18:37,549
No way.

464
00:18:37,616 --> 00:18:39,685
Listen, we're on official business,

465
00:18:39,751 --> 00:18:40,686
so we'll need you to leave.

466
00:18:40,752 --> 00:18:42,688
MAN: Or what?

467
00:18:42,754 --> 00:18:43,622
You gonna shoot me?

468
00:18:43,689 --> 00:18:45,691
Come on, everybody, get your phones out.

469
00:18:45,757 --> 00:18:47,693
Gregorio, forget about it. Help us out with the car.

470
00:18:47,759 --> 00:18:48,694
We're not gonna forget about what's going on.

471
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:50,696
Everyone needs to see this.

472
00:18:50,762 --> 00:18:52,698
Car's engine is still warm.

473
00:18:52,764 --> 00:18:53,866
All right, search the area. He's got to be around here somewhere.

474
00:18:53,932 --> 00:18:55,701
Yeah, it's gonna be a problem with our little fan club

475
00:18:55,767 --> 00:18:57,703
over here. MAN: Come on, man, take your phone out.

476
00:18:57,769 --> 00:18:58,737
They're up to something.

477
00:18:58,804 --> 00:19:01,573
All right, everyone, you need to disperse now.

478
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:02,574
We're not going anywhere.

479
00:19:02,641 --> 00:19:03,575
This is not a request.

480
00:19:03,642 --> 00:19:05,577
There's a dangerous fugitive

481
00:19:05,644 --> 00:19:07,579
in the area. Yeah. You.

482
00:19:07,646 --> 00:19:11,750
Okay, you made your point. You got your videos.

483
00:19:11,817 --> 00:19:13,752
Please move before anybody gets...

484
00:19:13,819 --> 00:19:15,754
WOMAN: Get out, get out, get out!

485
00:19:15,821 --> 00:19:17,756
(woman screams)

486
00:19:17,823 --> 00:19:20,626
Get out of the way! Out of the way!

487
00:19:24,830 --> 00:19:25,764
Go up.

488
00:19:25,831 --> 00:19:26,765
Come on, come on, come on.

489
00:19:26,832 --> 00:19:28,767
Let's go. Everybody out.

490
00:19:28,834 --> 00:19:31,637
Quick. Shh, shh, shh, quiet.

491
00:19:40,846 --> 00:19:42,781
If Mattis was here, he's gone now.

492
00:19:42,848 --> 00:19:45,751
Yeah, he was here, all right.

493
00:19:45,817 --> 00:19:47,753
King.

494
00:19:47,819 --> 00:19:49,621
Come take a look at this.

495
00:19:54,826 --> 00:19:56,762
PRIDE: Laura Dawson.

496
00:19:56,828 --> 00:19:58,764
Dave Dawson's widow.

497
00:19:58,830 --> 00:19:59,765
GREGORIO: Why would Mattis

498
00:19:59,831 --> 00:20:00,766
kill Dawson's wife?

499
00:20:00,832 --> 00:20:02,768
'Cause Pride's right.

500
00:20:02,834 --> 00:20:03,769
Dawson's connected to Mattis.

501
00:20:03,835 --> 00:20:06,772
Still no idea why.

502
00:20:06,838 --> 00:20:09,641
But we're one step closer to clearing Sebastian's name.

503
00:20:20,819 --> 00:20:23,755
Laura Dawson's throat was slit from ear to ear,

504
00:20:23,822 --> 00:20:24,756
severing her carotid artery.

505
00:20:24,823 --> 00:20:26,758
She bled out instantly.

506
00:20:26,825 --> 00:20:28,760
Gonna assume you didn't find any forensic evidence

507
00:20:28,827 --> 00:20:31,763
pointing to our missing hit man, Mattis?

508
00:20:31,830 --> 00:20:33,765
Aside from expert knife work, no.

509
00:20:33,832 --> 00:20:37,769
Uh, I did, however, find trace fibers

510
00:20:37,836 --> 00:20:39,771
underneath Mrs. Dawson's fingernails,

511
00:20:39,838 --> 00:20:42,774
similar to that of the ones found on her husband's body.

512
00:20:42,841 --> 00:20:43,775
What kind of fibers?

513
00:20:43,842 --> 00:20:45,777
Some sort of industrial plastic,

514
00:20:45,844 --> 00:20:47,779
but without Sebastian,

515
00:20:47,846 --> 00:20:48,647
I had to send the sample

516
00:20:48,714 --> 00:20:50,782
to outside experts for more details.

517
00:20:50,849 --> 00:20:52,751
Be nice to get him back, Dwayne.

518
00:20:52,818 --> 00:20:53,819
Working on it, Loretta.

519
00:20:57,823 --> 00:20:59,758
NOPD cordoned off a mile radius of the crime scene

520
00:20:59,825 --> 00:21:01,827
after we found Mrs. Dawson.

521
00:21:01,893 --> 00:21:02,928
Mattis still managed to escape.

522
00:21:02,995 --> 00:21:04,830
We were on top of them, how did they get away again?

523
00:21:04,896 --> 00:21:05,864
Well, the lookie-loos didn't help.

524
00:21:05,931 --> 00:21:08,834
Mattis could have slipped off into the crowd.

525
00:21:08,900 --> 00:21:11,837
Why would he go out of his way

526
00:21:11,903 --> 00:21:12,704
to kill Dawson's wife?

527
00:21:12,771 --> 00:21:14,840
No idea, but it makes the connection

528
00:21:14,906 --> 00:21:15,674
between Dawson and Mattis.

529
00:21:15,741 --> 00:21:17,843
Yeah, but it's not enough to prove

530
00:21:17,909 --> 00:21:18,844
Sebastian was justified in shooting him.

531
00:21:18,910 --> 00:21:20,846
We need evidence.

532
00:21:20,912 --> 00:21:22,848
Like the gun Sebastian saw Dawson holding.

533
00:21:22,914 --> 00:21:25,817
All right, well, what if Laura took the gun?

534
00:21:25,884 --> 00:21:27,819
In the chaos of the shooting last night?

535
00:21:27,886 --> 00:21:29,821
Well, I was at the scene, King.

536
00:21:29,888 --> 00:21:30,822
I mean, she didn't go within ten feet

537
00:21:30,889 --> 00:21:31,857
of her husband's body.

538
00:21:31,923 --> 00:21:33,291
Yeah, but you weren't there when he went down.

539
00:21:33,358 --> 00:21:35,827
The gun could have skittered in her direction. Even if she took it,

540
00:21:35,894 --> 00:21:37,829
she would have tossed it as soon as she had a chance.

541
00:21:37,896 --> 00:21:38,897
Well, maybe she never had the chance.

542
00:21:38,964 --> 00:21:41,833
She was with the police all day being interviewed.

543
00:21:41,900 --> 00:21:42,834
They wouldn't have gone through her purse.

544
00:21:42,901 --> 00:21:45,837
And then she was escorted back to her hotel

545
00:21:45,904 --> 00:21:46,705
just before we showed up.

546
00:21:46,772 --> 00:21:48,840
Is that why Mattis went to her room?

547
00:21:48,907 --> 00:21:51,843
What's so special about this gun to risk getting caught?

548
00:21:51,910 --> 00:21:52,844
Well, Mattis has a job in town.

549
00:21:52,911 --> 00:21:54,846
That's why he's still here.

550
00:21:54,913 --> 00:21:56,848
And if he killed Laura Dawson for that gun,

551
00:21:56,915 --> 00:21:59,818
it means he might need it to complete his mission.

552
00:21:59,885 --> 00:22:00,886
A lot of ifs and maybes.

553
00:22:00,952 --> 00:22:02,888
So let's prove it.

554
00:22:02,954 --> 00:22:04,890
Somebody out there has a target on their back,

555
00:22:04,956 --> 00:22:07,893
somebody worthy of Mattis' skill set.

556
00:22:07,959 --> 00:22:10,896
Means a VIP. High security.

557
00:22:10,962 --> 00:22:12,898
We'll look for matches. Yeah, I'll dig into the Dawsons again

558
00:22:12,964 --> 00:22:13,699
and see if we can find a connection to Mattis.

559
00:22:13,765 --> 00:22:15,901
No, leave the Dawsons out of it.

560
00:22:15,967 --> 00:22:17,903
Isler made it clear it's not our case.

561
00:22:17,969 --> 00:22:19,905
We'll honor that. Understood?

562
00:22:19,971 --> 00:22:21,907
Yes. All right. Yeah.

563
00:22:21,973 --> 00:22:23,775
Thank you. Miss Loretta.

564
00:22:25,977 --> 00:22:26,845
Something tells me

565
00:22:26,912 --> 00:22:28,914
you're not gonna leave the Dawsons alone.

566
00:22:28,980 --> 00:22:31,883
Sebastian said there was a gun.

567
00:22:31,950 --> 00:22:34,886
But there's no forensic evidence.

568
00:22:34,953 --> 00:22:37,889
Going back to that crime scene.

569
00:22:37,956 --> 00:22:41,893
NOPD and FBI forensic agents were all over that scene.

570
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:43,895
What do you think you're gonna find?

571
00:22:43,962 --> 00:22:45,897
Not me. Sebastian.

572
00:22:45,964 --> 00:22:47,899
He's the one expert who hasn't been all over it

573
00:22:47,966 --> 00:22:49,901
and the only one I trust.

574
00:22:49,968 --> 00:22:52,904
Sebastian's shaken up, Dwayne, and you know that.

575
00:22:52,971 --> 00:22:54,906
And I don't blame him.

576
00:22:54,973 --> 00:22:57,909
There's video of the shooting on loop everywhere he turns.

577
00:22:57,976 --> 00:22:59,911
I know, Loretta. I'm sure he feels

578
00:22:59,978 --> 00:23:01,980
like the entire city's turned against him,

579
00:23:02,047 --> 00:23:03,982
like they just see him as another cop

580
00:23:04,049 --> 00:23:06,952
with an itchy trigger finger...

581
00:23:07,018 --> 00:23:08,954
What?

582
00:23:09,020 --> 00:23:10,822
The city doesn't know him like we do.

583
00:23:12,023 --> 00:23:15,827
Maybe that's something I can help with.

584
00:23:24,035 --> 00:23:26,972
Timing couldn't be worse for a surprise visit, Loretta.

585
00:23:27,038 --> 00:23:27,973
Husband and wife tourists were murdered

586
00:23:28,039 --> 00:23:28,974
within a day of each other.

587
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,976
I need to make a statement.

588
00:23:31,042 --> 00:23:32,978
Husband hasn't been ruled a murder yet.

589
00:23:33,044 --> 00:23:35,847
I'm not so sure they're tourists, so keep that in mind.

590
00:23:41,019 --> 00:23:43,955
You've come to convince me that Special Agent Lund's

591
00:23:44,022 --> 00:23:46,958
not liable for Dave Dawson's killing.

592
00:23:47,025 --> 00:23:48,960
No, that's not my place, Zahra.

593
00:23:49,027 --> 00:23:52,964
I've come to convince you not to prosecute him on television.

594
00:23:53,031 --> 00:23:54,966
You've seen the video?

595
00:23:55,033 --> 00:23:57,969
Your friend shot an unarmed man.

596
00:23:58,036 --> 00:24:01,039
I know what it looks like, but it's not the full story.

597
00:24:01,106 --> 00:24:02,040
It's a familiar one these days.

598
00:24:02,107 --> 00:24:04,042
Dawson was a machinist; his wife, a bookkeeper.

599
00:24:04,109 --> 00:24:06,044
They were on vacation.

600
00:24:06,111 --> 00:24:08,046
Got caught in your friend's crosshairs.

601
00:24:08,113 --> 00:24:09,114
What am I missing?

602
00:24:09,181 --> 00:24:12,017
Laura Dawson wasn't caught in anyone's crosshairs.

603
00:24:12,083 --> 00:24:14,019
She was killed by a dangerous person,

604
00:24:14,085 --> 00:24:17,022
an assassin planning to murder someone else in the city,

605
00:24:17,088 --> 00:24:19,024
the city you're charged to protect.

606
00:24:19,090 --> 00:24:22,027
We think the Dawsons were connected.

607
00:24:22,093 --> 00:24:23,895
Of course, you can prove this?

608
00:24:25,096 --> 00:24:28,033
A lot of people are angry, Loretta.

609
00:24:28,099 --> 00:24:29,000
I'm angry.

610
00:24:29,067 --> 00:24:32,037
You, of all people, should understand that.

611
00:24:32,103 --> 00:24:32,871
I do. There is

612
00:24:32,938 --> 00:24:35,040
a long list of victims like Dawson,

613
00:24:35,106 --> 00:24:37,042
many of them people of color,

614
00:24:37,108 --> 00:24:39,044
who need us to take a stand.

615
00:24:39,110 --> 00:24:40,045
I'm very aware.

616
00:24:40,111 --> 00:24:42,047
But you don't want me to talk

617
00:24:42,113 --> 00:24:43,048
about the erosion of public trust.

618
00:24:43,114 --> 00:24:45,016
No, you want me

619
00:24:45,083 --> 00:24:48,019
to spin a tale about an international assassin.

620
00:24:48,086 --> 00:24:51,022
I want you to stop fanning the flames

621
00:24:51,089 --> 00:24:53,024
until all the facts are in.

622
00:24:53,091 --> 00:24:55,026
Give Sebastian the benefit of the doubt.

623
00:24:55,093 --> 00:24:57,028
Because he's your friend.

624
00:24:57,095 --> 00:24:58,029
You're right about one thing, Loretta.

625
00:24:58,096 --> 00:25:00,031
It's not your place.

626
00:25:00,098 --> 00:25:02,100
You can't come asking for special consideration.

627
00:25:02,167 --> 00:25:04,102
I'm not asking for special consideration. Well, what do you call it, then?

628
00:25:04,169 --> 00:25:07,105
A favor? A debt because you supported me?

629
00:25:07,172 --> 00:25:08,106
I'm not a dealmaker.

630
00:25:08,173 --> 00:25:09,107
That was my predecessor.

631
00:25:09,174 --> 00:25:11,109
And you see where it put him.

632
00:25:11,176 --> 00:25:13,111
All I want

633
00:25:13,178 --> 00:25:15,113
is for you to do the right thing.

634
00:25:15,180 --> 00:25:17,115
Never been a challenge before,

635
00:25:17,182 --> 00:25:19,084
until you started running for mayor.

636
00:25:19,150 --> 00:25:23,088
The right thing's to acknowledge the public's trust,

637
00:25:23,154 --> 00:25:25,090
hold law enforcement accountable.

638
00:25:25,156 --> 00:25:29,094
And if you can't see past your loyalty to your friend,

639
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:30,962
we've got nothing left to discuss.

640
00:25:41,172 --> 00:25:43,108
Is anyone staring?

641
00:25:43,174 --> 00:25:45,110
Yeah. Me.

642
00:25:45,176 --> 00:25:47,112
Get in here already.

643
00:25:47,178 --> 00:25:49,114
I'm sorry. I'm trying not to stand out.

644
00:25:49,180 --> 00:25:53,084
Trying not to stand out kind of makes you stand out, Sebastian.

645
00:25:53,151 --> 00:25:55,086
I mean, Isler took my badge. He told you not to pursue the investigation.

646
00:25:55,153 --> 00:25:57,088
Isler's tied up with Laura Dawson's murder.

647
00:25:57,155 --> 00:26:00,091
I'll worry about him. You just worry

648
00:26:00,158 --> 00:26:02,160
about finding evidence of a gun. Well, hold on, hold on.

649
00:26:02,227 --> 00:26:05,163
FBI's on the cutting edge of forensic technology.

650
00:26:05,230 --> 00:26:07,165
High density metal detectors, sonar imaging.

651
00:26:07,232 --> 00:26:10,168
What if Isler's right and I'm wrong?

652
00:26:10,235 --> 00:26:13,171
Sebastian, I can't be the only one here who believes you.

653
00:26:13,238 --> 00:26:15,040
You got to believe in you, too.

654
00:26:17,242 --> 00:26:20,178
All right? Let's walk the scene.

655
00:26:20,245 --> 00:26:23,181
Not as a participant in a shooting but as a scientist.

656
00:26:23,248 --> 00:26:25,016
We're missing something.

657
00:26:29,220 --> 00:26:30,155
(sniffs)

658
00:26:30,221 --> 00:26:34,159
Okay, so, uh...

659
00:26:34,225 --> 00:26:35,026
I was chasing Mattis.

660
00:26:35,093 --> 00:26:38,029
I came around this blind corner here.

661
00:26:40,231 --> 00:26:42,167
That's when I...

662
00:26:42,233 --> 00:26:46,171
I felt the bullet pass by my ear.

663
00:26:46,237 --> 00:26:47,038
Did you see Mattis shoot?

664
00:26:47,105 --> 00:26:50,175
No, I-I mean, I didn't see anything.

665
00:26:50,241 --> 00:26:53,178
I-I leapt back for cover, here.

666
00:26:53,244 --> 00:26:56,181
And then everything after that was-was pure instinct.

667
00:26:56,247 --> 00:26:57,182
I-I moved to this wall,

668
00:26:57,248 --> 00:27:00,151
here, and then I, uh,

669
00:27:00,218 --> 00:27:02,220
I spun around.

670
00:27:02,287 --> 00:27:04,222
And Dawson was right there,

671
00:27:04,289 --> 00:27:08,093
pointing a gun at me.

672
00:27:09,294 --> 00:27:12,097
You did what you had to do.

673
00:27:13,298 --> 00:27:15,233
If Dawson shot at you,

674
00:27:15,300 --> 00:27:17,235
there has to be a bullet.

675
00:27:17,302 --> 00:27:19,104
Why haven't we found it?

676
00:27:22,307 --> 00:27:24,109
The trajectory of the shot...

677
00:27:26,311 --> 00:27:28,246
...would've had it slamming into this wall, but-but,

678
00:27:28,313 --> 00:27:30,248
even if it ricocheted, it would've left some kind

679
00:27:30,315 --> 00:27:33,218
of a strike mark or GSR, some kind of a...

680
00:27:33,284 --> 00:27:36,221
some kind of a sign.

681
00:27:36,287 --> 00:27:37,088
What is it?

682
00:27:39,290 --> 00:27:40,225
Sebastian.

683
00:27:40,291 --> 00:27:41,192
Of course.

684
00:27:41,259 --> 00:27:43,228
Yeah, we're thinking about this all wrong.

685
00:27:43,294 --> 00:27:45,230
Those-those forensic experts and-and their equipment,

686
00:27:45,296 --> 00:27:48,233
they were looking for a traditional lead slug.

687
00:27:48,299 --> 00:27:52,237
That's why they never found the bullet.

688
00:27:52,303 --> 00:27:55,240
Because it wasn't made of metal.

689
00:27:55,306 --> 00:27:57,108
(chuckles softly)

690
00:27:59,310 --> 00:28:00,245
Glass bullets.

691
00:28:00,311 --> 00:28:02,113
Say again?

692
00:28:02,180 --> 00:28:03,114
I was shot at

693
00:28:03,181 --> 00:28:05,116
with a glass bullet.

694
00:28:05,183 --> 00:28:08,286
Similar idea to what sky marshals use on airplanes

695
00:28:08,353 --> 00:28:09,587
so that they don't pierce the fuselage.

696
00:28:09,654 --> 00:28:12,290
Wouldn't that still leave gunshot residue on Dawson's body?

697
00:28:12,357 --> 00:28:14,292
Well, not if he shot at me with an air-powered gun.

698
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,294
See, these bullets, they're designed to shatter on impact,

699
00:28:16,361 --> 00:28:18,296
but they can be lethal in the hands of the right shooter.

700
00:28:18,363 --> 00:28:19,297
Like Mattis.

701
00:28:19,364 --> 00:28:21,299
Okay.

702
00:28:21,366 --> 00:28:23,301
How did Dawson end up with Mattis' special gun?

703
00:28:23,368 --> 00:28:26,304
Dave Dawson is a machinist, with a workshop

704
00:28:26,371 --> 00:28:28,306
and materials capable of manufacturing

705
00:28:28,373 --> 00:28:30,308
a weapon like we're talking about.

706
00:28:30,375 --> 00:28:31,109
Yeah, actually, we think that he printed it.

707
00:28:31,176 --> 00:28:34,312
From, uh, graphene carbon fiber.

708
00:28:34,379 --> 00:28:37,315
That's the trace that Wade found on the Dawson body.

709
00:28:37,382 --> 00:28:38,249
See, it's stronger than metal,

710
00:28:38,316 --> 00:28:39,284
but it's easy to pass through security.

711
00:28:39,350 --> 00:28:40,318
Perfect for our killer.

712
00:28:40,385 --> 00:28:42,287
Mattis goes to meet the Dawsons in the Quarter

713
00:28:42,353 --> 00:28:43,288
to collect his weapon.

714
00:28:43,354 --> 00:28:45,290
Sebastian gets in the way.

715
00:28:45,356 --> 00:28:48,293
Laura scoops up the gun to protect her husband and herself.

716
00:28:48,359 --> 00:28:50,295
Mattis kills her to tie up loose ends,

717
00:28:50,361 --> 00:28:53,298
then takes the gun to finish the job.

718
00:28:53,364 --> 00:28:55,300
We locate Mattis, we find the weapon.

719
00:28:55,366 --> 00:28:59,304
Right. So, all you guys need to do to clear my name

720
00:28:59,370 --> 00:29:01,172
is to catch an uncatchable assassin

721
00:29:01,239 --> 00:29:04,175
before he uses an undetectable gun

722
00:29:04,242 --> 00:29:06,244
to kill an unidentified target.

723
00:29:08,246 --> 00:29:10,248
Piece of cake.

724
00:29:11,249 --> 00:29:13,218
Let's get to work.

725
00:29:25,430 --> 00:29:26,364
You took Lund back to the scene of a shooting

726
00:29:26,431 --> 00:29:28,366
he's being investigated for?

727
00:29:28,433 --> 00:29:29,367
I know it looks bad...

728
00:29:29,434 --> 00:29:30,201
No, I don't think you do.

729
00:29:30,268 --> 00:29:32,370
Or maybe, maybe you just don't care.

730
00:29:32,437 --> 00:29:35,373
You're operating under a microscope here.

731
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:36,374
Every move you make is being scrutinized.

732
00:29:36,441 --> 00:29:38,376
Dawson was armed,

733
00:29:38,443 --> 00:29:40,378
he shot at Sebastian, and we found evidence.

734
00:29:40,445 --> 00:29:43,381
No, no, no, you found a theory.

735
00:29:43,448 --> 00:29:44,282
Glass bullets and an air-powered gun.

736
00:29:44,349 --> 00:29:46,351
You're gonna need a weapon to prove it.

737
00:29:46,417 --> 00:29:48,353
Mattis killed Laura for that weapon.

738
00:29:48,419 --> 00:29:51,356
Which proves a connection between all of them. Mm.

739
00:29:51,422 --> 00:29:54,359
Dawson crafted a gun so that Mattis... Yeah, so that Mattis

740
00:29:54,425 --> 00:29:55,527
could-could pull off some sort

741
00:29:55,593 --> 00:29:58,363
of high-profile assassination, yes. It fits his M.O.

742
00:29:58,429 --> 00:30:00,365
Explains why he's still in New Orleans.

743
00:30:00,431 --> 00:30:02,367
Yes, and it conveniently clears Sebastian of any wrongdoing.

744
00:30:02,433 --> 00:30:05,370
You can accuse me of a lot of things, Raymond.

745
00:30:05,436 --> 00:30:08,373
I bend the rules, I improvise, I go my own way. (chuckles): Yeah.

746
00:30:08,439 --> 00:30:11,376
But I would never lie to protect Sebastian.

747
00:30:11,442 --> 00:30:13,378
If I thought he wasn't justified,

748
00:30:13,444 --> 00:30:16,381
I would've taken his badge myself.

749
00:30:16,447 --> 00:30:18,383
Mattis has the gun.

750
00:30:18,449 --> 00:30:19,350
He intends to use it.

751
00:30:19,417 --> 00:30:21,352
Help us stop him.

752
00:30:21,419 --> 00:30:23,354
Save two lives

753
00:30:23,421 --> 00:30:25,356
and take down an internationally wanted killer.

754
00:30:25,423 --> 00:30:26,424
We can both get a win here.

755
00:30:29,427 --> 00:30:32,430
Clearly, you're about to ask me for something.

756
00:30:34,432 --> 00:30:39,370
My team's been working nonstop to locate Mattis' target.

757
00:30:39,437 --> 00:30:41,372
Scoured every piece of chatter coming in and out of the area.

758
00:30:41,439 --> 00:30:44,375
No high-value VIPs deserving of a Mattis hit.

759
00:30:44,442 --> 00:30:46,377
At least none that we know of.

760
00:30:46,444 --> 00:30:48,379
Well, if you think I know, I don't.

761
00:30:48,446 --> 00:30:49,380
But you can find out.

762
00:30:49,447 --> 00:30:51,382
Deputy director of the FBI

763
00:30:51,449 --> 00:30:54,352
has access to intel that I don't have.

764
00:30:54,419 --> 00:30:55,353
I'm not a deputy director anymore,

765
00:30:55,420 --> 00:30:57,355
just a field agent like you.

766
00:30:57,422 --> 00:30:59,357
Who can access the FBI database.

767
00:30:59,424 --> 00:31:02,427
I know it's a big ask... It's an impossible ask.

768
00:31:02,493 --> 00:31:04,429
Look, even if I wanted to, my clearance has been revoked.

769
00:31:04,495 --> 00:31:05,597
You're a political animal, Raymond.

770
00:31:05,663 --> 00:31:08,433
You spent your entire career cultivating relationships.

771
00:31:08,499 --> 00:31:11,436
You have friends. Yeah, which I intend to keep.

772
00:31:11,502 --> 00:31:13,438
Unlike you, I still have a chance of saving my career.

773
00:31:13,504 --> 00:31:15,440
You keep saying things like that.

774
00:31:15,506 --> 00:31:17,442
Unlock the door, Pride.

775
00:31:17,508 --> 00:31:19,444
You know something about my career that I don't?

776
00:31:19,510 --> 00:31:21,446
All I know is that this conversation is over.

777
00:31:21,512 --> 00:31:22,447
Now, unlock the damn door.

778
00:31:22,513 --> 00:31:25,450
We're not done. This isn't happening, Pride.

779
00:31:25,516 --> 00:31:27,418
I'm not calling in a favor to save your agent's ass.

780
00:31:27,485 --> 00:31:29,420
You have to. Why's that?

781
00:31:29,487 --> 00:31:31,422
Because it won't just save Sebastian.

782
00:31:31,489 --> 00:31:32,423
It'll save Mattis' target, too.

783
00:31:32,490 --> 00:31:35,426
And quite frankly, Raymond,

784
00:31:35,493 --> 00:31:37,495
it's the right thing to do.

785
00:31:40,498 --> 00:31:43,434
All right. Back in business.

786
00:31:43,501 --> 00:31:45,436
Got us an I.D. on Mattis' target.

787
00:31:45,503 --> 00:31:46,437
How'd you come by that, King?

788
00:31:46,504 --> 00:31:48,506
Friends in high places.

789
00:31:49,507 --> 00:31:51,442
GREGORIO: Colonel Rafiq Kassar.

790
00:31:51,509 --> 00:31:52,310
Who is that?

791
00:31:52,377 --> 00:31:53,444
Former Syrian intelligence commander.

792
00:31:53,511 --> 00:31:54,445
He cut a deal with the U.S.

793
00:31:54,512 --> 00:31:56,447
PRIDE: CIA's bringing him

794
00:31:56,514 --> 00:31:58,449
to a black site at a nearby base for questioning.

795
00:31:58,516 --> 00:31:59,417
Former bosses must've hired Mattis

796
00:31:59,484 --> 00:32:01,486
to take him out before he talks.

797
00:32:01,552 --> 00:32:03,488
Yeah, where's the colonel now?

798
00:32:03,554 --> 00:32:05,490
On a CIA charter inbound for Louis Armstrong International.

799
00:32:05,556 --> 00:32:07,492
Landing in 30 minutes. We need to get to the airport

800
00:32:07,558 --> 00:32:08,493
and take Mattis down.

801
00:32:08,559 --> 00:32:09,494
Wait, what-- hold on.

802
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:11,496
That's-that's too risky.

803
00:32:11,562 --> 00:32:12,730
Just contact the pilot, get him to divert.

804
00:32:12,797 --> 00:32:15,500
No good. Plane's on a closed circuit communications blackout.

805
00:32:15,566 --> 00:32:17,502
Then, I don't know, h-hack their communications.

806
00:32:17,568 --> 00:32:19,504
I already tried. It didn't work.

807
00:32:19,570 --> 00:32:21,506
This is our chance to find the gun and clear you.

808
00:32:21,572 --> 00:32:23,508
I know. It's...

809
00:32:23,574 --> 00:32:24,509
I was thinking about it, all right?

810
00:32:24,575 --> 00:32:26,511
And-and if one of you guys

811
00:32:26,577 --> 00:32:28,513
gets hurt trying to get my badge back...

812
00:32:28,579 --> 00:32:29,514
Sebastian, appreciate the sentiment,

813
00:32:29,580 --> 00:32:30,515
but if we don't stop Mattis now,

814
00:32:30,581 --> 00:32:32,483
who knows how much more blood

815
00:32:32,550 --> 00:32:34,552
he'll spill? Let's go.

816
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:44,562
(security wand beeping)

817
00:32:54,572 --> 00:32:56,507
SONJA:  Air traffic control just cleared

818
00:32:56,574 --> 00:32:57,508
a private jet for final approach.

819
00:32:57,575 --> 00:32:59,577
LASALLE: We're still five minutes out.

820
00:33:05,650 --> 00:33:06,417
(tires screech)

821
00:33:11,622 --> 00:33:12,724
Air-powered gun, glass bullets.

822
00:33:12,790 --> 00:33:14,559
Mattis will have to get close to his target.

823
00:33:14,625 --> 00:33:16,427
There, Gulfstream taxiing to a stop.

824
00:33:35,646 --> 00:33:37,582
Any sign of Mattis?

825
00:33:37,648 --> 00:33:39,550
Got him! He's behind the nose!

826
00:33:39,617 --> 00:33:42,553
(gunshot) NCIS! Get him in the car!

827
00:33:42,620 --> 00:33:44,555
(gunshots)

828
00:33:44,622 --> 00:33:45,556
Go, go, go!

829
00:33:45,623 --> 00:33:47,625
(engine revs, tires screeching)

830
00:33:50,628 --> 00:33:51,629
Find him, find him. Go!

831
00:33:58,636 --> 00:33:59,570
What the hell?

832
00:33:59,637 --> 00:34:01,639
Where did he go? Hey.

833
00:34:01,706 --> 00:34:03,508
Check it out.

834
00:34:04,709 --> 00:34:06,511
We've lost him.

835
00:34:23,694 --> 00:34:25,630
LASALLE: No sign of this joker, Gregorio.

836
00:34:25,696 --> 00:34:26,563
Copy that, Lasalle.

837
00:34:26,630 --> 00:34:29,634
Mattis must've made it into the terminal.

838
00:34:29,699 --> 00:34:30,534
I'm inside now.

839
00:34:30,601 --> 00:34:32,503
(woman speaking indistinctly over P.A.)

840
00:34:51,688 --> 00:34:53,623
MAN (over P.A.): Bravo three red, Concourse D.

841
00:34:53,690 --> 00:34:56,694
Bravo three red, Concourse D.

842
00:35:03,768 --> 00:35:05,570
GREGORIO: Just spotted Mattis, B Concourse.

843
00:35:10,775 --> 00:35:13,711
Don't move.

844
00:35:13,778 --> 00:35:15,713
That's how you always get away, huh?

845
00:35:15,780 --> 00:35:17,715
It's pretty clever, actually.

846
00:35:17,782 --> 00:35:19,684
After an assassination,

847
00:35:19,750 --> 00:35:21,686
the only people who don't get scrutinized at the scene

848
00:35:21,752 --> 00:35:23,554
are the cops.

849
00:35:25,756 --> 00:35:26,691
Don't.

850
00:35:26,757 --> 00:35:27,558
Put your hands up.

851
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:31,696
Now!

852
00:35:31,762 --> 00:35:33,698
Get down on your knees.

853
00:35:33,764 --> 00:35:36,567
Move, move.

854
00:35:42,773 --> 00:35:44,575
We've been looking for this.

855
00:36:03,828 --> 00:36:05,763
My phone

856
00:36:05,830 --> 00:36:06,764
has been ringing off the hook.

857
00:36:06,831 --> 00:36:10,768
A whole lot of attaboys.

858
00:36:10,835 --> 00:36:11,802
Can't say I'm surprised.

859
00:36:11,869 --> 00:36:14,772
Agencies across the globe extending their thanks

860
00:36:14,839 --> 00:36:18,776
to the man who brought down Hans Mattis.

861
00:36:18,843 --> 00:36:19,777
Ah, apparently, that's the word going around.

862
00:36:19,844 --> 00:36:20,778
Someone out there decided

863
00:36:20,845 --> 00:36:22,647
to give me all the credit.

864
00:36:24,849 --> 00:36:25,783
All I care about

865
00:36:25,850 --> 00:36:28,619
is giving you Mattis' gun.

866
00:36:29,820 --> 00:36:31,756
Sebastian's shooting is cleared.

867
00:36:31,822 --> 00:36:33,758
He's cleared.

868
00:36:33,824 --> 00:36:37,628
And you... can give him this.

869
00:36:38,829 --> 00:36:40,765
Well, that calls for a toast.

870
00:36:40,831 --> 00:36:43,768
No. Thanks. I'm good.

871
00:36:43,834 --> 00:36:46,637
Looks like everybody won.

872
00:36:47,838 --> 00:36:49,774
And you get to go back to your bosses a hero.

873
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,777
You know, you were right about a lot of things here, Pride.

874
00:36:52,843 --> 00:36:54,645
But there was something that you got wrong.

875
00:36:56,847 --> 00:36:59,750
I didn't come out here to investigate Sebastian's shooting

876
00:36:59,817 --> 00:37:00,751
to cover my own ass.

877
00:37:00,818 --> 00:37:02,687
I did it to cover yours.

878
00:37:03,888 --> 00:37:08,826
Someone in D.C. has it out for you.

879
00:37:08,893 --> 00:37:10,828
Someone powerful.

880
00:37:10,895 --> 00:37:12,697
Who expected this whole thing to go the other way.

881
00:37:14,899 --> 00:37:16,834
I'm guessing you don't know who it is.

882
00:37:16,901 --> 00:37:17,969
I don't.

883
00:37:18,035 --> 00:37:19,704
But I was told to end your career, whatever it takes.

884
00:37:22,907 --> 00:37:24,842
That's why you backed me off the Dawson case.

885
00:37:24,909 --> 00:37:27,845
Looking out for me.

886
00:37:27,912 --> 00:37:28,846
Trying to.

887
00:37:28,913 --> 00:37:30,848
Didn't make it easy.

888
00:37:30,915 --> 00:37:31,849
I do what I have to.

889
00:37:31,916 --> 00:37:33,818
(laughs softly)

890
00:37:33,884 --> 00:37:36,821
Well.

891
00:37:36,887 --> 00:37:38,823
You might want to learn to make adjustments.

892
00:37:38,889 --> 00:37:41,826
I'm on your side,

893
00:37:41,892 --> 00:37:43,828
but next time you cross the line,

894
00:37:43,894 --> 00:37:45,696
you won't be able to cross back.

895
00:37:48,899 --> 00:37:49,500
Raymond?

896
00:37:50,901 --> 00:37:53,838
Everyone's going to the bar.

897
00:37:53,904 --> 00:37:55,706
You sure you don't want to give this back to Sebastian yourself?

898
00:37:57,908 --> 00:37:59,710
It'll mean a lot more coming from you.

899
00:38:02,780 --> 00:38:04,782
Watch your back.

No Dwayne?

904
00:38:21,966 --> 00:38:23,901
No, he's grabbing Sebastian. But don't worry,

905
00:38:23,968 --> 00:38:25,903
I minored in mixology at Quantico.

906
00:38:25,970 --> 00:38:26,904
What can I make you?

907
00:38:26,971 --> 00:38:28,906
(both laugh)

908
00:38:28,973 --> 00:38:29,907
I'll have a beer.

909
00:38:29,974 --> 00:38:30,908
And keep 'em coming.

910
00:38:30,975 --> 00:38:32,910
It's been a long couple of days.

911
00:38:32,977 --> 00:38:33,911
Yes, ma'am.

912
00:38:33,978 --> 00:38:35,913
Uh, make that two.

913
00:38:35,980 --> 00:38:36,781
And they're on me.

914
00:38:38,983 --> 00:38:41,886
May I sit with you?

915
00:38:41,952 --> 00:38:42,887

My people tell me Sebastian was cleared of any wrongdoing.

919
00:38:51,962 --> 00:38:55,900
Mm-hmm. And I wanted to look you in the eye and say

920
00:38:55,966 --> 00:38:57,902
you were right.

923
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,776
I also wanted to tell you I wasn't wrong.

924
00:39:05,843 --> 00:39:08,779
I did what I thought was best, Loretta.

925
00:39:08,846 --> 00:39:10,781
I held law enforcement accountable.

926
00:39:10,848 --> 00:39:11,782
And I'd do it again.

927
00:39:11,849 --> 00:39:13,951
You have always been stubborn.

928
00:39:14,018 --> 00:39:14,985
I have.

929
00:39:15,052 --> 00:39:17,955
That's why I need someone like you around me.

930
00:39:18,022 --> 00:39:19,957
Someone to challenge me.

931
00:39:20,024 --> 00:39:21,959
Give me perspective.

932
00:39:22,026 --> 00:39:24,962
Hmm. And I've always been contrary.

933
00:39:25,029 --> 00:39:27,965
More than that, I want you to believe in me

934
00:39:28,032 --> 00:39:30,968
the same way you believe in Sebastian.

935
00:39:31,035 --> 00:39:33,971
What are you asking me, Zahra?

936
00:39:34,038 --> 00:39:36,974
Join my campaign.

937
00:39:37,041 --> 00:39:39,977
Help me run for mayor permanently, help me win.

938
00:39:40,044 --> 00:39:42,980
We could do so much good for the city.

939
00:39:43,047 --> 00:39:44,982
(laughing): I'm very flattered.

940
00:39:45,049 --> 00:39:48,953
That's not a yes.

941
00:39:49,019 --> 00:39:51,956
Okay, yes, but I'm not gonna pull any punches. Right.

942
00:39:52,022 --> 00:39:53,958
If I think you're wrong, I'll tell you to your face.

943
00:39:54,024 --> 00:39:56,961
Okay. And if you go after my family again...

944
00:39:57,027 --> 00:39:58,963
No, I understand now.

945
00:39:59,029 --> 00:40:01,966
I-I won't make you choose between us.

946
00:40:02,032 --> 00:40:03,968
Thank you, brother.

947
00:40:04,034 --> 00:40:04,969
All right, who's ready-ready to get their drink on here?

948
00:40:05,035 --> 00:40:06,971
Hey! Hey!

949
00:40:07,037 --> 00:40:08,973
Pride said first round's on him.

950
00:40:09,039 --> 00:40:10,975
Sebastian's got the second round since we cleared his name.

951
00:40:11,041 --> 00:40:12,042
Where is he, by the way?

952
00:40:12,109 --> 00:40:13,978
Pride's grabbing him, but they're not here yet.

953
00:40:14,044 --> 00:40:14,879
Guys, I think we're gonna have

954
00:40:14,945 --> 00:40:16,981

955
00:40:17,047 --> 00:40:18,983

Hey.

00:40:33,030 --> 00:40:35,966
Hey.

963
00:40:36,033 --> 00:40:37,968
Can I come in?

964
00:40:38,035 --> 00:40:41,038
Oh, yeah. Of course, yeah, come on in.

965
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:44,975
I know everyone's probably waiting for me at the bar.

966
00:40:45,042 --> 00:40:46,977
Obviously, you know,

967
00:40:47,044 --> 00:40:48,979
I'm so grateful for what you guys did, you know?

968
00:40:49,046 --> 00:40:49,980
I'm just, uh...

969
00:40:50,047 --> 00:40:52,983
Not in the mood to celebrate?

970
00:40:53,050 --> 00:40:54,952
Yeah.

971
00:40:55,019 --> 00:40:55,953
That's okay.

972
00:40:56,020 --> 00:40:59,023
You feel like talking?

973
00:41:01,025 --> 00:41:03,027
It's just, no one ever mentioned to me

974
00:41:03,093 --> 00:41:06,030
what it would feel like, you know?

975
00:41:06,096 --> 00:41:09,033
Well, it's not something you can describe...

976
00:41:09,099 --> 00:41:10,901
or plan for.

977
00:41:14,104 --> 00:41:15,906
You took a life.

978
00:41:17,107 --> 00:41:21,045
No matter how justified,

979
00:41:21,111 --> 00:41:24,048
you carry that weight with you forever.

980
00:41:24,114 --> 00:41:27,084
Does it get any lighter?

981
00:41:30,087 --> 00:41:33,023
With time, you learn how to shoulder it.

982
00:41:33,090 --> 00:41:37,094
That much I can promise.

983
00:41:40,097 --> 00:41:44,034
It's a constant reminder of what this work costs,

984
00:41:44,101 --> 00:41:46,103
why it's important.

985
00:41:47,104 --> 00:41:50,040
Yeah, the responsibility we have

986
00:41:50,107 --> 00:41:53,043
carrying a badge and a gun.

987
00:41:53,110 --> 00:41:56,113
Yeah.

988
00:41:57,114 --> 00:41:59,116
Hmm.

989
00:42:02,152 --> 00:42:04,955
Can you carry that weight, Sebastian?

990
00:42:08,158 --> 00:42:10,961
Continue to do the job?
