1
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:06,000
Every body has a story to tell.
2
00:00:06,630 --> 00:00:10,040
Now although this gentleman
died a natural death,
3
00:00:10,050 --> 00:00:13,480
he gave his cadaver to
further your education,
4
00:00:13,490 --> 00:00:17,790
so pay attention to
what he has to tell us.
5
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,610
Now,the brain.
6
00:00:21,250 --> 00:00:25,090
Now,inside,you will see
the delicate structures
7
00:00:25,100 --> 00:00:30,860
and pathways that determine
memories,emotions,
basic motor functions.
8
00:00:30,870 --> 00:00:34,650
In sum,who we are.
9
00:00:34,660 --> 00:00:39,220
Mr.Palmer,would you cradle
the brain while I sever this...
10
00:00:39,230 --> 00:00:43,000
Lieutenant Greer,the four
lobes of the cerebrum?
11
00:00:43,010 --> 00:00:49,300
Um,it's the frontal,the
parietal,occipital and temporal.
12
00:00:51,730 --> 00:00:55,990
The adult human weighs
approximately three pounds.
13
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,670
Feels like a soggy grapefruit.
14
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,210
Yes. Well,uh,pass it around.
15
00:01:01,220 --> 00:01:04,360
Now,don't let its small size fool you.
16
00:01:04,370 --> 00:01:09,340
The cerebral cortex
contains one billion neurons
17
00:01:09,350 --> 00:01:13,040
and one million,billion
connections,or synapses.
18
00:01:13,050 --> 00:01:16,500
If-If you were to count
one synapse per second,
19
00:01:16,510 --> 00:01:20,550
you wouldn't finish counting
for 32 million years.
20
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:24,360
Doctor,is this natural?
21
00:01:29,070 --> 00:01:30,880
Certainly not.
22
00:01:30,890 --> 00:01:32,680
What the hell is that?
23
00:01:32,690 --> 00:01:34,910
This,my dear lieutenant...
24
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:37,980
is murder.

28
00:02:22,260 --> 00:02:23,420
Not bad.
29
00:02:23,430 --> 00:02:26,540
All right,look at this one.
You're going to love this guy.
30
00:02:27,450 --> 00:02:29,990
Yeah,he would not be safe
with me.I would eat him.
31
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,820
He's so adorable. How can
you say no to that face?
32
00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:36,450
Please tell me you're
looking for a man for Ziva.
33
00:02:36,460 --> 00:02:37,800
Not me.
34
00:02:38,350 --> 00:02:40,510
McGoo,is there something
you want to tell me?
35
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,540
Looking at animal rescue sites.
36
00:02:42,550 --> 00:02:44,410
McGee's thinking about getting a puppy.
37
00:02:44,420 --> 00:02:48,070
Puppy's a lot of work-- you
got to feed it,walk it,train it.
38
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,190
Yeah. I'm not 12,all right?
39
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:50,890
I work hard.
40
00:02:50,900 --> 00:02:55,080
I deserve someone who will jump up
all excited when I get home,you know?
41
00:02:55,090 --> 00:02:56,710
Lay on the couch,watch TV.
42
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,730
Maybe lick my face a little bit.
43
00:02:59,640 --> 00:03:01,640
Might be easier getting a girlfriend.
44
00:03:01,650 --> 00:03:04,170
Which might be even easier with a puppy.
45
00:03:06,290 --> 00:03:07,590
Even for you.
46
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,660
I'm not ready to start taking
tips from you on this yet,probie.
47
00:03:10,670 --> 00:03:13,900
Tony,I think it's time
you get back on that horse.
48
00:03:14,380 --> 00:03:15,570
Are you getting a pony?
49
00:03:15,580 --> 00:03:17,170
It's an adage.
50
00:03:17,180 --> 00:03:19,210
I am not famiar with that breed.
51
00:03:19,220 --> 00:03:21,380
Yeah,well,they are quite rare.
52
00:03:21,390 --> 00:03:24,620
Sort of a cross between
a Pegasus and a unicorn.
53
00:03:27,330 --> 00:03:28,470
So,who's the favorite?
54
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,230
The pit bull.
55
00:03:30,660 --> 00:03:32,940
Yeah,that makes sense for you,actually.
56
00:03:32,950 --> 00:03:34,680
Not really for McGee.
57
00:03:34,690 --> 00:03:38,540
He's more of a spaniel kind of guy.
58
00:03:38,550 --> 00:03:40,320
Cocker,maybe?
59
00:03:41,470 --> 00:03:43,550
How about an Australian Shepherd?
60
00:03:45,380 --> 00:03:47,740
They're working dogs.
61
00:03:48,230 --> 00:03:50,150
- Pick it up,DiNozzo.
- On it,boss.
62
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,350
A.F.I.P.Smooth things over.
63
00:03:53,390 --> 00:03:54,730
Please hold.
64
00:03:54,740 --> 00:03:57,940
What did we do to incur the wrath of
the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology?
65
00:03:57,950 --> 00:03:59,910
Ducky kept one of their cadavers.
66
00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:01,530
Ducky stole a cadaver?
67
00:04:01,540 --> 00:04:02,850
I'm sure he had a good reason.
68
00:04:02,860 --> 00:04:04,460
I hope so.
69
00:04:05,890 --> 00:04:07,320
Sit.
70
00:04:09,580 --> 00:04:11,030
Stay.
71
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,210
Roll over.
72
00:04:20,010 --> 00:04:22,570
It's absolutely ridiculous,Jethro.
73
00:04:22,580 --> 00:04:26,200
This man's body should never
have been donated to science.
74
00:04:26,210 --> 00:04:27,470
Too late for a refund.
75
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,140
He was murdered,Jethro,with an
injection of mercury into his brain.
76
00:04:31,150 --> 00:04:32,650
A liquid bullet.
77
00:04:32,660 --> 00:04:36,090
Mr.Palmer is presently
endeavoring to reach the M.E.
78
00:04:36,100 --> 00:04:39,400
who made such a grievous oversight.
79
00:04:39,410 --> 00:04:40,570
Still no answer,Doctor.
80
00:04:40,580 --> 00:04:43,520
Then redial,Mr.Palmer.
81
00:04:43,750 --> 00:04:44,380
Yes.
82
00:04:44,390 --> 00:04:48,440
Unidentified African-American
male,approximately 50 years old,
83
00:04:48,450 --> 00:04:51,390
blood-alcohol level
zero point one-two.
84
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,970
Official cause of death-- asphyxiation
from the deceased's own vomit.
85
00:04:54,980 --> 00:04:56,430
However,here's the kicker.
86
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,730
They elected not to perform an autopsy.
87
00:04:59,740 --> 00:05:02,700
But it would be pretty hard to find a
pinprick hole in the base of a skull.
88
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:07,600
And heavy metals wouldn't show on a tox screen
unless you're looking for them specifically.
89
00:05:07,610 --> 00:05:11,450
Mr.Palmer,do not defend
the inefficiin of others.
90
00:05:11,460 --> 00:05:14,770
I'm not sure you can just
take control of a body,Duck.
91
00:05:14,780 --> 00:05:16,540
Well,someone has to.
92
00:05:16,550 --> 00:05:18,800
I mean,based on preliminary findings,
93
00:05:18,810 --> 00:05:22,260
County Police determined that
he was a nameless drifter.
94
00:05:22,270 --> 00:05:23,620
A John Doe.
95
00:05:23,630 --> 00:05:26,420
Had too much to drink
and died in his sleep.
96
00:05:26,430 --> 00:05:28,770
Some people live their
whole lives off the grid.
97
00:05:28,780 --> 00:05:30,050
No,not our man.
98
00:05:30,060 --> 00:05:33,790
I'd wager that he spent
several years in prison.
99
00:05:34,830 --> 00:05:36,590
Yeah,it's elementary,my dear Jethro.
100
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,110
The proliferation of
scar tissue on his body.
101
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,100
Cigarette-sized burns.
102
00:05:42,110 --> 00:05:44,250
Our John Doe led a violent life.
103
00:05:44,260 --> 00:05:48,660
Yes,well,this long scar on
his left leg is surgical.
104
00:05:48,670 --> 00:05:50,560
However,it healed poorly.
105
00:05:50,570 --> 00:05:55,120
Suggests prison-caliber medical
treatment.Especially postoperati.
106
00:05:55,130 --> 00:05:56,850
And the tattooing.
107
00:05:56,860 --> 00:05:57,890
Pen ink.
108
00:05:57,900 --> 00:05:59,490
Jailhouse style.
109
00:05:59,500 --> 00:06:02,850
Yes. Perhaps we can get Abby to
shed some light on this pattern.
110
00:06:02,860 --> 00:06:05,020
It's her area of expertise.
111
00:06:05,030 --> 00:06:06,250
A John Doe.
112
00:06:06,260 --> 00:06:07,870
I mean,it's ridiculous.
113
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,780
It can't be that difficult
to locate a prison record.
114
00:06:10,790 --> 00:06:14,340
Somebody must actually
care that this man is dead.
115
00:06:14,350 --> 00:06:15,410
Well?
116
00:06:15,850 --> 00:06:17,730
Did you locate the M.E.?
117
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:19,820
No I give up
118
00:06:20,190 --> 00:06:21,980
Therein lies the problem.
119
00:06:21,990 --> 00:06:26,030
People are just not
willing to do the legwork.
120
00:06:28,310 --> 00:06:32,870
He had a murder victim right in front of
him,classroom full of military students.
121
00:06:33,150 --> 00:06:35,450
I think he might be a bit embarrassed.
122
00:06:36,130 --> 00:06:38,660
Excellent detective work.
123
00:06:43,110 --> 00:06:46,900
I hope your opinion of me doesn't waver after
I've given this fellow a piece of my mind.
124
00:06:46,910 --> 00:06:47,480
Never.
125
00:06:47,490 --> 00:06:49,900
I warn you,this might get ugly.
126
00:06:50,850 --> 00:06:53,820
I'm looking for Dr.Jordan Hampton.
127
00:06:54,390 --> 00:06:55,890
You found her.
128
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:02,040
Uh,is there somhing
wrong with your telephone?
129
00:07:02,350 --> 00:07:04,050
Wouldn't know. I don't answer it.
130
00:07:04,060 --> 00:07:06,610
Too many bodies,and not enough time.
131
00:07:07,460 --> 00:07:11,670
Special Agent
Gibbs,uh,Dr.Donald Mallard.NCIS.
132
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:12,750
Pleasure.
133
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,000
I assume you're not here
to check on my phone.
134
00:07:15,010 --> 00:07:17,470
Perhaps you'd have a moment
to discuss a John Doe that
135
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,290
crossed your table nine days ago.
136
00:07:21,230 --> 00:07:22,220
Remember the body?
137
00:07:22,230 --> 00:07:23,760
Yeah,I remember every body.
138
00:07:23,770 --> 00:07:27,840
50-something black male
found DOA on Highland Pier.
139
00:07:27,850 --> 00:07:29,660
Aspirated on his own vomit.
140
00:07:29,670 --> 00:07:33,690
I assume you kept him
the requisite 72 hours.
141
00:07:34,270 --> 00:07:36,000
No one made any inquiries.
142
00:07:36,010 --> 00:07:39,260
Day two of his stay,I caught
a priority triple homicide.
143
00:07:39,270 --> 00:07:41,880
Day four,Anatomy Board picked him up.
144
00:07:41,890 --> 00:07:43,170
You needed the space.
145
00:07:43,180 --> 00:07:44,960
Not a whole lot of elbow room.
146
00:07:44,970 --> 00:07:47,130
Where he went after that,I can't say.
147
00:07:47,140 --> 00:07:51,220
A.F.I.P.,and then,our autopsy suite.
148
00:07:51,230 --> 00:07:53,670
We're investigating
his death as a homicide.
149
00:07:55,150 --> 00:07:56,740
Damn it.
150
00:07:57,100 --> 00:07:58,390
I missed something.
151
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:03,150
An injection of mercury into his brain between
the first vertebra and the occipital bone.
152
00:08:05,620 --> 00:08:09,130
Police tried and failed to I.D.him.
153
00:08:09,140 --> 00:08:12,140
AFIS database and dental record
searores-- they came up empty.
154
00:08:12,150 --> 00:08:12,910
DNA?
155
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:14,760
Now,I'm not sure how it goes
at N.C.I.S.,but around here,
156
00:08:14,770 --> 00:08:16,300
that takes about six months.
157
00:08:16,310 --> 00:08:17,990
Never canvassed the scene.
158
00:08:18,330 --> 00:08:23,000
Sadly,most cops I know-- they prefer to hear,
case closed than look for a reason to open one.
159
00:08:23,010 --> 00:08:26,820
It's not the first time someone's
slipped through the cracth
160
00:08:26,830 --> 00:08:29,160
Well,I'm glad you caught him,Dr.Mallard.
161
00:08:29,780 --> 00:08:31,810
As am I.
162
00:08:37,650 --> 00:08:40,590
Yeah,I hope she recovers
from that tongue-lashing.
163
00:08:44,930 --> 00:08:46,610
What did you find under the pier?
164
00:08:46,620 --> 00:08:49,890
Uh,85 cents,two batteries
and a bottle cap.
165
00:08:49,900 --> 00:08:52,280
- No mercury,no needle.
- Keep looking.
166
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,870
Got to find someone who knew him.
167
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:57,970
Highland Beach in October.
168
00:08:57,980 --> 00:08:59,170
Not much of a tourist draw.
169
00:08:59,180 --> 00:09:01,250
Soft-shell crab season's almost over.
170
00:09:01,260 --> 00:09:02,930
People really like boats that much?
171
00:09:02,940 --> 00:09:05,390
You work for the Navy,DiNozzo.
172
00:09:12,860 --> 00:09:15,110
Maybe we should start
with this waitress.
173
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,560
Eating or asking questions?
174
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,020
If you were hoping for subtle,you
could have lost the guns.
175
00:09:27,030 --> 00:09:28,890
Or at least the hats.
176
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:33,700
Uh,excuse me. I'd just like to show you
a photo,see if,uh,you recognize this man.
177
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,410
Okay. You trying to build suspense?
178
00:09:39,740 --> 00:09:41,260
No.
179
00:09:41,270 --> 00:09:44,700
Um,it's just that the
man in the photo is dead,
180
00:09:44,710 --> 00:09:48,120
and,uh,some people find that shocking.
181
00:09:49,260 --> 00:09:51,170
Thanks for being gentle.
182
00:09:52,210 --> 00:09:54,220
I'm a gentle man.
183
00:09:54,510 --> 00:09:56,600
- ****
- Uh,never seen him.
184
00:10:00,910 --> 00:10:04,180
Uh,so,the waitress,Miss Shannon
O'Hara,remembers our guy.
185
00:10:04,190 --> 00:10:07,140
Never got a name,paid cash,big tipper.
186
00:10:07,150 --> 00:10:08,310
How about your biker gang there?
187
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,410
Oh,they're just passing through.
188
00:10:10,420 --> 00:10:11,210
That's it?
189
00:10:11,220 --> 00:10:13,120
Yethey don't like cops much.
190
00:10:15,740 --> 00:10:17,630
Check out the brunette at the table.
191
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,000
Good eye,boss.
192
00:10:19,010 --> 00:10:21,680
I'll tell you,my radar is just
totally shot. She's smokin'.
193
00:10:21,690 --> 00:10:23,180
That's not what you meant.
194
00:10:23,190 --> 00:10:25,700
You were suggesting that she
seems interested in our presence,
195
00:10:25,710 --> 00:10:28,300
maybe a little too interested,and
that I should question her.
196
00:10:28,310 --> 00:10:30,180
Not a problem
197
00:10:31,180 --> 00:10:33,110
That's a problem.
198
00:10:40,060 --> 00:10:41,220
- Oh,excuse me.
- No,excuse me.
199
00:10:41,230 --> 00:10:43,730
Mind if we ask where you're
going in such a hurry?
200
00:10:44,270 --> 00:10:46,450
What business is it of NCIS?
201
00:10:46,460 --> 00:10:49,160
We're looking for anyone who
might have known this man.
202
00:10:50,300 --> 00:10:51,840
He's dead.
203
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:53,640
You know him?
204
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,230
His name's Marvin
Hinton. He was with me.
205
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,570
And you are? Careful.
206
00:10:58,580 --> 00:11:00,660
I was just reaching for my I.D.
207
00:11:04,660 --> 00:11:07,170
Special Agent Courtney Krieger.
208
00:11:07,180 --> 00:11:09,620
Hinton was working for the FBI.
209
00:11:19,670 --> 00:11:21,480
Hey,Gibbs,need a refill? I'm going.
210
00:11:21,490 --> 00:11:23,570
Well,yeah,Betro.
Thanks,make it a double.
211
00:11:23,580 --> 00:11:25,090
You got it.
212
00:11:27,110 --> 00:11:29,090
Still can't find any
record of Marvin Hinton.
213
00:11:29,100 --> 00:11:29,910
And you won't.
214
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,090
Marvin Hinton doesn't exist anymore.
215
00:11:32,100 --> 00:11:33,240
Anymore?
216
00:11:33,250 --> 00:11:36,260
His cellmates swear Marvin Hinton
served six years at Cumberland,
217
00:11:36,270 --> 00:11:39,220
although any record of it vanished
when he was released last month.
218
00:11:39,230 --> 00:11:42,930
We had to reassemble his history
by hand; it's not complete.
219
00:11:42,940 --> 00:11:46,380
He once went by the
name Frederick LeClair.
220
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,310
Hinton aka LeClair.
221
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:53,090
Bootlegging,false
I.D.s,resisting arrest,theft.
222
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:54,900
The guy's a career felon.
223
00:11:54,910 --> 00:11:56,560
Interstate trafficking,primarily.
224
00:11:56,570 --> 00:11:58,100
How did he show up on your radar?
225
00:11:58,110 --> 00:11:59,610
Was a routine tip.
226
00:11:59,620 --> 00:12:02,110
ed him up offloading
stolen cargo containers.
227
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,530
At which point,you discover a nameless
man whose entire history's been erased.
228
00:12:05,540 --> 00:12:07,170
No fingerprints,no criminal record.
229
00:12:07,180 --> 00:12:09,010
Not even a high school transcript.
230
00:12:09,020 --> 00:12:12,970
That's impossible,you'd need
first-person access PJederal mainframe,
231
00:12:12,980 --> 00:12:14,750
crit ratings,countless
private companies.
232
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,580
That'd be like taking
spit out of the ocean.
233
00:12:16,590 --> 00:12:17,700
How did he do it?
234
00:12:17,710 --> 00:12:18,920
Claimed he didn't.
235
00:12:18,930 --> 00:12:21,990
Said he was contacted by
someone offering the service.
236
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,590
The Eraser.
237
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:24,870
What movie is that from?
238
00:12:25,510 --> 00:12:27,120
I don't know,Flashdance?
239
00:12:27,130 --> 00:12:28,900
Why was Hinton not back in prison?
240
00:12:28,910 --> 00:12:31,400
He was aSmall fish,but the eraser...
241
00:12:31,410 --> 00:12:32,980
he's our real target.
242
00:12:32,990 --> 00:12:36,840
We hoped he would contact Hinton,get
paid off and finish the job.
243
00:12:36,850 --> 00:12:39,270
Provide hinton with a new identity.
244
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:40,290
Exactly.
245
00:12:40,300 --> 00:12:42,060
I waleft to baby-sit.
246
00:12:42,070 --> 00:12:44,090
It was my first field assignment.
247
00:12:44,450 --> 00:12:46,400
Never expected him to be killed.
248
00:12:46,410 --> 00:12:48,700
That is what happens to bait.
249
00:12:49,530 --> 00:12:51,890
Hey,it's not your fault.
250
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,900
So why didn't Hinton skip town
when he had the opportunity?
251
00:12:55,910 --> 00:12:58,430
He was having too good a time on
the government expense account.
252
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,600
But we did have him under 24-hour
monitoring,three-team shifts.
253
00:13:01,610 --> 00:13:02,570
What changed?
254
00:13:02,580 --> 00:13:04,040
The eraser didn't make contact.
255
00:13:04,050 --> 00:13:06,710
They pulled my surveillance
team to chase other leads.
256
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,470
You notify your boss.
257
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,570
We need to know everything you know.
258
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,010
The Bureau set Hinton up here?
259
00:13:15,020 --> 00:13:16,980
To maintain the appearance he was flush.
260
00:13:16,990 --> 00:13:18,630
Anyone else have their own key?
261
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,050
No,we met here weekly so no
one would see us together.
262
00:13:21,060 --> 00:13:23,430
He agreed to play along
in exchange for leniency.
263
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,160
But he knew it could be dangerous.
264
00:13:25,170 --> 00:13:27,320
Wow,forget the puppy,McGee.
265
00:13:27,330 --> 00:13:30,430
A place like this is what you
need to score with the chicks.
266
00:13:36,100 --> 00:13:37,310
Here.
267
00:13:41,870 --> 00:13:44,800
Boss,this could be the
murder weapon: mercury.
268
00:13:56,790 --> 00:13:58,470
Positive for blood.
269
00:14:06,030 --> 00:14:09,370
Ooh,fluids.Lots of them.
270
00:14:09,930 --> 00:14:11,530
No surprise there.
271
00:14:11,930 --> 00:14:13,800
Six years in prison.
272
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,340
The eraser made the initial
contact at the Crab Shack.
273
00:14:18,350 --> 00:14:19,490
Not face to face.
274
00:14:19,500 --> 00:14:20,890
No,slipped him a note.
275
00:14:20,900 --> 00:14:23,970
So,you sent Hinton
back,hoping for another one.
276
00:14:23,980 --> 00:14:27,500
Well,Hinton was supposed toeep a record
of anyone he came in contact with.
277
00:14:27,510 --> 00:14:30,610
I was running background
checks,chasing down his leads.
278
00:14:30,620 --> 00:14:32,270
I was waiting for anything new.
279
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:33,500
You got your wish.
280
00:14:33,510 --> 00:14:35,860
Your first crime scene.
281
00:14:36,290 --> 00:14:38,290
He was killed in that room.
282
00:14:40,190 --> 00:14:41,830
This is why I love you guys.
283
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,660
You bring me hair,you bring
me blood,you bring me fluids.
284
00:14:44,670 --> 00:14:46,040
And mercury.
285
00:14:46,050 --> 00:14:49,130
Predictable,yet constantly surprising.
286
00:14:49,140 --> 00:14:50,240
We try.
287
00:14:50,250 --> 00:14:51,780
Of course,mercury is toxic,
288
00:14:51,790 --> 00:14:54,830
so you shouldn't let kids break
open thermometers and play with it.
289
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaking from personal experience,Abs?
290
00:14:56,650 --> 00:14:57,760
Actually explains a lot.
291
00:14:57,770 --> 00:14:59,600
You want it,but it kills you.
292
00:14:59,610 --> 00:15:01,100
It's like a metaphor.
293
00:15:01,110 --> 00:15:01,960
It's a cigarette.
294
00:15:01,970 --> 00:15:03,830
Or chocolate for dogs.
295
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,510
By the way,I like the dachshund for you.
296
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:06,710
You could name him Mercury.
297
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,160
This mercury,Abby.
298
00:15:08,170 --> 00:15:10,800
Industrial grade,commonly
used in heavy machinery,
299
00:15:10,810 --> 00:15:12,940
although it's fallen out of
favor because of the fear factor.
300
00:15:12,950 --> 00:15:15,140
A lot of it's being dropped on
developing nations like India.
301
00:15:15,150 --> 00:15:18,150
Where exporting/dumping has
become a major revenue stream.
302
00:15:18,170 --> 00:15:21,040
Anyways,um,this is what
killed our painted man.
303
00:15:21,060 --> 00:15:22,810
Speaking of which...
304
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:26,630
I've seen a lot of great skin art
done with a ballpoint pen and a needle.
305
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,370
Like this and this.
306
00:15:29,380 --> 00:15:30,710
Very nice.
307
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,800
But this guy's tattoo,it's a mess.
308
00:15:33,810 --> 00:15:36,830
The symbols are gibberish,the
pattern's haphazard.
309
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:37,900
It's a puzzle.
310
00:15:37,910 --> 00:15:39,280
It puzzles me,Gibbs.
311
00:15:39,290 --> 00:15:40,430
I'm determined to solve it.
312
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:41,620
Hair samples.
313
00:15:41,630 --> 00:15:43,330
Not nearly as interesting.
314
00:15:43,340 --> 00:15:44,850
Sidifferent women.
315
00:15:44,860 --> 00:15:46,520
Hinton had a lot of girlfriends.
316
00:15:46,530 --> 00:15:47,500
One's a bleach blonde.
317
00:15:47,510 --> 00:15:49,120
One's auburn
from a bottle--
318
00:15:49,130 --> 00:15:50,160
if you want to know anything else,
319
00:15:50,170 --> 00:15:52,840
you have to find me
something to match it against.
320
00:15:58,090 --> 00:15:59,610
Delivery for Tony.
321
00:15:59,620 --> 00:16:00,930
I got it,I got it.
322
00:16:00,940 --> 00:16:02,270
Thank you.
323
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:04,860
Hey,how are you?
324
00:16:04,870 --> 00:16:06,280
Good,thanks.
325
00:16:08,230 --> 00:16:09,590
Here you go.
326
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,570
Thank you. Have a good night.
327
00:16:12,270 --> 00:16:14,940
I... Keep the change.
328
00:16:18,710 --> 00:16:20,840
Portobello mushroom,no tomato.
329
00:16:22,620 --> 00:16:25,950
Philly cheese steak,extra
steak,extra cheese.
330
00:16:29,610 --> 00:16:31,210
These are all Hinton's contacts.
331
00:16:31,220 --> 00:16:34,190
Ha,can't help but
notice they're all women.
332
00:16:35,260 --> 00:16:37,750
What made him think
the eraser was a woman?
333
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,560
I don't know that he did.
334
00:16:39,770 --> 00:16:43,710
Well... 'cause you know,you
said he was enjoying himself.
335
00:16:46,030 --> 00:16:47,570
Y-you...
336
00:16:47,580 --> 00:16:50,260
You have mushroom in your teeth.
337
00:16:52,510 --> 00:16:54,210
Where's your bathroom?
338
00:16:54,220 --> 00:16:58,180
Ah,I will show you where it is.
339
00:17:03,460 --> 00:17:06,000
Hey,so I've been
thinking about the murder
340
00:17:06,250 --> 00:17:07,720
Why kill him that way?
341
00:17:08,900 --> 00:17:11,180
I mean,an injection
into the brain--
342
00:17:11,190 --> 00:17:12,950
definitely not the most common method.
343
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:16,030
To find out why,,must ask who.
344
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:17,290
Someone tidy.
345
00:17:17,300 --> 00:17:19,880
Someone who doesn't like messes.
346
00:17:19,890 --> 00:17:20,870
You have a theory?
347
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,550
Someone who needs to be in
constant control of the situation.
348
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:28,260
Someone who does n like to
lose control of their emotions.
349
00:17:30,660 --> 00:17:32,170
Ziva,what are you doing?
350
00:17:33,740 --> 00:17:35,010
Uh,I'm not an expert here,
351
00:17:35,020 --> 00:17:38,210
but I'm pretty sure wh you're doing
now is a violation of the code.
352
00:17:38,220 --> 00:17:40,070
It is not against the law.
353
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:41,780
The woman's code.
354
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,850
McGee,I bet you if we
take a strand of her hair,
355
00:17:44,860 --> 00:17:47,550
it will match the sample
from Hinton's condo.
356
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:48,420
Well,of course it would.
357
00:17:48,430 --> 00:17:50,520
She's already said she
been there every week.
358
00:17:50,530 --> 00:17:52,530
This woman is uptight.
359
00:17:52,890 --> 00:17:55,310
Not even a single strand.
360
00:17:59,630 --> 00:18:01,560
We will have to go to the source.
361
00:18:01,570 --> 00:18:03,020
Ziva,no hair pulling.
362
00:18:03,030 --> 00:18:05,520
She's the only one that
was in contact with Hinton.
363
00:18:05,530 --> 00:18:08,870
It would have been easy for her
to just sweep him under the rug.
364
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:10,370
Motive?
365
00:18:10,380 --> 00:18:11,220
She's ambitious.
366
00:18:11,230 --> 00:18:12,610
He became too much of a complication.
367
00:18:12,620 --> 00:18:17,050
When someone's that uptight,it's only
a matter of time before they... snap.
368
00:18:17,060 --> 00:18:18,440
Okay.
369
00:18:19,180 --> 00:18:20,830
You don't like her.
370
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:21,890
Do you?
371
00:18:21,900 --> 00:18:23,960
I understand what she's going through.
372
00:18:23,970 --> 00:18:26,920
I remember what it was like to be
green,afraid you're going to mess up.
373
00:18:26,930 --> 00:18:27,790
Which she did.
374
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:29,700
So what,you want to rub it in?
375
00:18:30,170 --> 00:18:32,410
Come on,Ziva,I think she
deserves a little sympathy.
376
00:18:34,530 --> 00:18:36,570
Tony seems to like her.
377
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,250
I do not think Gibbs does.
378
00:18:55,510 --> 00:18:59,330
Who do you work for,Tobias?
Homeland Security or the FBI?
379
00:18:59,340 --> 00:19:01,980
The world's on my shoulders,Gibbs.
380
00:19:02,190 --> 00:19:04,170
World made of paper.
381
00:19:05,090 --> 00:19:07,280
Just throw that anywhere.
382
00:19:11,170 --> 00:19:15,320
Kind of defeats the purpose of e-mail when you
have to print it all out for the file anyway.
383
00:19:15,330 --> 00:19:17,170
Yeah. That's why I don't use it.
384
00:19:17,180 --> 00:19:20,220
Really? Not because you can't
figure out how to work it?
385
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:28,460
I spend most of my time now
coordinating the flow of information.
386
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:29,830
What can I give you?
387
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:34,520
Your opinion on Special
Agent Courtney Krieger.
388
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,630
Promising.
389
00:19:40,120 --> 00:19:43,860
Does everything by the book,but the
book doesn't show very much imagination.
390
00:19:43,870 --> 00:19:47,140
Definitely a child
of the electronic age.
391
00:19:47,150 --> 00:19:50,700
Currently running a low-level
asset in Highland Beach.
392
00:19:50,940 --> 00:19:53,390
Asset named Hinton.
393
00:19:53,820 --> 00:19:55,930
Okay,what am I missing?
394
00:19:55,940 --> 00:19:57,800
Fact he was murdered.
395
00:19:59,020 --> 00:20:00,880
Marvin Hinton is dead?
396
00:20:00,890 --> 00:20:03,450
I told her to notify you.
397
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,410
You've got to be kidding me.
398
00:20:11,420 --> 00:20:13,200
She sent an e-mail.
399
00:20:13,570 --> 00:20:15,700
It went in my spam folder.
400
00:20:15,990 --> 00:20:17,990
This is serious,Gibbs.
401
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,720
Alive,Hinton was just an ex-con
who made a deal with the devil.
402
00:20:21,730 --> 00:20:23,850
Dead means the devil came to collect.
403
00:20:23,860 --> 00:20:25,510
Devil have a name?
404
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,560
That's just about all he's got.
405
00:20:27,570 --> 00:20:30,180
You ever heard of Kamal Konkani?
406
00:20:30,900 --> 00:20:36,350
Built his reputation in the early '90s
manufacturing false I.D.s for IRA bombers.
407
00:20:36,360 --> 00:20:40,130
Moved around Europe one step ahead of
the authorities for the next ten years.
408
00:20:40,140 --> 00:20:42,100
Where he went,death followed.
409
00:20:42,110 --> 00:20:43,840
Been invisible since the millennium.
410
00:20:43,850 --> 00:20:45,740
He made a fortune
working for terrorists.
411
00:20:45,750 --> 00:20:47,550
Hinton wasn't a terrorist.
412
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,880
The game has changed in a decade.
413
00:20:49,890 --> 00:20:54,610
Documents are more sophisticated,electronic
tracking,facial recognition.
414
00:20:55,470 --> 00:20:57,940
We think Kamal was
using Hinton as a test.
415
00:20:57,950 --> 00:20:59,710
A test? For what?
416
00:21:00,260 --> 00:21:05,330
Homeland picked up chatter from
a training facility in Libya.
417
00:21:05,610 --> 00:21:10,250
A terrorist cell with assurances
of clean entry onto U.S.soil.
418
00:21:10,260 --> 00:21:12,670
Assurances from Kamal Konkani.
419
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,030
And with Hinton dead...
420
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,810
The only eyes on kamal
have been closed foa week.
421
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,780
You're telling me thatthere are terrorists
on the way here and they could be anyone?
422
00:21:28,790 --> 00:21:29,760
How did this start?
423
00:21:29,770 --> 00:21:32,940
With a dead man named Marvin
Hinton aka Frederick LeClair.
424
00:21:32,950 --> 00:21:34,860
An ex-con looking for a new identity.
425
00:21:34,870 --> 00:21:38,410
A wish your eraser was more
than happy to accommodate.
426
00:21:40,460 --> 00:21:41,990
My boss looks mad.
427
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:43,750
He's going to chew you up.
428
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,830
Out. Chew you out.
429
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,500
Maybe not,maybe he's one of
those silent kiyper tlles.
430
00:21:48,790 --> 00:21:51,360
- What do you know about this eraser?
- McGee.
431
00:21:52,860 --> 00:21:56,700
Believed to be a Pakistani national
raised in India and England.
432
00:21:56,930 --> 00:21:59,040
Made his name working with terrorists.
433
00:21:59,050 --> 00:22:01,210
Clean I.D.s,easy transit.
434
00:22:01,220 --> 00:22:05,040
Facilitated Basque terror attacks
in Spain,IRA bombings in England.
435
00:22:05,050 --> 00:22:07,660
The GIA bombing in France in 1995.
436
00:22:07,670 --> 00:22:11,230
Killed eight,wounded
hundreds,led by Khaled Kelkal.
437
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:15,260
French authorities identified the man
who made it possible as Kamal Konkani.
438
00:22:15,270 --> 00:22:16,660
That's a lot of K's.
439
00:22:16,670 --> 00:22:18,170
K's are funny.
440
00:22:18,180 --> 00:22:20,460
Agent Krieger. You ever
see The SunshineBoys?
441
00:22:21,090 --> 00:22:25,080
But they weren't able to put a face to the
name before he disappeared off the radar.
442
00:22:25,090 --> 00:22:28,080
Apparently,he's relocated to Maryland.
443
00:22:28,090 --> 00:22:31,040
Upgraded his system for
taking people off the grid.
444
00:22:31,050 --> 00:22:32,210
We were tipped off to Hinton.
445
00:22:32,220 --> 00:22:35,920
So it's possible that Kamal dropped
the dime himself to test his work.
446
00:22:35,930 --> 00:22:37,460
His work seems impeccable.
447
00:22:37,470 --> 00:22:38,740
Now he's covering his tracks.
448
00:22:38,750 --> 00:22:41,640
And shopping the service
to terrorists overseas.
449
00:22:41,650 --> 00:22:46,140
I'll monitor the situation in the training
camps, watch closely for any movement.
450
00:22:46,150 --> 00:22:49,180
I suggest you pick up
Kamal's trail on this end.
451
00:22:49,190 --> 00:22:50,310
No trace. No face.
452
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,010
This ought to be easy.
453
00:22:53,590 --> 00:22:56,290
Special Agent Krieger. A word.
454
00:22:56,710 --> 00:22:58,150
According to his Interpol bio,
455
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,120
Kamal rarely ventures out of his
safe house once it is established.
456
00:23:01,130 --> 00:23:02,970
Style's cloak-and-dagger.
Low-tech.
457
00:23:02,980 --> 00:23:04,930
No cell phe,no electronic messages.
458
00:23:04,940 --> 00:23:05,720
Smart.
459
00:23:05,730 --> 00:23:06,820
He prefers to pass notes.
460
00:23:06,830 --> 00:23:09,700
The Bureau provided several
intercepted by the French 12 years ago.
461
00:23:09,710 --> 00:23:11,070
Coded. Abby has them now.
462
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,330
I don't give a flying crap
what it states in the handbook!
463
00:23:14,340 --> 00:23:16,710
You don't know enough to
make a decision on your own!
464
00:23:17,050 --> 00:23:19,150
That was long overdue.
465
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:20,720
What have you got against her?
466
00:23:20,730 --> 00:23:23,340
I do not like cleaning
up after other people.
467
00:23:23,350 --> 00:23:26,270
It is very clear what you
would like to have against her.
468
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:27,780
Excuse me?
469
00:23:28,150 --> 00:23:29,880
You want to sleep with her.
470
00:23:29,890 --> 00:23:31,220
I...
471
00:23:31,460 --> 00:23:33,120
Well,so...
472
00:23:33,940 --> 00:23:35,600
what if I do?
473
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:37,730
Same old Tony.
474
00:23:37,740 --> 00:23:39,780
I thought the new Tony
wanted something more.
475
00:23:39,790 --> 00:23:41,740
A real relationship.
476
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,620
I was pretending to be someone else.
477
00:23:44,630 --> 00:23:46,090
Yeah,you could have fooled me.
478
00:23:46,100 --> 00:23:47,150
I thought you had grown.
479
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,020
I'm not particularly
interested in outgrowing sex.
480
00:23:49,030 --> 00:23:50,310
Sure it would be nice,Tony.
481
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,460
But it would be meaningless. Empty.
482
00:23:52,470 --> 00:23:53,980
It would be wrong for you.
483
00:23:53,990 --> 00:23:57,650
She's a pretty girl,but
she's just a girl.
484
00:23:58,340 --> 00:24:01,270
The man you were becoming needs a woman.
485
00:24:01,630 --> 00:24:03,770
At least I thought he did.
486
00:24:05,380 --> 00:24:07,370
You believe that? An e-mail!
487
00:24:10,300 --> 00:24:14,060
Perhaps we're looking at this
tattoo from the wrong angle.
488
00:24:14,070 --> 00:24:16,730
I've manipulated the
image every way I can.
489
00:24:16,740 --> 00:24:17,510
I've inverted it.
490
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:18,240
I've shrunk it.
491
00:24:18,250 --> 00:24:20,260
I've stretched it. I
can't figure it out.
492
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,240
Oh,gonna have to mute ya,Duck.
493
00:24:22,250 --> 00:24:23,330
- No,wait.
- Nothing personal.
494
00:24:23,340 --> 00:24:25,110
It-it's very peculiar...
495
00:24:26,330 --> 00:24:27,770
You got something on the tattoo?
496
00:24:27,780 --> 00:24:29,100
It's a work in progress,but...
497
00:24:29,110 --> 00:24:32,820
I did find out something about the
notes that the FBI got from Kamal.
498
00:24:32,830 --> 00:24:35,220
FBI code-breakers couldn't
make anything of the language.
499
00:24:35,230 --> 00:24:36,410
No,neither could I.
500
00:24:36,420 --> 00:24:39,240
But the paper that the notes
are written on,it has a curve,
501
00:24:39,250 --> 00:24:41,220
so it came off of some sort of spool.
502
00:24:41,230 --> 00:24:43,140
Cash register receipt.
503
00:24:43,150 --> 00:24:46,760
And Major Mass Spec had a
field day with these smudges--
504
00:24:46,770 --> 00:24:51,100
decided that it's makki
ki roti and sarson ka saag.
505
00:24:51,450 --> 00:24:53,560
Maize-flour bread and
mustard-leaf sauce.
506
00:24:53,570 --> 00:24:56,130
Goes nice with a glass of lassi.
507
00:24:56,140 --> 00:24:57,380
Indian food.
508
00:24:57,390 --> 00:24:59,080
Punjab,to be specific.
509
00:24:59,090 --> 00:25:00,580
Kamal likes his home cooking.
510
00:25:00,590 --> 00:25:02,320
Might add to his profile.
511
00:25:02,730 --> 00:25:03,440
It's good
work--
512
00:25:03,450 --> 00:25:04,910
Gonna have to mute you,Gibbs.
513
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:06,140
Don't say 'good work.
514
00:25:06,150 --> 00:25:08,340
Not till I figure out
the riddle of the tattoo.
515
00:25:15,550 --> 00:25:17,580
Ziva,can I ask you a question?
516
00:25:20,390 --> 00:25:23,190
- Isn't it hard being the only woman on the team?
- No.
517
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,640
God,I wish I had your confidence.
518
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,300
Well,it comes from experience.
519
00:25:31,360 --> 00:25:33,910
Well,the way I'm going,that's
something I'll never get.
520
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:36,600
Look,Courtney,
521
00:25:37,360 --> 00:25:40,000
they obviously saw
something valuable in you,
522
00:25:40,010 --> 00:25:42,470
otherwise you would not
have made it this far.
523
00:25:42,770 --> 00:25:43,950
Thank you.
524
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:48,320
But... stop trying to be perfect.
525
00:25:48,330 --> 00:25:49,420
You will mess up.
526
00:25:49,430 --> 00:25:52,480
And occasionally you
will take a beating.
527
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:54,670
And then what?
528
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,520
Then,you know the expression
'you get back on the horse'?
529
00:25:57,530 --> 00:25:59,790
I competed in equestrian.
530
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,460
Show jumping mostly.
531
00:26:04,980 --> 00:26:07,430
My uncle bred Arabians.
532
00:26:10,140 --> 00:26:11,770
Do we hug now?
533
00:26:11,780 --> 00:26:13,680
Assuming he still likes home cooking,
534
00:26:13,690 --> 00:26:17,290
there are 15 Indian restaurants within
a ten-mile radius of Highland Beach.
535
00:26:17,300 --> 00:26:18,510
Kamal doesn't travel.
536
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,710
Confine the search to walking distance.
537
00:26:23,590 --> 00:26:27,280
There's only one in the
vicinity-- Punjab Tandoori.
538
00:26:27,290 --> 00:26:28,370
Man's gotta eat.
539
00:26:28,380 --> 00:26:29,820
We know he's been in the area.
540
00:26:29,830 --> 00:26:31,400
If he's using the same M.O.,
541
00:26:31,410 --> 00:26:33,230
Passing notes; who's he handing 'em to?
542
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,330
Any chance he's got people from the
old country working on this side?
543
00:26:36,340 --> 00:26:38,970
Makes that restaurant the perfect
place to hang out if he does.
544
00:26:38,980 --> 00:26:40,840
Slim chance he could be
at the restaurant himself.
545
00:26:40,850 --> 00:26:43,420
Let's keep this one low-key
when we go to scope it out.
546
00:26:43,430 --> 00:26:45,760
Have to go in undercover.
547
00:26:46,660 --> 00:26:48,500
Hi. Table for two,please.
548
00:26:48,510 --> 00:26:49,750
Right this way.
549
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:51,740
Looks like a nice
place,doesn't it,honey?
550
00:26:51,750 --> 00:26:53,580
Sure does,sweet cheeks.
551
00:26:53,590 --> 00:26:55,550
Hold it steady,I'm gonna zoom in.
552
00:26:57,530 --> 00:26:59,090
On the waiter,DiNozzo.
553
00:26:59,100 --> 00:27:01,730
Our specials this evening are the.
554
00:27:01,740 --> 00:27:04,260
masala chops and the lobia curry.
555
00:27:04,270 --> 00:27:06,930
- The lobia is my personal favorite.
- And freeze.
556
00:27:07,110 --> 00:27:11,780
- Here are the menus and I'll be right back to take your order.
- Facial I.D.should only take a second here.
557
00:27:11,790 --> 00:27:13,780
Unless he has been erased.
558
00:27:14,610 --> 00:27:16,580
Ashwin Ramji.
559
00:27:16,590 --> 00:27:18,180
Married father of three.
560
00:27:18,190 --> 00:27:22,540
Resident since 1987,legal
citizen since 1999.
561
00:27:22,550 --> 00:27:23,430
Seems clean.
562
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,030
Courtney,can you get an
angle on the kitchen staff.
563
00:27:26,510 --> 00:27:28,040
She looks tense.
564
00:27:28,050 --> 00:27:29,980
Think maybe it should be you in there?
565
00:27:29,990 --> 00:27:31,730
I think she'll do fine.
566
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,320
Act natural. Just a normal date.
567
00:27:40,620 --> 00:27:42,800
Can I tell you a secret?
568
00:27:43,660 --> 00:27:45,640
It's been a while.
569
00:27:45,830 --> 00:27:48,030
Yeah. Me,too.
570
00:27:48,730 --> 00:27:51,280
Well,work comes first.
571
00:27:52,070 --> 00:27:54,270
Just pretend you like me.
572
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,470
That's not too hard to do.
573
00:27:59,620 --> 00:28:01,240
You have really soft hands.
574
00:28:02,170 --> 00:28:04,060
How is it going,Tony?
575
00:28:05,570 --> 00:28:07,550
I'm so sorry. No,I...
576
00:28:08,330 --> 00:28:09,140
It's okay.
577
00:28:09,150 --> 00:28:11,300
Good thing we didn't
put the mic in his pants.
578
00:28:13,590 --> 00:28:15,690
I'm just gonna go clean this up.
579
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,440
Not quite how I remember dating.
580
00:28:20,890 --> 00:28:23,340
Feels about par for the course.
581
00:28:25,810 --> 00:28:27,570
Sorry. Sorry,man.
582
00:28:27,580 --> 00:28:28,870
Excuse me.
583
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,050
Didn't get a good look
at the delivery boy.
584
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,250
Well,looks like they keep him busy.
585
00:28:34,260 --> 00:28:36,040
Maybe Kamal gets take-out.
586
00:28:36,050 --> 00:28:38,030
Cross-checking the addresses.
587
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:46,700
Can I help you,sir?
588
00:28:48,090 --> 00:28:49,370
Yeah.
589
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,170
Can we get our food to go?
590
00:28:52,180 --> 00:28:53,700
Because my girlfriend and...
591
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,990
I understand. Very naughty.
592
00:29:04,460 --> 00:29:06,190
Stop. Third on the list.
593
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:07,680
It's a rend apartment.
594
00:29:07,690 --> 00:29:10,760
Look at the name on the lease,McGee.
595
00:29:14,530 --> 00:29:15,920
Yeah.
596
00:29:15,930 --> 00:29:17,230
I see him.
597
00:29:17,730 --> 00:29:20,770
Regular dinner delivery
to a Frederick LeClaire.
598
00:29:20,780 --> 00:29:22,650
That's a name our
dead guy's used before.
599
00:29:22,660 --> 00:29:24,890
- Dead guys don't eat.
- Yeah.
600
00:29:24,900 --> 00:29:26,910
So who's using it now?
601
00:29:41,450 --> 00:29:43,350
We can't be this lucky.
602
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:46,480
Let him make the drop first,Ziva.
603
00:29:46,490 --> 00:29:48,340
Yes,Gibbs. Standing by.
604
00:29:48,350 --> 00:29:50,520
- Okay,take him.
- Moving in.
605
00:29:57,180 --> 00:29:58,050
Hi.
606
00:29:58,060 --> 00:29:59,880
I was wondering if you could help us.
607
00:29:59,890 --> 00:30:01,540
I'm a bit lost.
608
00:30:01,550 --> 00:30:03,550
Where are you,uh...
609
00:30:04,670 --> 00:30:06,040
What the he...
610
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,660
What the hell's going on?
611
00:30:20,450 --> 00:30:21,940
Just dinner.
612
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:23,460
The door?
613
00:30:23,470 --> 00:30:25,140
Allow me.
614
00:30:34,380 --> 00:30:35,370
Clear.
615
00:30:36,870 --> 00:30:38,080
Clear.
616
00:30:38,530 --> 00:30:40,190
Nobody here.
617
00:30:40,690 --> 00:30:42,180
This is Kamal's place.
618
00:30:42,190 --> 00:30:43,600
Yeah,or it was.
619
00:30:43,610 --> 00:30:45,340
Can't have gone far.
620
00:30:47,650 --> 00:30:49,130
Where's the guy who lives here?
621
00:30:49,140 --> 00:30:50,960
How would I know? I
just deliver the food.
622
00:30:50,970 --> 00:30:52,680
How's he going to eat if he's not home?
623
00:30:52,690 --> 00:30:54,270
It's a standing dinner order.
624
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,010
I-I drop off his meal every afternoon,
625
00:30:56,020 --> 00:30:58,340
and he pays two weeks in advance.
626
00:30:58,650 --> 00:30:59,540
So you've seen him?
627
00:30:59,550 --> 00:31:01,610
Yeah. Once.
628
00:31:01,620 --> 00:31:04,660
Gave me a-a big wad of cash
and a... and a good tip.
629
00:31:04,670 --> 00:31:06,280
Can you describe him?
630
00:31:06,690 --> 00:31:07,970
Okay,I ess.
631
00:31:09,610 --> 00:31:13,110
older black guy,about my
height,maybe-maybe a little taller.
632
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,520
What about this guy--
you seen him before?
633
00:31:15,530 --> 00:31:17,540
Is this a trick question?
634
00:31:18,500 --> 00:31:20,900
That is the guy who lives here.
635
00:31:21,290 --> 00:31:22,600
Frederick LeClaire.
636
00:31:22,610 --> 00:31:23,460
Marvin Hinton.
637
00:31:23,470 --> 00:31:25,130
Kamal Konkani.
638
00:31:25,140 --> 00:31:26,940
Our dead guy's our bad guy.
639
00:31:26,950 --> 00:31:28,610
Then who killed him?
640
00:31:36,510 --> 00:31:38,460
Robert Graves.
641
00:31:38,470 --> 00:31:40,020
25 years old.
642
00:31:40,030 --> 00:31:41,950
No aliases,no priors.
643
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:43,010
No passport.
644
00:31:43,020 --> 00:31:46,010
According to his W-4,he's been
working at the restaurant six months.
645
00:31:46,020 --> 00:31:48,580
If you believe everything on paper.
646
00:31:50,870 --> 00:31:52,760
How much longer are we going to do this?
647
00:31:52,770 --> 00:31:54,320
Anxious to get out?
648
00:31:54,330 --> 00:31:56,550
Wasn't planning on spending
the night in custody.
649
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:58,520
I have a term paper due tomorrow.
650
00:31:58,530 --> 00:32:00,790
Grad student in electrical engineering.
651
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,470
Solid B-minus average.
652
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,510
You grew up in Hagerstown.
653
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,110
Is it a nice neighborhood?
654
00:32:09,980 --> 00:32:11,860
My parents were working class.
655
00:32:11,870 --> 00:32:13,400
I've had jobs since I was 13
656
00:32:13,410 --> 00:32:17,460
and I've had to work twice as hard as
the silver spoons to get where I am.
657
00:32:17,470 --> 00:32:19,870
The delivery boy.
658
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:21,690
What did I do wrong?
659
00:32:21,700 --> 00:32:24,870
Was there something
in the package? Drugs?
660
00:32:32,330 --> 00:32:34,700
He could still be a
courier and not know it.
661
00:32:34,710 --> 00:32:37,000
He delivers information in to-go boxes.
662
00:32:37,010 --> 00:32:39,440
Returns with cash that
contains the reply.
663
00:32:39,450 --> 00:32:43,580
And someone else at the restaurant sends
on instructions to prospective clients,
664
00:32:43,590 --> 00:32:45,080
tucked in a meal.
665
00:32:45,940 --> 00:32:47,970
It doesn't matter how he did it.
666
00:32:47,980 --> 00:32:49,840
Hinton played you.
667
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,020
He was the eraser all along.
668
00:32:55,230 --> 00:32:57,230
Hinton was Kamal...
669
00:32:57,970 --> 00:32:59,790
that explains his so-called retirement.
670
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:00,650
He was in prison.
671
00:33:00,660 --> 00:33:04,410
Spending his time improving the technique
for eliminating a person's htory.
672
00:33:04,420 --> 00:33:06,640
Well. Which means...
673
00:33:06,650 --> 00:33:08,790
He was testing it on himself.
674
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:09,730
So,why...
675
00:33:09,740 --> 00:33:13,200
Let himself be caught on
the trafficking charge?
676
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:16,040
- And who...
- Killed him?
677
00:33:16,050 --> 00:33:18,330
That... was clearly
not part of the plan.
678
00:33:18,340 --> 00:33:22,950
We were working under the assumption the
eraser killed his client to cover his tracks.
679
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:24,850
What if it was the other way around?
680
00:33:24,860 --> 00:33:27,510
The eraser was killed
by one of his clients?
681
00:33:28,090 --> 00:33:29,190
Terrorists?
682
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:30,970
We don't even know if
they've arrived yet.
683
00:33:30,980 --> 00:33:32,980
Another client,then.
684
00:33:32,990 --> 00:33:36,850
Someone... with a past
they needed to forget.
685
00:33:36,860 --> 00:33:40,050
And once the client's past
had been erased,he kills Kamal.
686
00:33:40,060 --> 00:33:43,190
To eliminate the only person
who knows his true identity.
687
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:44,660
Almost.
688
00:33:44,670 --> 00:33:46,550
Not a him,a her.
689
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:48,880
- One of his girlfriends...
- Was actually a client.
690
00:33:48,890 --> 00:33:50,080
Cute.
691
00:33:50,090 --> 00:33:53,960
- She was erased,so we don't know anything about her.
- Wrong.
692
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,450
We do know how she kills.
693
00:34:03,590 --> 00:34:04,920
Where is Dr.Mallard?
694
00:34:04,930 --> 00:34:07,000
With our forensic scientist.
695
00:34:07,010 --> 00:34:10,140
I don't think he's ready
to release the body,though.
696
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:12,540
He really gets into his work.
697
00:34:12,550 --> 00:34:16,860
Yeah,he's turned himself inside out trying
to unscramble the meaning behind this tattoo.
698
00:34:17,430 --> 00:34:20,390
Dr.Mallard hates to
leave anything unfinished.
699
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:21,930
Yeah.
700
00:34:22,580 --> 00:34:24,210
Me,too.
701
00:34:37,930 --> 00:34:39,680
Dr.Hampton.
702
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:41,290
W-What are you doing?
703
00:34:41,300 --> 00:34:43,830
I would never cut into your
body without your permission,
704
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:47,340
but I would appreciate
the opportunity to...
705
00:34:47,650 --> 00:34:49,820
perhaps level the scales.
706
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:51,450
Of course.
707
00:34:51,460 --> 00:34:55,480
You could have come into my lab flapping and
quacking about miracles I failed to weave.
708
00:34:55,490 --> 00:34:58,290
I assure you that's not in my character.
709
00:34:59,810 --> 00:35:03,030
shall we,uh,do this together?
710
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,880
I could only hope that
this makes us even.
711
00:35:10,250 --> 00:35:12,820
I might even owe you one...
712
00:35:14,890 --> 00:35:16,350
Doctor.
713
00:35:18,310 --> 00:35:20,060
The girls have a theory.
714
00:35:20,070 --> 00:35:22,730
The murder does not have
anything to do with terrorism.
715
00:35:22,740 --> 00:35:24,940
It's one of the eraser's other clients.
716
00:35:24,950 --> 00:35:27,350
So the killer could be
anyone from anywhere?
717
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,020
We have been sifting through
instances involving mercury.
718
00:35:30,030 --> 00:35:32,160
Did not find a similar murder,but...
719
00:35:32,170 --> 00:35:33,900
Idaho three years ago.
720
00:35:33,910 --> 00:35:37,150
George Barney dies in his sleep
after having a few too many drinks.
721
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:38,750
Choked to death on his own vomit.
722
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:40,740
He's buried on his family farm.
723
00:35:40,750 --> 00:35:43,010
Last month,the Barneys
are digging a new well.
724
00:35:43,020 --> 00:35:45,560
It turns out,the groundwater
had been contaminated.
725
00:35:45,570 --> 00:35:50,820
EPA was called in,uh,traced the source of the
contamination back to a leak in George Barney's casket.
726
00:35:50,830 --> 00:35:52,190
Mercury.
727
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,040
His young widow had been the
high school science teacher.
728
00:35:55,050 --> 00:35:57,600
She moved on after his untimely death.
729
00:35:57,610 --> 00:35:59,280
Local cops couldn't track her down.
730
00:35:59,290 --> 00:36:00,890
She killed her husband.
731
00:36:00,900 --> 00:36:03,380
Here's a picture of the grieving wife.
732
00:36:04,070 --> 00:36:05,890
Look familiar?
733
00:36:16,980 --> 00:36:19,900
Do you need me to
identify another photo?
734
00:36:21,370 --> 00:36:23,840
Recognize this person?
735
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,230
Her hair matches one of the
samples from Hinton's condo.
736
00:36:28,240 --> 00:36:29,730
And the murder has her signature.
737
00:36:29,740 --> 00:36:30,650
All right,look.
738
00:36:30,660 --> 00:36:32,840
It was a tragedy when my husband died.
739
00:36:32,850 --> 00:36:35,510
The entire town thought so.
740
00:36:36,070 --> 00:36:39,660
Doesn't sound like you
shared their sentiments.
741
00:36:40,060 --> 00:36:44,460
They didn't know what he was like when
he was drunk,which was all the time.
742
00:36:44,470 --> 00:36:49,170
So when the opportunity presented
itself to start a new life,you took it.
743
00:36:49,890 --> 00:36:51,190
Wouldn't you?
744
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:54,130
How did Marvin Hinton
know you were on the run?
745
00:36:58,070 --> 00:37:02,270
He knew everything about me in
one look,everything that matters.
746
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,650
He knew how I'd gotten my new name.
747
00:37:06,180 --> 00:37:09,120
He said he'd been
contacted the same way.
748
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:11,830
So you went home with him?
749
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:15,540
Did it occur to you that he was the
one who set up your new identity?
750
00:37:15,550 --> 00:37:17,460
That he was toying with you?
751
00:37:18,430 --> 00:37:22,160
'Cause he was the only one who
knew about your past. Right?
752
00:37:24,690 --> 00:37:26,710
I didn't kill him.
753
00:37:27,690 --> 00:37:31,370
I suppose it wouldn't be any
fun if she just admitted it.
754
00:37:31,380 --> 00:37:32,750
Yes,sir.
755
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:34,500
Delivery boy still here?
756
00:37:34,510 --> 00:37:35,770
Waiting in the conference room.
757
00:37:35,780 --> 00:37:37,900
Make sure he gets home.
758
00:37:38,010 --> 00:37:39,990
Special Agent Krieger.
759
00:37:42,300 --> 00:37:43,920
Nice work today.
760
00:37:52,260 --> 00:37:53,660
She killed once for a new life.
761
00:37:53,670 --> 00:37:54,740
Why not twice?
762
00:37:54,750 --> 00:37:57,090
Did us a favor--
Kamal is dead.
763
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:00,270
It doesn't seem to bother
his international clients.
764
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:01,410
The terrorist training camp?
765
00:38:01,420 --> 00:38:03,290
Marine task force just went in.
766
00:38:03,300 --> 00:38:04,240
And?
767
00:38:04,250 --> 00:38:05,330
One terrorist killed.
768
00:38:05,340 --> 00:38:07,340
They found an American
passport on his body.
769
00:38:07,350 --> 00:38:09,140
It went through squeaky clean.
770
00:38:09,150 --> 00:38:10,630
Kamal had completed the job.
771
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:12,220
What about the rest of the cell?
772
00:38:12,230 --> 00:38:14,050
Too late. Already gone.
773
00:38:14,060 --> 00:38:15,250
They're on their way here.
774
00:38:15,260 --> 00:38:17,970
And the only man who knows who
they are is past telling us.
775
00:38:17,980 --> 00:38:20,330
That's not certain,Tony.
776
00:38:20,340 --> 00:38:23,570
Our dead man may have
one thing left to say.
777
00:38:25,890 --> 00:38:28,430
We cracked it,Gibbs; me and
Ducky-- we solved the puzzle.
778
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:29,860
We were just looking at it wrong.
779
00:38:29,870 --> 00:38:32,810
Yeah,it was Jordon,uh...
780
00:38:33,220 --> 00:38:38,450
Dr.Hampton who had the idea of
excising the section of inked flesh.
781
00:38:38,460 --> 00:38:39,740
That is so gross.
782
00:38:39,750 --> 00:38:41,820
But what we found is so cool.
783
00:38:41,830 --> 00:38:45,660
The blotchy,thick,blue jailhouse
dye-- that's just a camouflage.
784
00:38:45,670 --> 00:38:48,500
Yes,the real clue is underneath,
785
00:38:48,510 --> 00:38:51,080
hidden like a
painted-over Monet canvas.
786
00:38:51,090 --> 00:38:55,220
All I had to do was eliminate
the blue to clarify it.
787
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:57,470
This...
788
00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:00,260
is the original tattoo.
789
00:39:00,580 --> 00:39:03,140
It's beautiful,with deeper needling.
790
00:39:05,130 --> 00:39:06,350
Professional work.
791
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,230
It's a masterpiece;
it's a Blaine Parker.
792
00:39:08,240 --> 00:39:10,900
He's something of a
legend,Boston artist.
793
00:39:10,910 --> 00:39:12,950
A man like Hinton trying
to shed his past...
794
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,680
So I talked to Parker's assistant,and
she was able to determine the exact dates
795
00:39:16,690 --> 00:39:18,720
when Hinton got the original tattoo.
796
00:39:18,730 --> 00:39:22,990
Over a period of several
days,ten years ago.
797
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,970
Interpol's timeline,puts
Kamal in London ten years ago.
798
00:39:25,980 --> 00:39:27,580
Hinton's not Kamal.
799
00:39:27,590 --> 00:39:28,980
Delivery boy lied to us.
800
00:39:28,990 --> 00:39:30,460
He did more than that; he set us up.
801
00:39:30,470 --> 00:39:32,290
He wanted us to believe it was Hinton.
802
00:39:32,300 --> 00:39:34,220
You think the kid's Kamal?
803
00:39:34,230 --> 00:39:35,890
He would have had to start
when he was eight years old.
804
00:39:35,900 --> 00:39:39,290
Not if he's the new
Dread Pirate Roberts.
805
00:39:39,630 --> 00:39:41,060
I love The Princess Bride.
806
00:39:41,070 --> 00:39:43,820
No one would ever surrender
to the Dread Pirate Westley.
807
00:39:49,350 --> 00:39:52,870
Uh,the Dread Pirate Roberts
picks a successor,then trains him,
808
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:57,580
starts calling him Roberts and then
settles into a cushy retirement.
809
00:39:57,590 --> 00:40:00,370
It's the name Kamal
that sells the business.
810
00:40:01,830 --> 00:40:03,790
You can let me off up here.
811
00:40:12,720 --> 00:40:15,100
Sorry for the inconvenience.
812
00:40:15,390 --> 00:40:17,420
Just a case of mistaken identity.
813
00:40:17,430 --> 00:40:19,530
- Good luck on your term paper.
- Thanks.
814
00:40:21,310 --> 00:40:22,600
Ziva,where are you?
815
00:40:22,610 --> 00:40:24,260
Dropping off Graves,Gibbs.
816
00:40:24,270 --> 00:40:25,640
Don't!
817
00:40:41,180 --> 00:40:42,810
Can we hug now?
818
00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:54,660
From your closet.
819
00:40:56,940 --> 00:40:58,440
Special delivery.
820
00:41:00,460 --> 00:41:02,340
How'd you find Kamal?
821
00:41:03,010 --> 00:41:04,670
You don't find Kamal.
822
00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:06,460
Kamal finds you.
823
00:41:06,470 --> 00:41:08,750
He tempt you with the
money or the power?
824
00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:11,140
Or just the chance to
become somebody else?
825
00:41:11,150 --> 00:41:13,660
Kamal could tell you needed him.
826
00:41:14,310 --> 00:41:16,020
He needed me.
827
00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:19,590
He can't even work his own
computer. Man's a dinosaur.
828
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:21,450
He knows how to read people.
829
00:41:21,460 --> 00:41:23,070
Cover his tracks.
830
00:41:23,670 --> 00:41:25,980
But you don't have the discipline.
831
00:41:26,490 --> 00:41:28,410
Hinton figured you out.
832
00:41:28,610 --> 00:41:30,500
He would've led the FBI right to you.
833
00:41:30,510 --> 00:41:33,260
So you killed him
before he got the chance.
834
00:41:33,270 --> 00:41:35,530
Made us think he was Kamal.
835
00:41:35,540 --> 00:41:37,960
Then you framed another
client for his murder.
836
00:41:37,970 --> 00:41:41,150
Shannon O'Hara,aka Karen Barney.
837
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:42,380
You knew how she'd killed in the past.
838
00:41:42,390 --> 00:41:44,340
She was your first client.
839
00:41:47,180 --> 00:41:48,910
Good for you.
840
00:41:49,390 --> 00:41:51,690
You've got the whole story.
841
00:41:53,100 --> 00:41:55,730
The worst mistake you made...
842
00:41:56,270 --> 00:41:59,230
You tried to shoot our agents.
843
00:42:02,550 --> 00:42:05,220
Hey,let me hang that up for you,Tobias.
844
00:42:09,090 --> 00:42:10,350
Sit down!
845
00:42:15,020 --> 00:42:15,650
What do you want?
846
00:42:15,660 --> 00:42:17,510
The rest of your client list.
847
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,090
Tell us where to find the real Kamal!
848
00:42:20,850 --> 00:42:22,060
Now!
849
00:42:28,170 --> 00:42:30,080
I was at an
embassy party once--
850
00:42:30,090 --> 00:42:32,700
gated,razor wire,surveillance
system,the whole deal--
851
00:42:33,010 --> 00:42:37,340
and this guy just walks in the front
door,wearing T-shirt that says Liquor Store.
852
00:42:37,350 --> 00:42:40,630
Holds up a brown paper bag,and he goes,
853
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,610
Did anybody order,um,a bottle of vodk
854
00:42:44,700 --> 00:42:47,560
Hmm,the places you can
access when you look the part.
855
00:42:47,980 --> 00:42:49,350
This thing starts kind of slow.
856
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:50,920
I'm sure it gets better.
857
00:42:52,010 --> 00:42:53,740
The picture's up,boss.
858
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:56,690
An NCIS production.
859
00:42:56,700 --> 00:42:59,440
Brought to you by Leroy Jethro Gibbs.
860
00:42:59,690 --> 00:43:04,160
Starring,as usual,the FBI,and
the elusive Kamal Konkani.
861
00:43:05,030 --> 00:43:06,230
Freeze it.
862
00:43:07,930 --> 00:43:10,730
The Dread Pirate Roberts,I presume.
863
00:43:11,550 --> 00:43:13,240
Did you get her number?
864
00:43:13,700 --> 00:43:15,610
Who,Courtney? No.
865
00:43:17,100 --> 00:43:18,220
I did.
866
00:43:18,230 --> 00:43:19,970
She wants to learn how to fight.
