Of course, and what if she really doesn't want one? What if she says she doesn't really does?
They're feelings can be heard if you don't exactly on the other hand. She's gonna be really angry if she actually doesn't and you do exactly

Sorry guys
What about clothes?
Oh
Now's been here less than a week and already taken over whistle duties Eric is not a happy cat for
Shouldn't worry. It won't be long before she's folding a tent like all of us because many mysteries of heady for some reason intelligence analysts just seemed to rub it the wrong way
Corporal Thomas Porter stationed out of Camp Pendleton security guard discovered his body
It was in the parking garage of the Beverly Hills rodeo collection
Minimal of the region famous long way from Pendleton. It's a long way from a Pendleton corporals pay grade
The hand was severed at the wrist and it's missing
What's not is his watch car keys and wallet which was full of cashing credit cards Beverly Hills PD is working up forensics
So obviously robbery not a motive why us heady corporal Porter was an administrative clerk in
Camp Pendleton's g2 everyone in that office has top secret security clearance even clerks
I was just getting to that this Jones, but thank you
Director Vance wants us to pay special attention to Corporal Porter's death make sure we haven't been compromised
And Beverly Hills PD has agreed that we'll take the lead in this
Security cam footage security guard saw a man who he believed is our killer and then shortly after he and another man
We're in a struggle in the garage just a few minutes before they found Porter's body
But it's too quick to get anything useful took his hand for a reason
Porter worked in intelligence. Maybe his prints get him access to sensitive material
Very possible, but also we have a size Porter's intel specialty
Single lives on base housing enlisted four years ago out of Orange County
He completed a tour in Iraq just a few weeks ago. His civilian and military records are clean
Porter co is doing an intelligence audit to determine if there's any sensitive material missing and Beverly Hills PD did a phone interview
Which produced two people worth talking to
PFC James Winston was in his unit something wonky was going on between them
And then there's Corporal Andrew Peterson Porter's best friend. He works in the motor pool
Deeks Kenzie work with Beverly Hills PD forensics. I
Understand you're a tea drinker
There is no trouble so great or grave that cannot be diminished by a nice cup of tea
The FC James Winston. Yes, sir high school quarterback
Lahabra high 2006 city champs
He could hit that any harder if Corporal Porter's picture was on it
NCIS
Look I'd like to tell me CEO said you had issues
We did he owed me how much a couple of grand it's a lot of money on a pfc salary not enough to kill him over
Look, I was pissed. He was slow and paying me back. I'm not saying I wasn't but
No, he'd borrowed from me before and he always came through
So they had something going on wouldn't be much longer. What kind of something?
Business deal supposed to pay off big
It was real excited about it
Oh
Where were you the day he was killed my barracks room you got somebody could vouch for you
Just my rack in the throne too many Jackson I before
You might be my guest
Give it your best shot
I
Was a receiver a damn good wide receiver
Wanted to be a quarterback
Everybody wants to be a quarterback quarterbacks of the stars quarterbacks get all the glory to get the applause to get the girls
That's okay. Thanks
Beverly Hills PD forensics came in Corporal Porter died from massive blood loss after his jugular vein and carotid artery were severed the
throat cuts and hand amputation were made by
Like quote here a very sharp blade between seven and twelve inches in length
Well, that will describe any number of k-bar combat knives
I could describe any number of all kinds of knives including the ones they use at the sushi restaurant them all you're suggesting a sushi chef
What have murdered Corporal Porter?
Omicosti can be tricky
You know because if you yeah, I got it, okay, I don't think thank you. No, I mean, I'm just I get it
It means
So how well did you know Porter Corporal Peterson
Tom and I hit it off the first day we met
We were the only Marines into football real football
Sock
He was man you a Mars in all
Anybody in their right mind hates the Red Devils, but I loved him for loving the game
You
Don't have a clue of course not many Americans do
Except every four years when the World Cup comes around then they all pretend to give a crap
You have any idea who would have wanted to kill your buddy?
He was a cool dude
Diane must be devastated Diane
His girlfriend Diane Farley it works at easy mark. They were thinking about getting married except
Except what she thought that he was cheating on her not sure why he was crazy about that girl
The parking garage has four surveillance cams. Let's start with the one near the entrance
All right, I've cued it back an hour before they found the body Corporal Porter drove a great Nissan
There time of entry 225
Seven minutes before the guard found his body. Let's see if we can find him on one of the other cams
You and I have a problem I wouldn't exactly call it a problem like a situation
Maybe a problem
Because I'm new
No, because you should say this is
Yeah
Has to do with being a type a with borderline EdT and control issues with men I admire
Something I'm aware of working on and hope one day to have a measure of control of her. You admire me stop
Stop the tape
Whoever cut off Corporal Porter's hand
Wanted what was inside that case? Yeah
Yeah
Standard issue Smith and Wesson 100 series handcuffs 25 bucks online doesn't make sense
Boat cutters could have snapped the morph no problem nothing unusual about the briefcase either so the
$64,000 question is what's in the briefcase?
It could be anything
Well, the most obvious is classified material from this g2 unit well
They're halfway through the audit and so far nothing's come up compromised drugs baribans securities jewelry the most basic of all cash
Well, Eric said the bank and credit card accounts haven't shown anything unusual as far as deposits or charges
Sure, but cash like that never sees the inside of a bank
The money was dirty. They wouldn't want a paper trail
Maybe he was here to spend it
Corporal Peterson said he was uh thinking about getting married you engage a ring from Tiffany's
You have no idea what that little blue box means to a girl. Oh, but I do
Does he cook?
Well, she does it's with a pot from Singapore a spoon given to her by a shaman and a cookbook written in Swahili
I'm more of a frozen pizza pocket guy myself. Ladies must love that. That's all about the wine parry
Diane
Hi, can I help you find something is there anywhere we could talk?
Look
Look if I leave the floor, they're gonna talk my pay and since Tom and I weren't married yet the bereavement leave doesn't apply
Have you found out who did this? Not yet. We were hoping that you could help us out
That's my supervisor
Deeks I see a crock pot in your future
Deeks
Was Tom in any kind of trouble no
No, not that I knew about he was a really great guy. I'm sure he was but someone killed him and
They did that for a reason Diane
When he came back from Iraq, he was different different how all he could talk about were sports cars
Plasma TVs
Spent of watches you were thinking of getting married
Yeah, we're looking at rings I
didn't even found one it was
just a simple band with a
tiny diamond, but
I really loved
But he said it wasn't big enough
I could be gild
Was he cheating on you it's home like the flirt
He did that was just him
But I was jealous
So stupid
Don't stupid
The contents of Porter's car
Gas station receipt from an orange County station the morning of Porter's murder 40 bucks of unleaded and a dollar fifty for
Ultra tranq mm-hmm ultra is a line of herbal drinks formulated to boost brain function and enhance moods
Trank is supposed to calm me down
Trank like tranquilizer you're good
Sorry nervous sarcasm. It's another of my personality flaws. I have a lot of them, but I'm aware of them
That's the good thing you realize you finished my sentence. I
Wouldn't consider it a problem yet
Here's what is um
Most people would want the opposite of Trank if you're leaving for a road trip first thing in the morning
Unless you're about to do something that makes you nervous
Very good
said sincerely
ATM receipt from the same gas station took out 60 bucks
You don't take out cash if you have enough to fill a briefcase
Parking receipts one from the rodeo collection the other from United Parking downtown
When two days ago?
That's two trips to Los Angeles in 48 hours. Where's the garage downtown?
Inside the California jewelry mart
200 stores a wholesale heaven gee
A lot of the merchandise gets sold to retailers a lot of stores are sold direct
Porter was either here to find a middleman to help him unload the goodies in that case
Buying some goodies at bargain prices with the cash in the case jewelry mark 101
Thing is his girlfriend said that he was impulsive when it came to spend
It's not the kind of guy that's gonna drive a hundred miles to the jewelry mark to get a bargain
Question is what was he selling and who was he selling it to?
You think she'd use it and he likes letters it is exotic
beautiful isn't it
From the Bengal region of East India circa 1940 how much 14,000
Not rupees
You ever seen this guy
Take a different approach
Somebody wanted to sell something they shouldn't be selling who would they go to around here?
Jacob rose in third floor
1015 early lunch security panels not late
You don't leave a store full of jewels without turning on the alarm
Mr. Rose
You
Thank you
So the guy with the letter opener was right
Jacob Rosen is the man you went to if you had things of questionable origin or so
Find your buyer for a price
The hand Sam I know whoever cut off roses didn't take it like they did porters. Why didn't need to
Wasn't attached to a briefcase. Why do you cut it off?
Send a message
Maybe
LAPD is actually being reasonable because this homicide is part of our ongoing criminal investigation
They're down for us taking whatever we need from the crime. So I don't think it's a matter of being reasonable Sam
Because of their caseload because Jacob Rosen was old-school
No computer no computer
In this day and age, why would you write anything but your signature by hand?
It's ridiculous
What have I done to put together a group with no appreciation of that hand-written word?
Even when our ledger entries have intrinsically more meaning to the writer and by extension to the reader as well
I'm at a loss. I fortunately had a sore we
Maybe not
Looks like he did business with at least four jewelry stores near O'Day or drive on a regular basis
We ran backgrounds on the employees and owners of the four jewelry stores. None seemed to have any relevance
Except for one Aziz Ansheri is a devout Muslim and owner of Ansheri jewelry on Brighton Way
He was a prominent jeweler during Saddam Hussein's regime serving the president's family himself on occasion
Now during Corporal Porter's tour in Iraq
His squad leader was accused of stealing valuables from a house that they raided and bagged that
Not just any valuables
Ancient jewelry looted from the National Museum when we invaded in 03 order was questioned but not implicated
The National Museum was home to some of the greatest treasures from ancient Babylon and Mesopotamia
US didn't bomb it, but we also didn't secure it afterwards. So when the museum employees fled for their safety
Iraqis went on a looting spree not our finest hour
Over half of the artifacts are still missing today. Oh and
Jacob Rosen's phone records indicate that he called Aziz Ansheri just a few days ago
So maybe Porter did the same thing his squad leader did he stole something in Iraq
He had already stolen from the museum and took it home only he didn't get caught and then Jacob Rosen hooked him up with Ansheri
And Porter tried to sell it to him
And then sherry being a devout Muslim and a friend of Saddam took offense to the theft and killed him
Well, I cut off his hand
I mean Porter must have had the key to the handcuffs on him, right? It takes time to sever a limb besides being incredibly, you know
Messy. It's a strict interpretation of Sharia law
It calls up for the cutting off of the thief's hand as punishment in Ansheri's mind Jacob Rosen was as bad as Porter
Killed him and cut off his hand as well
We're trying to make a point. It's a good theory, but it's just a theory
We got to get close to and shitty
Feel out his interest in old-school jewelry
This is the Rolex M series
Milga's green
Faraday cage construction
Forty millimeter polished steel bezel
Rumored to become the most collected Rolex ever. Mm-hmm. Does a shoe poison his gas or anything cool?
You scratch it you buy it
And miss black
It's your wrist that hopefully makes the biggest impression on mr.
Unsharing from ancient Babylonia displayed in Baghdad's National Museum until the US invasion
How did you?
There's the happy couple now, what do you think lady in the trap?
More like Beauty and the Beast
Uh-oh trouble in paradise you buy them as a couple
Sala even a troll can score supermodel if he's rolling large, so where does that leave us? I don't swear to G
I have a charming personality
new
Yeah, you kind of screwed I tracked more of an intellectual type. Oh, yeah
Good luck with that
Good afternoon
How can I help you?
We are looking for an engagement ring
Of course a big one. Oh, she told me that size doesn't matter
Oh my god, look at that one. Oh, it's so beautiful my sweet
Excellent choice
A beautiful diamond for a beautiful woman
There's an interesting bracelet
Do you mind if I ask you where you got it? Oh, it was a gift from who a friend
I can't help you you must leave
What are you doing in there just trying to make it look convincing you suck at being convincing dicks
What else is my sweet? It's a term of endearment like 1945
Callan you need to watch this guy's definitely sketchy. We're talking about in sherry, right?
Princess princess what don't worry about it
I
Think just be careful with the car
And she seems nervous
The only way to find out why he's nervous is to be inside with him
Here's the bonus Sam. I'm hungry. It's gonna be on Heddy's dime. You got to get more courage
This place is flavor of the month
Four weeks to get a res it's LA
And we do it everybody else in LA does by our way in lie
You got to take a photo and send it to Eric
Those losers in marketing won't believe we got reservations at this place
Got it
I really can stand out stand down
Yeah, got the pick facial rack took all of two seconds to get a hit
His name's Salim al-Jamal. He's a major player in terrorist funding for al-Qaeda
Salim al-Jamal a business man that funnels money to the Middle East to finance Islamic terrorist training camps. I
Didn't know this. I only know him as a potential client or so
It's the truth
How about this guy
You recognize him
His name was Corporal Thomas Porter
I
Have seen this one before you were meeting with him to buy ancient artifacts a meeting that was arranged by Jacob Rosen
No, that that's not true. You consider yourself to be a true believer. Mr. N. Sheary
Sam what does the Quran say about line it's considered an abomination
You're trying to use my religion against me
It won't work
Sheary's a mean decorator. He's got some cool stuff. Yeah, if you like living in a museum
Looking for a knife, right
It's decorative and have a tough time slicing bread
I
What are you doing in my house?
Mrs. Anshari, who are you?
We're federal agents. You have no right to be here. Actually, we do ma'am. It's called a feisty warrant
I have to search your house. I
Promise will be respectful. Where is my husband?
You met Porter. No
He tried to sell you artifacts stolen from Iraq. I did not meet this man
You did meet this man and you killed this man and following strict sherry law
You cut off the thief's hand as punishment
I did not do that and you took the artifacts and you sold them to raise money for Al-Jamal terrorist activities
Invade my country under false pretenses
You are low our national museum and our palaces to be plundered
You bomb our villages to kill our women and children and you call me a terrorist
You
Deeks
Hey, this one was used for more than slicing bread
Well, they pushed him and he broke yeah only he broke left when we expected him to break right
That kind of moral outrage is hard to fake
I think we found the knife Deeks is sending Callan a picture right now and coming to your cell
We can definitely come from and sherry's about in his house a Quran scriptures prayer rugs and his wife wears a hijab
Got it. We have the photo
Is the knife resting on a paperback yeah, I was inside it hidden in a toolbox get back to you
What is it?
Sharia amputation ritual for theft is very specific the knife doesn't matter, but what does is what is wrapped in
It would be a sacred ceremonial cloth
Not a paperback
So whoever hit the knife got the ritual wrong and sherry's devout
He wouldn't got it wrong much as I don't like him G. He's being set up
So
The necklace you found was a small part of what Queen Puabi was adorned with when she was buried in the royal tomb of Ur
2,500 years ago in Mesopotamia now modern-day Iraq the tomb was discovered in 1922
What made the find remarkable was that it had avoided looters for centuries
After the jewelry was put on display in Iraq's National Museum
It took a mere 60 years for it to be looted by locals after we invaded so the necklace was left with the knife to set up in sherry
Which means a lot more of Queen Puabi's jewelry still in the case Corporal Porter was carrying
She does that it's return would mean a lot for Iraq U.S. Relations, and that's if you can find it before it's sold
So whoever killed Porter and set up in sherry either knew Porter or he knew Rosen. Oh both
Kenzie Dicks
Get back to Rosen's boxes. See if you can find a vector done Eric
This guy probably drove Dan sherry's check for nearby traffic camps
Closest traffic cam is on the corner of Bedford and El Vado just two blocks down Eric there
That's it all right
Windows are too dark to make the driver. No Sam. It's the car that we recognize
That same SUV entered the parking garage just an hour before Porter was killed
If I can adjust the angle we might be able to see the license plate
On it car belongs to
PFC Winston the one Porter owed money to quarterbacks
You
Would you mind and quiet I am trying to concentrate
Are you mad at me dogs go mad people people get angry
This is about the jewelry store
Listen, I was just trying to sell the fact that we were a couple. Yeah, whatever like anybody would believe that we're a couple
Right you are so not my type
Would you care to explain?
You got this wrong I can prove I was on base all day the car wasn't I have no idea how that could have happened
Maybe because you gave it to whoever you hired to do the job. No, that's not true. I didn't hire anyone
Kenzie we found a vector a name on one of Jacob Rosen's payment ledgers
He once were for Rosen as a courier who had access to your keys. No one somebody could have made a copy called wash mechanic
I wash it myself the repairs
Was a personal vehicle he's not supposed to who's he was a guy knowing the motor pool that would be corporal Peterson
He didn't show up for work this morning left us a man short any idea where he may be not in his barracks when we checked
Maybe this girlfriend in San Ysidro spends a lot of time there
Girl for his name Ellen Ellen what no idea sir
Eric it get me a name for corporal Andrew Peterson's girlfriend in San Ysidro. I need it fast name Ellen no last
Do they always expect miracles pretty much awesome her
Interpreters and sell records got a number he calls in San Siro a lot
Reverse directory for an Ellen Rodriguez 62 41 Garby Court Road
Nice work you do
Oh
He's making a run to the border Sam
Oh
What if fence ends in five miles he gets off-road and crosses over his in Mexico, it's not gonna happen
Oh
That's an auto marine
Oh
Director Vance
Peterson was a missing link
Porter tells his best friend about what he's stolen in Iraq Peterson hooks him up with his old boy
He also hooks him up with and shitty best friend kills Porter and Rosen sets up and sherry
Uses Winston's carways in LA so he can't be ID
Yeah, it would have been a good plan if it wasn't for a certain wide receiver that knew about Sharia
Someone has to put points on the board
There comes the birthday girl
Beverly Hills PD discovered this among corporal Porter's belongings. I
Assured them we'd know what to do with it
Director Vance wants you all to know how pleased he is that you were able to recover the artifact
Well done
She seems down
Birthdays can be depressing especially when no one buys you a gift or throws you a party
Hey, it's what she wanted and for once we didn't cave
Happy birthday
Happy birthday, Hedy from all of us I
Thought it would go perfect with your saffron jacket exactly
But this is from you alone
No
It's beautiful my dear
So what's wrong with all of you this is a party not a week the single most in my desk
Oh
Dan hey special agent Ken Z Blight and CIS I
Was wondering if I could drop by I am I have something that Tom left for you
You
