Previously on NCIS Los Angeles.
Who did this to you?
His name is Abdul Abbasah.
Moe.
Is this about taking down a terrorist?
Or about protecting Moe because you feel responsible for him?
When the time comes, I will contact you.
I will arrange for a passport so you can leave the country and join our cause.
That's Abdul's overwatch signature.
You just got off a plane in Sanaa.
There will be a time and a place for what you want.
And I promise you, you'll have it.
A-tini.
Shoo-tini.
You're late.
Too many margaritas at happy hour last night?
I don't drink margaritas.
Deeks is back today, right?
That's what he said.
Don't you get carried away a yoga class?
I don't do yoga.
That's probably a big crowd at the farmer's market.
I know you do the farmer's market.
The farmer's market is on Sunday.
Did you sleep through your alarm?
Eddie parked in your space again.
We talked about this.
You got to be nice to her.
I did not park in my spot.
I was checking on Deeks, okay?
Checking?
I was watching his back.
You were trying to catch him.
The guy gets shot because he doesn't alter his daily routine.
I wanted to make sure he got the memo on personal security.
Being this is his first day back and all.
And?
Got tired of waiting for him to leave home.
I guess he slept through his alarm clock.
Better call him then.
That's my bag.
What the?
That'd be for me.
Marty Deeks.
Hey, it's Kenzie. Hey.
How did your phone get in Sam's bag?
I must have slipped it in there while he was waiting in line for coffee.
Medium triple.
Low fat, hold the phone.
You didn't follow me through the coffee shop.
I would have spotted you.
All right, I staked out the coffee shop.
I go to three different coffee shops.
A different one each day.
You staked out that same coffee shop
every morning this week, didn't you?
He did get his phone into your bag.
I would have seen him.
But you didn't.
You hear the shrill, you know the drill.
Welcome back, partner.
Thanks.
Who did you pay, and how much?
School kid, 20 bucks.
Mr. Deeks, you've been missed.
Mr. Hannah, your alias Hakeem Fiat
has been contacted via e-mail.
It was sent to the address given to you by Abdul Habaza
before he fled to Yemen. Eric.
Cinder is untraceable.
No prior activity on either e-mail account.
Message consists of an address in West Hollywood
at date and a time.
Date is today. Time this afternoon.
Setting up a meeting.
What's the latest on Abdul Habaza?
We've been able to monitor his movement
since he left the U.S.
He flew to Yemen via Egypt.
He's been back for nearly a month
and has yet to leave the capital of Sana'a.
It was our hope that Abdul Habaza
would lead us to his brother, Sadat,
the leader of the Warriors for Islam.
But as far as we've ascertained, that hasn't yet happened.
The Egyptian revolution has made that entire region unstable.
Sadat is on a dozen different terrorist lists.
He went underground about 18 months ago
and is believed to be hiding somewhere in the south of the country.
Now, cell phone intercepts suggest that Abdul and Sadat
may be planning a meeting for some time in the next two weeks.
They also prove that Sadat is still alive.
Why do we keep losing the signal?
The chemical marker Sam sprayed on that duel is breaking down.
Narrow streets in a built-up area don't help
and it no longer works when he's indoors.
So how long until we lose him completely?
Several days? Week at the most?
I need to take that meeting, Eddie.
One step at a time, Mr. Hannah,
don't lose sight of the bigger picture.
Our prize is Sadat
and not just his brother.
So how do you want to reply to Abdul's e-mail?
Call the check over.
Loud and clear, Sam.
What do we have, Eric?
All right, address is a short-term rental service department
cash transaction.
Guess name is...
Smith.
Kloss.
Jones.
No relation.
Could be a mate, could be a trap.
Could be anything.
Door's unlocked, I'm going in.
Anybody here?
Drew, got a body.
Coming in.
Wait, somebody might be watching the apartment.
It's clear.
What do you got, Sam?
Dead end.
Maybe not.
I got a fake passport.
I won't take it to Yemen.
Business or coach?
Coach.
Dead guy was Freddie John Flanning.
He served time in the 90s for forgery.
Considered by many to be the go-to guy
if he needed a new identity in the paper to back it up.
Preliminary forensics puts the world at risk
of being a criminal.
I'm not a criminal.
I'm a criminal.
Let's get back it up.
Preliminary forensics puts time of death
a couple of hours before Sam Wright for meeting.
Single gunshot back of the head.
Executed.
After he delivered your fake passport.
How did Fanning get your photo?
What's taking one of those in the processing
in Ohioívell prison?
If somebody might have supplied,
or if he hacked into the prison database himself.
The question is how should a real identity
True.
But this man Fanning was a dealer in identities.
And the last identity he was dealing in was yours.
Not mine. I came for it.
Abdul wants me and Yemen.
In a few days' time, we'll lose him.
If we lose him, we'll never get to Sadat.
News out of Saudi Arabia.
Writers for Islam is demanding the release
of a dozen al-Qaeda members in prison in Riyadh.
In exchange for a Saudi hostage that they took seven days ago.
Saudis don't negotiate with terrorists.
That hostage is as good as dead.
The hostage is seven years old.
He's the son of a Saudi prince who's
a close confidant with the king.
It started, Eddie.
Words for Islam is trying to put itself on the map.
And we received an email, or at least Hakim Fayed did.
It's the name of a hotel in the capital, Sanaa,
the blue oasis that are holding a room for Hakim.
Email them back.
Thank them for their hospitality.
Tell them that Hakim is on his way.
Mr. Kalan will go as backup.
I'll shift assets in the region to Yemen
for additional support.
Ms. Bly and Mr. Deeks can focus on finding out
if Mr. Hanna's identity has been compromised.
Mr. Hanna, any evidence, no matter how slight,
that suggests that your cover's been blown,
and I want you out of there on the next possible flight.
Understood?
Understood.
Director Vance, please.
Yes?
Leon?
It's Eddie.
Are we still on speaking terms with that fellow
from the CIA who runs operations in Yemen?
Then you should send him a bottle of bourbon.
I think we're going to need him.
I'd like to know if you have any questions for Mr.
Kalan.
Mr. Kalan, I think we're going to need him.
I'll be right back.
Confirmed your alias, Mr. Kalan?
Ray Hames, a textile buyer for a department store chain.
Oh, maybe you can bring me back a nice futah.
And Sam?
All set?
Easy.
You'd prefer to send someone else.
You wouldn't?
Sam will do what needs to be done.
And nothing more, Mr. Cannon.
And if necessary, much less.
I need to know that he can walk away if that's what's required.
This is not about avenging Moe's death.
I know that.
Well, please make sure that he does.
Bright colors, Mr. Callan.
The fruiter.
Dogna
Mashallah.
We should be about to leave the mine.
He'll be at the sea at the end of the sea.
Peace be upon you.
And upon you.
Reservations.
Our team is on fire.
It's just one second, sir.
A single room for one night, is that correct, Mr. Payard?
Yes, sir.
If you don't mind, please.
It's so kind to fill all the details out here, please.
Can I have my room key, please?
409.
Of course, Mr. Haynes.
Here you go.
To the room 615.
Uh, by the way, this was left for you, sir.
Thank you.
Just that color.
Take them.
This was left for me.
Anyone in for you?
The bus boy's on someone's payroll.
He didn't miss a beat.
Guess I'm doing those after I've checked in.
There's a number to call, probably a burned cell phone.
Give it to Eric.
Or GPS tracking device.
Turn it on when you're moving.
Three clicks if you need me.
I'll only ever be two minutes away.
How long is the room butch for?
One night.
He's gonna move you.
Take it easy, Sam.
You too.
So how does it feel to be Hedy's asset in Yemen?
Dangerous.
Hedy had me back in Yemen within a week of a duel arriving.
Got some contacts here.
People inside the government who know a little more
than they're letting on about the warriors of Islam.
They'd be feeding me the intel.
Where'd you get the hardware?
Don't ask.
You got an uplink yet?
It's coming online right now.
Send that to Eric.
It's the contact number Abdul left for Sam.
What can you tell me about the boy they're holding hostage?
They chose him well.
He's the only son of one of the most powerful princes
in the Saudi government.
He was kidnapped over a week ago,
but they only went public with the abduction yesterday.
It's possible that the father kept the news quiet
to try to negotiate privately with the terrorists,
but the government won't give in to their demands.
The contacts on the ground think Sadat's behind it?
Nothing happens without Sadat's approval,
but it's more likely Abdul will plan this.
And you're sure they haven't linked forces yet?
Sure as I can be.
Abdul hasn't left the city since he arrived
and my sources are confident that if Sadat had met with him,
they'd have heard about it.
You okay?
Abdul thinks I'm dead.
The chances of me running into him are negligible,
but we can't let him go.
I only move around at night, stay out of sight during the day,
which means...
you're on the lunch run.
As-salamu alaikum.
Al-aqeem.
Wa alaikum As-salam, Abdul.
Welcome, my friend.
Is everything well?
Everything's great. I'm excited to be here.
As-salam, Aqeem.
So, where can we meet?
We could meet now.
Aqeem.
Good to see you.
You had no problems leaving America?
Well, the guy I collected my paperwork from was dead.
Yeah, that's why he demanded more than money.
Threatened to withhold your papers.
He left us no choice.
Welcome to the cause, brother.
So, what's the plans for me?
Well, to begin with,
there is no need to unpack.
We're leaving right now.
Going where?
Another hotel?
You must be patient, Aqeem.
In time,
Allah reveals everything.
Get your things.
I have a car waiting.
We have a long way to drive.
Ready?
Let's go.
Sam's on the move.
And Bill must have contacted him.
He would have warned you if he could.
Someone must be with him.
Car?
Light brown SUV in the alley behind the hotel.
Tell Eric.
Come on.
Talk to me, Eric.
Sam's GPS is coming online now.
Your SAP phone GPS puts you three and a half miles behind them.
They're headed south on Taya's road.
You're going to have to close the gap.
Yeah, I'm working on that.
Callen, Abdul is with him.
I know. I had a little problem with one of Abdul's guys.
How's Sam been compromised, Mr. Callen?
No, I don't think so.
He's a hotel employee.
He didn't have time to warn Abdul,
but he's with me.
Eric, don't lose him.
Try and not do.
Looks like they're heading south out of the city.
Sadat's rumored to be hiding out in the south of the country.
Maybe Abdul's finally going to meet his brother.
And he's bringing Sam with him.
It's not all bad, Ben.
We got a cell?
They're so interested in what direction we're traveling, Hakim.
Trying to ascertain the direction of Mecca.
It's time for noon prayer, brother.
You can be jumped out, Darik.
Al-Hang Waqt, Hamd Allah.
Shopping with Mr. Mecca.
Crossy border to Saudi Arabia, Hakim.
One day soon, maybe.
Inshallah.
You must be pleased to be back in Yemen.
To your family.
You told me in prison you had a brother.
Is it that?
He's with me wherever I trouble.
You're very proud of him.
My brother is a leader of men, Hakim.
When you meet him, you'll understand why our cause cannot fail.
We are putting into play a plan
that will show the worst the true power
of the warriors for Islam.
And a great day will come very soon.
The law of war.
Re-establish contact, Garak.
We're going to stay two minutes ahead.
Copy that.
Callan's back in the game.
Stop the car.
Hakim, call the B-boy.
The ATV.
Shoot him.
If you want me to do this, then you should trust me
and give me a loaded weapon.
Test me, Abdul.
And test everybody, Hakim.
You bust.
You failed.
Let this be a lesson to all of you
of the importance of this boy.
Ha-ha-ha.
He's now in your charge, Hakim.
Guard him with your life.
As-salaamu alaikum.
Shukr.
What is he, boy?
It's with Rafi.
I came to get him some food.
What makes this boy so valuable?
He's the son of a Saudi prince.
Not a Saudi princess. They count him by a thousand.
That's true.
But this one is a favorite,
as is his brother.
Holding him for ransom.
No, Hakim.
Not to ransom.
Prison exchange.
No.
What?
You see, Hakim.
Risu.
Go back to the boy.
Taking his food.
To not leave his side.
You said the one I would soon learn
how powerful the war is for Islam really are.
You think we measure the power of our cause
by the life of a small boy?
Didn't tell me why.
Soon, my brother.
Hakim.
Yes, me, Hakim.
You're a mayor.
Listen, a mayor.
I won't hurt you and I won't let anybody else hurt you.
You understand?
Soup and bread.
No.
If you don't need it, I will.
Let's call it.
Hmm?
What's up, Hakim?
Diet?
Ah, diet.
If anything happens, I want you to stay by my side.
You understand?
Keeping warm?
Barely.
If posted guards, counting five guys could be more.
Mr. Callan, can you confirm Mr. Hannah?
Confirmed. Abdul's with him.
Sadat?
Not yet, but it seems like they're waiting for something.
Someone.
The minute you can confirm Sadat's presence,
I want the two of you out of harm's way.
The boy is here, Hedi.
Your primary mission, Mr. Callan,
is to confirm that Sadat has joined his brother.
Not leaving without the boy.
Freddie John Fanning.
Missing something?
A suspect.
A murder weapon?
And witnesses, don't forget, witnesses are missing them.
Witnesses can be very valuable, you know?
Maybe even tell us if Sam's been compromised.
And evidence.
And a clue.
A clue would be good, too.
What we know.
Fanning is hired to forge a passport.
Check.
Fanning completes that passport and delivers it to Mr. Jones
at his short-term rental apartment.
Check.
There's a dispute over money or maybe
Jones wants to tie up loose ends.
Either way, Fanning is shot.
Fanning checks out checklist check.
We're missing something.
Check.
No, no, no, no. Deeks.
We are missing something.
Okay.
All right.
Jones works for Abdul.
Callan?
What if Abdul met with Jones
before he left for Yemen to give him Sam's details?
But Jones' apartment had only been rented out for a week.
Right.
So if Abdul did meet with Jones...
It wasn't at that apartment.
Could have been at Jones' house.
Check.
Abdul flew out to Yemen the day after he broke out of prison.
He flew out on a fake passport.
Jones must have given it to him.
Where did Abdul stay that night?
We were tracking him on Overwatch.
He stayed at the West Hollywood Motor Inn on Wilton.
A clue?
Maybe even witnesses.
It's always quiet in the middle of the week.
How quiet?
No, no bookings that night.
None?
None of one.
Nelson, he definitely stayed all night.
Maybe he shared with somebody that was already staying here.
Do you mind if I take a look?
All right.
Three guests.
Married couple from Idaho.
Married.
She was young enough to be his daughter.
Well, scratch Idaho.
Single woman from Texas.
Regular.
Same time every month.
For how long?
As long as I've owned the place.
Going on 27 years.
And scratching Texas.
What about this one?
It was occupied all week but there's no name against it.
That's not a guest.
It's a night manager, Felix.
Felix!
Cops want to have a word with you.
Witness your suspect.
Suspect.
Make that prime suspect.
Go!
Ready?
Three, two, one, go!
Scratch, Felix.
Well, for a guy that lived here for 18 months,
he sure doesn't have much to show for it.
He's got no big screen, flat plasma TV.
Peter's configured for Arabic.
No beer.
No funky, weak old clothes in the corner.
No pizza boxes.
This is very un-American.
Felix Atino.
Colombian.
That explains why he's un-American,
but not why he speaks Arabic.
This would.
You have any passport?
Look at the name.
We just found Abdul's brother.
I wonder if Sidat hasn't been seen in Yemen.
He's been here all along.
How hard is it to run a terrorist group from the other side of the world?
It's virtually impossible.
I think Sidat was a misdirect.
With this new intel, I went back and analyzed what we knew
or what we thought we knew.
I think the true leader of the group is Abdul.
And the news doesn't get any better.
Warriors for Islam have released a deadline
for the Saudis to meet their demands.
How long?
One hour.
The Saudis have already rejected a hostage exchange for the boy.
Why would Abdul think that they would change their mind?
I don't think he does.
Guys.
You better take a look at this.
I broke the password to Sidat's laptop.
Access his emails.
Count this.
Ms. Jones, how's your Arabic?
Well, looks like the emails are between Sidat
and Abdul.
Sidat was tipped off by a State Department
email to the U.S. Embassy in Yemen
of Nate's presence in Sana'a.
Sidat confirms that the attached photos were taken
a week after Abdul's escape
and after Abdul saw Nate stand by Sam.
Nate's been compromised.
Which means Sam's been compromised.
Why give Sam a fake passport
and an airline ticket to Yemen
if you know he's an undercover federal agent?
It's a trap.
A captured U.S. federal agent
is a powerful propaganda tool.
And much more leveraged than a seven-year-old boy.
Eric, I need to talk to Callan.
Ms. Bla, alert Nate.
Tell him to get the hell out of that hotel
and now get Director Vance on the phone.
We need that authority and we need it now.
Yeah, Callan's on speaker.
Mr. Callan, abort the mission.
Sam's been compromised.
Confirm, Mr. Callan.
Confirmed.
Aborting mission.
Wait.
I'll go with you.
Callan's on speaker.
Which federal agency do you work for?
NCIS.
I know of them.
Then you know it's probably best that you surrender to me now
while you still have a chance.
You know I like you, Hakim.
Sam.
I'm not going to kill you.
Yet.
But a display to your country and their foreign allies of our resolve
should be enough to bring them to the negotiating table.
Bala! Bala!
It's happened.
Bala!
Hang on!
We need that authority, Eddie.
We need it now.
Director.
Authority granted, Mr. Callan.
Green light, Sam.
Sam, green light.
Talk of pain.
I'm sorry.
Thank you, baby.
Let's go home.
I'm staying.
It's work to do in Dubai.
Or I'm on.
Eddie, I wasn't sure of which.
We'll see you around, Nate.
What?
Why'd you hesitate?
Targeting up, Dylan.
I wanted to be sure while I was squeezing the tray.
No?
No.
No?
No.
No?
No.
No?
Revenge or justice?
Justice.
By hope.
This isn't the way home.
Nope.
I promised Eddie I'd get her a futa.
Bright colors.
Better get her two.
We'll see you around.
Bye.
