NCIS: Hawai'i

Previously on NCIS: Hawai'i...

Sam Hanna, what are you doing here?

Waiting for you.

Are you staying in Hawai'i long? Depends.

On? Tennant.

I'm mostly here to make sure she's solid.

We're dealing with an internal matter.

Anything to do with the dead WITSEC witness

on Waikiki Beach?

The U.S. Marshals' information.

They don't have a leak. They have a flood.

So you're saying our entire database was breached?

What if it's not the intel from the breach

that our suspects care about?

What would they care about? Prisoner transfer.

Marshals are moving them for security.

Listen, I need you to get the pilot

to turn the plane around now.

What the hell?

Crichton, are you there?

TENNANT (over phone): Crichton. Are you with me?

I'm here. I'm just... a little shaken.

Second crash landing in a year.

Yeah. Maybe flying's not for me.

Are you okay?

Hit my head when we crashed. But I'm all right.

Give me the sitrep.

I got two injured marshals, and we're gathering the convicts

in the rear for evacuation.

Flight crew's securing the cockpit.

Was this just a crash or...

Probably not, but we're on our way.

Coast Guard's pushing out in...

Five to ten. Five to ten.

We good to go?

Locked and loaded. Let's roll.

We're boarding now, Crichton. Stay on the line.

What the hell was that?

What's happening?

You there?

Crichton?

Crichton!

Make any kind of sound if you can.

They could be hunkered down.

It's been five minutes.

Pike, how long until we make contact?

We're making our approach. Moments away.

Any luck raising the cockpit?

We got nothing.

Plane's comms are still jammed.

Is that even possible?

As possible as taking a perfectly good airplane

out of the sky for no apparent reason.

You're going in blind.

We don't know if the suspects are

still on the plane or how many there are.

Yeah, but we do know

you've got 12 convicted felons on the manifest.

Most of them violent offenders.

This is the United States Coast Guard.

We are boarding the plane.

Put your weapons down and your hands in the air.

Crichton? Hey, hey, hey, hey.

What happened?

They blew off the main cabin door and breached.

They had smoke grenades and automatic weapons.

How many casualties?

All of us.

M-Martinez is bad.

A couple rounds missed his body armor.

And the other guys... I don't know. Doc.

Hey, hey.

You can put the shotgun down now. Okay?

Come on, come.

What else can you tell us about the suspects?

Not much. I mean, there were four, maybe five.

They knew exactly what they were doing.

Could be military. Why would you say that?

They were moving with precision, laying down covering fire.

Small squad tactics.

Total focus on their objective.

They wanted one of the prisoners.

Any idea which one?

No. Th-The attackers were laying down covering fire.

Th-The convicts rushed the door.

There was, there was too much smoke in here

to see what happened when they got here.

I-I wish I had more for you to... Hey.

You did good, okay?

Thank you.

All five marshals are wounded. No fatalities.

What about the crew?

Pilot and copilot were

locked in the cockpit the whole time.

And the convicts?

Gone.

Emergency protocol following a crash landing.

The convicts were unshackled,

given life vests, and prepared for evacuation.

And when the shooting started, they evacuated themselves.

All except him.

Jaxon Kekoa,

currently serving 30 years for,

among other felonies, hijacking an airplane.

Aloha.

Aloha, Mr. Kekoa.

You want to tell us what happened here?

Where do I start?

Maybe the part where the plane was taken down

and gunmen abducted one of your friends.

I got no friends here. Maybe not.

But you do have a history of violence.

And you did try to hijack a plane. Yeah.

In 1995.

Look where it got me.

Saying you had nothing to do with this mess?

Considering I'm the only one who stuck around,

I'd say that's obvious.

Why don't you just tell us what you saw?

I don't think so.

What do you mean you don't think so?

I don't endorse what happened,

but it's not my mess to clean up.

Five marshals were shot here.

Sounds like a you problem.

We can make it a you problem.

Listen, take Mr. Kekoa back to NCIS.

All right? Get the marshals and flight crew to safety.

There were 12 convicts on this plane,

and we only have custody of one.

And we got to find the other 11.

And the men who broke 'em out.

Before anyone else gets hurt.

As of 1100 hours,

ten of the most dangerous convicts housed

in the Hawai'i Federal Penitentiary have escaped

their transport plane and are likely somewhere on Oahu.

Almost all of the remaining fugitives are violent offenders.

We're talking armed robbery,

aggravated assault, kidnapping, murder.

Those are just the highlights.

Eight men. Two women.

For now, our sole mission is to find them

and bring them back into custody as soon as possible.

We're splitting into teams to focus

on individual targets for apprehension.

Grab your assignment

from the marshals and get to work.

But remember...

be careful.

Each of these convicts is desperate.

Oh, hey.

Y'all, uh, partnering up?

Yeah. Pike, Kai and I are going after the, uh, Gant cousins.

Ooh.

Lydia, Gil and Hammond.

They're all serving life for a series

of home invasions across the country.

They call themselves the Gang of Three.

They got a nickname? Yeah.

But they're no match for the Three Musketeers.

Nope.

Y'all got a nickname, too?

We do not. Mm-hmm.

Oh, these suspects seem pretty vicious.

Yeah. Ended up in a gun battle with the FBI

when they were finally arrested.

Bad news.

Yeah, but they're easy to find, too.

Sticking together in their orange jumpsuits and all.

Kate, these guys are going after violent cousins

who have a nickname.

That's cool.

Who'd we get? Uh, Milton Blanc.

Milton Blanc. Sounds intriguing.

Some kind of a serial killer?

No. An arsonist.

Mm. Part of a fringe terrorist cell?

Part of the U.S. Postal Service.

Until he burned down a mail distribution center.

Must have, uh, put up quite a fight

when he was getting arrested, though, right?

He turned himself in.

Nice.

Maybe you don't even have to go into the field.

Yeah, he might just turn up here.

Well...

This blows. Get us another one.

I don't think it works like that. Come on.

We're the Dynamic Duo. Thelma and Louise.

Two badass gals with guns.

This Milton guy's beneath us.

Lucy. They're all important fugitives.

Fine. I will do it myself.

You get who you get and you don't get upset.

Yep. Got it, boss.

We're all over Milton the polite arsonist.

Please and thank you.

Sam, you missed our big meeting.

Oh, I got the gist.
