NCIS: Los Angeles

I didn't think you were coming.

I had to wait for the night watch to pass.

What's up?

I don't want to be here any more.

Why?

Don't leave now; we only have six weeks left.

Think about it, no more drills,

uniforms, mess hall food until September.

I'm leaving tomorrow and I'm not coming back.

I don't belong here.

If somebody's out there, you better high-tail it

back inside here ASAP,

or I'm locking you out.

What is this?

I don't know.

Maybe it's some kind of drill?

Let's get out of here.

: You'll wake the others.

Stop!

Run, right now, go!

What the hell's going on, Hanna?

Shh!

Your return verified

the authenticity of the threat, as we speak.

Now would it be possible to send a couple field agents

out there to take a look?

Okay, I appreciate that.

Yeah.

I'll get back to you when I have more details.

What's going on?

Well, it's possible

the Keating Military Academy has been

taken over by some sort of extremist group.

Wait, Sam's son, Aiden, attends that school.

Which is the only reason we know about it.

Where are we?

Haven't heard anything else from Aiden.

You try calling him?

The Academy has a strict no cell phone policy.

He has a tablet, but he hasn't answered my e-mails or texts.

Is there any chance this is some sort of surprise

academy training exercise?

He sent a distress code only he knows.

This is no exercise.

Calls to the school are going straight to voicemail.

Check this out.

According to the Academy Web site,

they're experiencing electrical

and communications problems

that they say they'll have sorted out

in the next few hours.

Is that legit?

I don't think so.

I just checked with California Edison

and local phone companies.

Nobody has anyone up there.

Could be someone's way of buying more time,

preventing anyone from looking into it.

Why don't we just have local law enforcement swing by,

see what's going on?

I already called the FBI

field office in San Francisco

to send a couple agents out.

No, call them back.

Why?

Because if this is legit... It is!

...and we have to assume that it is,

then whoever is behind it,

they don't know that we're on to them.

We need to keep it that way

for as long as we can, or at least

until we know what we're up against.

I'll tell you what they're up against.

They're up against me.

Call off the feds.

What do you think you're gonna do?

I'm going to make sure my son is safe.

And how do you propose to do that?

I'm going there. We're going there.

We're gonna take these guys out.

We could be there in an hour.

The FBI could have people there in minutes.

Not without tipping off those inside.

We're talking about federal agents,

not some backwoods deputy sheriff.

And what happens if this goes wrong while you're in the air?

At least we have boots on the ground within an hour.

Killing me.

Where'd you come from?

Oh, I'm everywhere these days, Mr. Callen.

You should know that by now.

My son's in there, Hetty.

Along with the sons and daughters of many other

rich and important families, Mr. Hanna.

All the more reason you need us in there.

This is a job for the REACT team.

No, this is a job for the SEALs, which I am.

I attended Keating Academy, as did my father before me.

I know that place like the back of my hand,

and I'm the only one in contact with someone on the inside.

You know what? Call in the REACT team,

but in the meantime, the clock is ticking.

We need to go in there now, while it's dark,

while whoever is in there is still getting settled.

Okay, this goes south, you two... Four.

We're a team.

Team or no team, even if you go in unofficially,

this goes wrong, we're all done.

I don't care about NCIS.

I don't care about my career.

All I care about

is keeping my son and everybody else in that school safe.

I understand that, and you have my sympathy,

but you cannot turn this into a personal rescue operation.

It's a text from Aiden.

It's a video clip.

I'm gonna put it up.

Move. Keeping moving.

No talking.

That's Tahir Khaled.

Is that personal enough for you?

You! Down there! Sit!

Keep moving!

Keep quiet!

It's okay, just comply with them.

Over here. Over here.

Sit down. It's gonna be okay.

All right, just get down. Listen...

We lost our WiFi signal.

Maybe they turned it off.

We need a phone.

I'm gonna try to get to the instructor's lounge.

I'm not staying here alone.

I'm coming with you.

Okay.

Everyone has been secured in the rec hall.

And Aiden Hanna?

We're still searching for him.

What about the girl who got away from you?

So, everyone is not secured?

We will find them.

Not standing in here.

If Tahir's smart,

he'll round up all the students and staff

and secure them in one location,

probably the gym or the cafeteria.

What are the chances we'll be dealing with explosives

or guys in suicide vests?

I wouldn't put anything by Tahir.

Okay, there's gonna be a helicopter

waiting for us on the tarmac.

We will ride in from an insertion point here.

Ride?

Mountain bikes.

The chopper's gonna drop us five miles northwest

of the school to avoid any suspicion.

What are we looking at for backup?

Granger's putting together a REACT team.

Look...

I don't want local law enforcement involved

until we know what we're up against

or we run the risk of Tahir picking up the radio chatter.

We've got one shot at doing this clean.

If we lose the element of surprise, this could very easily

turn into a stand-off, and that is the last thing we want.

I don't mean to be a pessimist, but...

what if it does?

Then we make sure it doesn't.

Stay cool.

You want to say something?

I haven't heard you mention Michelle.

She and Kamran are helping out her mother

following hip surgery.

Her mom doesn't have a phone?

I just want to stay focused on the mission.

This mission involves rescuing her son.

If I tell her Aiden's in a hostage situation,

what do you think she's gonna do?

I think she's gonna be worried sick,

but she still needs to know what's happening.

She's gonna jump on a plane and try to help.

No, check that, she's gonna insist on helping,

and by helping, I mean she's gonna go in there

like a fully strapped mama bear that makes

The Punisher look like Mother Theresa.

We could use a secret weapon.

Think I should have left my family in protective custody?

I think you still need to call your wife.

I will.

When it's over.

After our son is safe.

It's dead, we need to find a cell phone.

The night watch.

They killed him, but he may still have his phone.

Okay.

Where is Aiden Hanna?

I don't know who that is.

I know you're his teacher.

Where...
