NCIS: Los Angeles

It's done. Good.

Gotta go.

What are you doing?

What does it look like I'm doing?

You don't drink tea.

No, I don't.

I'm making it for hetty.

You're making tea for hetty?

I promised her I'd try some.

"yellow mountain tribute

Chrysanthemum tea." nice.

That smells moldy.

Maybe it's supposed to smell moldy.

You think I should say something to her?

They didn't train you for that at seal school?

Yeah, escape and evade.

Hetty (singsong): Mr. Hanna.

How's our tea?

Right here, hetty.

Did you warm the pot the way I told you to?

I did.

And, uh, the water?

Fresh off the boil.

Oh, excellent.

You must never underestimate

The cardiovascular benefits

Of tea.

You'll thank me in the morning.

Mr. Callen?

I'm good.

Uh-huh, and you, uh,

You can't taste the paper?

Huh. Well, now,

Chrysanthemum tea is not chrysanthemum tea

Without wolfberries.

"wolfberries."

Now, I want you to savor that,

And consider its calming qualities,

Not to mention its health benefits.

Mmm.

It's delicious.

That phone call is for you, mr. Callen.

Director vance.

Callen.

Yes, director.

Standby.

How does she do that?

I don't know, but that's the worse tea

I've ever had in my entire life.

: Aah!

Moldy.

Got a call from the lapd.

A woman was killed in an apartment

Overlooking the marina a couple of days ago.

They found a usb micro drive

Hidden in her baseball cap.

Had a file

Filled with what looks like surveillance photos.

Different locations, different people.

Anyone we know? Yes.

You, agent callen.

Lapd ran the photos through

A facial recognition program.

Yours is the only one that got a hit.

When they identified

Your classified status, they called me.

Who was the victim?

Haven't been able to identify her yet.

Someone's been watching you, agent callen.

I need to know who.

Need to know why.

Anything you might have forgotten to tell me about?

Not that it would explain this.

Lapd's on board with us being involved in the investigation?

Full access.

I e-mailed eric their file,

Along with the contents of the flash drive.

If you find anything that links this

To you getting shot six months ago, I need to know.

Do I need to write that down for you, agent callen?

I think I get it.

Watch your back.

Eric: Low-level encryption

On a usb drive. Where do you want to start?

Uh... Paparazzi.

It's good a place as any.

That's near your old apartment in venice.

Just before I got shot.

You said you felt like you were being watched.

So they carried out surveillance,

Pinpointed your home location

And made the hit right there on the street.

Mixed angles:

Some high from upper story-level windows,

Some low at the street level.

All shot with a telephoto lens.

Over how many days, g?

Two or three.

Eric, lapd file.

Kensi: Crime scene photos of our unidentified victim.

Furniture all seems to be fold-and-carry,

So she brought it in herself.

Maybe the apartment was vacant.

Eric.

G?

That's her.

The russian girl.

Who's the russian girl?

The last person I saw before I got shot.

Eric: A lot of surveillance photos of the same guy.

Kensi: None of them very clear.

Not a great photographer, your russian girl.

Not a willing subject.

Can we find out when they were taken, eric?

Yeah, the data's embedded in the jpegs.

All right, oldest photo was taken eight days ago,

And the most recent was yesterday.

The day she died.

Long-term surveillance.

She was working for someone.

Whoever this guy is, he doesn't like having his picture taken.

Did you get enough data to get a match on his face, eric? No.

I doubt it. I mean, he's either too far away,

Partially obscured or blurry.

But I will give it a shot.

Some of the photos

Were taken at a marina.

Including the photos of her.

Her body was found in an apartment

In marina del rey, too.

Sam, kensi.

This mystery guy on the yacht--

All right, we're going to have to try to sharpen up

These photos before we run them through facial recognition.

What did I miss?

Unnamed dead russian girl who saw callen get shot.

Otherwise known as a "lead""

Callen's cold case just got warmed up.

Uh, I need access to a personnel file.

Well, in your position as our headshrinker,

You should already have complete access.

I think my file's a little out of date.

Ah. What name?

Callen.

Hmm.

Ah.

Callen.

G.

Anything in particular you're looking for?

The investigation into callen's shooting.

Mm, still unsolved.

You worried this case may open old wounds?

I'm hoping we can help heal them.

November, alpha, forward slash,

Seven, nine, four.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

You sure you want to do this?

I'm fine.

Kensi: Are you sure you're allowed to do this?

Victim investigating his own shooting?

It's not my shooting, it's a russian girl's.

He'll keep investigating until someone tells him he can't.

Someone I have to listen to. Rules me out.

You never listen to me even when you have to, g.

Name one time.

You're not listening to me now.

Yeah, I am.

No, you're not.

How long you two been married?

Thanks.

Kensi: Unfurnished.

It's on the market.

Hmm...

She was sitting here.

Back to the door.

Shooter came up from behind her.

See that blood spatter?

It starts low and then rises,

Which means she never stood up.

Excuse me.

Laptop power cable

And video lead right there.

Killer took the laptop and the video camera with him.

Missed the micro drive that was tucked away in her ball cap.

Oh, hello.

I've got three scuff marks here.

Camera was on a tripod

Right about... Here.

The angle's about right.

The guy she was watching was on one of those yachts out there.

Kensi: You know, you can't just

Camp out in an apartment without anybody knowing.

What about the apartment manager?

He says he didn't know she was here.

So where did she get a key?

Maybe she didn't have one.

She could've snuck in.

Maybe she's a pro.

No, she's not a professional.
