NCIS

Honey? You in here?

Somebody's been a busy bee this morning.

Oh, eggs and bacon. My favorite.

You sleep okay?

Oh, my neck is killing me.

So much for that water-filled pillow

my mom sent me for my birthday.

I said I was sorry.

Okay, fine.

Tonight, we can watch whatever you want.

Hmm?

Uh...

* *

I feel incredible.

That's because you're dehydrated.

And delirium is a side effect of dehydration.

Just admit it, you had fun this morning.

Okay, you were a little too sweaty for me.

Do we even want to know?

Nope.

Oh, relax.

Hot yoga. Ah.

Yikes. No, I'm with Knight: too much sweat.

I prefer baked goods.

Anybody?

Triple D's Donuts? These are always sold out.

How'd you get them? I didn't.

They're a little too mainstream for me, but...

I'm coming around.

They were here when we got in.

Aren't these donuts

triple delicious?

I got up at 5:00 a.m., waited in line

for over an hour, but, oh, it was so worth it.

Totally worth it.

And that is item number 29 crossed off my Dream Docket.

Dream Docket?

Oh, it's a list

of a hundred things I have always dreamed of doing.

Is, uh, "Riding a motorcycle" on the list?

Good eye. Riding the open road on two wheels

is number 26 on the list.

Torres, lessons start on Monday.

Okay.

And Grandmaster McGee,

you could help me with item number 30 on the list,

"Become a chess prodigy."

Prodigies are usually children.

I could be a late bloomer. Oh, speaking of blooms,

rumor has it that you just bought

a Philodendron gloriosum.

I'm gonna need a clipping. Number 12 on the list.

There are rumors about my plants?

Oh, and Knight, we're taking a falconry class

this Sunday, 6:00 a.m.

: Don't be late. Ca-caw.

That was weird.

You think maybe there's something in these donuts?

Well, we'll have to find out in the car.

Attempted murder in Waldorf. Let's roll.

All right, our stabbing victim is Logan Donohue.

He called 911, was taken to Walter Reed.

Going into surgery as we speak.

Any idea who stabbed him?

Nope. 911 operator says he was barely conscious on the call.

Hospital thinks he was stabbed

with a straight-edged instrument about four inches in length.

I'll take a paring knife for 500.

Or cooking scissors for three.

You guys don't use them?

They're a game changer.

Anyone heard from the wife?

McGEE: Lieutenant Rachel Donohue.

She was not in the house when the paramedics arrived,

and police have not been able to reach her.

Where's she stationed?

Joint Base Andrews. Hasn't reported in yet.

Hmm. Well, I'll take some blood samples,

and hopefully, none of it's hers.

All right. Early morning attack.

Nothing appears to be missing.

We looking at a kidnapping here?

More like a domestic dispute gone wrong.

I got the 4-1-1 on Donohue's wife.

The neighbor saw her drive off this morning in a hurry.

You got a time?

7:00 a.m. on the dot.

That's right after Logan called 911.

That means she was in the house when he was stabbed.

That's not a good look.

Oh, and it gets better.

The neighbor saw the lieutenant drop this in the trash

as she was leaving.

Cooking scissors.

300 points for Knight.

All right, not a kidnapping,

which means our missing wife is now our missing suspect.

Probably on the run. Anyone feeling like it's BOLO time?

McGEE: I'll talk to highway patrol,

but, um, you know, she could be a hundred miles away by now.

Whoa, whoa, ma'am. You can't come in here.

I live here. Or not.

Hey, hey. Let me in.

What are you doing in my house? Relax.

Where is my husband?

The paramedics took your husband

to the hospital after you, um...

...stabbed him?

After I what?

Logan and I have been married for almost ten years.

I would never do anything to hurt him.

We've got your prints on the assault weapon.

And Logan's blood

on your robe in the bedroom.

And this is a done deal.

And you claim that you don't remember what happened.

McGEE: Think maybe

you did stab him.

No.

Except yes, you did.

The only question now is why.

Uh, for some reason,

juries are keen on motive.

So either you can give us one now or we can wait

until your husband's out of surgery.

I already told you,

I don't even remember getting dressed this morning,

let alone what happened to Logan.

My head is killing me.

So, what do you remember?

Um...

I got home late from work last night.

I'm an aviation maintenance officer.

I'm on base right now,

but normally I'm on a carrier for half the year.

That must be hard on your marriage.

We have our problems.

Just like anyone else.

I'm away so much, and Logan's job at the FDA

keeps him pretty busy when I am back.

But our marriage is rock-solid.

Okay, so you came home late from work.

Then what?

I went to bed around 11:00 p.m.

The next thing I remember, I...

I was in my car in some parking lot.

I had no idea how I got there.

I got scared.

I drove home and then I found you standing in my kitchen.

And I saw the blood.

Oh, my God.

What if I did do this?

Have you ever blacked out before?

No, but I...

I have been having some weird health issues lately.

Describe "weird."

Bad headaches,

my skin gets cold and clammy and I feel like I'm gonna faint.

Google says it may be an anxiety disorder.

Have you seen a real doctor?

Yeah, just a few days ago, actually.

We talked and he ran a bunch of tests.

He told me to come back next week.

You mind if we have a chat with him?

I didn't really stab my husband, did I?

Come on, man. She's using us to build an insanity plea.

I don't know. The lieutenant seemed pretty rattled.

Maybe the memory loss is from PTS

or some trauma we don't know about.

I don't know, man. This just smells funny to me.

Especially that, uh, "weird health issue" thing.

Dr. Marley? NCIS Special Agents Knight, Torres.

Do you have a moment?

Just a sec. I'm in the middle of a rally.

Maybe you need to hold the badge a little higher? Mmm.

It has to do with a patient of yours

who was involved in a stabbing.

Sorry. I've been trying to beat this yahoo for a month.

Plus, I can't discuss patient information without...

Without a signed, uh, HIPAA waiver?

Bada bing.

Lieutenant Donohue.

Yeah, I remember her. How can I help?

When you examined the lieutenant,

did you notice anything unusual?

Any disorders that could cause blackouts?

Any, uh, violent outbursts?

I ran her blood, did a standard exam.

She passed with flying colors. Physically, at least.

What does that mean?

She asked me to run

a full psychological battery as well.

And her answers were...

inconsistent.

Inconsistent with what?

With any standard diagnosis.

Her responses were all over the map.

Like, maybe she was trying to, uh, fake being crazy?

"Crazy" is not a standard diagnosis.

But now that you mention it, it might explain things.
