NCIS

Midnight feedings? Dirty diapers?

I'm ready, Pop.

Nobody's ready.

Okay, fine. I'm not ready.

But I'm willing and able.

That's my boy.

Reporting for duty.

Isaac.

Where is the skywriter? He should be here by now.

Lola, I promise,

that plane is gonna spell B-O-Y.

Better spell B-O-Y, because raising a G-I-R-L is terrifying.

You've seen how my sisters turned out.

Wait, even you guys really don't know what you're having?

No, Pops. That's the point.

All right, I think that we should call the pilot

or something because we... Shh!

I hear the plane. I hear the plane!

Uh, what's that say?

It says you overpaid.

How much this set you back?

What the hell?

What is it?

I don't know, bird poop?

Oh, my God!

Get it off me!

It reeks. What is it?

Looks like some kind of...

skin or something.

From what? I don't know.

I think it's...

human.

Well, that was odd.

What was?

I just passed Curtis Hubley

down by the tech trolls,

and he was wearing an NCIS employee badge.

Curtis who? He was an outside cyber consultant

that we used on a few cases

a couple years back.

Always, uh...

always been kind of an odd guy.

Speaking of odd,

I just got a really weird message from Parker.

"It rained a body in Norfolk"?

Yeah, I got it, too.

What does it mean?

I think it means he needs to spell-check his texts.

Hey, yo.

So, does this Bandium from Parker

actually say it rained a body?

It's obviously a glitch.

Yeah, I'm thinking Parker, uh,

did the voice-to-text option

and, uh, you know, it translated incorrectly.

What would he have said that would have turned it into

"It rained a body in Norfolk"?

Maimed?

Claimed? Detained?

Good guesses but all wrong.

This time the Bandium notification

is correct.

It rained a body from the sky?

Piece by fleshy piece.

How the hell did that happen?

Damn good question.

Let's go find out.

So, other than the plane,

did you see anything else in the sky?

You mean besides the human body parts?

Yes, um, another aircraft?

Maybe a helicopter or... hot air balloon?

You think some sicko was dropping this stuff on us?

Well, we're, uh, not exactly sure

what we think yet.

Just tell us exactly what you saw.

Just the plane.

You don't think the skywriter did this, do you?

Nope. Just got off the phone with the pilot.

They record all their flights

for insurance purposes,

and he did not do this.

Did he, uh, say anything else?

Yes, actually, uh, he said that he's sorry,

that his smoke pump didn't work.

And congratulations, that it's a girl.

A baby girl.

What a blessing!

Everybody, it's a girl.

It's a girl. I'm gonna take a shower.

Yes, it's a girl.

Sorry, uh...

She was hoping for a boy.

Sweetie! It's gonna be fine.

Worst gender-reveal party ever.

Nick, I don't mean to harp, but would you please

just mind watching where you're stepping.

I'm watching, bro. Really?

Is that why we have a Torres-sized boot print

in that pile of superficial fascia?

I bet you didn't think you were gonna ask that

when you woke up this morning. Oh, gosh.

Yeah, all of this is fairly decomposed.

Several months, I would say.

We're gonna have to collect quite a bit of it

if we want any shot

at collecting a viable DNA sample.

Would a, uh, fingerprint help?

Yeah, I've worked a lot of strange cases,

but a raining body-- that takes the cake.

Yeah, well, technically, it's only body fragments.

There's a lot more out there.

Can't get grosser than this.

Kasie's analyzing that fingertip that you found as we speak.

But meanwhile, I actually found something quite interesting.

All of these flesh chunks are covered

in organic secretion.

Yep, it got grosser.

I'm afraid to ask...

what kind of organic secretion? No idea.

Just sent a sample up to Kasie to run through Mass Spec.

Speaking of Kasie, where is she?

She just sent me a text.

Did she find an ID?

All she said was, "Wine and misdemeanor,"

followed by a couple of smiley emoji faces.

"Wine and misdemeanor"?

That's what we call our Friday night get-togethers.

We listen to crime podcasts, drink a little cabernet.

Or a lot of cabernet,

but that is neither here nor there. Okay.

Out of all the podcasts we have listened to,

what's the one that stuck with you the most?

Easy. Desperately Seeking Emma.

The Radner case.

Obviously, right?

What's, uh, the Radner case?

Nick, you don't know who Sam Radner is?

He's the insurance salesman who used to have all those

really funny commercials on TV. Mm-hmm.

I don't watch TV

or listen to podcasts.

Okay, then let me do the honors.

Sam's wife Emma went missing five months ago,

and the police always thought he was involved somehow.

All circumstantial evidence pointed to him,

but they could never arrest him,

because they couldn't find Emma.

Well, now Emma has found us.

You're kidding me. Mm-hmm.

That's Emma Radner? Mm-hmm. Yep.

Well, it's some of her.

This woman deserves justice.

Oh, hear, hear.

And the good news is, we are way ahead.

We already know pretty much everything about this case.

Mm-hmm. Do you know why pieces of her

fell from the sky?

Everything except for that.

Do you know where we can find the rest of her body?

Or that.

How about cause of death?

What I meant by "everything" was...

we still have a lot of work to do.

Yeah.

Emma Radner, 34-year-old

middle school teacher from Fairfax.

She's been missing for five months.

Last seen leaving a restaurant

while yelling at her husband Sam.

Yelling about what?

Emma caught Sam liking

his ex-girlfriend's photos on Facebook.

That'll do it.

Hours later, Sam drove to Florida

on an impromptu business trip.

Never talked to his wife once while he was gone.

Well, I'm not married, but that sounds like

dog house territory.

No, that's more like "pack your bags

and find a new house" territory.

Three days later,

Sam returned home and Emma was nowhere to be found.

He told the police that he had no idea what happened to Emma.

Then he lawyered up and never spoke again.

So, you don't believe him?

No way.

And if you listened to the podcast,

you wouldn't either.

Okay, are we letting podcasts run our investigations now?

No, of course not.

But the info on this podcast is legit.

Cops even participated

to help raise awareness about Emma's disappearance.

I took a look at

the original police reports.

They, uh, always suspected foul play,

and Sam was prime suspect from day one.

He was the last person to see her alive before he left town.

And he had his truck washed and detailed
