"I don't see how that's any of your business," Jason said.
"I'm making it my business," Gibbs said, "You had one job when you married Kellie, Morgan, and that was to make sure she stayed safe and look out for her. So where were you when she needed you?"
"Saving Carly...and Ava... from Ryan Chamberlain," Jason said.
"Carly as in Sonny Corinthos's wife?" Gibbs asked.
"Yes," Jason said, "We suspected Ryan had kidnapped her."
"Why the hell wasn't Sonny going after his own wife?" Gibbs asked, "especially with his daughter, your wife sick."
"He's out of the country on business," Jason said.
"So where were Carly's guards?" Gibbs replied, "Or is Sonny still in the habit of thinking a guard isn't necessary? Hasn't he learned his lesson with Emily Quartermaine and his son Michael already?"
Jason didn't respond.
"You're telling me Sonny didn't have guards on his wife," Gibbs said, "That could have stopped Ryan Chamberlain from kidnapping her in the first place."
Jason still didn't answer. He just stared Gibbs down.
"So let's get this straight," Gibbs said, "Your boss didn't have guards on his wife that could have least attempted to prevent her from being kidnapped or gone after her instead of you leaving your sick wife at the hospital. A sick wife whose enemy resurfaced that very day."
"I made the best decision I could at the time," Jason said, "When I left Kellie she was sitting in the hospital waiting on test results and to take more tests. At that point, Alyssa was safe at school and Alcazar was going to check on the security situation. Kellie agreed that I needed to go after Carly."
"Of course she would tell you to go after her stepmom," Gibbs said, "I also know that the minute one of Kellie's kids was in danger, she'd be the first one in line to go after them, no matter what shape she's in."
"I couldn't predict that, Lorenzo would get shot," Jason said, "He went first and her guard was with her."
"That's my point, Morgan," Gibbs said, "Things in your world, Kellie's world have the tendency to go worst scenario at any given time. You started the situation out down the guards that should have been on Carly and Kellie not at her best. The first didn't have to happen."
"That's no guarantee Ryan wouldn't have incapacitated the guards," Jason said.
"I get your point," Gibbs said, "But at least you wouldn't be asking yourself if you had done everything that could have possibly been done to prevent the situation Kellie's in now."
Fornell let himself into the house before Jason could respond, "Gibbs, you texted you had a job for me."
"Yeah, babysitting him," Gibbs said.
"How did you know he would show up here?" Fornell said, "You texted me last night."
"Lucky guess," Gibbs said, "I figured it was only a matter of time. The PCPD can only do so much if Garrett took her over state lines before turning it over to the FBI. His boss is out of the country. Garrett critically injured one guard and Lorenzo Alcazar. Morgan's short a lot of people."
"What exactly am I supposed to do?" Fornell asked.
"Simple you go where he goes," Gibbs said, "And make sure he stays of my way."
"You know you who this guy is," Fornell said, "You want me to stop a mob hitman from going after you. He's one of the best in the business."
"It should be simple enough," Jason said, "We're going to your office."
"I'm going to my office," Gibbs said, "You are staying here."
"And doing what exactly," Jason said, "Shouldn't…"
"No," Gibbs said, "You don't have clearance. Guarding Kellie when you were here before is a totally different thing than what we're talking about now. You'll stay here, do what ever it is you would do without me other than leave and then share information with my team. Fornell will make sure that information gets shared."
"You can't do that," Jason said.
"My rules remember," Gibbs said, "You don't like them there's the door."
Gibbs walked out the door.
"Is he always such a…" Jason started to ask.
"It's a terminal condition," Fornell said, "What exactly was he dressing you down for when I walked in?"
"Going after Carly and the fact that Carly didn't have any guards on her," Jason said.
"He does have a point," Fornell said.
"You're not helping," Jason said.
"I'd be more concerned if he didn't dress you down for that," Fornell said.
"For someone that doesn't seem to get along with my wife," Jason said, "He seems overly concerned about her security situation."
"Do Kellie and Gibbs get along? Barely on a good day" Fornell said, "But behind his tough hide and her feisty demeanor, they both respect each other. And Gibbs he'll do everything he can to find her. You came to the right place."
"Who exactly are you?" Jason asked.
"Tobias Fornell, private investigator and former FBI agent," Fornell said, "And you, well you're Jason Morgan. So while we wait for Gibbs, what are we doing?"
Jason took one look at Fornell and walked out the door. Fornell scrambled after him.
NCIS
Gibbs marched into NCIS.
"Gibbs we have a lead on where Esoterra may have ditched a stolen car near an airfield," Bishop said.
"Keep looking," Gibbs said, "McGee, I need you to find me everything you can on one David Henry Archer, also goes by the name of Shiloh, and he used be a contractor in the middle east for the Military."
"Kellie Corinthos asked the Director for information on this Shiloh weeks ago," McGee said, "We can't get the files. They're sealed. Majorly sealed. Unless you have something more."
Gibbs marched up to Leon's office.
"What do we need to do to get David Henry Archer's records," Gibbs asked, "McGee told me some one has sealed this records. And why did Kellie Corinthos want them?"
"Why do you need the records?" Leon asked.
"It's a hunch," Gibbs said, "Esoterra uses navy seaman and petty officers for transporting people. This Shiloh is now setting up shop in Port Charle. According to Jason Morgan, this Shiloh used to be a contractor in the middle east for the Navy. He even crossed paths with Andrew Cain. Through Cain obviously doesn't remember."
"You're going to need more than a hunch to get that file," Leon said, "Kellie asked what I could find out about the man. Seems her sister is getting in pretty deep with this Dawn of Day group, appears to do a lot of community outreach. Kellie wanted to know if he was on the up and up. When I had McGee look up the file, I was told that unless we had strong evidence tying him to a case, that file was off limits."
"What the hell did this guy do?" Gibbs asked.
"I don't know," Leon said, "He knows somebody and is apparently very concerned about anything that could tarnish the Dawn of Day image. Considering he's gone to great lengths to promote this image of peace and community service, we have to tread carefully. When did you speak to Jason Morgan?"
"In my living room this morning," Gibbs said, "I have Fornell watching him."
"Gibbs," Leon said, "He better be there of his own free will or Diane Miller will eat us alive."
"He is," Gibbs said, "He came to me for help finding Kellie."
"What exactly is your plan for helping Morgan?" Leon asked.
"Make sure he communicates information he's found and figure out how to use it legally," Gibbs said, "Like I said Fornell is with him."
"Why do I have a bad feeling about this?" Leon said, "Do you really expect Morgan to just sit on your living room couch while…."
McGee's voice interrupted on the intercom, "Director, security says some one claiming to be Jason Morgan refuses to leave until he speaks to you."
"Have Jackie go escort him up here," Leon said, hitting the button on the intercom.
"Leon, seriously," Gibbs said.
"He showed up in your living room and he's your problem," Leon said, "We're better off having him here than rogue as much I don't like the man's alleged profession."
"Put him in an interrogation room." Gibbs said, "I'm sure we can find something to hold for to keep him out of the way."
"He also might be our best shot at getting the evidence we need to get the files on Shiloh,"Leon said, "As of right now, Morgan's an asset. One I expect you to work with."
