Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : In your professional opinion, and knowing Mr. Callen as you do, do you think there's any benefit for him in this arrangement?
Nate Getz : Well, the upside is: it puts him in a home environment with someone he knows and trusts.
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : And the downside?
Nate Getz : It puts subtle pressures and strains on their relationship.
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : [Quietly] I've noticed. Mr. Hanna looks like crap.
Nate Getz : [Nate chuckles] And in the long term: it does nothing to help Callen resolve his issues of abandonment and isolation he's suffered since he was a child. He needs his own place, Hetty.
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : Don't we all?
-
Special Agent G. Callen : LAPD doesn't want to share.
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : Well, that's understandable given what transpired with Detective Traynor.
Special Agent G. Callen : Yeah, they told us to stay out of their way.
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : Then that's what you should do. Stay out their way, and find Mr. Deeks.
Special Agent G. Callen : They're not going to like it if they catch us.
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : Then don't get caught.
-
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : Mr. Callen
[Callen enters the bar]
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : I don't take kindly to being tailed.
Special Agent G. Callen : Well, I'm more of a wingman than a tail man.
-
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : You need a place to live, Mr. Callen.
Special Agent G. Callen : I'm staying at Sam's.
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : [Hetty groans] Spare rooms and office couches. Flophouse floors are not conducive to a restful sleep. And I *need* you awake. Someone's gone missing.
Special Agent G. Callen : Who?
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : Deeks.
-
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : I'll see what I can do. But I have no jurisdiction over the LAPD. They could simply tell me to bugger off.
Marty Deeks : Mmhmm.
[Deeks chucks]
Marty Deeks : Well I'd like to see them try.
-
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : Pack a bag, and your passport.
Nate Getz : I'm sorry?
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : You're needed.
Nate Getz : Needed where?
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : You'll find out when you get there. There's a C-117 leaving in 90 minutes. Transport's outside.
Nate Getz : But I - uh.
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : You did say you had no plans.
[Nate sighs]
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : Go.
Nate Getz : Going.
-
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : We were beginning to think you were dead.
Marty Deeks : Not yet... maybe tomorrow.
-
Special Agent G. Callen : Is there a military angle to any of this?
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange : No, but Detective Deeks is still the Liaison Officer with the LAPD, which makes him about as close to one of us as it gets.
