Bullpen.

Deek's phone rang. It was Sam calling from Hawaii.

'Hey big guy, how's it going?' He asked.

'Pretty good. Any new info for me?' Sam replied.

'Not much. Thanks to some very thorough digging, we uncovered a name of someone who might be of help to where Hetty is. Sending you the info now.'

Ping!

'Thanks! At least he's close by. How's everyone else doing?'

'Well, I tried and ultimately failed at getting Kensi to stop working. She's up in OPS right now with Fatima and Roundtree combing through recent data we got, Nell and her team searched an old hotel that Hetty may have used as a safe house for clues. Callen seemed okay, but I could sense worry. Just how big was that fight between him and Hetty anyway?' Deeks asked.

'He said he just yelled at her and took off before she could say anything, and when he went to talk to her that evening, she had already left.' Sam replied.

'Oh yikes. And they haven't spoken since?'

'No way of reaching her.'

'Man, your last words to someone should never be a fight. Not that I'm saying that we won't find her, but man. Not knowing if you'll ever get the chance to say you're sorry is a horrible feeling.' Deeks said with sympathy.

'Hate to ask, but how is Kilbride doing these days?'

'Oh you know, still thinks we're all out of our minds and that we'll all get ourselves killed before we find her. But on the bright side, he's spending a lot of time with his son, so he doesn't bug us much.'

'That's good. Say, if you and Kensi ever need baby advice, just let me know.' Sam said

'Gotcha. And here's hoping we find Hetty soon. You wouldn't happen to know if she's hiding out somewhere on that island of yours, eh?'

'If I did, I would've already found her.'

'Worth a shot.' Deeks replied. 'Well, take care of yourself. And try not to come up with too many silly excuses as to why you're there.'

'Just have to hope anyone doesn't figure it out before we find her.'
