Good to meet you, Gavin.

Says you were the best pilot he ever had under his command.

- So I hear you're looking for a job.
- I've been out of the Air Force
in the last two years so
I'm looking for a way back in.
- Why the sudden interest after all this time?
- My wife and kids relocated to LA a couple of months ago
so I wanted to stay close to 'em.
That's why I felt there might be a place for me here.
I looked at your file, Gavin.
Said your plane crashed in the desert three years ago.
And that afterward you started--

- Good morning. My name is Dr. Sophia Nathan,
and I'm the chief scientist
at the Department of Homeland Security.
What we know is that today's tragedy
was a natural disaster.
The sinkhole at La Brea is the largest of its kind.
And as of this moment,
we don't know how deep it goes.
- Dr. Nathan, what about the victims?
- Are there any numbers? - No, not yet.
- Are there any plans to send a rescue mission
to locate any survivors?
Not at this time.
Unfortunately, no one could have survived that fall.
But what I can tell you is that we have
a long-range military-grade drone en route,
and we hope to have confirmation soon.
To all the families affected by this tragedy,
please know that we're thinking of each and every one of you.

Those--those birds,
I saw them in that place this morning.
And then--
then they flew out of the sinkhole.
What are you saying?
- None of it makes sense to me either,
but my gut is telling me that something is going on.
I can't let it go.
I need to talk to someone in charge.
And tell them what?
- What if there are people alive down there, Iz?

- Adam, I was wondering when you were gonna show up.
- Got the first flight out of D.C.
How's it going with the press?
