Container Ship (Crew Accounted for by FBI)

Unnamed container ship anchors off-stage as the origin point for the crew FBI agents have now fully accounted for. Nancy McNally relays this breakthrough in the Situation Room, shifting focus to detention protocols—seven days in isolation, including a well-lit room for sleep deprivation that Fitzwallace names outright. Leo probes the rules, aides listen tensely, and the vessel fuels urgent operational and ethical deliberations without direct visual or physical access.
