1
00:00:14,647 --> 00:00:18,151
Come on.

2
00:00:18,218 --> 00:00:18,551
Come on.

3
00:00:22,655 --> 00:00:24,157
Oops!

4
00:00:24,224 --> 00:00:27,527
Forget it. These rocks are sharp.

5
00:00:27,594 --> 00:00:29,329
Woo!

6
00:00:58,291 --> 00:01:02,362
( loud thud ) What was that?

7
00:01:02,429 --> 00:01:03,496
What?

8
00:01:03,563 --> 00:01:07,300
Over there. That.

9
00:01:13,373 --> 00:01:14,641
Oh, my God.

10
00:01:29,189 --> 00:01:31,424
Everything she's wearing is designer.

11
00:01:31,491 --> 00:01:33,226
After Five, this season.

12
00:01:33,293 --> 00:01:35,528
She's wearing a high-end Movado watch, diamonds.

13
00:01:38,398 --> 00:01:39,232
Rules out robbery.

14
00:01:39,299 --> 00:01:43,136
CAINE: It's not exactly a diamond watch type of neighborhood though, is it?

15
00:01:43,203 --> 00:01:44,437
Well, she didn't get here willingly.

16
00:01:44,504 --> 00:01:46,539
Look at the ligature marks.

17
00:01:46,606 --> 00:01:50,176
The way her makeup's smeared, I think she's been crying.

18
00:01:50,243 --> 00:01:51,544
Did you get an ID, Alexx?

19
00:01:51,611 --> 00:01:55,181
No ID, no purse, nothing.

20
00:01:55,248 --> 00:01:57,250
Movado watches are registered.

21
00:01:57,317 --> 00:01:59,886
We find out who bought it, we might find out who she is.

22
00:01:59,953 --> 00:02:00,887
I'll check it out.

23
00:02:00,954 --> 00:02:03,323
How'd you get here, honey?

24
00:02:05,258 --> 00:02:06,459
Couple found her at 0500.

25
00:02:06,526 --> 00:02:08,394
Said she fell from the sky.

26
00:02:12,432 --> 00:02:13,867
Gets better.

27
00:02:13,933 --> 00:02:16,135
She's in rigor.

28
00:02:16,202 --> 00:02:17,604
She's in rigor in an hour?

29
00:02:17,670 --> 00:02:20,373
Fully formed.

30
00:02:22,509 --> 00:02:26,212
So, she was dead before she hit the ground.

31
00:02:26,279 --> 00:02:27,313
Body dump.

32
00:02:27,380 --> 00:02:33,319
So priority number one is for us to find the murder scene.

33
00:02:33,386 --> 00:02:37,257

I thought we called for the whole crew.

36
00:03:30,510 --> 00:03:32,445
Calleigh's in the parking structure and Eric is...

37
00:03:32,512 --> 00:03:35,715
Eric is where?

38
00:03:35,782 --> 00:03:37,984
I've paged him five times.

39
00:03:38,051 --> 00:03:39,552
No answer.

40
00:03:39,619 --> 00:03:41,321
I'll keep trying him.

41
00:03:41,387 --> 00:03:43,323
Okay, let dispatch handle it.

42
00:03:43,389 --> 00:03:45,258
You ready?

43
00:03:47,327 --> 00:03:49,295
Nails are broken and worn down.

44
00:03:52,665 --> 00:03:54,601
She's got dust all over her body.

45
00:03:54,667 --> 00:03:56,336
You got an extra lifter?

46
00:03:56,402 --> 00:03:57,770
Take all the trace you want.

47
00:03:57,837 --> 00:03:59,973
She's covered with it.

48
00:04:01,574 --> 00:04:03,743
It's even on her eyelashes.

49
00:04:07,347 --> 00:04:10,350
It's on her eyelashes, and you know what that means.

50
00:04:10,416 --> 00:04:12,418
She was in a confined space.

51
00:04:15,421 --> 00:04:16,522
I'll post her first.

52
00:04:16,589 --> 00:04:19,959
Let's get the gurney in here.

53
00:04:33,406 --> 00:04:35,475
These boots were new.

54
00:04:49,489 --> 00:04:51,290
Taking a break?

55
00:04:51,357 --> 00:04:53,359
Yeah, just hanging out.

56
00:04:53,426 --> 00:04:55,361
Did you talk to Eric?

57
00:04:55,428 --> 00:04:56,562
No, nothing.

58
00:04:56,629 --> 00:04:59,298
He's really screwing up.

59
00:04:59,365 --> 00:05:01,668
Must have a new lady friend.

60
00:05:01,734 --> 00:05:03,302
Level three...

61
00:05:03,369 --> 00:05:05,638
So we're thinking he dumped her over that rail.

62
00:05:05,705 --> 00:05:07,373
Did he leave us anything?

63
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:08,441
Any luck?

64
00:05:08,508 --> 00:05:09,275
Not really.

65
00:05:09,342 --> 00:05:14,981
There's no gated entry, so I figure the guy just drove in, got out, dumped her and left.

66
00:05:15,048 --> 00:05:17,016
What about these sealant marks?

67
00:05:19,052 --> 00:05:20,987
Well, it's too much to even bother.

68
00:05:21,054 --> 00:05:24,323
I mean, the old ones look the same as the fresh ones.

69
00:05:24,390 --> 00:05:27,627
Stuff's soft though. I got some on my boot.

70
00:05:27,694 --> 00:05:29,395
That's one way to collect evidence.

71
00:05:29,462 --> 00:05:30,496
I'll take it.

72
00:05:31,798 --> 00:05:34,434
Well, there's not much up here.

73
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:39,472
Well, you know what the textbooks say, "If you can't place the suspect at the crime scene..."

74
00:05:39,539 --> 00:05:42,075
"You place the crime scene on the suspect."

75
00:05:48,581 --> 00:05:50,116
WOODS: So far no luck on any ID.

76
00:05:50,183 --> 00:05:55,521
Her prints aren't in any database and no one matching her description has been reported missing.

77
00:05:55,588 --> 00:05:56,622
Okay, Alexx, what can you tell me?

78
00:05:56,689 --> 00:05:59,625
Cause of death is asphyxiation due to suffocation.

79
00:05:59,692 --> 00:06:01,794
From being in a confined space?

80
00:06:01,861 --> 00:06:04,430
Considered that until I washed her.

81
00:06:06,432 --> 00:06:09,402
She's got bruising on both sides of her face.

82
00:06:09,469 --> 00:06:10,436
From smothering.

83
00:06:10,503 --> 00:06:13,372
( screaming )

84
00:06:15,475 --> 00:06:16,576
Her frenulum is torn.

85
00:06:19,445 --> 00:06:21,380
Classic signs.

86
00:06:21,447 --> 00:06:22,548
Do we know what was used?

87
00:06:22,615 --> 00:06:23,549
Maybe.

88
00:06:23,616 --> 00:06:27,520
Found some plastic material on her shoulder.

89
00:06:29,522 --> 00:06:32,458
Okay.

90
00:06:32,525 --> 00:06:35,394
Bound, kept in a confined space.

91
00:06:35,461 --> 00:06:37,430
This sounds like kidnapping, Alexx.

92
00:06:37,497 --> 00:06:41,434
Seems odd to kidnap someone, then dump the body in a public place.

93
00:06:41,501 --> 00:06:44,437
Well, we are applying reason to an unreasonable act, aren't we?

94
00:06:44,504 --> 00:06:48,541
Unreasonable acts are all I see.

95
00:06:48,608 --> 00:06:49,709
Amen to that.

96
00:07:08,828 --> 00:07:10,463
Eric...

97
00:07:12,098 --> 00:07:16,536
Whoa, I bet the other guy looks worse.

98
00:07:17,837 --> 00:07:21,040
Was at the right place, wrong time.

99
00:07:21,107 --> 00:07:22,608
You okay?

100
00:07:22,675 --> 00:07:24,477
Yeah, I'm all right.

101
00:07:24,544 --> 00:07:28,514
I took a beating, but I think I found a chop shop.

102
00:07:28,581 --> 00:07:30,116
Okay, chop shop.

103
00:07:30,183 --> 00:07:32,618
I think so-- I've got to run some VIN numbers and make sure.

104
00:07:32,685 --> 00:07:37,089
Well, that explains why you weren't at the callout for the body dump.

105
00:07:37,156 --> 00:07:38,057
Yeah, sorry.

106
00:07:38,124 --> 00:07:41,460
What did Speedle and Calleigh have to say?

107
00:07:41,527 --> 00:07:44,230
I think they're just concerned about you.

108
00:07:44,297 --> 00:07:49,101
Look, is it all right if I run with this chop-shop thing?

109
00:07:49,168 --> 00:07:51,137
I would check with Auto Theft first.

110
00:07:51,204 --> 00:07:53,539
All right.

111
00:07:58,177 --> 00:08:00,112
Thank you.

112
00:08:00,179 --> 00:08:01,681
Horatio.

113
00:08:01,747 --> 00:08:02,682
Yeah?

114
00:08:02,748 --> 00:08:05,117
Well, I found who bought the victim's watch.

115
00:08:05,184 --> 00:08:06,118
Okay, let me guess.

116
00:08:06,185 --> 00:08:07,787
They don't live anywhere near Coral Reef do they?

117
00:08:07,854 --> 00:08:08,888
That's right.

118
00:08:08,955 --> 00:08:12,158
Came back to a Thomas Chandler, North Coconut Lane, Hibiscus Island.

119
00:08:12,225 --> 00:08:15,628
We just tracked him to Coconut Beach.

120
00:08:31,677 --> 00:08:34,614
Well, which one bought the watch?

121
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:35,815
Tommy.

122
00:08:38,217 --> 00:08:39,719
Meet Lieutenant Caine.

123
00:08:39,784 --> 00:08:40,720
Yeah, right lady.

124
00:08:40,785 --> 00:08:42,288
He's a cop like you're a cop?

125
00:08:42,355 --> 00:08:46,158
Let me guess, does he play the mean one?

126
00:08:46,225 --> 00:08:49,161
You're the one who bought the Movado watch, son?

127
00:08:49,228 --> 00:08:53,633
Yeah, like I told her, I gave it to my girlfriend as a birthday present. Girlfriend got a name?

128
00:08:53,699 --> 00:08:55,635
Nikki Wilcox.

129
00:08:55,701 --> 00:08:57,303
Wilcox Conglomerate, right?

130
00:08:57,370 --> 00:08:58,671
Yeah, that's right.

131
00:08:58,738 --> 00:09:00,640
Is everything okay here, Tommy?

132
00:09:00,706 --> 00:09:03,142
Yeah, just give us a minute, will you?

133
00:09:03,209 --> 00:09:05,177
Yeah, sure.

134
00:09:05,244 --> 00:09:07,246
That's my buddy Keith.

135
00:09:07,313 --> 00:09:09,315
He likes rock climbing.

136
00:09:09,382 --> 00:09:12,184
Me, I like to keep my thrills on terra firma.

137
00:09:12,251 --> 00:09:13,319
Afraid of heights.

138
00:09:13,386 --> 00:09:15,187
Interesting.

139
00:09:15,254 --> 00:09:16,789
When was the last time you saw Nikki?

140
00:09:16,856 --> 00:09:23,596
All right guys, look, I really do appreciate this, but can we jump to the next stage please?

141
00:09:23,663 --> 00:09:24,363
Next stage?

142
00:09:24,430 --> 00:09:26,198
Yeah, come on, this isn't funny.

143
00:09:26,265 --> 00:09:28,901
I would agree.

144
00:09:28,968 --> 00:09:33,339
Whoa, nice work, especially the makeup.

145
00:09:33,406 --> 00:09:34,573
I'm sorry?

146
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:36,309
The injuries, they look real.

147
00:09:36,375 --> 00:09:37,877
They are real.

148
00:09:37,944 --> 00:09:40,513
Look, enough fooling around, okay?

149
00:09:40,579 --> 00:09:44,750
Just tell me Nikki's location and I'll go rescue her, okay?

150
00:09:46,319 --> 00:09:48,988
You want to go see Nikki?

151
00:09:49,055 --> 00:09:51,724
Yeah, I do.

152
00:09:56,896 --> 00:10:01,667
( whimpering ) Oh my God-- Nikki.

153
00:10:04,403 --> 00:10:05,972
You need anything else, Horatio?

154
00:10:06,038 --> 00:10:07,873
No, Alexx, I think that'll be all.

155
00:10:07,940 --> 00:10:13,713
( sniffling ) Then I'll give you two a minute.

156
00:10:16,916 --> 00:10:19,218
This wasn't supposed to happen.

157
00:10:20,786 --> 00:10:22,922
It's not part of the game.

158
00:10:22,989 --> 00:10:26,726
It's no longer a game, is it, Tommy?

159
00:10:38,371 --> 00:10:43,809
Nikki heard this extreme kidnapping thing was... the ultimate high.

160
00:10:43,876 --> 00:10:46,312
How did she find out about it?

161
00:10:46,379 --> 00:10:49,348
Uh... Some dude in rehab.

162
00:10:49,415 --> 00:10:52,284
Said to pay this company 20 grand, and they'll arrange the whole thing.

163
00:10:52,351 --> 00:10:54,387
Do you remember the name of the company?

164
00:10:54,453 --> 00:10:56,255
"Gotcha."

165
00:10:56,322 --> 00:10:58,958
Wouldn't tell us where or when they'd grab her.

166
00:10:59,025 --> 00:11:00,693
Adds to the thrill, I guess.

167
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:02,695
When did they grab her?

168
00:11:02,762 --> 00:11:04,263
We were coming out of Fate.

169
00:11:04,330 --> 00:11:06,732
Closing the place down.

170
00:11:06,799 --> 00:11:08,434
I was still rolling.

171
00:11:08,501 --> 00:11:09,769
S-she hadn't slept in days.

172
00:11:16,909 --> 00:11:18,044
( tires screeching )

173
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:22,415
Hey!

174
00:11:25,418 --> 00:11:27,453
( tires screeching )

175
00:11:29,488 --> 00:11:32,892
Your girlfriend was so bored, she needed to get kidnapped to get excited?

176
00:11:32,958 --> 00:11:37,063
Nikki liked to push everything and everybody to the limit.

177
00:11:38,798 --> 00:11:41,300
We both did.

178
00:11:41,367 --> 00:11:44,003
Well, it sounds like somebody pushed back.

179
00:11:45,471 --> 00:11:52,445
I'm truly sorry to hear about Ms. Wilcox, and I can assure you, I was not involved.

180
00:11:52,511 --> 00:11:56,449
Well... you did kidnap her.

181
00:11:56,515 --> 00:11:59,318
At her request.

182
00:11:59,385 --> 00:12:02,822
Gotcha is for people who've tried it all and gotten bored.

183
00:12:02,888 --> 00:12:04,723
I'm just like any other...

184
00:12:04,790 --> 00:12:05,424
Drug dealer?

185
00:12:05,491 --> 00:12:06,792
Service provider.

186
00:12:06,859 --> 00:12:11,430
Except what I do is perfectly legal, and adrenaline is the purest rush there is.

187
00:12:11,497 --> 00:12:13,499
That's what I give people.

188
00:12:13,566 --> 00:12:15,501
You gave Nikki Wilcox a toe tag.

189
00:12:15,568 --> 00:12:18,070
She was in the hands of two of my best guys.

190
00:12:18,137 --> 00:12:19,271
Where are they?

191
00:12:19,338 --> 00:12:22,741
( sighs ) I don't know.

192
00:12:22,808 --> 00:12:24,743
They're independent contractors.

193
00:12:24,810 --> 00:12:28,047
All I demand is that they report to me after every stage.

194
00:12:28,114 --> 00:12:29,482
When did you lose contact with them?

195
00:12:29,548 --> 00:12:31,750
Right after the ransom stage.

196
00:12:31,817 --> 00:12:32,852
Ransom?

197
00:12:32,918 --> 00:12:38,991
We get half our fee up front and the second half as a ransom, preferably in non-sequential hundreds.

198
00:12:39,058 --> 00:12:42,361
We find that it adds realism to the rescue.

199
00:12:42,428 --> 00:12:43,996
So, who was supposed to rescue her?

200
00:12:44,063 --> 00:12:45,498
Her boyfriend, Tommy.

201
00:12:45,564 --> 00:12:47,299
The kidnapping was his gift to her.

202
00:12:47,366 --> 00:12:48,467
How thoughtful.

203
00:12:48,534 --> 00:12:50,102
Trust me, it was.

204
00:12:50,169 --> 00:12:51,504
Ever have make-up sex?

205
00:12:51,570 --> 00:12:55,307
Multiply that by a hundred and you have rescue sex.

206
00:12:55,374 --> 00:12:57,977
Except she was crying and fought for her life.

207
00:12:58,043 --> 00:12:59,979
She knew exactly what she was getting into.

208
00:13:00,045 --> 00:13:01,514
She signed a release.

209
00:13:01,580 --> 00:13:04,783
We can get that over to Questioned Documents, check it for forgery.

210
00:13:04,850 --> 00:13:08,554
Look, if you don't believe me, believe her.

211
00:13:08,621 --> 00:13:13,459
"I, the fabulous Nikki Wilcox...

212
00:13:13,526 --> 00:13:18,430
"understand that my safety and health, both mental and physical, cannot be assured."

213
00:13:18,497 --> 00:13:19,465
This is so phat.

214
00:13:19,532 --> 00:13:21,534
I know, baby.

215
00:13:22,868 --> 00:13:25,504
( smooching, moaning ) TOMMY: Okay.

216
00:13:25,571 --> 00:13:31,377
NIKKI: "And that kidnapping "is inherently dangerous and morally reprehensible."

217
00:13:33,445 --> 00:13:37,049
As you see, that clears us of all liability.

218
00:13:37,116 --> 00:13:38,951
SPEEDLE: Maybe for kidnapping.

219
00:13:39,018 --> 00:13:41,587
But not for murder.

220
00:13:42,588 --> 00:13:43,556
Horatio.

221
00:13:43,622 --> 00:13:44,823
Yes, sir.

222
00:13:47,026 --> 00:13:50,896
Your CSI, Delko, put the screws to me, but good.

223
00:13:50,963 --> 00:13:52,464
What are you talking about, Frank?

224
00:13:52,531 --> 00:13:54,466
I thought he told you about the ass-kicking.

225
00:13:54,533 --> 00:13:55,501
He did tell me about it, why?

226
00:13:55,568 --> 00:13:57,937
Then you didn't get the whole story, did you?

227
00:13:59,572 --> 00:14:01,073
I guess I didn't.

228
00:14:01,140 --> 00:14:02,474
Come on.

229
00:14:02,541 --> 00:14:03,876
Let's find Eric.

230
00:14:09,148 --> 00:14:10,616
"F" for penmanship, Delko.

231
00:14:10,683 --> 00:14:12,084
This a "Z" or a two?

232
00:14:12,151 --> 00:14:18,958
Look smart ass, I wasn't sitting behind a desk in a nice comfortable chair when I wrote this down, okay?

233
00:14:19,024 --> 00:14:21,527
Got V-2...

234
00:14:21,594 --> 00:14:23,062
2-Z.

235
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,570
All right, there are your vehicles.

236
00:14:31,637 --> 00:14:33,405
All stolen.

237
00:14:33,472 --> 00:14:34,640
My hunch was right.

238
00:14:34,707 --> 00:14:35,975
This is a chop shop.

239
00:14:36,041 --> 00:14:37,910
SW?

240
00:14:37,977 --> 00:14:39,545
Why would there be a search warrant?

241
00:14:39,612 --> 00:14:41,880
Auto Theft told me they weren't investigating the place.

242
00:14:41,947 --> 00:14:43,515
Someone was.

243
00:14:44,617 --> 00:14:45,985
Huh.

244
00:14:46,051 --> 00:14:47,987
A search warrant was issued to...

245
00:14:48,053 --> 00:14:52,024
1137 Cypress Drive.

246
00:14:52,091 --> 00:14:52,958
Do me a favor.

247
00:14:53,025 --> 00:14:54,627
Scroll down and see who the affiant is.

248
00:14:57,630 --> 00:14:59,031
Damn it.

249
00:14:59,098 --> 00:15:00,966
Frank Tripp.

250
00:15:01,033 --> 00:15:02,034
What's the big deal?

251
00:15:02,101 --> 00:15:04,570
Detective Tripp will probably thank you for helping him.

252
00:15:04,637 --> 00:15:06,672
Wanna bet?

253
00:15:08,974 --> 00:15:10,909
You first, Frank.

254
00:15:10,976 --> 00:15:12,578
I was going to bust this place.

255
00:15:12,645 --> 00:15:15,047
All right? Hold the chop shop over Hector Jones's head.

256
00:15:15,114 --> 00:15:18,450
Get him to flip on his partner behind a homicide down in Olcola.

257
00:15:18,517 --> 00:15:20,786
Now that you've conducted this illegal search, I got nothing.

258
00:15:20,853 --> 00:15:23,622
It wasn't my intention to step on your case, all right, Frank?

259
00:15:23,689 --> 00:15:27,926
I observed what I thought to be criminal activity and I gathered intel. You gathered intel?

260
00:15:27,993 --> 00:15:28,761
Yeah, gathered intel, Frank.

261
00:15:28,827 --> 00:15:30,629
What are you, Crime-Fighting Boy now?

262
00:15:30,696 --> 00:15:32,531
What were you doing there in the first place?

263
00:15:32,598 --> 00:15:33,165
Frank.

264
00:15:34,566 --> 00:15:35,634
Eric, tell me what happened.

265
00:15:35,701 --> 00:15:37,970
Nothing, I was at the wrong place at the wrong time.

266
00:15:38,037 --> 00:15:38,971
It won't happen again.

267
00:15:39,038 --> 00:15:42,708
Okay, for arguments sake, let's say we can't get Hector on the chop shop.

268
00:15:42,775 --> 00:15:44,576
What about assaulting an officer?

269
00:15:44,643 --> 00:15:45,944
Yeah, I'll testify to that.

270
00:15:46,011 --> 00:15:46,979
We're going to need more than your word.

271
00:15:47,046 --> 00:15:48,013
We're going to need some evidence.

272
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:49,648
These cuts and bruises don't count for anything?

273
00:15:49,715 --> 00:15:52,184
Only if we can prove Hector did them alone.

274
00:15:52,251 --> 00:15:56,588
Come on, guys, don't you have some sort of fancy gizmo you can prove Hector made those bruises?

275
00:15:56,655 --> 00:16:02,561
Maybe one of your blue lights or your mass spectro thingies with all the bells and whistles on them and all that crap?

276
00:16:02,628 --> 00:16:04,663
In this case, we don't, so I'm sorry.

277
00:16:04,730 --> 00:16:05,731
So, this guy walks?

278
00:16:05,798 --> 00:16:08,434
For now, Frank, until we can get something on Hector.

279
00:16:08,500 --> 00:16:10,469
All right?

280
00:16:10,536 --> 00:16:11,537
All right.

281
00:16:16,775 --> 00:16:21,547
That green plastic sheeting Alexx found wasn't from a trash bag.

282
00:16:21,613 --> 00:16:23,449
Are you sure about this?

283
00:16:23,515 --> 00:16:24,516
Mm-hmm.

284
00:16:25,517 --> 00:16:26,452
Traces of RDX?

285
00:16:26,518 --> 00:16:29,488
Mixed with petroleum and a glycerin plasticizer.

286
00:16:29,555 --> 00:16:31,457
C-4 explosives.

287
00:16:31,523 --> 00:16:33,192
Wrapper was O.D. green.

288
00:16:33,258 --> 00:16:35,160
Standard military issue.

289
00:16:35,227 --> 00:16:39,631
Yep, only problem is-- no active military bases in South Florida.

290
00:16:39,698 --> 00:16:42,701
We got an air national guard unit at Naranja.

291
00:16:43,635 --> 00:16:47,039
That's less than a mile away from where they found the body.

292
00:16:47,106 --> 00:16:49,742
A 3,000-acre ghost town.

293
00:16:49,808 --> 00:16:51,677
It's a perfect place to hide.

294
00:17:14,133 --> 00:17:17,136
After Andrew, we used these to hold the base's munitions.

295
00:17:17,202 --> 00:17:19,637
Now they're all slated to be torn down.

296
00:17:19,704 --> 00:17:23,208
This far away from the action, nobody uses them anymore.

297
00:17:26,811 --> 00:17:28,180
Well, somebody did.

298
00:17:46,698 --> 00:17:48,233
What's this, Speed?

299
00:17:48,300 --> 00:17:50,803
It's Composition Four.

300
00:17:55,307 --> 00:17:56,675
Explains the wrapper.

301
00:17:56,742 --> 00:18:00,312
Yeah, open it.

302
00:18:00,379 --> 00:18:03,849
( coughs ) And the trace on her body.

303
00:18:03,916 --> 00:18:08,287
( screaming )

304
00:18:11,857 --> 00:18:13,859
Take a look at this.

305
00:18:20,365 --> 00:18:22,701
She was trying to claw her way out.

306
00:18:24,269 --> 00:18:26,605
Yeah, I got a few hairs here, too.

307
00:18:26,672 --> 00:18:28,674
Bloody fingernail.

308
00:18:32,544 --> 00:18:33,645
Is that a tooth?

309
00:18:36,682 --> 00:18:39,251
Tooth might have DNA.

310
00:18:39,318 --> 00:18:41,653
Our victim didn't have a broken tooth.

311
00:18:43,288 --> 00:18:45,157
She must have fought back.

312
00:18:50,963 --> 00:18:51,897
Hey.

313
00:18:51,964 --> 00:18:52,898
Hey. Hey.

314
00:18:52,965 --> 00:18:54,500
You were right about the tooth.

315
00:18:54,566 --> 00:18:56,235
It didn't match our victim.

316
00:18:56,301 --> 00:18:58,770
Okay, so why are you smiling?

317
00:18:58,837 --> 00:19:02,207
Because it does match Manny Ocola.

318
00:19:02,274 --> 00:19:03,275
CODIS hit?

319
00:19:03,342 --> 00:19:06,178
He got popped for a B&E back in '97.

320
00:19:06,245 --> 00:19:08,280
Patrols are bringing him in now.

321
00:19:08,347 --> 00:19:11,884
Hey, when I left her, she was alive, right?

322
00:19:11,950 --> 00:19:14,219
And still kicking. Right, Manny?

323
00:19:14,286 --> 00:19:16,622
Isn't that how you snapped off your tooth?

324
00:19:16,688 --> 00:19:19,358
Things got out of control, didn't they?

325
00:19:23,295 --> 00:19:24,062
You know what?

326
00:19:24,129 --> 00:19:25,631
It's what she was paying for, man.

327
00:19:25,697 --> 00:19:27,566
A lot of these people, they try to escape.

328
00:19:27,633 --> 00:19:30,769
It's all part of the game, and my job's just to fight them off a little bit.

329
00:19:30,836 --> 00:19:31,637
Restrain them, you know?

330
00:19:31,703 --> 00:19:33,539
When was the last time you saw her?

331
00:19:33,605 --> 00:19:36,775
It was before we went to collect the ransom.

332
00:19:36,842 --> 00:19:38,310
But you never went back to check on her, did you?

333
00:19:38,377 --> 00:19:39,311
Hey, that's not my job.

334
00:19:39,378 --> 00:19:40,312
That's Jack's job.

335
00:19:40,379 --> 00:19:41,780
Jack being your partner.

336
00:19:41,847 --> 00:19:43,282
He kind of ran things for Gotcha.

337
00:19:43,348 --> 00:19:45,817
I'm just there to, you know, help scare 'em a little bit.

338
00:19:45,884 --> 00:19:49,855
Ms. Weber says I have this early Keitel look, you know?

339
00:19:50,923 --> 00:19:52,291
Did Jack ever go too far?

340
00:19:52,357 --> 00:19:54,293
Every kidnap victim has a safe word.

341
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,361
They say it, we're done. It's simple.

342
00:19:56,428 --> 00:19:59,264
And Nikki Wilcox never used hers, did she?

343
00:19:59,331 --> 00:20:00,966
Rich people are a little weird, you know.

344
00:20:01,033 --> 00:20:04,269
Baby-sitting spoiled kids-- it beats boosting TVs any day of the week.

345
00:20:04,336 --> 00:20:07,272
Beautiful young heiress like Nikki Wilcox?

346
00:20:07,339 --> 00:20:08,941
Not your average client.

347
00:20:09,007 --> 00:20:09,942
You kidding?

348
00:20:10,008 --> 00:20:12,644
Most of the time my victim is some pasty dude in a diaper.

349
00:20:12,711 --> 00:20:15,881
She just made things a little difficult to stay professional, you know?

350
00:20:15,948 --> 00:20:17,683
For your partner, too, right, Manny?

351
00:20:17,749 --> 00:20:19,318
Jack got me this job, all right?

352
00:20:19,384 --> 00:20:20,919
So I'm not going to speak out of school.

353
00:20:20,986 --> 00:20:22,721
Fair enough, Manny. Fair enough.

354
00:20:22,788 --> 00:20:27,793
What I do want to know, is who was supposed to contact Nikki's boyfriend to set up the rescue?

355
00:20:27,859 --> 00:20:30,929
You guys are going to have to talk to Jack about that, partner.

356
00:20:30,996 --> 00:20:33,999
Manny, you can bet the ranch on it.

357
00:20:47,980 --> 00:20:53,452
All right, so both of those fingernails that we found are liquid monomer and they've got traces of EMA.

358
00:20:53,518 --> 00:20:56,655
That's acrylic nails.

359
00:20:56,722 --> 00:20:59,358
Yeah, but that's where the similarities end.

360
00:20:59,424 --> 00:21:02,027
They both have different applications.

361
00:21:02,094 --> 00:21:04,997
DUQUESNE: One's pink and white and one's a polished French tip.

362
00:21:05,063 --> 00:21:07,332
These are different processes, they don't match.

363
00:21:07,399 --> 00:21:08,967
All right, I should have known that.

364
00:21:09,034 --> 00:21:11,903
Well, I would be scared if you did.

365
00:21:11,970 --> 00:21:16,675
You know, I'm thinking maybe her kidnappers have used this box before.

366
00:21:16,742 --> 00:21:18,410
Looks like another lady tried to get out of there.

367
00:21:18,477 --> 00:21:20,679
Or maybe tried to keep our victim in.

368
00:21:23,415 --> 00:21:24,383
Excuse me.

369
00:21:24,449 --> 00:21:26,318
Thanks.

370
00:21:26,385 --> 00:21:27,919
Hey. Hey.

371
00:21:27,986 --> 00:21:30,789
Yelina, did you find anything else about Nikki Wilcox?

372
00:21:30,856 --> 00:21:32,324
Victim was a party girl.

373
00:21:32,391 --> 00:21:34,493
Her old man's a self-made gazillionaire.

374
00:21:34,559 --> 00:21:35,727
She lived at home.

375
00:21:35,794 --> 00:21:37,663
Well, whenever she made it there.

376
00:21:37,729 --> 00:21:39,965
Then only stayed to give her dad some face time.

377
00:21:40,032 --> 00:21:41,867
Did you talk to her old man?

378
00:21:41,933 --> 00:21:43,502
I'm on my way there now.

379
00:21:50,776 --> 00:21:53,779
When was the last time you saw your daughter, Mr. Wilcox?

380
00:21:53,845 --> 00:21:57,049
We, um... mostly spoke on the phone.

381
00:21:57,115 --> 00:21:59,951
The missus saw her last.

382
00:22:00,018 --> 00:22:01,420
Celine.

383
00:22:04,790 --> 00:22:07,793
Nikki stopped by for some clothes about three nights ago.

384
00:22:07,859 --> 00:22:10,462
Had that boy Tommy with her.

385
00:22:10,529 --> 00:22:12,731
I take it he wasn't your favorite.

386
00:22:12,798 --> 00:22:15,801
Some people got no class.

387
00:22:15,867 --> 00:22:23,075
Tattoos, greasy hair, walked around with a, uh, fish hook in his lip.

388
00:22:23,141 --> 00:22:25,077
It was a lip ring, dear.

389
00:22:25,143 --> 00:22:28,480
In my time, it meant something, which wasn't very good.

390
00:22:28,547 --> 00:22:30,482
Look, Lieutenant.

391
00:22:30,549 --> 00:22:35,187
I will do anything to help you find the bastard that did this to my daughter.

392
00:22:35,253 --> 00:22:38,423
All right, does that include showing us financial records?

393
00:22:38,490 --> 00:22:40,826
I'll clear it with my lawyers.

394
00:22:40,892 --> 00:22:42,728
How about you, Mrs. Wilcox?

395
00:22:43,328 --> 00:22:46,531
She will do anything you need.

396
00:22:46,598 --> 00:22:51,536
Nicole was wild, Lieutenant, but she was a good kid.

397
00:22:51,603 --> 00:22:55,807
We all do things that we regret at 21.

398
00:22:55,874 --> 00:23:01,079
Yes, well, regret is one thing, losing your life is another.

399
00:23:13,759 --> 00:23:14,893
Hey, prize fighter.

400
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:16,027
Hey.

401
00:23:16,094 --> 00:23:17,896
More like prize punching bag.

402
00:23:17,963 --> 00:23:19,097
That's your shirt.

403
00:23:19,164 --> 00:23:21,166
Did you forget you lint brush?

404
00:23:21,233 --> 00:23:23,769
No, just looking for evidence.

405
00:23:23,835 --> 00:23:26,938
Okay, so, let me get this straight.

406
00:23:27,005 --> 00:23:31,777
You were walking by, you found a chop shop, you stopped and got into a fight.

407
00:23:31,843 --> 00:23:34,412
Not exactly.

408
00:23:39,251 --> 00:23:41,753
How old is she?

409
00:23:41,820 --> 00:23:43,922
It's not like that.

410
00:23:46,858 --> 00:23:47,859
Seriously.

411
00:23:52,564 --> 00:23:53,932
Is that yours?

412
00:24:01,072 --> 00:24:04,476
Nope. It's the bad guy's.

413
00:24:04,543 --> 00:24:05,944
It's all dried out.

414
00:24:06,011 --> 00:24:08,713
If you check the prescription, you might get something off it.

415
00:24:08,780 --> 00:24:10,849
Actually, I think I have another idea.

416
00:24:10,916 --> 00:24:14,986
Okay, well, I'm going to be doing some business in the AV lab if you need me.

417
00:24:15,053 --> 00:24:16,488
Okay.

418
00:24:19,591 --> 00:24:22,994
What'd you learn about the lifestyles of the rich and spoiled?

419
00:24:23,061 --> 00:24:24,863
That not all of them are rich.

420
00:24:24,930 --> 00:24:26,565
What do you mean, string bean?

421
00:24:26,631 --> 00:24:31,570
That watch we pulled off the victim, the one the boyfriend claimed he bought her?

422
00:24:31,636 --> 00:24:32,871
Yeah?

423
00:24:32,938 --> 00:24:34,573
Well, Nikki paid for it herself.

424
00:24:34,639 --> 00:24:38,109
Well, if you can't afford a watch, how can you dig up $20,000 for a kidnapping?

425
00:24:38,176 --> 00:24:39,477
Maybe he asked the stepmom.

426
00:24:44,182 --> 00:24:49,588
Oh, Daddy Warbucks had his wife on a pretty short leash.

427
00:24:49,654 --> 00:24:51,223
Unlimited credit card use, but no bank account.

428
00:24:51,289 --> 00:24:52,190
She didn't need it.

429
00:24:52,257 --> 00:24:54,159
Take a look at what she bought last Tuesday.

430
00:24:54,226 --> 00:24:55,760
All right.

431
00:24:55,827 --> 00:25:00,799
Oh, Luis Feraud Russian sable coat, 20 grand.

432
00:25:00,866 --> 00:25:02,834
Who needs a sable coat in Florida?

433
00:25:02,901 --> 00:25:04,569
Not her.

434
00:25:09,574 --> 00:25:12,210
Surveillance tape from the day after she bought the coat.

435
00:25:17,983 --> 00:25:20,785
She returned it for cash.

436
00:25:20,852 --> 00:25:21,953
Not just cash.

437
00:25:22,020 --> 00:25:24,556
Non-sequential $100 bills.

438
00:25:34,032 --> 00:25:36,534
So, I returned a few things.

439
00:25:36,601 --> 00:25:38,169
It's no big deal.

440
00:25:38,236 --> 00:25:42,307
It is a big deal if you used the money to kidnap his daughter and have her killed.

441
00:25:42,374 --> 00:25:43,541
That is a big deal.

442
00:25:43,608 --> 00:25:48,847
I might not have liked Nikki, but she was Hal's baby.

443
00:25:48,914 --> 00:25:51,249
And the only thing between you and his fortune.

444
00:25:51,316 --> 00:25:53,852
I don't want Hal's money.

445
00:25:53,919 --> 00:25:57,188
You want some of it, otherwise you wouldn't return everything for cash.

446
00:25:57,255 --> 00:26:06,865
I've spent ten years putting the stink of Tucworth, Alabama behind me, but I still love my family.

447
00:26:06,932 --> 00:26:11,269
I'm, uh, I'm sorry, I don't, I don't get the connection.

448
00:26:11,336 --> 00:26:14,072
That's where the money goes.

449
00:26:14,139 --> 00:26:18,810
My husband supports me, and I support them.

450
00:26:25,951 --> 00:26:26,818
Hey.

451
00:26:26,885 --> 00:26:29,220
I just checked the Wilcox financial records.

452
00:26:29,287 --> 00:26:33,191
How much does Celine Wilcox stand to make with the daughter out of the way?

453
00:26:33,258 --> 00:26:35,327
Well, that's it; it doesn't change anything.

454
00:26:35,393 --> 00:26:36,928
She's got a pre-nup?

455
00:26:36,995 --> 00:26:40,665
Airtight. In fact, she actually makes more money the longer the old guy stays alive.

456
00:26:40,732 --> 00:26:42,233
Pre-nup with an escalator clause.

457
00:26:42,300 --> 00:26:43,335
Exactly.

458
00:26:43,401 --> 00:26:44,936
If he dies today, she gets nothing.

459
00:26:45,003 --> 00:26:48,006
She gets an extra million dollars for every two years they stay together.

460
00:26:48,073 --> 00:26:50,608
So, you're saying she married for love.

461
00:26:50,675 --> 00:26:51,643
Wonders never cease.

462
00:26:51,710 --> 00:26:53,144
And we're back to square one.

463
00:26:53,211 --> 00:26:54,346
Well, not quite.

464
00:26:54,412 --> 00:26:58,083
A patrol car did pick up our lead kidnapper-- a Jack Hawkins.

465
00:26:58,149 --> 00:27:00,151
P.D.'s got him, and Speed's already down there.

466
00:27:00,218 --> 00:27:03,221
What, trying to get with a pretty girl-- now that's a crime?

467
00:27:03,288 --> 00:27:05,357
No, but killing somebody is.

468
00:27:05,423 --> 00:27:07,826
I didn't kill anybody.

469
00:27:07,892 --> 00:27:09,894
You came back after collecting the ransom...

470
00:27:19,304 --> 00:27:22,040
...but you didn't call her boyfriend right away.

471
00:27:22,107 --> 00:27:24,376
You were hoping you were going to try your luck.

472
00:27:24,442 --> 00:27:26,344
A little Stockholm Syndrome action.

473
00:27:26,411 --> 00:27:29,381
And then you tried to keep her quiet, but you didn't realize you were suffocating her.

474
00:27:29,447 --> 00:27:32,384
I know what you've been waiting for.

475
00:27:32,450 --> 00:27:34,853
Somebody knew we were there.

476
00:27:34,919 --> 00:27:36,354
That's who killed her.

477
00:27:36,421 --> 00:27:42,360
Okay, so, what you're saying is you went to get the ransom money, and that's the last time you saw Nikki alive.

478
00:27:42,427 --> 00:27:44,029
Swear on my mother.

479
00:27:44,095 --> 00:27:45,363
I'm glad I'm not her.

480
00:27:46,965 --> 00:27:48,400
Show us your shoes.

481
00:27:50,301 --> 00:27:51,703
The bottoms.

482
00:27:56,074 --> 00:28:01,980
Okay, that is the epoxy resin from the parking structure where Nikki was tossed.

483
00:28:12,223 --> 00:28:16,194
( gasping ) Okay, whoa.

484
00:28:16,261 --> 00:28:21,933
Now, if I dumped a body after its already dead, there's no crime there, right?

485
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:22,934
Go on.

486
00:28:23,001 --> 00:28:26,704
I got back to the base, and she wasn't in the box.

487
00:28:38,249 --> 00:28:41,252
So I threw her in the van.

488
00:28:41,319 --> 00:28:46,224
I knew my boss and the girl's rich-ass dad, they'd come looking for me.

489
00:28:46,291 --> 00:28:47,225
Now, I panicked.

490
00:28:47,292 --> 00:28:50,195
How did the killer get inside the warehouse?

491
00:28:50,261 --> 00:28:51,362
I don't know.

492
00:28:51,429 --> 00:28:53,998
It's a double-bolt lock.

493
00:28:54,065 --> 00:28:56,000
I have the only key.

494
00:28:57,035 --> 00:28:58,736
Sit tight.

495
00:29:03,441 --> 00:29:05,009
Do you think he's our guy?

496
00:29:05,076 --> 00:29:06,077
No, I don't.

497
00:29:06,144 --> 00:29:07,078
Why not?

498
00:29:07,145 --> 00:29:13,184
Because there was no sign of sexual assault, he got his ransom money and the game was over for him.

499
00:29:13,251 --> 00:29:15,286
Basically, he had no reason to kill her.

500
00:29:15,353 --> 00:29:17,155
And every reason to let her go.

501
00:29:17,222 --> 00:29:19,124
So what happened?

502
00:29:19,190 --> 00:29:22,127
Somewhere, somebody changed the rules of the game.

503
00:29:35,006 --> 00:29:38,309
We changed the locks and beefed up security since you were here last.

504
00:29:38,376 --> 00:29:40,478
I'll be outside if you need anything.

505
00:29:40,545 --> 00:29:41,546
Thank you, Sergeant.

506
00:29:41,613 --> 00:29:46,384
Jack mentioned that he bolt- locked the door before he left for the ransom.

507
00:29:50,255 --> 00:29:52,323
The window.

508
00:29:52,390 --> 00:29:54,325
Maybe that's our point of entry.

509
00:29:54,392 --> 00:29:57,395
Let's check it.

510
00:29:57,462 --> 00:29:59,230
There's been a recent disturbance.

511
00:29:59,297 --> 00:30:01,533
The dust is wiped away from the bottom edge.

512
00:30:01,599 --> 00:30:03,501
Can you open the window?

513
00:30:06,304 --> 00:30:07,438
Oh, yeah.

514
00:30:07,505 --> 00:30:09,240
He definitely came in through here.

515
00:30:09,307 --> 00:30:12,443
I'm going to check for prints.

516
00:30:15,313 --> 00:30:17,282
What did you get, Speed?

517
00:30:17,348 --> 00:30:18,983
Not much.

518
00:30:19,050 --> 00:30:22,387
Gravel's a lousy surface for shoe prints.

519
00:30:22,453 --> 00:30:25,123
Yes, it can be.

520
00:30:41,239 --> 00:30:44,142
There are no prints on the inside window.

521
00:30:44,209 --> 00:30:45,410
What have you got?

522
00:30:45,476 --> 00:30:51,449
I've got a blueish powdery substance right here and above the frame.

523
00:30:51,516 --> 00:30:54,085
I'll come down and check it out.

524
00:31:22,413 --> 00:31:24,449
Did you get something, Speed?

525
00:31:24,515 --> 00:31:26,584
Yeah.

526
00:31:26,651 --> 00:31:29,287
Take a look at this.

527
00:31:29,354 --> 00:31:32,390
Lipstick.

528
00:31:32,457 --> 00:31:34,392
Looks like we found our murder weapon.

529
00:31:34,459 --> 00:31:37,595
( muffled scream )

530
00:31:44,435 --> 00:31:48,640
She looked him right in the eyes when he was killing her.

531
00:31:48,706 --> 00:31:51,242
And he looked back.

532
00:31:54,379 --> 00:31:57,382
So, I'll hand-carry this plastic wrap over to DNA.

533
00:31:57,448 --> 00:32:01,519
Valera will swab it for epithelials, and then I'll check it for prints.

534
00:32:01,586 --> 00:32:04,088
Great. I'll work on the blue powder.

535
00:32:04,155 --> 00:32:06,124
Looks like it's just you and me, Sam.

536
00:32:06,190 --> 00:32:08,493
Always a pleasure.

537
00:32:19,470 --> 00:32:23,408
Appears to be some kind of chalk.

538
00:32:23,474 --> 00:32:27,412
We found small amounts of it on the side of the building of our kidnapping site.

539
00:32:28,579 --> 00:32:32,350
Let's see what the I.R. has to say.

540
00:32:42,327 --> 00:32:45,396
Magnesium carbonate and...

541
00:32:45,463 --> 00:32:47,465
silicate.

542
00:32:47,532 --> 00:32:51,202
Chalk and some sort of a drying agent.

543
00:32:51,269 --> 00:32:54,739
Yeah, these compounds are usually combined for athletes, to keep their hands dry.

544
00:32:54,806 --> 00:32:57,709
Like rock climbers?

545
00:32:57,775 --> 00:32:59,711
I was there, okay?

546
00:32:59,777 --> 00:33:01,346
You were?

547
00:33:01,412 --> 00:33:02,347
I even paid for it.

548
00:33:02,413 --> 00:33:04,649
You paid for the kidnapping?

549
00:33:04,716 --> 00:33:07,085
It's not like Tommy had any money.

550
00:33:07,151 --> 00:33:08,019
So, we're learning.

551
00:33:08,086 --> 00:33:10,121
Why would you pay for the kidnapping, Keith?

552
00:33:10,188 --> 00:33:13,424
Something to do.

553
00:33:13,491 --> 00:33:14,692
Tommy made everything fun.

554
00:33:14,759 --> 00:33:17,695
It was you that got Nikki out of that storage room, wasn't it?

555
00:33:17,762 --> 00:33:20,698
Yeah. I free-climbed through the window.

556
00:33:31,476 --> 00:33:33,411
Nikki, come with me. Come with me.

557
00:33:33,478 --> 00:33:35,380
What's going on?

558
00:33:35,446 --> 00:33:37,482
I don't get this.

559
00:33:37,548 --> 00:33:40,418
HORATIO: And then what happened?

560
00:33:40,485 --> 00:33:41,586
KEITH: I left.

561
00:33:43,254 --> 00:33:44,455
Why?

562
00:33:44,522 --> 00:33:46,157
Did something go wrong?

563
00:33:46,224 --> 00:33:47,558
Tommy went wrong.

564
00:33:47,625 --> 00:33:50,428
I was there to watch, you know-- rescue sex?

565
00:33:50,495 --> 00:33:52,397
Figured it would be all kinky.

566
00:33:57,468 --> 00:33:59,670
Tommy changed his mind.

567
00:33:59,737 --> 00:34:01,305
How did he change his mind?

568
00:34:01,372 --> 00:34:02,440
I didn't wait to find out.

569
00:34:02,507 --> 00:34:04,175
He had this crazed look in his eye.

570
00:34:04,242 --> 00:34:05,343
I got the hell out of there.

571
00:34:05,410 --> 00:34:08,545
I didn't know he was going to kill her.

572
00:34:13,384 --> 00:34:16,521
Keith's father is here with his attorney.

573
00:34:18,790 --> 00:34:20,491
I want to talk to my lawyer.

574
00:34:20,558 --> 00:34:22,560
Everything we have points to Keith, right?

575
00:34:22,627 --> 00:34:25,463
He paid for the kidnapping, he rescued Nikki, didn't he?

576
00:34:25,530 --> 00:34:26,731
But you don't think it was Keith?

577
00:34:26,797 --> 00:34:28,331
No, I don't. This is Tommy.

578
00:34:28,399 --> 00:34:29,333
Tommy Chandler.

579
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:30,435
Keith is a lightweight.

580
00:34:30,501 --> 00:34:31,335
He's a follower.

581
00:34:31,402 --> 00:34:34,304
Well, we've got enough on Keith's statement to get a warrant on Tommy's house.

582
00:34:34,371 --> 00:34:36,474
Okay, take Speed and Calleigh and let me know what you find, all right?

583
00:34:36,541 --> 00:34:37,475
Lieutenant. Yeah?

584
00:34:37,542 --> 00:34:40,311
There is a woman in the Atrium.

585
00:34:40,378 --> 00:34:41,712
She's asked to speak with you.

586
00:34:41,779 --> 00:34:43,614
Okay. Thank you.

587
00:34:45,449 --> 00:34:47,752
I'm Lieutenant Caine.

588
00:34:47,819 --> 00:34:49,554
You're Eric Delko's supervisor?

589
00:34:49,620 --> 00:34:50,755
That's correct, ma'am.

590
00:34:50,822 --> 00:34:52,757
I just came to see if Eric's all right.

591
00:34:52,824 --> 00:34:54,225
He's such a nice guy.

592
00:34:54,292 --> 00:34:55,525
Well, I would agree.

593
00:34:55,592 --> 00:34:56,726
How can I help?

594
00:34:56,793 --> 00:34:58,329
He was attacked in my yard.

595
00:35:01,599 --> 00:35:03,734
You all right?

596
00:35:03,801 --> 00:35:07,171
I took him to the hospital.

597
00:35:07,238 --> 00:35:09,440
I see.

598
00:35:09,507 --> 00:35:11,476
My home was broken into last month.

599
00:35:11,542 --> 00:35:13,377
Lived there close to five years.

600
00:35:13,444 --> 00:35:15,413
Eric was the CSI assigned to the case.

601
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:16,681
And you two became friendly?

602
00:35:16,747 --> 00:35:19,584
It's not like that.

603
00:35:19,650 --> 00:35:24,322
They stole my TV, broke my two front windows.

604
00:35:24,388 --> 00:35:28,559
Eric bought me an old TV, replaced the glass, He even took my son to a ball game.

605
00:35:28,626 --> 00:35:31,429
Yesterday he came to fix my fence.

606
00:35:31,496 --> 00:35:35,533
The kid's father died three years ago September.

607
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:36,701
It hasn't been easy.

608
00:35:38,369 --> 00:35:41,506
Well, losing somebody close can be hard, can't it?

609
00:35:41,572 --> 00:35:43,541
Eric's been so helpful.

610
00:35:43,608 --> 00:35:45,643
I just wanted you to know that.

611
00:35:45,710 --> 00:35:49,447
Maybe, maybe you can give him a medal or something?

612
00:35:49,514 --> 00:35:51,649
I'll look into it.

613
00:35:55,887 --> 00:36:01,559
So, Hector, it's time for "Let's Make A Deal."

614
00:36:01,626 --> 00:36:03,461
I'm listening.

615
00:36:03,528 --> 00:36:07,331
We found your DNA on a contact lens.

616
00:36:07,398 --> 00:36:09,734
The one you lost while you were assaulting a police officer.

617
00:36:23,414 --> 00:36:25,583
I didn't know he was a cop.

618
00:36:25,650 --> 00:36:26,417
Nice try.

619
00:36:26,484 --> 00:36:28,586
We found your prints on his badge.

620
00:36:30,821 --> 00:36:32,690
He's a cop.

621
00:36:40,431 --> 00:36:41,666
Clock's ticking, Hector.

622
00:36:41,732 --> 00:36:43,801
Okay.

623
00:36:45,536 --> 00:36:47,538
I saw Rudy Nola shoot Arnold Vega.

624
00:36:47,605 --> 00:36:48,606
I was there.

625
00:36:54,645 --> 00:36:57,515
Okay, let me take your statement.

626
00:36:57,582 --> 00:37:00,484
Maybe the state's attorney will cut you a deal.

627
00:37:07,558 --> 00:37:09,293
Hi.

628
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:10,828
Hi.

629
00:37:14,599 --> 00:37:17,568
So, what's up with the 20 minutes?

630
00:37:17,635 --> 00:37:20,404
Let's get to it.

631
00:37:20,471 --> 00:37:22,306
You want to talk about it?

632
00:37:22,373 --> 00:37:24,308
No, it's all right.

633
00:37:24,375 --> 00:37:25,443
As a friend?

634
00:37:25,509 --> 00:37:28,613
As a friend, man... drop it.

635
00:37:28,679 --> 00:37:30,514
All right.

636
00:37:34,785 --> 00:37:38,489
This is what the killer smothered her with.

637
00:37:59,777 --> 00:38:00,745
What's that?

638
00:38:02,713 --> 00:38:04,615
It's a lip print.

639
00:38:10,621 --> 00:38:13,457
On the opposite side of where the victim's lips were.

640
00:38:15,593 --> 00:38:17,628
Look at the center.

641
00:38:20,731 --> 00:38:22,600
Guy's got his lip pierced.

642
00:38:23,634 --> 00:38:29,607
Tommy, your partner Keith told us everything.

643
00:38:29,674 --> 00:38:31,609
He was the one that climbed in the window and got her.

644
00:38:31,676 --> 00:38:41,619
How do you know he didn't do it? Because we obtained a search warrant, and we entered the cottage that you rented, and we now know that you came up with the ideas while others paid for the pleasure.

645
00:38:41,686 --> 00:38:43,688
Nobody was complaining.

646
00:38:43,754 --> 00:38:49,360
I think if Nikki were alive today, she'd be complaining.

647
00:38:56,567 --> 00:38:58,869
Nikki...

648
00:38:58,936 --> 00:39:01,539
( sighs ): Nikki was a lot of fun.

649
00:39:02,573 --> 00:39:04,475
Wild.

650
00:39:04,542 --> 00:39:09,580
You know, it started off completely sexual: positions, places.

651
00:39:09,647 --> 00:39:13,584
She was even into some perversions.

652
00:39:13,651 --> 00:39:16,687
But soon, that wasn't enough.

653
00:39:16,754 --> 00:39:18,856
Soon, the sex didn't do it for me anymore.

654
00:39:18,923 --> 00:39:20,858
And then things changed.

655
00:39:20,925 --> 00:39:24,662
Yeah... but I still needed Keith.

656
00:39:42,713 --> 00:39:43,714
I'm out of here, man.

657
00:39:45,516 --> 00:39:47,384
Then he got scared and left...

658
00:39:47,451 --> 00:39:49,653
afraid of what was coming next.

659
00:39:49,720 --> 00:39:52,690
And what was coming next was murder, right?

660
00:39:52,757 --> 00:39:54,692
Eh, it's-it's funny, I...

661
00:39:54,759 --> 00:40:00,965
I really thought that the kidnapping, rescue thing would be a-a real big thrill, but after awhile, it just...

662
00:40:01,031 --> 00:40:04,568
It was boring.

663
00:40:04,635 --> 00:40:07,471
You know, ransom notes, rescues.

664
00:40:07,538 --> 00:40:15,746
This is the tearstrip from the box of plastic wrap that you used to kill her.

665
00:40:17,748 --> 00:40:19,483
Keith borrowed some plastic.

666
00:40:19,550 --> 00:40:21,652
Um, I didn't know what it was for.

667
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:22,987
Your DNA was on it.

668
00:40:23,053 --> 00:40:26,490
It's mine. I'm sure I touched it.

669
00:40:26,557 --> 00:40:27,792
Your saliva.

670
00:40:34,799 --> 00:40:39,670
Your saliva is on it, Tommy, because you kissed Nikki while you were smothering her.

671
00:40:43,541 --> 00:40:44,875
That's right.

672
00:41:07,665 --> 00:41:10,734
It was unbelievable.

673
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:18,242
You did that on purpose, hmm?

674
00:41:20,044 --> 00:41:22,613
That's what I do, Tommy...

675
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:29,620
and you made it very, very easy for me.

676
00:41:29,687 --> 00:41:38,062
I found the ultimate thrill: looking into someone's eyes as they die.

677
00:41:39,897 --> 00:41:46,737
You know, Tommy, sending a little worm like you to jail for the rest of your life...

678
00:41:46,804 --> 00:41:50,674
that will be my ultimate thrill.

679
00:42:20,371 --> 00:42:21,639
Hey.

680
00:42:21,705 --> 00:42:22,640
Hey.

681
00:42:22,706 --> 00:42:23,774
What are you working on?

682
00:42:23,841 --> 00:42:25,776
I got the Jenson lifts here.

683
00:42:25,843 --> 00:42:26,777
Trying to find a match.

684
00:42:26,844 --> 00:42:29,647
Good, listen, um...

685
00:42:29,713 --> 00:42:31,749
Angela Morton came to see me.

686
00:42:35,119 --> 00:42:36,787
So you know.

687
00:42:36,854 --> 00:42:39,790
Yeah. She's quite a beautiful woman.

688
00:42:39,857 --> 00:42:42,059
Yeah, yeah, she is.

689
00:42:42,126 --> 00:42:45,896
She's, uh, she's also been struggling to make ends meet since her husband died.

690
00:42:45,963 --> 00:42:52,336
She's got two young kids, uh, lives in a crummy neighborhood in a house that's falling apart.

691
00:42:52,403 --> 00:42:53,804
Her life was devastated.

692
00:42:53,871 --> 00:42:55,906
I, uh, wasn't looking for a date.

693
00:42:55,973 --> 00:43:01,679
I get it... but, Eric, you put yourself at risk and compromised an active investigation.

694
00:43:01,745 --> 00:43:03,314
I know...

695
00:43:03,380 --> 00:43:09,753
but... you see these people's lives shattered every day at these crime scenes, and, uh...

696
00:43:09,820 --> 00:43:12,623
catching the bad guys isn't always enough for me.

697
00:43:12,690 --> 00:43:14,625
I understand that.

698
00:43:15,426 --> 00:43:19,029
Everybody does what they have to do to cope on this job, okay?

699
00:43:19,096 --> 00:43:22,900
I just want to I help out doing whatever I can.

700
00:43:22,967 --> 00:43:32,810
But, Eric, as a rule of thumb, off-duty relationships, no matter how well intended, can be seen as a conflict of interest in court.

701
00:43:32,876 --> 00:43:34,078
You understand?

702
00:43:34,144 --> 00:43:37,848
Yeah, but, uh...

703
00:43:37,915 --> 00:43:40,017
how do you suggest I walk that line?

704
00:43:40,084 --> 00:43:42,353
Carefully.

705
00:43:43,921 --> 00:43:45,022
Eric...

706
00:43:45,089 --> 00:43:50,894
if we want to be effective in this job, we have to survive, too.

707
