Why are you doing this ?

Horatio ?

Hang on a second, Frank.

You got to see this.

- Pop that trunk, will you ?
- Yeah.

Interesting use of cargo space.

That would explain why
our driver was moving so fast.

One thing is for sure,
she was hauling ass.

Yes, Frank.

A dead body

can have that effect on you.

Hey.

Anything on our vics ?

The guy in the trunk is a John Doe.

What about the driver ?

Her license says her name's Angela
Ross. I've got tripp running it.

H. wants a reconstruction
of this, but

There's no way cause there's
a whole lot left to work with.

I think she was hit by another car.

What gives you that ?

There's a collapsed
rear quarter panel.

It's inconsistent
with this accident.

We're going to need as much
crash data as we can get.

And unfortunately, at 6:00 a.m.,

there aren't any witnesses.

No witnesses, huh ?

You sure about that ?

What do you mean ?

Check it out.
There's a traffic camera.

Traffic cameras
take pictures of speeders.

Maybe it caught
something worth seeing.

That's good.

Check it out.

Any id yet on the guy
from the trunk ?

Nada.

All right. What do we have ?

Looking at strangulation.

And there's a gash on his side
that caused loss of blood.

Now, I'm thinking it's postmortem.

- But I'll know more at the post.
- All right. Anything else ?

There was one interesting thing.

Baby boy has red dye
on both his hands.

Any theories ?

Working on it.

Let me guess.
You'll know more at the post.

Always do.

Hey, Alexx,

what's your take on Angela Ross,
our female driver ?

Well...

Eyes are clear.

Her pallor's good.

I think she was definitely
into something hinky.

I'm just waiting for tox
to tell me more.

She didn't have any track marks.

Body weight is normal.

No sign of hep or other diseases.

Meaning ?

There is the look they have
when they hit my table.

The bad ones.

This one

she didn't have that look.

She was speeding out of town
at sunup with a... huh...

with a body in her trunk.

You asked my opinion.

I'll tell you mine.

I think she was up to no good.

If she was, Ryan,

let her tell us.

Hey, Calleigh.

Hey.

I sent a patrol unit out to
our female driver's address.

- And. What'd you find ?
- Vacant lot.

Really ?

- Angela's ID was a fake ?
- Yeah.

Our girl just became a Jane Doe.

So, we don't have an ID
on either victim.

No.

- So, what's next ?
- Run with what we've got.

Red ink, white fibers
from the guy in the trunk.

Okay.

Anything yet ?

Yeah, these fibers you called about
they're all over the trunk.

0% sheepskin wool,
with a chromium wash.

Mm. Seat covers.

Exactly. Trace confirmed it.

Well, maybe they were on
john doe's body

when he was dumped in the trunk.

What are you thinking ?

I'm still thinking that this supports
my second car theory.

Come here.

There's damage here in
the quarter panel and bumper.

She did impacted at over 60 miles
per hour. It could have happened then.

Well, there's also paint transfer.

Now, it could be incidental,
or it could be road rage.

What about the body in the trunk ?

I didn't say
it wasn't a strange case.

We need to get these paint samples
to trace, have them analyzed.

Every paint has
a distinct signature, so...

We find the collision car,
we find a witness.

That's right.

Or a murder suspect.

So, you got something.

I certainly did.

Victim's car is a
silver frost metallic.

Gray base coat,
ultragloss sealer.

Okay, what about
the other sample ?

Arctic silver metallic,
zinc chromium primer.

A second car.

She was run off the road.

Alright, let's plug into
the automotive paint database

and see what we come up with.

Porsche Boxster 986.

3.2 liter, 0 horsepower.
Sweet ride.

Yup. I'll put the word out.

We're looking for an
arctic silver boxster.

That look silver to you, Eric ?

Yeah, as silver as a new dime.

Yes. Front end damage, too.

It's consistent with the collision
damage on the victim's car.

Sheepskin seat covers.

Yeah, just like
the fibers on our john doe.

Did you get something ?

Yeah.

Rental contract.

Sunstar rents.

"The car of your dreams,
weekend rates."

The question is,
whose dream is it, Eric ?

His name's Russell Miller.

Staying at the Copper Palms
Hotel on Collins.

Interesting.
Call the Copper Palms

and tell them to hang on
to our dreamer.

Mr. Miller ?

Yeah, I'm Russell miller.

What can I do for you ?

A car rented in your name

was involved in a traffic
incident this morning.

What kind of incident ?

Man was found dead in a trunk.

Well, I valeted my car last night.

I've been in a seminar all morning.

You recognize that man ?

Never seen him before.

Material from your seat cover
was found on his clothing.

Yes, it was, and there was ink
on his hands, just like the ink

on your shirt right now, Mr. Miller.

All right.

All right, look.

They guy's name is Luis.

He's a valet here.

He set me up with a girl.

You know, for a fee.

Car jockey was also a pimp ?

We agreed on a price.

Then he wanted more money.

I refused.

We had a fight.

You had a fight ?

Where did the fight take place ?

In the car.

We agreed on a price !

That was for her.

This is for my cut.

You don't get a cut.

Either I do, or you do.

Look, I...
I'm a married man.

This could be very bad for me.

Not as bad, Mr. Miller,
as it was for Luis.

Put him in the car, please.

You think the hooker
might be our missing driver ?

If she exists at all, frank.

Pimps usually sleep
with their employees.

Yes, they do.

Alexx, let's run a sexual
activity kit on our john doe.

Thank you.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Where's Valera ?

She had a meeting at
the State Attorney's office.

The State Attorney ?

You know why ?

Don't know,
but you're stuck with me.

Oh... Well, since I am,
let me bounce something off you.

You know that Luis Reyes
weighed 160 pounds, right ?

Right.

And Russell Miller says that some

mystery hooker

tossed him in the trunk of a car.

And you're wondering
how she did it.

I'm wondering
if she even exists.

She does not.

Here's the results
of Valera's test swabs.

DNA, on his privates was male.

There was no hooker.

It was just Russell.

I'll tell Horatio.

We found male DNA on Luis,

south of the border.

We think it might be yours.

What do you mean ?

You killed Luis,

put him in the trunk of the car,
and then walked away.

He was blackmailing me.

Blackmailing you how ?

Okay, truth.

We had sex.

Just a one-time thing.

Then he threatened
to tell my wife.

Give me $500, closet boy,
and it all goes away.

What happens if I don't ?

Then I pay a visit to your wife.

Tell her that the man
of the house is not so manly.

You can't do that.

Watch me, ****.

That lady...

That lady drove by
at just the wrong time.

She saw it all.

And you ran her off the road.

I did what I had to do.

I made a mistake.

I know it's wrong.

I tried to hide
my guilt. I just...

I thought, somehow,
it might just go away.

But it didn't go away,
did it, Russell ?

Speaking of which, Frank,

read him his rights.

You have the right
to remain silent.

Anything you say can and will be
used against you in a court of law.

Alexx, what did you get ?

That the man
from the collision car ?

Yes, and he just admitted
to strangling Luis.

I just finished my post.

Our lady driver
was killed after the crash.

After the crash ?

- Where does that leave us ?
- Where does that leave us ?

We've got one killer in custody

and one on the loose.

This homicide was buried
deep within the trauma.

Now, these are the injuries
she sustained in the crash.

The fractures radiate

outward from the point of impact,
to the back of her skull,

and that's where things get weird.

Instead of a radial fracture,
I found a compression,

which couldn't have been caused

by anything her head
hit in the accident.

So she was hit her in
the back of the head.

With something other than a fist.

Ah,what do you think
the weapon was, Alexx ?

Horatio, I don't know.

I'm going to have to shave
her head and cast it to determine.

Okay, and we need
to go back to the car.

So this time,
we approach it from the front.

That's right,
from the front,

where the killer must have stood.

This door was shut when
you got to the scene, right ?

Yeah, the window was blown out,

and access to the door
was blocked by a tree.

So the killer had to reach
in through the windshield.

All windshields are made up
of two pieces of glass

held together in the middle
by a layer of lyvinyl butyral.

It acts as an adhesive.

When her head hit the windshield,

it blew through this layer...

but it wouldn't have
been peeled out and

curled around like this.

Someone peeled it back.

Rescue ?

N o.

No, rescue never touched the glass,

but whoever did might have left
some prints or some other trace.

I've got a diamond.

You sure it's not a
piece of broken glass ?

Polished, precision-cut.

If it fell out of its setting,
it could be part of a larger piece.

There was no mention of Angela
wearing a necklace or ring.

Maybe the killer took it.

Maybe we just got motive.

Checking out the carat weight ?

Carat weight is its value
in the real world, my friend.

I'm checking out its value to us.

Which is ?

The girdle.

Excuse me ?

On a diamond,
the girdle is the rim

that's formed at
the top of the stone,

and that's where
they place the DIA number.

Right: Diamond Index of America.

They registeall
the high-quality diamonds.

They inscribe across
the diamond with a laser.

So our diamond is registered ?

Yep, and the DIA will tell us
exactly who the rightful owner is.

Hello,

welcome to Fieldcrest Jewelers.

I'm Chris Kaiser.

Is there something
I can help you find ?

Actually, yes.

Big day coming up
for both of you, hmm ?

No, we're with the crime lab.

Oh. Is everything okay ?

Yeah, we're actually
looking for the rest of this.

Uh, yes, it seems to be a diamond
from a piece that was stolen la night.

Afsana necklace,

it's worth $4 million $.

Do you know this woman ?

Yeah, that's Barbara.

You're certain that
her name is Barbara ?

It's not Angela ?

No, Barbara.

Barbara Sommers.
She works here.

At least we know who she is.

Yeah,but not why
she changed her identity ?

I'm sorry, but why
are you asking about her ?

Do you think she's the one
that stole the necklace ?

She was killed this morning.

What ?

We think she was murdered.

That's impossible, I mean...

She was one of the nicest people.

Who would do something like that ?

We were actually hoping
that you might have an idea.

No, um, she really kept to herself.

The necklace,
I have to ask: did you...

No,

but now that we know what it is,
we'll alert the local pawn shops.

They'll be on the lookout.

Ah. Thank you.

If there's anything else
I can do to help...

Ah, actually, huh...
do you have Barbara's address.

Sure.

This is where the jewelry
store owner says she lived.

Somebody kicked the pet door in.

Yes, let's...

let's get that to the lab.

Did you see that ?

Yeah.

Hold off on that a second.

Hold off.

Hey, Danny ?

Danny ?

Danny ?

Danny, you can come out. It's safe.

Are you okay ?

Okay.

Is there anyone else here, Danny ?

No.

Okay, where's your dad ?

Heaven.

Your dad's in heaven.

Okay, Danny,

I am a police officer,

and it is safe to come out.

I want you to take my hand.

Danny.

Come on, pal.

Good man.

Come on.

That the victim's son
with the social worker ?

Yes, and he is terrified to talk.

Abused ?

Possibly.

Mother's a jewel thief and

father's dead
That will screw up a kid.

Yes, that will do it.

Ma'am, how's he doing ?

I told him about his mother.

He's processing.

Okay.

Looks like he's been
trained to remain silent.

Seems like it.

So he's afraid
of telling the truth ?

It's possible.

Fear levels off the chart.

We can't tell why.

This is going to be
a difficult case.

Thank you, ma'am.

Thanks, Lieutenant.

Miss Boa vista...

are you okay ?

Yeah.

No, I'm fine

Alexx, the casts.

- On Barbara ?
- Yeah.

Was on my way down to start.

Okay, I want you to hold off
so we can fluoroscope the body.

Looking for anything special ?

I am, but I don't want to lead you.

Keeps it interesting.
Give me 30 minutes.

Got it.

got a hit on the windshield ?

Well, we're getting there.

Lucky to get anything at all.

Luck had nothing to do with it.

Howard Benchley :

One DUI, live in michigan.

Let's find out what
brought him to Miami.

Let's do that.

What are you doing
in Miami, Mr. Benchley ?

Been a long winter in Detroit.

Thought I'd get a little Miami sun.

But you're on probation.

I reported my whereabouts to my PO.

That's how you found me.

How did your fingerprints get on
Barbara Sommers' windshield ?

That's her name ?

Poor lady.

Answer the question, Mr. Benchley.

I was on my way back
from the Mikasuki Casino.

Saw a car sitting there,
so I pulled over to help.

Are you okay ?

She was dead.

So I called it in.

But didn't hang around.

Didn't see the point.

Or you were drunk when
you were leaving the casino.

Come on.

This long after ?

Breathalyzer won't
register anything.

Look, there was
nothing I could do.

Really ?

'Cause y could have killed her
and stolen a $4 million necklace.

Do I look like a guy that
just came into a fortune ?

I don't know, Mr. Benchley.

But you don't look
like a guy who's innocent.

Hey, Natalia.

Hey.

Hey, how's the case going
with the lady from the crash ?

I hear you guys are stuck.

Yore hearing a lot of things,
aren't you ?

Yeah. No, no, I get it
that there's a mole in the lab,

and I'm the new girl,
so it must be me.

You're right.

It's silly.

Let's start over, okay ?

The case is weird.

Barbara Sommers.

Well, if that's even her name.

Her kid won't talk.

Her identity keeps changing.

She stole this necklace,
and someone killed her.

Maybe her past caught up with her.

What does that mean ?

Nothing, it's just...

you know, some people

have secret lives.

What kind of secret lives ?

I've already said enough, okay ?

Just try to think of her as a person.

Hey, wait a minute.

You know something
you're not saying ?

No.

You know,
you say something like this,

and you tell me you're not the mole,
and I'm supposed to believe that.

I need to know the truth.

You know what ?

Forget I tried to help.

So, what do we got ?

I processed the pet door
from Barbara Sommers' place.

Okay, what'd you find ?

Nothing significant,
except this.

Is that some kind of
metal shavings ?

Yeah, and these are the SEM results.

Okay.

It's... 92.5% silver,
7.5% copper alloy.

I recognize this.

It's the properties of
sterling silver.

Sterling silver shavings.

Makes perfect sense.

From the pet door ?
What's that mean ?

It means that our jewelry
store manager's lying.

You do engraving
at the store, don't you ?

Is that against the law ?

We found sterling silver
residue inside barbara's house.

She worked at a jewelry store.

As a clerk.

Okay.

Okay, so I went looking
for the necklace.

But that's all.

Were you going to hock it yourself ?

No.

Don't lie to me, Chris.

I'm telling the truth.

I was in a jam either way.

Why ?

I hired the girl
who ripped the store off.

We're insured,
but it still looks bad.

I lose my job.

I just got promoted to manager.

I didn't kill her, I swear.

It's a $4 million necklace, Chris.

People have killed for less.

Why didn't you report the thef
when you first discovered it ?

I told you,
she was my hire.

It was on me.

So you were going
to find it yourself.

You bitch, open the door !

I've already called
the police, Chris.

I know you got it !

I know you took that necklace,
and you're giving it back !

You bitch !

It was my only option.

I have one thing to say to you.

If you had reported it missing,

then Barbara Sommers
might still be alive.

And no necklace is worth that.

I downloaded the images
from the traffic cam.

Your victim's car.

God, what's she doing, 90,100 ?

She's moving for sure.

Wait a second.
She's heading north.

So ?

The accident happened in the southund lane.

I was wrong.

I think our victim might
have had a conscience.

I fluoroscoped the body, Horatio.
What I found made me sick.

I don't blame you, Alexx.

This is abuse.

Ribs, nose, fingers,

arms, ankles, soup to nuts.

I counted 14 breaks,

and it couldn't have come from
the crash because they've all healed.

Beaten to within an inch of her life.

For years, judging from
the density of the knitted bone.

This is why she was running,
and this is why the boy won't talk.

Lieutenant.

Natalia, Eric said you may have
info on this case,

and it's possible that
she's part of an organization,

an underground organization
that protects abused women.

I think she is.
I belong to the same thing.

I'm sorry ?

It's an organization that
prides itself on its anonymity.

But I think I can help.

Okay.

This is obviously a big decision for you.
Why don't you take some time with it ?

Give me an hour.

I'm going to call
some of my contacts.

They're spread out everywhere,
it's like a big family.

I understand.

Thank you.

Horatio, we've got someone
trying to move the necklace.

Frank, I'm on my way.

Let me go !

Pawning property isn't illegal.

It is when it's stolen.

Look, I found it.

Found it at a murder scene.
That could make you an accessory.

So you want to take
the question again ?

I was on my way back
into town from Biscayne.

I came up on this wreck.
She was already dead

So what are you,
a roadkill pirate ?

I called in the accident.
That's got to count for something.

What counts is your rap sheet.

We've got you
on a string of robberies :

Wallet from a pedestrian
in a hit-and-run,

CD player from another crash,

set of water skis off an SUV
that broke down on highway 1.

I need you to tell me
what you saw at the wreck site.

Okay.

Just before I stopped,
a car was pulling away.

A silver car,
like a sports car ?

No, it was big,
like a truck. Big.

Like an SUV ?

The sun was in my eyes, but, yes,

like an SUV.
Can I go now ?

Let me see.
How can I put this ?

No. Officer,
hang on to her for a second.

Frank, I've got to take this.

- Ms. Boa vista ?
- Lieutenant.

Did you get something ?

Yes, Barbara Sommers' married name.

It's Benchley.

- Ms. Benchley.
- Does that mean anything ?

That means that Howard Benchley
drives an SUV.

Howard, you neglected to tell us
that Barbara is your ex-wife.

Didn't seem pertinent.

You honestly expect
us to believe that ?

Look.

I hate the fact that
she was ever my wife.

So I guess I block it out
when talking about her.

Yes, and yet you came...

you came to Miami to see her.

No, not her.

Danny. My son.

Then what were you doing
following her ?

Trying to get some dirt.
Regain custody.

She's the crazy one.

Yes, and now she's the dead one, Howard,
so, mission accomplished for you.

I didn't kill her.

Everything's coming up roses
for you, isn't it, Howard ?

Why don't you think about
it in holding for a while.

Let's go.

Guy's cagey.

There's one way
to make him talk, Frank.

What's that ?

Find the murder weapon.

I'm stepping out for a bite.
You want something ?

- No, no, I'm cool.
- Okay.

You come in and look
at this for one sec ?

Sure.

Officers executed
a warrant on Howard's car.

These were all the possessions
that could have done the damage.

None of them are.

That's a plaster cast that Alexx
made of Barbara's head wound.

But none of Howard's things fit.

He could have tossed
what he used, but, uh...

he's an amateur,
so I'm hoping he didn't.

I know what he used.

A gun.

First blow glanced off the side
of her head, leaving a groove.

Next one hit her bluntly.

The coup de grace :
edge of the handle.

All combined,
it would have killed her.

But there were no guns found in
either vehicle, or at the crime scene.

It's got to be somewhere.

Yeah.

I think it's time we
questioned Howard again.

Well, maybe not.

Wasn't the necklace
recovered at a pawnshop ?

Yeah, maybe it's not
the only thing she pawned.

Looks like lunch is a drive-through.

Already did my civic service today.

Gave up a sweet sheet of ice.

Ah, come on, I know you love
the repeat business.

Why do I think
this ends badly for me ?

Well, it depends on
how helpful you are.

When Rita pawned the necklace,
that wasn't all she had, was it ?

Make it easy on yourself.
I know how many hot,

unregistered guns
you've got in there.

Now, why would you go say
something like that ?

I'm guessing Rita pawned a gun.

You give me the one
I'm looking for, we're good.

Okay. She pawned
a nine-millimeter.

See ?
That wasn't so hard.

Pawnshop guy said he wiped it down
before he planned to move it.

You know, no one
wants to buy dirty gun.

Well, there's pawnshop clean,
and then there's CSI cleans,

if you had a gun,
why wouldn't you fire it ?

If it wasn't loaded.

And how would you
know it wasn't loaded ?

Check the magazine.

Bingo.

See ya.

You won't believe me, but
I didn't come to town to kill her.

You're right.
I don't believe you.

I just wanted to see her.

To get her back.
I was the only man for her.

But she disagreed with you.

She just needed convincing.

So in order to convince her,

you killed her,

Howard.

She was past help.

And ditching Danny ?

I did her a favor.

Typical barb,

keeps a gun for protection,
then forgets to load it.

Barb ?

- Where's Danny ? !
- *****************

You're as bad a mother
as you were a wife !

Leave me alone...

You've made your son an orphan.

He's still got a dad.

At this point, Howard,
he doesn't think so.

Barb told him I was dead ?

That's correct,
and I understand her instinct.

Well, legally, I'm still
that boy's father.

That is true.
But being someone's father...

is not a right ;
it's a gift.

Take him.

Hey ?

Let it go.

Look, I'm sorry.

For what ?

For things that
I couldn't have known.

Well, then, why the apology ?

Because I think you deserve one.

I heard how you helped break
the case. Barbara's background.

Well, uh, it's still

stuff at happened in my past,
that's not your fault.

Well,

earlier today is the past.

So, I'm sorry.

Accepted.

Are you safe now ?

He-he's in jail.

I'm okay, Eric.

And, you know, we're okay.

Good. Okay.

- well, some things you can count on.
- Yeah.

Danny, I know it doesn't
feel like it right now,

but you're going to be okay.

My mom was killed,
just like yours.

- Really ?
- Yeah.

You mean by your dad ?

I do.

I do mean by my dad.

So...

so I want you to know

that you're not alone.

You really do know what it's like.

I also want you to know

that I am going to be
right in there

every day if you need to talk.

All right ?

Good man.

You, too.

You too, partner.
