All language subtitles for CSI New York S04E17

Come on!

You're so slow!

Let's go!

All right, your turn!

Let's go.

A shark washed up
on Rockaway last year.

No one figured out why.

This one brought a little
company with him.

You got an ID
on the vic?

Nothing on the body.

We're canvassing locals, and I
put a call into Missing Persons.

Who found them?

The Abercrombie
twins over there.

Looks like her hand
was the appetizer.

Shark attack victim.

Sounds like a job

for Chief Brody
and the Coast Guard,

not my forensics team. That's what
I thought, till I noticed the neck.

Take a real good look, Doc.

Strangulation marks.

Petechial hemorrhaging
in the eyes.

So what kind

of shark strangles his meal
before he takes a bite?

Severed femoral artery,

major tissue damage,

massive blood loss:
all postmortem injuries.

Seems kind of coincidental
that a shark would attack

a dead body,
and then

wash up onshore right
beside it. Not the only thing

that doesn't make sense:
there's very little evidence

consistent with her
being a floater.

It's as if she was strangled
and tossed to the shark

while she was still warm.

Stell?

I've seen this woman before.

Somewhere...

You know her?

I can't quite place it,
but her face is so familiar.

Rust-colored spots.

Carcharias taurus:
sand tiger shark.

Went on a cage dive
in the Bahamas.

Saw one up close
and very alive.

What are you doing
here, Quinn?

The Jersey Crime Lab
too boring for you?

I'm still a criminalist there,
but every other month

I inspect labs
for the Forensics Board.

It's been five years since yours
has been reaccredited.

Our review isn't scheduled
for another couple of weeks.

Everything moved up.
The Board wants things done ASAP

so for the next couple of days
I'll be monitoring protocol

and evaluating
your team's techniques;

then I'll file a report.

Don't worry, Mac.

I'll stay out of the way
and quietly observe.

Ha.

What's so funny?

I've never known you
to do anything quietly,

and staying out
of the way...

it's not your style.

Tiger sharks are known
as the wastebaskets of the sea.

They're amazing creatures.

The teeth aren't attached
to the jaw,

but embedded
in flesh and muscle.

That's why they can tear apart
a human body

so easily.
Yeah.

I found her hand
in the shark's alimentary canal.

The topography of the rips
in the flesh here

are a match...

to the vic's wrist.

I also found this
clenched in her hand.

And this was digested
around the same time.

Let's get these up to the lab
and figure out what they are.

And one more thing.

Our victim's
stomach contents.

You'll probably want to have
someone ladle through that.

Now, cause of death
is definitely strangulation,

but I found bright red blood
in her lung tissue.

Hmm, she was poisoned
before she was strangled?

Don't know the chemical
of choice; I'm waiting

on a result from Tox.
Could this be

two failed attempts
at suicide?

Poison...

A hanging...

Finally, she jumped?

Or one failed attempt at murder.

After the poison didn't work,
she was strangled, then dumped.

And then there's
the poor shark.

Well, if you see it
from his point of view,

he's noshing on the finest
prime rib he's had in months

and dies of food poisoning.

I mean, there's a chance
she killed him.

Want to take a look
at the vic's stomach contents?

Most people
don't usually invite me

to participate in the process.

Most people are intimidated
by your job.

Mac tell you to do this?

Just like him to
throw a curve ball.

No, he didn't.

But I just thought you might
want to see what I was looking at.

So you know Mac?

From a long time ago.

Actually, we both applied
for the job he has now.

The crystals look like

coa butter seeds,
caused when chocolate

is agitated.

Helps to refine
high-end chocolate.

I didn't realize you could major
in chocolate forensics.

Hm, wouldn't that be great.

No, I've seen those kind
of crystals before.

My specialization at the Jersey
Crime Lab is microscopy,

but the yellow substance--
any ideas?

Alkaline extraction indicates

it's some kind
of plant material.

I'm running a morphological
search right now,

and it is...

Turnera aphrodisiaca
from Central America,

otherwise known as Damiana.

Any psychoactive properties?

Let's see.

Damiana can be smoked,
producing effects similar

toCannabis sativa.

It's used in herbal tea

to promote lucid dreaming,
and it's...

added to tequila
to enhance lovemaking.

I am all for a good margarita.

I'm with you on that.

However, this sounds more
like a drug.

Maybe the killer used it
to subdue the vic

before he strangled her.

This thing is photoluminescent.

It's designed to be
seen in the dark.

Well, my big discovery:
that this is all-purpose tarp.

It's plastic.

Sharks will eat
anything, huh?

Yeah, they will.

"That shark, swallow you whole."

Not too good on the accent.

"$10,000 will get you me
by myself-- for that you get...

"The head, the tail... you get

the whole damn thing."

That's such a good movie.

Yeah, we should rent it.

This is hard.

All right,
so we found phosphene

and tear gas on
the plastic tarp.

I liquefied the shark's tissue
samples and got the same result.

She has trace amounts
of phosphene on her skin.

So, she was wrapped
in the tarp,

shark ate it,
ingested the toxin and died.

Okay, so that's
what killed Jaws,

but that's not a poison

that makes the blood
turn bright red.

The answer to that question
is carbon monoxide.

Sid found it
in the vic's lung tissue.

This piece of rock I found
in the victim's bra,

it's from a gravestone.

Taylor.

All right, so we have
a vic who was strangled,

poisoned with carbon monoxide,
has phosphene on her skin

and a piece of gravestone
in her clothing.

This keeps getting more bizarre.

Stella, you're with me.

What is it?

We've got another body.

Folks were on the beach,
minding their own business

when the body rolled in
with the tide.

Less than a mile from
where we found the other vic.

Tarp looks familiar.

No lividity.

Petechial hemorrhaging
in her eyes,

just like our Rockaway vic.

There's no strangulation marks.

Same abrasions on her hands.

Same MO. Found a couple business cards

in her pocket that look
like hers: Louise Perry,

That's it. That's...
that's how I know the first vic.

Ever since the fire, I've been
looking to buy a new condo.

I was in a real estate office,
and she was there.

Our first vic
is also a real estate agent.

You sure?

I'm positive.

We have two women dead,
similar MOs,

found within a mile of each
other, both with the same job.

Maybe we're looking
at a disgruntled client,

someone who's upset
about a sale

or a loss of his property.

Two bodies within 24 hours

doesn't play like a coincidence.

No, it doesn't.

How did the press
get this so fast?

Detective Taylor, are these
murders connected? No comment.

Detective Bonasera, did
you identify the victims?

We won't release any IDs
until the victims' families

have been notified.

Hey, Mac!

Looks like you've got company.
I'll see you inside.

Two women, same kind of job.

Is this a serial killer?

He's okay.

Reed, I thought
you were working

the city desk for the paper.

Nope, not anymore.

I've got my own blog now,
New York 24/7 News.

Then don't you want to get
your facts straight

before you sensationalize
a story?

I thought
that's what I was doing.

Help me out.

We got two female victims,

both floaters, both
brutally murdered...

Crime blotter stuff, Mac.
Come on.

I mean, are
the murders connected?

Are there any suspects?

Is it true,
is this a serial killer?

Reed, you got
to understand something.

This is psychological.

You yell "murder" in this city,
people don't even blink.

Yell "serial killer," we've got

a panic on our hands. I get
it. I get it. I do. I'm sorry.

You remind me of your mother.

When Claire wanted something,
she went after it.

She wouldn't let go
till she got it.

But you want the facts,

then you're going to have
to wait for the science

like the rest of us.

When I have something solid,
you'll be my first call.

I have your word?

Yeah.

Okay.

The second vic
Louise Perry's COD

is asphyxiation due
to carbon monoxide poisoning,

but that's not
all there is.

Take a look at these.

Right here.

These weren't
on our first vic.

Irregular lacerations
on the back of her neck.

No redness or inflammation
along the edges.

They were inflicted postmortem.

I've often said we don't get
enough guests down here

in Autopsy, although
there's been quite a few

people by to see the shark.

I've still got it on ice if
you... Sid, Inspector Shelby

is here to document
the chain of evidence.

Thanks, Doctor.
Maybe later.

All right,
well, let me

try to impress you

in some other fashion.

I found shreds

of a paperlike material

under her fingernails.

There does appear to be some
kind of adhesive on the paper.

I'll have Hawkes
take a closer look.

Didn't you say there were some
other similarities

between her and the first
vic, Chrissy Watson?

Yes, stomach contents.

Both victims
had eaten chocolate and Damiana

just prior to death.

So we have
two real estate agents

working for different companies,

both with the same
stomach contents.

And CO poisoning.
Right.

Want to offer your assessment?

I can't speak to motive,

but I can take a look
at the tox report.

Um...

Based on the carboxyhemoglobin
levels,

I'd say that Louise Perry
was somehow gassed

in a confined,
possibly sealed space.

Only way to get the CO
saturation you're seeing.

And since that
rules out anything

from the ocean,
I'd say you've got

a tough job ahead of you, Mac.

You're hunting a land shark.

She's good.

Hey, Mac.

The phosphene on the tarp

is consistent
with fumigation.

They shoot tear gas
into the buildings

to make sure
no one's left inside.

There must be
a hundred buildings

in the city being fumigated
right now.

235, to be exact.

I think I've got something;
the Damiana herb

we found in both
our vics' stomachs

was combined with criollo,
the most expensive

dark chocolate money
can buy. Who sells it?

It's not on the market yet.
There's only one company

that makes the blend,
and they're

premiering it this week.
Where?

Miami, L.A., Paris, Milan...

Welcome to the Chocolate
Style Show.

For the businesswoman on the go,
a white truffle suit

with dark chocolate accents.

This chic confection features
bite-sized milk chocolates

deliciously tempting
to eye and palate.

Go! Go! Go! Go!

Double dip into your sexy
sweet tooth in this luxurious

coa knit... with detachable
and edible strawberry...

Make any night a
semi-sweet fantasy

in chocolate cookies
with cream-filled centers.

It's freezing in here.

Chocolate melts
at blood temperature.

The cold keeps their clothes on.

Very good to know.

So I hear you have
an inspector in house.

Yeah, I think at some point
she worked with Mac.

They were both up for his job.

He doesn't mind her
looking over his shoulder?

Actually, it's weird.

He seems to be fine with it.

She pretty?

This inspector?

Just saying.

And now for the
ultimate in chocolate,

here's Damiana.

12:00.

Yellow flowers and chocolate,
that's our girl.

Hey,Project Runway,

who did your dress?

The first time I mixed
Damiana with chocolate,

it was at the party.

People were having sex
on the couch,

on the floor, in the kitchen.
Charles Kohl.

It was a revelation.

Do you care
to blow your mind?

Care to blow yours?

You recognize either
of those women, Mr. Kohl?

Never seen them before.

You sure about that?
Yeah, I'm sure.

That's funny.

The one thing

these two ladies
have in common

is that their last meal was your

Damiana chocolate.
And since it's not

on the market yet, we
were wondering how they got it.

Look around.

I have dozens of employees

and they all work here
at the factory.

They all had access to samples.

We'll need a list.

And you'll need a warrant.

You sure you don't
want a sample?

I was taught never to take
candy from strangers.

Chocolate factory aside,

Charlie's lying.

Yeah, like
any good designer,

I'm sure he gave a few previews.

Why don't you run him
through the system,

see if he has any priors?
Mmm.

Does it blow your mind?

You've got a great team, Mac. But?

Nothing's ever perfect
with you, Quinn.

Well, Detectives
Messer and Monroe.

They're obviously a little
more than just co-workers.

I don't get involved
in my team's personal lives.

Mac, I'm just giving you
a heads-up.

As a result of what
was obviously

a personal exchange
between Monroe and Messer,

Monroe got distracted,

and left her evidence out,
unattended.

We can all try

and compartmentalize,

but nobody can help
the fact that sometimes

life gets in the way.

And when things get messy,
mistakes are made.

And I believe
I'm quoting you on that one.

Point taken.

Got your message.

What's going on?

Pop quiz.

What do carbon monoxide

and phosphorescence
have in common?

I suspect you're
going to tell me.

I'm going to do you one better.

I'll show you.

Shut it.

It's okay.

An emergency handle.

It's a perfect match
to what our first vic had

clenched in her hand.

It's a thermoplastic polymer

with a thioxanthene dye mixed in
to make it fluoresce.

So Chrissy Watson
was transported

in the trunk of a car.

In a Lincoln or Ford sedan

built after 2002;
that's the only

kind of car with this specific
kind of handle.

Maybe Louise Perry
was transported

in a car as well.

That would explain
the carbon monoxide poisoning.

The saturation levels of CO

were abnormally high
in both vics.

The car would've had
to have been modified

so that the exhaust pumped
directly into the trunk,

and somehow the trunk was sealed
to contain the gas.

And maybe that worked
with Louise Perry,

but something happened
with Chrissy Watson.

She didn't get enough CO.

She woke up.

Grabbed the trunk handle.

When the killer saw
the trunk open,

he went back and finished
the job.

That would explain
the strangulation marks.

The MO on both vics
was the same,

but with Chrissy,
he made a mistake.

Good thing she held
onto the evidence.

Which I hear you may
have left unattended.

What?

You were in the
lab with Danny.

Inspector Shelby...

Oh, but Danny
was right there.

I mean, I'm sure
that he put it away.

Oh, that's a bad excuse.

Mac, I-I'm sorry.

I know
it's my responsibility.

I know we're talking
about evidence

that could convict somebody
of murder...

Lindsay, to tell
you the truth,

I'm more concerned
about you.

I'm okay, Mac.

You put up
a good front,

but whatever is
or is not going on

between you and Danny,

you cannot let it
affect your job.

I should never
have gotten involved

with somebody I work with.

It was stupid,
really stupid.

has letters on it.

I think... this one says

"rights" or "rits" maybe.
Maybe's no good.

You got to be exact, okay,
'cause we're under observation.

Come on, man. She's cool.

No, I know.
I know.

I just, uh, feel like I'm
in detention or something.

You know?

I think
this one might say "obey."

I was never that good
atWheel of Fortune.

It's real easy, Doc. You just
got to keep buying the vowels.

Maybe our vic
scratched this off

from wherever
she was being held.

Hey, Mac.

I thought you said I was going
to be your first call.

After we talked
yesterday,

I updated my blog.

I told people

that I have a confidential
source that was keeping me

in the loop.

My hit counter

is off the charts.

People are craving
information

about this case,
and now I look like an idiot.

This story didn't come
from me. Yeah, but if they

have information about this,
that means you must have known.

I trusted you.

Look,
you shouldn't have promised

something you couldn't deliver.

This is my career
we're talking about.

Reed... your expectations
of our relationship

do not and will
never dictate

when or with whom I reveal
evidence in a murder case.

Is that clear?

Yes.

There are worse things
than being scooped.

Two women were murdered. Yeah,
and I want to write about 'em.

Okay,
who they are,

what their families
are going through,

who's responsible.

All right?

When I have something
worth writing about,

I'll let you know.

Mac, I know I am just here
to evaluate your team

and your lab and what
you're investigating.

Is this, uh...

about Detective Monroe again?

No, it's about
the CO poisoning

of your vics.

Chrissy Watson

and Louise Perry seemed
familiar, so I called my lab.

A colleague of mine
had a case

about three months ago--

a body washed up
on the Jersey Shore.

The vic's name
was Ben Melvoy.

He was an attorney.

He had carbon monoxide
poisoning

and he was found wrapped
in a fumigation tarp.

Male vic
who is not a real estate agent.

Inconsistent with
our killer's MO.

I know, but he does
have something

that Louise Perry had.

Lacerations.

And notice how they all slant
to the left?

I don't think
these are accidental.

Could be some kind
of handwriting,

possibly letters, numbers.

The killer wrapped his vics in
tarps as if to preserve them--

first Ben Melvoy, then Chrissy
Watson, finally Louise Perry.

Only problem is

Chrissy Watson
doesn't match the pattern.

She didn't have
any lacerations on her.

That we saw.

There was a large shark bite
on her neck and shoulder.

If Chrissy Watson
has the same marks

as Ben Melvoy

and Louise Perry... Then
he's using all his vics

to try and tell
us something.

Hawkes?

What's going on?
Meet me in Autopsy.

I want to know what the
killer is trying to say.

So I emptied

the stomach contents.

Didn't find any
additional skin.

So let's go
inside the intestine.

Great.

L2729.

This tearing around
the wound's edges

is consistent

with some kind
of jagged implement.

I found trace

in the laceration.

It's slate--

matches the gravestone
Lindsay found

in the first vic's clothes.

She's running a more
detailed analysis

to see if we can date the stone.

So the killer used gravestone

to carve these.

Or at least something made
of the same kind of material.

But why?

Whatever the reason,

this is the strongest
physical evidence

linking our killer
to the vics.

Hawkes,

follow up with Lindsay
on the trace.

Stella,
run an image search,

scan every database.

Go outside the parameters
of the lab

if you have to.

I want to know what made these
marks and what "L2729" means.

We might have someone
who can answer that.

Charles Kohl,

the guy who makes Damiana.

Flack checked
him out. In 2005,

the German government issued
a red letter on him

through Interpol.
Wire fraud,

outstanding civil judgment
for sexual harassment.

He also lied
about knowing Chrissy Watson.

Charles signed
the visitor log

at her open house
the day she was killed.

Maybe Charles has more
than one signature.

Mr. Kohl around?

Hey!

How's that for
a sample, huh?

Let's go.

You signed in at an open house
held by Chrissy Watson.

No, I didn't.

Oh, yes, you did.

Your signature.

I looked
at an apartment, huh?

So what?
You lied to us.

That's what.

You were Chrissy's
last client

the day she died.
What happened?

I'm in the market
for a $5 million apartment.

I have real estate agents
all over me.

She was pressuring me
to go see a place.

You know, I don't usually make
appointments in the evening.

But... given that this place

is absolutely

perfect

for you...

You deserve
this, Charles.

You need it.

What's it going to take
for me to make this sale?

You know, I have some ideas.

Stop it. W-What
are you doing?

You want to make this sale
or not, huh?

Get, get your hands off of me
or I will call the police.

Get off of me!

She was sending me mixed signals
is what she was doing.

Yeah, I bet.
I left.

I never saw her again.

Louise Perry.

Was she sending you
mixed signals, Charles?

She's dead,

murdered just like Chrissy.

She also had
some of your

exclusive,
not-on-the-market-yet chocolate

just before she died.

I never met this woman before.

How about this guy?
Lawyer from Jersey.

You ever been
to Jersey?

Maybe three months ago?

I identified the
additional trace

in Chrissy Watson's
lacerations: sycamore

and ash, rich in copper,
zinc and silicon.

Those last components
were major players

in the ash
from September 11.

And there was a story
in the paper a couple days later

about a sycamore tree

that fell on some church.

The branches actually protected
the structure from the debris

and ash, and I think...

Yeah, I think
there was a graveyard there.

So whatever our killer used
to carve those lacerations

could be from the graveyard
at that church.

Yeah. Let's find that church.

I've completed

my evaluation
of the lab.

Aside from the anomaly
I observed

with Detective Monroe,

your team's ability
to follow protocol

exceeds
the established standards.

I'll recommend
reaccreditation

to the Board.

That's it? You're done?

I thought these things

usually take at least a week.

Is that an invitation
for me to stay?

You were always good at that.

What?

Flirting.

I can't help it.

I still have a thing for you.

Why didn't you ever call me?

Quinn, I was married.

It was just a kiss, Mac.

I know--

a moment of weakness.

It was a mistake.

I loved my wife.

Don't I know it.

Every day
I worked alongside you,

you never let me forget that.

It wasn't my intention
to make things difficult.

You know, I've thought
about this moment so many times,

about what I would say to you
when I finally got the chance.

And here I am, and all
I keep thinking is...

does he ever wonder "what if?"

Mac, we got a lead
on the gravestone trace.

It came from

St. Angelo's Church.

All right.

I'll be right there.

Quinn, no matter
how good they are,

some memories need
to be forgotten.

I get it.

Hey, I ran a search

on L2729.

Unfortunately,
our letter-number combo

is used 101 ways and counting.

Did you guys find anything here?

Any of those gravestones
could be the source

of what the killer used
to carve his vics.

Showed photos
of the vics

to the priest.

Doesn't recognize 'em.

Neither do any of the other
daily guests out there.

Then why here?

What does this place have
to do with these murders?

Maybe the killer's a member
of the congregation.

Okay. Well, too bad
we don't have a name or a photo.

How can someone
kill three people

and not leave a piece
of themselves behind?

Flack, I want a list

of anyone who
attends services

or uses the church as sanctuary.

I'll see what I can do.

The killer's MO doesn't add up.

First he kills Ben Melvoy,
the attorney from New Jersey.

And then,
three months go by,

and he kills Chrissy Watson
and Louise Perry,

the two real estate agents.

Yeah, I'm not seeing how
this guy is picking his vics.

None of this makes sense.

We're dealing with a psychopath.

A predator who
takes what he wants

and doesn't need a reason
for doing it.

We may never know why.

Our job is to find out the who.

So we go back to the evidence.

Hawkes, I want samples

of every one
of these gravestones.

If any of them match,

I want to know it. I'm on it.

Ride back?
Yeah, sure.

L2729-- it's so
specific.

I mean, he carved it
in both his vics,

but narrowing down its meaning
is nearly impossible.

Look, just
to name a few...

it's a name of a chapter
of International Firefighters,

the name of an ingredient
in skin care,

the size of a bracket used
in aircraft manufacturing.

You know, maybe
this code or message

or whatever it is
doesn't mean anything.

Maybe it's some
random part in a...

in a game.

Hold that thought.

Chrissy Watson?

Mac!

I know how
he picks 'em.

Ben Melvoy.

Two vics' ads
on the same street.

It can't be a coincidence.

It's Louise Perry,
the second vic

we found
on Rockaway.

He picked the ads
with faces and phone numbers.

"Come home with me."

The ones who offered
something better,

some kind of sanctuary.

And if our killer started
back at the church...

Moving north. The ads are
in order with time of death.

First, Ben Melvoy.

Next, Chrissy Watson.

Then, Louise Perry.

If our theory's right,

the next victim's ad
should be up ahead.

I don't know, Mac. I'm not
seeing any more personalized ads.

Maybe there's only three vics.

Stella?

P.J. Davis.

If he's picking them off
in order, then...

She could be
his next target.

Hey, Flack?

P.J. Davis isn't

picking up
her phone. Great.

Great. Give it to me.
Okay, got it.

He get an address?

Yeah, 2352 Park Ave.

It's her last
open house of the day.

Can I help you?

Yeah, I saw your sign outside.

I love these old places.

I just wanted
to take a quick look around.

Sorry, hon,
I only show by appointment.

I'll be quick.

All right.

This place has a bedroom
to die for.

Oh, come on!

I'm not getting anywhere
on the stuff

under the vic's
fingernails.

Maybe it's not
the words.

What about the adhesive?

The adhesive was, um,
pressure-sensitive.

It was removable.

And given the emergency handle,

it was probably
on a Lincoln or a Ford.

Why would someone put a
removable sticker inside a car?

Taxi!

Taxi?

Come on, man.

Come on. Come on!

The door's open.

Can I help you?

Okay, using the keywords
"obey" and "rights,"

I'm searching for stickers

that were issued by the city
to drivers.

Looks like they were all
required to pay a fee...

for this.

Taxicab Passenger
Bill of Rights.

That's what was under
the victim's nails.

Every cabbie is required
to put one in the backseat.

It tells the passengers
what their rights are.

You know, air conditioning,

seatbelts that work.
People see this

every day, but they never
pay attention to it.

Mac, the stuff underneath
the vic's fingernails--

it's from the Taxicab
Passenger Bill of Rights.

Taxi!

Stop!

Going to 29th and Lex.

So the vics
were in the cab.

Once they were inside...

the killer had them trapped.

The cab's rigged

so that CO emissions

from the tailpipe pour
into the backseat.

Hey! The windows, man.

A little fresh air?

Hey! Hey, just pull over.

Just... Hey!

Once the vics realized

there was something wrong,
they tried to escape.

Hey! Hey, man!

Hey!

Pull over!

He watched them...

...beg for their lives.

Let me out.

Let me out!

I really
appreciate this.

Same marks.

They look
postmortem.

Mac, it looks like
we're dealing with the same MO.

I want every
cab checked,

background checks
on the drivers.

I want their trip logs.

Mac, there are 11,000 cabs
in this city.

Our killer's a cab driver.

Any New Yorker could be
his next victim.
