Teaser:
Jordan, Woody, Delinda, and Danny are all at a boxing
match. One of the boxers, Colin, is Danny's
friend. Danny asks Woody how he thinks Colin is
doing, and Woody just comments that usually when he sees
guys go at it like that he has to arrest them. He
then jokes with Delinda on how Danny flies her across
the country to watch a bloody boxing match.
Delinda does not mind...and they start kissing.
Jordan and Woody just look at each other. Delinda
is commenting on the hotel they are staying at and how
she is so excited to get there. Then she asks
Jordan and Woody if they ever go there. They both
shake their heads, and Danny comments that they are
"just friends." The fight is in full force and
Colin ends up winning, beating the champion.
The next morning
Jordan and Woody are arriving at a scene. Woody
complains about getting a 6:00am call after a night out.
Jordan tells him he should know better than to try and
out drink a guy who works at a casino. Woody
comments on how he does not like it when Jordan flirts
with Danny. They both arrive at a dumpster where
the body is located. Jordan climbs in, commenting
on how some days she really hates her job. She
examines the body and they find that it is Colin.
It looks like he was beaten to death, but then again he
was just in the ring the night before.
Act One:
Jordan and Woody are in autopsy are in autopsy.
Nigel is going through the clothes. Danny arrives
and Jordan and Woody tell him how sorry they are.
Jordan confirms that Colin was beaten to death, and it
looks like the time of death was a few hours after the
match. Nigel finds some sweat on Colin's shirt and
goes to run it for DNA. Danny wants in on the
investigation, but Woody reminds him that he is not a
cop. Colin's wife shows up and Danny consoles her.
Bug and Garret are in
trace going over bones that were found in a car that was
in the river. He is trying to figure out if it was
an accident or murder. Lily is back from vacation
and comes in to greet the two of them. She is
obviously very pregnant and says she just ballooned up
in the last week. They are both so happy to see
her. Bug comments on how she is glowing. He
takes her hand and tells Lily she looks great.
Garret gets a nervous look and Bug and Lily wonder why.
Garret tells them he is just concerned because Ivers is
still poking around and he doesn't want him thinking
there is an inner-office relationship going on.
Bug laughs because it is not his baby, and they are not
even dating.
Woody and Danny are
at the gym where Colin trained talking to his trainer,
Mickey. They question him about what happened
after the match last night. It turns out he was
suppose to meet up with a bunch of people for dinner,
but he never showed. Danny asks Mickey some
questions, which irritates Woody because he warned him
that he was not a cop. Woody tries to stop Danny
from asking the question, but ends up just asking the
same questions anyway because it was what he was going
to say. Mickey takes a drink of a concoction of
some kind which really smells, and Woody asks what it
is. Turns out it is a mix of trout. Danny
stays on task and asks Mickey who he thinks would want
Colin dead. Mickey points out the obvious that it
was the fighter that lost the night before, Tommy
O'Riley. Apparently he threatened Colin right
before the fight.
Bug is going through
the personal effects of the woman in the car. She
had the soundtrack from Flashdance in her
cassette player, so he jokingly estimates that she may
have died sometime in the 80's. They were running
her name that was on her drivers license and it turns
out she does not exist. There was a Polaroid in
the car and after running it through some chemicals Bug
is able to get the print to show. It is the woman
with two kids, a boy and a girl. Lily really
stresses that they need to find the kids. Jeffrey
enters the room and apologizes for not calling Lily
back. Lily comes out from the table she is
standing behind and Jeffrey notices that she is
pregnant. He asks if it is his and Lily confirms
that it is. Bug can not believe she had not told
him yet, and leaves the room. Jeffrey is angry
with Lily and tells her that she should have found him
to tell him the truth.
Woody and Danny are
back at the gym trying to figure out their next move.
Woody has Danny checking with the casino to see if there
is any dirt on Colin. Danny thinks it is just so
he is not in Woody's way, but he goes along with it.
Woody gets a call from Jordan and she fills him in that
they found some sweat on the shirt. He has her
meet him at Tommy O'Riley's house.
At Tommy O'Rileys
Woody and Jordan are hoping to find DNA to compare
against the sample from the shirt. When they are
at the door they hear something inside. Woody
bangs on the door and is about ready to break it down
when Jordan stops him. She grabs a key hidden in
the light and opens the door. Inside they find
Tommy O'Riley and Colin's wife in the living room.
He was without his shirt, and she went running half
dressed into the bedroom.
Act Two:
Jordan is pounding on the door trying to get Sandy to
come out of the bedroom. Woody is talking to
Tommy, telling him how bad this looks for him. The
fact that he threatened Colin before the fight, and also
the fact that he was sleeping with his wife. Sandy
finally came out and admitted she just wanted someone to
hold her. Jordan convinces Tommy to do a DNA test
so he can be cleared.
In the break room Bug
is yelling at Lily because he can not believe she had
not told Jeffery. Garret comes in and interrupts
briefly, but Bug and Lily continue the argument in the
hall. Bug can not believe Lily did not go to his
office and tell him about the baby. They move the
argument into the conference room and the doors of the
elevator open and Delinda is there. She is looking
for Danny, but in the process opens the conference room
and finds Bug and Lily arguing. She continues on
up the hall way and stops to look at the bugs in the
glass. Nigel notices her and goes to chat.
He has an ion spectrometer with him and apparently
Delinda has done some reading on the subject and is
interested in learning more. Naturally Nigel is
happy to please.
Bug is back to work
on his case and Garret comes in to check on him.
He reminds Bug about Ivers and how he wants thinks to be
kept quiet about possible inner work relationships.
Bug vents a little to Garret, but then the screen to the
computer shows the real identity of the woman.
Garret suggests he fill Lily in on the news so she can
notify the family. Bug tries to tell Garret he can
handle it himself, but Garret informs him that he and
Lily are going to work together on this case.
Jordan and Woody are
back at the morgue discussing the case as they walk
through the hallway. They head in to the computer
room where Nigel and Delinda are doing a little
research. They are a little shocked to see Delinda
working with Nigel. Woody is concerned Nigel is
letting her handle evidence, but Nigel assures him that
she is a genius and is just helping out. It is
obvious Nigel has a crush on Delinda. Nigel then
shows all of them a program that can determine which
punches came from the fight the night before by watching
the video, and then they can determine which punches
came from the killer. Delinda asks for a snack.
Woody then questions Nigel why there was so many blows
to the head. Nigel suggests it may be a epidural
hematoma. In the autopsy room Jordan examines the
brain and finds nothing suggesting that to be the cause
of death. Delinda again asks for a snack and Woody
can not believe she can think about food when there is a
brain sitting on the table in front of her. Nigel
then comes in and informs them that Tommy's DNA does not
match, and Colin's tox screen showed that he had been
drugged. He then shows them the stomach contents
and it is the same as the fish drink Mickey was
drinking.
In the conference
room Lily and Bug are visiting with the son of the woman
they have been working on. He does not seem to
really care about what happened to her. He does
not want anything to do with her because he believes his
mother walked out on him when he was a little kid.
He walks out and tells them that they can do whatever
they want with the body.
Jordan, Danny, and
Woody are back at the gym looking for Mickey.
Woody hackles Danny again about how he is the one who is
the cop and Danny needs to let him ask the questions.
They argue a little and Jordan leaves them to go look
for Mickey. Danny suggests that him and Woody put
on the gloves and fight. The start fighting, but
in the mean time Jordan comes over wondering what they
are doing. She notices a bloody towel next to the
ring and pulls out the block and looks under the ring.
Mickey is there and he is dead.
Act Three:
Jordan and Danny bring Mickey to the morgue. Nigel
and Delinda are there, Danny is happy to see Delinda.
They decide that they are going to go back to the hotel.
Jordan tells them they have done all they can and that
she will keep them posted. Nigel comments to
Jordan that Delinda was the most perfect woman he had
ever met.
Lily is in her office
going over the case of the woman. She keeps
picturing her with her kids and this is having an affect
on her making a personal effort to find out why she
left. She is looking trough fake ID's and
following a hunch. Bug comes in and tries to
figure out what she is doing. He tells her that
not everything can have a happy ending. Lily gets
a little upset and decides it is time to talk about what
is really going on because she is sick of not talking.
She knows she messed up in not telling Jeffery, but with
Bug she is a little upset because he, and she says it,
walks on egg shells. She walked out on her wedding
for him and he has not done anything about it. She
says she made it clear what she wanted, and then she got
pregnant and it was great he gave her time and space to
figure out what she wants to do with her situation.
But she wants to know what HE wants now because he has
not ever told her. She turns back to the computer
to keep searching and Bug leaves the room. Garret
was outside the room and he heard the entire
conversation.
Jordan is going over
Mickey's body trying to find a connection to Colin's
killer. Nigel then brings up Delinda and asks
Jordan if she thinks Danny and Delinda have the real
thing. Jordan tells him flat out that she does not
think it is going to happen with her. He brings up
her relationship with Danny, but Jordan pointed out that
they had matured and moved on. Nigel thinks that
is possible with Delinda and Danny...that Delinda will
eventually move on, to him. Woody comes in just as
Jordan is comparing DNA. It turns out it was
Mickey's DNA that was on the sweat from Colin's murder.
Now they need to find who killed Mickey and why so they
can put this entire case together.
Act Four:
Big is looking over his case again. Garret comes
in and wonders what he is doing because the case is
supposed to be closed. He then guesses that Lily
probably has something to do with it. Bug is a
little irritated because he thinks Lily is just
emotional because of her pregnancy and she can't imagine
a mother abandoning her child. Bug agrees with
her. Garret then tells Bug to forget about being
discrete with his relationship with Lily. He just
wants him to do what is best for him and Lily, no matter
what Ivers might think.
Woody, Nigel, and
Jordan are in the crypt with Mickey and Colin trying to
figure out what happened. They know the two
murders are connected.
Lily is in the
conference room with all the paperwork and research and
Bug comes in. He has figured out when the woman's
car went in the river because her tires were new.
They call in and try to explain it to Brian, the woman's
son. At first he does not want to hear it, but
after Bug and Lily show him the paperwork for the new
tires. It shows the odometer of the car, and it
proves that she had only driven a couple miles before
the car went off the road and into the river. They
compared the handwriting from the letter his mother
supposedly wrote and it did not match. His father
faked the letter and made Brian think his mother left
him.
Nigel, Jordan, and
Woody are rewatching the tape of the fight. Jordan
thinks of something and looks at a cross section of
Colin's brain. She find sign of brain damage.
Jordan then puts the pieces together and everything
points to Colin's wife, Sandy. Danny then calls
Woody and informs him he is still working the case.
It confirms that Sandy is their new prime suspect.
Act Five:
Sandy is in interrogation with Woody, Jordan, and Danny.
She is acting innocent at first. After showing her
the evidence about Colin's brain damage, and after
showing the rest of the evidence Sandy finally
confesses. She then said it was Mickey's idea.
But in the end it was hers.
Back at the morgue we
see Brian leaving with his mother's body in a box.
Lily is watching him and Bug comes in to check and make
sure she is ok. He then tells her that it is not
really important what he wants...what is important is
the baby. Lily is a little shocked. Bug says
he does not want to be a part of it at the moment
because he feels like a fourth wheel, and he walks out.
Lily again is shocked, and has a look of sadness.
Jeffrey then comes in to talk to Lily and they talk.
A lot of questions are left unanswered.
Jordan and Woody are
heading out of the morgue and Woody asks Jordan who she
though would win the fight, him or Danny. Jordan
goofingly says that Woody would win because he is so big
and strong. He laughs, and then asks Jordan if she
thinks Danny and Delinda will last. She tells him
that Nigel thinks their relationship will implode
because that is how these "on again, off again"
relationships work. Woody then comments about how
workplace romances are a bad idea, and Jordan
agrees....hesitantly. The elevator doors close
with the both of them looking at each other a little
uncomfortably, like they may be thinking there is a
possibility it might not be such a bad idea.
