The Quotable Caine:
“Things are different, Joseph, but the thing that has not changed and will never change is the difference between right and wrong."
Episode Recap:
The arrest of a pair of bank robbers at a drawbridge as it is in the process of being raised reveals the body of club owner Jake Richmond, hanging from beneath the bridge, sporting twin gunshots to his eyes. Alexx determines he was dead before he was hung--he was shot first. A Joker playing card in his pocket lead Horatio and Frank Tripp to believe his death was a mob hit. Horatio sends Ryan back to the lab with the velvet rope Jake was hung with.
In the morgue, Alexx recovers one of the bullets from Jake's head but notes that the other was a through and through and is probably at the primary crime scene. Calleigh runs the bullet they have and matches it up in IBIS with a bullet from a murder a year ago that mobster Joey Salucci was implicated in but never tried for. Horatio questions Salucci who is dismissive of Horatio's suspicions, claiming he's just in 'real estate.'
Calleigh and Delko go to Jake's club, The Burgundy Club, where they notice tread marks and a bloody scantron sheet, but no large blood pool, leading them to conclude the primary crime scene was in the car that left the tread marks. The CSIs talk to bartender Cesar "Cuzz" Morales, who tells them Jake was so worried about Joey that he would have Cesar taste test his drinks for poison. Cesar writes down his number for the CSIs, offering to help with any additional information they might need.
Back at the lab, Horatio learns Ryan got into a minor car accident on his way back to the lab with the velvet rope. Horatio tells the young CSI it's time to go in for an eye exam and Ryan reluctantly agrees.
In the DNA lab, Cynthia tells Delko that the blood on the scantron sheet is indeed Jake's, and is able to trace it back to a screenwriting course at Dade University. The class's teacher, Professor Meyer, tells Calleigh and Delko that he just ordered a new batch of test answer sheets, which he kept in the back of his car. He's shocked when he opens his trunk and discovers a blood pool next to the new sheets, but tells the CSIs that he keeps his car key in his desk drawer and anyone could have borrowed it. The CSIs impound the car and Calleigh discovers the missing 9 mil bullet in it, while Delko finds an ear bud from an iPod, indicating someone younger than the professor did drive the car at some point. Valera gets DNA results off the rope, which provide a match to Norman Stein, a movie producer. He admits to getting into an altercation with Cesar at the entrance of the Burgundy Club--he was trying to get two writers into the club who are writing a screenplay that involves a club, despite the fact that the young writers clearly have no experience of the club world. The two young men, Patrick Wilder and Ben Williams, are only up to page forty on their script, "The Clubland Murders"--a script they claim is the brainchild of Professor Meyer.
Ryan finally gets his eye examined, and the doctor diagnoses him with an infection of the tissue behind his eye. She cautions him against working, warning that surgery is the next step if this course of antibiotics doesn't help, and warning that he could lose his sight permanently.
Horatio questions Professor Meyer, who admits to helping Patrick and Ben with the story for their script and Horatio thinks he may have killed Jake to prove to his students that he was the real deal. He denies a handwritten detailed description of the murder in the script is in his handwriting. Delko matches the writing to Cesar, who tells Horatio and Tripp he was helping the boys with the script and that the idea just came to him. But when Horatio and Tripp discover a gun in the bar, they arrest Cesar. Cesar used to work for Joey Salucci around the time of the earlier murder, and the CSIs think he dosed Jake with GHB and killed him. The gun is a match to the one from the previous homicide but the print isn't Cesar's, forcing the CSIs to release him. Stein brings the latest script pages into Horatio, which involve the murder of 'the snitch.' Horatio takes the pages to Patrick, whom he and Delko think planted the murder weapon in the bar. Patrick IDs Cesar as the snitch, but it's too late--he's already been killed.
Calleigh and Delko go to the Burgundy club where Cesar has been beaten to death. They are able to eliminate both Norman and Patrick as suspects, but when they find Ben at the scene holding a deck of cards, they immediate suspect him. They haul Ben back to the station where he spills all: Norman had Cesar take the boys under his wing because they clearly had no knowledge of club life. Cesar wanted to run Jake's bars so he got Patrick and Ben to drug Jake and hang him, but things got out of hand when Patrick instead shot Jake through the eyes in Meyer's car and decided to put the card in his pocket to make it look like a mob hit. It was Patrick who convinced Ben to go back to the club to get the cards, and he discovered Cesar dead. Patrick may have fired the gun, but it's Ben whose print is on it, pinning it entirely on him. Horatio is able to arrest Joey Salucci for Cesar's death: Joey beat him to death after getting a note on his car that Cesar was going to snitch about the murder he committed while working for Joey. Joey is arrested, but Patrick walks out of the police station a free man. He orchestrated the whole thing, including leaving the note for Joey, but managed to avoid being implicated directly in it himself. Delko promises him it isn't over. Ryan Wolfe, worried that his career as a CSI is indeed over, punches his locker in frustration as Horatio looks on from the shadows.
Body count: 2
The Crimes:
Victim(s): Jacob Richmond; found hanging from under a raising bridge with two gunshot wounds through his eyes.
Suspect(s):
Joseph Salucci, biggest mob boss in Miami
Caesar Morales, last person to see Jacob
Professor Myers, teaches a film class at Dade University
Norman Stein, movie producer
Patrick Wilder, script writer
Ben Williams, script writer
Path of evidence:
From the field:
- Joker card in victim’s pocket, suggesting mob activity
- Velvet rope used to hang victim post mortem, suggests weapon of opportunity, and that it’s from a club
- Missing velvet rope from The Burgundy Club and 9mm casings found nearby
- Tread marks found, saying that the victim was shot in the car meaning part of the primary crime scene was missing.
- Victim had his food checked for poison because he was paranoid that Salucci would kill him.
- The test form with the victim’s blood on it connects to a film class that a Professor Myers teaches. He says he kept the forms in his trunk, and when he opened it, there was a large blood stain there.
- Stein and Morales had a fight (according to Stein) and he says that’s how his DNA got on the velvet rope.
- Stein’s upcoming movie poster was a replica to the crime scene.
- 9mm round in the professor’s trunk
- Ear bud cover in professor’s trunk, which connect Wilder & Williams.
- Script was also written by Professor Myers, which gave exact method that the victim was killed.
- Morales worked for Salucci at one point. 9mm found in his home.
- Stein receives more of the script which indicates that the club owner would die and that the mob would plan another murder on “the snitch” and Stein fears for his life.
- “The Snitch” is Morales, not Stein, and he’s found dead at the club. His death ruled out Stein and Wilder as suspects. Williams is found at the scene with a deck of cards. Williams confesses to the murder of Jacob Richmond with Wilder as his partner and that Morales asked them to do it.
- Salucci
From the morgue:
- Victim shot through both eyes, through and through (9mm)
From the lab:
- Brown flakes found on victims lips, identified as tobacco leaves from a cigar.
- Bullets found in victim are identical to ones found at a homicide case the previous year, with the suspect in that case being Joseph Salucci.
- Recording form with blood on it matches to the victim’s. Form connects to a class in Dade University, FS-320, which is a junior film studies course.
- Epithelials on velvet rope matched to Norman Stein
- Tox screen revealed that victim had GHB in his system.
- Cigar was dosed with GHB
- Striations with the gun from Morales place match the ones at the scene
- Only one fingerprint on the gun that doesn’t match to anyone
Personnel issues:
Ryan gets his eye checked out after Horatio gets onto him about it. He learns that the nail may have caused an infection that the antibiotics didn’t get. He’s at risk of orbital cellulitus, and the doctor gives him another antibiotic, but warns him if it doesn’t work, he may have to have surgery and risk losing his sight.
