CSI: NY · Season 6
Our informant is a cellmate of a suspect we convicted six months ago in connection with a human-trafficking ring here in New York City.
A little cellmate chitchat, and a convict looking to make a deal... that's hard to trust.
True, but right now, we're standing here with nothing. And I kind of got the impression you weren't here to sightsee.
It never gets easier, does it?
No. I've told parents about their dead or missing kids more times than I can count. Hell, the first time was one time too many. One day, a woman whispers thank you to me through her tears. And I realized that she just needed to know that there was somebody doing everything they could for her child. And that's what you're doing, Ray. And that's worth a phone call.
(as they gear up at the junk yard) Did you know that the oldest projectile fired from a weapon was recorded in the fourteenth century in Japan? It was fired from a very crude handheld cannon that you lit with a wick. Its sole purpose was for taking life. Seems that after 1,700 years of evolution we haven't come very far, have we?
(seeing Danny walk without help) Hey! On your own two feet and looking good, Messer.
Not bad, huh? First the wheelchair, now no more cane. Done.
Yeah. You know, that was one of the scariest moments and I'll never forget it when you said you couldn't move your legs.
When I saw the blood on my hands, I mean, I thought that was it.
Yeah, well, it wasn't your time.
Yeah, let's go with that.
(about their vic) There are 206 bones in the human body. Richard Caldrone broke 204 of them.
Well, jumping off a bridge has a tendency to do that.
Hey-o, Terrence! This has been fun and all, but you should probably get some new friends. Your boys are like walking parole violations. What's the matter, did I hurt your feelings? Did you get sensitive all of a sudd...? (Seeing Mac in the apartment)
I ain't trying to have no cop convention up in here. But you two need some quality time, so I'm gonna give you all five minutes.
Hey, let's be clear. Part of me wants to take this badge off and settle this another way.
Get out of my face.
(runs him against the wall) Hey! We're in the middle of a murder investigation and you go AWOL?!?
I can handle myself.
Oh, yeah? Is that what you're doing here in this apartment? (pulls out Flack's gun) Is that why I had to get this from Terrence? Is that why I had to have Stella triangulate your phone and Danny check the ERs to see if you turned up dead? You can keep telling people that you're fine, but that won't work.
(entering with a mug in her hands) I just finished my third cup of coffee. Figured you could probably use one.
Oh, thanks, Stella. Thought we weren't supposed to drink in the lab?
We aren't, but at some point, the human body either requires sleep or massive quantities of caffeine.
God bless you.
(about the picture of Eckhart and his wife) So what are we looking at?
Manhattanhenge.
Manhattan- what?
It's a biannual phenomenon in which the rising or setting sun aligns perfectly with the east-west grid of Manhattan's streets. Sort of a Stonehenge-meets-concrete-and-hot-dog-carts kind of thing.
Eckhart was supposed to meet his wife at Lincoln Center after work.
But when he was running late, he told her to go to the surveyor's office instead.
Figured if they were going to miss the show, they might as well be together.
So, he blamed himself as much as everyone else.
Maybe more.
Each man is the architect of his own fate.
And sometimes the fate of others.
(toasting during dinner) Here's to a great team and to getting Hollis Eckhart off the streets.
Yes. And to reminding us that life is fleeting and we should hold on to the people we love while we can.
(to Mac, after bending a vase that reveals a hidden room) I'll shoot you if you say ladies first.
Sam Harding was an inventor. This room, maybe this entire penthouse was his greatest creation.
Okay. Knowing that, how do we find Richard Lawson?
We play Sam Harding's game.
Things just got a lot more difficult.
(ominous) And a lot more dangerous.
Jones put up seed money for Harding's invention business. But it sounds like their deal eventually went sour 'cause Harding filed a suit in 1923 for patent infringement but it was dismissed. Jones comes up missing shortly after.
Sam Harding had motive to make that happen. Harding thought Jones stabbed him in the back and when he didn't win in court, he got revenge.
We just solved an 86-year-old murder. Not bad for a half a day's work.
Well, it gives us the rest of the day to tackle the remaining unanswered questions: who broke into the penthouse? And who made the 911 call?
Did you know that between 400 and 1400 A.D. there was a common belief that mummia was a potent medicine with curative powers? People used to grind up mummy parts and put them on their bodies to get well when they were sick.
(musing) Mmm, take two milligrams of mummy and call me in the morning.
(chuckles) Something like that.
Sid, I thought you had hobbies outside of work.
I take it my interest in the history of my profession and the fascinating world of the post-mortem does not strike you as an enjoyable pastime?
(to Stella) Let's take him to a Jets game this weekend
