You know, if you found millions of dollars of gems in the street?
Oh, come on, guy. You wouldn't keep some?
No, no, no, I... I'd give 'em back. Mostly... I mean... maybe keep one or two.
Know what happens to people that take things that don't belong to them, right?
Other people are getting hurt. Doc! Come here, we got an ethical debate going on, and Adam is failing miserably. What do you do if you come across a fortune of precious gems that don't belong to you?
Sheldon HawkesI'd give them to the guy with the knife to my throat.
Sheldon Hawkes
The reptile remains we found in the basement were consistent with Bungarus Fasciatus, also known as the Banded Krait.
Where did they come from?
Sheldon Hawkes
My guess: Chinatown, black market. 15 minutes on the Internet, anybody can learn how to extract the venom. It's neurotoxic and fast-acting, causing near-instant muscle paralysis in humans. The lucky ones die fast.
Sheldon Hawkes
Slow and excruciating respiratory failure. As the diaphragm becomes paralyzed, the victim suffocates. Death can take days.
So these guys were literally trapped inside their bodies. I mean, unable to move, unable to talk.
Allison Scott knew exactly what she was doing. She wanted them to suffer.
[After Sid has been injured while retrieving a bullet from a body]
Sheldon Hawkes
His vitals look good. He's a little dazed and confused but I think he's gonna be okay.
If it weren't for these he would be blind right now.
Sheldon Hawkes
Well, he was retrieving the slug from our second sniper vic and all of a sudden, her head just... exploded.
Sheldon Hawkes
Yeah.
Sheldon Hawkes
There are no bank accounts under the name Michael Reynolds. No credit cards, either.
In a lot of cases like Michael's, victims just want to fall off the face of the Earth, disappear, hide somewhere no one can find them.
Sheldon Hawkes
Consistent with the method of killing.
No other prints to suggest she was being followed.
No... If this was a chase or a blitz attack there'd be signs of a struggle somewhere.
Nope. So what, or who was she running from?
Sheldon Hawkes
Ghosts.
[Flack and Jo look at him disbelievingly]
[amused] Dr. Sheldon Hawkes, did I just hear you say ghosts?
You did. Wanna know why? 'Cause that's what he said: Ghosts.
Sheldon Hawkes
A lot of New Yorkers believe this part of the park is haunted. The lake just over there, for years rumor has it, two women have been seen skating figure eights, at night. Rosetta and Janice, sisters, died in the 1800s. Apparently they just glide above the ice, if you get too close they disappear.
[amusedly scared] Shut up.
Sheldon Hawkes
Yeah. Then there was that real estate guy that got gutted by the river just east of here. Oh, and Belvedere Castle, tons of people have heard disembodied voices, and dispatch gets calls all the time.
Teenagers. Doing the nasty.
Sheldon Hawkes
go ahead, poke fun, but this area where we are, right now, some of the volunteers from the emergency medical unit won't even ride in here, they send me. I gotta be honest, there have been times when I felt something.
Sheldon Hawkes
I dont know.
Doc, come on. You can't tell me, that in your well educated mind, you don't have an explanation for paranormal activity.
Sheldon Hawkes
ok, one night, I heard a woman screaming. I get off my bike, I run towards the sound, the screaming is getting louder and louder, but when I get to where she should've been: nothing. Nobody.
Sheldon Hawkes
I don't know. I don't have a rational explanation for what happened that night. Now, it could have been my mind playing tricks on me, or maybe it was the sound bouncing of the trees; but I felt something weird here, and judging by the looks of these shoeprints, maybe our Jane Doe felt something too.
This place is so creepy. But I guess, funeral home, what else would it be.
How the hell does a funeral home go out of business?
The owners died four years ago, the left the family business to the only son, Gordon, he closed up shop apparently, but I understand he still lives here.
Sheldon Hawkes
no prints in the dust, no movement in the air.
Definately doesn't look lived in.
Since when were Stalin, Khrushchev, and Beria ingredients in water?
Sheldon Hawkes
I don't think there's 1947 calories in it either.
Where did that water bottle come from?
Sheldon Hawkes
Vics' backpack.
[Looking at the water bottle closely] Heh, Multiple Choice. 1-T-D
1947. TD. Truman Doctrine.
National Security Agency.
National Security Act, Agency wasn't formed until 1949. Everything on this bottle has been replaced with information pertaining to the Cold War.
All the answers to the test. It's a cheat sheet.
Sheldon Hawkes
That's impressive.
