Mac walks at night, spotting a possum by flashlight. Flack shows him Kevin McBride, the mutilated victim. A skateboarding kid found him. Hawkes is going over the body while Mac puts TOD at 36 hours ago. Mac goes upstairs and tries to figure out where the victim was dragged from. Stella finds the crime scene separated by the East River. The house is on a barge.
We’re back on the East River as Danny takes a NYPD boat out to the barge. The house looks old and like its seen better days. He exchanges some banter with Lindsay and notes the house came from Staten Island (HOME BOROUGH!) It was going to a stockbroker and not Richmondtown? That’s a crime, considering how old the house appears. Danny figures Kevin was left behind by an unsuspecting moving crew but Stella wants to know why he was in the house.
Sid gets poor Kevin’s body, pulling trace off it. Kevin’s family comes in to identify the body. Mac asks if there are any tattoos or scars on the body. Daughter tells of a scar on Kevin’s finger. It confirms it is him and Daughter is smart enough to realize it’s because they don’t want to reveal the face. Wife breaks down.
Stella, Danny and Lindsay comb through the house. Stella finds a shell casing, making the others wonder if there’s another victim. Det. Angell interviews Kevin’s assistant, who is upset and had a manicure. Angell then tells Flack she met his sister when her beer bottle collided with the police car’s windshield. Turns out she’s hanging with the wrong crowd and wasn’t hauled in due to being Don’s sister. Flack isn’t pleased.
Sid continues going over Kevin’s body while Lindsay examines some trace, including piece of a picture with words on it. Danny tells Lindsay the moving crew all came back clean. She tells him the picture is of Kevin, spots something and then goes off.
Stella receives a phone call saying the fisherman’s death is an unsolved case and not to be a hero. Meanwhile, Lindsay ruffles through the coffee mugs and notes one has the same code as on the picture. It’s a bar code that brings her to a website. She goes off to explore it as Stella talks about our Rat Fisherman from the Indiana Jones and the Amulet of Rudy Giuliani episode. She remembers our evil friend at the Greek embassy and Danny wants to get to him.
Hawkes discovers Kevin was munched on by a Virginian possum. Sid can’t tell what killed him, just that it was blunt force trauma. Sid has more questions than answers but Hawkes finds marks not from the possum but possibly a murder weapon.
Adam is coughing and reveals the carrot found at the crime scene was turned into a pipe. Talk about organic. The shell was used to make the pipe and not kill another victim. And Adam got DNA off the carrot. Flack goes to meet his sister—who has the worst New York accent ever. He tries to bring up her meeting with Det. Angell but she starts to reminisce about trips to the shore. It doesn’t work. He warns her not to use his name as a “get-out-of-jail-free” card. She makes a joke and tells him to lighten up.
Stella walks into a drug paraphernalia store. He panics but she’s more concerned about his DNA, not his bongs. He toked up in a house on Staten Island that was being moved. Though that shot is more of a Manhattan street than a Staten Island street—trust me on that. Daughter, Ella, cries to Mac about taking her father’s things. He tells her they’ll give it back once they catch the guy.
Flack gives Danny a bloody hammer. And Staten Island cops confirm our druggie’s story about jumping out of a house. Lindsay is frustrated about the code. Flack recognizes it and takes her to Sam’s bar. He reveals that Sam has been fired and it looks like someone has a drinking problem!
FISH! The type used for manicures, like the one the secretary had. And Tanner, our druggie, used to live in the house until his mother sold it. Nice. He says he went back to reminisce and maybe take a hammer to it for a bit. He swore he never saw the dead guy. Lindsay finds a SecretU, where people can send their darkest secrets. Mac is confused as to why. Lindsay just offers: “Confession is good for the soul?” Hawkes is still running DNA while Adam notes that the card stock was dragged across a floor.
Mac takes a blow dryer to the floor boards to shrink the wood and get the card. It reads “I’ll tell her if you don’t.” Ominous. Lindsay reads an IM conversation between KMAN and Lola57. He’s been having an online affair. He sends her a picture and she cuts off communication. He tries to reach her and Mac thinks Lola found out Keviin was married. And she sent the e-card. Question is: Did Wife (Annie) know?
Flack pleads with his sister to let him in. She looks worse for wear and refuses. He plays a song for her—the one she was thinking of in the bar. Sam looks really bad. Flack walks away. Mac and Hawkes watch the walk-through video as Lindsay runs in with the information about Lola57. He looks serious and walks into a room wallpapered with the secret from SecretU. And it’s Ella! She’s Lola. How Electra.
Mac believes Ella was trying to prove her father was having an affair, so she became the other woman. She confronted him and killed him. However, Ella says she had met someone online, someone she clicked with. She was shocked to realize it was her dad. The card was the only thing she did to get him to stop—not murder. Stella reveals that the hammer’s mitochondrial DNA comes back to Ella, but both she and Mom have alibis.
Stella re-watches Mom’s walk-through video alibi. She notices something and pulls Annie in. Stella and Hawkes re-enacted a scene from the video and proved Annie changed the time codes. She really shot it at 2:30 PM, not 10:30 AM. Annie had discovered the SecretU card and confronted him. Ella watches through the window and doesn’t want her mom to know who Lola57 is. Mac tells her it isn’t her fault. She just wants to feel important to someone again.
Sam leaves her apartment and big brother Don follows her. She’s in an apartment, talking to someone. She says she’s the screw-up of her family. She says her last drink was 20 minutes ago. She’s at AA! She admits she’s an alcoholic. Flack looks guilty and upset. He meets Det. Angell and kisses her. Stella receives a package—a dead rat. Eww. She wants to join Danny in breaking some rules.
Next week: CSI:NY reaches a century! And they are killing off everybody named Mac Taylor! Also, Chris Daughtry is on.
And who is liking the chemistry between Flack and Angell? And who wishes they’d put Lindsay and Danny back together or did I miss an episode?
Also, anyone else confused about Richmondtown?
