wiping the cup clean. He puts a few drops of some green chemical to a Q-tip and wipes the cup
with it, and stops when the chemical starts to bubble. He wipes it off and finds the word ZELCO
on it.
Next we see Danny, Stella and Scagnetti walking towards a group of hockey players. Stella
introduces herself and asks for Steve Samprass. Steve moves forward, and the take his aside for
questioning. They tell him that Evelyn was found dead at the rooftop of his apartment building,
and he says he had nothing to say. He couldn’t believe she was dead because they were getting
back together. Stella asks why they broke up, he tells her he was getting a lot of heat from
his teammates because of Evelyn’s condition. But he realized that he wanted her back so he
wrote her a letter. He recalls the day she sculpted his face and tells the detectives that it was
what made him write the letter, and he knew it worked because Evelyn had left a message on
his phone saying she’ll be coming over. Danny asks what time, and Steve said around 6pm. He
usually was out from practice by that time, but he had to stay late for a meeting. Stella tells him
that although he had an alibi, she’s still going to talk to his teammates and check the answering
machine to confirm. Meanwhile, Danny takes notice of the ice skates one of Steve’s teammates
was carrying over his shoulder, then looks at Steve’s. Danny bends down and says he’s going to
have to take all the ice skates. ”I have an idea.”
Back at the lab, Mac opens the box containing Regina Bowen’s case evidence to help Aiden
in her quest to give the victim justice. He looks at the testimonies and the photos, and then sets
his sights on Pratt’s hair sample. He takes it out of the envelope, and he is shocked to find the
broken seal. It dawns to him that Aiden attempted something unethical and stares into space in
disbelief. Stella walks in and notices his expression. Mac tells her to shut the door and shows
her the seal. Stella doesn’t believe Aiden would tamper with evidence, but Mac says Aiden is the
only one working the case. He now must decide on what to do with Aiden’s misconduct.
Somewhere else in the lab, Flack catches up to Hawkes and tells him that the dead plastic
surgeon had three law suits against him for medical malpractice, with damages worth millions.
The plaintiffs referred to the victim as ”a butcher with a medical degree”. Hawkes takes a protein
bar from the dispenser, then Zack comes in with toxicity results on the victim, who tested positive
for aspirin. Hawkes finds that odd because there’s no indication the doctor was in pain prior to
the attack, so Flack thinks that maybe the doctor was an addict. Zack also informs them that
the unknown brown substance on the victim’s shirt is tanning bronzer.
Next we see Flack down at the police station interviewing one of the plaintiffs, who tells him
to go ahead and say what animal she looks like. Flack stammers ”cat”, and the woman tells him
that the victim said he could fix it. She went to him for a little eye lift, and now she looks like
”a freakin’ cat!” Flack asks if she decided to get even, she says she decided to get a lawyer and
sue the doctor, who settled for 1.7 million dollars. ”That’s a pretty good chunk o’ change,” Flack
remarks, and we now see him talking to another plaintiff - a man who’s face was kind of droopy.
The man says that he deserved every penny of it after the victim damaged all the nerves on his
face, and hearing of his death gives him great joy (”If I could smile, I would”). Flack asks him
of his whereabouts on the day of the murder, and the man, whose name is Donald Scott, says
he was in the courthouse making a plea for his client’s release. He shows Flack his ID which he
swipes every time he enters the courthouse. Flack sees a picture of Scott before the operation,
and Scott bitterly says ”Which Donald Scott do you think is more handsome?” Flack asks if he
has to answer that question, and we see that he is now talking to the last plaintiff, a woman
whose lips seem to be drawn back to a smile, and asks if she has to answer his questions. ”If
you wanna make this easier,” Flack tells her and she resigns. She tells him she was asking 5
million dollars for the damages but the victim wouldn’t go above 2 million. Flack then notices
discoloration on her hand, and she tells him she has a pigmentation disorder called Vitiligo, and
when asked if she uses tanning bronzer to mask it, she says sometimes and asks what it has to
do with anything. Flack informs her that traces of tanning bronzer were found on the victim’s
shirt when he died. The woman then admits to having a settlement meeting with the victim and
that she grabbed the victim’s shoulders in anger, but she was nowhere near Grand Central. Flack
asks for her left shoe, which she hands to him, and compares to the photo of the print on the
stuffed bear. She asks ”what’s the verdict?”, and Flack replies with ”Let’s just say you got a lot to
smile about.”
At the lab, Danny has lined up all the ice skates and is sharpening the blades one by one,
making sure to collect samples of the metal shavings. Later, he complains how the computer is
