claims she just went back upstairs. The waitress lets Lindsay take her costume, but refuses
to give her prints. Hawkes finds that the cause of death for the wild cat was indeed carbon
monoxide. The cat might have been gassed as a test for the real killing. A piece of nylon found
under the cat’s claws reminds Stella of a window with a torn screen at the apartment complex
where it lived. All this leads them to Sharon Cates, who not only lives there but also volunteered
for the marathon, handing out water cups. They see she has a bruise on her leg – in the exact
shape of the broken piece of Richard Keith’s chair. She claims she didn’t see Reid falling, and she
states: ”It’s unforgivable when an athlete’s injured.” Sharon is a photographer, and her studio
is wheelchair-accessible. She also uses carbon monoxide to brighten the food she photographs
for a living; there is a canister of it on a table. One of the photos she’s taken recently is a sushi
close up. All the evidence points to her. At the lab, Stella finds a tiny piece of skin stuck to the
canister. Meanwhile, Danny is back to the feathers. Lindsay returns from talking to Jennifer,
and he shows her one of the feathers is odd; all the others are common ones, but that one
comes from a rare Indian jungle bird. Lindsay notices the amplified image of the feather looks
strange, and she realizes fishermen use that kind of synthetic feather to make flies. They find
freshwater organisms on it, indicating it was used recently. Danny remembers Tonya’s boyfriend
saying he was visiting his parents on Beaver Kill, in the Catskills – ”Trout fishing central”, he
tells Lindsay. Brought to the interview room, Liam insists he was never in the basement. Danny
and Flack pressure him, and Danny shows him the feather. Liam laughs, there were ”thousands”
of people with feathers on at the party, but Danny explains that feather is different. Flack reveals
they found grease from the lift on Liam’s suit. Now they can arrest Liam and take his prints,
which, Danny bets, will match what they found in the murder weapon. Liam gives up. He tells
the detectives his love story with Tonya, how everything changed after they moved to New York
after college, how she became a dancer behind his back, and how things seemed to be fine again
when she became Buri Vodka’s princess. Liam says he went out of town to tell his parents they
were getting married, but then he got a phone call from a girl who told him Tonya was ”sleeping
with the vodka man”. He ran back to the club and confronted Tonya, only to have her break up
with him. Enraged, he stabbed her with the ice scepter. As Lindsay is leaving, Danny corners her
in the corridor, he wants to know what’s going on. They have this chemistry, it feels they’re into
each other, but for the whole day there was a strange feeling between them whenever they were in
the same room. ”Don’t tell me you don’t feel it, also”, he says to her. Ill at ease, she says she can’t
be in a relationship with him. He tries to convince her, says he’s talking about ”spending time
together, dinner, some laughs” – nothing as serious as her expression seems to imply. Lindsay
confesses she likes him a lot, suggesting it may be more than she wanted to, but right now she
has to deal with some ”stuff” she thought she had left behind. ”I didn’t mean for this to happen,”
she tells him. He’s visibly disappointed, but he still cares, and as she goes away, he offers his
support one more time. Mac meets Richard at Central Park and tells him his sister is in trouble.
In the interview room, Stella talks to Sharon, who’s Richard Keith’s sister; she kept her married
name, that’s why they didn’t see the connection right away. Sharon killed Owen Reid during the
marathon; it was his skin stuck to the canister. Reid was the driver who run into Richard and put
him in a wheelchair; Sharon never recovered from his accident. Mac tells Richard if he doesn’t
confess his involvement, his sister will get a life sentence. Sharon made Richard trail Reid to let
her know when he was arriving at the water station. Richard tells Mac Sharon made him promise
he’d never admit it. Sharon tells Stella how her brother was an athlete with a brilliant future;
now, she says, he’s ”already in prison.” Sharon states she killed Owen Reid in revenge for what
he did to her brother. ”Richard is innocent. He had nothing to do with the death of Owen Reid.
And I have nothing else to say.” These are her final words – and the camera closes in on her
pained face, ending the episode.
