C.S.I. New York Episode Guide
guy who takes care of the horse, immediately becomes a suspect, but he denies doing it. Rita and
Carla’s foot impressions are not a match to the bruising on Bruce’s face, so Danny goes back
once more to look at the cart. Among the trace, he finds ketchup, rust and animal hair. Hawkes
notices one of the wheels has been repaired, and who repairs shopping carts? Danny remembers
the homeless guy who was trying to steal a cart at the finishing line. But if it was somebody who
wanted the cart back, why not take it? Besides, they’re looking for a woman. Danny analyses
the animal hair, Hawkes sees some lettering on the cart. Flack brings in Elizabeth’s ex-husband,
he claims he hadn’t seen her in a month. He also claims he still loves her. Lindsay tells Stella
and Mac there was trace of strawberries and champagne on the lipstick found on the tape gag.
It seems to make even less sense. But perhaps the kidnapping was not about money, perhaps
Martin was stalking Liz Grayson. Maybe she even agreed with the kidnapping. The conversation
is interrupted by a phone call: a woman matching Liz’ description has just been admitted to an
ER. Stella takes pictures of her and collects the evidence. Liz tells her the guy came up behind
her at the park, when she was getting to her horse; she was then shoved into the truck. Then
she tells Mac the guy had a knife when he opened the truck and threatened to kill her. In the
apartment, he bound her, saying he wanted money. She claims to remember he was drunk. Then
he dragged her to the couch and raped her. After that, she says, he left the knife on the floor,
so she took it, stabbed him and ran. She threw the knife in a trash can, and washed her hands
in the snow. Mac tells Stella Liz told him ”quite a bit” – but he thinks she’s lying. They go over
the evidence again. There’s no doubt she was the one bound and gagged at the apartment. But
she mentioned fighting Martin, Sid found no defensive wounds on his body. She said her hands
where taped, how then could she grab the knife? The duct tape around her wrists was sliced
clean - no way she did that by herself. And there’s more. DNA shows the semen found in her
body came from two different men – Martin and someone she was with after Martin. Having sex
with another man after being kidnapped and raped makes no sense, Stella points out. ”Or it
could explain everything”, Mac retorts. Going back to the scene, they search the street for the
knife. Mac finds it in a trash can, wiped clean. Stella finds signs that someone was standing
outside the window, looking in. Using the snow, she can determine the exact time everything
happened. Mac also finds a cigarette but on the snow. Danny shows Hawkes the animal hair
they found is from a white mixed-breed terrier. That’s a common dog – but Hawkes found out the
lettering spelled ”Delfina’s market”, a store chain that closed years before; but one of the stores is
now a $.89 market, so that’s a fairly good clue of where to look. On an alley near the store, some
homeless people have made their shelters. A white dog barks at Danny and Hawkes. Among his
owner’s belongings, Hawkes believes to have found their killer: a mannequin leg, with all signs
of being used to kill Bruce. The dog barks joyfully, and run to a guy who’s trying to walk away
unnoticed. Danny recognizes him as the one who was trying to steal a cart from the race finishing
line. The guy tries to tell them he knows nothing about it, but then he admits he followed Bruce,
trying to take back his cart. He shot him with the price gun, and lost his mind when he realized
the cart was broken – and Bruce was laughing at him. It was all he had, and they broke it, and
Bruce thought it was funny. So he hit him with the leg. Stella explains to Flack that Liz Grayson
was romantically involved with Alex Martin. The rape was actually consensual sex. Mac talks to
Liz in the interview room, and she explains how they’d meet once a month to indulge in their
sexual fantasies. Mac and Flack watch Stella interrogate Liz’s ex-husband, Terry. The fibers on
the knife match the rope in his boat; both are fairly common, he says. Stella asks him what he
was doing outside the apartment, looking inside, right when Liz was there. Terry says she can’t
prove it, she shows him she can. Stella also tells him she’s sure his DNA will match both the
cigarette but and the semen they found on Liz. He then admits he was following her, for he never
got over her leaving him. He watched everything from the window. Stella tells him he went there
to kill Martin, so it was premeditated murder. ”I wanted Liz to know I still love her”, he says. So
he went there and stabbed him. Realizing Terry would kill for her, Liz embraced him, then helped
him escape. It was all worth it, he says. Now he knows she loves him.
