Rizzoli & Isles

Jane: MAURA.

THAT'S YOUR SECOND CUP OF COFFEE.

Maura: THIRD.

I WAS UP LATE LAST NIGHT.

WORKING OR DATING?

WORKING -- ON A POEM FOR MY WRITING CLASS.

MM. THAT SOUNDS LIKE FUN.

WELL, IT ISN'T.

I'M REALLY STRUGGLING WITH THIS ASSIGNMENT.

WELL, JUST KEEP IT SIMPLE --

YOU KNOW, "THERE ONCE WAS A MAN FROM NANTUCKET."

WHY ARE YOU TAKING A POETRY CLASS?

JUST TRYING TO GET MY MIND OFF THE KIDNAPPING

AND FOCUS ON SOMETHING POSITIVE.

AH-CHOO!

AND IT'S MAKING YOU SICK.

BUT DON'T WORRY. I HAVE THE PERFECT HOME REMEDY!

OH, NO, MA, COME ON. NOT THE ORANGE GARLIC NONSENSE.

IT'S NOT NONSENSE IF IT WORKS.

THE LAST TIME SHE DID THIS TO FRANKIE,

HIS FACE BLEW UP LIKE THE ELEPHANT MAN.

OKAY, THAT'S TRUE, BUT THAT'S BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW

YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO REMOVE THE GARLIC FROM THE ORANGE PEEL.

YES, WHO WOULD'VE THOUGHT STICKING GARLIC IN YOUR EAR

WOULD CAUSE A STINKY, NASTY REACTION?

ALL RIGHT, PUT THIS IN YOUR EAR,

AND I PROMISE YOU YOUR SINUSES WILL BE CLEAR BY LUNCHTIME.

YEAH, AND I PROMISE YOUR HEARING'S GONNA SUCK ALL MORNING.

[ CELLPHONE RINGING, VIBRATING ] OOH. GOD BLESS YOU.

UGH. THANK YOU.

WELL, AS LONG AS IT MAKES ME FEEL BETTER.

RIZZOLI.

DR. ISLES.

HELLO?

HELLO?

MAURA.

YOUR EAR.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO USE MY MOTHER'S CRAZY HOME REMEDIES

JUST TO BE NICE.

WHAT IS A LAZY-BONE MELODY?

NEVER MIND.

WHO'S BEEN EATING AN ITALIAN FRUIT SMOOTHIE?

IT'S MY MOTHER'S ORANGE-GARLIC "SINUS REMEDY."

SHE HAS A CURE FOR EVERYTHING.

MM-HMM. WHAT DO WE HAVE?

GUNFIGHT. ONE DEAD.

WITNESSES?

SURE.

NOBODY'S TALKING.

YOU KNOW THE DRILL. IT'S AN ETHNIC NEIGHBORHOOD.

NOBODY TRUSTS THE COPS.

WHAT IS IT, A DRIVE-BY?

MORE LIKE GUNFIGHT AT THE O.K. CORRAL.

WE GOT 5 .45 CASINGS.

THEY MATCH THE WEAPON FOUND IN THE VICTIM'S HAND.

YEAH, A .22 HERE, SO, OKAY,

WE GOT ONE ON THE SIDEWALK, ONE ON THE STREET.

THIS ONE WASN'T MUCH LUCKIER.

OH, SO OUR KILLER WAS HIT, TOO.

I PUT OUT A BOLO TO ALL THE HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOMS

TO REPORT ANYBODY COMING IN WITH A GUNSHOT WOUND.

OKAY. LOOKS LIKE HE WENT THIS WAY.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

UH, THE CASHIER AT THE CORNER STORE DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING,

BUT I CHECKED THE SECURITY CAMERA,

AND IT CAPTURES A YOUNG WHITE GUY

WITH A GUN RUNNING OVER THAT WAY.

AND THE TIME MATCHES.

WE'LL GET THAT VIDEO TO NINA.

MAYBE SHE CAN PULL A CLEAR SHOT OF THE GUY'S FACE.

YEAH.

LET'S GET A PHOTO OF THE VICTIM OVER TO THE GANG UNIT,

SEE IF HE'S GOT ANY CONNECTIONS TO ORGANIZED CRIME.

YEP.

THAT'S A BIG BOY.

WHAT'S THAT?

WHAT CAN YOU TELL US?

OH, OUR VICTIM SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN BROUGHT DOWN

BY A SMALL-CALIBER BULLET.

HAD TO BE A PERFECT SHOT TO DROP SUCH A BIG GUY.

THE BIGGER THEY ARE, THE HARDER THEY FALL.

DO YOU HAVE AN OFFICIAL CAUSE OF DEATH?!

WHY ARE YOU YELLING?!

BECAUSE YOU PUT FRUIT IN YOUR EARS!

THE ORANGE PEEL IS GONE, AND MY SINUSES ARE CLEARED.

CONGRATULATION-- REALLY? SERIOUSLY?

THAT CRAZINESS WORKED.

LIKE A WONDER DRUG. ALL RIGHT.

SO, OUR VICTIM WAS KILLED

BY A SINGLE .22-CALIBER GUNSHOT WOUND TO THE HEART.

ShotSpotter SAID THAT HIS .45 FIRED THE FIRST 2 SHOTS.

SO THE VICTIM WAS THE AGGRESSOR.

IT APPEARS THAT THE OTHER GUY WAS REACTING IN SELF-DEFENSE,

BUT, YOU KNOW, WHO KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED

BEFORE THEY STARTED SHOOTING AT EACH OTHER

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET?

ARE YOU ANY CLOSER TO I.D.'ing HIM?

NO. WE RAN HIS PRINTS THROUGH AFIS

AND DIDN'T GET A HIT.

AND WHAT ABOUT THE VICTIM'S GUN?

STOLEN FROM A GUN STORE IN SOUTHIE SIX MONTHS AGO.

DID YOU FIND ANYTHING THAT COULD TELL US WHERE HE CAME FROM?

WELL, I'VE GONE THROUGH HIS CLOTHES,

BUT THERE IS NOTHING DISTINCTIVE OR UNUSUAL.

WHAT ABOUT HIS BOOTS?

HIS BOOTS -- WE FOUND DIRT, OIL,

GUM,

BIRD DROPPINGS,

AND TOMATO SAUCE WITH SUGAR -- POSSIBLY PIZZA --

ON THE SOLES.

WELL, THAT'S FANTASTIC.

HE COULD BE FROM ANY NEIGHBORHOOD IN BOSTON.

I DID REMOVE A SMALL PIECE OF METAL

WITH A PLASTIC COATING FROM THE BOOT.

WE'LL RUN SOME TESTS AND SEE IF WE CAN DETERMINE ITS ORIGIN.

ALL RIGHT.

WELL, ANYTHING YOU CAN FIND WILL HELP

'CAUSE, SO FAR, ALL WE HAVE

ARE TWO JOHN DOES SHOOTING AT EACH OTHER.

HEY.

HEY.

NINA PULLED A GOOD IMAGE

OF THE SHOOTER'S FACE FROM THE SECURITY VIDEO.

YEAH? UNIFORMS SHOWING IT TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD?

AND THEY JUST FOUND SOMEONE WHO THINKS THE SHOOTER

LIVES IN A NEARBY BUILDING WITH HIS MOTHER.

WITH HIS MOTHER?

I KNOW, RIGHT?

JUST THE THOUGHT GIVES YOU THE WILLIES.

WHAT?!

WE'RE FROM BPD.

WE'D LIKE TO ASK YOU A FEW QUESTIONS.

I'M WORKING HERE.

LISTEN, WE'RE NOT INTERESTED IN YOUR BUSINESS.

YEAH, 'CAUSE MY BUSINESS IS MY BUSINESS --

NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.

OKAY, UH, DO YOU RECOGNIZE HIM?

NO.

YEAH, WE DON'T KNOW HIM.

UM, LOOK, I'M DOING MASSAGE HERE.

HE NEEDS TO RELAX SO I CAN MAKE MONEY, YOU UNDERSTAND?

UH, PEOPLE SAY THAT HE'S YOUR SON.

I DON'T HAVE SON, OKAY? I'VE ANSWERED YOUR QUESTIONS.

UNLESS YOU WANT TO PAY FOR HIS MASSAGE,

NO MORE QUESTIONS.

MAYBE WE SHOULD DISCUSS THIS DOWN AT THE STATION,

WHERE THERE ARE FEWER DISTRACTIONS.

AND MAYBE YOU SHOULD TALK TO MY ASS!

I DON'T LIKE HAVING A DOOR SLAMMED IN MY FACE.

SHE IS HIDING SOMETHING.

SHE WAS WORKING. ON A NAKED MAN.

I TELL YOU, IF WE COULD GET A WARRANT,

I'D BE BACK THERE RIGHT NOW.

I DON'T KNOW.

UNDER DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES, I MIGHT LIKE HER.

MAYBE WE SHOULD LOOK AT YOUR JUDGMENT.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD TALK TO MY ASS.

OKAY, WHAT DO WE GOT ON OUR MASSEUSE?

HER FULL NAME IS KATRIN ULMANIS.

SHE'S 46 YEARS OLD.

SHE CAME TO THE U.S. FROM LATVIA WHEN SHE WAS 21,

GOT HER CITIZENSHIP, AND THEN HIT A ROUGH PATCH.

WHAT'S HER FAMILY BACKGROUND?

THERE'S NO RECORD OF HER EVER BEING MARRIED

OR HAVING ANY CHILDREN.

SO THE SHOOTER IS NOT HER SON.

NO, SHE WASN'T LYING ABOUT THAT.

UH, BUT SHE HAD SEVERAL ARRESTS FOR PROSTITUTION

AND PETTY THEFT,

AND IN THE LATE '90s, SHE DID A SHORT PRISON STINT.

SHE BEEN IN ANY TROUBLE LATELY?

NOPE. HER RECORD'S BEEN CLEAN FOR THE LAST 15 YEARS.

DID VICE EVER INVESTIGATE HER MASSAGE BUSINESS?

SHE'S A LICENSED MASSAGE THERAPIST

WITH A FIVE-STAR RATING ON YELP.

"KATRIN HAS JUST WHAT YOU WANT --

FIRM HANDS AND SOFT TOWELS."

WELL, WHAT MORE CAN YOU ASK FOR?

OKAY, WHAT ABOUT OUR VICTIM'S PHOTO?

DID THE GANG UNIT RESPOND TO IT?

UH, THEY'VE NEVER SEEN THE GUY.

I JUST SENT OVER THE IMAGE OF OUR SHOOTER.

MAURA'S GOT SOMETHING.

I NOTICED AN UNUSUAL NODE ON THE VICTIM'S THYROID.

WE TESTED IT AND FOUND HIGH LEVELS

OF RADIOACTIVE IODINE PRESENT.

OKAY.

AN ANALYSIS REVEALED RADIOISOTOPE I-29,

WHICH IS A BY-PRODUCT OF NUCLEAR FISSION

AND HAS NO MEDICAL PURPOSE LIKE I-123,

I-124, I-131 --

MAURA.

OKAY.

IT IS A KIND OF RADIOISOTOPE

THAT WAS COMMON AFTER CHERNOBYL.
