CSI: Miami

We should have these parties more than once a month.

I would, but Mina tends to get jealous.

I love you, Chief

but if anybody should be jealous, it's you.

Who's that guy?

Hey, Chief...

I didn't know you were into guys.

What guy?

Daddy?

So two nights ago he has a party.

High-end guest list, very private.

That was the last anyone saw of him.

Housekeeper arrives 20 minutes ago.

This is what she found.

Ex-Chief of Detectives.

Left to make the big bucks.

Consultant with security at every major casino in town

and couldn't even protect himself.

There's only one interpretation for this:

"Kill the pig."

And what about the rest of his family?

No sign of the wife.

What about the daughter?

Housekeeper assumed that she spent the weekend

with the grandmother.

Assumed?

She's gone.

And VOLKSWAGEN.

On the road of life

there are passengers and there are drivers.

His wife and daughter are missing.

His silver Cadillac DTS is also missing.

We're looking for any signs of forced entry in the house.

Any signs of ransack

that's not associated with the party. Okay.

We need serious damage control.

When the media gets a hold of it

it's going to be bad for morale all around.

Watch your step.

I'll take the downstairs.

Yeah, I'll be above you.

Looks execution-style.

At least one shot to the back of the head.

A lot of bruising around these handcuffs.

So he probably fought back.

Without a doubt.

Found a shell casing.

Looks like one of ours.

Nine-millimeter. Standard issue.

So where do you suppose the Chief keeps his gun safe?

We're in.

Thank you, Scott.

What do you got?

.38.

Nice.

Pearl handle .25.

Clear?

Still looking for that .9.

So you think the Chief might've kept

his signature piece someplace else?

"For 25 years of distinguished service."

An honor like that. Keep it in the case.

Yeah.

So I'm thinking that the wife might be in on this.

Why didn't she plan better?

Pack the kid's clothes. What?

The nanny told me that she only took one shirt...

one the kid wouldn't even wear.

Security guard.

No party list

but he did see each car that left

the night of the party and morning.

Chief Rittle left around 5:00 a.m.

5:14 to be exact.

You saw Chief Rittle leave?

Yeah, he was with his wife and kid.

And he had his baseball cap and sunglasses on

like always does.

So you saw a baseball cap and sunglasses.

Did you actually see the Chief's face?

Grissom.Well...

Actually, I didn't.

Brass found the Chief's Cadillac.

Who found it?

In-house security. Blue jacket.

First time he saw the car was Saturday.

Chalked the tires twice.

Saw the bulletin on the Chief and called us.

Any bodies, Joe?

I already checked inside the car.

We're waiting on you to check the trunk.

Whoa.

Excuse me.

Who is this?

"Chief Rittle"?

What is his connection to the Chief?

I don't know.

But if he has gunpowder residue on him

could be our shooter.

Okay.

Florida Highway Patrol called.

Several motorists saw a girl

matching Sasha's exact physical description

walking along an access road.

In Florida?

Miami-Dade County.

Chief was shot Friday night.

It's a two-day drive if you don't stop.

It's national news

with national attention.

I'm not surprised we're getting call-ins.

Well, if it is our little girl

she's got evidence on her from two Vegas homicides.

One of us should be down there

to process.

Take Warrick. I don't think he's ever been to Florida.

She's seven years old!

She's wearing a pink shirt!

She was last seen by a motorist there!

She can be two kilometers in either direction.

Think of this area as a quadrant. Divide up.

You, north. Got it!

You, south.

All right, this way.

Let's go.

Clear out!

Watch your back!

Sasha?

Sasha.

My name is Horatio Caine.

I'm the head of the Crime Unit.

Horatio?

Yeah.

That's a funny name, isn't it?

My mother named me

after a famous writer named Horatio Alger.

Ever hear of him?

Is your badge real?

Yeah.

Yeah, that's real.

My daddy's a policeman.

I know that.

I knew that.

They're looking for me, you know.

Me, too. Me, too.

What do you say we sit here and get found together?

What a day.

Burgundy sedan. Caucasian female.

Age 32. Traveling with a Caucasian male

indeterminate age.

I got a female in distress.

I want the APB to extend the whole state.

Panhandle to the Keys, yes, sir.

Good.

Horatio Caine.

Catherine Willows.

Caine.Brown.

Child Services has sent a doctor out.

All right, let's just be clear.

This is a Las Vegas case.

This is our victim and we do the processing.

Okay, I didn't say he processed her.

I just said he was here.

I appreciate the respect.

You sure about that?

Does she know about her father?

Not yet.

Well, I'd like to get started processing.

Can you show me who you found?

Okay, I found her right in here. And...

this is the young lady right over here.

Hi, Sasha.

I'm Catherine Willows.

And...

I need to ask you a few questions.

Okay?

My kit.

Did the man touch you?

He hit my mommy.

Did he hit you?

Did he hurt you in any way?

He acted like I wasn't there.

Well, you know what always happens to bad people?

They leave behind a part of themselves

and that's how you can help us find your mommy.

Now, I need to look

underneath your fingernails.

You want to show me what's in your hand?

It's okay.

Where did you get that?

Go! Run, Sasha, run!

I ran out after they drove off.

I picked that up.

I bet it felt cold when you picked it up.

No.

No... hot.

Hmm.

You're tricking me.
