Rookie Blue

- Hey. - Hey. Oh.

You had anything to eat?

Thank you. No, thanks.

I'll get something in a minute.

Man, I hate this.

Was really hoping that he'd be on a beach somewhere.

Eight hours ago, we found the body of Brian Gowdy

in the trunk of his car, beaten to death.

Gowdy went missing after taking an unknown subject

for a test-drive of Gowdy's black XJ8.

The day before Gowdy was killed,

Dr. Milo Howard reported a suspicious man

who showed up to test-drive Dr. Howard's black XJ8.

All right, both these vehicles were listed

and text messages confirm that it's the same buyer.

Okay, we might be looking at a serial predator

who's hunting his victims online.

Dr. Howard, our eyewitness, describes the male suspect

as Caucasian, mid 30s, dark hair, tall, about 195.

They met at a gas station on Lake Shore.

The suspect showed up in a gray Sedan.

The next day, Brian Gowdy, our victim,

met the suspect at the same gas station.

Now, we don't have a visual on the killer,

but we do have some security footage

showing a gray Cruze Sedan pulling into the lot.

Partial plate... Alpha India bravo November.

All right, now, Peck and Collins,

you're gonna be on the Sedan.

And Epstein and price, you'll be with our victim, okay?

Find out everything that you can. McNally?

All right, this is footage of the deceased

that was pulled from an ATM at a gas station.

Right now, this is the last known sighting

of Brian Gowdy alive.

- Excuse me. Staff? - Yeah.

Just let me.

I'm sorry about your brother, Mr. Gowdy.

You were close?

Yeah, we were very close, and...

you know, twins often, uh, grow apart as they get older,

but we... we didn't.

We were... we were best friends.

Did you know your brother was planning to move to Costa Rica?

I... I know he'd b... been there a couple of times, but...

Mr. Gowdy, do you have any idea who might have done this?

Uh, no, it...

Look, Brian was the kindest man in the world.

I have no idea who would want to do this to him.

Dex, you need to pick Leo up at 4:00

or I need to call Stella, so can you call me back,

let me know you got this message?

Thanks.

Dex didn't even show up to mediation this morning.

- You're kidding. - No.

Well, that's good for you, isn't it?

Yeah, you should've seen the guy

scribbling on his judging pad.

That didn't sound good, did it?

Look, you didn't want to fight this battle,

but you still need to win it.

Thank you.

Welcome.

Hey, Chris, what do you got?

No other divisions have reported any other suspicious test-drives,

bodies in cars, or any other criminal activity

related to online auto sites.

So unless the suspect's just ramping up,

it's not a serial predator.

Yeah, but why was Gowdy a target?

I don't know. Single, no psycho ex-girlfriends,

well-loved by his staff and students... I...

Well, keep looking.

I'm telling you, there is nothing to find on this guy.

Oh, come on, everybody's hiding something...

parking tickets, prescriptions, husbands.

I was being hilarious.

You're still mad about Wes.

Chloe, I mentioned the guy.

Mentioned him because you're obviously still upset about it.

If I didn't mention him,

then I'd be suppressing it, and that's not healthy.

Fine. I won't mention him.

You find anything yet?

Out of all the squeaky-clean guys we investigated,

this guy is the squeakiest.

Well, we think he's targeted,

so he's got to be hiding something.

I don't know. Tap into your duplicitous side.

How do people hide things?

I know you're suppressing it right now.

Whoa. 150 license plates beginning with "AIBN."

I'm gonna make you an online dating profile.

14 of those plates belong to gray Sedans.

And I don't believe in online dating.

Oh, it's real.

And I think I'm the best person for the job

because I know you so intimately.

Great.

I'm gonna say that you sleep with your eyes half-closed,

like a decaying corpse.

Because I do.

And that you've never lost a sock a day in your life

to a sort of creepy degree because you are a sock tracker.

God, women are just gonna eat this up.

Hey, you're single now. I can make you a profile.

Talk about how you floss your teeth with your hair.

Not anymore.

Ooh, I could put on that video,

you arguing with the parking guy

with your mouth still frozen from the dentist.

No, you don't have a video of that.

I will always have a video of that.

Got anything?

Uh, yes.

We have eight gray Cruze Sedans

with plates starting with "AIBN."

Witness says the suspect is a Caucasian, 30s, dark-brown hair.

Yep.

Traci, that could be any... body.

It could be Nick.

I have an alibi. Nope.

Nope.

Wait. There's one.

Sean Harrison, 34 years old, lives at 59 Dalmay Street.

Okay.

Let's see if he'll come in for a chat.

All right. Okay.

Sean Harrison.

Yeah.

Something going on?

Can you let us in? It's cold outside.

Mr. Harrison, we believe a gray Sedan registered in your name

may have been used in the commission of a crime.

Crime?

Are you here by yourself?

Yeah. Unless...

Kelly? Kelly?

I guess she's still at work.

Would you mind joining us down at the station?

- Are you arresting me? - No, no.

We just want to ask you a few questions.

Can I at least get dressed?

Yeah, of course, as long as you don't mind

if Officer Collins escorts you.

I don't do the boys anymore.

Mr. Harrison, do you ever buy gas

at a station on Lake Shore?

Nope.

That's odd because your car was seen there three days ago.

- Seen by who? - A guy selling an XJ8.

Officer McNally, you want to tell Sean

what happened after that?

The next day, another person, Brian Gowdy,

arranged to meet the same person at the same gas station

to test-drive his XJ8.

- I don't know what to tell you. It wasn't me. - Brian Gowdy.

You know him?

Never heard of him.

What do you do for a living, Mr. Harrison?

I'm a contractor.

Uh, we'll be right back.

Dr. Howard, thanks for coming in.

That's not him.

Are you sure?

He matches your description,

and the car you saw is registered to him.

Well, I'm sorry, Detective,

but that's not the man that I took on a test-drive.

Okay.

Sean's wife is here, McNally.

Dr. Howard, thanks very much.

All right, let's get the rest of your statement.

Kelly Harrison?

What's going on with Sean?

I'm Detective Swarek.

This is Officer McNally.

Um, we just have a couple questions.

Okay.

Does anyone else have access to your husband's car,

anybody that fits your husband's description?

Larry.

Larry? Who's Larry?

He didn't tell you about Larry?

No, he didn't tell us about Larry.

They're blood brothers or something

'cause they grew up in the same group home.

Far as I can tell, it means they watch football together

and Larry stays in our basement whenever he's out of prison.

He's staying in your basement right now,

and he just got out of prison?

Yeah. Millburn Penitentiary.

Sean promised he'd changed.

So, if I was getting run down

for a crime I didn't know anything about

and I had this guy, Larry Chisholm...

McNally, would you read out that sheet, please?

1998, misdemeanor assault, 12 months.

2001, assault causing bodily harm, 24 months.

2004, assault with a deadly weapon, four years.
