Rizzoli & Isles

Stop!

Careful.

Okay.

This is truly magnificent.

I don't know what to say.

I do... yuck.

Cavanaugh's gonna kill you for dragging this hunk of junk in here.

This is a Gia Dupont original.

I should've brought you to more museums.

Then maybe you'd appreciate art.

What, so a decomposing pinto is art?

Least you bought american.

You know, I bet you could've gotten

a Ted Williams original for what you spent.

I don't know that artist.

He drove a home run 502 feet into the bleachers at fenway.

You put that ball on display, you'd have grown men weeping.

Ohh! It's too bad we have a case.

- I could stare at this for hours. - Me too.

Don't touch.

3x03- This Is How the Heart Breaks

I hate taggers.

That's not tagging. It's graffiti.

- Same thing. - No, it is not.

Wow. What a powerful piece of street art.

What a powerful example of felony vandalism.

Jane, this is contemporary art.

Says the woman who paid $50,000 for old pinto parts.

Banksy's street art starts at $100,000.

You don't know who that is.

Yes, I do. He's an urban artist.

And I wouldn't pay for his old pinto parts, either.

- Frankie? - Yeah?

Come take photos of all this vandalism

for the graffiti task force, all right?

You got it.

He a witness?

Says he was working late in his gallery, heard some yelling.

I just thought it was a couple of homeless vets,

you know, squabbling over a shopping cart.

Why were you working late?

I'm preparing for a big showing of my art.

Oh. Detective Rizzoli would want to attend that.

She's a budding art enthusiast.

- For real? - For not real.

Wh... go help Korsak.

We just saw this in a different medium.

You've seen my work?

So, you're admitting to felony vandalism?

No. I did not put those... posters up.

We catch you defacing property,

you won't have another art show, okay, pal?

Survived Fallujah to die in the streets of Boston.

Victim is Bernard Avery, 29.

He's still warm. Rigor hasn't presented.

Some nasty wounds.

Vultures go through his stuff already?

Sad.

We've got about 300 homeless vets on the streets of Boston.

Sharp-force trauma...

Chop wounds, puncture wounds.

Well, hey, look at you. Bold.

You ready to call the weapons?

- You thinking two weapons? - Maybe two killers.

No, there's only one set of shoe impressions.

Right.

Those couldn't possibly be bloody footprints.

Rondo! Yo! Vanilla! Over here!

Come on, man!

Rondo! Come back here!

I got a tip on your murder,

but your 5-0 bro trying to act like we ain't even family here!

What's up?

This better be good, Rondo.

You are gonna want to promote me to homicide, Vanilla.

One of my C.I.S knows who the killer is.

Wh... how many you got?

As many as you need, baby.

Yo, Justin.

- General Rondo. - Perimeter's clear, my man.

"General"?

You sure she's not Taliban, sir?

You can trust her. She works for me.

- Don't you, private? - Wh...

Work with me, Vanilla.

Yes. General Rondo here...

tells me that you can I.D. the killer?

Lance Corporal Justin Brown, ma'am. Yes, I can.

Sergeant Avery was K.I.A.'d

by an insurgent... dressed in force recon.

Take this. It contains classified intel.

Really?

I'm telling you... he saw something.

The kid was a marine special ops.

I got you, my man.

Your intel is safe with me.

Man, homicide's hard-up.

Economy's getting to you, too, huh, Vanilla?

You know what? When you bring me a real witness,

I'll bring you some real money.

Centimeter and a half deep. Help me turn him over.

Mm-hmm.

So, let's see.

Stab wounds, bruises, gashes...

that could be three different weapons.

Not necessarily.

The bruises here were likely caused by a rounded instrument.

Yeah, that could be from the handle of a hammer.

The stab wounds could be from the claw,

but it doesn't explain these massive gashes.

The gashes are consistent with a cleaver.

Or an... ax. Maura...

What if the murder weapon had an ax on one side

and, like, a narrow spike on the other?

What does that look like?

Does that look like a tomahawk to you?

Well, there hasn't been a murder in Boston by tomahawk

since the Pequot tribe attacked the colonists.

Yeah, but our victim is a vet. He's a marine.

They issue tactical tomahawks to marines.

Would that explain these injuries?

Got a fresh one for you, Dr. Isles.

Guy collapsed in a cab on his way to Logan.

EMTs pronounced him.

Put him on this table. Thank you.

Dennis Rockmond, 37.

Ooh. Kind of hot... for a dead guy.

Hmm.

Maura.

- Maura! - What?

- His penis has a pulse. - Oh, my go... he's alive!

He has an obstruction in his airway,

it might be a bronchospasm. Where are the EMTs?!

How far away are you?

Five minutes. Maura, do something.

Look, someone needs to perform a cricothyrotomy.

Oh. What about you?

You're here. You could do it.

- Find me a slender tube. - Where?

- In the drawer. - You have a lot of drawers.

Any tube that can create an airway... a-a straw.

Straw. You want a milkshake?

- I need a tube! - Okay! Okay! Um, okay.

Pen. I got it! I got a pen!

Oh, god. I hate working on live people.

- What if I kill him again? - Maura, just do it.

Okay.

Oh, come on. Come on.

Maura, look. I think you did it.

You're okay. You're alive.

2 milligrams Salbutamol. He's having bronchospasms.

Well, that was exciting.

You think we should bump fists?

Oh. It is nice to save someone that handsome.

Wha... really?

So if he was ugly, you would have let him die?

Of course not.

Listen, get to work on this other dead guy, okay?

Oh, Maura, check his pulse first.

Well, I think our murder weapon may be a tactical tomahawk.

- We had them in 'Nam. - To cut through the jungle?

Pshh. To cut through people.

Maybe our victim had a tomahawk.

The military started reissuing them in 2004.

Well, let's check his records.

Hey, I heard you and Dr. Isles brought a zombie back to life.

How'd you know?

- News like that travels. - Yeah... hard and fast.

Does the fascination with your ding-a-lings ever end?

- Nope. - Nope.

I hope we're not looking at a vet-on-vet murder.

Here's Bernard's military record.

It's clean. Right there...

three combat tours, honorably discharged.

Any arrests since he's been back?

Trespassing, couple of street fights,

public drinking, and disorderly. No convictions, though.

We got any pictures of his marine squad?

Yeah.

There he is... holding his tomahawk.

If he brought it back, it wasn't in his shopping cart.

Zoom in on the guy on his right.

That looks like Rondo's C.I. Justin.

Lance Corporal Justin Brown.

Got his tomahawk strapped on.

Yeah, we got our first suspect. Print that.

Bernard Avery's widow's here to see you guys.

Korsak, come on.

Come on, Frankie. Come help me pick up a murder suspect.

Do you recognize any of the other men in your husband's squad?

That's Justin... his best friend.

A lot of his squad was from home.

Makes it harder if you have to...

see them die.

Is that what happened on the third tour?

They were on patrol. They only had a week left.

And there was a suicide bomber who blew himself up.

- A lot of them died. - I'm sorry.

When Bernard came home, he barely spoke, except to Justin.
