[ dog barking]

Hey, yo! Yo, officer!

Yo! Real quick!
Right here!

[ gunshot]

[ horse neighing]

[ people shouting]

[ neighing]

[ siren wailing]

[ voices over dispatch]

FLACK:
Someone shot
a mounted officer, Mac.

Shot him right off
his horse.

EMS just got here.
I got a guy...

All right, all right,
slow down, Flack.

Just walk with me.

I heard the shot
all the way

from Sixth Avenue.

It shook the windows
in my squad car.

It sounded like
a sonic boom.

Sounds like an echo
from the weapon.

[ siren wailing in distance]

Shot in the back.

Right through
his protective vest.

We got a sniper.

♪ Out here in the fields

♪ I fought for my meals

♪ I get my back into my living

♪ I don't need to fight

♪ To prove I'm right

♪ I don't need to be forgiven,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah ♪

♪ Yeah.

[ distant sirens wailing]

Detective Flack, start
getting statements.

Yes, sir.
Emergency Services,

canvas the entire area.

Conduct roof searches
along the perimeter to the park.

Restrict all flyovers.
Get aviation to assist.

No one sleeps in New York City
until this shooter is caught.

Stella, you're with me.

Danny and Aiden, process.

We looking for
anything specific?

The bullet.
Let's go to work.

Man, this horse took a good hit.

Surprised he even got up.

We've searched every inch
of this park.

No bullet, Mac. It's like
a needle in a haystack.

Have Danny pull tapes
from all available cameras.

See if they saw something
our eyewitnesses didn't.

A half-ton animal on the loose
in Central Park.

There must've been
panic in the streets.

It'll be front page
news in the Post.

You can be sure of that.

Cause of death?

Single gunshot wound
to the back.

It pierced through
the protective vest

and exited at a downward
trajectory through the front.

Must've been
a high-powered rifle.

The rifle doesn't concern me.
It's the rifleman.

Sniping a live target

in motion is no easy task.

Sharpshooter?

I'll know for certain

after I take a look
at that vest.

The horse.

Dr. Huff, when you
examined the horse,

was there any evidence
of a bullet wound

around the neck area?

He has suffered hundreds
of cuts and bruises.

I didn't see anything on my
preliminary examination.

Certainly nothing consistent
with a gunshot.

Hey, Blue.

How you doing, boy?

I'm going to come in, okay?

[ neighing]
Take it easy.

Nice and easy.

Yeah, boy.

As you can see,
he's suffered

multiple contusions
and abrasions...

the neck, the shoulder,
and the pectoral regions.

You know,
he's still spooked.

Detective Taylor, I don't
think you're gonna get

anywhere near his neck area.

TAYLOR:
With all due respect
to the animal, sir,

we're gonna need to check
that area somehow.

I can run a CAT scan,

but I'd have to sedate him
to transport him.

I think he's been
through enough.
Dr. Huff,

this animal may possess
key evidence in the murder

of a New York City
police officer.

We need to know for certain.

[ neighing]

TAYLOR:
There it is.

See the void?

HUFF:
It's lodged
in the nuchal ligament,

near the fourth and fifth
vertebrae.

Looks like the bullet
redirected.

I'm going to need that bullet.

We can remove it
during surgery,

but I have to warn you:

removal would most likely
be fatal to the horse.

Look, I sympathize
with this animal, sir.

But unfortunately humans
take precedence in this case.

The second your request
is signed off

by the C.O. in Mounted,
we'll start the surgery.

MESSER:
Okay, center of the crime scene.

We're equal distance from
the final resting place

of the officer and the
cab and the horse.

We're at the naval where
the shooting took place.

Start scanning north and east.

BURN:
Northbound Central Park.

Eastbound Central Park.

Southbound Central Park.

And...

westbound Central Park.

Four corners done.

Let's bring Central Park
back to our lab, huh?

Aiden, three-four squad
has a DOA at Lex and 94th.

Possible homicide.
You take it. Solo.

Thanks, Mac.

Sorry, partner.

So we'll use the security
footage for geography.

We started the CAD
reconstruction

from a fixed perspective.

Place the victim first.

Right.

Gonna lay down the skid marks.

Placing the cab.

Input the trajectory
of that bullet.

30 degrees down the axial plane.
Left of the T9.

Six degrees left
of the sagittal.

Extend the line
through the officer.

Adjust the perspective.

That's the Patterson Building.

Nine stories high,
three across.

Detective Burn,
Detective Thacker.
Three-four.

We found this
wallet on him.

Lenny Starks. 19.

[ camera shutter clicking]

That's a nasty burn.

What's your name again?

Thacker.

Detective Thacker,
I need a scratch copy

of the complaint report
and the M.E. number
when it's done.

And do me a favor, will you?

Don't check out my ass

when a kid is dead
in the street.

Have some respect.

Who was the last
person to lease
this office?

The landlord is checking
the records.

Positive for GSR.

Sniper was right here.

Is that fingerprint
on the inside
or the outside?

Outside.

Inside now...

With our luck,

it'll come back
the window washer.

Think positive, Stella.

They're arranging
for a funeral

for Officer Valasquez.

It's a shame.
How are you guys
doing? Anything yet?

We're running

Touch Print right now.

You get anything from the park?

We sent the world out
and got next to nothing.

I spoke to a lot

of eyewitnesses.
I got everything under the sun.

He was shot
from a tree.

He fell off his horse
and shot himself.

One lady said aliens came down.

This city's full of nuts.

That's why we're scientists.

Richard Smockton.

Local. Has a record.

Five counts unlawful assembly.

Seven counts
of disorderly conduct.

For what?

Staging protests
for animals.

Animal activist?

Detective, you've got
to help us out

with these hansom cabs.

These horses
in Central Park

they work nine hours a day,
seven days a week.

They live in...

Save the speech, sir.

You're already
under arrest.

We have evidence
of you being

on the ninth floor
of the Patterson Building.

Office number three.

When's the last time

you were there?

Months ago.

My lease was up.

I rented the space
for my society...

We don't want to hear it.

You okay, Mr. Smockton?

You're sweating
and your hands are shaking.

I'm nervous.
FLACK:
You should be.

You shot a cop.

A... cop...?

All right, just pull
down the collar.

How long have you had

that goiter,
Mr. Smockton?

Years.

I have hyperthyroidism.

Can you hold out your hands,
please?

He's got Graves' Disease.

We can keep him in custody

until he's cleared,
but chances are

he's not our shooter.

The symptoms of Graves' Disease

are hand tremors,
perspiration,

blurred vision.

No way he's shooting
a moving target

from a nine-story building.

HAWKES:
Your victim most likely died

from significant trauma
to the cranium.

See the movement?

Fractured cranium
on the posterior

of the crown.

His head might have been in
a vise of some sort.

See the side of his face?

Second degree burns with
severe blistering

and destruction
of the epidermis.

That's a pretty
well-defined wound.

Contact burn?

Most likely.

The pattern doesn't
look irregular

enough to have
come from a flame.

There's shifting
on the edges.

We sometimes see this

with iron burns in abuse cases.

Now, second degree burns
tend to heal

from the edges inward.
Healing on this vic

hasn't set in yet.

That means he was
burned recently.

Exactly.

What are these two voids

on his face?

Something definitely

obstructed the burning
of this region.

I'm going to examine
this tissue

microscopically.

See if I can't find
what burned him.

Thanks.

TAYLOR:
Facial recognition.

Courtesy of Identa-Feature
software.

Debuted in Super
Bowl XXXV in Tampa.

You got a bead on somebody?

I'm working on it.

I'll let you know

why in a minute.

Measuring the distance
between the eyes,

width of nose,

the jawline

and the chin.

Matching facial construction

against the NYPD

mug shot database.

Willie Chancey.

Bench warrant for
unlicensed peddling.

Bag vendor.

What made you single him out
of the crowd?

You found his cell phone.

They don't call me

eagle eye for nothing.

Take a look at this.

That's seconds before
the altercation.

It's almost as if he's
lining himself up for something.

MESSER:
Picks a fight
for no reason.

Maybe there is a reason.

Back it up.

Okay, stop.

Shooter's angle came
from here...

Cell phone fighter was in
the same line of sight.

You have an address on this guy?

Willie Chancey.

Prior address, no good.

He's a bag vendor, right?

Pull up his bookings.

They tend to work the same area.

Give me a cross street.

FLACK:
Hey, how you doing?

You got any Kate Spade?

Son of a bitch!

[ tires squealing]

Mr. Chancey, you missing
a disposable cell phone?

Yeah.
I lost it the other day.

We found it in the park.

Seems you lost it doing

one of your uppercuts.

Look, some British tourist--

you know, I...
he was harassing me.

I sold him a handbag.

You know, one of the
expensive designer kind.

He wanted his money back.

Of course it's
a knock-off, man.

It's only 20 bucks.
Hey, I want...!

We have you on camera.

We know you picked
a fight with him.

Not the other way around.

Y'all got it all wrong, man.
He came at me.

Who were you on the phone with
just before your altercation?

Some woman.

Wrong number.

We traced your cell phone
earlier.

It also came back
to a disposable phone.

Imagine that.

FLACK:
Your last call lasted
18 minutes long.

What, was she giving you
phone sex?

Yeah. You want the number?

This guy's good to go.
Get him before the judge
for his warrant.

Mr. Chancey.

Let me show you my limo.

Tom Mitford.

Just admiring
your military photos.

Beirut' 83.

So, a District Attorney

in my office.

Should I close the door?

Yes.

So I got a call
from the Captain
over at Mounted.

He says that you're going
to put down that horse.

The horse is going into surgery

to extract a key piece
of evidence

in an ongoing

criminal investigation.

I know the widow
who donated that horse.

She was married
to Officer Como

who was killed
in the line of duty.

Don Como-- seven years ago.

Shortly after he died,
Mandi bought a horse

and donated Blue
to the Mounted Police Unit

in memory of her husband.

I need a favor.

What kind of favor?

Mandi and
her daughter

are flying back from California
on the red-eye.

I don't want them
coming home to
a dead horse.

They've already
lost enough.

I can't do that, Tom.

It's an open case.

The horse is scheduled
to go into surgery

the second I file
the paperwork.

Look, I'm not asking you

to stop the
investigation.

I'm asking for morning.
That's about six hours from now.

I can't promise anything.

If we find a weapon five minutes
from now, all bets are off.

I'll take what I can get.

Stella, got your page.

I got good news
and bad news.

Bad news first.

Okay, Willie Chancey's
back on the street.

Lawyered up.

Went to court,
saw a judge.

Cut him loose with
a date to appear.

Probably in Siberia by now.
The good news?
Flack went back in

on Chancey's cell phone.

Remember we couldn't
get a signal?

He got a live one

about a half an hour ago.

ESN of your mystery
cell phone?

The electronic serial number
is 9-8-D

9-0-0

7-1

4-6-2.

Live signal in Elmhurst, Queens.

With a lot
of terminals and runways.

He's heading toward LaGuardia.

BONASERA:
Let's make a call.

WOMAN:
Ladies and gentlemen...

please turn off all cell phones
at this time.

[ phone ringing]

[ ringing continues]

You going to answer
that phone?

[ ringing continues]

Hello.

Hang up. NYPD.

Mr. Brown, how do you
know Willie Chancey?

I don't know any
Willie Chanceys.

Mr. Brown, Willie Chancey was on
a disposable cell phone,

much like the one you had
in your possession,

minutes before Officer Valasquez

was shot by a sniper.
in cold blood,

from the ninth floor
of the Patterson Building.

The last call he made was
to you. Can you explain?

I don't know
what you're talking about.

Probably a wrong number,

That's funny.

That's exactly what
Willie Chancey said.

TAYLOR:
You were on your way

to Los Angeles. Why?

I was going to see my girl.

What's her name?
Jessica.

We're going to need to search
your residence, Mr. Brown.
Then you'll need a warrant.

Already got one.

Mr. Brown, I have officers

sitting outside
your residence.

They say they don't see

a car out front.

That's because
I don't own a car, sir.

How'd you get to the airport?

I took a cab.

Sure you did.

Put your hand on the table.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae?

Baker's yeast.

What's this kid doing
with baker's yeast

burnt into his face?

That's not all he has.

I prepared this one

for you next.
What's this now?

Cornmeal.

A mixture of burnt

and partially burnt cornmeal.

Baker's yeast and cornmeal.

That narrows
it down, right?

There's got to be
at least a dozen restaurants

within a block of Lexington
and 94th Street.

No, I'm not thinking
restaurants, though.

See how they're

individually burned?

If baker's yeast
and cornmeal were part

of a recipe,
the two ingredients

would have been
baked together.

But they weren't.

The cornmeal granules
were burnt for a reason.

I'm thinking pizza.

What's the closest
pizza parlor

in the vicinity of Lex
and 94th Street?

[ sportscast playing]

Hey, what can I get you?

I'm Detective Burn
from the crime lab.

I need to check out your oven.

I'm going to need you
to step out of this area.

It's a crime scene now.

Hey, wait, what happened
to your hand?

I burnt it.

I work around ovens.

May I see it?

Ow...

Second-degree burns.

When did this happen?

Three, four days ago.

No, this wound is fresh.

This happened
in the last 24 hours.

Okay, I'm gonna need you
to do two things for me now.

Shut down these ovens
and take a seat.

How you doing?

Officer Burn,
may I help you?

Yeah, you can help me
by taking two steps back.

What are you, a cop?

Crime scene.

You're those guys with the
little blue lights, right?

It's called an ALS.

I don't care
what it's called.

Sir, take caution
in your tone.

Yeah... here's the thing.

Why don't you take
your microscope

and go down the street?

Shop's closed now.

Oh.

I'm sorry.

Hope I'm not interrupting.

Jane.

Not at all.

What are you doing down here?

Oh, I came to pick up
some DNA samples.

What are you up to,
Detective Taylor?

Saving the world, I presume.

Saving a horse,
more like it.

The officer who was shot
in the park?

Oh, right.

I'm making a 3-D
replica of the bullet

that's still
inside his horse.

Really?

Yeah, the animal's
scheduled for surgery

in a couple of hours.

Every hour I give him,

the more strength he might
have to pull through.

That's very noble of you.

You an animal lover?

Not particularly.

Just a scientist
with a heart.

[ machine whirring]

Still warm.

May I have it...

have it back?

Take care.

Hey.

You got something?

Military surplus
SS-109 round.

Could've been fired from
an AR-15 or M-16 assault rifle.

SS-109 is an armor-
piercing round

with a tungsten
carbide core.

It could easily pass through
the body armor of an officer.

Good man.

So, where
are you off to?

Jerald Brown's house.

You made a 3-D replica

of the bullet?

Z-Printer.

Ah.

Where's the bullet
from the horse?

Still in the horse.

Oh.

What good does this do us?

We can't get stria
off of it.

I'm doing a profile
on the bullet

to get a better understanding
of our shooter.

There's a killer
running loose
in New York City.

We can't afford to put
a delay on the case.

No one's delaying the case,
Stella.

We're not forensically
there yet.

How's that?

Well, we don't have a weapon
for one.

The bullet's only one-half

of the puzzle.
We need the bullet, Mac.

So we can run it
through IBIS.

See if we can't get a hit
to another case.

Which likely won't
give us a name.

To get this guy we need
the bullet and the weapon.

Forgive me, but taking
the bullet out of the horse

is the first thing
that should've been done.

And you should be searching
Jerald Brown's house

for the weapon instead
of arguing with me.

We need the bullet and the
weapon to make an arrest.

Plain and simple, Stella.

Until then, the horse
can stay alive

a couple more hours.

It's my call.

End of conversation.

Fine.

I'm gonna go
tear up a house.

Service issued AR-15
semi-automatic

gas-operated shoulder-
fired rifle.

Capable magazine
capacity:

five to 40 rounds.

Jerald Brown left the rifle
unmodified.

It's ready for fire.

All we need now is a bullet
to compare it to.

In Stella talk, it's time
to get the bullet

out of the horse, Mac.

End of conversation.

[ neighs]

It's okay, Blue.

Bye, Blue.

Say hello to my daddy
up in heaven, okay?

Hey, boy.

[ Blue neighs]

It's all right, Blue.

If I would've went
for my radio or my gun,

I might not have
gotten out of there.

You did the right thing.

But the second
you find something,
you call for backup.

You're processing evidence
that could put someone

behind bars for life.

You take nothing
or no one for granted.

Yeah, well, I didn't.

And believe me, this place
was no more a pizza joint

than a church in Hell's Kitchen.

A pizzeria

as a front for booking sports.

That's commonplace in this city.

So... your victim's
a sports bettor?

He's just...

He's just a kid.

All I know is
if he crossed this guy,

I'm not surprised
how he ended up.

It's your first threat, Aiden,
it won't be your last.

So...

take backup, you go back
to the scene,

you face it head on,
follow the evidence.

And if for some reason,

you need a little help
with this Nick Vicenzo,

don't forget the rule.

The surgery was successful.

We're happy to say
Blue's going to make it.

We were very careful
with the bullet.

I'll tell
my daughter
the good news.

STELLA:
Test fire on the left, bullet
from the horse on the right.

No match.

Doesn't make sense.

Got a sniper on the phone
minutes before the murder.

We found a weapon that's capable
of penetrating through

the protective vest,
and it's no match.

This case is going backwards.

Willie Chancey,

Richard Smockton, Jerald Brown.

We tested all these guys' hands
for gunshot residue

and none of them
came out positive.

Either we don't have
a shooter yet

or these guys lathered
up before we got to them.

[ cell phone rings]

Detective Taylor.

Airport security and I
have been

sweeping the parking lot
looking for Jerald Brown's car.

We found something in
Willie Chancey's car instead.

Willie Chancey.

He got shot in the trunk.

MESSER:
Hey, Stella,

come here, will you?

What's up?

Car's turned off, the
windshield wipers are on high,

radio is on full blast,

and who keeps the A.C.
on max in the winter?

What do you think, it's a trap?

Maybe a secret compartment
inside the car.

A few grand to install.

Used to hide drugs and money.

Weapons.

Let's pimp this ride.

All right, here we go.

Got a plate trap
under the backseat.

See the dent in the metal?

Nice.

[ starts engine]
I'll turn the car on.

All right, now, the traps are
usually activated electronically

by the positioning of the knobs.

How do we figure out
the combination?

Process of elimination--
starting with

the knobs
that were out of place.

In our case, the wiper,

the A.C. and the radio.

All right,
start with the A.C. on,

wipers on, radio off.

MESSER:
No.

Uh, A.C. on, wipers off,
radio on.

BONASERA:
All right, A.C. off,

radio off, wipers on.

Aw, screw it!
Just turn everything on.

Rat bastard.

[ horn honks]

AR-15,

in pieces.

Oh, yeah.

Hey, who's gonna

put it together?

That won't be a problem,
my friend.

Put your cigarettes out.

[ men chuckling]

[ sighs]

You want me to come around
the counter again?

No, actually, stay back there.

Sit down.

Take a seat.

BURN:
Put your finger

on this picture, please.

Don't look at him.

Put your finger on top
of the picture, please.

You think I did this?

You can step out now.

Thacker, could you help me
over here, please?

You got it.

Okay.

So the pizza girl burnt
her right hand, right?

That's right.

If she held the kid's head
with her right hand

and tried to close the door
with her left...

she couldn't have
smashed his head

with the oven door.

No way.

It's impossible.

Mr. Vicenzo,
we're closing

your little sports
book pizzeria.

In case you didn't know,
betting sports is illegal

in New York City, so tell
all your pizza lovers

to go to A.C. if they
want some action.

I'll be sure to do that.

I pulled two sets

of prints from the oven bar
at your pizzeria.

They came back

to your pizza girl and you.

What do you have to say
about that, Nick?

It's my joint.

Must've been when I heated up
those slices for lunch.

Right.

Well, according to
the preliminary autopsy report,

Lenny Starks suffered
moderate head trauma.

You slammed
Lenny Starks' head

with the oven door.

Lenny walked three blocks

and later was stabbed to death.

By you.Whoa. Whoa, whoa.

Wait a minute.

Stabbed?

Me?

Yeah...

I gave Lenny a little lesson
in paying up,

but I didn't stab him.

I knocked some sense
into the kid.

You owe me ten G's.

What am I gonna do with
this, wipe my nose?!

Open the oven.

Open it!

You little degenerate.

[ man and woman screaming]

That's it.

He left on his own two feet.

You know what one of
the greatest rules is
of an investigator?

We can lie to suspects, legally.

There never
was a stabbing.

According to the autopsy report,
Lenny Starks died

from an epidural hematoma
in the posterior fossa region.

That's behind the ear,
in case you didn't know.

And you're right,
that kid did leave
on his own two feet.

Three blocks later,
he died on 'em.

That kid experienced
delayed deterioration.

Like a boxer who took
too many blows.

You killed him.

And now it's your turn
to go down the street.

Investigation's closed.

Run this, please.

BONASERA:
Here we go again.

Test fire on the left.

Bullet from the horse
on the right.

It's a match.

Jerald Brown.

You were in the Army.

Sergeant. E-5.

Qualification:

marksman.

Years of service: two.

Dishonorable discharge

for willfully disobeying
orders during Desert Storm,

where you were
reduced to an E-1.

What do you expect from
the white man's army, man?

We had hostiles in the building
five klicks away from base camp.

So we went in and took them out.

And we know for a fact

they murdered
ten women and children.

According
to your file,

you disobeyed a direct order.

The chain of command

is sacrosanct, Mr. Brown--
I'm a Marine; I know.

Endangering
lives against

explicit orders
is unconscionable.

I did what I thought was right.

And I'd do it again.

You did it again.

Why don't I start the story
for you?

This is a print
we found

on the rifle inside
Willie Chancey's car.

Your print.

We found Willie,

your accomplice, dead
in the trunk of that same car.

We suspect he became a threat,
and you had to shut him up.

Your military record
has set you at an
intelligence level

of Interim Secret-- that's
about as smart as they come.

Now, I've confirmed that
you and Willie Chancey

were on disposable cell phones
with each other

minutes before the murder.

Willie was the lure.

What's up, old man?
What's up?

Hey! Yo, Officer, right here!

You were the shooter.

[ gunshot]

And finally...

this is the bullet
that killed

the officer you shot.

Along with the
test fire bullet

from your AR-15.

Ballistics...

confirms.

Willie wanted to go to the cops.

He got cold feet...

so I shot him.

But he hated cops
as much as I did.
Why?

My father-- Willie's uncle--

was accused of drug possession
in '03.

Completelytrumped-up charges

by a cop that we now know
was crooked.

Maybe you can say he
was in the wrong place
at the wrong time.

Before he could even get
a court date,

he was frickin' shivved in jail,

over a card game.

He should've never been there
in the first place.

What did the mounted officer
have to do with it?

Was he the one
who put your father away?

Willie and I just picked
any pig cop.

An eye for an eye.

You shot a New York City
police officer.

He wasn't just a cop.

He was somebody's son.

He made somebody proud at home.

When you shot him
through the back,

you shot those people
through the heart.

From where I stand...

you're the one that
should be put to death.

No trial. No jury.

Eye for an eye.

Hey.

I'm sorry I gave you a hard time
about the horse.

Forget it.

We haven't had a fight
like that in a long time.

Reminds me
of the old Mac Taylor.

What old Mac Taylor is that?

The one who let his heart out of
his chest every once in a while.

You're a fine CSI, Stella.

I can honestly say, I wouldn't
do this job without you.

Yes, you would.

You just wouldn't be as good.

Maybe.

Friends?

Friends.
