[ both ] chicken pot pie diet! me too! lisa, did i tell you i'm on the... [ male announcer ] soups so indulgent, you'll never believe they're light. 100-calorie progresso light soups. how'd it go? just three more sessions. well, i can drop you off. a call came--i gotta... well, then, let's go. i told her i wasn't getting any better by myself.
12:01 pm
(farley) ashley gardela. 18 years old. her stepdad's a cop. water haven p.d. he's on his way. friday night--she left the hamptons to come to queens? yeah, it is a reverse party commute. found her wallet in a dumpster down the street. that's a pricey handbag for a cop's kid. [sigh] it's a nice car. brand new smell. guess the killer was facing her. he struck her...here. the right side hard enough so her head would hit the steering wheel. then he strangled her with this cell phone charger. surprised that mugger didn't take that phone.
12:02 pm
it's brand new. she drank something sweet. the stamp on her hand-- it's probably from a nearby bar. attractive girl, short skirt... alone, drunk. easy target. detectives goren, eames. officer ray wiznesky. officer. sorry for your loss. this is gonna kill her mother. (goren) officer-- do you know why your stepdaughter was in the city last night? i have no idea. she was a good girl. you might get some prints off that purse. let's stay on top of that. right. nypd--you've got it covered.
12:03 pm
i'll stay out of your soup. not at all. look-- any help you can give us we'd appreciate. like did she have a boyfriend? yeah. i don't think so. these kids hang out in groups, you know. ashley drives an expensive car. designer clothes, handbag. she works, and what she earns, she spends. tries to keep up with the city kids who weekend in the hamptons. they throw a lot of money around. bmws. $500 bottles of champagne. just different from us, that's all. i was just thinking that maybe... she hooked up with one. it's the summer. i got a lot of o.t. yeah. i wasn't keeping up with her social life. maybe if i had... our 13-year-old daughter's home alone with my wife. i gotta get back. traced the stamp on ashley's hand. pier bar on center boulevard. (amos) she had a different i.d., i swear. that's not what this is about.
12:04 pm
again, was she by herself? she came in alone. frat boy bought her drinks. got grabby. she left, he followed. do you remember a name? um, i remember attitude. he was so drunk he left his credit card. is this your haul for the week? for the night. we keep 'em 48 hours. then we cut 'em up. ah. here you go. dean howard. bedford college. home of the bedford beavers. hmm, our eager beaver was buying ashley drinks all night? maybe he felt owed. yeah, i wanted to hook up with her. she was hot. she was trashed. so you followed ashley out of the bar to her car? no, no. i offered her a ride. she blew me off. she said i wasn't old enough or rich enough for her. you cut yourself? i--ow. i caught it in the cab door. a cab? ah... i thought you said that you offered ashley a ride? i did. she blew me off. so i took the tunnel back into the city, tried to salvage my night.
12:05 pm
that's when my car got towed. we call the impound lot, they'll confirm your story? here, i'll save you a phone call. i-- plus, i used the atm at planet hollywood. you did have a bad night, dean. look-- whatever this chick said i did, i didn't do. tell her she owes me 80 bucks for that sparkling sake. ashley said that you weren't rich enougfor her. it sounds like she already had a sugar daddy. probably the guy that kept calling her cell phone. o canada. who has o canada as their ring tone? a canadian sugar daddy? you sure ferris bueller's alibi checks out? his easy pass has him in the tunnel ten minutes after he buys her last drink. okay, the brand-new lexus she was driving. how'd she pay for it? company car leased to raines advertising in water haven.
12:06 pm
she's mr. raines' assistant. jason raines. he's married to-- kelly sloane-raines, supermodel. i still have her first swimsuit edition. their beach house was featured in the style section last month. e article said he was from toronto. ashley's cell phone. o canada plays every time jason calls. it's his exclusive ring tone. he call her last night? her call log didn't list him, but her luds did. seven times. last one at 2 a.m. his calls were deleted from her cell around the time of her death. that's half clever, which sounds about right for a trophy husband. some trophy. he marries kelly sloane and cheats on her. man marries a model, he's not looking for a soul mate. you said the girl's stepdad was a cop? yeah. office ray wiznesky. so she's family. one of ours. how'd he react? he kept it together. stoic. he offer up raines? well, if ashley's seeing raines and wiznesky knew, he might've tried to take care of things on his own.
12:07 pm
go make a condolence call on raines. i'll talk to the water haven p.d. make sure they keep an eye on the stepdad. eames-- this is your idea of taking time off? i appreciate your concern, captain, but i'm fine. [phone ringing] hello. yeah. honey--
12:08 pm
something wrong? that was the water haven police. ashley--she was... she was found murdered in the city. oh, my god. i'm, uh... i'm gonna have to go to the office and help them if i can. yeah. of course. (eames) so this is how the other half lives. it must be nice. raines advertising, follow main street to the water's edge. blinds closed in the middle of the day? [knocking] jason raines? nypd.
12:09 pm
we need to speak to you. this is not a good time. mr. raines-- i'd advise you to get down! drop the gun. he murdered my ashley. officer wiznesky, drop the gun. drop the gun! okay. okay. all right, step away.
12:10 pm
12:11 pm
12:12 pm
12:13 pm
phew. officer wiznesky is overcome with grief. we'll handle this as a local matter. he's my partner. your department got a heads up from our captain we were coming out. they should have kept wiznesky away. i'll check into that for you. as for him... you're looking in the right place. i need you here right now. wiznesky wanted me to write a suicide note. he was gonna shoot me and make it look like i killed myself. he thinks you murdered his daughter. yeah. he's insane. you could press charges. no chance. i have to live here. local cops-- this is their fiefdom. how long has ashley been working for you? uh, not long. what? six months?
12:14 pm
it's very cozy here. it's, like, intimate. not a lot of chae for privacy. a good eye line between the two of you. it's called an open plan. where were you last night, mr. raines? had to work late in manhattan's-- excuse me. didn't want to fight the friday traffic, so i slept over. we keep a condo near lincoln center. this is sparkling sake. this is an ad agency, not a convent. ashley drank it friday night. and she stocked my mini-fridge. does your wife has a lot of issues with you working with ashley alone? you know, in this, um, open plan? kelly and i are very happy. detectives, it's been a long day, do you mind? ashley work with you friday night?
12:15 pm
yes, she left early. she was going to a party. she say where, or who with? she used to date some, uh, local loser. brian...murphy. i think he has a record. now, if you'll excuse me, i've got... i better clean up the mess here. i was arrested for pot once. you left out three duis, brian. ashley got busted all the time. but her stepdad's on the force, so no record. how'd you get that shiner? i don't know. i was wasted. at the party, the one ashley left? she say where she was going? no. ashley was all about lying. creating drama. with that damn cell phone glued to her ear. i mean, even when we were hooking up. how long ago was that? awhile. six months. when she started working for raines. right. working. paid her 60 bucks an hour. to answer the phone? okay, thanks.
12:16 pm
so you said that ashley thought that she was too good to be an assistant. she designed jewelry. shoshanna has dresses. paris has purses. uh-huh. ashley actually believed jason was gonna set her up in business. as if "the smile" would ever let that happen. "the smile?" oh, his wife. okay. what a mistake that marriage was. supermodel? whatever. she's three years older than him. she knew all about their affair. same way everybody knew. high school graduation, kelly was a keynote speaker. brian went right up and told her. how'd she react? she just smiled. i'm sorry you had to come all this way, detectives. especially since i didn't really know ashley. you'd met her, mrs. raines? call me kelly. i had met her once. i went to pick jason up on our way to a benefit. she seemed lovely. (goren) you and your husband
12:17 pm
are very generous with your time. we've been blessed. we try to pay it forward. got a lot of local causes: heal the bay, south fork breast cancer, high school keynote. i chair a female empowerment group for teenage girls. the school asked me to say a w words. we understand brian murphy had a few words to say to you as well. yes. ashley had left him. he projected his hurt onto jason. sorry. you mean that he told you that your husband was having an affair? this is a small town. i've learned to ignore the rumor mill. i just try to keep-- smiling. hmm. no one wants to hear you're happy. your husband said that about you too. you know, that you were-- [clicks tongue] uh... happy. [short laugh] that's a handsome family that you have. thank you. yep. piper's six.
12:18 pm
sam's ten, and jenna, wow. sixteen. (goren) and she's from your first marriage. sam, my third. but jason's been a true father to both of them. he had a different reputation before you two were married. and he loves me for giving his life balance. your husband, uh... spends a lot of time working late hours in the city, huh? well, he was working long hours lately because we are starting a new business. a new company. jewelry? home design. sloane-raines style. jason told you? no, but we did hear that ashley was going to be doing your jewelry design. i'm the company's sole designer. can i offer you some more lemonade before you go? i am terribly sorry, but my pilates instructor is waiting.
12:19 pm
raines and kelly are starting up a design firm. somehow, ashley thought it would be her big break too. when i told kelly, she didn't even blink. this guy's lucky he's not dead. how's his alibi? shaky. he says he was in his condo. doorman says he might have been. a guy like this-- i doubt this is his first affair. why turn to murder now? maybe because she was threatening to out him. ashley emailed him five days ago. "you told me you respected my talent. "it's devastating to learn "our relationship was just about sex. "is that why you hired me, jason? "my lawyer wonders what your company's investors would think about all this." (ross) she was playing hardball. maybe he swung back. bring him in. you son of a bitch! she was my assistant. that's it, kelly. i swear to god. you were gonna give that slut a job as a designer. maybe you should take a pill, kelly. oh, get out! we'll talk when-- get out! you better take these. 'cause you're not coming back.
12:20 pm

12:23 pm
anything that was said was clearly under duress. intoxication. not the actual beliefs of my client. in vino, veritas. there's another phrase in italian: mi e scappato. it means it slipped. (hobart) either way, it was done under the influence of alcohol after water haven police threatened my client at gunpoint.
12:24 pm
officer wiznesky's the one who should be in jail. water haven p.d. has taken away officer wiznesky's gun and put him on restrictive duty. now can we get back to your client's relationship with ashley gardela? this time, the truth, huh? ashley seduced me. you've got to be kidding. this is the first time i've ever done anything like this. it was... a terrible mistake. uh, what happened that night? ashley was supposed to meet me. she never showed. so she stood you up. that's why you called her cell phone? i was looking for her. last calls went to voicemail. i waited for her all night at the four seasons. (hobart) he was in his room from 11 to 6 a.m. you can verify that with the hotel. oh, we will. this time, he didn't lie. the electronic key registered he entered his room at the four seasons at 11:18.
12:25 pm
he made several fruitless calls to ashley on his cell. and then stopp dialing pain, and began dialing pleasure. he accessed the in-room adult entertainment at 11:58. he ordered barely legal coeds: part 2. and then he hit the minibar hard. he ordered a bacon cheeseburger from in-room dining at 4 a.m. checked out at six. he left himself a humiliating electronic trail, but it alibis him. [phone ringing] ross. raines claims this is the first time he's strayed. he's officially ving a bad week. i was a pawn in jason raines' game. i was naive, trusting, i fell for the lies of a sexual predator. once he got what he wanted from me, he moved on to ashley, my best friend. did jason kill ashley gardela? he's a creep, not a killer. (reporter) any words of advice for kelly raines?
12:26 pm
stay strong. (reporter) will this help your career, nicole? i've gotten calls from playboy and maxim. several talent agencies. (goren) she's right. raines isn't a killer. but the real killer deleted raines' calls from ashley's phone. he deliberately pointed us in that direction. it's someone with a lot of anger towards ashley and raines. brian murphy. he dated ashley. he blames raines for their break-up. (eames) he seems to have goen over ashley's death awfully soon. going somewhere, brian? uh, yeah. fishing.
12:27 pm
[sigh] underwear, socks. beer. no bait, no fishing poles. i'm visiting my cousin in bellport, okay? cops told me to go, so-- water haven police told you to run. officer sajak. hello. ashley's dad's partner. so why did sajak ask you to lve town? said that jason pulled some strings, got off. and i was next on your list. he tell you why you were next on our list? so you were at the party with ashley that night. well, maybe you saw her leave to meet raines. you decided to follow. that's not what happened. where's u go after the party, brian? nowhere. look, you want to talk to ashley's stepdad if you don't believe me. he and sajak busted up the party after, like, midnight. they knocked me around. why would they do that? wiznesky was pissed. picked up emily wandering the street. emily. ashley's little sister.
12:28 pm
half-sister. wiznesky didn't tell us about the party. no. he also didn't mention he found out ashley left his 13-year-old daughter with a drunk teenage boy. i wonder if he told his wife. ashley told me she was taking emily to the movies. um, i wasn't feeling well that day. but you knew they went to a party. of course. emily always tells me the truth. she said the beer tasted like soap. (eames) your husband must have been unhappy. if ray was upset, he didn't let on. of course, he never lets on these days, so... the tea that you're drinking. that's, uh... it's herbal tea. mm-hmm. burdock, sorrel, and slippery elm. and that's a stent, isn't it? for chemo? breast cancer. metastasized to the liver.
12:29 pm
must be difficult for you now that ashley's gone. i lost ashley a long time ago. your husband and ashley-- how did they get along? he tried. you know, she wouldn't let ray in. she was six years old. very attached to her own father. even though he ignored her completely. she was searching for... a father in jason raines. ray can't stand those people. cidiots, he'd call them. idiots from the city. after she started seeing raines, things just got worse between them. (emily) what's going on, mama? nothing, sweetheart. everything's fine. (goren) you must be emily. i'm detective goren. this is detective eames. (emily) my mother can't talk to you. my dad wouldn't like it.
