11:00 pm
knocking. you were there for 20 minutes. i waited, tried calling her cell a few times. man: renner! these relief supplies are not gonna load themselves. look, i'm dying inside and i have to pretend that everything is great. i keep going over and over in my head, if only i had seen something. i'm sorry. think that's the whole story? it rarely is. dispatch, this is csi delko. i've finished up with search and rescue at the trailer park. returning to the lab. dispatcher: csi delko, we acknowledge. we have you back in service. hey. (smooches) come here, boy. come here. come on.
11:01 pm
it's okay. yeah, you're hungry, huh? here you go, yeah. that's a good boy. come here, eh. what's that on your paws? that's not your blood. here come here. show me where you came from. come on. (dog barks) (barking continues) loman. hey, tom, it's eric. what's going on, eric? yeah, listen, i got another body for you. guy's got some kind of, some kind of wound
11:02 pm
near his throat; big hole. i'll send someone out. wait a minute. tom, tom, what do bubbles mean? bubbles are coming out of the wound. eric, that means he's still alive. i checked his pulse! there was nothing! probably too faint from blood loss. hang on. all right, tell me what to do! okay, you need to make it so that he can breathe through the hole. do you have a pen?! yeah, i have a pen. empty it out so that it's a tube. then feel around for the hole and stick the pen into it. there's something in the wound. can you pull it out? yeah, i'm pulling it out right now. yeah, all right, i got it out. i got it out. all right, he's breathing. he's breathing. send an ambulance, tom! send an ambulance. hey, you're gonna be all right. you're gonna be all right.
11:03 pm
ellie's father's still here. said he won't leave without her body. where do we stand on that? still extracting debris. hope to send my results up to trace soon. okay, find me. mr. sutton? i'm not going, lieutenant. i can't leave ellie alone in this place. mr. sutton, ellie's not alone. she's with people who are doing everything they can. but i'm her father. i have to do something for her. you know what? you know what the best thing you can do is go home and be with your wife. and i'll call you when it's time, okay? this never gets easy, does it? no, it doesn't. just received the results from ellie's blood work. you should see this.
11:04 pm
are you sure about these, tom? yes. thank you. (phone beeps) natalia, the rotc commander, i need his number. travis, as a cadet, you swore to an honor code. that's right, sir. well, you broke the code. boa vista: we just got these test results back. positive for hcg? what is that? it's a hormone that's only detectable in women when they're pregnant. pregnant? i didn't know ellie was pregnant. and that is the second time you've lied to us. i didn't lie to you. i just didn't tell you. i spoke to your commanding officer. what? why did you do that? do you know what that means? we know exactly what it means. it means an automatic discharge for you if you got her pregnant.
11:05 pm
oh, my god. you just ruined my life. that's exactly what you said to her last night, isn't it? isn't that why she ended up going home? it... it'll be okay. we know what we have to do. make an appointment tomorrow to get this taken care of. travis, this is our baby. we already talked about getting married. after i get my commission. ellie, if you're pregnant, there is no commission. i don't care if you're in the military. yeah, i know. you've been trying to get me to quit for months. i just walked right into your trap. you went there this morning to get out of the trap you're in, travis. no, i didn't. i went there to apologize. really? you changed your mind just like that-- that fast? i didn't want to lose her. god, even if it meant losing my scholarship. but no one was home. i didn't lie to you about that. i swear. i want a lawyer, sir.
11:06 pm
i think that's a capital idea. found a... found a new boyfriend for you. he's really cute. he's short. maybe more hairy than you're used to. (chuckling) you got a lost dog? yeah. animal services is looking for the owners, but, uh, i just want to make sure he doesn't go to a shelter. i remember you saying how much you miss having a dog around. that's true. i do. you know, i never want to be accused of being a home wrecker, though. maybe the owners will come back. yeah. i hope so. so we've got two victims from the same trailer park. that can't be a coincidence, can it? well, don't forget we did just have a tornado. i mean, winds were strong enough to turn this thing into a projectile i had to pull out of somebody. what is that?
11:07 pm
11:08 pm
what the hell are you making here? a potato gun. why would you want to shoot a potato? because it's really fun. i used to make these when i was a kid, and i have a feeling that our parachute was shot out of something like this. what, you think this gun could shoot through a man's chest? sure you can, with enough air pressure. i've seen a potato go through the hood of a car. speaking of which, you should back up. it's been a while since i've done this. (whooshing) i saw noaa demonstrate this once, but instead of a washer, it had a probe attached to it. so this could be used for tornado research? that's exactly what it's used for. and walter ran into some storm chasers
11:09 pm
at the trailer park the other day. they were doing some research there. god, eric, it's possible that this was an accident. they might have shot the tornado, and the tornado could have shot him. problem is we won't know until we find the probe. we have no idea where that is. think the probe could be in the same place i found the parachute? in our victim? yeah. eric, that could kill him. yeah. i'm going to the hospital. call them. tell them i'm on my way. okay. at this point, i'm afraid he can't move or speak. you have a few minutes before we bring him into surgery. okay. thanks. my name is eric. i'm the one that found you today. i know this sounds strange,
11:10 pm
but we found a piece of a weather probe inside of you. there-there's something still stuck in there, doctors, they'll be able to get it out. hopefully, then, we can figure out what happened to you. but you're in good hands here. and i'll be here. i'll be here every step of the way. borrowed technology from ferrari to develop its suspension system? or what if we told you that ferrari borrowed technology from cadillac to develop its suspension system? magnetic ride control -- pioneered by cadillac, perfected in the 556-horsepower cts-v. we don't just make luxury cars. we make cadillacs.

11:14 pm
11:15 pm
about what you told horatio. okay, we can talk about that, but first, take a look at this. surgeons pulled this out of the guy that delko found. calleigh says it's a weather probe. ah. been waiting for this. kpa... hmm. "k" stands for kilo. don't know what "p.a." stands for. you know, i took a... a scale and measurement class in college. uh, we used these mnemonic devices. p.a., p.a., p.a., p.a. pa... pa is a father. your father puts pressure on you to get good grades. pressure... pascal. pascal is a unit of measurement used in barometric pressure. okay. barometric pressure. you use that in tornado research. so that means the storm hunters did shoot our victim. yeah, and i think i know how to figure out whether or not they meant to. these probes, they start recording the moment that they're launched. so if we match its first registered recording with noaa's barometric pressure data for the area,
11:16 pm
then we'll know exactly what time the victim was shot. yeah, yeah. but somebody shoots you in the middle of a tornado, could be an accident. any other time, it's attempted murder. yes. i'll pull up noaa's web site. okay. all right, first reading is 913. 913... 913-- we got a 1:52, and i got a 10:35. delko found the body at 1:00, so it can't be the 1:52. has to be the 10:35. the tornado was at 11:00. walter, this wasn't an accident. caine: gentlemen, do those belong to you? yeah, it's one of our vortex probes. after a storm, we drive around for hours looking for these things. where'd you find it? we actually, uh, pulled it out of this guy. oh, my god. that's jared. we just brought him on as a partner.
11:17 pm
you didn't mention you had a partner. uh, you never asked us. we just met the guy. he's a meteorologist at a radio station. he called us. he wanted to work with us. we must have fired the probe into the tornado and it caught a downdraft. well, yeah, that's what we thought, but turns out the data from the probe suggests it was fired a half hour before the tornado. so it's not looking like it's an accident. wait a minute. leon, wasn't that about the time that he ran off in the trailer park today? he's supposed to work our doppler, but all he ever wants to do is field research. he's always running off with the air cannon. yeah, he's weird. he... he'd always come back with his bag all stuffed and saying it was air samples, but he never showed us. and today, he never came back. you didn't go looking for him? we warned him to be back in ten. when he didn't show up, we left. the storm was pretty bad. he drove out there on his own, so we just figured he was going to his car. never figured he'd wind up dead. he's not dead. i just assumed, 'cause of the picture. wolfe: no. he just got out of surgery. so we'll have to wait till he recovers
11:18 pm
to find out what happened. well, that's great. where is he? if there's anything we can do to help him. actually, there is. where is his car? you know what? i think this tornado threw this car 300 feet from where they said it was. unbelievable. got a backpack here. yeah, grab that. the weather twins said jared was very fond of it. yeah, well, i can see why. take a look. wow. jewelry, watches. personal items. you think he's a scavenger, like that guy you caught? no, i don't think he was a scavenger. i think he was breaking and entering. he was a thief? think about it. he hooks up with these storm chasers. they go into an evacuated neighborhood. gets out, he says he's going to do research on his own. except he's breaking into houses. so he dropped this off, went back for more.
11:19 pm
right. he's not a victim. no. sorry, eric. yeah, me, too. delko: wake up. wake up, jared. yeah. yeah, that's right, we know your name now, jared. we also know a few other things, like you like to pretend to be a storm chaser so you can break into people's homes. we still don't know who shot you, but i don't even care right now, because as soon as you're able to walk, i'm gonna be standing at that door to take you to prison. (gasping): i tried... tried to what? (wheezes): stop... you tried to stop what? (monitor beeping) you tried to stop what?! get out of here. now! pressure's dropping. coming through.
11:21 pm
11:24 pm
çñ all the tornado debris from ellie sutton's body, which left us with three possible sources of transfer from the murder. okay. you mind working the tablet? not at all. first up is... ...a blade of, uh, tif-dwarf bermuda grass in her torso, in the wound on her torso. okay. center-right. got it. right there. now, you know that grass is on every single golf course in miami, so that's probably from our murder weapon. good point. secondly, we got acrylic paint under the nails.
11:25 pm
nothing odd about that, since she was an art student. all right. finally... okay. all right, right here on her face. the right side of her cheek, we got a mixture of ketchup and flour with traces of steel wool particles. steel wool particles. so maybe that was left over from breakfast? you don't eat steel wool. good point. not tasty. but you can make a homemade brass polish from a mixture of ketchup and flour. okay, now, how do you know that? it's a little trick i learned in the boy scouts. wait a minute. if a boy scout knows it, an rotc cadet would know it, too, right? my lawyer told me not to say anything. and you don't have to, travis. that's all we needed. i didn't do anything. save it for your lawyer, travis. i didn't do anything. i didn't do anything. i didn't do anything.
11:26 pm
no, you don't understand. ellie died because i didn't do anything. what are you doing here?! whoa! get out of my house! i'm gonna call the cops! (stammers): i'm sorry! i'm going, i'm going! i made a terrible mistake, okay? now! get out of here. i'm sorry. go! just go. i made a mistake... i froze. how could i tell you that? i watched that man beat her, and i didn't do anything. i'm a coward. you still want to help ellie, son? can you identify these men?
11:27 pm
that's all i need. (phone beeps) eric, listen. boa vista: can you tell us if these were the men that you saw in the trailer? yes. these were the guys. these two-- they were robbing the place when ellie walked in on them. what about this guy? what was he doing? he was the only one that tried to help her. (ellie groaning) what the hell are you doing? she's still alive! you got to call an ambulance! (ellie groaning) you-you've been robbing these places? you were supposed to stay in the truck, jared. meteorologist: this tornado touched down at 12:54... jared... jared! yeah. (ellie groans)
11:28 pm
that's what jared was trying to tell me. he tried to stop ellie's murder. but i wouldn't listen. you were just trying to follow the evidence. this isn't evidence, okay? this is bait. these guys, they put that bag in his car to try and cover their tracks. okay. well, this is not over. it can't be that hard to find a vehicle called the armadillo. well, let's hope so. (sirens wailing) (tires screech) hey. eric! whoa, whoa, whoa. i got him, h.
11:29 pm
i'll handle this, leon. think that's a good idea, ronnie? don't say anything, leon. this is your only chance. tell you what, i'll make it easy for you. leon killed them both. what the hell are you doing? i'm sorry, leon, i can't cover for you. you son of a bitch. i didn't do it! you know i... ronnie killed that girl. (thudding) i didn't know he was going to do it. well, looks like a problem of "he said, he said." sounds like reasonable doubt to me. you know what, ronnie, they're going to believe my side. you want to know why? 'cause i admit it. i shot jared. ronnie: you don't know what you're doing. well, i know i can't do this anymore. jared didn't know what we were doing. (wind roaring) operator: 911. what's your emergency?
11:30 pm
i want to report a murder. okay, calm down, sir. what's your location? (air cannon fires) i'm sorry. i had to stop him from calling the cops. but leon, jared did call the cops. that's how we found her body. take them, please. (shower running) hey. i heard you turned down the commendation from horatio. yeah, i didn't deserve that, man. saving my ass doesn't deserve a little pat on the back? that's what i've been trying to tell you, wolfe. i didn't save your life, man.
11:31 pm
i wanted to, but i let go. you don't even know what happened, do you? you know, it's because you let go of those lights, i was able to anchor myself to those pipes. so you did save my life. plus, do you realize what we've been through? an f2 tornado. that story's gonna get us free drinks the rest of our lives. so give it... (laughs) so give it here, give it here, man! ooh. i got to give you this. i can't. i hurt my... shoulder love? okay, shoulder love. shoulder love. (both groan) yeah. probably still dislocated. thanks, wolfe. you're welcome, walter. let's go. (monitor beeping steadily, ventilator whooshing) if you could talk, i'm... sure you wouldn't want to talk to me.
