CSI Files
Captain
Synopsis:
A man stumbles around the San Gennaro Street Festival before collapsing dead in the street while horrified pedestrians look on. Stella takes charge of the crime scene when Mac is called away to Central Park, where Lindsay is already photographing the body of Jared Stanton, who sits on a bench, upright but dead with a deep cut to his throat. Mac lists Stanton's head clear off his body, revealing that his head was completely severed. Hawkes and Flack are at the scene of an apartment fire where a ten-year-old boy, James Walker, died from smoke inhalation. Hawkes sees burns on the boy's hand and wonders why he wasn't able to get out in time.
At the morgue, Dr. Zao shows Stella that the victim from the fair was killed by a splinter to his heart. He also shows her the man's bones have been surgically enhanced--tissue from his pelvis has been grafted onto the bones of his hands, making them stronger and more lethal. Stella and Danny examine the splinter and determine it is made out of cocobollo wood. Back at the apartment, Hawkes discovers that the outlet where the fire originated has been tampered with--it was unscrewed and screwed back in. When James' devastated mother, Karen, comes in with her boyfriend, Luke Robertson, a sympathetic Hawkes gives her his card, which irritates Flack, who tells him that his job is to analyze the crime scene, not console survivors.
Stella and Danny go to the San Gennaro fair to retrace their victim's steps based on the food that ended up on his clothes. A trail of blood leads them to Bowery Billiards, where they find the pool hall in shambles. The owner, Maddy, tells them two men had a Matrix-style fight in the hall, battling with pool cues and martial arts moves. The CSIs survey the scene and notice a shoe print--on the ceiling. In the lab, Stella is able to match one of the pool cues to the shard that killed the victim while Danny gets a clear tread from the shoe print on the ceiling. Dr. Zao has traced the work on the victim's hands to a local hospital and obtained an ID: Greg Thompson. Lindsay didn't get anything off Jared Stanton's clothes, but she did find a memo from American Pacific Worldwide indicating the company was inflating stock prices. Was Jared a whistleblower? Mac pays the CEO of APW, Paul Martin, a visit and is surprised to notice exotic weaponry around Martin's office. Jared was his chief financial officer, and Martin denies killling him.
