CSI: New York--'Summer In The City'

CSI Files

Captain
Synopsis:

At the Dandridge hotel, a woman rises from her hotel bed and pays the male prostitute next to her, telling him he can leave. She goes to the window, staring intently out at the Empire State Building, which is across the way. Her eyes widen in shock when she sees a man scaling the building, and she makes a frantic cell phone call. The man on the building continues to climb, passing a man and a woman in passionate embrace in an office. People gather below, only to watch in horror as the man suddenly recoils and falls to his death.

Mac Taylor and coroner-turned-CSI Sheldon Hawkes arrive at the scene to discover that the fall was so hard that the man's brain was literally knocked out of his head. Detective Don Flack takes Mac to the 6th floor ledge, where body of the man, Paul Gizner, lies. Flack says the man makes a habit of scaling tall buildings and that a friend of his recorded the climb. Mac looks at the man's cell phone, which has 911 punched into it--could he have seen something that caused him to place an emergency call? Hawkes and Mac pinpoint the spot he fell from--the 34th floor and go to the window he was going past when he fell. The window, which Paul was banging on, looks in on a conference room, and Mac sees high velocity blood spatter on one of the chairs and spots an EPT test in the trash.

Across town, Danny Messer and Aiden Burns stand by the corpse of a dead man in a rhinestone bra. When Stella Bonasera gets to the scene, she scans the bra and discovers that its made out of real diamonds, not rhinestones. When Danny mentions that the name on the man's mailbox is Price, Stella realizes the man is Whitman Price, a famous designer. Danny questions Nicole Jordan, the model who wore the bra at a photography shoot the day before. Nicole tells Danny that she noticed Whitman Price leaving without his bodyguard, and notes that she never goes anywhere without hers. Back at the morgue, Dr. Evan Zao shows Stella that Price swallowed something that, when he was struck in the chest, cut into his heart and killed him within minutes. Stella wants to use sub-dermal photography to see the imprint of the hand that dealt the fatal blow. Zao extracts the object from his chest: it's a sizable diamond, the crowning glory of the bra.
