Murder In The Fast Lane

CSI Files

Captain
The third episode of the fourth season finds the CSI: New York team investigating a famous gang of robbers.

According to CSI Files sources, "You Only Die Once" starts with a couple getting ready to heat things up, tearing at each other's clothes in the darkness of a penthouse apartment. The man is revealed to be Flack, his date a beautiful young socialite named Devon Maddox. They are interrupted when they hear a noise coming from the next room. Flack asks Devon whether she has a roommate who would be responsible for the sound, and when she shakes her head, he reaches for his gun.

Flack goes down the hall and sees a light on in the bedroom. When he enters the room, gun drawn, he sees a thief balancing on the window ledge, fifty stories from the ground. Flack notices the scar on the man's cheek, but he doesn't get to the window before the other man makes his move. Flack is forced to watch as the thief rappels down the side of the building.

Flack runs out of the bedroom, grabbing his cell phone and telling Devon to call 9-1-1. She seems surprised by the fact that she's had a break-in, but Flack doesn't have time to contemplate her reaction. Instead, he hurries toward the elevator and calls in that he is in pursuit. On the street, Flack sees the thief and his lookout climbing into a black car. He yells for them to stop, but they speed off, forcing him to borrow a cab to stay in the chase.

When dawn comes, we find that the news is all over the story of the latest robberies committed by the James Bond Gang. Flack's chase proved unsuccessful and the thief is still at large. Lindsay and Stella process the bedroom of Devon's penthouse as Flack looks on. Flack describes the thief to Stella and tells her that the car he was driving looked like a Lamborghini.

In the background, Devon is talking enthusiastically on her cell phone about the robbery. Flack wonders aloud if she is in shock or if her reaction is strange. Stella informs him that being robbed by the James Bond Gang will get Devon invited to a lot of events. Proving this point, Devon hangs up her phone and walks over to lean on Flack, informing him that they're on the guest list for a fundraiser. Stella notices something strange about the bedroom: the lights are on. She doesn't understand why a thief would break in during the night and turn on the lights. It's one more question to add to their list of mysteries.

Flack gets a phone call and heads to a different crime scene. Moving past the onlookers and the crime scene tape, he approaches a body. Mac and Hawkes are already here to process, and when they turn the body over, Flack immediately recognizes the scar on the man's cheek. Their thief is now a murder victim.

Hmm, interesting. I love that Flack 'borrows' a cab to chase the thief, is there no such thing a night off in the NYPD? :lol: And that's without even mentioning the fact that he took a gun with him on his date... :rolleyes:

Flack wonders aloud if she is in shock or if her reaction is strange

And I wonder if Flack is at all suspicious of his date? I haven't read any other spoilers about the episode so I could be completely wrong, but something makes me distrust Devon, maybe it's her excitement at being invited to a fundraiser that I find unusual, or my disbelief that a thief would just happen to decide to break in to a fiftieth floor apartment. Poor Flack, it's about time he got some action. :p
 
Flack asks Devon whether she has a roommate who would be responsible for the sound

So, he not only brings a gun on a date, but he doesn't know if she lives alone? :devil: May I believe she is on the show only one episode.Please!!! Really need to believe that! :rolleyes:



Flack wonders aloud if she is in shock or if her reaction is strange


RUN FLACK, RUN!!!! :D
 
something makes me distrust Devon
I'm not sure about Devon. I think she's harmless, but the excitement over being robbed by this famous gang and getting invited to a fundraiser because of it is...strange. Maybe it's one of those silly rich people things the writers of NY are fond of throwing in. :rolleyes:

And if Don notices that her behavior is strange several times (from how it seems), I can only suppose that he's still dating her because she's hot. :lol:

my disbelief that a thief would just happen to decide to break in to a fiftieth floor apartment.
Well, the thief is targeting rich people, so if he's got the tools to break into a penthouse on the 50th floor, I'm sure he'd go for it. :lol:
 
Ah, OK, she's harmless and just excited by the whole ordeal. I must say I'm disappointed. :rolleyes: :lol: It does read as suspicious though, along with the lights being on in the bedroom... is it such a stretch to think that maybe Devon just forgot to turn them off when she left? We know that it's never that simple in the land of CSI though. :p

:lol: Yes, that makes sense. It's not as though he seems to meet women often, so even a crazy hot date would be better than no date at all.

It's never simple indeed--I think the lights are relevant to the storyline. We'll find out when the episode airs, I guess--I'm curious to see how this story unfolds and if everything makes sense. :lol:
