Quotes
-
Walter Simmons : I remember spring break; Daytona Beach. It's a miracle I survived. Get drunk and crazy... for what? To end up like this? Unless you think it was suicide.
Dr. Tom Loman : Good aim. Or bad, depending on how you want to look at it.
-
Walter Simmons : Bodies are piling up; three and counting.
Dr. Tom Loman : And here I am, outnumbered.
-
Walter Simmons : What the hell are you doing with a flare gun?
Dean Butler : I drove my dad's car here from Michigan. He's got a boat. He left it in the car. I-I grabbed it for kicks and giggles. You know, in case I wanted to start an impromptu fireworks show.
Walter Simmons : But instead, you shot a guy through the window.
Dean Butler : Sh-shot a guy? Uh, no, no, I-I didn't shoot anyone.
Horatio Caine : You just said you discharged the weapon.
Dean Butler : I shot *at* him, I didn't hit him.
Horatio Caine : Okay. I... I have a body down at the morgue that begs to differ.
-
Walter Simmons : [running a crime scene reconstruction] Not even close, H. Dummy cleared the building by five feet. And he's at least twenty feet from where the body landed.
Horatio Caine : He was shot in the chest, so he wasn't running away from the shooter, was he?
Walter Simmons : Right, so if his horizontal speed can't increase, then his vertical distance has to.
Horatio Caine : Maybe he fell from a higher height.
Walter Simmons : So, what are you thinking? Go floor by floor?
Horatio Caine : Nope. I've got a better idea.
[on the roof a few minutes later]
Horatio Caine : Here he comes, Walter.
Walter Simmons : [measuring the distance as the dummy lands] It's about four feet short, H.
Horatio Caine : Well, that's a problem, Walter. I'm running out of real estate up here.
-
Walter Simmons : So, our vic fell off the roof first? Then, on his way down, was accidentally hit by the flare Dean shot. Man, that's something out of an urban legend.
Horatio Caine : The force of the flare altered trajectory and impaled our victim.
Walter Simmons : Wow. Well, Dean couldn't have planned this. And if he was in his room, then he couldn't have pushed our victim. The murder is his alibi.
Horatio Caine : Note the footprints, Walter.
Walter Simmons : [looking closer] Huh. Heels to the edge. Jumpers don't jump backwards.
Horatio Caine : No, they don't. He was pushed.
Walter Simmons : [looking around] Look at this. Looks like our victim and the killer might have been having a party up here.
Horatio Caine : I agree. So let's see who got invited.
-
Horatio Caine : Do we have an ID yet, Doctor?
Dr. Tom Loman : None that I found. I sent photos upstairs to Missing Persons, but I've heard nary a word from them. I did find something that I can't blame on the pipe that perforated his abdomen. On the periphery of the wound, there are second- and third-degree burns. And on the remains pulled from the pipe, I found some kind of residue, which I sent to Trace.
Horatio Caine : Okay, what did they find?
Dr. Tom Loman : Strontium, magnesium, potassium, and sulfur.
Horatio Caine : Components of a flare.
Dr. Tom Loman : Yes. A-As strange as it sounds, I think he was shot with a flare gun.
Walter Simmons : So much for suicide.
Dr. Tom Loman : [picking up a petri dish] And... there's this.
Walter Simmons : Is that glass?
Dr. Tom Loman : Tempered, to be precise.
Horatio Caine : So, gentlemen, there was a window between our shooter and our victim. Gentlemen, we're looking for a broken window at the Ciel Bleu Hotel.
-
Dean Butler : I had a bunch of people up here partying last night. We were all hanging out, having fun, but this one guy starts going crazy; he's throwing drinks everywhere, getting in everyone's faces. I told him to get out, but he wouldn't. I just... I just wanted to scare him.
Walter Simmons : By shooting at him with a flare gun?
Horatio Caine : [showing him a picture from the morgue] That the man?
Dean Butler : No. No, I've-I've never seen him before. I promise. Look, this whole thing's just a big misunderstanding.
Horatio Caine : Be that as it may, you're coming with us.
Walter Simmons : [a patrol officer leads Butler away] He's lying, H. That story's got holes in it as big as the one in our vic's chest.
Horatio Caine : I agree, Walter. So let's prove it.
-
Walter Simmons : Got the same residue here, H. And scorch marks.
Horatio Caine : Yes, and judging from the amount of glass out there, the blast originated in here, didn't it?
-
Walter Simmons : Hey, we're missing something. H, you read me?
Horatio Caine : Walter, how far away from the building did the flare kick out the dummy?
Walter Simmons : Five feet.
Horatio Caine : Five feet. That could make up the difference.
Walter Simmons : Are you saying what I think you're saying?
Horatio Caine : Walter, he was never in the room. Come on up here, please.
-
Walter Simmons : Hey.
Jesse Cardoza : Hey.
Walter Simmons : Gang's all here.
Calleigh Duquesne : Did your John Doe come through here?
Jesse Cardoza : Yeah. This is, uh, where he met the guy that shot at him with the flare gun.
Calleigh Duquesne : All right, so at some point, all three of our victims passed through here. Do you recognize this girl?
Jesse Cardoza : Or him?
Walter Simmons : How about this guy?
Ricky Halpern : Hundreds of people party here every day, every night, man. It gets crazy. I don't remember those two guys, but it doesn't mean they weren't here. But her? Her, I remember.
Calleigh Duquesne : Really? Why?
Ricky Halpern : She was a pain in my ass. Out-of-her-mind drunk; had to give her the boot.
-
Calleigh Duquesne : Hey, Walter, what are you doing here?
Walter Simmons : Hey. My vic partied here. Had a VIP bracelet from this spot.
Ricky Halpern : Great. More cops.
Walter Simmons : Mr. Cooperative here is Ricky Halpern. Club bouncer.
Frank Tripp : Ricky! Just the guy we were looking for. We got one of your prints in our investigation.
Ricky Halpern : Mine?
Frank Tripp : Uh-huh. Does your boss know you're a felon?
