- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: Look at this high-velocity spatter right here. And more interesting is this.
- Eric Delko: That's a partial print. It's a little low on the wall, isn't it?
- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: Whoever did this slipped in the blood, and then attempted to break their fall with that print.
- Eric Delko: Well, the print's on top of the spatter.
- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: Means the blood had time to dry.
- Eric Delko: Gives us a timeline.
- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: We are to believe, Eric, that this kid killed this woman, waited for the spatter to dry, and then slipped and fell in the blood pool.
- [Delko's phone chirps]
- Eric Delko: That was Tripp. He says the kid just confessed.
- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: The kid confessed? That was quick.
- Eric Delko: There's only forty-eight hours till his arraignment.
- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: In this system, that kid doesn't have forty-eight hours.
- Michael Boland: I haven't been on my boat for three months.
- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: That's an interesting choice of words, considering the boat is not registered to you.
- Michael Boland: It was my wife's boat. She was trying to sell it. We're reorganizing.
- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: You mean getting divorced.
- Ryan Wolfe: Hey, is that the shank from the jail murder?
- Calleigh Duquesne: Yeah, I found it in Darrel's cell.
- Ryan Wolfe: Is that a turkey bone?
- Calleigh Duquesne: Yep. I also found a little dental floss.
- Ryan Wolfe: Prisoners are so resourceful.
- Eric Delko: [processing a glass found at the scene] The surface on these is rough. We'll be lucky if we get a print. There's lipstick, too. Was the vic wearing any?
- Dr. Alexx Woods: No. But... but I do have blood around her mouth.
- Eric Delko: We surprised about that, Alexx? She was shot.
- Dr. Alexx Woods: No, no, no, no. Air bubbles. Means she was struggling to breathe.
- Eric Delko: So death wasn't instantaneous.
- Dr. Alexx Woods: This girl was a fighter.
- Dr. Alexx Woods: Through-and-through. Bullet missed everything important. That means the gunshot wound didn't kill her.
- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: So what did, Alexx?
- Dr. Alexx Woods: I noticed this when her skin dried out. Skin's worn around her nose and mouth from friction. She wasn't just struggling for air, Horatio.
- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: So, she was smothered.
- Dr. Alexx Woods: That's what the evidence says.
