- Detective Frank Tripp: Well, the driver's sober. He said he didn't see the victim in the alleyway.
- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: We got a cause of death?
- Dr. Tom Loman: Her cervical vertebrae and lateral malleoli are crushed.
- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: So she's got a broken neck.
- Dr. Tom Loman: Not exactly. These injuries suggest she was already on the ground when run over. And look... frothing. And... ocular miosis.
- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: Which tells you what?
- Dr. Tom Loman: These are all symptoms of being poisoned by a nerve agent. Odds are, she was already dead when the car hit her.
- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: So what you're saying is the car was unrelated to her death.
- Dr. Tom Loman: She's cyanotic. I'd say she was poisoned minutes ago at most.
- Detective Frank Tripp: Maybe the killer's still inside, Horatio.
- Lieutenant Horatio Caine: Frank, lock it down. Nobody leaves.
