TEXT: Hotel Manager: You're here. Thank god. There was screaming and gunshots upstairs in room 222. The one- the one on the right. Right there. Sam Blakely: Police! Open the door. Come on, open up! Minelli: Glad you could make it. We have a young female, Patricia Matigan and joseph Purcell,who was gonna be the star witness in California vs. Carris, which was one of the attorney general's favorite upcoming narcotics cases. Lisbon: State's witness, and no police protection? Minelli: Uh-huh. Davis P.D. Had it covered that is, until Purcell went a.W.O.L. A few weeks ago. Didn't want to testify, I guess. With Purcell dead, the case against Carris dies, too. He walks. So obviously, guys, for all of our sakes, This is a must-close. Davis P.D. Is still running the Carris case, by the way,so we have to work with them. Don't freeze 'em out. Lisbon: Who is Carris, and where is he or she right now Minelli: Rick Carris is the man to know in the Davis meth business. He was busted a month ago after a big, expensive operation. He's out and about on a $2 million bond. Purcell here is one of his top street captains. Look at that. This fool is state's witness against the biggest cocaine dealer in the county, and he's dealing the same drug out of his own motel room-like Carris wouldn't hear about that. He must have had a death wish. Lisbon: Looks like a couple of ounces. Jane: It's not cocaine. Minelli: It's... Lisbon: It's powdered milk. Minelli: Yes, that's often used to cut the product. Lisbon: Jane? Van Pelt: What are you looking for? Jane: The girl had her keys in her hand. She was only planning on stopping by. Minelli: Oh no Lisbon: Hello. Jane: So what happens to her? Lisbon: Social services have foster homes that specialize in babies. They'll take
SUMMARY:
When a State's witness in a narcotics case and his girlfriend (Patrice Matigan) are shot in a motel room, CBI is called in on this high-stakes case. Local police suspect the drug dealer on trial is behind the murders since there is no case without the witness, but Jane surmises Patrice was the intended target. Focusing on Patrice, the team discovers she might have been having an affair with a veteran police officer, suggesting she was killed by a cop to cover up the affair. But when the evidence does not add up, the team stages a fake stake-out to ultimately catch the real killer and uncover the tragic truth behind the murders.
