CSI:New York

Season 1 - Episode 8 - Three Generations are Enough

Written by Andrew Lipsitz
Directed by Alex Zakrzewski

Controlled pandemonium on the floor of the New York Mercantile Exchange as traders shout and use a combination of intricate hand signals to close their deals just before the competition. Few people survive here beyond thirty – and it turns out they might not even make that, when a security guard discovers a black brief case seemingly belonging to no one.

Within moments, the organized chaos of the Mercantile Exchange turns into pure panic, as all the traders go on a wild stampede to the exit. A short while later, the floor is completely empty, save for a robot whirring over to the briefcase. The robot is remote controlled by Mac Taylor, who uses it to safely disrupt the bomb in the briefcase – but not before taking a remote photograph of a fingerprint on the briefcase’s lock. The police computer connects the fingerprint to a certain Luke Sutton, and Mac and Aiden quickly make their way over to his Upper East Side apartment. But upon arriving, they find his apartment smashed, and Sutton gone, probably kidnapped. From a suspect, Sutton has turned into a possible victim…..

Meanwhile Stella Bonasera and Detective Flack are called to investigate the death of a young church worker, Trina Rolston, who apparently died when she fell off the roof of St. Juliana Church. But further investigation reveals she was first hit over the head with a candlestick, and when is revealed that Trina was pregnant, the CSIs have a possible motive. They discover a love letter to Trina inside a prayer book she was reading shortly before she died, and then find matching fingerprints on both the prayer book and the candlestick belonging to Father Murphy, one of the priests at St. Juliana.
