Body of Proof (2011–2013): Season 2, Episode 8 - Love Bites - full transcript
A woman is found in the river. They discover she bled out but there's no blood where they found her. They learn that she was poisoned. They learn she's a pharmaceutical rep. They learn that she was having an affair with a married doctor. He tells them she died while they were together. He was afraid so he threw her body in the river and cleaned up where they were. When he tells them how she died helps them to find out what happened to her. And Megan is making a room for her daughter but is not asking her what she wants.
Help!
Megan? In here, Mom.
Hi.
Your usual. Thank you.
So...
This is the room you
wanna do what with exactly?
I'm no interior decorator,
but I wanna fix it up for Lacey.
Interior designer. That's what
the professionals call them.
Okay, I wanna make it nice,
because Lacey's gonna
stay here more often.
Really? And you have all
this worked out with Todd?
Mom.
You're here to help
me pick out a color.
What do you think of that?
I think I should introduce
you to my interior designer.
Dr. Hunt.
Morning, Dr. Hunt. Hey, Dani.
Hey, I'm Dani. Oh,
you two haven't...?
No, but I've seen you around.
Yeah, you too. Sure. I'm Peter.
Nice to finally
meet you. You too.
Hey, Dani.
What's up with girls
using guys' names?
I think it's very cool.
Don't start, okay?
Some frat idiots
had an initiation
on a bridge upstream.
One of them used the
deceased as a lifeline.
Divers pulled her
out ten minutes ago.
Expensive lingerie.
Manicured nails.
Skin texture suggests
immersion for at least two days.
I assume we have no ID?
Nope. And nothing
from Missing Persons.
Superficial wounds, but
nothing that appears fatal yet.
Oh. That's a nice compound
fracture to the left humerus.
The divers had a rough time
pulling her up from the rocks.
So someone bludgeoned her,
or it was the
river or the divers.
Or a combination of all three.
Peter. Yeah.
Get water samples. Got it.
See you in autopsy.
You looking for guppies? Ha, ha.
Diatoms. They're unicellular
algae that thrive in water.
If she drowned, we
should find it in her blood.
I thought water in the
lungs determined drowning.
Well, yeah, but
these are good too.
And, uh, since they live in
colonies along the river then...
They'll help you figure
out where she went in.
You're a quick study.
That's what they tell me.
I appreciate you
dropping me off.
No, no. It's no problem.
We'll make up for
it next weekend.
I was thinking about
taking a trip somewhere.
Where?
Somewhere beyond
cell phone range.
What about Lacey?
Now that we're not
moving to California,
Megan's been angling to
spend more time with her.
It means more time for us too.
You okay? Yeah.
We'll talk about it later.
Isn't this your day off? Yep.
Do I wanna know? - Nope.
Dr. Murphy, you taking
another case away from me?
Oh, hell.
How about you accept
the help, Megan?
Why does that make me nervous?
If you are finished
with the coffee klatch,
can we get started, please?
We ran her prints. Got
a hit to an FBI database.
Her name is Amy Green.
As in the Old French Amée.
Uh, it means "beloved."
He's on the hunt for baby names.
Oh, that's sweet. Okay,
can we focus, please?
Any chance this young
woman just drowned?
Ethan is pulling femoral
blood to find diatoms.
We'll know soon enough.
Why was this girl's name
in the FBI database?
She was printed for her job.
Um, she worked
for Maven Industries
as a pharmaceutical rep.
Oh, she was a pharm girl.
I met quite a few of those
when I was a neurosurgeon.
Very ambitious.
We, uh, have an address
for a corporate apartment.
Still looking for her family.
Ugh, okay, this is weird.
Uh, I'm not getting any
blood from the femoral.
Check the other one.
There's some kind of fibrous
material under her nails.
We'll need pictures, Ethan.
Ethan. That's a great name.
Forever spoiled,
thank you very much.
I have got a compound
fracture to the left humerus.
Can't tell whether
ante or postmortem.
I'll put a rush on X-ray.
Well, she's been in
the water for a while.
Could be aquatic
animal activity.
Could you be more specific?
Fish bites. Ah.
Uh, I can't find any
blood in her arteries.
Could it have washed away?
Even if she
transected an artery,
there'd still be
some in her veins.
Okay, but I'm telling you,
there's no blood in
this woman's body.
Maybe she's a vampire?
Yeah, but see, vampires
have blood in their veins.
Not if another vampire
sucks it out of them.
You're perfect. What?
What? Uh...
Either way, you know,
vampires can't drown, so...
What is this, a
Twilight convention?
Dani, don't you have
some place to be?
I was invited. CURTIS: By who?
I just got this from the lab.
Come here, Dani.
What you got for me?
A diatom from the river.
Definitely not a guppy.
Hey, my turn, my turn.
Here we go, here we go, my turn.
I pulled this from
Amy's bone marrow.
So she did drown.
Yeah, but we have a problem.
Yes, you do.
They don't match.
You sure this is right?
It's right. I
double-checked myself.
Amy had diatoms in her
bone marrow. She drowned.
But they didn't come
from Schuylkill River.
So where did they come from?
We found her body here.
She drowned here.
The Gulf of Maine?
Are you sure this
is the right place?
It's the address that
Amy's company gave me.
Number 3 City Lofts.
Well... Oh, no, I'm...
Excuse me.
Does Amy Green live here?
Yes, but she's in
Denver right now.
Hi, my name is Molly
Anderson. Himstim regional rep.
It's the next Viagra.
You wanna try it?
Oh, um, wife's pregnant.
Well, that is the
best time to use it.
Try telling my wife.
So, what is your
specialty, doctor?
Uh, urology?
Cardiology? Psychology?
Criminology.
How long have you
all been roommates?
Almost two years.
I can't believe Amy's dead.
So Beth, you were
Amy's assistant.
And, Molly, you worked for
Amy's biggest competitor?
Mm-hm, that's right.
And yet you have a
product party here?
We're all friends, detectives.
We help each other out.
When was the last time
either of you saw Amy?
Two days ago. Here
at the apartment.
She was going to the airport.
She went to Denver
for a conference.
After that, she was supposed
to visit her family in Iowa.
We have reason to believe
Amy was in Maine two days ago.
Do you have any idea why
she might have been there?
Well, Amy was seeing somebody,
but I thought she
broke it off with him.
Name? I don't know.
It wasn't serious.
Some guys are for
marrying, others guys are for...
Himstim?
So Amy didn't drown.
There's no middle
ear hemorrhaging
or pulmonary edema.
So how do you
explain the diatoms?
We can't. Any more than we
can explain the loss of blood.
Anything from Bud and Sam?
Yeah, Amy was dating
some mystery guy.
Did you find any evidence that
shows she was seeing somebody
the night that she died?
How about her last meal? - Ah.
Seafood. Rare belon oysters.
You just happen to
know that? I know food.
The lab ID'd them. Also ID'd...
Diatoms. That's how
they got into her system.
From eating oysters?
Diatoms are oyster food,
and Amy had ulcerations
in her stomach.
Ulcers act like a freeway
for diatoms to enter her blood.
Okay, so where
would somebody find
rare belon oysters in Philly?
What you looking at me for?
Okay. I know a place
that flies them in fresh.
American Airlines flight 221,
now boarding.
These oysters come packed
in their own seawater. Try one?
No. Flown in fresh, huh?
Oh, yeah. My buddy
in TSA hooks me up.
The only place in Philly
you can find them fresh.
Mm. CHRIS: Ah?
Verdict? Oh, that's delicious.
You recognize her?
Yeah, that looks like
Sweetness. Sweetness?
Chris gives us all
nicknames. It's so cute.
I'm Sassy. And you must be...
Giggles.
What are you asking
about Amy for?
You know Amy?
Was Amy in two nights ago?
Ugh, it was busy,
so I can't really say.
What's this about, anyway?
Amy was pulled from
the Schuylkill this morning.
Oh, my God. She drowned?
We're not sure how she died.
Well, if you do
remember anything,
you let us know, all right?
Yeah.
So two nights ago,
they were to be on
a flight to Denver,
but Amy stayed behind,
and they were under
the distinct impression
that she blew off
the trip for a date.
Amy was a very determined girl.
She had to do
everything her own way.
How so, Mrs. Green?
The job with Maven?
I was against her taking it.
Why is that?
Amy was so nice.
Always had the best intentions.
And the pharmaceutical
business can be cutthroat.
I was afraid the job
would change her.
Amy had ulcers, Mrs. Green.
Was anything bothering her?
Was she unusually stressed?
Not that I know of.
Was she in a relationship?
She didn't talk about anyone.
Her only concern was her job.
I should have fought harder.
I shouldn't have let her go.
We're gonna find who did this.
When can I bring her home?
We still have to determine
exactly how she died.
I promise we'll let you
know as soon as we can.
Here's the footage
from two nights ago.
Need anything, I'll be in
there with Animal Control.
Someone brought a dozen
Jesus Lizards from Costa Rica
onboard a 747 this morning.
- Ha, ha.
Well, thanks, Sue.
Parents Johnny Cash
fans? What do you think?
He's Sue, you're
Sam, she's Dani.
What the hell is going on?
Will you stop stressing
about baby names?
It's the first decision
you make for your kid.
It's a lot of pressure.
Hold it. Check this out.
That's Amy in the green suit.
And that is not a
secret boyfriend.
That is Amy's assistant, Beth.
She told us she last saw
Amy at the apartment.
She lied.
Mom, Dad's waiting in the
car. I can't be late for school.
Okay, okay. I just wanna
show you this really quick.
It's just... It's a mess now,
but I've got this
interior decorator,
I mean, a designer, helping me.
I thought it was fine before.
Yeah, for every other weekend,
but since you're spending more
time here, I want it to be nice.
More time here?
That's what you said, isn't it?
That you wanna stay in
Philadelphia to be with me.
Yeah, and my
friends and Grandma.
Yeah, of course, but...
You wanna spend
more time here, right?
Sure.
Here you are.
Is it just me, Beth, or
have you had a makeover?
I've been promoted
to Amy's position.
Have you now?
So you lied to us about
Amy going out of town.
I was scared to say
anything in front of Molly.
Scared, why?
Amy blew off Denver
to chase a big account.
But Amy was dead
when we talked to you.
Why would you care
if Molly found out?
Unless you wanted
the account for yourself.
Oh.
Detectives, I'm not
a violent person.
Try again. Five years
ago, assault and battery
reduced to a misdemeanor.
I was in veterinary
school interning at the zoo.
Some drunk tried to jump
a fence so I tackled him,
and the jerk pressed charges.
Look, Amy gave me a
chance to reinvent myself.
She took me under her
wing. I would never hurt her.
Where did you take Amy
after you picked her
up from the airport?
Dr. David Cryer's office.
He's a bigwig cardiologist
at the pharmacy and therapeutics
board at Philly General.
It's a huge account.
Everyone wants it.
So I reviewed the x-rays.
Hairline fractures to her
lower extremities, wrists
and right frontoparietal.
All antemortem.
Has Todd said anything to you
about Lacey spending
more time with me?
No.
You know, the more time
she spends at my place,
the more time you
have with Todd, alone.
Win-win. Exactly.
Compound fracture to her
humerus transected the artery here.
But it was postmortem.
So still no explanation
for blood loss.
Well, I have petechial
hemorrhaging
on the serosal
surfaces of the organs.
Right and left side.
Could be caused by infection,
asphyxia, toxic exposure.
Or a drug.
We need to find out what kind
of drugs these girls are selling.
Could you get
Dr. Cryer out here?
If you wanna see the doctor,
you have to make an appointment.
I don't think you understand.
This is a murder investigation.
You have to make an appointment.
You wanna be
arrested for obstruction?
Alice, those are
really pretty flowers.
Are they from someone special?
No. They're Dr. Cryer's
favorite, birds of paradise.
He gets them fresh every day.
So there is nobody special?
Come on, I don't believe that.
Looking forward to
your business, Dr. Cryer.
Jarvis Pharmaceuticals
will take care of you.
I'm sure they will.
Molly, fancy seeing you here.
Girl's gotta work, detective.
Who's next?
We are.
Amy was here, uh,
a couple of days ago
pitching Maven's
new beta blocker.
Why didn't you buy from her?
Molly's company is bigger. I
knew they'd cut a better deal.
Amy give you
Maven's products? Yes.
Did Amy's assistant, Beth,
ever contact Dr. Cryer?
Just to send over samples.
We're gonna need those samples.
Sorry, I have confidentiality
agreements with the companies.
Come on, you're the gatekeeper.
You know exactly what kind
of samples these girls leave.
Oh, baby, they leave
more than samples.
Try pens, mugs, squeezy
balls, notepads, food.
What kind of food? Oysters.
Amy brought them for
me every time we met.
Her boyfriend had a contact.
Boyfriend?
Chris, the way you lied
to us, it wasn't just stupid,
it was insulting.
You knew we were talking to
Amy's co-workers, her friends.
What did you think
was gonna happen?
I didn't lie. You sat
there shucking oysters
while your girlfriend
lay dead in the morgue.
Why didn't you tell us
you were seeing Amy?
Because I wasn't.
- Amy broke up with me.
- Okay, so Amy comes...
Amy comes back into town,
you try to hook up, she refuses.
That the way it went
down? You're wrong.
Amy and I got along.
We're both from small
towns, blue-collar families.
Amy was...
She was sweet, but she
was also smart, driven.
She knew what she
wanted. And it wasn't you.
How did she die, anyway?
Someone gave her
a drug. Doctor, you...
Did Amy talk about
drugs she was selling?
Anything that she had
to be extra careful with?
No. Dr. Hunt?
Outside?
You're giving the
suspect information.
I thought he could
help us with COD.
Well, that is your
job, not the suspect's.
And, hey, never bring
that thing in here again.
This was about Lacey.
When you have your
kid, you'll understand.
Lacey.
That a family name?
No, it just came to me
the first time I held her.
She was soft and delicate.
What would've happened if
she was crabby and whiny?
I would have called her Bud.
Dr. Hunt, I'm so
glad I caught you...
Put a rush on those drug
samples Amy left at Cryer's office.
Already done. Can you
slow down? I want results
on the trace that we
found under Amy's nails.
Bud wants evidence linking
this Chris Quinn to Amy's death.
I'll look right into it.
Can you just stop,
so I could talk to you?
I'm just trying to warn you.
Grandmother, you
really shouldn't touch that.
Grandma, seriously.
Lacey, are you all right?
No, she's not.
She called very upset.
Aren't you, Lacey?
Well, uh, I mean, I guess, yeah.
Hi, uh, Ethan said
you wanted to see me?
Megan didn't, I did.
I wasn't able to reach Todd,
or he would've been here too.
You see, you're all
making decisions for Lacey
without asking what
she really wants.
I am not the one who is
trying to drag her to California.
I'm not making
decisions for anybody.
Oh, you spending the night
at Lacey's isn't your decision?
Ethan, what is it?
Uh, update on the trace
under Amy's fingernails.
Can't that wait? No.
Lace, I'll talk to you later.
Mother...
I don't even know
where to begin.
Thanks a lot, Grandma.
I just... I don't
wanna talk about it.
I didn't hear anything.
Now I know where you
got your interpersonal skills.
Did you find something?
Yes, the fibrous material
under Amy's fingernails
are tiny bits of
some kind of paper
along with traces of arsenic.
Only there was no
arsenic in her tox.
So no COD. Wait, can I?
It may not tell us how she
died, but it could tell us where.
I did an autopsy once on a
guy who restored old houses.
He died of arsenic toxicity.
Arsenic used to be used
to preserve wallpaper.
Forensics tracked the wallpaper
to locktender houses
built along the river.
The historical society
is trying to save this one.
They're sending us a
list of members, donors,
anyone who might
have had access.
Hey. Looks like we've
got nail marks here.
And even a little blood.
She scratched at the walls.
You smell that?
Yeah, bleach.
Go get the Luminol.
Oh, my God.
This can't all be...
Yeah, it is.
Good God, what happened here?
Now we know where
all of her blood went.
It was Chris, the bartender.
He was angry at Amy.
He saw her at the airport,
grabbed her,
brought her out here.
Well, that's how she got here.
But how does someone
lose this much blood?
Baker.
There were no wounds
that could have caused this.
You gotta go back to
the body, right, doctor?
You guys must have
missed something.
We didn't miss
anything, detective.
I found petechial
hemorrhaging in her organs.
It had to have been caused by
some drug that Amy ingested.
Something that made her
exsanguinate from every orifice.
She would have been in
agony, screaming, flailing around.
It's possible that the
wounds are self-inflicted.
That was Lopez.
Chris alibied out.
He was working
the night Amy died.
Peter, get blood
samples to the lab.
You shouldn't have any
problem finding enough.
Yeah.
Okay, I'll put a
rush on them. Bye.
What's up? That was Megan.
Amy died of a
systemic bleed out.
Oh, man. That's a
horrible way to go.
Yeah. Get the lab to run those
drug samples for anticoagulants.
There are other things that
can cause someone to bleed out.
And we're gonna rule
out every one of them.
If she picked up some
toxin or hemorrhagic virus,
we could have a full-blown
crisis on our hands.
Should I even ask?
Ugh, I'm just tired of
being in the middle.
Sister, I feel your pain.
Your corporation donates to
the historical society, Dr. Cryer,
and you personally are
the single largest contributor
to the Locktender
House restoration.
I support my community. So?
You reserved that house
for a party the night Amy died.
- You guys are off-base.
- Really?
You're a cardiologist. You
have access to anticoagulants.
What happened? Amy
discover you were married?
We can put you in that room.
It was a fling. There
was nothing serious.
You brought flowers and
watched her bleed to death.
That is not what happened.
Look, we went into the house,
Amy said she wanted to change
into something nice for me.
I went outside to call my wife
to tell her I'd be working late.
Oh, classy.
When I went back in that
room, Amy was already dead.
Amy tried to claw her
way out of that room.
She had to have been screaming
in agony. You didn't hear that?
I had to walk to the top
of the hill to get reception.
Heh, right. Your wife. Hmm.
Look, there was blood
everywhere, so I panicked,
I wrapped her up in a blanket
and I carried her to the river.
Hmm, that's when you
broke out the bleach.
I didn't want it to get back
to me. It'd ruin my marriage.
It's gonna do more than that.
Put your hands behind your
back. You're under arrest.
What for?
If it were up to me,
being a horrible person.
But try tampering with evidence.
Disposal of a body.
And possibly murder.
You have the right
to remain silent.
Anything you say
DR. CRYER: This is ridiculous.
Will be used in a court of law.
You have the
right to an attorney.
If you cannot
afford an attorney,
an attorney will
be provided for you.
PETER: Hello. Peter...
I need a list of all
the anticoagulants
that Dr. Cryer
used in his practice.
Got it. And, oh, your
interior decorator called.
Designer. What?
It's an interior de...
Um, well, never mind.
What? What did she want?
You're not gonna like it.
First you insist that
I use your designer,
then you tell her that she
can't work for me anymore?
Megan... MEGAN: And by the way,
who the hell are you
to come to my office
and lecture me about parenting?
Megan, this is Assistant
District Attorney Ben Allen.
Ben, I'd like you to meet
my daughter, Megan.
Hello.
Could you please
excuse us for a minute?
Sure. Judge, to be continued.
It was nice meeting you.
He's good-looking, isn't he?
Not that he'd be interested in
you at all after that entrance.
Why did you cancel the designer?
Well, in your office, I just
realized that I was interfering.
Interfering?
You accused me of doing to Lacey
what you have been doing
to me for my entire life.
Controlling everything.
My schools, my career.
You picked out what
clothes I should wear,
the color of my bedroom,
the boys I should be dating.
And look at the results.
Yeah. I resent the
hell out of you for it.
Well, maybe you
should learn from it too.
Oh, don't you worry.
Lacey is never
gonna feel about me
the way I feel about you.
Hey, Peter, did you get
a list of anticoagulants
from Cryer's office?
They won't give it up.
Heh, seems your
charms only go so far.
This might not matter.
I checked with the FDA.
None of the anticoags
approved for sale in the U.S.
match Amy's symptoms.
Maybe it was Ebola.
Ebo... Dani, I hired
you to be a driver,
not a medical consultant.
Easy, Dr. Brumfield. I
just dropped off a body.
Yeah, easy, Dr. Brumfield.
You know, I think Ebola is
an interesting suggestion.
If it was Ebola, you two
would be dead by now, fool.
Maybe we're looking
for an experimental drug.
How are we gonna get specs
on an experimental drug?
Some companies do
their clinical trials overseas.
So?
Uh, hello, my name is Dr. Dunlop
and I have a cardiology
practice in Sydney.
And, uh, a colleague
of mine, Dr. Cryer,
recommended that I contact you.
That accent is hilarious.
You like that? How about this?
This is Dr. Gross.
Do you have...? I'm
calling about anticoagulants.
How about this?
You have any new drugs?
Shh!
Did you see this e-mail?
None of the drug samples
from our pharm girls
have anticoags in them.
Maybe because what killed
Amy isn't on the market yet.
Jarvis International is coming
out with a new anticoagulant.
And guess who the
rep is. Molly Anderson?
Bud and Sam are
trying to track her down.
See if they can
get samples. Okay.
So then, just tell me.
Why have you been
avoiding my calls?
I guess I've...
realized that getting
involved with you
wasn't such a great idea.
Because?
You're my colleague's
ex-husband for starters.
And Megan's trying to forge
a relationship with Lacey,
and I keep winding up in
the middle of it somehow.
Kate, don't. Those
are just excuses.
It's got nothing to
do with you and me.
That's exactly the problem.
This has never been
just about you and me.
Look, I care about you,
and I would never ask you
to change your life for me.
But I just know that
this isn't working.
I'm sorry.
It's over.
Molly. Molly.
We need to look in
your bag. What for?
Amy was killed by a
powerful anticoagulant.
Jarvis is rolling out a
new one next month.
As their rep, you have the
samples and the spec sheets.
We wanna see them.
You think I killed Amy?
- You were after the same account.
- We can look here
or at the police station.
Hey, be my guest.
There are lots of new
anticoags out there.
And there are a lot of reps that
wanted that account with Cryer.
Jarvis said they
sent her the samples.
Where are they?
Just because I landed
the Cryer account
doesn't mean that I killed Amy.
Molly, wait.
You knew Amy was having
an affair with Dr. Cryer,
didn't you?
Did she end it with him?
I don't know anything.
I thought you were her friend.
Were you lying about that too?
We cannot pin Amy's
murder on anyone
until we confirm
what drug killed her.
So I take it you
struck out with Molly.
Ugh, she might have
been smart and driven,
but Amy was naive to
think that girl was her friend.
Dr. Hunt. Dr. Hunt.
Speak of the devil.
What happened, miss your flight?
My best friend is murdered,
and all I care about
is another sale. It's...
The pharm business is cutthroat,
but Amy still cared
about her friends.
And she was always there for me.
The least I can do
is be there for her.
Specs on Jarvis'
new anticoagulant.
There's something else.
Amy was having an
affair with Dr. Cryer,
but you have it backwards.
Amy didn't break up with Cryer,
she was madly in love with him.
He told her he was
gonna leave his wife.
Thank you.
Just catch whoever
did this to Amy.
None of these drug
reactions match.
I think it's time for Dr. Cryer
to see his girlfriend again.
What is this? Why am I here?
We still don't know
what killed Amy.
And since you watched her
die, we thought you could help.
I didn't kill her.
So...
you want us to believe
that you went outside
because Amy wanted to change.
And you called your wife.
How long were you gone?
Twenty minutes. My, um...
My daughter wanted
a bedtime story.
You told your kid a story
while Amy bled to death?
Like I said, I just...
I found her dead on the floor.
How? What did she look like?
Ugh, she was, um...
frozen in the fetal position.
Frozen in terror?
Fists clenched? Mouth open?
Uh, no, she was holding herself.
What do you mean?
Show me.
Um...
This arm was, um...
wrapped under here like she
was, uh, trying to stop the pain.
Get him out of here.
What are you looking for?
Brachial vein.
Missed it because
of the fish bites.
Whoa.
What are those from? Injections?
Fangs.
So she was bitten by a snake?
Its hemotoxic venom entered
her body through the brachial vein,
causing her to exsanguinate.
I ran the specs of
venom by a herpetologist.
He's pretty sure we're
looking at this little fella,
a Gaboon viper from Africa.
The timeline matches up.
One bite can cause you
to bleed out in 20 minutes.
How does an African snake
wind up in a house in Philly?
Ah, maybe it escaped from a zoo?
Or maybe it was stolen.
Amy's assistant
used to work at a zoo.
Follow up with Bud and Sam.
In the meantime, we
need to find that snake.
Oh, I hate snakes.
It's the murder weapon.
I'll look for it.
Not by yourself, you won't.
You're the animal
control expert.
You know, where
would it be hiding?
It's a nocturnal snake.
Could be under the house.
Or in the rafters.
What? In the rafters?
Who's going up there?
Hopefully...
he'll come to us.
Uh, excuse me, sir.
Sir? Hey, what's that for?
Vipers are attracted
to vibrations. Music.
Now, remember, don't
do anything to provoke it.
One bite, it's over.
That's it? Nothing we can do?
Severing a limb could work.
I'll start under the house.
That wasn't comforting.
I tell you what, if the snake
bites me, just cut off my arm.
Yeah, yeah, uh, and
if the snake bites me,
just tell Dani I
was thinking of her.
I'm telling you, don't waste
your time on that temptress.
Ethan. I see it.
What do we do? - Just...
Where's the animal
man? Just get out of here.
Hmm. He's a little guy.
Yeah, most people don't know
their venom is most
potent when they're babies.
Did you find him
in water? No, why?
There's an odd rough
patch on his skin.
I've seen that happen
to snakeskin shoes
when you step in saltwater.
Don't ask.
Mm-hm.
Ethan.
Hand me a swab.
A long one. NATHAN: Unh.
Here we go.
Beautiful, isn't it?
Uh, it looks like a snowflake.
That is a form of algae
that is found on the oysters
that you serve in your bar.
When you put the
snake in Amy's bag,
your hands were still wet
from unpacking the oysters,
and the salt water
dripped on the snake.
We talked to Sue,
your buddy at TSA.
You know about the
animals they confiscate,
including the snakes that
came from Africa four days ago.
You slipped one into Amy's
bag when she wasn't looking.
And why would I do that?
Amy had her whole
life planned out.
She knew what she wanted,
and you weren't a part of it.
I told you, Amy
and I were friends.
I had nothing to do with this.
You're lying, Mr. Quinn.
The diatoms that we
found in Amy's bone marrow
matched the ones from the
oysters that you served her
in your bar on
the night she died.
Only place in Philly where
you can find them fresh.
Come on, this was just
supposed to be a joke.
Help us understand.
Amy said she couldn't date
me on account of her job.
That night at the bar, she
kept talking about that doctor.
I guess it's okay to go
out with some rich guy,
but not slum it with
someone like me.
Oh, wait, heh, you were jealous.
You wanted to
teach her a lesson.
I heard about the baby snakes
that TSA found in
someone's luggage,
so, um...
So I took one and
I put it in a bag.
Weren't you afraid it
was gonna bite you?
I thought it was
too small to hurt...
Uh, hurt anyone, so...
You're lucky to
be alive, Mr. Quinn.
Because of your little joke,
Amy died a horrific death.
Twenty minutes of agony
as that venom ran
through her system.
As she bled out from
every part of her body.
Amy's mother is on her way up.
Okay, I'm almost done here.
I owe you an apology.
What for?
For letting myself get
caught in the middle.
For not...
totally thinking through what
would happen if I dated Todd.
It was selfish.
And now it's over.
Dr. Murphy?
Mrs. Green, please.
Either of you have children?
I have a daughter.
You want the world for them.
To protect them and guide them.
But the tighter you
try to hold them...
The more they slip away.
It's time to go home, Amy.
My sweet, sweet little girl.
Yeah, I got it.
Watermelon?
Now, since when have you
been crav...? No, no, I got it.
I'll be home in an hour.
You too.
Now, where are you
gonna find watermelon
in Philly this time of year?
Well, I'll start at
the Italian market,
and after that I'll
put out an APB.
What's this?
Well, you know, like you said,
naming a kid's a big decision.
And you need all
the help you can get.
I think that one has a
section on opera singers.
Well, thank you, Sam.
Jeannie will be very touched.
I can't believe Grandma
dragged me into your office.
That's all right. I've crashed
her office more than once.
Lace.
I'm sorry if you felt I was
deciding everything for you.
I know it bugs me when
people do that to me.
It drives you totally nuts.
Then I'm not gonna
do it anymore.
Truth is, you have two homes now
and two parents that
love you very much.
Now, follow me.
What happened?
Nothing.
It's yours.
To make whatever
you want it to be.
Really? I get to design it?
Heh, it's your room.
A place to dream
and make decisions.
All by yourself.
And if you want help,
I'll be right here.
Megan? In here, Mom.
Hi.
Your usual. Thank you.
So...
This is the room you
wanna do what with exactly?
I'm no interior decorator,
but I wanna fix it up for Lacey.
Interior designer. That's what
the professionals call them.
Okay, I wanna make it nice,
because Lacey's gonna
stay here more often.
Really? And you have all
this worked out with Todd?
Mom.
You're here to help
me pick out a color.
What do you think of that?
I think I should introduce
you to my interior designer.
Dr. Hunt.
Morning, Dr. Hunt. Hey, Dani.
Hey, I'm Dani. Oh,
you two haven't...?
No, but I've seen you around.
Yeah, you too. Sure. I'm Peter.
Nice to finally
meet you. You too.
Hey, Dani.
What's up with girls
using guys' names?
I think it's very cool.
Don't start, okay?
Some frat idiots
had an initiation
on a bridge upstream.
One of them used the
deceased as a lifeline.
Divers pulled her
out ten minutes ago.
Expensive lingerie.
Manicured nails.
Skin texture suggests
immersion for at least two days.
I assume we have no ID?
Nope. And nothing
from Missing Persons.
Superficial wounds, but
nothing that appears fatal yet.
Oh. That's a nice compound
fracture to the left humerus.
The divers had a rough time
pulling her up from the rocks.
So someone bludgeoned her,
or it was the
river or the divers.
Or a combination of all three.
Peter. Yeah.
Get water samples. Got it.
See you in autopsy.
You looking for guppies? Ha, ha.
Diatoms. They're unicellular
algae that thrive in water.
If she drowned, we
should find it in her blood.
I thought water in the
lungs determined drowning.
Well, yeah, but
these are good too.
And, uh, since they live in
colonies along the river then...
They'll help you figure
out where she went in.
You're a quick study.
That's what they tell me.
I appreciate you
dropping me off.
No, no. It's no problem.
We'll make up for
it next weekend.
I was thinking about
taking a trip somewhere.
Where?
Somewhere beyond
cell phone range.
What about Lacey?
Now that we're not
moving to California,
Megan's been angling to
spend more time with her.
It means more time for us too.
You okay? Yeah.
We'll talk about it later.
Isn't this your day off? Yep.
Do I wanna know? - Nope.
Dr. Murphy, you taking
another case away from me?
Oh, hell.
How about you accept
the help, Megan?
Why does that make me nervous?
If you are finished
with the coffee klatch,
can we get started, please?
We ran her prints. Got
a hit to an FBI database.
Her name is Amy Green.
As in the Old French Amée.
Uh, it means "beloved."
He's on the hunt for baby names.
Oh, that's sweet. Okay,
can we focus, please?
Any chance this young
woman just drowned?
Ethan is pulling femoral
blood to find diatoms.
We'll know soon enough.
Why was this girl's name
in the FBI database?
She was printed for her job.
Um, she worked
for Maven Industries
as a pharmaceutical rep.
Oh, she was a pharm girl.
I met quite a few of those
when I was a neurosurgeon.
Very ambitious.
We, uh, have an address
for a corporate apartment.
Still looking for her family.
Ugh, okay, this is weird.
Uh, I'm not getting any
blood from the femoral.
Check the other one.
There's some kind of fibrous
material under her nails.
We'll need pictures, Ethan.
Ethan. That's a great name.
Forever spoiled,
thank you very much.
I have got a compound
fracture to the left humerus.
Can't tell whether
ante or postmortem.
I'll put a rush on X-ray.
Well, she's been in
the water for a while.
Could be aquatic
animal activity.
Could you be more specific?
Fish bites. Ah.
Uh, I can't find any
blood in her arteries.
Could it have washed away?
Even if she
transected an artery,
there'd still be
some in her veins.
Okay, but I'm telling you,
there's no blood in
this woman's body.
Maybe she's a vampire?
Yeah, but see, vampires
have blood in their veins.
Not if another vampire
sucks it out of them.
You're perfect. What?
What? Uh...
Either way, you know,
vampires can't drown, so...
What is this, a
Twilight convention?
Dani, don't you have
some place to be?
I was invited. CURTIS: By who?
I just got this from the lab.
Come here, Dani.
What you got for me?
A diatom from the river.
Definitely not a guppy.
Hey, my turn, my turn.
Here we go, here we go, my turn.
I pulled this from
Amy's bone marrow.
So she did drown.
Yeah, but we have a problem.
Yes, you do.
They don't match.
You sure this is right?
It's right. I
double-checked myself.
Amy had diatoms in her
bone marrow. She drowned.
But they didn't come
from Schuylkill River.
So where did they come from?
We found her body here.
She drowned here.
The Gulf of Maine?
Are you sure this
is the right place?
It's the address that
Amy's company gave me.
Number 3 City Lofts.
Well... Oh, no, I'm...
Excuse me.
Does Amy Green live here?
Yes, but she's in
Denver right now.
Hi, my name is Molly
Anderson. Himstim regional rep.
It's the next Viagra.
You wanna try it?
Oh, um, wife's pregnant.
Well, that is the
best time to use it.
Try telling my wife.
So, what is your
specialty, doctor?
Uh, urology?
Cardiology? Psychology?
Criminology.
How long have you
all been roommates?
Almost two years.
I can't believe Amy's dead.
So Beth, you were
Amy's assistant.
And, Molly, you worked for
Amy's biggest competitor?
Mm-hm, that's right.
And yet you have a
product party here?
We're all friends, detectives.
We help each other out.
When was the last time
either of you saw Amy?
Two days ago. Here
at the apartment.
She was going to the airport.
She went to Denver
for a conference.
After that, she was supposed
to visit her family in Iowa.
We have reason to believe
Amy was in Maine two days ago.
Do you have any idea why
she might have been there?
Well, Amy was seeing somebody,
but I thought she
broke it off with him.
Name? I don't know.
It wasn't serious.
Some guys are for
marrying, others guys are for...
Himstim?
So Amy didn't drown.
There's no middle
ear hemorrhaging
or pulmonary edema.
So how do you
explain the diatoms?
We can't. Any more than we
can explain the loss of blood.
Anything from Bud and Sam?
Yeah, Amy was dating
some mystery guy.
Did you find any evidence that
shows she was seeing somebody
the night that she died?
How about her last meal? - Ah.
Seafood. Rare belon oysters.
You just happen to
know that? I know food.
The lab ID'd them. Also ID'd...
Diatoms. That's how
they got into her system.
From eating oysters?
Diatoms are oyster food,
and Amy had ulcerations
in her stomach.
Ulcers act like a freeway
for diatoms to enter her blood.
Okay, so where
would somebody find
rare belon oysters in Philly?
What you looking at me for?
Okay. I know a place
that flies them in fresh.
American Airlines flight 221,
now boarding.
These oysters come packed
in their own seawater. Try one?
No. Flown in fresh, huh?
Oh, yeah. My buddy
in TSA hooks me up.
The only place in Philly
you can find them fresh.
Mm. CHRIS: Ah?
Verdict? Oh, that's delicious.
You recognize her?
Yeah, that looks like
Sweetness. Sweetness?
Chris gives us all
nicknames. It's so cute.
I'm Sassy. And you must be...
Giggles.
What are you asking
about Amy for?
You know Amy?
Was Amy in two nights ago?
Ugh, it was busy,
so I can't really say.
What's this about, anyway?
Amy was pulled from
the Schuylkill this morning.
Oh, my God. She drowned?
We're not sure how she died.
Well, if you do
remember anything,
you let us know, all right?
Yeah.
So two nights ago,
they were to be on
a flight to Denver,
but Amy stayed behind,
and they were under
the distinct impression
that she blew off
the trip for a date.
Amy was a very determined girl.
She had to do
everything her own way.
How so, Mrs. Green?
The job with Maven?
I was against her taking it.
Why is that?
Amy was so nice.
Always had the best intentions.
And the pharmaceutical
business can be cutthroat.
I was afraid the job
would change her.
Amy had ulcers, Mrs. Green.
Was anything bothering her?
Was she unusually stressed?
Not that I know of.
Was she in a relationship?
She didn't talk about anyone.
Her only concern was her job.
I should have fought harder.
I shouldn't have let her go.
We're gonna find who did this.
When can I bring her home?
We still have to determine
exactly how she died.
I promise we'll let you
know as soon as we can.
Here's the footage
from two nights ago.
Need anything, I'll be in
there with Animal Control.
Someone brought a dozen
Jesus Lizards from Costa Rica
onboard a 747 this morning.
- Ha, ha.
Well, thanks, Sue.
Parents Johnny Cash
fans? What do you think?
He's Sue, you're
Sam, she's Dani.
What the hell is going on?
Will you stop stressing
about baby names?
It's the first decision
you make for your kid.
It's a lot of pressure.
Hold it. Check this out.
That's Amy in the green suit.
And that is not a
secret boyfriend.
That is Amy's assistant, Beth.
She told us she last saw
Amy at the apartment.
She lied.
Mom, Dad's waiting in the
car. I can't be late for school.
Okay, okay. I just wanna
show you this really quick.
It's just... It's a mess now,
but I've got this
interior decorator,
I mean, a designer, helping me.
I thought it was fine before.
Yeah, for every other weekend,
but since you're spending more
time here, I want it to be nice.
More time here?
That's what you said, isn't it?
That you wanna stay in
Philadelphia to be with me.
Yeah, and my
friends and Grandma.
Yeah, of course, but...
You wanna spend
more time here, right?
Sure.
Here you are.
Is it just me, Beth, or
have you had a makeover?
I've been promoted
to Amy's position.
Have you now?
So you lied to us about
Amy going out of town.
I was scared to say
anything in front of Molly.
Scared, why?
Amy blew off Denver
to chase a big account.
But Amy was dead
when we talked to you.
Why would you care
if Molly found out?
Unless you wanted
the account for yourself.
Oh.
Detectives, I'm not
a violent person.
Try again. Five years
ago, assault and battery
reduced to a misdemeanor.
I was in veterinary
school interning at the zoo.
Some drunk tried to jump
a fence so I tackled him,
and the jerk pressed charges.
Look, Amy gave me a
chance to reinvent myself.
She took me under her
wing. I would never hurt her.
Where did you take Amy
after you picked her
up from the airport?
Dr. David Cryer's office.
He's a bigwig cardiologist
at the pharmacy and therapeutics
board at Philly General.
It's a huge account.
Everyone wants it.
So I reviewed the x-rays.
Hairline fractures to her
lower extremities, wrists
and right frontoparietal.
All antemortem.
Has Todd said anything to you
about Lacey spending
more time with me?
No.
You know, the more time
she spends at my place,
the more time you
have with Todd, alone.
Win-win. Exactly.
Compound fracture to her
humerus transected the artery here.
But it was postmortem.
So still no explanation
for blood loss.
Well, I have petechial
hemorrhaging
on the serosal
surfaces of the organs.
Right and left side.
Could be caused by infection,
asphyxia, toxic exposure.
Or a drug.
We need to find out what kind
of drugs these girls are selling.
Could you get
Dr. Cryer out here?
If you wanna see the doctor,
you have to make an appointment.
I don't think you understand.
This is a murder investigation.
You have to make an appointment.
You wanna be
arrested for obstruction?
Alice, those are
really pretty flowers.
Are they from someone special?
No. They're Dr. Cryer's
favorite, birds of paradise.
He gets them fresh every day.
So there is nobody special?
Come on, I don't believe that.
Looking forward to
your business, Dr. Cryer.
Jarvis Pharmaceuticals
will take care of you.
I'm sure they will.
Molly, fancy seeing you here.
Girl's gotta work, detective.
Who's next?
We are.
Amy was here, uh,
a couple of days ago
pitching Maven's
new beta blocker.
Why didn't you buy from her?
Molly's company is bigger. I
knew they'd cut a better deal.
Amy give you
Maven's products? Yes.
Did Amy's assistant, Beth,
ever contact Dr. Cryer?
Just to send over samples.
We're gonna need those samples.
Sorry, I have confidentiality
agreements with the companies.
Come on, you're the gatekeeper.
You know exactly what kind
of samples these girls leave.
Oh, baby, they leave
more than samples.
Try pens, mugs, squeezy
balls, notepads, food.
What kind of food? Oysters.
Amy brought them for
me every time we met.
Her boyfriend had a contact.
Boyfriend?
Chris, the way you lied
to us, it wasn't just stupid,
it was insulting.
You knew we were talking to
Amy's co-workers, her friends.
What did you think
was gonna happen?
I didn't lie. You sat
there shucking oysters
while your girlfriend
lay dead in the morgue.
Why didn't you tell us
you were seeing Amy?
Because I wasn't.
- Amy broke up with me.
- Okay, so Amy comes...
Amy comes back into town,
you try to hook up, she refuses.
That the way it went
down? You're wrong.
Amy and I got along.
We're both from small
towns, blue-collar families.
Amy was...
She was sweet, but she
was also smart, driven.
She knew what she
wanted. And it wasn't you.
How did she die, anyway?
Someone gave her
a drug. Doctor, you...
Did Amy talk about
drugs she was selling?
Anything that she had
to be extra careful with?
No. Dr. Hunt?
Outside?
You're giving the
suspect information.
I thought he could
help us with COD.
Well, that is your
job, not the suspect's.
And, hey, never bring
that thing in here again.
This was about Lacey.
When you have your
kid, you'll understand.
Lacey.
That a family name?
No, it just came to me
the first time I held her.
She was soft and delicate.
What would've happened if
she was crabby and whiny?
I would have called her Bud.
Dr. Hunt, I'm so
glad I caught you...
Put a rush on those drug
samples Amy left at Cryer's office.
Already done. Can you
slow down? I want results
on the trace that we
found under Amy's nails.
Bud wants evidence linking
this Chris Quinn to Amy's death.
I'll look right into it.
Can you just stop,
so I could talk to you?
I'm just trying to warn you.
Grandmother, you
really shouldn't touch that.
Grandma, seriously.
Lacey, are you all right?
No, she's not.
She called very upset.
Aren't you, Lacey?
Well, uh, I mean, I guess, yeah.
Hi, uh, Ethan said
you wanted to see me?
Megan didn't, I did.
I wasn't able to reach Todd,
or he would've been here too.
You see, you're all
making decisions for Lacey
without asking what
she really wants.
I am not the one who is
trying to drag her to California.
I'm not making
decisions for anybody.
Oh, you spending the night
at Lacey's isn't your decision?
Ethan, what is it?
Uh, update on the trace
under Amy's fingernails.
Can't that wait? No.
Lace, I'll talk to you later.
Mother...
I don't even know
where to begin.
Thanks a lot, Grandma.
I just... I don't
wanna talk about it.
I didn't hear anything.
Now I know where you
got your interpersonal skills.
Did you find something?
Yes, the fibrous material
under Amy's fingernails
are tiny bits of
some kind of paper
along with traces of arsenic.
Only there was no
arsenic in her tox.
So no COD. Wait, can I?
It may not tell us how she
died, but it could tell us where.
I did an autopsy once on a
guy who restored old houses.
He died of arsenic toxicity.
Arsenic used to be used
to preserve wallpaper.
Forensics tracked the wallpaper
to locktender houses
built along the river.
The historical society
is trying to save this one.
They're sending us a
list of members, donors,
anyone who might
have had access.
Hey. Looks like we've
got nail marks here.
And even a little blood.
She scratched at the walls.
You smell that?
Yeah, bleach.
Go get the Luminol.
Oh, my God.
This can't all be...
Yeah, it is.
Good God, what happened here?
Now we know where
all of her blood went.
It was Chris, the bartender.
He was angry at Amy.
He saw her at the airport,
grabbed her,
brought her out here.
Well, that's how she got here.
But how does someone
lose this much blood?
Baker.
There were no wounds
that could have caused this.
You gotta go back to
the body, right, doctor?
You guys must have
missed something.
We didn't miss
anything, detective.
I found petechial
hemorrhaging in her organs.
It had to have been caused by
some drug that Amy ingested.
Something that made her
exsanguinate from every orifice.
She would have been in
agony, screaming, flailing around.
It's possible that the
wounds are self-inflicted.
That was Lopez.
Chris alibied out.
He was working
the night Amy died.
Peter, get blood
samples to the lab.
You shouldn't have any
problem finding enough.
Yeah.
Okay, I'll put a
rush on them. Bye.
What's up? That was Megan.
Amy died of a
systemic bleed out.
Oh, man. That's a
horrible way to go.
Yeah. Get the lab to run those
drug samples for anticoagulants.
There are other things that
can cause someone to bleed out.
And we're gonna rule
out every one of them.
If she picked up some
toxin or hemorrhagic virus,
we could have a full-blown
crisis on our hands.
Should I even ask?
Ugh, I'm just tired of
being in the middle.
Sister, I feel your pain.
Your corporation donates to
the historical society, Dr. Cryer,
and you personally are
the single largest contributor
to the Locktender
House restoration.
I support my community. So?
You reserved that house
for a party the night Amy died.
- You guys are off-base.
- Really?
You're a cardiologist. You
have access to anticoagulants.
What happened? Amy
discover you were married?
We can put you in that room.
It was a fling. There
was nothing serious.
You brought flowers and
watched her bleed to death.
That is not what happened.
Look, we went into the house,
Amy said she wanted to change
into something nice for me.
I went outside to call my wife
to tell her I'd be working late.
Oh, classy.
When I went back in that
room, Amy was already dead.
Amy tried to claw her
way out of that room.
She had to have been screaming
in agony. You didn't hear that?
I had to walk to the top
of the hill to get reception.
Heh, right. Your wife. Hmm.
Look, there was blood
everywhere, so I panicked,
I wrapped her up in a blanket
and I carried her to the river.
Hmm, that's when you
broke out the bleach.
I didn't want it to get back
to me. It'd ruin my marriage.
It's gonna do more than that.
Put your hands behind your
back. You're under arrest.
What for?
If it were up to me,
being a horrible person.
But try tampering with evidence.
Disposal of a body.
And possibly murder.
You have the right
to remain silent.
Anything you say
DR. CRYER: This is ridiculous.
Will be used in a court of law.
You have the
right to an attorney.
If you cannot
afford an attorney,
an attorney will

PETER: Hello. Peter...
I need a list of all
the anticoagulants
that Dr. Cryer
used in his practice.
Got it. And, oh, your
interior decorator called.
Designer. What?
It's an interior de...
Um, well, never mind.
What? What did she want?
You're not gonna like it.
First you insist that
I use your designer,
then you tell her that she
can't work for me anymore?
Megan... MEGAN: And by the way,
who the hell are you
to come to my office
and lecture me about parenting?
Megan, this is Assistant
District Attorney Ben Allen.
Ben, I'd like you to meet
my daughter, Megan.
Hello.
Could you please
excuse us for a minute?
Sure. Judge, to be continued.
It was nice meeting you.
He's good-looking, isn't he?
Not that he'd be interested in
you at all after that entrance.
Why did you cancel the designer?
Well, in your office, I just
realized that I was interfering.
Interfering?
You accused me of doing to Lacey
what you have been doing
to me for my entire life.
Controlling everything.
My schools, my career.
You picked out what
clothes I should wear,
the color of my bedroom,
the boys I should be dating.
And look at the results.
Yeah. I resent the
hell out of you for it.
Well, maybe you
should learn from it too.
Oh, don't you worry.
Lacey is never
gonna feel about me
the way I feel about you.
Hey, Peter, did you get
a list of anticoagulants
from Cryer's office?
They won't give it up.
Heh, seems your
charms only go so far.
This might not matter.
I checked with the FDA.
None of the anticoags
approved for sale in the U.S.
match Amy's symptoms.
Maybe it was Ebola.
Ebo... Dani, I hired
you to be a driver,
not a medical consultant.
Easy, Dr. Brumfield. I
just dropped off a body.
Yeah, easy, Dr. Brumfield.
You know, I think Ebola is
an interesting suggestion.
If it was Ebola, you two
would be dead by now, fool.
Maybe we're looking
for an experimental drug.
How are we gonna get specs
on an experimental drug?
Some companies do
their clinical trials overseas.
So?
Uh, hello, my name is Dr. Dunlop
and I have a cardiology
practice in Sydney.
And, uh, a colleague
of mine, Dr. Cryer,
recommended that I contact you.
That accent is hilarious.
You like that? How about this?
This is Dr. Gross.
Do you have...? I'm
calling about anticoagulants.
How about this?
You have any new drugs?
Shh!
Did you see this e-mail?
None of the drug samples
from our pharm girls
have anticoags in them.
Maybe because what killed
Amy isn't on the market yet.
Jarvis International is coming
out with a new anticoagulant.
And guess who the
rep is. Molly Anderson?
Bud and Sam are
trying to track her down.
See if they can
get samples. Okay.
So then, just tell me.
Why have you been
avoiding my calls?
I guess I've...
realized that getting
involved with you
wasn't such a great idea.
Because?
You're my colleague's
ex-husband for starters.
And Megan's trying to forge
a relationship with Lacey,
and I keep winding up in
the middle of it somehow.
Kate, don't. Those
are just excuses.
It's got nothing to
do with you and me.
That's exactly the problem.
This has never been
just about you and me.
Look, I care about you,
and I would never ask you
to change your life for me.
But I just know that
this isn't working.
I'm sorry.
It's over.
Molly. Molly.
We need to look in
your bag. What for?
Amy was killed by a
powerful anticoagulant.
Jarvis is rolling out a
new one next month.
As their rep, you have the
samples and the spec sheets.
We wanna see them.
You think I killed Amy?
- You were after the same account.
- We can look here
or at the police station.
Hey, be my guest.
There are lots of new
anticoags out there.
And there are a lot of reps that
wanted that account with Cryer.
Jarvis said they
sent her the samples.
Where are they?
Just because I landed
the Cryer account
doesn't mean that I killed Amy.
Molly, wait.
You knew Amy was having
an affair with Dr. Cryer,
didn't you?
Did she end it with him?
I don't know anything.
I thought you were her friend.
Were you lying about that too?
We cannot pin Amy's
murder on anyone
until we confirm
what drug killed her.
So I take it you
struck out with Molly.
Ugh, she might have
been smart and driven,
but Amy was naive to
think that girl was her friend.
Dr. Hunt. Dr. Hunt.
Speak of the devil.
What happened, miss your flight?
My best friend is murdered,
and all I care about
is another sale. It's...
The pharm business is cutthroat,
but Amy still cared
about her friends.
And she was always there for me.
The least I can do
is be there for her.
Specs on Jarvis'
new anticoagulant.
There's something else.
Amy was having an
affair with Dr. Cryer,
but you have it backwards.
Amy didn't break up with Cryer,
she was madly in love with him.
He told her he was
gonna leave his wife.
Thank you.
Just catch whoever
did this to Amy.
None of these drug
reactions match.
I think it's time for Dr. Cryer
to see his girlfriend again.
What is this? Why am I here?
We still don't know
what killed Amy.
And since you watched her
die, we thought you could help.
I didn't kill her.
So...
you want us to believe
that you went outside
because Amy wanted to change.
And you called your wife.
How long were you gone?
Twenty minutes. My, um...
My daughter wanted
a bedtime story.
You told your kid a story
while Amy bled to death?
Like I said, I just...
I found her dead on the floor.
How? What did she look like?
Ugh, she was, um...
frozen in the fetal position.
Frozen in terror?
Fists clenched? Mouth open?
Uh, no, she was holding herself.
What do you mean?
Show me.
Um...
This arm was, um...
wrapped under here like she
was, uh, trying to stop the pain.
Get him out of here.
What are you looking for?
Brachial vein.
Missed it because
of the fish bites.
Whoa.
What are those from? Injections?
Fangs.
So she was bitten by a snake?
Its hemotoxic venom entered
her body through the brachial vein,
causing her to exsanguinate.
I ran the specs of
venom by a herpetologist.
He's pretty sure we're
looking at this little fella,
a Gaboon viper from Africa.
The timeline matches up.
One bite can cause you
to bleed out in 20 minutes.
How does an African snake
wind up in a house in Philly?
Ah, maybe it escaped from a zoo?
Or maybe it was stolen.
Amy's assistant
used to work at a zoo.
Follow up with Bud and Sam.
In the meantime, we
need to find that snake.
Oh, I hate snakes.
It's the murder weapon.
I'll look for it.
Not by yourself, you won't.
You're the animal
control expert.
You know, where
would it be hiding?
It's a nocturnal snake.
Could be under the house.
Or in the rafters.
What? In the rafters?
Who's going up there?
Hopefully...
he'll come to us.
Uh, excuse me, sir.
Sir? Hey, what's that for?
Vipers are attracted
to vibrations. Music.
Now, remember, don't
do anything to provoke it.
One bite, it's over.
That's it? Nothing we can do?
Severing a limb could work.
I'll start under the house.
That wasn't comforting.
I tell you what, if the snake
bites me, just cut off my arm.
Yeah, yeah, uh, and
if the snake bites me,
just tell Dani I
was thinking of her.
I'm telling you, don't waste
your time on that temptress.
Ethan. I see it.
What do we do? - Just...
Where's the animal
man? Just get out of here.
Hmm. He's a little guy.
Yeah, most people don't know
their venom is most
potent when they're babies.
Did you find him
in water? No, why?
There's an odd rough
patch on his skin.
I've seen that happen
to snakeskin shoes
when you step in saltwater.
Don't ask.
Mm-hm.
Ethan.
Hand me a swab.
A long one. NATHAN: Unh.
Here we go.
Beautiful, isn't it?
Uh, it looks like a snowflake.
That is a form of algae
that is found on the oysters
that you serve in your bar.
When you put the
snake in Amy's bag,
your hands were still wet
from unpacking the oysters,
and the salt water
dripped on the snake.
We talked to Sue,
your buddy at TSA.
You know about the
animals they confiscate,
including the snakes that
came from Africa four days ago.
You slipped one into Amy's
bag when she wasn't looking.
And why would I do that?
Amy had her whole
life planned out.
She knew what she wanted,
and you weren't a part of it.
I told you, Amy
and I were friends.
I had nothing to do with this.
You're lying, Mr. Quinn.
The diatoms that we
found in Amy's bone marrow
matched the ones from the
oysters that you served her
in your bar on
the night she died.
Only place in Philly where
you can find them fresh.
Come on, this was just
supposed to be a joke.
Help us understand.
Amy said she couldn't date
me on account of her job.
That night at the bar, she
kept talking about that doctor.
I guess it's okay to go
out with some rich guy,
but not slum it with
someone like me.
Oh, wait, heh, you were jealous.
You wanted to
teach her a lesson.
I heard about the baby snakes
that TSA found in
someone's luggage,
so, um...
So I took one and
I put it in a bag.
Weren't you afraid it
was gonna bite you?
I thought it was
too small to hurt...
Uh, hurt anyone, so...
You're lucky to
be alive, Mr. Quinn.
Because of your little joke,
Amy died a horrific death.
Twenty minutes of agony
as that venom ran
through her system.
As she bled out from
every part of her body.
Amy's mother is on her way up.
Okay, I'm almost done here.
I owe you an apology.
What for?
For letting myself get
caught in the middle.
For not...
totally thinking through what
would happen if I dated Todd.
It was selfish.
And now it's over.
Dr. Murphy?
Mrs. Green, please.
Either of you have children?
I have a daughter.
You want the world for them.
To protect them and guide them.
But the tighter you
try to hold them...
The more they slip away.
It's time to go home, Amy.
My sweet, sweet little girl.
Yeah, I got it.
Watermelon?
Now, since when have you
been crav...? No, no, I got it.
I'll be home in an hour.
You too.
Now, where are you
gonna find watermelon
in Philly this time of year?
Well, I'll start at
the Italian market,
and after that I'll
put out an APB.
What's this?
Well, you know, like you said,
naming a kid's a big decision.
And you need all
the help you can get.
I think that one has a
section on opera singers.
Well, thank you, Sam.
Jeannie will be very touched.
I can't believe Grandma
dragged me into your office.
That's all right. I've crashed
her office more than once.
Lace.
I'm sorry if you felt I was
deciding everything for you.
I know it bugs me when
people do that to me.
It drives you totally nuts.
Then I'm not gonna
do it anymore.
Truth is, you have two homes now
and two parents that
love you very much.
Now, follow me.
What happened?
Nothing.
It's yours.
To make whatever
you want it to be.
Really? I get to design it?
Heh, it's your room.
A place to dream
and make decisions.
All by yourself.
And if you want help,
I'll be right here.
