Rizzoli & Isles (2010–2016): Season 1, Episode 9 - The Beast in Me - full transcript

We're waiting on the warrant.
Can't touch the car.

- I've been sitting here for 20 minutes!
- You're in a hurry for your latte.

- I got to get to work!
- Shut up!

What's going on here?

Come on!
How hard is it to get a warrant signed?

Could you move your car, please?

- Where's Maura?
- Stuck in traffic.

She shouldn't wear high heels
to a crime scene.

Why not?
These are very comfortable.

- I bet you can run in them, too.
- I don't think that's a good idea.

Come on!



What's the problem?

We can't get inside yet.
We're waiting on a warrant.

All right, already. We're tryin'.

- Move the damn car!
- Buddy, this is a crime scene.

So move the damn crime scene!

You keep interfering,
you could spend your weekend in jail.

That's why.

All the judges took off early
for the holiday weekend.

I'd like to be a judge someday.

I'd like to run off
and join the circus.

I ordered a tow.

Anybody want to bet what gets here first,
tow truck or warrant?

Ice pick?

- What do you think?
- Haven't seen a kill like this



since the days of Whitey Bulger
and the Winter Hill gang.

Always sad I missed
the Irish crime wars.

Don't be. Bloodbath from Somerville
to Charlestown.

I was a rookie, but I saw things...

I don't ever want to see again.

One ice pick
doesn't make a crime war.

Let's hope not.

Took you long enough.

Good morning, Rizzoli.
You can be as bitchy as you like.

What's the male equivalent for "bitchy"?
Dick-y?

Keep 'em coming. I'm getting
time and a half just listening.

Get the uniforms and move all
these cars as fast as you can.

No hurry, my brother.
Go into double time in 20 minutes.

Then I go talk to the commander,
tell him to hire a new tow-truck company

if you're not out of here in 10.

Get that to the evidence garage.

What about him?

Take him, too.
And don't charge the city extra.

- Yes, your highness.
- Without the attitude, please.

Season 1 Episode 9
The Beast In Me

There's no registration in here.
Anybody find an ID?

- Nothing.
- Ran the plates.

Registered to a dummy corporation.
Guy's a ghost.

So, John Doe, mid 20s.
He was in good health.

Except for the ice pick
sticking out of his ear.

Thanks.

There's no fingerprints
on the vehicle.

- Not even on the door handle.
- He had none to leave.

- What?
- Burn scars.

Consistent with acid exposure.

Ouch.

It's deliberate.

Excruciatingly painful process.

There are 250 nerve receptors
per square centimeter in fingertips.

So it would feel like
a bazillion paper cuts.

Scoring the skin
is the initial process.

The additional pain would feel like

each cut was being pulled apart
by a pair of tweezers

and doused with acid.

I think it's safe to say
this guy went to great lengths

- to remain a ghost.
- That's conjecture.

I'm gonna be crazy
and conjecture this, too.

- Rizzoli, you gotta see this.
- What do you got?

Hello, Mr. Bourne Identity.
What...

Colorado, Pennsylvania, New York.

- And look at all the passports.
- John Woodbury.

- Adam Smith.
- Maybe that's why he was killed.

Maybe he stole the wrong ID.

What do you think?
ID theft deal gone bad?

Could still be organized crime.

Used to be just about running
weapons, drugs, money.

Now it's also Internet fraud.

That would explain
all the ATM cards.

Check this out.
Our victim was an artist.

Look like they've been done
by a computer.

They're by hand.

This may be evidence
of a very high IQ.

How much more evidence
would you need?

Extensive use of polyhedra.

Geometric signs in three dimensions
with flat faces and straight edges.

Sure.

I like that stuff.

This guy may be a thief,
but he sure could draw.

Those are cool.

You find anything?

Cause of death:
massive cerebral hemorrhage

caused by an ice pick
penetrating the brain.

I figured the ice pick
had something to do with it.

I meant, find anything
that helps us know who he is.

- Did you run his dental records?
- Yes. No match.

But you can't hide your DNA.

I'm waiting for the results.

He was clever.
I'll give him that.

We found over $200,000 in charges
and ATM withdrawals,

and we're only halfway through
his stolen identities.

It's a shame that they penetrated
his temporal lobe.

That would have been
an excellent brain to study.

Bummer.

You know what doesn't
make sense to me?

Why would a big-time identity thief
drive around in a crappy car?

Economy car.

Why, 'cause he didn't want
to flash his cash?

This is Dr. Isles.

What?

That's not possible.

- 'Cause I'm looking at it right now.
- What's the matter?

They're saying that there's a problem
with the DNA samples of our John Doe.

Yes, no, I see it,
but it's not possible.

I don't cross-contaminate
my samples.

Maura, come on.
You're not perfect.

Send another sample.

I'll call you back.

It's not possible.

Maura, everybody makes mistakes.
Just send it again.

No, it's not a mistake.

This is the victim's DNA profile.

This is my DNA profile.

You see the autosomal markers?
They're the same in both samples.

The lab keeps
all of our genetic profiles

just in case
we contaminate a sample.

So, obviously,
it's been contaminated.

There's enough markers
in the comparison of the DNA...

to make a definitive conclusion.

So what are we concluding?

Just look.

They match.

And how did that happen?

You must have done something screwy.

No. I didn't.

- It's a biological match.
- What are you telling me?

That the guy on the table here
is somehow related to you?

I'm telling you that the man
laying there is my brother.

He was actually my half-brother.

You know this from the DNA?

We shared the same father
but not the same mother.

It's so odd.

I have a blood relative.

I'm so sorry, Maura.

I'm fidgeting.

I'm fidgeting.
I never fidget.

Yes, welcome to the human race.

I always wondered
what it would be like to have a sibling.

More than what it would be like
to meet my biological parents.

- That seems normal.
- I don't know anything about him.

I don't know his name.

All I know is that he was a thief.

And a brilliant artist.

It's not enough.

How did he end up on my table?

Why did he do what he did?
What if I never know?

What do you know
about your biological parents?

Nothing.

My parents told me
that my adoption was private...

with their lawyer.

All they knew was my birthday.

- Maybe that's not even right.
- Are you gonna tell them about this?

No, I didn't even tell them

when I tried to find
my biological mother and father

before I started college.

- What'd you find out?
- All the files were useless

or sealed by a court order.

I may have wanted to know them,
but they didn't want to know me.

What can I do?

I need to know who did this to him.

Hey, pop.

Want a cup of coffee?

No, I had too much already.

Everything okay?

Yeah, everything's fine.

I wish business was a little better,
but I woke up this morning, right?

So how bad could it be?

- Business is down?
- Way down.

Hey, Murray.
This is my dad, Frank Sr.

- Nice to meet you.
- You too.

- Murray was on the force for 25 years.
- Really?

26.

Got a little sick of it.

- What about you?
- I'm a plumber.

Just paid some joker
from Mission Hill 5 grand

to repair the galvanized feed pipe
behind the bar.

Listen to this.

That's five big ones down the drain.

Guy won't call me back.

I don't get it fixed,
I'm gonna have to close down.

- He's your man.
- I'm pretty good.

- You're being modest.
- I'm all right.

He redid all the copper in
that pizza place up on Grant.

- With a crew, Frankie.
- How long did that take you?

- With a crew? It was...
- Not long.

Trust me, Murray. He's gonna
take care of all your problems.

I think you better redo both the cold
and hot lines. I want copper, too.

- Copper?
- And I can go 3 grand all-in.

3 grand?

- Take the work.
- Deal?

Deal. Sure.

Great.
Get you a set of keys.

- All right.
- Excuse me.

I can't afford to do it for that price
without a crew. I can't do it.

- So get a crew.
- I got a better idea.

- What? Are you kidding me?
- You got me into this. You gotta help.

No way!
I was trying to get you some work!

- There you go. Nice to meet you.
- Good to meet you, too.

- See you, Frankie.
- See you, Murray.

Rizzoli and sons.

We have the same nasal
and zygomatic facial structuring.

There are also similar patterns
in our supraorbital foramen

and the angle of our jaw line.

You see?

I do. I see the resemblance.

I don't know why I'm being
so emotional about this,

now that I know we're related.

I never knew him.
I never will.

Maura,
if this is too much for you...

Here.
You should have this.

No, that's evidence.
You have to put that back.

I made copies and I know
where they are if I need them.

Keep it for now.

Really?

Here.

Monet used to paint
the same thing over and over.

Sat in the same place day after day,

painted the same view.

He's drawing the same view.

That's a building, isn't it?

It looks like he's drawing it
throughout the day.

You see how the light changes?

And he's drawing it...

day after day because...

this is where he lives.

His drawings are precisely to scale,

so with a little trigonometry

and some spherical geometry...

We can figure out
what it is he's drawing.

That's the financial district.

There.

That's State Street.

Perfect match.
That is the building he was drawing.

So he must have been
looking at it from...

There.

Been vacant a while.

Looks like it's in probate.
Smart.

- Probate takes about a year?
- Free rent. Off the radar.

Let's go inside.

It's an alarm.

- Come on out with your hands up.
- You heard her! On your feet!

Now!

Your bag on the desk!

Hands behind your head.

You guys got a warrant?

- You got a lease?
- What are you charging me with?

Trespassing, for starters.

Look at your little family business
making your ATM cards.

You know him?

Sit down.

You don't know him,
but you live together,

you do your little crafts together.

It's pretty hefty.

Might have been competitive 10 years ago,
but you're a little behind the times.

You can't just do that.
That belongs to me.

Thank you for admitting it's yours.

It makes the criminal case
go much faster.

You want to tell us what this is?

You said it, man. It's a bad attempt
at competing with Steve Jobs.

I have a hunch that you're much better
at computer than you are at lying.

Come on, pal.

Drew Beckett, 25, one of the biggest
names in computer hacking.

Two years ago,
he's indicted by a federal grand jury

for hacking into the mainframe
at the Department of Defense.

- You know how many firewalls he jumped?
- Why, you thinking about trying it?

That's above my pay grade.

Charges were dropped
on a technicality.

What's his tie to the vic?

This.

Watch.

It's an encryption scanner
used for network enumeration.

It's pretty cutting-edge.
But our software was able to crack

its binary and source codes.

Let me guess.
We now know where Jimmy Hoffa's buried.

It's the most advanced piece of criminal
technology I've ever seen.

You got your wallet?

Check this out.

How'd you do that?

62 bucks at Dairy Freeze.

What the hell did you eat?

It's set up so you can run it
near any open Wi-Fi.

Pulls all the info off the electronic
chips on any card you're carrying.

Remind me to start using cash.

It gets crazier.
It was built for identity theft.

But it also has the ability
to work backwards.

They programmed in
a complex math formula

to decode encryptions.

Decode what that means for me.

It not only steals identities,
it could also reveal them.

So our vic burns
his fingerprints off,

but this contraption
can still tell who he was?

And we think Beckett used it
to sell him out.

So the two built this unit together,

and then Beckett used it
to identify John Doe's real identity.

- So who is he?
- Here's what's stored: Colin Doyle.

But he's not in the system.

He won't be.

Look up Patrick Doyle.

- Why? Who's that?
- You heard of Paddy Doyle?

Of course.
The Irish mob. The enforcer.

- Colin was his son.
- What?

Doyle was
Whitey Bulger's right-hand man.

Disappeared about the same time
Bulger did. Been in hiding for 20 years.

Oh, my God.

But that's not all.

Looks like our guy Beckett
just had $250,000

deposited into an offshore account.

- Somebody paid him.
- For selling out Colin Doyle.

No one ever knew
what happened to the kid.

But why kill the son
if you want the old man?

Even we knew, if anyone found Colin,
they could flush out Paddy Doyle.

Blood is thick with that clan.

This man is her to identify his son.

This is mister...

Selsi.

Your roommate and friend...

Colin, Colin Doyle.

- You got him killed.
- I didn't know they were gonna kill him.

You think they were gonna pay you
a quarter million dollars

to find out where he was
to throw him a party?

I'm the only one
who can help you out of this.

That doesn't matter.

You're looking
at first-degree murder.

You understand that?

- Tell me who you sold the info to.
- I tell you that, they'll come after me.

- We can protect you.
- You can't protect me.

Nobody can protect me.
Look at Colin.

You understand you're looking at life,
without parole.

Good.
Any life sounds pretty good about now.

I'll take my chances behind bars.

I'm very sorry for your loss.

How was he killed?

He died from a cerebral hemorrhage.

I want to know how.

An ice pick.

He was stabbed with an ice pick.

I'm terribly sorry.
We're looking for his killer.

What was he like?

He was too much like his old man.

I've seen his drawings.
He was brilliant.

I have them if you'd like one
to take with you to remember him.

I'm not gonna forget my son.

May I get you some water?

We have some right here...

I'll make it easy for you,
if that's what you want.

Goodbye, Maura.

I sent his blood samples
to the crime lab, but...

I have no doubt
that this man is my father.

- Since when do you jump to conclusions?
- Since I found out who I really am.

Look at this. Stabbed...
Shot, shot...

Shot. Come on...

Oh, my God.
Did you see what I did?

He does that.

He introduced himself as Mr. Selsi.

It's "Isles", my adoptive name,
spelled backward.

- I know. You keep saying that.
- He was toying with me from the start,

while he was staring
at his murdered son.

Come on. He came to say
a final goodbye to Colin,

and he knew you wanted a DNA sample,
so he gave you some of his blood.

- That's a guy with balls!
- You're defending a stone-cold killer.

No, I'm n...

Yes, I am.

And I'm gonna stop now.

I think that whoever killed Colin

knew that his murder
would draw Patrick out.

If it makes you feel better,
these were all bad guys.

He said Colin was too much like him.

What about me?

Look what I do for a living.
I'm around more death than he is.

But you're not the one
doing the killing.

Maura, listen to me.
You are in danger.

No, I'm not.

As long as Patrick Doyle
is out there, yes, you are.

He's not gonna kill me.

Whoever killed Colin
will not hesitate to kill you

if they figure out who you are.

We need some help.

There's no way Patrick Doyle got in
and out of the medical examiner's office

unless he still has contacts
on the inside.

Which is why we can't trust anybody
n this unit or in the DA's office.

Whoever wants Doyle dead wouldn't
hesitate to use Dr. Isles as bait.

Maura's safe for now.
Nobody knows that she's related to Doyle

except for the four of us
and Doyle himself.

Let's find Colin's killer
before that changes.

Paddy Doyle has lots of enemies.

Given his history as an enforcer,
it's hard to say just how many.

But these guys are the top of the heap.
Mickey O'Donnell.

The Donegal family.

Danny "Boy" Flanagan.

Tommy O'Rourke.

All of them had family soldiers
murdered by Doyle.

So what are we waiting for?

Can't we drum up some reason
to question them?

You just don't get it. They're like
the CEOs of Irish crime families.

So? We could talk to them.

These guys make rabid pit bulls
look like chia pets!

What are we gonna do?

I'll see if there's anything else
I can pull off the encryption scanner.

Maybe there's a connection between
one of these guys and our hackers.

You and I should go back
through the car again.

And I'll go over the body again.

Maura, don't.
You've gone over it so many times.

I want to do it.

For Colin.

- She shouldn't be alone right now.
- Let her go, Jane.

Going back to work's the best thing
for her right now,

and the best thing we can do
to protect her is solve this.

He died here.
There's got to be something.

We have been over it and over it.

Did you see the dent here
on the front of the car?

I didn't have my new car for a week
before I got sideswiped.

That's Boston drivers for you.

Here it is.

Patrol officer notes it rolled
into the car in front of it.

Some sort of aftermarket kit.
Kid was smart.

No, Korsak, don't you get it?

What?
He got free road assistance. So?

It's activated any time
there's an impact.

Our vic's car rolled into another car
during the struggle.

Maybe as he was being murdered.

This is road assist.
How may I help you?

This is Detective Jane Rizzoli.

I need to know if you have any records
of a crash in this vehicle.

I'll check that for you.

Yes.
One recording.

Can you play that, please?

I'm sorry.
You'll need a court order for that.

It's good news. We'll get one.

Which ADA could expedite
a subpoena to road assist

without alerting
the entire police department?

Pat Hagen.
He's come through for me before.

We can trust him.

Hey, guys.
We got a problem.

I re-ran the computer leads
looking for a connection.

Someone hacked
into the medical examiner's database.

They got into Colin Doyle's file.

Are Maura's lab results
in that file?

Whoever was looking at Colin Doyle's file
knows Maura is his sister.

And Patrick Doyle's daughter.

I'm sorry.

But I couldn't go back to see you again.
No other way of bringing you to me.

What about a phone?

Let me take that off. Don't...

Don't touch me.

I assume you already know
you're in danger.

There's a lot I don't know.

Let's start with my birth mother.

Who is she? Is she alive?

She is.

But it's in both of our interests
to leave it at that.

- Listen to me. We don't have much time.
- You need to listen!

You don't get to terrorize me!

And kidnap me and interrogate me!

I want to know who my mother is!

You have her intensity
and intelligence.

And class.

She gave you up to keep you safe.
We both did.

I need to keep her safe, too.
She has a right to lead her own life.

But know she was heartbroken.

And never forgave me.

For giving me up.

For who I am.

What about Colin?

- Who was his mother?
- It's not the same thing.

She was someone...

I saw a few times.

- But you raised Colin.
- Is that what you think?

I gave you up and kept him?

No, he was raised by his mother.

She told him who his father
was right before she died.

FBI couldn't find me,
my enemies couldn't find me,

but my 15-year-old son did.

You've seen what he could do
with computers.

Smart enough to do anything,

yet not smart enough
to avoid the same path I took.

That has nothing to do
with his intelligence.

I'm guessing
you weren't much of a father.

I know what you've heard about me.

Most of it's true.

But you should know...

I've always kept an eye on you.

Take these off, please.

This is the fifth grade.

It's my high-school graduation.

I was at your college
and medical-school graduations, too.

Why?

You're my daughter.

I have a father.

So I can't be your daughter.

How can you do
the things that you do...

Just murder people on command?

I never hurt anyone
who didn't deserve to be hurt.

I don't understand
how you could live like that.

That's because you're different.

I did what I was born to do.

You did what you chose to do.

Maybe.

You're in a great deal of danger.

The police can't keep you safe.
You know that.

If I can get to you,
so can my enemies.

I can take care of myself.
I would like to go now.

Maura, I want to protect you,
but I can't do it without your help.

I don't know who killed your brother,
but I know they'll come after you next.

It's programmed with a number.
I'll always answer it.

I know you have people
close to you in Homicide.

I need you to tell me
who did this to Colin.

We don't know yet.

When you know,

as soon as you know.

So you can kill him.

So we can keep you alive
by sending a message.

My guy in Southie says
he's not hearing anything.

I've tried every CI I have.
No one's got anything on her.

We should be out there
looking for her!

We don't have a clue where to start.

It's a blocked ID.
Whatever you want, I can get it.

Are you okay?

Can you get to my apartment?

I'll be right there.
No, she's okay.

She's okay.

He had a gentleness
I wasn't expecting.

He's wanted for about,
a dozen not-so-gentle murders.

He's a charismatic killer.

It's not like you haven't seen
that animal before. He's dangerous.

I don't believe that.

He risked his life
to say goodbye to Colin.

Don't tell me that you're finally
letting emotion run that big brain.

I don't know who I am anymore.

Come on.

You're the same ridiculously smart,

amazing, goofy person
that you were before.

Knowing that he is the source
of the sperm doesn't change that.

Don't be so sure. Technically,
you did just say my father is a killer.

I said the sperm donor was a killer.

Patrick Doyle wants me to feed him
information about the case.

I bet he does.
That's why he's back. Revenge.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I'm supposed to call him...

with Colin's killer...

Once we we've discovered who it is.

Jane, he had photographs of me...

Throughout my life.

He wants to protect you.
Maybe we should just let him handle it.

I'm not helping him
kill another human being.

Even if it keeps you alive?

All right. Let's see what we got.

All right.
Hand me that collared j-trap.

Not that one. The metal one.
The metal one!

You've got everything mixed up
with everything else.

Nothing's mixed up, Frankie.

Everything's in the order
of the order of things.

What the hell does that even mean?
Here.

It means
there's a reason for everything.

Okay, Yoda.

You told me we were gonna be done
by the time the Celtics game started.

- You know how much those tickets cost?
- I told you to turn on the TV.

Thanks, pop.

You got to resolder the connection
on the hot side here.

- Why? I did it just like you said.
- No, you didn't sweat it right.

It's gonna leak
when the pressure builds up.

Come on, Frankie.
I taught you this when you were 10!

I told you we should have started
on the other side of the bar!

And you also told me you were
gonna be here on time, but you weren't!

All right!

- Get the valve! The valve!
- It's already secure!

No, not that one!
The cold-water line!

- What have I been teaching you?
- No, that's not it!

- The other one, Frankie!
- No, that's not doing it!

- Wait a minute. Here, take this.
- Of course it's not doing it!

The cold-water one.

- Hurry up.
- There!

Here.

Get the other one!
Look out!

Look.

Even if we arrest Colin's killer,

that'll just leave a path
for your father's enemies to find you.

So there you go.

There you go.
My father hurt a lot of people.

He's not your father.

My brother turned out just like him.

No proof that Colin killed anyone.
And he's not your brother!

So, what?
So he's the sperm donor's spawn?

- Exactly.
- And all he did was what?

Steal identities and life savings?

Killing people in other ways.

What does Colin Doyle
have to do with you?

Empirical data from several sources

provides strong converging
lines of evidence

that indicate that there is some degree
of genetic predisposition

for crime!

Maura, there is not
an evil bone in your body.

- It's in my DNA.
- So what?

You want a study that proves
you're not your father or your brother?

Yes.

Jane, open up.

Open up. It's Frankie.

I know it's the middle
of the night, but I'm...

What are you doing here?

Dad's lost his mind. He's driving me
crazy. I'm gonna kill him.

- Can't this wait?
- I got him a job at the dirty robber.

I thought I was doing him a favor. Then
he asked me for help, so I helped him.

I'd just finished soldering a final
section when the water main burst.

Then he tells me it's my fault!
And the water's coming down...

Frankie, stop it!

This is not the night
for crazy Rizzoli family drama.

Sure it is.

I could use the distraction,

and I happen to know a thing
or two about copper flux.

Do you, show-off?

So do I.

I'm the daughter of a plumber.

This will fit perfectly.

Maura, can you hand me
the torch, please?

Can I do it?

Really?
You know how to do this?

Of course.
I used one of these to sear Toro.

- Who's Toro?
- Toro's her pet miniature bull, dad.

- Pet bull? What are you talking about?
- No. Dad, come on. It's sushi.

Sushi?
Don't be a wise-ass, all right?

This wouldn't have happened
if you would have listened to me.

Sure, like the time that you set the
gas pressure too high in the kitchen

and the stove top
exploded during my birthday?

Like that, dad?

I remember.

It scared mom so bad
that she knocked the cake off the table.

- And the candle caught the rug on fire.
- And she was stomping everything out...

with her new white shoes.

Which she was wearing
after Labor Day.

I didn't know
you knew the Labor Day rule.

Come on.
Everybody knows the Labor Day rule.

Here.

Looks like that lead
from road assist panned out.

We've got a recording
from inside the car.

Okay, thanks.

Looks like we're gonna find out
who killed Colin Doyle.

This is Road Assist.

We've been alerted
to a frontal impact in your vehicle.

Is everything okay?

Fine.
Just tapped a car in front of me.

That was the killer's voice.

I loaded every recording we have
on our list of suspects.

FBI wire tapes, interrogation tapes,
courtroom testimony...

Tommy O'Rourke. Who's that?

A lot worse than Paddy Doyle.

I get it, Maura. I do.
But we're talking about your survival.

He said he wanted to send a message.

Those were his words?

That means even if we get Tommy O'Rourke,
someone else will be gunning for you.

Doyle is the only one
who can stop them all.

I know the consequences
if I don't do this, Jane. I do.

I've thought about it.

- I'll do it, then.
- Why is it any different?

This is not who I am.
It's not who you are.

Give it to me
and I'll take it to the crime lab.

Maybe they can track something.

It's Tommy O'Rourke.

Some would say
it's a fitting end for a killer.

That's me.

As a baby.

With Doyle.

Who tipped him off?

Not me. You said not to.

I think the message
is pretty clear, though.

"Don't mess with my family."

You do what you need to do
to protect family.

That's it, I guess.

Now I will turn on
the main water valve.

- You got this, pop.
- I hope so, sweetie.

Here goes nothing.

Very nice!

Very nice, pop. Very nice.
And you, you're a genius.

Yes. I am.

And a humble one, too.

What?

It only takes 150 IQ points
to be a genius.

What, so you're a dumb genius?

Are you still sorry
you didn't grow up with a sibling?

Yeah, I am.

Here, we'll cure you of that.

Aim at the face, preferably.

Nice. Very nice.

- I got him.
- Get him right in the face!
