Aidan 5 (2009) s01e10 Episode Script
A Date At The Docks
I try to ignore the 800lb gorilla staring at me from across the room.
Riley put in for her transfer this week and after the airport incident, she hasn't said two words to me.
I can't say I blame her.
The events of last month have me under a microscope with the Chief of Police.
Not that anyone's ever accused me of playing well with others.
Sorry to bother you, detective Aidan.
That's okay, Rachel, what's up? I can just leave this with you now and come back later if you need.
No, that's fine.
What do you have? I've finished going through the e-data from the sniper rifle.
No fingerprints, no hairs, no traceable serial number.
Yeah, but you did say there was DNA that was incomplete? Right, there isn't no identifiable markers.
The strand is a template without specific base pairs.
Wait, wait, let me get this straight.
Without any specific base pairs there's no way that our shooter can possibly be a clone.
I don't know what it is.
And he has no face.
And there's nothing on the gun.
No, nothing on the gun.
But I did find something interesting when I was looking at the shell casing.
The gunpowder residue had a salinization compound of 32 parts per thousand above normal levels.
What does that mean? I would say that these were made somewhere near the ocean.
Either that or a salt factory either one is plausible, I guess - This is good work.
- I'll keep looking through it.
Thank you.
- Hey there! - Hi.
- I hope I'm not late.
- No, not at all! - You look beautiful.
- Thank you.
What can I say? I clean up well.
You certainly do.
Shall we? The docks.
Coming here alone might not be the brightest idea I've ever had.
Especially with nothing to go on but some flimsy evidence and a hunch.
But when it's every thing you've got So, you looking to get a tattoo? Yeah I'm on spring break.
I'm detective James Aidan.
I'm looking for information about one of your customers.
Yeah, you'd remember this guy.
He had no face.
Call it a hunch.
Well, he had this tattoo on his forearm.
No.
Ok.
Put the gun down before I blow a 4 inch hole in the left side of your face.
And as for you Hey! You call me crazy but I think you'd remember inking a guy that has no face! When I get angry I shoot things.
And I get angry really quick.
So how's your memory now? Toots.
Yeah.
Also am I.
Now, where is he? I'll show you.
So I swore I would never play tennis with the Japanese ambassador again.
Oh, that's funny! You've had quite a life.
Well, you do see a lot of interesting things when you work in politics.
What about you? Me? You wouldn't be interested.
What are you talking about? You're a detective! "Force of good in a world of evil.
" Unless you have some dark secrets you want to tell me about.
No, not really.
You sure? We have all night.
We certainly do.
Hal graciously showed me where the apartment was.
Before scurrying away like a terrified rodent.
Now I just need to find a way in.
That'll work.
The place smells like rotting meat.
I'm wondering what it is about this place that makes my skin crawl when I find it.
Suddenly, my head goes light as something cold lands in my stomach.
It takes me a full second to realize what I'm looking at.
