Lab should have the prelims soon Did she have injuries consistant with that much blood ?
Not that I could tell and not according to the medical report So she comitted or witnessed a violent crime She could be faking the amnesia to not get caught I don't know.
I -just- I can't tell with this girl We also found a metro card and some coupons in her coat pocket If she is rich, she's not spending her money on food Ok, I'll call the MTA, I'll run the metro card and concentrate on her stops Hang on Johnson Right ok Yeah thanks Prelims just came in from the lab, the blood on the coat was B negative You now, I donwloaded a list of violent crimes reported that night on the same area, so, over here There was a man found murdered the next morning off 10th and Broadway And the blood type is B-negative 10th and Broadway, that's what ?
12 blocks from where she was found Yeah What do you think?
Go talk to her, see what you can find out But if this is a murder case, you gotta turn it over to NYPD ok Yeah Viv, where have you been, I called you twice, I left 2 messages Yeah Yeah I'm sorry.

Thank you It's yours.
You were seen wearing it the night you were picked up.
Do you remember that ?
Sorry, I don't recognize that ok What about..
This man?
Hey!
I need you to look at this picture, this man was stabbed seven times Why is that my problem ?
Cause the blood on your coat matches his blood type I told you that's not my coat!
his name is Ramon Salace, does that sound familiar to you?
Nothing seems familiar all right?
I don't know him, I never met him There is something you are not telling me Back off I don't know what happen to you, but you remember something, and if you don't tell me what it is I'm gonna have to assume that you are guilty of murder, do you understand that ?
They're just images, ok ?
I thought they were a nigthmare Describe them to me I'm in an alley There's a red door and a fire escape and this man he's assaulting me What does he want ?
I don't know But we're not alone Who else is with you ?
Let me get this straigth There were-There were bees Yes No, I don't know All I know is I had to defend us I had to I stabbed him What happened to the boy ?
He couldn't breeze he was suffocating Did you stab the man, or did you stab the boy ?
the man I stabbed him I killed him Ok, these are 360� shots of the location where Ramon Salace was killed Donna described an alley but this is clearly a parking lot She mentionned a red door and a fire escape These buildings have neither And she said she heard subway sound but I checked the MTA map the closest train crosses four blocks from there As far as the little boy goes, we got nothing Chances are we'll find him before we find a swam of bees in manhattan in December All right.
So what, she confesses to a murder she didn't comit ?
Maybe she prefers Rikers over City View What about the little Boy, she gave you anything else No Was the first time she talked about it Maybe he's a runaway.
i'll go and check with NYPD We could get lucky and he could be a witness or a victim Sam ?
Yeah ?
You're gonna have to call the D.A.
You've got a confession to an open murder case Let me talk to her first I think she's just confused It's not our problem The things you describe don't match his murder So what ?
So I don't think you killed him What the hell does that matter ?
It matters because unless we find out what really happened to you, the D.A.
will press charges You'll be declared incompetent, and you'll wind up back here locked up as a ward of the state Then your job's done Excuse me You wanted to help me find out who I am, right ?
What if I don't remember killing that guy but do remember killing someone So that's who I am What you got Mac ?
Ok.
Just going over the rest of the lab work from the coat, and there's more than just blood on it If you look in that collar area and the cuff, I found traces of titanium oxyde, castor oil, and D&C Yellow Number 10 That sounds delicious I just ran the coumpound through a product database and each appears as an element in over 300 products But the coumpound combines only in one product and that's theatrical makeup maybe she's a makeup artist or an actress Yeah, She swapped her metro card quite a few times at the astra place stop downtown, that area is full of small theaters See if any pop on violent crimes for that night All right, I'm on it Got one, at the Howard Theater, at Essex and Stanton That's where I'm going.
I' ll have Sam meet me there.

He was out of the house so much, you know, with the mill and then after that he...
went off to fight in the war Yeah It must have been tough not having him around I didn't really think to much about it, it was just the way that it was What the hell is this ?
We're taking you to the hospital Frank Oh no you're not, wait a..the hell you can't do that You need medical attention, ok You can't do that Yeah I can do it.

We're not here about that There was a woman with you, a Carmen Kane according to the report Yeah, Why ?
Is this her ?
Yeah, Is she Ok ?
I'm gonna need you to tell us exactly what happened that day, ok ?
Well, we were having some problems She was struggling in the second act so We had a little talk It's not just this rehearsal, Carmen, it's been weeks now Help me understand what's going on I told you I don't know You're not connecting to the material, you're holding back, it's just not But I'll find it Just give me a chance I don't think we can wait for you anymore Wait for me ?
Wh-wh-what are you talking about ?
Sacha Look at me!
Sacha ?
Oh my god, you're gonna fire me I'm sorry but I have no choice Don't do this please I'm gonna need the dress and the shoes back for wardrobe Why..?
no..I..
I'll slice her allright, ok Give me whatever you got now The watch too Sacha don't!
Leave him alone Oh my god, oh my God Sacha HELP!
SOMEBODY HELP Please So much for the Karat� class at the Y Next thing I know I'm in the hospital Bastard just missed my lung Could you tell me why you think she was having so much trouble with the play I have no clue really It's a fairly straight forward play A woman dealing with the death of her brother She was brilliant in the audition and ever since it's been downhill Do you have any ID or contact information on her ?
Carmen Kane, I got her registered with SAG and ASTRUB but nothing with the DMV, IRS or anyone who could help us Maybe it's a stage name It says here that she went to the Connecticut State School of drama So, huh Turns out that Ramon Salace was killed by a jealous husband All right long shot, maybe she confused the director's stabbing with Ramon Salace's stabbing But it still doesn't explain the little boy No, and it doesn't explain the bees Ah in the spring of '99, I' ve got one student by the name of Carmen Kuskowski No wonder she changed her name Yeah What ?
You know what, it..we'll be right down ok, bye!
What's up ?
Carmen's gone Grab Elena, I'll meet you there You know, when I was sixteen, my mother killed herself I didn't do anything to try to stop it This isn't the same thing isn't it ?
He's a sick man It's only gonna get worse A lot worse Maybe letting him go is not the wrong thing to do That's what you're advocating Im telling you the facts If you fight for this, it's not gonna be pretty And I'm not sure you're gonna get what you want out of it either I'm just not ready I know But I think he is Ill be around if you need me Thanks Hey, she's not here.
I checked her room, the day room, the bathrooms.
Security is checking the adjacent wards What the nurse said ?
She was confined to her room but they think she slipped out about an hour ago while they were passing out meds How ?
How the hell did she get out ?
Well apparently, there's a group of plumbers wroking on the bottom floor.
They think the door's been opend and closed all day long Why would she run ?
Because I made her think she killed somebody Ok thanks.
They're still searching the hospital and they notified the port authority Danny, check this out What ?
maybe the little boy form the stabbing scene could be a cousin, a friend, who knows you have two new messages Hey carmen, it's Shannon I heard about what happened, i thought maybe you want to talk If you do, just call me ok ?
Bye I'm worried, Car I dont know maybe I shouldn't freak but I'm worried about you anyway I just hope you're ok end of messages I love caller ID Shannon Kelso 718 area code Car and I are temp together downtown.
graveyard shift proofing contract for hotshots lawyer while they whine and dine about their jobs We hit it off How did you hear about what hapened at the Howard Theater ?
I went down there to see her And that's how you heard about the mugging I got worried.
She was already having a real rough time lately What do you mean ?
I think she was depressed Last time I saw her, I asked her why but I don't think I helped So we're going to a movie or what ?
Yeah Sorry, i was just...I wanted to donwload some new music cause everything I have just makes me want to cry I actually got to turn off the Gogos the other day The Gogos made you cry ?
That's very sad Shannon I thnik something's wrong with me because I feel like I'm turning into a basket case You got a lot going on You wanna do well on the play, that's a lot of pressure Yeah, but it's not just the play I can't figure it out, it's just everytime I try to focus on something, it's like this dark feelings come and I feel like I'm driving through a fog and at any moment I might crash You're not gonna crash Whatever happens, you'll be ok I'm not so sure about that How long has she been depressed ?
A couple of months So, since she started the play I think so When you mentionned she'd been in a hospital, I thought that was a good thing How about family, you ever meet them ?
Her parents live overseas, she talk to them every couple of weeks This her brother ?
She said it was, but she never really talked about him Carmen Abigail Kuskowski, born in Connecticut, 1979 Father's an enthymologist, mom is a teacher Brother Noah, bron in 82 died in 1989 Kuskowski Lsiten to this.
Noah Kuskowski, age 6, dies of anaphylactic choc after being attacked by bees in the presence of her sister He was stung 42 times Wait a second, she watched him suffocate ?
According to the Portland Daily form May of 89 All right, I know this is gonna be a stretch, ok, but I want you to bare with me for a second Her friend say she was depressed, right she's palying a character whose brother died so she's already vulnerable then she witnesses this stabbing That's great.
Where does the amnesia come in ?
That is exactly where the amensia comes in, the trauma from the stabbing pushes her over the edge She shuts down to block out the pain It makes sense Spade Are you sure ?
huh..ok Yeah, we're on our way Ok thanks That was the hospital.
They just finished checking the surveillance tapes, apparently, Carmen never left the building let's go One of the master key from the medical cabinet is missing We keep all controlled narcotics in there Here three of the maters keys The security is searching the lower floors Why don't we fan out up here I got this hall Carmen I wanted..
I wanted to swallow the whole cabinet but I couldn't break the lock Well, That's good Your name is Carmen Kuskowski You're 26 years old, you're from Connecticut You came here a year and a half ago because you wanted to be an actress And all of this started when you witness a stabbing This is a picture of you with your family She looks so happy she does It's like you're telling me someone else's story, it makes sense but just not for me We spoke to your mum She's flyning out here, she'll tell you everything you need to know Is it all supposed to come back to me ?
I hope it does I really do But at least, now you're not alone and you have someone who loves you coming to help yeah ok Com'on ok Thanks Sam No problem You're ok ?
You've been in there a long time Yeah I got this bladder infection It hurts my something else What do you care Why don't I put something on, Dizzie Gillepsy, or -Dad John Coltrane Dad, do you know who I am right now ?
No But you're a pain in the ass You're fine -Yeah Com'on Grab a sit on the couch, will you you're ok yeah Listen, I wanna talk to you for a minute Oh yeah, this is the part where you try to convince me to change my mind Look, I just want you to hear me out ok I want you to go to the hospital I want you to get treatment for your kidneys And I wanna be there for you Oh be there for me Look..
I'm the one who has to go through this How the hell can you be there for me ?
I'm gonna take a leave of absence, all right ?
I'll come here, I'll stay here, I'll take care of you You can't do that Look, I can and I want to But I need you to do something for me I need you to go to the hospital and get treatment for a couple of weeks And if after that, you...
That's not working for you, you don't want to do it I'll get out of your way, you can do whatever you want I just want you to give it a chance Why do you want to do all this for me ?

Lab should have the prelims soon Did she have injuries consistant with that much blood ?
Not that I could tell and not according to the medical report So she comitted or witnessed a violent crime She could be faking the amnesia to not get caught I don't know.
I -just- I can't tell with this girl We also found a metro card and some coupons in her coat pocket If she is rich, she's not spending her money on food Ok, I'll call the MTA, I'll run the metro card and concentrate on her stops Hang on Johnson Right ok Yeah thanks Prelims just came in from the lab, the blood on the coat was B negative You now, I donwloaded a list of violent crimes reported that night on the same area, so, over here There was a man found murdered the next morning off 10th and Broadway And the blood type is B-negative 10th and Broadway, that's what ?
12 blocks from where she was found Yeah What do you think?
Go talk to her, see what you can find out But if this is a murder case, you gotta turn it over to NYPD ok Yeah Viv, where have you been, I called you twice, I left 2 messages Yeah Yeah I'm sorry.

Thank you It's yours.
You were seen wearing it the night you were picked up.
Do you remember that ?
Sorry, I don't recognize that ok What about..
This man?
Hey!
I need you to look at this picture, this man was stabbed seven times Why is that my problem ?
Cause the blood on your coat matches his blood type I told you that's not my coat!
his name is Ramon Salace, does that sound familiar to you?
Nothing seems familiar all right?
I don't know him, I never met him There is something you are not telling me Back off I don't know what happen to you, but you remember something, and if you don't tell me what it is I'm gonna have to assume that you are guilty of murder, do you understand that ?
They're just images, ok ?
I thought they were a nigthmare Describe them to me I'm in an alley There's a red door and a fire escape and this man he's assaulting me What does he want ?
I don't know But we're not alone Who else is with you ?
Let me get this straigth There were-There were bees Yes No, I don't know All I know is I had to defend us I had to I stabbed him What happened to the boy ?
He couldn't breeze he was suffocating Did you stab the man, or did you stab the boy ?
the man I stabbed him I killed him Ok, these are 360� shots of the location where Ramon Salace was killed Donna described an alley but this is clearly a parking lot She mentionned a red door and a fire escape These buildings have neither And she said she heard subway sound but I checked the MTA map the closest train crosses four blocks from there As far as the little boy goes, we got nothing Chances are we'll find him before we find a swam of bees in manhattan in December All right.
So what, she confesses to a murder she didn't comit ?
Maybe she prefers Rikers over City View What about the little Boy, she gave you anything else No Was the first time she talked about it Maybe he's a runaway.
i'll go and check with NYPD We could get lucky and he could be a witness or a victim Sam ?
Yeah ?
You're gonna have to call the D.A.
You've got a confession to an open murder case Let me talk to her first I think she's just confused It's not our problem The things you describe don't match his murder So what ?
So I don't think you killed him What the hell does that matter ?
It matters because unless we find out what really happened to you, the D.A.
will press charges You'll be declared incompetent, and you'll wind up back here locked up as a ward of the state Then your job's done Excuse me You wanted to help me find out who I am, right ?
What if I don't remember killing that guy but do remember killing someone So that's who I am What you got Mac ?
Ok.
Just going over the rest of the lab work from the coat, and there's more than just blood on it If you look in that collar area and the cuff, I found traces of titanium oxyde, castor oil, and D&C Yellow Number 10 That sounds delicious I just ran the coumpound through a product database and each appears as an element in over 300 products But the coumpound combines only in one product and that's theatrical makeup maybe she's a makeup artist or an actress Yeah, She swapped her metro card quite a few times at the astra place stop downtown, that area is full of small theaters See if any pop on violent crimes for that night All right, I'm on it Got one, at the Howard Theater, at Essex and Stanton That's where I'm going.
I' ll have Sam meet me there.
Thank you you're welcome Good work Mac Thank you I can't keep anything down, I..

You're dehydrated, you need to drink something You look like crap Thanks You stayed here all night ?
Hum..

Yeah, It was the depression Everybody did what hey had to What about your old man, What was he like ?
I didn't konw much about him really.
He was out of the house so much, you know, with the mill and then after that he...
went off to fight in the war Yeah It must have been tough not having him around I didn't really think to much about it, it was just the way that it was What the hell is this ?
We're taking you to the hospital Frank Oh no you're not, wait a..the hell you can't do that You need medical attention, ok You can't do that Yeah I can do it.

Yeah Hi, I'm Special Agent Spade, This is Special Agent Delgado, We're with the FBI We have a police report that says that you were stabbed in the alley outside of here on monday That's right.
Did you find my watch ?
We're not here about that There was a woman with you, a Carmen Kane according to the report Yeah, Why ?
Is this her ?
Yeah, Is she Ok ?
I'm gonna need you to tell us exactly what happened that day, ok ?
Well, we were having some problems She was struggling in the second act so We had a little talk It's not just this rehearsal, Carmen, it's been weeks now Help me understand what's going on I told you I don't know You're not connecting to the material, you're holding back, it's just not But I'll find it Just give me a chance I don't think we can wait for you anymore Wait for me ?
Wh-wh-what are you talking about ?
Sacha Look at me!
Sacha ?
Oh my god, you're gonna fire me I'm sorry but I have no choice Don't do this please I'm gonna need the dress and the shoes back for wardrobe Why..?

I'll slice her allright, ok Give me whatever you got now The watch too Sacha don't!
Leave him alone Oh my god, oh my God Sacha HELP!
SOMEBODY HELP Please So much for the Karat� class at the Y Next thing I know I'm in the hospital Bastard just missed my lung Could you tell me why you think she was having so much trouble with the play I have no clue really It's a fairly straight forward play A woman dealing with the death of her brother She was brilliant in the audition and ever since it's been downhill Do you have any ID or contact information on her ?
Carmen Kane, I got her registered with SAG and ASTRUB but nothing with the DMV, IRS or anyone who could help us Maybe it's a stage name It says here that she went to the Connecticut State School of drama So, huh Turns out that Ramon Salace was killed by a jealous husband All right long shot, maybe she confused the director's stabbing with Ramon Salace's stabbing But it still doesn't explain the little boy No, and it doesn't explain the bees Ah in the spring of '99, I' ve got one student by the name of Carmen Kuskowski No wonder she changed her name Yeah What ?
You know what, it..we'll be right down ok, bye!
What's up ?
Carmen's gone Grab Elena, I'll meet you there You know, when I was sixteen, my mother killed herself I didn't do anything to try to stop it This isn't the same thing isn't it ?
He's a sick man It's only gonna get worse A lot worse Maybe letting him go is not the wrong thing to do That's what you're advocating Im telling you the facts If you fight for this, it's not gonna be pretty And I'm not sure you're gonna get what you want out of it either I'm just not ready I know But I think he is Ill be around if you need me Thanks Hey, she's not here.
I checked her room, the day room, the bathrooms.
Security is checking the adjacent wards What the nurse said ?
She was confined to her room but they think she slipped out about an hour ago while they were passing out meds How ?
How the hell did she get out ?
Well apparently, there's a group of plumbers wroking on the bottom floor.
They think the door's been opend and closed all day long Why would she run ?
Because I made her think she killed somebody Ok thanks.
They're still searching the hospital and they notified the port authority Danny, check this out What ?
maybe the little boy form the stabbing scene could be a cousin, a friend, who knows you have two new messages Hey carmen, it's Shannon I heard about what happened, i thought maybe you want to talk If you do, just call me ok ?
Bye I'm worried, Car I dont know maybe I shouldn't freak but I'm worried about you anyway I just hope you're ok end of messages I love caller ID Shannon Kelso 718 area code Car and I are temp together downtown.
graveyard shift proofing contract for hotshots lawyer while they whine and dine about their jobs We hit it off How did you hear about what hapened at the Howard Theater ?
I went down there to see her And that's how you heard about the mugging I got worried.
She was already having a real rough time lately What do you mean ?
I think she was depressed Last time I saw her, I asked her why but I don't think I helped So we're going to a movie or what ?
Yeah Sorry, i was just...I wanted to donwload some new music cause everything I have just makes me want to cry I actually got to turn off the Gogos the other day The Gogos made you cry ?
That's very sad Shannon I thnik something's wrong with me because I feel like I'm turning into a basket case You got a lot going on You wanna do well on the play, that's a lot of pressure Yeah, but it's not just the play I can't figure it out, it's just everytime I try to focus on something, it's like this dark feelings come and I feel like I'm driving through a fog and at any moment I might crash You're not gonna crash Whatever happens, you'll be ok I'm not so sure about that How long has she been depressed ?
A couple of months So, since she started the play I think so When you mentionned she'd been in a hospital, I thought that was a good thing How about family, you ever meet them ?
Her parents live overseas, she talk to them every couple of weeks This her brother ?
She said it was, but she never really talked about him Carmen Abigail Kuskowski, born in Connecticut, 1979 Father's an enthymologist, mom is a teacher Brother Noah, bron in 82 died in 1989 Kuskowski Lsiten to this.
Noah Kuskowski, age 6, dies of anaphylactic choc after being attacked by bees in the presence of her sister He was stung 42 times Wait a second, she watched him suffocate ?
According to the Portland Daily form May of 89 All right, I know this is gonna be a stretch, ok, but I want you to bare with me for a second Her friend say she was depressed, right she's palying a character whose brother died so she's already vulnerable then she witnesses this stabbing That's great.
Where does the amnesia come in ?
That is exactly where the amensia comes in, the trauma from the stabbing pushes her over the edge She shuts down to block out the pain It makes sense Spade Are you sure ?
huh..ok Yeah, we're on our way Ok thanks That was the hospital.
They just finished checking the surveillance tapes, apparently, Carmen never left the building let's go One of the master key from the medical cabinet is missing We keep all controlled narcotics in there Here three of the maters keys The security is searching the lower floors Why don't we fan out up here I got this hall Carmen I wanted..
I wanted to swallow the whole cabinet but I couldn't break the lock Well, That's good Your name is Carmen Kuskowski You're 26 years old, you're from Connecticut You came here a year and a half ago because you wanted to be an actress And all of this started when you witness a stabbing This is a picture of you with your family She looks so happy she does It's like you're telling me someone else's story, it makes sense but just not for me We spoke to your mum She's flyning out here, she'll tell you everything you need to know Is it all supposed to come back to me ?
I hope it does I really do But at least, now you're not alone and you have someone who loves you coming to help yeah ok Com'on ok Thanks Sam No problem You're ok ?
You've been in there a long time Yeah I got this bladder infection It hurts my something else What do you care Why don't I put something on, Dizzie Gillepsy, or -Dad John Coltrane Dad, do you know who I am right now ?
No But you're a pain in the ass You're fine -Yeah Com'on Grab a sit on the couch, will you you're ok yeah Listen, I wanna talk to you for a minute Oh yeah, this is the part where you try to convince me to change my mind Look, I just want you to hear me out ok I want you to go to the hospital I want you to get treatment for your kidneys And I wanna be there for you Oh be there for me Look..
I'm the one who has to go through this How the hell can you be there for me ?
I'm gonna take a leave of absence, all right ?
I'll come here, I'll stay here, I'll take care of you You can't do that Look, I can and I want to But I need you to do something for me I need you to go to the hospital and get treatment for a couple of weeks And if after that, you...
That's not working for you, you don't want to do it I'll get out of your way, you can do whatever you want I just want you to give it a chance Why do you want to do all this for me ?
Because your my father ok ok ?
get the doctor I'll be right back ok Hey Listen Dad, I just want Dad ?
You're ok ?
Dad ?
