1. In the criminal
justice system...Copy !req
2. sexually based offensesCopy !req
3. are considered
especially heinous.Copy !req
4. In New York City,
the dedicated detectives...Copy !req
5. who investigate
these vicious felonies...Copy !req
6. are members of an elite squadCopy !req
7. known as
the Special Victims Unit.Copy !req
8. These are their stories.Copy !req
9. Lisa, Ira, look a little bit
towards me. Okay?Copy !req
10. You know what Lisa, turn
a little bit more towards Ira.Copy !req
11. How much longer is this
going to take, Leo?Copy !req
12. Just a sec.Copy !req
13. I order pink headpieces for the
flower girls, they deliver white.Copy !req
14. How could they screw that up?
Try to relax.Copy !req
15. They would have looked better
if I'd made them myself.Copy !req
16. Okay. Everybody look towards
me and smile. Good.Copy !req
17. What the hell?
Help me.Copy !req
18. How is he?
Unconscious.Copy !req
19. Ten people saw the victim and no one
else come out that door. Any I.D.?Copy !req
20. Not yet. Who was here first?
Me.Copy !req
21. On foot, post around the
corner when I heard the call.Copy !req
22. He say anything?Copy !req
23. Something about getting it on
upstairs, before he conked out.Copy !req
24. They had one just like it last week,
a couple having sex, she whacks him...Copy !req
25. Yeah, we're gonna need
the 61 on that.Copy !req
26. Name's Thomas Dowd, 21,
address in Queens.Copy !req
27. I.D., credit cards still there,
no cash. Where'd you find it?Copy !req
28. Upstairs, the real party
was in his room.Copy !req
29. Coat, shirt, shoes, pants, underwear,
bed. Didn't waste any time with small talk.Copy !req
30. So, they are going at it.Copy !req
31. She grabs the ashtray,
whacks him over the head.Copy !req
32. He falls out of the bed.Copy !req
33. Probably got hit again,
crawls out for his life.Copy !req
34. I'd say Mr. Dowd picked
himself up a pro, got rolled.Copy !req
35. Find any fluids?
We were just about to look.Copy !req
36. Ready, Charlie?
Yeah.Copy !req
37. Show time.Copy !req
38. Man, it's everywhere.Copy !req
39. Don't people have sex
in bed anymore?Copy !req
40. Apparently our victim did.
Check the sheets.Copy !req
41. The earth moved.
Then he saw stars.Copy !req
42. We canvassed the floor. These
folks may have heard something.Copy !req
43. Hi, I'm Detective Benson. This
is my partner, Detective Stabler.Copy !req
44. Joe and Amanda Woodward
from Altoona, Pennsylvania.Copy !req
45. Our friends warned us
to be careful here.Copy !req
46. We came out of the elevator...Copy !req
47. on our way to our room, when
we heard someone screaming.Copy !req
48. Yeah, it sounded like a woman.
What time?Copy !req
49. We went to the matinee and then
had dinner, so it had to be 8:30.Copy !req
50. You have any idea where
the screams came from?Copy !req
51. We couldn't tell from where
we were. We called security.Copy !req
52. Yeah, they came right away,
but it stopped.Copy !req
53. They said there was...
It was someone's TV set.Copy !req
54. You see anybody coming or going?
No. Nobody. The hallway was empty.Copy !req
55. This kind of thing happen
a lot around here?Copy !req
56. City's never been safer.
Enjoy the rest of your stay.Copy !req
57. Okay. Thank you.Copy !req
58. The room was in
Mr. Dowd's name.Copy !req
59. Were you here when
Mr. Dowd checked in?Copy !req
60. He registered
just before 8:00.Copy !req
61. Yes, I would have been here.
Was he alone?Copy !req
62. I don't personally
check guests in.Copy !req
63. You are welcome to ask
the clerk who registered him.Copy !req
64. We'll need to talk to all
the clerks who were on duty...Copy !req
65. and get copies
of your security tapes.Copy !req
66. We'll also need the names
of your guests.Copy !req
67. On that floor?
All the guests.Copy !req
68. Who's adjacent to Mr. Dowd?Copy !req
69. Both rooms were vacant.Copy !req
70. It's the off-season.Copy !req
71. What's all this?
Asbestos testing.Copy !req
72. It's in every building
constructed before 1970.Copy !req
73. I am not staying in here with all those
tiny cancer-causing particles flying around.Copy !req
74. Stop worrying.
As an African-American...Copy !req
75. you're statistically
far more likely to die...Copy !req
76. of diabetes, high blood
pressure or heart disease.Copy !req
77. Or a bullet.
All right, where are we?Copy !req
78. Checking the guest list
and waiting on the DNA.Copy !req
79. Turns out that Thomas Dowd
was victim number two.Copy !req
80. Victim number one was
a businessman from St. Louis.Copy !req
81. Picked up a woman named Samantha
last week at the Midtown Arms.Copy !req
82. They go up to his room,
they have sex...Copy !req
83. after which she buries a
telephone receiver into his head.Copy !req
84. Cash was stolen, wallet and I.D.
left behind. We talk to this guy?Copy !req
85. Yeah. He hung up on me. He said
that his wife was in the next room.Copy !req
86. So, we got a pro who likes
to get violent.Copy !req
87. Maybe. One thing
stood out on the 61.Copy !req
88. Here it is. "Victim says assailant
wanted him to get rough with her...Copy !req
89. "he got nervous.Copy !req
90. "He tried to leave. "
That's when she crowned him.Copy !req
91. So, she's leaving a trail of
bloody men at high-end hotels.Copy !req
92. This case has vice
written all over it.Copy !req
93. Rule out a bona fide sex crime, I
will hand the file to them myself.Copy !req
94. Great. Thank you.Copy !req
95. Let's see what Thomas Dowd
says. He woke up an hour ago.Copy !req
96. On his way home, gets mugged
and beaten in the streets.Copy !req
97. Ma, please.Copy !req
98. Right on 5th avenue.
Nobody's safe.Copy !req
99. Mrs. Dowd, we just need a
few minutes alone with Tommy.Copy !req
100. I'll go get a cup of tea.
Thank you.Copy !req
101. You told your Mom
you were mugged.Copy !req
102. You think I want her to know I was
in a hotel room with some woman?Copy !req
103. Where did you pick up
your date?Copy !req
104. In the bar at the Decameron.Copy !req
105. My buddy Frank was...Copy !req
106. supposed to meet me there for
a few beers and the Knick game.Copy !req
107. Why the Decameron?
Frank suggested it.Copy !req
108. Doesn't like the smoke
in the sports bars.Copy !req
109. Didn't matter. He never
showed. But you stayed?Copy !req
110. I didn't want to miss tip-off.Copy !req
111. I am sitting there, she comes
over to me. Real nice-looking.Copy !req
112. Name?
Jill.Copy !req
113. Jill. And...Copy !req
114. how much did Jill want?
It wasn't like that.Copy !req
115. We start talking.
We hit it off.Copy !req
116. She suggests we go upstairs. So I
go to the front desk and register.Copy !req
117. And? Then what?Copy !req
118. She says she's a little shy.Copy !req
119. I should give her the key, wait
five minutes and follow her up.Copy !req
120. I get up there, open the door,
she's waiting in bed for me.Copy !req
121. Yeah, we saw your trail of clothes.
You two didn't waste much time.Copy !req
122. I get in there
and she grabs me.Copy !req
123. Pulls me on top of her and we go
at it like there's no tomorrow.Copy !req
124. Next thing I know, some guy in a
tuxedo is standing over me in the lobby.Copy !req
125. Can you describe Jill?Copy !req
126. Blonde...Copy !req
127. buff...Copy !req
128. looked like
she was in her thirties.Copy !req
129. We will have a computer sketch artist
come on down. Did she say anything to you?Copy !req
130. She wanted me
to fight her for it.Copy !req
131. Said she liked it rough.
So I went along.Copy !req
132. Did she at any time
tell you to stop it?Copy !req
133. She told me to slap her
harder, make it hurt.Copy !req
134. I said that's not my scene,
but...Copy !req
135. she wouldn't take no
for an answer.Copy !req
136. Maybe Jill has second thoughts
when guys fight too hard.Copy !req
137. She picked both men up at hotel bars.
Let's see if the bartenders remember her.Copy !req
138. Yeah, he was here.Copy !req
139. Nursed the same drink for an
hour and forgot to leave a tip.Copy !req
140. Anyone here with him?
Some blonde.Copy !req
141. Didn't hang out long, though.
How long?Copy !req
142. Five minutes, tops. He hands
her a room key. She leaves.Copy !req
143. He heads out a few minutes later.
That's not a lot of get-to-know-you time.Copy !req
144. He ever step away from the bar
before that? If he did, I missed it.Copy !req
145. What time did they hook up?Copy !req
146. 8:30.Copy !req
147. End of the first quarter
of the Knicks game.Copy !req
148. You must know some of the local
businesswomen who hang out here.Copy !req
149. She wasn't one of them.
But I've seen him here before.Copy !req
150. Alone?
Always with a different woman.Copy !req
151. Good looking young guy
like him, I don't get it.Copy !req
152. Get what?Copy !req
153. Some of his dates are
old enough to be his mother.Copy !req
154. Yeah.Copy !req
155. What's up, Doc?
I am not taking any chances.Copy !req
156. They haven't done
anything yet.Copy !req
157. This is out of control.
Where's my desk?Copy !req
158. I'm having the desks moved out
into the hallway.Copy !req
159. All right, everybody upstairs.
Grab your case files.Copy !req
160. Olivia, what've you got?Copy !req
161. Tommy Dowd lied to us.Copy !req
162. He already had the hotel room
when he met our Jill.Copy !req
163. Bartender says Tommy was hanging
with women who had 20 years on him.Copy !req
164. So, either he's got an Oedipus
complex or he's the pro.Copy !req
165. You should run him through the
computer before you go back to see him.Copy !req
166. One arrest, prostitution.Copy !req
167. What really happened
last night?Copy !req
168. Cut out the games, Tommy...Copy !req
169. and start separating out fact
from fiction for us, okay?Copy !req
170. Client offered me $1,000
to sleep with her.Copy !req
171. How'd she find you?Copy !req
172. I work for an escort service.Copy !req
173. It's legitimate.
I needed the money.Copy !req
174. What for?
For my mother.Copy !req
175. Come on. You're gonna have to
do better than that.Copy !req
176. It's the truth.Copy !req
177. My father died last year.Copy !req
178. I go to City University.Copy !req
179. I had to drop out to help Mom run our
dry-cleaning store out in Elmhurst.Copy !req
180. Dad liked to play the ponies.Copy !req
181. We didn't know how much
until after he was gone.Copy !req
182. So he left you in debt?Copy !req
183. We lost the store,
almost lost the house.Copy !req
184. And you moonlight as a pro.
Escort. Walker.Copy !req
185. Rent-a-date
for the over-50 set.Copy !req
186. Take them out and make sure
they don't fall asleep.Copy !req
187. Lot's of guys do it in college.
They need the money, too?Copy !req
188. $600 an hour, minimum
three-and-a-half-hour date...Copy !req
189. we take home 40%.Copy !req
190. You are almost guaranteed
$1,000 a night.Copy !req
191. Any of them get arrested
for prostitution?Copy !req
192. Client offers me
an extra $500 cash...Copy !req
193. to spend the night,
how do I know she's a cop?Copy !req
194. Didn't stop you
from doing it again.Copy !req
195. Last night?
Yeah.Copy !req
196. Jill offered me
an extra $1,000.Copy !req
197. Look, none of this changes
what happened to me.Copy !req
198. It does if you forced Jill
to have sex.Copy !req
199. I did what she wanted.
I didn't rape her.Copy !req
200. I don't know what set her off.Copy !req
201. Tommy's one of my most requested
escorts. Witty, charming, down-to-earth.Copy !req
202. The ladies love him because
he's not just arm candy.Copy !req
203. You ever have complaints about him? He
wouldn't be working here if there were.Copy !req
204. Do you employ a lot
of college kids like Tommy?Copy !req
205. It's a win-win.Copy !req
206. I get the handsome, nice
young men my clients want...Copy !req
207. And they get 40%?Copy !req
208. My clients are among the wealthiest
and most influential women in New York.Copy !req
209. Widows or women whose
husbands travel for business...Copy !req
210. who don't want
to be seen out alone.Copy !req
211. My escorts accompany them to the
theater, opera, museums, parties.Copy !req
212. Good deal
for a college student.Copy !req
213. They are exposed to culture and
class while providing companionship.Copy !req
214. What about sexual favors?
Do your escorts provide that?Copy !req
215. I find out about it, I fire
the escort and drop the client.Copy !req
216. Reputation is everything
in my business.Copy !req
217. You are not saying Tommy...Copy !req
218. We are not implying anything, it's
just part of our investigation.Copy !req
219. Here it is. Hotel Decameron,
8:00, wedding escort.Copy !req
220. And the client's name?
Jill Lessard. A first-timer.Copy !req
221. Okay, thank you.Copy !req
222. Yeah, thanks.Copy !req
223. That was the hotel. No one named
Lessard on the wedding invitation list.Copy !req
224. Perp could've got that off the
list of events at the lobby.Copy !req
225. Yeah, I am still here.
What about security tapes?Copy !req
226. Midtown Arms recycles
after one week.Copy !req
227. The camera on the fifth floor
of the Decameron wasn't working.Copy !req
228. Yeah. All right.Copy !req
229. Jill Lessard was 1,000 miles
away from here two nights ago.Copy !req
230. Where?
Kewanee, Illinois.Copy !req
231. Hog capital of the world.Copy !req
232. Somebody stole
her credit card number...Copy !req
233. then used it to book
the escort at Man About Town.Copy !req
234. So our perp's racked up one
identity theft and two assaults.Copy !req
235. Make that three.Copy !req
236. What have we got?Copy !req
237. Unidentified male,
looks mid-twenties...Copy !req
238. was wearing a condom
when hotel security found him.Copy !req
239. The perp picked the whole
wallet this time. Deja vu.Copy !req
240. Right down to the victim.
Another pretty boy.Copy !req
241. You find anything else?Copy !req
242. Tonight's weapon of choice.Copy !req
243. Just had to reach over
to the night stand.Copy !req
244. She do as much damage to the
victim? He's in dreamland.Copy !req
245. EMS rushed him out of here.
They said it's likely he'll die.Copy !req
246. I will bet my vacation we've
got another escort.Copy !req
247. We ran his prints. Name is Victor
Coe, 26, address on Riverside Drive.Copy !req
248. Three arrests
for prostitution.Copy !req
249. We showed a sketch of Jill to
the bartender at the Beaumont.Copy !req
250. He I.D.'d her
as Coe's companion.Copy !req
251. Bartender also saw
the foreplay.Copy !req
252. He passes her the key, then waits
five minutes before he follows her up.Copy !req
253. Coe still likely to die?Copy !req
254. He's been upgraded to critical,
but he can go either way.Copy !req
255. The businessman she picked up from St.
Louis wouldn't play into her fantasies.Copy !req
256. So, she buys herself some escorts
thinking the customer is always right.Copy !req
257. They will do
whatever she wants.Copy !req
258. Perp got Dowd from Man About Town.
Bet she got Coe from there, too.Copy !req
259. Pay Leslie Desantis
another visit.Copy !req
260. We got a pattern here.
Check with NCIC, VICAP.Copy !req
261. Maybe Jill played her fantasy
out in some other city...Copy !req
262. before she took her act
on the road.Copy !req
263. Coe have any family here? A
brother, a high-powered art dealer.Copy !req
264. He owns the apartment on
Riverside Drive where Victor lives.Copy !req
265. Persuade him to let you
take a look around.Copy !req
266. When did you last see Victor?Copy !req
267. It's been months.
We were both too busy.Copy !req
268. Now he's in some hospital bed on a bubble.
Nice place. What does your brother do?Copy !req
269. He's a starving actor.
How's he afford this?Copy !req
270. I enable him.Copy !req
271. Victor pays a little rent
when he can.Copy !req
272. It's hard to do on his income
off those off-off Broadway plays.Copy !req
273. Wish I had a brother like you.Copy !req
274. These chairs are Alvar Aalto,
1929. I admire your taste.Copy !req
275. I didn't buy any of this.Copy !req
276. Victor had all hand-me-down
furniture the last time I was here.Copy !req
277. Mr. Coe, were you told
how your brother was attacked?Copy !req
278. No. Does it matter?
It might.Copy !req
279. Victor was arrested several
times for prostitution.Copy !req
280. My God.Copy !req
281. We think whoever did this
to him was a client.Copy !req
282. And there is a way you can help us. How?Copy !req
283. Let us take a look around.Copy !req
284. There could be something that lets us
know who Victor met up with last night.Copy !req
285. Where do you want to start?Copy !req
286. I fired Victor three months ago.
Why are you asking about him?Copy !req
287. Because he was beaten
the same way Tommy Dowd was...Copy !req
288. only Victor may not make it.Copy !req
289. I screen my clients.
Apparently Victor didn't.Copy !req
290. Your concern is overwhelming.Copy !req
291. I treated him well. He thanked me
by taking money out of my pocket.Copy !req
292. Is that why you fired him?Copy !req
293. Client complained when Victor
offered her his services...Copy !req
294. the whole night
for $1,000 dollars.Copy !req
295. I boot him,
he steals my clients.Copy !req
296. So, I guess you wouldn't be too
sorry if Victor went out of business.Copy !req
297. I would delight in it.
But I wouldn't hurt him.Copy !req
298. Any of your rivals
out to hurt you?Copy !req
299. This is a competitive business,
Detective. Not cutthroat.Copy !req
300. The list from Victor Coe's Palm Pilot is
a who's who of the city's finest ladies.Copy !req
301. Anybody stand out?Copy !req
302. One whose husband's office
number is also tucked inside.Copy !req
303. Claudia Baines Marshall.Copy !req
304. Wife of Merchants Commerce
Bank chairman, Darien Marshall.Copy !req
305. Isn't he up
for some ambassadorship?Copy !req
306. If Coe was servicing the most
prominent women in town...Copy !req
307. then Mrs. Marshall's number makes
sense, but Mr. Marshall's doesn't.Copy !req
308. Unless Coe attached a price to
Mrs. Marshall's indiscretion.Copy !req
309. Blackmail.Copy !req
310. Coe's bank statement
from the apartment.Copy !req
311. Someone wired $75,000 into his
checking account six months ago.Copy !req
312. One day later, Coe cuts Dowd
a check for $5,000.Copy !req
313. So Dowd could be
in on this, too.Copy !req
314. You two, talk to Mrs. Marshall.
You two, go talk to Mr. Marshall.Copy !req
315. And I am sure I don't have
to tell you to tread lightly.Copy !req
316. These people probably have their own
dresser drawer in the Lincoln bedroom.Copy !req
317. Can I have Inez
bring you something?Copy !req
318. No, thank you.Copy !req
319. Then how can I help you, detectives?
Victor Coe. Do you know him?Copy !req
320. And if I told you I didn't?Copy !req
321. Mister Coe was found nearly beaten
to death. Your number in his Palm top.Copy !req
322. Is Victor okay?
He's hanging on.Copy !req
323. Why come to me?Copy !req
324. We need to know the extent of
your relationship with Victor.Copy !req
325. Is this necessary?Copy !req
326. If word gets out...Copy !req
327. It doesn't have to
leave the room.Copy !req
328. I've spent 30 years
of my life...Copy !req
329. reassuring my husband he was
capable of becoming the man he is.Copy !req
330. I gave him children,
reared them...Copy !req
331. stood by his side through
things you can't imagine.Copy !req
332. All I asked in return was his loyalty.
It was the one thing he wouldn't give me.Copy !req
333. Is that why you went
to Victor?Copy !req
334. When I found out
my husband was...Copy !req
335. reassuring himself with 20-somethings
who stroke him like a rabbit's foot...Copy !req
336. I decided I was entitled
to my own diversions.Copy !req
337. Wouldn't your husband have
been angry if he'd found out?Copy !req
338. No.Copy !req
339. Darien knows about Victor.Copy !req
340. Our marriage has long since disintegrated
from one of love into one of convenience.Copy !req
341. He needs me, and I need him.Copy !req
342. How did you meet Victor?Copy !req
343. Through the escort service...Copy !req
344. after they sent several men
who were not up to par.Copy !req
345. Tommy Dowd one of them?Copy !req
346. Tommy was a child.Copy !req
347. A nice young man,
but not terribly adventurous.Copy !req
348. Your husband's office number
is also in Victor's computer.Copy !req
349. It is?
Any idea why?Copy !req
350. You'll have to ask him.Copy !req
351. I have no idea how my number
got into his computer.Copy !req
352. Did you meet Mr. Coe?Copy !req
353. I haven't had the pleasure.Copy !req
354. Talk to my wife.Copy !req
355. So, you're aware
of their relationship?Copy !req
356. It must upset you.Copy !req
357. Recessions upset me. The collapse
of the dot-com economy upsets me.Copy !req
358. My wife's dalliances do not.Copy !req
359. You're not concerned that public
knowledge of your wife's trysts...Copy !req
360. could derail
your diplomatic ambitions?Copy !req
361. Claudia wants this
ambassadorship as much as I do.Copy !req
362. I have always been able to
count on her to be discreet.Copy !req
363. Did you pay Victor Coe so you
could count on his discretion?Copy !req
364. Excuse me?Copy !req
365. Someone transferred $75,000
into his account.Copy !req
366. After we get the subpoena...Copy !req
367. it will only be a few hours
before we know where it came from.Copy !req
368. Mr. Coe made me an offer
I couldn't refuse.Copy !req
369. What's your guarantee
he sticks to it?Copy !req
370. A notarized
confidentiality agreement.Copy !req
371. He reveals anything in our
transaction or the details therein...Copy !req
372. he has to return the money.Copy !req
373. But if that happens, the damage
to your reputation's already done.Copy !req
374. Maybe you wanted
a more permanent agreement.Copy !req
375. Gentlemen, if I wanted
Victor Coe dead...Copy !req
376. he'd be in his grave by now.Copy !req
377. Everything's a transaction to
that guy, including his marriage.Copy !req
378. $75,000 is pocket change.
Marshall spends at least that on...Copy !req
379. lobbyists greasing the congressional
wheels for his confirmation hearings.Copy !req
380. Is there anything
you're not suspicious about?Copy !req
381. No. Including
what's in this hot dog.Copy !req
382. Tutuola.Copy !req
383. I'm on it, Captain.Copy !req
384. We got to pick up Tommy Dowd.
What'd he do now?Copy !req
385. Paid off a $43,000 dollar debt
six months ago.Copy !req
386. Maybe I should become an
escort. Don't quit your day job.Copy !req
387. $26,000 dollars
for your mother's mortgage...Copy !req
388. and another $17,000
for your two credit cards.Copy !req
389. We have the $5,000 check
Victor Coe wrote you.Copy !req
390. What are you talking about?Copy !req
391. Wow. That whack on the head
must have given you amnesia.Copy !req
392. You and Victor blackmailed
Darien Marshall, didn't you?Copy !req
393. Blackmail?Copy !req
394. You both slept with Marshall's
wife. I never slept with her.Copy !req
395. I escorted her twice. She
asked Leslie to replace me.Copy !req
396. So you figured you could make a
quick buck at Marshall's expense?Copy !req
397. You thought it up, Victor carried
it out. Is that how it went?Copy !req
398. That $5,000?Copy !req
399. Victor owed it to me for
bailing him out a few times...Copy !req
400. when he couldn't take
an assignment.Copy !req
401. Fine. Where'd you get
the rest?Copy !req
402. My boss loaned it to me.Copy !req
403. Leslie Desantis?
Yeah.Copy !req
404. With interest?Copy !req
405. I perform personal
services for her. Sex?Copy !req
406. I was desperate.Copy !req
407. My mother was about to lose the house. I
told Leslie and she offered me the money.Copy !req
408. Swore I'd pay back every cent.Copy !req
409. She didn't tell me I had to
sleep with her until afterwards.Copy !req
410. I did for a while, until
Leslie wanted me all the time.Copy !req
411. So, what did you do?Copy !req
412. We had a huge fight.Copy !req
413. I say I am going to quit she says
she's going to call in my loan.Copy !req
414. I had to stay.Copy !req
415. So, how long ago was this?Copy !req
416. The night before she sent
me out with Miss Fantasy.Copy !req
417. Tommy dumps Leslie, Victor steals from
her. They both end up in the hospital.Copy !req
418. She teaching them a lesson?
Could be.Copy !req
419. Both were hit on the back of
the head. Faces weren't touched.Copy !req
420. Don't damage
that merchandise, baby.Copy !req
421. That still doesn't explain our
businessman from St. Louis.Copy !req
422. So, maybe it's not the same
perp. Maybe I can help you.Copy !req
423. How? Vice just busted a
pro matching the sketch.Copy !req
424. Clubbed her john
with a baseball bat.Copy !req
425. Bring her in for a lineup.Copy !req
426. Do you recognize
any of these women?Copy !req
427. Number three.
From where?Copy !req
428. She's a regular. I've seen
her with a couple of guys.Copy !req
429. Did you see her with Victor
Coe? Come on, counselor.Copy !req
430. Thanks for coming in.Copy !req
431. Mr. Dowd, do you recognize
any of these women?Copy !req
432. She's not there.Copy !req
433. You barely looked.Copy !req
434. He said she's not there,
Captain. We heard him.Copy !req
435. Are you sure?
Yeah. I'm sure.Copy !req
436. Tommy, wait for us outside.Copy !req
437. Are we through here?
Here, yes.Copy !req
438. But Vice has her
for assault one.Copy !req
439. That was a bust.
Which leaves us right back...Copy !req
440. where we started.
Maybe not.Copy !req
441. Lab just called. Says they
got something to show us.Copy !req
442. The semen on the sheets from the Hotel
Decameron came back as two distinct types.Copy !req
443. She had sex with two men. Because
it's a hotel, we can't be certain.Copy !req
444. But check this out. Look at the
fingerprint pattern on the ashtray.Copy !req
445. The perp's a lefty.Copy !req
446. All the wounds were on the
left side of the victim's head.Copy !req
447. Now, I reach with my left hand for
the ashtray, I am holding it like this.Copy !req
448. Pattern of the wounds only fit the edge
of the ashtray next to the heel of my hand.Copy !req
449. That's impossible.
Exactly.Copy !req
450. It's even more pronounced with the
telephone. The attacker grabbed it with...Copy !req
451. the thumb on top of the receiver,
fingers underneath the cradle, like this.Copy !req
452. There's no way that she could do
that from her position underneath...Copy !req
453. and cause that wound pattern on
the left side of Victor's head.Copy !req
454. Meaning somebody else
was in both rooms.Copy !req
455. Prints on the phone and
the ashtray are identical.Copy !req
456. So she had a partner
in her little game.Copy !req
457. Judging from the second
semen stain, yes.Copy !req
458. So, he saves his damsel in distress from
her would-be rapist and then they have sex?Copy !req
459. While the victim lays
bleeding on the floor.Copy !req
460. What kind of fantasy is that?Copy !req
461. CSU found prints
in the closets...Copy !req
462. of both hotel rooms,
and the prints match up...Copy !req
463. with the ashtray
and the phone.Copy !req
464. They also found semen
in both of the closets.Copy !req
465. The DNA is identical to one of the two
stains found on each of the hotel beds.Copy !req
466. Whoever Jack and Jill are,
they're not in the system.Copy !req
467. So Jack warms up for the big event as
he watches Jill and the victim get it on.Copy !req
468. Everybody has fantasies.
Most of them don't run amok.Copy !req
469. You know, guy wants to
sleep with Miss October...Copy !req
470. his wife wants
to spend 45 minutes...Copy !req
471. with the buff construction worker
she sees outside her office window.Copy !req
472. Remember that case we worked last
year? The guy had a baby fetish...Copy !req
473. he wore diapers
underneath his clothes.Copy !req
474. We go to his place. Second
bedroom is set up as a nursery.Copy !req
475. Custom-built crib for four.
That's twisted.Copy !req
476. If we're done with our trip down memory
lane, can you tell me what else we have?Copy !req
477. We canvassed the bellmen
and the doormen.Copy !req
478. Nobody remembers a woman
matching the sketch.Copy !req
479. We don't know what
her partner looks like.Copy !req
480. Tommy Dowd and Victor Coe
got pretty bloodied.Copy !req
481. There's no way the perps
didn't get some on themselves.Copy !req
482. But the bathrooms
weren't used.Copy !req
483. Meaning they had their own
room to clean up and lay low.Copy !req
484. Anything on the guest lists?
Still cross-checking.Copy !req
485. I'll call Skoda.Copy !req
486. If he can tell us about
this couple's pathology...Copy !req
487. maybe we can figure out
who they are.Copy !req
488. Ever heard the phrase
'Folie a deux'?Copy !req
489. Deux is two.
Folie is madness.Copy !req
490. Shared madness. I tell you I see
little green men everywhere...Copy !req
491. you love me so much,
you start seeing them, too.Copy !req
492. That's what this is?Copy !req
493. It's like that, except with the
sexual perversion thrown in...Copy !req
494. we'd call it
a shared psychotic disorder.Copy !req
495. So, I bring you into my sexual
fantasy, and you make it your own.Copy !req
496. She gets him
to enter her delusion.Copy !req
497. She pretends to be assaulted, he gets
to play the knight in shining armor.Copy !req
498. How does something like this get
started? Probably by accident.Copy !req
499. Couple's making love, she fights
him a little bit. It excites her.Copy !req
500. He fights her back,
it excites her even more.Copy !req
501. Turns out to be the best sex they
ever had. Until the fantasy wears thin.Copy !req
502. And then they get somebody
else to play the part.Copy !req
503. And the husband gets to be the
hero. Maybe they start with a friend.Copy !req
504. Or they pick up a businessman
from St. Louis...Copy !req
505. only he doesn't want
to play along.Copy !req
506. So, then they turn to male escorts.
And when the fantasy evolves?Copy !req
507. It becomes such a part of their sexual
ritual, it's the only way they can get aroused.Copy !req
508. Their last victim is in a coma.
So, it progresses to violence.Copy !req
509. As they sink deeper into the
delusion, the madness escalates.Copy !req
510. They become addicts, they
need a stronger fix more often.Copy !req
511. Listen, we are going to have
to cut this short.Copy !req
512. What's up?Copy !req
513. Maid at the Broadway Hotel found
a body in another room. Same M. O...Copy !req
514. except this one's dead.Copy !req
515. This is getting old.Copy !req
516. Gregory Moore, 21, address in
Peekskill. M.E.'s on the way.Copy !req
517. Murder weapon?
Crystal vase.Copy !req
518. Hit him so hard,
there's brain matter on it.Copy !req
519. Somebody must have heard that.Copy !req
520. See the pointy edges?Copy !req
521. Perp came down hard enough on the victim
with that, one blow would shut him up.Copy !req
522. I guess they wanted to make sure
that they got it right this time.Copy !req
523. Lab confirms the DNA and prints
match the other two scenes.Copy !req
524. We know what escort service
Moore worked for?Copy !req
525. He didn't. Moore had no
record with us, either.Copy !req
526. But his parents say he was
a student at City University.Copy !req
527. That's where Tommy Dowd went
before he dropped out.Copy !req
528. Half the city goes there. I
don't believe in coincidences.Copy !req
529. Pick Tommy up.Copy !req
530. It's too bad Tommy got
himself involved in all this.Copy !req
531. He had a choice. He knew
what he was doing was wrong.Copy !req
532. I don't know if he wanted to.Copy !req
533. It seems like he was just trying
to help his mom save their house.Copy !req
534. There are other ways to
make money than prostitution.Copy !req
535. What's he going to do, flip burgers
in a fast food joint for minimum wage?Copy !req
536. Come on, Elliot, if peddling your
body is okay, what about selling coke?Copy !req
537. It's not the same thing.
What do you mean?Copy !req
538. All I am saying is that we
shouldn't be worrying about...Copy !req
539. who's jumping into the sack
with who, for how much.Copy !req
540. The truth is, no matter how we feel about
it, if it's illegal, it is our business.Copy !req
541. Leslie called
yesterday afternoon.Copy !req
542. Said she needed me right away.Copy !req
543. Last minute booking.Copy !req
544. I had to meet with lawyers about
the back taxes we owe on the store.Copy !req
545. So I called Greg...Copy !req
546. asked him if he wanted
some easy money.Copy !req
547. What was the job?Copy !req
548. Accompany some woman
to a Broadway premiere.Copy !req
549. I don't know how they wound up
at that hotel.Copy !req
550. Did Leslie know that you
were finding a substitute?Copy !req
551. No.Copy !req
552. Leslie doesn't know Greg.Copy !req
553. He's a buddy from college.Copy !req
554. He'd been bugging me for a
chance to try to be an escort.Copy !req
555. Now, Tommy, you were the oneCopy !req
556. who was supposed to be out
on that job.Copy !req
557. You think that's
a coincidence?Copy !req
558. Leslie's all about business.Copy !req
559. I still owe her $28,000.
Killing me makes no sense.Copy !req
560. It does if she thought
that you can hurt her.Copy !req
561. Can you?Copy !req
562. Leslie says she runs a legitimate
escort service. But she's really a pimp.Copy !req
563. How often was sex
part of the package?Copy !req
564. Client pays an extra $200 an hour,
she gets whatever she wants...Copy !req
565. as long as
the escort's willing.Copy !req
566. Victor Coe in on that?Copy !req
567. Until he got greedy.Copy !req
568. Decided if he was performing the
service, he should keep the money himself.Copy !req
569. Did Leslie call Victor Coe
the night he was attacked?Copy !req
570. She told me
she couldn't find anyone else.Copy !req
571. She hired him back
for the night.Copy !req
572. I can't believe
she did this on purpose.Copy !req
573. Anything?Copy !req
574. Victor's LUDs confirmed the call from
Leslie Desantis the night of the attack.Copy !req
575. We checked all three hotels'
registration lists. No matching names.Copy !req
576. You think Desantis knows
who these people are?Copy !req
577. Maybe she helps them
fulfill their fantasies.Copy !req
578. Pimps don't just supply
client lists.Copy !req
579. They are supposed to provide
protection and screen out the freaks.Copy !req
580. So you think she intentionally
sent her escorts to the slaughter?Copy !req
581. She sent Tommy Dowd
to these people twice.Copy !req
582. I think she knew what she was doing.
That's not enough to arrest her.Copy !req
583. It's enough for a search warrant.
But you serve it and she's tipped off.Copy !req
584. You're left with pimping
and...Copy !req
585. one uncorroborated statement
from a co-conspirator.Copy !req
586. Any suggestions, counselor?
We're open to them.Copy !req
587. Maybe Tommy Dowd will agree
to wear a wire.Copy !req
588. We have nothing to offer him.Copy !req
589. Except the chance
to do the right thing...Copy !req
590. especially if he feels he's
responsible for his friend's death.Copy !req
591. I'm not wearing a wire.Copy !req
592. Leslie killed your friend, Tommy.
She tried to kill you twice.Copy !req
593. You have no proof. You argued
with her, you got beaten up.Copy !req
594. Your friend Victor stole from
her, and now he's in a coma.Copy !req
595. That doesn't mean she knows
who this couple is.Copy !req
596. Leslie expected you to be in that
hotel room, not your friend Gregory.Copy !req
597. If we don't stop her, she's
going to kill someone else.Copy !req
598. Water's almost ready.
I'll get the linguine.Copy !req
599. What's wrong with you tonight?
You seem so quiet.Copy !req
600. Say something, Tommy.
Greg's dead.Copy !req
601. Thank God it wasn't you.Copy !req
602. He was supposed to escort a woman to
the theatre. Not to the Broadway Hotel.Copy !req
603. Client wants you to
spend the night...Copy !req
604. it's part of the job.
You get well paid for it.Copy !req
605. Getting bludgeoned
isn't part of the job.Copy !req
606. Greg's dead,
Victor's still in a coma.Copy !req
607. I am sorry about your friend. As
for Victor, he got what he deserved.Copy !req
608. Got her.
What about me?Copy !req
609. I never meant for you to get hurt. You
think I wouldn't protect my investment?Copy !req
610. Come over here.
I'm not in the mood.Copy !req
611. What is this?
It's my walkman.Copy !req
612. She found it.
Let's move.Copy !req
613. You ungrateful little bastard!Copy !req
614. Go! Open it! Go!Copy !req
615. Police.Copy !req
616. Show me your hands!Copy !req
617. SVU, detail, 10-54.
We've got severe burns.Copy !req
618. Rush a bus
and notify the burn unit.Copy !req
619. You know, murdering a witness
is a death penalty crime.Copy !req
620. He dies, so do you.
Screw you.Copy !req
621. Hang in there, Tommy.
You hang in there.Copy !req
622. How bad is he?Copy !req
623. Second degree burns on head,
neck, face, arms and hands.Copy !req
624. Why did she do it?
She discovered the wire.Copy !req
625. Couldn't get to him fast
enough. What do we tell her?Copy !req
626. I'm working on it.Copy !req
627. Mrs. Dowd, this is our boss,
Captain Cragen...Copy !req
628. and the Assistant
District Attorney, Cabot.Copy !req
629. We cannot tell you how sorry
we are about this.Copy !req
630. How did it happen?Copy !req
631. Your son was helping us in the
investigation into who attacked him.Copy !req
632. He volunteered to...
You allowed Tommy to do this?Copy !req
633. We felt it was the only way...
You should have found another way.Copy !req
634. We have the person
who hurt him.Copy !req
635. And she's being charged
with attempted murder.Copy !req
636. If my son survives, I am sure he will
be glad to hear that. Who approved this?Copy !req
637. I did.Copy !req
638. Mrs. Dowd, I am...
Look what you did to him.Copy !req
639. What do you want us to do?Copy !req
640. I need your fives typed and ready
before the inquisition begins.Copy !req
641. I am sorry about your friend.Copy !req
642. As for Victor,
he got what he deserved.Copy !req
643. They're just words.Copy !req
644. Which establish a motive
for the attack on Victor Coe.Copy !req
645. You can't prove intent.Copy !req
646. Can't I?
No.Copy !req
647. Tommy Dowd was beaten.Copy !req
648. He would've been murdered if Gregory
Moore hadn't filled in for him.Copy !req
649. I had nothing do with that. Ask
your attorney to explain it to you.Copy !req
650. You set Dowd up, Moore was killed in
his place. That makes you responsible.Copy !req
651. Tommy Dowd with his disfigured face
should be a very compelling witness.Copy !req
652. He won't testify against me.Copy !req
653. Why do you think
he agreed to wear a wire?Copy !req
654. He knew you were trying to kill
him. I didn't try to kill anyone.Copy !req
655. It was just business.
Leslie...Copy !req
656. These women don't know if
someone loves them or their money.Copy !req
657. I provide companionship.Copy !req
658. You are nothing
but a high-priced pimp.Copy !req
659. And like a pimp, you use violence
to keep your stable in line.Copy !req
660. I still haven't heard
the word "Deal. "Copy !req
661. Man one on Gregory Moore and she
gives me the couple who killed him.Copy !req
662. She didn't kill him.
Assault two on Dowd.Copy !req
663. No deal on Dowd. It's man one
or nothing. Take it or leave it.Copy !req
664. Listen to me. I have no idea
who those people are.Copy !req
665. Why should I believe you?Copy !req
666. Check my records.Copy !req
667. All three times, they called in
a different credit card number.Copy !req
668. Sometimes a man, sometimes a woman.
I didn't know it was the same couple.Copy !req
669. Leslie's not lying. Second and
third escort reservations...Copy !req
670. were also made with
stolen credit card numbers.Copy !req
671. We checked the names against the
guest lists in both hotels. No matches.Copy !req
672. The perps had to get
the numbers somewhere.Copy !req
673. Common denominators?Copy !req
674. All of the cards were used within
the last month for purchases from...Copy !req
675. different
mail order companies.Copy !req
676. That doesn't sound promising.Copy !req
677. Except that the companies
operate out of the same warehouse.Copy !req
678. Scott Distributing,
Dutchess County.Copy !req
679. So, whoever's billing the credit card
companies is stealing the numbers.Copy !req
680. Their accountants handle the billing.
A powerhouse firm on 3rd Avenue.Copy !req
681. I'll help you any way I can, detectives,
but I'm sure nobody here is responsible.Copy !req
682. Who can we talk to about
the Scott account?Copy !req
683. Gary Sutton's the senior who runs
it, but I think he left early today.Copy !req
684. In the middle of tax season?
Even accountants have a life.Copy !req
685. It's his anniversary. I think they
were going to a show and dinner.Copy !req
686. Is there any way that
we could reach him?Copy !req
687. I doubt his cell phone is on
if he's in the theatre.Copy !req
688. Is this Mrs. Sutton?Copy !req
689. Darlene.
Olivia, she look familiar?Copy !req
690. The couple from the hotel.Copy !req
691. From Altoona.
You got it.Copy !req
692. Is something wrong?Copy !req
693. We are going to need
Mr. Sutton's home address.Copy !req
694. Sure. Let me get that for you.Copy !req
695. Playbills.Copy !req
696. Like the theatre.Copy !req
697. Look at this, on the night table.
Didn't even bother to hide them.Copy !req
698. Check out the one on top.Copy !req
699. Joseph Woodward. Our friend
from Altoona, Pennsylvania.Copy !req
700. An accountant, he has rich
clients, pays their bills.Copy !req
701. He can order himself
a credit card in their names.Copy !req
702. The ones he doesn't
have cards for...Copy !req
703. he uses over the phones.
We got to run these numbers.Copy !req
704. Have Munch and Fin meet
us there. Find anything?Copy !req
705. One of the numbers was used to book
an escort. 7:00, Madison Terrace Hotel.Copy !req
706. That's 15 minutes from now.Copy !req
707. Excuse me.
Be with you in a second.Copy !req
708. Police. Now.Copy !req
709. What is it?
She in here tonight?Copy !req
710. She was with that guy
over there. Just walked out.Copy !req
711. He still here?
Fortunately for him.Copy !req
712. Meeting someone?Copy !req
713. Who are you?
Police.Copy !req
714. What room is she in?
What are you talking about?Copy !req
715. Come on.
You are an escort, right?Copy !req
716. You just gave this woman
the key to your room?Copy !req
717. She told you to
wait five minutes...Copy !req
718. and follow her.
You were about to go up?Copy !req
719. And if I was? Then this is
the luckiest day of your life.Copy !req
720. We need your room number
and your room key.Copy !req
721. 526.Copy !req
722. Is someone there?
What do you want with me?Copy !req
723. Police! Show me your hands!
Don't shoot!Copy !req
724. Help me, Gary!
Hands behind your back now!Copy !req
725. Fantasy's over, Darlene.

728. I get home one night...Copy !req
729. I hear noises.Copy !req
730. Go into the bedroom.Copy !req
731. Some guy's on top of Darlene.Copy !req
732. They're struggling.
I thought he was raping her.Copy !req
733. What did you do?Copy !req
734. Yanked him off.Copy !req
735. Roughed him up.
Did you call the police?Copy !req
736. Darlene told me
he was a delivery guy.Copy !req
737. She invited him in.Copy !req
738. She knew I was coming home.Copy !req
739. I was her hero.Copy !req
740. I saved her.Copy !req
741. It turned me on.Copy !req
742. We let the guy go.Copy !req
743. Were the escorts
your idea or hers?Copy !req
744. Hers.Copy !req
745. She picked up some guy from out of town,
but he didn't want to play the game.Copy !req
746. Darlene figured we'd get what
we want if we paid for it.Copy !req
747. You went along with this?Copy !req
748. Don't you understand?Copy !req
749. I love her.Copy !req

755. I got drawn into it.Copy !req
756. It just happened.Copy !req
757. I don't believe this.Copy !req
758. Maybe murder two and
two counts of assault one...Copy !req
759. will bring him back
to reality.Copy !req
760. It's not him
I'm worried about.Copy !req
761. She will get a lawyer who will come
up with some designer psych defense.Copy !req
762. She's just as guilty as he is.
But he's the killer.Copy !req
763. She'll sell him out.Copy !req
764. So she walks,
and he does 25 to life.Copy !req
765. I wonder what
he's fantasizing about now.Copy !req
766. Gary said...Copy !req
767. he would kill for me.Copy !req
768. It was the most powerful
aphrodisiac I've ever felt.Copy !req

770. Who did he rescue you from?
The men.Copy !req
771. In the store, on the subway,
in the street.Copy !req
772. They would look at me.Copy !req
773. I knew if they had the chance,
they would ravage me.Copy !req
774. I told Gary.Copy !req
775. It made him...Copy !req
776. wild.Copy !req
777. An animal.Copy !req
778. That...Copy !req
779. businessman, he wouldn't play,
but...Copy !req
780. the escorts...Copy !req
781. they would do anything
that I wanted.Copy !req
782. All the time...Copy !req
