CSI New York Episode XXII Season 10

EPISODE XXII: I’ILL DRAG YOU TO HELL

"Dean! You still have time to reconsider it!" a blonde girl told to a tall dark boy with eyes of ice

"Are you kidding?" he replied "There are ten thousand pounds at stake! When we’ll get back to London I want that everyone knows about my heroic adventure!"

"It's a stupid thing!" she decreed "Come on! To spend the night in the wax museum!"

"The Madame Tussaus museum here in New York is the wax museum par excellence!"

"I remind you that we also have one in our immortal London!"

"Hurry up and get out! Soon the museum will close!" he said curtly

"I was hoping at least to be able to bring you something for dinner!"

"Tomorrow morning you will offer me breakfast!" he smiled kissing her "Ten minutes to eight, honey!"

The girl touched the tip of his nose with the index finger "See you tomorrow morning at ten o'clock!" and she went away.

Jo smiled into the bathtub while Sheldon rubbing her back with sponge

"Is the water still warm?"

Jo nodded blowing the foam in front of her "I'd forgotten how wonderful is to have the both done!"

"I am here at your service!" Sheldon said pulling back his shirt sleeves "If I had returned early from work, we could have taken a bath together!"

"Forget it! The bath is sacrum and I do it on my own or, as in this case, I have it done!"

Ellie went into the bathroom snorting "Haven’t you made ​​her get out of the tub yet? I’d like to take a hot bath too!"

"Another ten minutes, Ellie! I promise I'll go out!"

"Mom, you said that sentence about half an hour ago! If more than Sheldon doesn’t stop pamper you, I swear I'll go crazy!" she bellowed coming out of the bathroom slamming the door.

Jaime laughed leaning her elbow on the chest Flack who tried to rise from the bed

"I hate you!"

"I love you!" he replied

Jaime burst into another laugh "I might decide to do anything now, for example... to kill you!"

"You would be capable of that! I remind you that you are tired too!"

"We just finished our turn! I have absolutely no desire to cook!"

"And who wants to eat?" Flack asked looking at his beloved dog on the door "I don’t think, however, that she will leave us in peace if we don’t give her the dinner!" he said indicating it with his eyes.

Flack’s phone rang "This is a nightmare!" he said reading the message

"What is it Don?"

"I have to get back to work! Guess who has become a wax figure!" he snorted taking the keys on the table and the jacket from a chair in the room.

Isabella looked Mac "Apparently, the mechanical wax figures frightened him!"

"Would you say then that it is a heart attack?" Mac asked

Isabella lowered the victim’s shirt collar "How do you explain this?"

"I guess I'll have to examine the scene and you our boy longer!"

Flack appeared a bit annoyed "What did this guy want to do? Launch a new fashion? People usually gets close up in cemeteries on Halloween! He was wrong than a few months!"

"I imagine that the case has just ruined you the evening!" Mac suggested

"Yes!" Flack replied dryly "What was the name the victim?"

"Dean Berry! According to me it is murder! Do you wanna help me find it out?"

"Where do we start?" Flack said

"By questioning the clerk of the restoration and maintenance of the statues lab! He was the only present!"

Flack answered the phone and barely he hung up he looked at Mac in the eyes

"There is need for you! Jo has a problem with a murder!"

"Where?" Mac asked

"Park Avenue!" Flack replied.

Peyton was looking at a corpse lying in the bed and Sheldon to another in the bathroom

"How much blood!" Jo exclaimed "What could have happened?"

"We have the murder weapon!" a police officer exclaimed attracting the attention of Jo toward the floor of the antechamber "Look here Detective!"

Jo stared at the kitchen knife for a while "Good job!" she said photographing "But to make this mess a kitchen knife is not enough!"

Mac entered the apartment "Jo?" he called

"Mac! Finally you’re here! We need your consultation!" Sheldon said seeing him enter from the bathroom that was to the right of the front door

"Is she the victim?" he asked pulling on his gloves and leaning over by lighting the torch to examine the woman

"One of the two! The other one is the husband in the bedroom!"

Jo came into the bathroom "We've got a knife!"

"It’s not enough as murder weapon! The murder has brought something with him!" he said looking at the body in the bathtub "The victim is missing a foot!"

"The right one!" Sheldon pointed

"The husband is missing his right hand!" Peyton said entering the bathroom "It is a nice night, isn’t it?"

"Do we know something about them?" Mac asked

"Michele and Anna Martini! They are Italian, but they have been living here in New York in the last ten years!" Jo said

Mac came out of the bathroom and he walked into the kitchen. He heard a sob coming from under the sideboard "Hey!" he exclaimed bending down. He met his eyes with those ones of a visibly frightened little girl "Don’t be afraid!" Mac said handing her a hand "Come out! It's all over!"

The little girl cried "Is the man with the steel hand gone?" the girl asked "Where are my mum and my daddy?"

"Come out! It's all gone! Your mom and your dad are not there! There’s me here with you!"

The girl took Mac’s hand and she went out

"Who are you?"

"I'm Lieutenant Taylor Mac!" he smiled at her settling her nightgown "What about you, what's your name?"

"Cristina!" she said looking around

"How many years do you have?" Mac asked her

"Five!" the girl replied beginning to tremble "The man with the steel hand wanted to hurt us!"

"I am here with you now! Nothing will happen to you!" Mac hugged the girl and picked her up.

Jo walked into the kitchen "From where has she burst out?"

"I don’t know! Now she needs someone who would be close to her! Wake up Danny and Lindsay! I'll take care to wake up Adam!" he said cradling the little girl "She is the only witness that we have!" he picked up his phone and saw a message from Flack

-Problems! The guardian cannot find the keys and the manufacturer of the statues doesn’t make us enter the lab!

I need a warrant!-

Peyton looked at Isabella to end his autopsy

"Do you have to do something else?"

"Just to send the blood to the lab to have the toxicology... haven’t you even started Peyton?" she asked seeing the two bodies on the metal surfaces

"No! I wanted to know if by any chance Hawkes has found something that might explain the cuts that don’t match the knife we found!"

"Hopefully!" Isabella exclaimed approaching with the body to one of the refrigerators and opening it.

Hawkes entered the morgue "Bad news! We don’t have the weapon that caused those wounds!" he pulled on one of the white coats "Since I am here I'll give you a hand! Which of the two do you want?"

"I'll take him!"

"Fine!" Sheldon said starting to work "Isabella at which point are you?"

"Heart attack is not the cause of death! Something, however, sent him into cardiac arrest and before that in respiratory failure!" she began to draw up the autopsy report "Where can I find Mac?"

"I think you will have to wait until tomorrow! The daughter of the victims doesn’t want to leave him! Social workers have said that it is better if he takes care of her!"

"By saying it in briefly?" Isabella asked

"He took her at his place!"

Christine looked at the girl calmly drinking hot chocolate in front of her on the kitchen table

"What's your name?" the little girl asked "I don’t want to call you Mrs. Taylor!"

"My name is Christine!" she smiled

"My name it’s identical to your own!" the little girl smiled looking at a photo "What’s that picture?"

"It’s Mac, me, our children, Mac’s mother and my parents on Christmas day!"

"Can I see it?"

Christine took the photo from the shelf and placed it on the table

"Where are the children now?" Cristina asked "I would love to see them!"

"Now they are sleeping! Tomorrow morning I'll introduce them to you! Finish your chocolate and then we'll go to sleep!"

Cristina finished the chocolate and then took Christine’s hand

"Will I sleep alone?"

"No! You'll sleep in the double bed next to me!"

"There will also be Mac?" asked Cristina

"No, he has to work!" Christine said opening the door to the room "What how about if we take off this nightie and we put something else?"

"Okay!" the girl said and she let Christine took away the dirty nightgown "What should I wear?"

Christine gave her a wool sweater "It is not of your size... but for this night is enough!" she went to the door "Wait here! I'll be back!"

Mac was waiting Christine in the bathroom "Did you manage to do that?"

"Yes! Here's the little girl nightgown!" she said putting it in the bag "Don’t be surprised if there is even my DNA on it!"

"You stupid! I know that you do not have them killed! I cannot understand why she is so attached to me! Jo, for example, she sees her as an enemy!"

"Easy! Everyone would like you as father!" Christine said kissing him "Leave everything here in the bathroom and go to say goodnight to her!"

Mac came out of the bathroom and went into the room

"Is the bed comfortable?" he asked approaching "Tomorrow I must ask you to help me! But now you need to sleep!"

The girl nodded "What time do you come back?"

"I don’t know! It depends on whether I can finish it or not!"

"Mom and dad will come to pick me up tomorrow?" the little girl asked

"No! Your mom and your dad willon’t pick you up tomorrow!"

"So, can I stay with you and Christine?" the little girl shyly asked

"Of course you're staying with us! Where would you go?" Mac asked stroking her cheek "Now go to sleep!" and he kissed her on the cheek.

Christine saw him leave and she sighed "Doesn’t she remember anything?"

"No! It seems she wanted to remove the memory!" he kissed her and took her hand entering the room of the children "They're sleeping! Faith woke up a little earlier while I was changing my shirt! She hasn’t figured out yet that I cannot breastfeed!"

"Tell me that's not true! How many times has it happened?" Christine asked

"Only one! I detached her immediately as soon as she tried to suck! It hurts!" he complained

"What should I say?" Christine retorted "Go to work!" she said taking him back to the bathroom to take the bag with the nightgown "Exchange your cases that given to Jo! It makes no sense that she works in the case of Martinis if you have their daughter in your house!"

Mac stood in the doorway "Make her sleep!"

"You know that I love children Mac!"

Christine closed the door while Mac went away and, turning, she saw the picture remained on the table.

On December 16, Christine was about to be discharged from the hospital and Mac was helping her to take the last things

"Have we taken everything?" Christine had asked noticing Mac struggling with the buttons of his shirt because his right arm immobilized "Come here!" Christine had said sitting down on the bed "I was hoping you could help me to bring the kids, but reduced in this way I think you'll find hard even to keep the coat closed! Why are you wearing this shirt to pick me up? It is the most elegant you've got!"

"You'll find out soon!"

"I don’t like when you are so mysterious!" she had rebuked him.

Peyton had come in with the twins "They're both ready! Do you want me to medicate the wound now, Mac? At least you're not coming here in the afternoon!"

"Thank you, Peyton!" Mac had smiled and then he had turned to Christine "Honey could you..." he had said pointing to the buttons

"Sure, Mac!" Christine had said beginning to unfasten his shirt.

Peyton had taken the gauzes and disinfectant and as soon as Mac had shown himself ready she had the patch removed and she had disinfected the wound to him.

He had curled his nose and gritted his teeth "I've always hated that smell!"

"I think it’s not only that!" Peyton had said putting the plaster on the wound and helping Mac with the arm brace "It’s healing well! No news on the psychopath who has almost killed you? Do you know who was to dispose of her?"

"No, we don’t know anything!" Mac had said looking at Christine who was finishing to re-fasten him in his shirt.

Peyton had seen Jo get in the room

"Sorry for the intrusion! The door was open and so..."

Mac had smiled "Are they here?"

"Yes," Jo had nodded "I do I get them?"

Mac had nodded in turn

"What's going on?" Christine had asked as the door was about to open.

The parents of Christine and Millie had entered with tears in her eyes

"Christine!" Mrs. Whitney had exclaimed with tears in her eyes

"My little girl!" Mr. Whitney had echoed

"Thank God you're all right!" Millie had said with a sigh "What did you do to your arm?"

"It's just a scratch!" Mac had smiled "I wanted to introduce you to someone else!" he had moved to side to reveal that behind him there were the cradles with the twins “They are McKenna Stanton III and Trinity Faith!"

The three had remained shocked

"Are they both yours?" Christine's father had asked

"Have you got doubts on it by any chance? The little girl has her father's face while the boy has the perfect mix of both!" Christine’s mother had annotated.

Millie had approached Christine "Has Mac stayed with you the whole time?"

"In a dark and grimy basement with a bullet in his shoulder! He didn’t leave me a second even when McKenna was born and I continued to feel bad! We didn’t know that Faith would be born! We discovered it at the moment!"

Millie had kissed the forehead of Christine and then she had looked at Mac with anger "A scratch, huh?"

Christine's parents had intervened

"We will help you with kids until Mac you won’t be recovered completely!" Christine’s mother had said

"We will arrange also Christmas lunch!" his father added.

Millie had smiled "Don’t forget Mac’s colleagues! Especially Detective Danville! Without them we wouldn’t be here today!"

Jo who had been watching with Python had started to smile.

Millie had looked Peyton "Have you taken care of Mac or Christine?"

"Mainly Christine and children! Let's say that Mac’s dressings are a favor as a friend!"

Both Mac and Christine had their noses curled

"Mac, you never told me to have friendships within the hospital!" Millie had said

"Friendship is not the right word, Mrs. Taylor! Former girlfriend are more appropriate words!" Peyton had pointed out looking at the pager "Look! A friend of mine and old Mac’s flame after me, is informing me that there is an emergency! I wish you a happy returning home!”

Christine and Mac had burned her with a look and her parents had pointed one accuser look on Mac

"Cannot I have had some relationship during these years?"

"Some?" Christine's father had scolded him "At this moment I want the exact number!"

Jo had smiled "I can assure you that Mac is faithful to Christine!"

"In Mac’s defense I can list my short love affairs with Louis, Tobey, Laurent, Nate and Igor!" Christine had retorted "And now let's go home! I hate the smell that's in here!"

Christine took the picture and put it back on the shelf and looked at the clock. He went into the room to Cristina and lay down beside her

"I'm sorry if I made you wait! Now I'm here with you and we can sleep!"

Adam yawned looking at the knife and Danny approached him

“Wake up Adam! Wake up!”

Adam got up from the table “Danny boy! Has Mac thorn you out of your bed too?” he asked

“Yep! I saw him in the morgue before! He and Jo are exchanging their cases! Mac is very good with children! Don’t you think it, Adam?”

“I’m sure of it!” he said by paying attention to the knife again “Can you explain me how wax has ended on the blade of the cook knife?”

“How many DNA traces there were on it?”

“Two! They were Martinis ones!”

“And in addiction to those you found wax?” Danny asked “I’ll go to bring the pictures taken by Jo on the scene!”

“Anyway, are you all right? I mean…what happened to you…”

“I’m fine, Adam!” Danny assured him.

Lindsay looked the toxicological results with Isabella

“Nothing on nothing!” Lindsay snorted

“As you  can see, whatever he  had in his blood hasn’t left trace! We’ve got a quite wide range of poisons! Is that Danny?” she asked pointing out the lab’s glass

“Yes! He’s feeling better and, little by little, he is gaining trust in himself! It’s wonderful to see him smile again and out of that dark room!”

“You helped him a lot!”

Danny approached the analyses lab where Lindsay and Isabella were talking

“May I ask you a favor, girls?”

“If we can do it…” Isabella said

"We have found waxy residue on the knife used as murder weapon!" Danny explained "Except that on the scene there were no wax candles and then I wonder: where does it come from?"

"Peyton has done the autopsy on the bodies! I don’t really know how to help you!"

"I would need a sample of wax from the nails of the guy! To compare the compositions because there were also traces of soap and vegetable oils...”

Isabella intuited "They are used to make malleable wax!"

"Boom!" Danny exclaimed "Maybe Mac and Jo will have to work together!"

"You're assuming, without having first checked, that who killed the Martinis is connected to the wax museum!?" Lindsay exclaimed "I wouldn’t have ever expected it from you!"

Adam was upset by the arrival of Flack in the lab

"Where is Mac?" he asked

"In the morgue!" Adam said quickly "Has something happened?"

Flack nodded "We have the girlfriend of the boy who died of a heart attack at the precinct! I think that Mac has to give her some explanations!"

Adam looked at his watch "It's three in the morning! How can she already be in your precinct?"

Flack shrugged his shoulders in an expression of doubt "And who knows? She says she called him on the phone and he didn’t answer!"

Adam saw Mac enter the lab "I heard that Flack was looking for me! What's going on?"

"The dead at the museum, is he still your case?"

Mac sighed "I might have to work with Jo on this connecting it to the Martinis’ case!"

"And where does this come out?" Adam asked puzzled

"From a trace that you've found it! Danny assumes that the wax can be the same as the statues in the museum!"

Flack jumped "When did the Martinis die?"

"According to the autopsy of Peyton, around nine at night! While the boy at ten!"

Flack shook his head "A little strange as it may be the same person!"

"That's why I asked Jo to trace all the paths that lead to the museum from Martinis’ home! In order to what you were here, Flack?"

"You must come to the precinct! There’s a girl named Samantha Stanford who claims to be Dean’s girlfriend!" he explained "She seems sincere to me! I would prefer that to question her is you!"

"Ok! I’ll question her now! Come on!" Mac turned to Adam "When I’ll come back we'll go to my place to take up the little Cristina, meanwhile analyzes her nightgown!"

"It will be done!" Adam replied

"Come on Adam! It's a hard night for everyone!" Flack jeered him seeing the sleepy look of a lab technician.

Jo and Sheldon ran into the hallway of the lab to the elevators

"Jo slow down! In your state you have to go slowly! Do you want the little girl born early?"

"No, but we have to move!" Jo said slowing down a bit "Jaime told me that Mr. Simmons wasn’t at the museum from the seven thirty to eight thirty! He is the only besides the guardian to have access keys! At nine the Martinis died, but it all started at least an hour before! I want to question him and immediately!"

Sheldon snorted "Why don’t you let Mac do it?"

"Because he's busy with Dean’s girlfriend!"

Mac looked at the surprised girl

"Are you telling me that he did it for a bet?"

"Yes, and I can assure you that he wasn’t suffering from heart disease! So when your colleague told me that it was a heart attack, I was suspicious! According to the agreements we would have to call each other at one o'clock to see if everything was OK and at ten o'clock in the morning I was supposed to go to the museum!"

Flack sighed "Here in New York you had no rivals or...”

"No! The bet was between friends! Two left for London yesterday while one lives here and..."

"And?" Flack said perplexed

"And he works at the museum!"

"What is his name?" Mac asked

"George Simmons!" the girl replied.

Mac and Flack looked at each other with a look of understanding

"As it happens, he lacked to the museum!" Mac said

"George is suspected?!" the girl asked shocked.

Jo and Sheldon were with Simmons in the interrogation room next to the one where there were Mac and Flack. Jaime had joined them and listened patiently for the interrogator’s answers

"I'm sure you'll find the real culprit!" Simmons said finishing his answer

"You should be at the museum to work from early morning to late at night... you take care of plaster casts, is it correct?" Jo asked

"Yes! I am convinced that the real culprit will be found! I was out for a bite! I left everything in the hands of my assistant Frank Miller!"

Jaime saw Mac come with Flack

"Let’s talk about betting Simmons!" Mac exclaimed "We just let go Dean’s girlfriend, one of your best friends! How were you planning to pay in case he’d have won bet?"

Simmons blinked "I don’t think to understand where you're getting at!"

Mac looked at Jo ask for an explanation with his eyes and he said "You have a financial problem! You're about to be fired and there is the mortgage on the house to pay! The Pounds are stronger currency than the Dollars!" Simmons looked at him "You and your two English friends bet that Dean wouldn’t have remained in the museum for the night! How were you planning to pay your share?"

"3334 Pounds!" Simmons exclaimed "I would had to pay 3334 pounds!" he raised his hands to his face "I'm just appalled by the fact that everything has happened in the museum! I am aware that the suspects would lead to me and I will not tire of repeating that I am innocent!"

Adam looked at his watch "Where are you Mac?"

Mac came into the lab "Did you found something on the little girl’s nightgown?"

"Only the parents' DNA and traces of wax... It's ten o'clock ! Don’t you think that Christine has enough to do with your kids? How long do you want to leave her the responsibility of that little girl?!"

Mac said "Grab your jacket! Let's go get the girl!"

Mac parked under the house "Ready to come in and see her for the first time?"

"What do you mean?" Adam asked

"But how?!" Mac exclaimed "You said that you would like to adopt a child!"

"I thought that the social worker wanted you and Christine to adopted her!"

Mac got out and Adam followed him "I cannot adopt her! There are two small children at house and they are my children! I don’t want neither she neither they be jealous!"

Adam nodded "What did the social worker say?"

"That I could adopt her or help him to find someone reliable who could do it! Stella told me that you were going to adopt a baby! Although she is no longer there, you can do it!"

Adam followed Mac up the stairs "But she is fond of you!"

"She sees me as her current protector! You've won two girls at the precinct once! If they have stopped playing with PSP and they have listened to you, it means that you’re keen on it!" Mac said opening the door

"Good morning, Mac!" Christine exclaimed "Hello, Adam!"

Adam smiled as Mac gently kissed Christine

"Is the little girl awake?" Mac asked

"Yes, and she has already had breakfast!"

Adam walked timidly into the apartment.

Cristina was sitting at the table and she smiled seeing Mac enter "Hello!"

Mac walked over to the girl "Hello baby!"

Adam followed him "Hello Cristina! I'm Adam, a friend of Mac!" he said sitting at the table with her.

The girl laughed "You look like my dad so much!"

Mac looked at Adam burst out laughing sheepishly.

"What did I say?" Cristina said "You turned red!"

Flack entered with Jaime in the lab where Simmons worked

"This smell of wax is unbearable!" Jaime said

"To know that I would have taken Danny!" Flack exclaimed "Recently you’re complaining too much about the places where we go! -And this bothers me-  -It stinks!-  -But why there’s never a crime scene less messed up?- May I know what's wrong? You have never been like this!”

Jaime looked a plaster cast on the table and she sought the original model from those available.

Flack dropped a glass jar containing a hand accidentally, the liquid toppled on the floor and he bent down to pick up the hand fallen "Jaime! Call Lindsay who is checking with two other cops upstairs! This is not a hand of wax!"

Adam and Christina were laughing sitting in the office of Mac

"Really you're not a cop?" the girl asked

"Really! My fiancée was it!"

"What was her name?" the little girl asked

"Stella!"

"Was she Italian?" the little girl asked by playing with a paper boat

"For a half!" Adam smiled

"Do you know that I can speak Italian?" Cristina smiled "At school and with all the others I speak American, but with mom and dad I speak only Italian! Mom is teaching me even to write!"

Mac sighed "You don’t remember anything of what happened when I found you, do you?"

"I just remember mom woke me up and she hid me under the kitchen! I heard screams! I think it was my dad! Someone was hurting him! Mom had the phone in her hand and she was trying to call someone! A man made her fall to the ground and he dragged her into the bathroom!" the little girl began to tremble "There was silence then I heard something creak and a strange noise! I don’t know what it was!"

Adam looked at the little girl "Why don’t we go for a walk in the park? I'll buy cotton candy and we will feed the ducks!"

Mac nodded "Go up with Adam! We will continue to talk later!"

"I don’t like to talk about these things!" the little girl trembled "I'm afraid to talk about it! I don’t want the man with the iron hand to come and get me!"

"Iron hand?" Mac asked

"Yes! He took my mom to a foot and...” Cristina began to cry "Then the knife and..."

Mac stood up from his desk and he knelt down before her and Adam embraced her from behind

"It'll be okay!" Adam smiled at her "No one will hurt you! Mac and I won’t allow it!"

The little girl hugged Mac and Adam sobbing "I'm so scared! If he then comes to pick me up?"

"We will fill him with kicks in pooh!" Adam said.

Lindsay felt faint "I'm not kidding! This statue is actually..."

Danny came up behind her and took her hand "How can you say that?"

"Look at the hand, Danny! I took a piece of a fingernail and found that it is really keratin! There are also fingerprints and they have match!"

Jaime appeared out of breath in the room

"At last I found you! Flack in the lab has found a hand in a jar!"

"We a whole body!" Danny said pointing to the statue

"Are you kidding? The statue is actually..." Jaime shuddered "I'm going to inform Jo!"

Jo was with Sheldon in the office when she received the call

"My God!" she exclaimed appalled "I’ll be right there! What about Simmons’s assistant? Did you find him?"

"No, Jo!" Jaime said with regret "Flack will continue to try!"

Adam held Cristina hand "How’s cotton candy?"

"Good! Thanks Adam!" Cristina smiled "Now that my parents are no longer here, where shall I go on living?"

"I believe that a social worker will take care of you!"

Cristina looked at Adam "But cannot I stay with Mac or with you?"

"Well, it depends neither from me neither from Mac! We have to see what the social worker will choose!"

"But you're funny and Mac is cool! I want to stay with one of you!" the girl complained

"I would also like so much that you could stay with me! Before that Stella had gone and before I discovered that I would become a father, we were deemed suitable for adoption!"

"I don’t want to go in an orphanage! Please!" the girl said stopping in the middle of the path of the park.

Something caught the attention of the girl who began to pant and Adam turned to the point where Cristina was watching "What's happening?"

"He's here! The man with the iron hand!" the girl said clutching Adam

"Are you sure it's not your imagination?" Adam noticed that there was no one in the driveway and he looked at the man who Cristina was staring at "Just because that man is dressed in black and has a menacing air doesn’t mean that he is the man who has hurt to your parents!"

"He came for me!" the girl was petrified.

The man dressed in black stepped forward fast and he discovered a hand and Adam noticed that it glowed in the sunlight

"Hold on to me!" he said picking the little girl up from the ground and he began to run.

The man who followed them and was very fast, Adam reached his cell phone and dialed 911

"I'm Adam Ross! A man in a dark suit is chasing me in Central Park! He wants to kill me and the witness in Martinis’ case!"

Adam cut a lawn and he hid himself among the trees

"I'm afraid Adam!"

"Don’t worry! They’ll comb the whole park for us! We're safe!"

The man dressed in black took a few steps in their direction and Cristina began to cry clutching at Adam. The man moved to one of the branches and he found Adam and Christina’s hiding place.

Adam pushed the girl into the thick vegetation "Run Cristina!"

The little girl began to delve into bushes and she reached an alley full of people

"Help!" she began to cry out "They want to kill us! Call the police!"

Mac and Sheldon were going through at that moment

"Cristina! What happened? Where is Adam?" Mac asked

The little girl pointed to the shady driveway

"Hurry up! The man with the iron hand had just found us!"

Mac and Flack left the girl with one of the officers and ran into the driveway.

Adam had climbed up a tree and beneath him was the man dressed in black with the right hand of steel.

Flack pointed the gun "NYPD! Turn around and keep your hands in plain sight!"

The man turned around and he revealed his disfigured face laughing

"Frank Miller! You're under arrest for the murder of Martinis, for the attempted murder of Christina Martini and Adam Ross!" Mac ruled

Frank Miller smiled "You have nothing! Nothing!"

"everything you’ll say can be used against you in court!" Flack said approaching.

Frank Miller smiled "I won’t go in jail!" and he rushed on Flack.

Mac caught him from behind and he jumped on him, but Flack did not get up from the ground.

"Flack!" Adam cried coming down from the tree and turning toward Mac struggling with Miller "Did you handcuff him, Mac?"

"Yes! Now I’ll raise him up!" he said moving Frank Miller and crushing him against the tree “Nasty Asshole!" Mac was pale and he twisted into a grimace of pain.

Adam examined Flack "Don’t worry Don! Now the ambulance will come!" he turned to Mac "That horrible thing hit, Don in the stomach! Call for reinforcements, Mac!" only then he realized that Mac was crying in pain and he kept Miller sidelined against the tree trunk with difficulty "Mac, you are bleeding on the side!"

"Take the transmitter Adam!" Mac cried.

Adam walked over to Mac and slipped off the transmitter from his belt "We need reinforcements and two ambulances!"

Mac walked into the hallway of the precinct

"Mac what are you doing here?" Jo asked "You should be at home to rest!"

"The wound is less serious than it looks! It has been a long time since someone stabbed me!" Mac said.

Jo inspected Mac’s hip “What about Flack?"

"He's doing better! Jaime was very worried!"

"How long before they’ll resign him?" Jo asked looking at Mac who was trying to settle down his shirt

"I think that on Wednesday he would already be home!" Mac said wincing as soon as Jo took his hand to stop him

"What about that crazy man?"

"He has admitted the murders! Now the mystery of why some statues could not be photographed is revealed! Peyton and Angela are committed to fix everything and Sheldon is helping them, he is kindhearted!"

Mac looked at the quick hands of Jo shove his shirt in his pants.

"Little Cristina?"

Mac smiled "She will stay with Adam! Social workers have given the green light to practices! How were your latest analysis?"

"It’s all right! It's all in the norm!" Jo smiled "Sheldon is constantly worried that something might happen to me and he begs me every day to quit working!"

Mac smiled "I'll talk to him! With Christine it was hard at first even if I didn’t let on it, but since we worked together I know that she's clever and she won’t cruise for a bruising!"

"Sheldon knows how I work! He has been knowing it since four years! Talk to him please!"

"I will!" Mac smiled hugging Jo "Thanks for the shirt!"

"Go to Christine! You have a new sign on the skin to explain!" Jo joked.

Adam opened the door "Here we are! Make yourself comfortable!"

Cristina went into the house and smiled "It's beautiful here! I love it! We'll be just you and me?"

"Yes! Just the two of us!" Adam smiled "Want to see your room?"

"Yes!" Cristina smiled

"Now it's a bit ugly, but it will soon be the bedroom of your dreams!" Adam said guiding her into the anteroom "To thee the honor of opening the door!"

Cristina turned the handle and she found herself in the room with more windows in the house with a single bed in the corner on the right

"I love it! But I want toys and a table to draw!"

"Princess, whatever you want will be accomplished!" Adam said taking her in his arms "And now, will you help me to prepare supper?"

Christine looked at Mac sitting with her at the dinner table

"You're quiet tonight ! Is something wrong?"

"We have arrested the murder of Cristina’s parents and of the guy at the museum! Flack is in the hospital and he will be discharged in a few days and I'm a bit worried, that's all!"

Christine looked at Mac’s hip “What do you have under your shirt?"

"A scratch!"

"How many stitches did they give you ?" Christine asked

"Six! I won’t be able to take a shower tonight which means I'll be in the bathroom for a long time!"

Christine frowned "You can forget it! I need the bathroom too! Where shall I go to do baby changing?"

Mac smiled "We will plan!"

"You will do the shower! Whether you like it or not!" Christine said getting up from the table and taking the kitchen film "That's how you will do!"

"I'll never be able to put it on me alone!"

"I'll help you! Let's go to our room!" Christine took Mac’s hand and she accompanied him all along the way up to the bedroom "Sit down and take off your shirt!"

Mac looked at Christine fix the film on the gauze with insulation tape to then get up and exclaim "I'm going to be with kids! When you'll finish, knock on the door of their room!"

Mac walked over to the antique dresser and took the threads necessary to get changed and he went to turn on water from the shower. He returned to the room with the towel and finished to undress before going back to the bathroom with the towel on his waist and he stepped into the shower.

Two hands rested on his shoulders

"Surprise!"

"Christine?! What are you doing in here? The kids?" Mac asked surprised

"They're sleeping!"

"What if they wake up?" he asked turning toward her

"They will be for ten minutes alone!" Christine smiled "Turn around or I won’t wash your back!"

Mac smiled "Mrs. Taylor, you just cruised for a bruising!" he came up to her and he kissed her

"I remind you that I have also the power to arrest you, Lieutenant!" she said detaching and pulling him with her under the water jet "You have the right to remain silent!" Christine kissed him and hugged him "What do we do next? Shower or..."

Mac was already kissing her neck "In your opinion?" he whispered at her.

Christine smiled "I understand!"

The bathroom door burst open and they both jumped

"Dad!" Christine yelled "What are you doing here?!"

"You don’t answer your phone, you don’t answer the intercom, he doesn’t answer and I got worry about you!" the man yelled.

Mac was visibly embarrassed "Christine, you may get out?"

Christine's father watched Mac in the eyes

"You should be more careful in a few years! The door could be opened by one of the twins!"

Mac looked at the transparent glass of the shower to open up and Christine whispered to him "I'm sorry!"

Flack and Jaime were together at the hospital

"Go home and rest! You do not need to stay here! I’m safe!" Flack tried to convince her

"Don, I'm not going anywhere! You are the most important thing for me! You won’t spend the night alone in this room!"

"I don’t want you to spend it on that chair!" Flack said

"That's ridiculous! Are you worried about how I'll sleep on this chair? I remember you r that they stabbed you! And I..."

"I know you were afraid! I was it too! I thought for a moment that I would never see you again! If Mac had not intervened at this time..."

Jaime put her index finger on his lips

"Don’t even think such a thing! You're alive! That's what counts!"

Flack smiled and looked Jaime rise from the edge of the bed to take a chair by the door. He sighed surrendering himself and Jaime sat on the chair.
