00:00Don't do it.
00:09That one's over-right.
00:11Really? You can tell?
00:12Trust me.
00:14This is the one.
00:16Sweet and firm.
00:19I like sweet.
00:21And I like firm.
00:27What are you drinking?
00:30Toxic waste?
00:31We're doing a cleanse.
00:32And he forgot his bottle, so I came by to drop it off.
00:35Oh, he forgot it. Are you sure?
00:38Actually, I've never felt better my entire life.
00:42Water, lime juice, no solid food.
00:45Jenny and I are going to start our marriage perfectly cleansed.
00:48We've already made it a week. We only have three days to go.
00:50I can't even believe you guys are already getting married on Sunday.
00:53I know. Isn't that crazy?
00:54I better run. My mom is freaking out about place cards.
00:57See you there.
00:58Thanks, sweetie. I love you.
01:00I love you more.
01:00That's not possible.
01:04I know, I know, I know. We're nauseating.
01:12Well, I am looking forward to meeting some of Jenny's sorority sisters.
01:17I'm about to show them some of New York's finest.
01:18Oh, good. Then I guess you won't care that Lainey's bringing a plus one.
01:26Who?
01:27Um, I don't know. She's RSVP'd plus one.
01:29How can, how can she already have a boyfriend? We just broke up.
01:34Don't worry, Espo. I'm going alone. So if the sorority girls don't work out, I'll dance with you.
01:39That's Pacino.
01:43Castle, Jenny tells me that you RSVP'd plus one.
01:45Mm-hmm.
01:46You're bringing a date?
01:47I am.
01:48Who?
01:48Oh, well, she's beautiful. She's intelligent. She's funny. The way she smiles at me sometimes just melts my heart.
01:58Here's Alexis.
02:00Guys, we got a fresh one.
02:02Hey, Lainey, we got a jumper.
02:07Judging by the impact, I'd say he came from one of those windows above the seventh floor.
02:11Ryan and Escozito already in to finding the room with the hotel staff.
02:14So, he's naked.
02:17Perceptive.
02:17Well, it is pretty cold out. If this was a suicide, wouldn't you rather be warm and toasty on your way down to your certain yet citrusy death?
02:24If there were a suicide, would you really have these fingernail marks only an hour old?
02:31Well, it looks like he did the deed before taking the dive.
02:34Last item on your bucket list?
02:36Yo.
02:37Two hotel clerks saw a white lady with long red hair hurrying out shortly after birthday suit hit the fruit.
02:42All right, see if you can get a better description from those clerks and let's set up a canvas. We've got to find that woman.
02:47Antonio, can you refrigerate these samples in the van, please?
02:51Is this the guy?
02:52Hmm?
02:52Mr. Plus One.
02:57Hey, Beckett!
02:59Found the room! Eight floor!
03:02Okay!
03:10Music to set the mood by?
03:12Yeah.
03:14And then there's the lipstick on the pillow.
03:16Looks like Laney was right about our victim getting lucky before he ran out of luck.
03:20So, our victim's name is Michael Bailey, 28, lives on West 93rd Street.
03:24And according to his business card, he's a junior analyst at Global 12 Consolidated in Midtown.
03:29Who booked the room?
03:30Booked under Jane Eyre. Paid with cash, no credit card on file.
03:34Suggests premeditation.
03:35She knew she was going to kill him, so she booked the room anonymously.
03:38Yeah, but then why sleep with him? Why not just push him out the window?
03:41Because she's a black widow.
03:45Coldest hearted creature on earth.
03:46She lures an unsuspecting male, takes him into her web, and then the moment they culminate, as soon as he feels the ecstasy of achieving his biological destiny,
03:56she opens up her jaws and eats him alive.
03:59I'm glad I'm in a healthy relationship.
04:03Yeah.
04:05I bet male black widow spiders think they're in healthy relationships, too.
04:09Well, black widow or not, I think I figured out how we can find her.
04:16Bingo.
04:17Do you have any idea who I am?
04:19I'm a founding partner of Keller, Braun, and Franklin. I'm Franklin.
04:24Okay, well, I don't care about your law firm.
04:25A man fell to his death tonight, and fingerprints confirm that you were at the crime scene.
04:30No, I had nothing to do with it.
04:32Okay, maybe you can tell me why people saw you fleeing the crime scene.
04:37Ms. Franklin, evidence suggests that you and Michael...
04:40Michael Bailey were romantically involved.
04:43Michael who?
04:45This man.
04:47No, that's not Michael. That's Jake. That's Jake Hendricks.
04:51No, that's Michael Bailey.
04:52I think I would know who I was sleeping with.
04:54Well, apparently you don't.
04:57You think I should pull her phone records?
04:59Nah, what's the point?
05:01We already have her at the hotel with her victim.
05:03Not her.
05:05Lainey.
05:06What?
05:07I'm not gonna go to your wedding without knowing who this guy is.
05:11Ginny has to find out for the place cards.
05:13I'll get you his name.
05:15Okay.
05:15He told me his name was Jake.
05:18Um, he said that he flies in from Chicago to make sales calls for his family business.
05:25It was really sweet.
05:28I didn't kill him.
05:29I was falling in love with him.
05:31Well, he fell pretty hard, too.
05:33So, how long were the two of you dating?
05:34Uh, well, we, uh, we actually just met tonight, um, at Wilmer's bar at around seven.
05:44Tonight?
05:45And you were already falling in love with him?
05:48Look, I, I know, I know it sounds crazy, but it felt like one of those magical connections that you read about, you know?
05:54So, after we, you know, um, he started to get dizzy and sweaty, so he opened up a window to get some fresh air, and he was leaning against the windowsill, when suddenly, he just...
06:13Okay, so, you're saying that he fell out the window, and your first instinct wasn't to call 911, but to run away?
06:29I knew how it would look, but I panicked, and I made a really bad decision, but I swear, it was an accident.
06:36It was not an accident.
06:38You can tell he was pushed?
06:39I didn't say he was pushed. Michael Bailey was poisoned with a lethal dose of colchicine. He was dead before he hit the fruit.
06:46Colchicine? Isn't that a drug for rheumatism?
06:48Yes, which Bailey does not have, but he had 50 times the normal dosage in his system.
06:53I'm putting the time of ingestion between 4 and 6 p.m.
06:56Which is 45 minutes before Holly said she met him at Wilmer's bar.
07:00Any idea how that drug was delivered?
07:02It was in something he drank. I found lots of whey protein isolate in his stomach, along with chocolate.
07:07So, a chocolate protein shake.
07:08It'd be sweet enough to mask the taste of the drug.
07:11Speaking of sweet, who should date for Ryan's wedding?
07:15Take a shot.
07:16All right, thanks, Lainey.
07:17One more thing. I ran a DNA test just to confirm that Superman here had sex before dying.
07:22No, it's okay. Our suspect...
07:23Let me finish. The test shows he had sex all right with two different women within hours of his death.
07:31You dog.
07:33Miss Franklin, it seems that you weren't the only woman that Mr. Bailey was with in the hours prior to his death.
07:45Um, what do you mean, with?
07:48Was there another woman in the hotel room with you?
07:52I didn't think this could get any more humiliating.
07:55Is that a yes?
07:55No, detective.
07:57Oh, and you should know that our M.E. has been able to determine that Mr. Bailey was, uh, wearing a condom both times, so that's...
08:06That makes it all better.
08:08Oh, I wish I pushed him!
08:14Hell hath no fury, all right, but I'm pretty sure she's telling the truth.
08:17Yeah, maybe, but let's just confirm her alibi before releasing her.
08:20In the meantime, we need to figure out where Bailey was and who he was with between 4 and 6 p.m. when he was poisoned.
08:26Exactly. That is our kill zone.
08:28Hey, so I can't find any next of kin on the guy. Parents died years ago. There's no siblings, no nothing.
08:38You okay?
08:41Fine.
08:42So then everything Bailey told Holly about himself was a lie.
08:46Maybe that was a stick. In from out of town, family guy, own business. That's how we got women in bed.
08:51Whatever his reason for lying to Holly, I'm betting that our killer is whoever Bailey slept with earlier in the day.
08:56She got onto his philandering and got even.
08:58All right, go through his phone records. We gotta find that other woman.
09:02Good morning, Dad.
09:07Good morning.
09:09Darling, where's your credit card?
09:12I'd good morning better.
09:14Let me ask you to do something.
09:16If you found out a man was cheating on you, how would you kill him?
09:21Knife to the heart.
09:23All right, what if you don't have the stomach for that?
09:24Shoot him.
09:25You don't have the stomach for that either.
09:27What's wrong with our stomachs?
09:28There's always poison.
09:29True, watch him writhe and suffer.
09:31Die like the rodent he is.
09:32Wow.
09:33All these years writing about murderers, I had no idea I was living among them.
09:38Speaking of murder, what's the credit card for it?
09:41Oh, we're going shopping to pick up my dress to be your date at Ryan's wedding.
09:45What's wrong with the ones you have?
09:46Darling, beauty does not happen by accident.
09:50And that's why when it goes unappreciated by cheating scum, we want revenge.
09:54Even their hypothetical fury is unnerving.
10:02William Congreve had it right when he talked about scorned women.
10:04Yeah, well, you haven't heard what I would do.
10:06Yeah, I don't think I ever want to know.
10:08Hey, guys, any luck tracking down Bailey's other woman?
10:11Ah, a lot of luck.
10:19This is the beginning of The Bachelor, but without the Appletinis.
10:22Bailey's was involved with all of them?
10:26Ah, yeah.
10:28And each of them thought that they were his one and only.
10:31That's a lot of scorned women.
10:35And a lot of fury.
10:43Yeah, yeah, I don't get it.
10:45How does an average-looking guy with a dime-a-dozen analyst job end up dating all of these gorgeous women?
10:51By lying to them.
10:52Actually, he wasn't lying to these women, at least not about who he was, anyway.
10:56They all knew him by his real name.
10:57Then why would he tell Holly that he's Jake from Chicago?
10:59Was Bailey with any of those women between four and six yesterday?
11:03So far, no.
11:03But they all deny knowing that he was even in the city.
11:06A month ago, he told every one of them he was going to Europe for six weeks.
11:09A month ago?
11:10So why'd he come back early?
11:11He never went.
11:12And as far as I can tell from his credit card use, he never even left New York.
11:16So why tell them that he was leaving?
11:18I mean, was that just a cowardly way of breaking up with them?
11:20I think there's something else going on.
11:22I called the personnel department at Global 12 Consolidated, and they said that he's been on leave of absence for the last month.
11:27That's a big month, taking a leave from work and your girlfriends.
11:31And his apartment.
11:34Dorman at Bailey's building said that for the past month, he's only spent a couple nights a week there.
11:38Past month?
11:39Yeah, he wasn't there at all yesterday, so that's not where he was poisoned.
11:44And I looked in his dresser, and I found this.
11:48Illinois driver's license.
11:49Jake Hendricks, Chicago.
11:51That's the name that he gave Holly.
11:53So he is Jake Hendricks?
11:55No, he's Mike Bailey.
11:56That's a fake.
11:57He did not buy this on some street corner.
11:59This is government grade.
12:00Yeah, right down to the security hologram.
12:02It's like he was living undercover.
12:04And I found this.
12:05That's a lot of cake.
12:06Why do you have to call it cake?
12:07It's money.
12:08It's a lot of money.
12:09It's about 60 grand.
12:10Cash, fake ID.
12:12What the hell was Bailey into?
12:14Something bigger than lying about who he was just to get laid.
12:18Jake Hendricks has fake web search hits.
12:21Lives in Chicago.
12:22Works for the family business.
12:23Just like he told Holly Franklin.
12:25Mm-hmm.
12:25Family business has a fake website.
12:27That's a pretty deep cover.
12:29Yeah.
12:30Our Don Juan's starting to look more like Jason Bourne.
12:32All right, you guys get a hold of FBI and CIA and any other intelligence agency.
12:36See if he's one of theirs.
12:37Come on, Kessel.
12:37Let's talk to Bailey's boss at Global 12 Consolidated.
12:40Find out why our Vic took that leave of absence.
12:43We still need the estimates on Thorium in India.
12:46And I would appreciate...
12:47Excuse me, Mr. Harris?
12:49Those detectives are here for you?
12:53You guys mind if we take a few minutes?
12:55No problem.
12:56We're still working up the financing terms on subordinated debt anyway.
12:59Sure.
13:00It's not like these negotiations are going anywhere.
13:04Mike was a junior analyst in our acquisition department.
13:07He was a good kid.
13:08Bright future.
13:10I understand that he took a leave of absence a month ago.
13:13Did he give you a reason why?
13:14Personal issues.
13:16He didn't say why, but I could tell it was serious.
13:18So you have no idea why he would have a fake ID and $60,000 cash?
13:24No.
13:24Well, maybe it had something to do with that woman that tried to break in his office yesterday.
13:29Who was that?
13:30I don't know.
13:31She was gone before security got there.
13:32And who reported it?
13:33I had stepped out of negotiations to go to the restroom.
13:37And in the hallway, I noticed a woman was trying to pick an office door lock using a wrench and an opened-up paperclip.
13:43I assumed she had just locked herself out of her office and joked that a key would work better.
13:47Well, she was startled and shoved me over and made a dash for the stairwell.
13:52Did you get a good look at her?
13:54Yeah.
13:54And I told security.
13:55She was exotic, 30-ish, dark, wavy hair.
13:59She had on an overcoat, but it was open.
14:01And she was wearing a pin with the Star of David on it.
14:03But I'm pretty sure it's the insignia from L.L. Airlines.
14:07Name's Colette Roth.
14:10She's 27.
14:11She's been an L.L. flight attendant for three years, making the Tel Aviv JFK run twice a week.
14:15Intel agencies used to use flight attendants as spies, didn't they?
14:18Yeah, and get this.
14:19She's former Israeli military.
14:21Mossad is famous for poisoning.
14:22Yeah, big time.
14:23Castle may not be that far off with the Jason Bourne theory.
14:26Uniforms are tracking her down now.
14:28Ah, Jenny just texted me Laney's plus one.
14:31Name is Toby Lang.
14:33What?
14:34Toby?
14:35All right.
14:37Let's check this punk out.
14:41Doctor?
14:42Toby Lang?
14:43Guy's the chief administrator at St. Samuel's Hospital.
14:46Big job.
14:48Laney did a residency there, didn't she?
14:50Yeah.
14:50Good-looking guy.
14:53Played college hoops at Kentucky.
14:55Groundbreaking cancer researcher?
14:56Are you kidding me?
14:58Put me down for plus one.
14:59Jenny already did the tables.
15:00What about her sorority sisters?
15:04Dude, I'm not showing up solo when she's bringing Captain America over here.
15:08Okay.
15:09I'll talk to Jenny, but her mom is going to need a name for that place card.
15:13Esposito.
15:16Copy that.
15:18Colette Roth just checked in for a flight at JFK.
15:21You news are picking her up now.
15:22I'm not a spy.
15:25I'm a flight attendant.
15:27Well, maybe you can explain your relationship with Michael Bailey.
15:31We were soulmates.
15:32Well, then, I'm sure you'll be able to tell us where the two of you were yesterday between the hours of 4 and 6 p.m.
15:38I was outside his apartment waiting for him, but he never came.
15:42You had a very busy day yesterday.
15:44You were seen trying to break into his office just hours before that.
15:49I was hoping to find some kind of clue.
15:53Something that might lead me to his enemies.
15:55His enemies?
15:56Michael was a hunted man.
15:58Hunted?
15:59By whom?
16:00I don't know.
16:01I just know he was in trouble.
16:03Four weeks ago, he said he was going to Europe.
16:06But I kept seeing him in the city.
16:08And he kept pretending not to notice me.
16:10So I staked out his apartment.
16:12So you stalked him?
16:13Staked?
16:14Stoked?
16:14What's the difference?
16:15I was looking out for him.
16:17But he wasn't coming home.
16:19Then a few days ago, I finally confronted him.
16:21He said he couldn't talk, but he told me to meet him the next day, and he'd explain everything.
16:27Let me guess.
16:28That was the last time you saw him?
16:29No, we met the next day.
16:31But before he could tell me what was going on, this car came out of nowhere, and they were on us.
16:37Who?
16:38Rovians in ski masks.
16:40They grabbed him and threw him in the back.
16:42I fought with all of my strength, but it was in vain.
16:46Bet you did.
16:47Did you report this?
16:50No.
16:51They said they'd kill him if I did.
16:52That's why I was trying to find him the next day, to see if they'd let him go.
16:57But they killed him.
16:58The Rovians killed him.
17:01Mm-hmm.
17:02And where did this all happen?
17:04On the street, for all to see.
17:07Okay.
17:08Corner of Washington and Greenwich.
17:10ATM cam.
17:11This is where Colette said the abduction went down, but I've been over it, and there's nothing.
17:16All right.
17:16Unless you guys are enjoying the Warhol-esque quality of this, we can just shut it down.
17:21I'm going to go ahead and check on Esposito, see where he's at with Colette's alibi.
17:24Wait.
17:26There's Bailey.
17:28And here comes Colette.
17:31Seriously.
17:34Whoa.
17:35Ruffians in ski masks.
17:41You gotta be kidding me.
17:43Oh.
17:44Looks like Colette just broke that ruffian's nose.
17:49Fake ID.
17:51Bricks of cash.
17:53Brazen of production.
17:56He really was Jason Bourne.
17:57You gotta be kidding me.
18:01Can't you see it?
18:03Bailey is in covert ops.
18:05They placed him at a giant multinational company, Global 12 Consolidated, as a cover.
18:09Then, a month ago, they activated him.
18:11They give him an alias.
18:13You know, a backstory.
18:14They give him unlimited walking around money.
18:16And then, somehow, the enemy gets to him.
18:20They grab him off the streets.
18:22He manages to escape, so the exploit is Achilles' heel.
18:25His love of beautiful women.
18:28They send in a super sexy secret agent.
18:32She seduces him.
18:33And then, kills him by feeding him a poison protein shake.
18:39I can't think of anything better.
18:43Beckett.
18:46Really?
18:48Okay.
18:49The CIA, the FBI, and the DHS have never heard of Bailey or his alias.
18:56Do you really think they'd tell you if they did?
18:58Hey, Tech just got the plate number off the kidnapper's car.
19:01I thought that the plates weren't visible on the ATM footage.
19:03Ah, they weren't.
19:04But I found a traffic cam up the block where they were.
19:07Car is registered to a Pablo Barnes 28 insurance salesman.
19:10That's probably a cover, too.
19:11Did you get an address?
19:12Sure did.
19:13All right, let's go.
19:15Where's Espa?
19:16In the break room, trying to score his plus one.
19:19Espa, let's go.
19:24Sorry.
19:25I gotta go.
19:25I gotta go.
19:29I was this close to getting my plus one.
19:31Hey, relax, man.
19:32Happens to a lot of guys.
19:34Get a little excited, lose control of your steamer.
19:40NYPD!
19:40NYPD!
19:41NYPD!
19:43Hey, please!
19:45What the hell, Pablo?
19:46Pablo Barnes?
19:47Yeah, yeah, yeah.
19:48Please, don't shoot.
19:48I don't know what you're doing here, but we didn't do anything.
19:50Broken nose.
19:51Other masked men.
19:52Espo, get him, too.
19:54Turn around!
19:56Seriously, I don't know why you guys have the wrong piece.
19:59Alistair, it's very...
20:01Ow!
20:03Hey.
20:04Bolero.
20:07Just like in the hotel.
20:08See?
20:09I told you we were a badass.
20:11Awesome.
20:15That's your car, Pablo.
20:17What were you and Bailey up to, and why did you kill him?
20:20Wait, are you telling me Mike's dead?
20:23Cut the act, Pablo.
20:24We know you kidnapped him two days ago.
20:25Why?
20:25No, no, no.
20:26It's not what it looks like.
20:27It's an extortion.
20:29Extong a what?
20:30Mike's her buddy.
20:32He got involved with this crazy stalker chick.
20:34Collette something.
20:35So we staged an abduction to scare her off.
20:38We call it an extortion.
20:39Are you saying Bailey was in on it?
20:41Yeah.
20:42The three of us are a crew.
20:43What kind of crew?
20:44Special forces.
20:45Private military contractors.
20:47We're pickup artists.
20:49As in picking up women.
20:51Mm-hmm.
20:52You?
20:53We dedicate our lives to picking up as many hot women as possible.
20:57We spend all of Bailey's women.
20:59Those girls at the apartment, we're pretty hot.
21:01Yeah.
21:03That music that was playing, is that part of your seduction strategy?
21:07Oh, yeah.
21:08Bolero increases the chance of closing the deal by 12%.
21:11Okay, assuming that you were telling the truth, you were with Mike the night before he was killed.
21:15Did he tell you what he was up to?
21:16Nah, he was being all secretive.
21:18I mean, he stopped hanging out with us, like, a month ago.
21:21Really?
21:21A month?
21:22Yeah, when he called about the extortion a couple days ago, that was the first time we've heard from him since then.
21:27So when he said he was going on after the extortion, naturally, we followed him.
21:30Where'd he go?
21:31Mike, this is totally lame bar.
21:33The magic bottle.
21:34I mean, not target rich at all.
21:36No, and when he found us there, he kind of freaked.
21:39But he agreed to let us stay and be his wingman, but only if we referred to him as Jake.
21:45Like, he was undercover.
21:46Jake, that's the same identity he gave to Holly Franklin the next day.
21:50So we do our usual couple laps of recon.
21:52Actually, some pretty decent milfs.
21:54And I think Mike's just expanding his palate, right?
21:57But he wasn't interested in any of them.
21:59No, instead, he finds this one mark, like, ugh, nothing special, and plants his flag.
22:05Then I see that she's got a ring on her finger.
22:07She's a married chick.
22:09We stay away from married chicks.
22:11Because you're so ethical.
22:13No, they're just trouble.
22:14But he doesn't care.
22:16He's all in on her.
22:17So you think he went to this bar for this particular woman, like he was targeting her?
22:21Exactly.
22:22Did he say why?
22:24No.
22:24But he was working her like his life depended on it.
22:27I mean, it was like he was on a mission.
22:29Did she go for him?
22:30Nah, total red light.
22:31Boop, boop, boop.
22:32Dates down, trains come in, time to move on.
22:34But not Mike.
22:36Not on this night.
22:37So what do you do?
22:38He counters with some authorizing.
22:41Authorizing, huh?
22:42You know, making it seem like the last thing on his mind is hooking up.
22:44Nah.
22:44He just finds her interesting and wants to talk.
22:48But she doesn't bite.
22:49So he tries an M-swig.
22:50Tells her he knows this girl who's cheating on his friend should he tell his friend.
22:53Because women love to give advice.
22:55But she's still giving him the Heisman.
22:56So he tries a butter job.
22:59A butter job?
22:59What's that?
23:00It's when you flirt with the Mark's friend.
23:02And that's when he started getting traction.
23:04Immediately follows with a yank and chain reversal.
23:06Sees he's got her on the hook.
23:07So he goes right for the Bailey ultimatum.
23:09Boom.
23:10Signature move.
23:11Says he has to leave.
23:13Forcing the Mark to make a quick decision whether to go with you or not.
23:18And what you do?
23:19Next thing you know, two of them are walking on their way out of there.
23:23You know, you have some beautiful eyes.
23:29Seriously?
23:30What?
23:30It's a numbers game.
23:31I strike out 90% of the time.
23:33That's restoring my faith in my gender.
23:35So this Mark that he was working, does she have a name?
23:39Lisa.
23:39The greatest pickup I have ever seen.
23:44It's a damn shame she'll never make it into Mike's ledger.
23:48What ledger?
23:49It's literally hundreds of women that Bailey slept with.
23:53Versary claims.
23:54Seems legit to me.
23:56Most of these shots are pretty racy.
23:58All with nicknames and dates.
24:00June 9, 2010.
24:01And Carnal Carey.
24:03June 12, 2010.
24:05Mesmerizing Marjan.
24:06A little sorry.
24:07Is there a Lisa in there from two days ago?
24:09Uh, no.
24:10The last entry was over a month ago.
24:12So Pablo was right.
24:12She didn't make it in.
24:14We got to find Lisa.
24:15She could be our other woman.
24:16Hey, so our friends Max and Pablo just alibied out.
24:19They were both at work when Mike was poisoned.
24:21Limber Lucy.
24:23And boy, is she ever.
24:24I don't know what this dude Bailey was into, but whatever it is, he had it going on.
24:28Really?
24:29This impresses you?
24:30These women are pathetic for falling for this guy.
24:32And Bailey, Bailey was just a con man and a liar.
24:36At least there is one real man amongst us.
24:39Ryan, why don't you take the situation down to the magic bottle and see if we can get an ID on Lisa.
24:43And find out why Bailey might have been targeting her.
24:50When exactly did Ryan and Jenny start dating?
24:52I think it was around 2009.
24:56She got him that ugly tie for their two-week anniversary.
24:58So, like, Easter, April.
25:00Meaning, by May 2009, they've been dating a month.
25:05Yeah.
25:05Why?
25:08Bailey's May 20, 2009 entry.
25:13Oh, my gosh.
25:14That's Jenny.
25:15Not just Jenny.
25:17J-waiting Jenny.
25:18Yeah, I recognize him.
25:23In here with a couple of friends two nights ago.
25:25Those friends told us that he left with a woman.
25:27Lisa.
25:28Do you know her?
25:29Yeah.
25:29She's a regular.
25:30Does she have a last name?
25:31Give me a sec.
25:34I think I like this place, partner.
25:37Dude, you're a cop.
25:39This is a midtown bar.
25:40Women here.
25:41They're looking for lawyers and bankers.
25:43I bank.
25:45Well, you are on your own.
25:47I'm getting married on Sunday.
25:48Exactly.
25:49So, this is your last chance to be my wingman.
25:51Help me get a plus one.
25:52I think I'm going to try an M-Swig.
25:56You can't be serious.
25:58What do you think?
25:59A butter job?
26:00I checked credit card slips from the other night.
26:03Her name's Lisa Hill.
26:05Lisa Hill.
26:07So, not only is Lisa Hill married,
26:09she is also an heiress.
26:11Daughter to Stephanie Dashby.
26:13Of Dashby Publishing?
26:16Which puts her in Forbes' top 400.
26:19Bailey was hunting big game.
26:21He knew he couldn't close the deal as a junior analyst.
26:23That's why he used the alias with her.
26:24Same way he used it with big shot lawyer Holly Franklin.
26:27Yeah, well, according to her maid,
26:28Lisa Hill packed up and left her apartment
26:30for her house in Montauk at 6.30 p.m.
26:33Half an hour after our kill zone.
26:35Plus, she also had easy access to our poison.
26:37Her sister owns a drug company that manufactures it.
26:40This is about the money.
26:42Bailey only used the Jake identity with Holly and Lisa.
26:44They're both rich.
26:45So, what do you think, an extortion plot?
26:47Bricks of cash, probably from previous successes.
26:49He targets wealthy women,
26:51tries to put them in compromising situations.
26:53And then makes them pay their way out.
26:54Except Lisa Hill wouldn't pay.
26:56We need to get her in here.
26:57And we will.
26:58First thing in the morning.
26:59So, what are we going to do?
27:04About what?
27:05Well, we have to tell Ryan about Ginny.
27:07What?
27:08Why?
27:09Castle, if we were getting married,
27:10would you want to know about all the guys that I've slept with?
27:12All?
27:14Seriously.
27:14You sign women's chests at book readings.
27:17You cannot be shocked that I'm not a virgin.
27:19It's just the word all suggests a lot.
27:24How many are we talking, exactly?
27:28Are you really asking for my number?
27:31You show me yours, I'll show you mine.
27:35Men, you all want to know, but you don't want to know.
27:39Listen, every woman has her secrets, including Jenny.
27:42And sometimes, for the sake of a relationship,
27:45it is better not to share.
27:46Wow, that is some dress.
27:58Isn't she stunning?
28:00After striking out all day, we finally tried JDFs on Madison.
28:04And boy, did we score.
28:07That sounds like it's about more than just a dress.
28:09Well, not only did Alexis find this exquisite little number,
28:12we were completely charmed by the proprietor,
28:15John Danton Farnsworth.
28:17JDF.
28:17So, as we're paying, Mr. Farnsworth is about to close up
28:20when his grandson, John Danton Farnsworth III,
28:24picked him up for dinner.
28:25Goes by JD.
28:26So cute.
28:27Oh, he is a lovely young man.
28:30Freshman at Columbia.
28:31Which I'm applying to, so of course I grilled him about it.
28:33And the next thing you know,
28:34they invite us to join them for dinner.
28:38So, who was the wingman?
28:40The grandpa or the kid?
28:41The what?
28:42Dad.
28:44They were total gentlemen.
28:45They even invited us to their family's annual charity event,
28:48a private concert with Lady Gaga.
28:50Oh.
28:51But it's the same time as the wedding.
28:53Oh.
28:54I know, I promise.
28:55And of course, I'll go if you want me to.
28:56It's just, this is the first time I've felt this way since Ashley.
29:00You don't have to go to the wedding.
29:02You are released from your plus-one duties.
29:04Thanks, Dad.
29:05Which I guess means you don't need this dress.
29:06Don't be silly, darling.
29:07It is a black tie benefit.
29:09And after dinner, John opened the shop.
29:12And I got one, too.
29:16So it's a win-win.
29:18I can't believe you bailed on me.
29:20We were there until 2.30 in the morning.
29:22Yeah, it was five minutes from sealing the deal with my plus-one.
29:24You really think after standing for three hours,
29:26another five minutes of me standing there would have made any difference?
29:28Yeah, she was into me.
29:29She said that she thought solving murders was cute.
29:32Oh, you didn't have to tell her friend you were engaged.
29:34Oh, no, no.
29:35You're right.
29:35I could have totally just lied to her and hooked up with her.
29:40And do you have to be such a cliche?
29:41Stuff in your face with that, that, that, that thing?
29:45Hey, don't touch my donut.
29:46Hey!
29:46Hey, hey, hey!
29:51Break it!
29:52Guy, what the hell's going on?
29:54Talk to hunger strike over here.
29:55He was flaunting that donut.
29:56I was eating it.
29:57Ryan, you okay?
29:59Cleanse for nine days.
30:01Don't you think it's time to let it go?
30:02No, no, no.
30:03I'm fine.
30:04I'm sorry, everybody.
30:05Sorry, bro.
30:07So, any luck finding Lisa Hill?
30:09Yeah, we tracked her down at a spine, Montauk.
30:11Yeah, she's going from mud wrap to murder wrap.
30:14Exfoliation to interrogation.
30:16Manicure to manacles.
30:18Shiatsu to...
30:21Shiatsu.
30:26Unis are on their way to pick her up now.
30:29Do you recognize him, Ms. Hill?
30:31Yes, it's Jake.
30:34Yes, Jake Hendricks.
30:36Or so you thought until you found out his real name was Michael Bailey
30:39and he was trying to blackmail you, isn't that right?
30:44Blackmail?
30:45I don't know what you're talking about.
30:48I think you do.
30:49You realized that you had been played and you decided to take your revenge.
30:53Your sister owns a drug company?
30:57She must have given you the colchicine you used to poison him, didn't she?
31:00No.
31:01Look, I didn't get revenge because I never knew what he was up to.
31:05But he was up to something.
31:07I should have realized when he was hitting on me so hard at the bar,
31:09but he was cute and my husband is more interested in work than actually living.
31:13So I brought him home and it was nice.
31:17But then I came out of the bathroom and caught him on the computer.
31:20I figured he was trying to steal credit cards, banking info, so I kicked his ass out.
31:25But I swear that was the last time I saw him.
31:28Oh, yeah.
31:30Bailey sent an email, all right, to himself.
31:32Why would he email himself?
31:34Because he attached several documents from Hill's computer.
31:36What kind of documents?
31:37Confidential ones, relating to KPW Mining Corporation.
31:41Lisa Hill's husband, Ron Hill, is the investment banker representing KPW on the possible sale of the company.
31:48That's Lisa Hill's husband?
31:50We saw him at the Global 12 offices.
31:52Yep, and Ron Hill is representing KPW.
31:54It's a multi-billion dollar deal.
31:56So Bailey was engaged in covert ops.
31:58He targeted Ron Hill's wife, Lisa, slept with her in order to steal KPW corporate secrets.
32:03That's espionage.
32:04More like sex pionage.
32:07More like motive.
32:11So Bailey was using his pickup artist skills to sleep with Ron Hill's wife and steal corporate secrets.
32:18Man, there's a penetrating enemy lines joke here somewhere.
32:22You know, Ron must have hit the roof when he discovered that those files were stolen.
32:26Well, sure.
32:27Ron got screwed on the deal.
32:28And his wife got screwed.
32:30But if anybody ever had a motive for murder, it was Ron Hill.
32:32Yeah, except he was in negotiations during the poisoning kill zone and his wife Lisa alibied, too.
32:37And I've been looking at the KPW deal.
32:39Turns out that they're represented by Keller, Braun, and Franklin.
32:42Guess who their lead attorney is?
32:43Holly Franklin?
32:44Yep, Miss No-Tel Hotel herself.
32:46The only reason you guys didn't run into her at Global 12 Consolidated is that we're still holding her.
32:50That explains the Lisa and Holly connection.
32:52Yeah, but it begs the question.
32:53How many other women did Bailey target in this little sexpionage scheme?
32:58All right, you guys get a list of all the people at KPW that were working the sale, including the banking and legal teams.
33:04There's no way that Bailey was working this alone.
33:07He's too junior.
33:09And besides, he was on leave.
33:13And who authorized the leave?
33:16Yes, I authorized his leave.
33:18You gave him a fake ID and cash bonuses, Mr. Harris.
33:21And I've already told you I don't know anything about that.
33:22Okay, well, how about this?
33:24Bailey slept with Holly Franklin and Ron Hill's wife, Lisa, to steal KPW's secrets for your negotiation.
33:29Did you know about that?
33:31Oh, come on, Harris.
33:33This couldn't be Bailey's idea.
33:35You're his boss.
33:36And you're Global 12 Consolidated's lead negotiator for the KPW deal.
33:41So, how did it start?
33:44Did you happen to see Bailey out one night at some bar, working his magic,
33:49and realize that you could use his ability to your advantage?
33:52This is nothing but wild speculation.
33:55You have no proof whatsoever of any wrongdoing on my part or Global 12.
33:59Look, I don't care about corporate malfeasance.
34:01I want Michael Bailey's killer.
34:03And how do you think I can help?
34:05You tell me where he's been staying for the past month.
34:07Tell me who else was targeted and who he was with the day that he was killed.
34:10Unless you're actually going to charge me with something.
34:19I'm leaving.
34:19There are more than 300 female executives at KPW.
34:29Bailey could have targeted any one of them.
34:31Not to mention all the women at the law firm and the investment bank were also working on the deal.
34:35And we still have no idea where he was poisoned.
34:37Hang on a look?
34:38No.
34:39There's too big a pool of possible marks that Bailey could have slept with.
34:42Yeah, uh, speaking of that, you know, Ryan's my boy.
34:50So I gotta tell him about Jenny and Bailey.
34:53You only told me I couldn't tell Ryan.
34:57Look, Espo, I appreciate your point of view, but the guy hasn't eaten in a week and a half.
35:02And after that donut incident, I don't...
35:04Let's take this back to my desk.
35:14See ya, I'm wrong.
35:16What?
35:18What?
35:21Why do you guys look so serious?
35:23You should eat something.
35:25Yeah.
35:25You look hungry.
35:27You've got the posture of a feral cat.
35:29Guys, I made a sacred vow to the woman I love.
35:31Is that mooshy pork?
35:32Yes.
35:33No, it is delicious.
35:34Come on, bro.
35:35Just eat.
35:40Mmm.
35:41I'm gonna taste my smoothie pork.
35:42Come on!
35:43Right?
35:44Pass the spring rolls, please.
35:45Yeah.
35:47So, you know how we all love Jenny, right?
35:51Yeah, what about her?
35:52Well, it's just that, uh, that ledger with Bailey's.
35:56Hey, is she in that?
35:57I've been meaning to ask, but I have been having these memory lapses.
36:01Mmm.
36:01You have some fried rice?
36:02Yeah.
36:02So you've known all along?
36:05No, I was telling Jenny about Harvey's antics last night, and we got to talking about the
36:10case.
36:11She told me that she met Bailey at a bar a month or so after we started out.
36:15She told you about that?
36:16Yeah.
36:17She had no idea that he was some kind of professional pickup artist.
36:20And you're not upset at all?
36:21I am.
36:22Um, it's not like we were exclusive.
36:25Hmm.
36:26Is that Mongolian beef?
36:27Oh, man.
36:30Here you go.
36:30Oh.
36:31Thanks, Di.
36:32Oh.
36:33Get this.
36:34So, I've been trying to figure out where else Bailey might have been staying for the past
36:37month, and when we got onto his corporate spying for Global 12 Consolidated, I looked
36:42into their corporate housing.
36:43That's a great idea.
36:45Yeah.
36:45Why didn't I think of that?
36:46It turns out Mike Bailey has been checked into the Oaks on Park Avenue for the last month
36:50under his alias, Jake Hendricks.
36:52Well, what are you sitting around for?
36:56Do you mind if I take a spare?
36:59You're welcome to look, but we got the call yesterday.
37:02Mr. Hendricks wasn't coming back.
37:03What'd you do with all his stuff?
37:04Per his company's instructions, we gave his clothes and personal belongings to Goodwill,
37:08and the place has been scrubbed, bedding laundered.
37:16Hey, Javier, check this out.
37:25Chocolate blast.
37:27It's a protein shake.
37:29Made with whey protein isolate.
37:32You always stock this drink?
37:34Yeah, it's all standard.
37:35It's exactly what Laney said that Bailey had in the system that delivered the culture scene.
37:39This is where he was poisoned, bro.
37:43Looks like we found the murder weapon.
37:44Laney says that the chocolate shake from the Oaks is a perfect match for the contents of Bailey's stomach.
37:50It's what delivered the lethal dose of colchicine.
37:52Yo, so the doorman at the Oaks confirms that Bailey was there during the whole poison time window.
37:57He asked not to be disturbed.
37:58Yeah, I bet.
38:00Because sexpionage can be so much more demanding than espionage.
38:03So I'm guessing he had a visitor?
38:05Yep.
38:06Someone would have been there a few times before.
38:08Security cam photo capture.
38:11Look familiar.
38:11Look familiar.
38:14If we could focus on the third quarter, I believe that would be the most productive way to move forward.
38:21Excuse me.
38:22Sorry to interrupt again.
38:25What's up, Seth?
38:27Nothing.
38:28Nothing at all.
38:29Look, Detective, I have already told you everything that I know about Michael Bailey.
38:32Now, please leave.
38:36Actually, we're not here for you, Mr. Harris.
38:39Well, that would be the SEC soon.
38:42Today, we are here for a woman.
38:46Someone who works for KPW and also knew Michael Bailey.
38:50Your COO, Amy Kemp.
38:53You're under arrest for the murder of Michael Bailey.
38:57Pleasure doing business with you, Seth.
39:02Let's go.
39:04She said killing him was just business.
39:07He had to die to protect the corporate secrets.
39:09Yeah, I guess the fact that he won't be around to dupe other women was an added benefit.
39:13Bailey worked her like all the other women.
39:15Made her feel special.
39:17Got her to fall for him.
39:18But somewhere along the way, she figured out what he was up to.
39:21I'm just glad I'm out of the game.
39:24The games are only beginning for you, my friend.
39:27Hey, so what's up with your plus one?
39:30It's all.
39:32That's all I'm saying.
39:38Lady.
39:39Hey.
39:40Hello, Javier.
39:42This is Toby.
39:44Pleased to meet you.
39:45Yeah, you too.
39:47This is Jody.
39:49Nice to meet you.
39:50Pleasure.
39:52Excuse me, I need to find the ladies room.
39:53Okay.
39:57You two talk.
39:59I'll get a seat.
40:00Thank you, Toby.
40:04Toby, huh?
40:05What do you mean, Toby, huh?
40:06I don't know.
40:07You tell me.
40:08You and I broke up two months ago, so unless you thought I'd join the convent, you need to take a step back.
40:13So you're too serious now?
40:14Yeah, we're serious.
40:16About dancing.
40:17Toby, that's why his boyfriend let me borrow him.
40:19Besides, I figured I'd need somebody to keep me company while you flirted with all of Jenny's sorority sisters.
40:24Toby's boyfriend?
40:25And I seem to recall you here with the Center for the New York Liberty.
40:31She's my cousin.
40:32I heard you were coming with a date, so I thought I had to have somebody...
40:36You look great, you know.
40:40Yeah, I know.
40:44Can I show you to your seat?
40:46That would be nice.
40:47Will you be...
40:56Yes.
40:58You look like a lost puppy.
41:00Where's your date?
41:01At a Lady Gaga concert with a teenage boy.
41:03How do I compete with that?
41:04Oh, no.
41:05I'm sorry.
41:06Yeah, me too.
41:07I hate going to weddings alone.
41:09Well, maybe we could be each other's plus one.
41:11Yeah.
41:12And then avoid the stigma of sitting at the singles table.
41:15Yes, that would be nice.
41:16I would like...
41:17Oh, look at him.
41:20He looks so happy.
41:21Hey.
41:23I'm so glad you're here.
41:24Where else are we going to be?
41:25You look fantastic.
41:27You clean up pretty nice, huh?
41:31Oh, Jenny, you look amazing.
41:34Thank you, Rick.
41:36No.
41:36No, no, no, no, no.
41:37You can't see her.
41:39Kevin, you are a lucky man.
41:42Don't I know it.
41:44Ready, bro?
41:44I think so.
41:46Okay, we're going to see you in there.
41:48Okay.
41:51You know, I've got to say, I kind of envy him.
41:56Well, who knows, Castle.
41:57Maybe third time's a charm.
41:59Yeah.
42:00Could be.
42:02Shall we?
42:03Yeah.
42:05Oh.
42:05I love you.
