Plot
| "He loves you. I mean, he can't say it right now. Hell, he probably couldn't say it even if he was awake, but he does." — Paige to Holmes
|
| Two young men, Arnold and Tremaine, are spraying graffiti on a wall and hear a car crash. They find a man lying on the pavement. Arnold leaves, but despite risking arrest for the graffiti, Tremaine calls 911 after noticing gunshot wounds on the man, who is Captain Gregson. At the 11th Precinct, Detective Bell questions Tremaine and excuses himself when he sees that Watson has arrived from London. Reporting that Tremaine had nothing to tell him that wasn't in the police report, Bell also says that Gregson is still in critical condition. Watson offers to join investigating who shot Gregson. Returning to The Brownstone, Watson finds it empty and none of the utilities working. Although prohibited from being in the US, Holmes has accompanied Watson and she indicates that Bell didn't suspect Holmes came with her from London.

| While discussing getting furniture and the utilities working, Watson indicates that police believe Gregson was driving home from the precinct, exited his car, was shot in the back and stomach, before driving away and crashing. Notified by Paige that she can see Gregson in the hospital, Watson cautions Holmes from being discovered while he investigates the route Gregson's car took. At the hospital, Paige is now confined to a wheelchair due to the progression of MS. Saying Gregson called her when he left the precinct, as he does every night, she has no suspects and no indication where Gregson stopped at after he left the precinct. At the crash scene with Tremaine, Holmes lies on the pavement where Gregson was found. Holmes is able to get Tremaine to recall he heard brakes, which he hadn't reported to police. Several blocks away, Holmes finds skid marks which aren't on the route Gregson would have taken from the precinct.

| At the Brownstone, looking at a map, Holmes shows Watson the route Gregson's car took and notes that he sideswiped a parked car. Having looked at photos of Gregson's jacket, Watson believes that one of the red stains on it was made from red clay, not blood. Noting baseball fields use such clay on the base paths, they proceed to a field along the route Gregson took. Holmes finds a .380 bullet casing in the field, the same caliber used to shoot the Captain. Finding a bullet hole in the wall of a snack bar, Holmes smells lye and tearing off the wooden wall covering, he discovers a decomposed body wrapped in plastic. At the Morgue, Dr. Hawes identifies the body as Tim Bledsoe, whose mother Elise reported his disappearance eight months before. Killed by a gunshot to the head, Watson plans to visit Elise while Bell looks into the construction company who built the snack bar.

| Holmes and Watson question Elise who indicates she sought out Gregson after learning of Major Case's success finding a missing girl. Divorced from her husband police Sgt. Marty Bledsoe, she felt that Marty convinced the detectives on Tim's case that he'd run off. Although Tim had various problems with drugs and fights, she still didn't believe he'd disappeared and insinuates that Marty may have killed Tim. Questioned by Bell, Sgt. Bledsoe has alibis for the time of Tim's disappearance and Gregson's shooting. Distressed that Elise believes he killed Tim, he recalls many incidents Tim had in which he was able to get charges dropped. He provides Bell with several names of people involved in altercations with Tim that might have sought revenge.

| Individually, Bell questions Stanley Veek, professor at a school Tim attended, Jacob Goodel and Patrick Meers, a former Army officer. Veek was slapped by Tim in front of his class, Jacob was beat up by Tim, and Tim picked a fight with Meers. Veek and Goodel both indicate that Marty covered up Tim's crimes while Veek says that after Tim sucker-punched him, they fought and when police arrived, he didn't want to press charges.
