CSI: NY - 1.16: "Hush" Review


A truck driver is found splattered under a trailer and Danny and Aiden investigate the goings on at a fetish club. Plenty of jokes galore this episode.

There's a truck jacking involving a shooting and there's blood found on a container.   Stella (Melina Kanakaredes) can't wait to get her jokes in, "That's gonna need a bit more than a bag and tag."  They call Hawkes (Hill Harper) out of the morgue once more and Mac (Gary Sinise) suggests he brings a spatula, which he does.    Part of the DB has been found.  Kevin Harrington, (Mark Sheppard) the foreman says they can't shut the port down.     TOD was within the past 4 hours.   Mac tracks the databases and the computer shows where the container was during the last 12 hours.  The rest of the DB is found under another container.   The ME is in charge of the body.   So obvious who the killer is here cos he's in charge and so knows all the ins and outs of the port and what to hide where..

A dead woman is found on the side of the road in the second story, with blood on the tree bark and headlight glass on the ground, as well as the presence of skid marks.   Danny (Carmine Giovinazzo) says, "First thing you learn on this job is that anybody can do anything to anyone." Hawkes finds the DB has candy cane ligature marks on the neck and body.   No rope or tape was used and this was done quickly, the bruising is even, could be straps were used.   There's glass on the passenger side and a bag inside containing a latex body suit.   The straps have teeth impressions.   Ron Bogda and Debbie were involved in a fetish stunt, glasses were broken and these are but there is no match to the glass found.

Hawkes puts the DB together to determine COD.   He was crushed and the hands were in a defensive position so he was still alive when he died.   There's a knife wound, he is Paddy Dolan.   Mike, (Bumper Robinson) says the supervisor didn't treat the workers well, they're not meant to be talking to Mac.   The knife is used for work and all workers have one.   The worker's knives don't match and Sean's (Tory Kittles) knife is spotless.   Mac: "What worker keeps their tools clean, that isn't a science-obsessed criminalist."

Paddy's jeans contain insect eggs at this time of year from the south pine beetle.   Sean had a work accident a week ago caused by Paddy.   Mac and Stella check the containers and one is locked, revealing a DB inside, Mike's brother, Jimmy.   Hawkes finds multiple blunt force trauma to the head.   Brass knuckles were used.   The DB was preserved by the cold.   Mac believes Paddy was involved and was in the container; but why?

The latex suit is like a sponge and has prints on it.   Danny tells Aiden (Vanessa Ferlito) he'll  take the top, but she wants it.   Danny: "You getting all free on me because we drew a bondage case."  Aiden uses the ALS to reveal a print, matching Jennifer who has a record for public lewdness.   Danny and Aiden attend a safe bondage seminar, where they are mistaken for the Andersons.   Danny: "Yeah, traffic was murder."  In the garage, Joe (Ted Raimi) has contraptions and he makes a run for it and they lose him.   Bruising shows the DB was a passenger in the car but John (Albie Selznick) wasn't the driver.   Danny tries to get Aiden to try out the 'Robospanker'.   Aiden: "That's sexual harassment Danny."  Danny finds a hair that Aiden misses.  Then tackles Joe to the ground with a blowtorch.   Joe only sells the equipment.

Mike was fired and Mac has to make it right for him.   Paddy was stealing from the containers.   The bartender claims Jimmy and Paddy had a fight and Mike followed Paddy out.   Two samples of blood are found from the Vic and epithelials from a male.   The container was found in a shipment to Kong Kong and was moved by someone with authority and training.   Paddy doesn't know how to use the equipment and Kevin almost runs Mac over and Mac takes his knife.   Mac says Kevin wanted to teach Jimmy a lesson and Paddy helped with the body and wanted money.   Kevin stabbed him and made it look like an accident with the container.   Mike gets his job back and Mac thanks Stella for saving him.

The glass found was an optic lens from a camera and the bruising on the eye was caused by the lens.   Jennifer (Laura Leigh Hughes) wanted to make sure Debbie was safe.   Her husband didn't slow down, lost control and crashed into the tree.   The body was planted and wasn't wearing a belt.   It all occurred just for the fun of it.   Danny asks Aiden if she wants to get some food.  Danny: "I'll drive, put you on the hood."
Aiden: "Put you on the hood."

CSI:NY's first bout into a fetish case, which have been the subject of many a CSI episode.   Aiden missing the hair on the rack, what was she thinking?  Stella telling Flack (Eddie Cahill) he woke them up just to inform them he's solved the truck jacking case, really Stella?  The reference to the Marlon Brando movie was obviously, On the Waterfront.    These crims don't know how to go about committing the perfect murder, when Jimmy's body could have been dumped elsewhere, no body, no proof of murder.  The same with Paddy.   Mac getting 'physical' with a suspect as does Danny when he arrests a suspect and gets emotional too over the children no longer having a mother.

Two cases which had certain things in common; how the bondage had an affect on people's bodies, done voluntarily and then Paddy being crushed by the container, being killed that way.   Mark Sheppard went on to star in many other shows, such as Leverage, Doctor Who and playing ruthless Crowley in Supernatural.
