Summary: When the charred bodies of two men who had been robbing a Chinatown
bank are found, the entire team investigates the crime, which
leads them to Doris, the missing infant of the bank’s manager. The
team realises that Joanna Cho assisted with the robbery out of fear
for her daughter’s life. Mac and Stella finally manage to track down
the third robber, only to find him lying in a pool of blood, with a trail
of bloody baby handprints leading away from the body.
We see a busy, rainy New York. Then we see a man on fire in Chinatown in front of a bank. The
rain douses him. Mac and Stella are on the scene. Stella finds something ”gooey.” Upon entering
the bank and entering the back they see that the robbers lasered into the safety deposit vault.
Flack comes in and informs them that after two guards came to the rescue, shots were fired, and
”boom Acetylene tank ignited.” The security guard claims says he believes there were only two
perps, but a blood trail Stella finds, makes them think there were three of them, as the blood trail
leads to the back. Stella questions a teller. She says how she called 911. The smoke detectors
didn’t alert the fire company but just the people inside the bank. Mac and Flack question the
security guard who is worried about his partner and friend. When Mac tells him he’s sorry but
he died, he looks visibly distraught. The entire team (Aiden and Danny included) investigate the
vault. Many bullets are found and Aiden peels off a mask. They figure they worked that they
did it between 8:30 and 9 since there was no way it could be open before then. But Aiden finds
something confusing with it, they did things all over. They mostly hit vaults with the last digit
being 8 (38, 58, 18, 28). The bank robbers are superstitious (8 is a Chinese lucky number) though
there were others hit as well, (12, 14, 45). They add those to the list of unanswered questions.
The other was how they broke in. We next see Mac talking to Flack about Mr. Bloom, the leasing
agent, who comes up behind them and inserts his two cents. No sign of breaking and entering.
Seems suspicious. Mr. Bloom claims no one else could duplicate his key, and the only other
person with a key is still in China.
Mac is looking around, and noticed a hole in the sign that says Please keep closed. It looks
like a peep hole. It leads to the alleyway where there is the inside of an umbrella. They borrow
Mr. bloom’s umbrella and break it. They find their key- the burglars used an umbrella. Hawkes
is telling Stella how the one perp has burns on 52% of his body. Most to the upper torso. He had
pulmonary adema. The second perp had suffocated instantly. He was also holding something till
the last minute, and wouldn’t let go. Hawkes is going to try and ID them, work from the inside
out. We see Hawkes peeling off the burnt skin of the hands to print them. (taking them and
placing them on the skin backwards.) As he processes them in the computer he flips them to get
