SOMEONE WITH A SLIVER OF GREASE

ON HIS OR HER SHOE.

NO, I'M NOT SENSING

A STRUGGLE.

NO STRUGGLE...

[BANGING]

THE DOOR.

DID YOU HAVE TO BREAK DOWN

THE DOOR WHEN YOU GOT HERE?

NO, IT WAS OPEN. WHY?

NO, NO, NO,

DON'T ENCOURAGE HIM.

GET UP.

McNAB, I WANT YOU TO ESCOR THESE TWO MEN

OUT OF HERE NOW.

OH, COME ON.

LET ME READ THE WITNESSES.

YOU KNOW, DUE DILIGENCE.

SPENCER, WE DID

THE DUE DILIGENCE.

IT WAS A SUICIDE.

THERE IS NO CRIME.

THERE ARE NO WITNESSES.

YOU'RE WRONG.

THERE IS A WITNESS.

THERE'S A CAT.

I WANT TO TALK TO THAT CAT.

AS SOON AS HE'S FINISHED...

LICKING HIMSELF.

WOW. I'M JEALOUS.

BELIEVE:

YOU TOOK THAT CAT.

GUS, THEY WERE GOING

TO SHIP HIM OFF:

TO AN ANIMAL SHELTER.

WHAT CHOICE DID I HAVE?

PLUS THIS CA IS THE LEAD WITNESS

IN A MAJOR MURDER

INVESTIGATION.

YOU WANT TO HOLD HIM?

OH, NO, YOU DON'T.

YOU TOOK THE CAT,

YOU CARRY IT.

WE'RE RIGHT ON

THIS THING NOW.

I DIDN'T HAVE

ANYTHING SUBANTIAL.

A STEAK?

THE CHAIN THE DOOR?

A STAIN ON THE CARPET?

I WOULDN'T HE BELIEVED ME.

WE NEEDED AN "IN,"

NOW WE HAVE ONE,

PLUS HE CLEARLY LIKES YOU.

GIVE HIM A SNUGGLE.

YOU KNOW, I'M ACTUALLY

GOING TO ENJOY THIS,

YOU HAVING:

TO CARRY THIS CAT AROUND,

PRETENDING YOU CAN

COMMUNICATE WITH IT.

I'M BUYING A DISPOSABLE CAMERA

FOR WHEN YOU HAVE

TO CLEAN OU:

HIS DIRTY LITTER BOX.

LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING.

THIS CAT HERE IS A GIFT,

A CONDUIT FOR US

TO SAVE LIVES,

AND HE HAS MORE TEGRITY

IN HIS LITTLE FURRY HAND...

PAW.

PAW, THAN MOST PEOPLE

HAVE IN THEIR WHOLE...

APPENDAGES...

APPENDAGES.

WHAT?

ALL OF...

THAN MT PEOPLE HAVE IN ALL

OF THEIR APPENDAGES...

COMBINED.

OH YEAH?

I THINK HE WANTS

TO SLEEP ON YOUR CHAIR.

HOW LONG ARE YOU GOING

TO KEEP THIS UP FOR?

UNTIL WE SOLVE THE CRIME.

DON'T YOU OR YOUR CA GET MAD AT ME,

BUT I DON'T THINK

THERE WAS A CRIME.

OH, REALLY?

YOU DON'T THINK SO?

TRY TELLING THA TO THIS POOR LITTLE GUY,

WHO TRAUMATIZED:

SEEING HIS OWNER KILLED.

TELL HIM.

I'M JUST SAYING I CAN KINDA GE WHERE LASSITER IS COMING FROM.

A FEW SUICIDES IS NOT UNCOMMON.

GUS, DID YOU LOOK

AT THE SKY TODAY?

BLUE, CLEAR...

AND DID YOU FEEL I OUT THERE?

WARM. NICE. STATISTICALLY,

PEOPLE IN MILD CLIMAS

ARE FAR LESS LIKELY

TO KILL THEMSELVES.

NOW, IF WE WERE

IN VLADIVOSTOK,

WE COULD TALK.

THE POINT IS,

AT THE END OF THE DAY,

THIS WAS A 50-YEAR-OAN

LIVING ALONE WITH A CAT.

OH. OH.

DO YOU WANT DOWN?

YOU CAN GET DOWN.

YOU'RE PROBABLY RIGHT.

I KNOW I'M RIGHT.

IT'S PROBABLY A SUICIDE.

THANK YOU.

THAT WAS BIG OF YOU TO ADMIT.

I'M UNCLEAR

ON ONE LITTLE THING.

WHAT'S THAT?

HOW DO WE EXPLAIN

THE SECOND BODY THEY JUST FOUND?

DETECTIVE O'HARA.

WELL, YOU'RE HERE
