You're one big surprise

after another, stranger.

- You up for a cappuccino?

- You up for finding out who done it?

OK, inspector, back to work.

So, what exactly are we looking for?

Well, I assume you checked

the victim's cuffs last night, right?

I also assume that you would've seen

there was sand inside those cuffs,

which tells us...

Maybe he was dragged

along the beach.

Exactly.

Let's go check out the beach

at Crissy Field.

I don't think anything

would've happened here. Too risky.

Not if it were late at night.

So anyway, the ex confessed

after we shook him a little.

Great. Delmarco, Shepard,

where are you guys on yours?

Crime scene is clean.

No weapons, no prints, no witnesses.

We're going out to known associates

and neighbors.

All right. Anything else?

All right, let's break it up.

Yeah, actually,

I'd like to put word out to be on the

lookout for similar victims coming in.

Males, 20 to 30, severely beaten.

Wait a second.

You got only one body

and already you're thinking serial?

I mean, what is this?

Spotlight withdrawal?

Here's some advice I like to share

with new inspectors.

It's sort of like Homicide AA.

One body at a time. OK?

Your boyfriend.

He's not my boyfriend.

He's an ex and he's the reason

I don't get friendly

with my co-workers anymore.

Well, that's good to know.

- Let me talk to him.

- Thank you.

Shepard.

- Jessica.

- Yeah?

Bridge Patrol found another floater.

Someone pounded the sh*t out of him.

OK.

How much did we drink last night?

Well, maybe next time you should

go easy on the sangria.

I must have gotten wasted.

I kind of blacked out.

Too bad I wasn't there.

Big inspector now, so you don't

call me back ever, right?

I guess that's the reason.

You patrol guys wanna rustle

me up some breakfast?

A little bacon, eggs, toast,

black coffee.

Seeing as how you're not busy.

F*** you, Delmarco.

Make that bacon crisp.

Check it out.

Yeah. There's the cigarette burn.

- It's our guy.

- OK. Let's get him out.

- Keep it level!

- OK.

Good, a little more.

- How's that?

- Right there.

All right.

We got him. The guy was

in the system. Lawrence Geber.

DOB 12-11-68.

Had a DUI a while back.

- See you later, man.

- OK, bye.

Tell me about it.

How did you know

there'd be another body?

There was that cigarette burn

on the back of the hand.

It's not a simple homicide.

Cigarette burn's intentional.

A signature.

What's up?

I can't say I'm happy

you were right about this,

but it was a good call, Shepard.

Nice going.

All right, let's get on this fast.

I want this guy stopped

before the bodies pile up.

This guy thinks he's a pro.

This guy thinks he's being careful
