Interior: Empty house

A CSI guy is telling Boulet and Cobb that the victim was killed sometime last night. Love Tap is calling the phone number that is on the business card. It goes right to voicemail. There is no phone ringing nearby. Love Tap then grabs her own phone, and calls a request in to triangulate the whereabouts of a cell phone.

Love Tap tells Boulet and Cobb that the David Sampson she spoke with that morning is definitely not the guy on the floor. Cobb agrees, telling her that the body has been there since last night. She gives Cobb a sarcastic grin, and continues to explain that her David Sampson complained of death threats from an ex-business partner, a Daniel Voorhies. Boulet jokes, hey, they have nothing else to go on until some fingerprints come back, so let’s go find this Daniel Voorhies.

Moments Later:

Interior: Boulet’s Car

Cobb tells Boulet that he thinks that the business cards are just too obviously placed on the body, as if trying to make it look like someone else. Boulet interrupts him. “so you mean this Sampson guy kills another man and plants his cards on him, so whoever is threatening name thinks he’s dead and they should stop trying?” Cobb laughs a little, “No, nothing like that, but something…the cards are just oddly placed. Don’t most men keep their cards in their wallet?” Cobb continues, “Why absolutely nothing else to identify this man?”

Boulet’s phone rings, and he answers it. He listens, hangs up, and turns to Cobb. The house belongs to a company, DD Imports. Boulet turns the wheel.

Moments: Later

Exterior: DD Imports.

A short, inconspicuous building amid the dry docks. Cobb and Boulet are walking up to front door. Just as they are entering, Cobb says to Boulet, “didn’t we have a call down here?”

Just he gets those words out of his mouth, a black-haired woman, overly gothic, with a tight skirt and high boots, storms over to them, demanding what took them so long? Cobb tries calming her down, and Boulet asks what does she mean, suddenly putting it together that this place must be the burglary they were going to investigate before getting called to the murder scene that morning. The brunette continues taking at a breakneck speed, both informing them of the robbery and chastising them for taking over two hours to get there. What if she were being raped?

Cobb calmly asks her to explain what happened. She takes a deep breath, glaring at them both at the same time. She slowly explains that when she got there this morning to open up, the safe was open and cleaned out. She further explains that she is the office manager, and she has not been able to get in touch with either of the two owners just yet. Boulet asks the names of the owners. Dan Voorhies and David Sampson. And what exactly does the business import? She smiles and says, adult entertainment accessories.

Just then the phone rings. The office manager answers and freaks out on the person on the other end. She tells the phone to just hurry. She hangs up and tells Boulet and Cobb that Mr. Voorhies is on his way.

While waiting, Cobb asks her how long she has worked here, and she (Raven) answers that it has only been two weeks, but she has known Voorhies for a bit longer. He used to come into a club she used to work at. Boulet asks about the club. Well, she answers, he would deliver stuff to the sex shop next door, and he’d stop in for a drink. She was the bartender, and she didn’t want to work late nights anymore now that she is back in school, so Dan gave her this job. Cobb asks if she knew Mr. Sampson as long as Voorhies. She says, no, she has never actually met him yet, and she thinks he’s been out of the country since she’s started.

A car door is heard closing. Outside the window Daniel Voorhies is walking inside. He is tan, and somewhat younger than either of the supposed business partners he has. He shakes both Cobb and Boulet’s hand as he introduces himself. He then walks past them and into the office. Boulet and Cobb follow him.

Voorhies stands looking into the safe, shaking his head and rubbing a frustrated hand through his sandy blonde hair. he doesn’t bother looking anywhere else around the office. Voorhies asks Boulet if they have any leads yet. Boulet gives Cobb a look, and says to Voorhies, that no, unfortunately, they have just arrived themselves. He continues to add that CSI is on their way. Voorhies looks at him suddenly, CSI? Really? For a robbery. Boulet smiles. Well, it’s a bit more than that. He asks Voorhies if he has seen his partner David Sampson since yesterday. Voorhies looks confused, and answers no. He hasn’t seen him since before the holidays. Dave was going to Asia to see about some product and take a little R&R. Cobb then asks Voorhies to identify the man in a picture that he holds up to him. Voorhies stares at the photo, and says, yes, it’s David Sampson.

Meanwhile: Back at the Station.

Captain Embry is leading a suit through the precinct. The suit is FBI. Embry is congenial as he leads the FBI Agent into his office. He makes light of the efficiency of the federal government in light of his current office, but the FBI Agent doesn’t smile. He doesn’t see a chair, so he stands as he informs the Captain that there has been a request made from someone in Internal Affairs to conduct an investigation into corruption among the NOPD. The Agent, Agent Ball, then continues to tell the Captain that he personally thinks this is a waste of time and a PR stunt to turn down criticism about the federal role in New Orleans.

But he has a job to do, so he will expect the Captain’s help in this matter. Agent Ball has some other departments to look into first, but he will be needing to look through the captain’s officers as well. Embry offers his help, and thanks Agent Ball for the heads up.
