Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, what are we doing
here? What does it matter now that David Chow killed
Mr. Kim Chee? Chow is dead, Heather Stevens, by some
sort of immaculate crime solving conception in a
box, with no actual knowledge except for hearsay and
innuendo passed along by her clueless PI father, has
taken credit for solving the unsolved for more than
a year mystery, so can we please move along? Must we
be subjected to Heather's notion that the District
Attorney may want her to come back when she was
fired for incompetence?
The answer is yes.
With Heather, and his aluminum briefcase at Crime
Solver Headquarters which is to say PI Williams'
Jitter Joint office, super-sleuth concludes that he wouldn't put
it past David to have left more dead bodies
floating around out there. Paul also reported that
cops in Louisiana found a car reported stolen in
Genoa City that looks to be the one that crashed
into the limo and there was a blue suit in the
trunk. Who's suit was it? Do the Louisiana Police
know? Did they send it to a crime lab and have it
checked for fibers and crap and compared the
findings with those found by the GCPD? No, they
didn't.
They didn't because the GCPD hasn't done much except
to declare the crash scene as a crime scene. The
GCPD hasn't provided any conclusive evidence that
David did much of anything. It hasn't located
mobster Walter Palin, and Heather said today that
Palin could be "anywhere in the world" which at
first might sound as if there won't be a search for
Palin. And yet the problem remains. How to determine
if Palin was driving the getaway car without any
actual evidence.
Only one this to do; ask Heather if on the night of
the gala when she met Palin for all of five minutes
if he was wearing a blue suit. Why, yes. He was.
There must have been other men wearing blue suits
that night, but while Palin didn't tell Heather his
name she was able to ID him from a year-old
photograph and thus, crime solved, case closed.
Crackpot PI that he is, you might think Paul would
know that David paid a debt to Palin by writing a
check. He might know too to check where the check
was cashed and whether Palin has been using a credit
card since that - illegally checking credit card
activity - is what Paul does best.
Now that she's solved a major crime, Heather wonders
if she should call her old boss. At first, even Paul
didn't understand why she'd want to do that
until Heather reminded him there must be other crimes
to solve. Gosh, that's what Paul said so Heather
must be right and should, he said, meet with D.A.
Dennis Elroy to show
him she has "what it takes to bust a case wide
open."
No sooner had Heather said that but what
Elroy was there telling Heather she done good! With
no official police report(s), nothing but Paul's
theory to go on, Elroy offered Heather her old job
back and she took it albeit whimpering slightly
that she'll have to start at the bottom of the
ladder. But that won't be a problem because
Heather's the only assistant the D.A.'s office has as evidenced by
the fact that Heather didn't have to go to Elroy, he
came to her!
