Uh-huh. You better split!

Mellow out, Marquette. I'm cool.
Oh, no, you ain't.
Don't get in close 'til they slide you the bread.

This merchandise ain't for sale.
Well, it might make life easier if it was.

'You're buying, Scotty?'
'I'll buy even though it's your turn.'
- You're detectives, correct? - Yeah.
Where do I go if I know something?
- 'Bout what? - My husband.
Low-rent son of a bitch.
I just told him to pack his bags
'and get out of my house.'
I'm filing for divorce.
'Cause he hit you?
He visits prostitutes.
'He's has a fixation with that type of thing.'
We can't arrest your husband for that, ma'am.
I can't believe I married that pervert.
We can arrest him for assault.
If you're willing to press charges.
I told you why I'm here.
And I told you what we can do, and what we can't.
Maybe this will change your mind.
I found it in that bastard's belongings.
"Daniella." She one of the prostitutes he frequented?
No. She's the girl he murdered.
Ex-wife on the warpath.
A woman scorned makes a hell of a snitch.
Label says the film was made in '79.

Well, this Kaitlin claims she just came across this film.

Presumed homicide. May '79.
A Jane Doe.
- Could be a match. - Mm.
"Trash bag found containing women's clothing
"a handbag, all soaked in blood."
And rose petals.
In the clothes, the blood, everywhere.
Never found a body.
Yeah, but with all the skull
and brain matter in there
no way Jane Doe survived.
Probable cause of death, gunshot to the head.
Get a date on that film?
AV confirmed the year is 1979 off a piece of film leader.
Waiting on what month.
You remember this Jane Doe from '79, boss?
Yeah, garbage bag full of rose petals, sure.
Job went cold day one, no ID, no body, nothing.
Maybe now we got a name.
Daniella.
AV snapped a print off the home movie.
Pretty girl.
Lot of good it did her.
My wife's just after my money.
But she won't get a dime.
She didn't earn it.
She earn those bruises, John?
'I didn't kill anybody.'
It looks like you did.
In eight millimeter, black and white.
Oh, I was a kid.
It was a game.
Ask the girl yourself.
Mm, can't.
She's dead.
Well, one less cesspool polluting the world. Oh, well.
Seems to me you got a thing for those cesspools.
Multiple arrests for solicitation
five counts of assaulting working girls.
You put one in the hospital.
Hit 'em if you can't hit it. That your problem, John?
Those charges were dropped.
How'd you hook up with Daniella?
How anyone picked up that type back then.

We scored a joint then we drove around looking for a motel.
Finally, we ended up at her place.
And you stuck a gun in her face.
She was alive when we left.
I have the rest of the film to prove it.
Better hope you can find it.
'Well, if you don't believe me, ask Chris.'
He was there.
We'll talk to Chris.
Oh, you know, she said she wasn't a whore
but when Chris got out of the car to score
she gave me some.
For free.
We were dumb kids.
A few months from graduating high school

Aiming for the stars.
We did John's stupid movie and then we left.
She was alive.
You recall where her place was?
Gray's Ferry. Dickinson Street.
Good memory there.
Bad one. That night.
How so?
See, John was always crazy.

We went home, and that was it.
I never saw that girl again.
What about John?
Kind of stopped hanging out with him.
Beginning of the end of the friendship, you might say.
He said he got some play from Daniella that night.
Yeah but John always said a lot of things.
That girl was just a scared kid, she wasn't a pro.
You think John might've gone back, finished what he started?
Ever go back there yourself, Chris?
For what?
She's a pretty girl.
Maybe you couldn't leave that alone.
Think I might've blown my chances that night, don't you?
Stanley Kubrick dug up the rest of his film.
Had the negative in his basement.
Brought it in an hour ago.
-'A/ - V transferred it to video.'
'So this picks up right after psycho boy'
'supposedly shot Daniela'
Like they said, she was alive when they left.
The film was a fake.
Vera tracked down the lab records.
It was processed in March 1979.
And Jane Doe's trash bag turned up in May.
Two months after the film was made.
So maybe these boys aren't the doers.
Well, Jeffries and Vera found Daniella's apartment
a half hour ago, they got CSU with them.
Oh, it could be a wild-goose chase, Scotty.
The connect to Jane Doe is looking thin.
'Want me to give 'em the heads up, boss?'
Yeah.
Hey, Jeffries. Looks like this job
might've died on us.
That's not all that died.
We just Luminoled the scene.
It's a bloodbath.
'Last known resident in that basement was a Daniella'
no last name.
Landlord said she disappeared May 1979.
Same time Jane Doe's belongings were found.
DNA from the blood in the floorboards
matches the blood in the trash bag.
- So Daniella's our Jane Doe. - Yeah.
Keeps our two filmmakers in the mix.
How about this landlord for the doer?
'Guy volunteered his prints and blood.'
We'll run 'em for a match.
Any shell casings at the scene?
Nah, doer was real careful.
Washed the blood off the walls pretty good.
I want to drill this landlord
find out where Daniella came from.
Nowhere. Same place she disappeared to.
She didn't grow up in the bus depot.
Check prostitution arrests around the depot in '79.
Find someone who knew her, maybe they know her story.
You got it, boss.
Place was never no more than storage.
I turned it back after Daniella left.
You said Daniella disappeared some time in mid May?
You recall the exact date?
One day she's here and next day gone.
'Took most of her stuff so I figured she'd run off again.'
She was a runaway?
Hung at the old bus depot.
That's the kinda tenant I had in those days.
- Know where she came from? - 'No.'
Hear any gunshots coming from her apartment ever?
Round here, gunshots are like sunrise
an everyday sort of thing.
Ever see these kids hangin' around?
Mm-mm. Daniella already had a man.
What do you mean?
Some crazy Latin who shacked up here.
Always yelling at her like she'd downed the last taco
or something.
You ever get a look at him?
Heard him, though, loud and clear.
Every weekend, like clockwork.
You got someone staying in there.
You owe more rent.
Nobody's staying.
Just heard Chico going off.
I'm barely getting by. I can't pay more rent.
Well, then he ain't staying here.
He'll be out.
By tomorrow.
What was this boyfriend's name?
Edwin... Eduardo.
I seen Daniella bring in mail for him
from time to time.
Mm-hmm. She end up giving him the boot?
No. Heard him back here the very next weekend.
Hey, you ever try for a piece of her Latin ass?
Make up for that rent she couldn't pay?
You can't blame me for trying.
She was something.
Yeah. A desperate kid.
I wasn't gonna do nothing to her ain't already been done
a million times before.
'He's a real Romeo, that one.'
Looks like magazine pictures taped up on the wall.
Wonder who put 'em up?
Romeo sure didn't. Daniella?
No windows in this place.
Gotta look at something.
Maybe these were her windows.
I was lucky.
Got out while I still had my teeth.
Now I'm helping other working girls
do the same, one soul at a time.
According to arrest records
you worked the bus depot back in '79.
Did you know a girl named Daniella?
Daniella? Yeah.
Have any idea where she came from?
Not from here.
Daniella was..
She was a shining star.
Didn't belong on the streets?
Nobody belongs there, baby.
She's dead, isn't she?
We think she was murdered in '79.
I told myself she got out when she stopped coming around.
Always said she would.
Funny how things work.
So, what else can an old whore
do for you fine-looking gentlemen?
You ever see these two around the depot?
Mmm. Looks like every other white boy trolling
around for colored tail back then.
Daniella never gave none of that up.
So she wasn't hooking at all?
Uh-uh, baby. No way.

This one and, and that other one
always picking her up from the depot.
"Red Camaro Kid," what I called him.
Never saw his face, just that fine-looking ride.
I thought you said she wasn't hooking.
Well, hooking ain't what that was about, baby.
Shoulda seen Daniella's face when he'd drive up.
Looked like she was falling in love
for the first time, every time.
'Daniella had a live-in boyfriend, Latino guy'
and this Camaro Kid on the side.
So we're thinking a love triangle got her killed?
One theory.
You ran Boyfriend's name through AutoTrack?
No hits. Edwin Castillo Edward, Eduardo.
Guy ain't in the state of PA.
Maybe loverboy got rid of him, too.
Hey. What've you got?

and you'll never guess who owned one.

Me and her had a thing. So what?
A thing? We hear Daniella was head over heels.

Across the river. Jersey City.
Why'd home have bad memories for her?
I never asked.
Hm.
No missing persons report in Jersey
matching Daniella's description.
How about the boyfriend? You AutoTrack him in Jersey?

I haven't seen Edwin in 25 years.
He ran real wild as a boy.
We fought.
But I always thought he'd come home one day.
Well, we need to find him, Ms. Castillo.
Why?
We think he was involved with this girl.

Oh, I want to be there for that interview.
'"Love, Daniela."'
Even as a kid, he was signing his name as a girl.
Mom give you these?
And she and Edwin would fight day and night
about him wearing make-up, jewelry..
He ran away after one too many screaming matches.
The fights continued over the phone.
The arguing the landlord heard.
Yep.
Yeah, Mom always figured Daniela would, uh
grow out of it.

So why were the petals found with Daniela's bloody clothes?
Unless you went back.

Until your pops found out.
And then you were ashamed of her and hid her things
