Written by Ildy Modrovich

Three masked gunmen enter an upscale spa and demand that the women hand over their purses and car keys.  Victoria Morena manages to get to her pepper spray and spray one of the gunmen; shots ring out and Victoria’s limp body falls to the ground.  Marisol Delko is at the spa and falls during the attack; although she’s fine, Horatio insists she go to the hospital.  Horatio ascertains that the gunmen were focused on stealing the ladies’ luxury cars: a Lamborgini, Aston Healy and Viper.

 Pete Nealy, a massage therapist at the spa, saved Victoria’s life by giving her CPR.  He was also spying on the women.  Horatio spots the stolen Aston Healy at the county hospital where Billy Robinson is being treated for exposure to pepper spray.   Delko questions Hayden Cruise, who is dressed exactly like a race car driver.  He’s being pulled over for speeding in his newly purchased Lamborgini.  Cruise tells him he purchased the Lamborgini for 100 grand in cash from a guy named Joe.

 Calleigh and Wolfe get a lead from a tool mark that leads them to investigate a car ring that was run by Carvell Watson.  Watson is out on bail and awaiting trail.  He tells Horatio he’s out of the business, says he sold his tools to a guy named Joe.  Horatio gets a call from the hospital; Victoria is dead.  The team investigates a new “chop shop,” and  Wolfe freezes when a loaded shotgun is pointed at him.  Horatio shoots and kills Tanner and reassures Wolfe that he didn’t freeze, he just didn’t have a clear shot.  Wolfe knows he froze and it worries him.

 Calleigh goes undercover, and busts Watson selling stolen car parts.  Cynthia Gilmore, one of the women at the spa, is the victim of a home invasion robbery and is left tied up by one of the gunmen.  Horatio is concerned about Marisol and the other women that were at the spa, since the gunmen have all their house keys.    He asks Marisol to stay at his house.   Delko gets word that Marisol’s home alarm went off.  When Horatio and Delko arrive, there is a dead man on the floor of her apartment; it’s Greg Everest -- Delko recognizes him from earlier at Watson’s place.  Alexx’s investigation reveals that Everest was beaten up before he was shot.  Glove marks on Everest match Cruise’s.  Cruise confesses to the murder.  Horatio asks Marisol to live with him and she says yes.
