After assuring himself that Lindsay was in good hands, he arrived at the crime lab. He had to find some way that they could get Vackner on. Mac told him to come on in the lab and they were going to put their heads together.
He hung up his coat in the locker room and headed towards the evidence room. Mac had all the evidence on the table and had a serious frown on his tight features.
"Mac," Danny said, coming up to the table and picked up a bag of fibers. "We have ta find something to get Vackner on. He was the mastermind to this whole thing. He got the ball rolling and had Garrett attack Lindsay."
Mac sighed. 'Unfortunately, we only have the fact that Garrett talked to Vackner in Rikers. Any prosecutor would argue that it is not solid evidence."
"So we're screwed, that's what you're saying." Danny said, his voice rising.
"Danny calm down!" Mac said, trying to calm Danny down.
Danny looked at him, bewildered. "How can I calm down Mac? How can I? The man that set up the attack on Lindsay is now a free man on a mistake and he could come after her. Now you tell me what should I do about it!" Danny said, angrily.
"I don't know Danny." Mac said, sighing.

Knowing that the officer was at her front door, she felt safe enough to take a bath. She stripped down naked and eased into the hot tub. The hot water felt good on her bumps and bruises.
She put a hot washcloth over her face and reclined in the water. Under all the steam and the water, she thought she heard someone walking.
"Danny?" She called out but there was no answer. Thinking that she was imaging things, she relaxed more in the tub.
She heard a loud bam and she looked up and a man was staring her down. She screamed but not before she was knocked unconscious by a large fist.
It was Vackner.
