Chinatown 7.8
- Stillman revists a case involving the death of a Chinese boy thought to be related to gang violence. Meanwhile, Eddie gives Rush extravagent presents. Read the Vitemo recap and review to find out what happened on CBS's Cold Case.
In the streets of Philadelphia's Chinatown during 1983, a young Chinese man named Jack asks a girl named Tam out for a date. The woman tells not to kiss her so close to his father's store. Jack's cousin Warren tells him he won twenty dollars playing dice. A Chinese gang member bumps into them and shows off a gun. Jack enters the store and watches as his father pays protection money to another gang member. Jack's brother Ling tells him he shouldn't bring his girlfriend around or their dad will find out. Jack jokes and says he will end up marrying the girl. Later, Stillman investigates Jack's murder after he is discovered in an alley.
In the present day, Rush finds a shoebox full of drugs and cash under Eddie's couch. Rush gets dressed and hurries out to work.
At the station, Valens informs Stillman that the mother of Jack, Mrs. Lu, is there to speak to him. The mother says she apologizes for the last time she met with him. She remembers when her husband tore up his card after Stillman asked him for information during Jack's funeral. Mrs. Lu says her husband recently passed away. She explains Jack wasn't in a gang, but was dating a girl named Tam Sung who was Vietnamese. She says Tam was shot three months before her son was killed. She explains she hasn't talked since her husband forbade her.
Stillman tells Rush that Jack was a sixteen year old who was shot in the back and the head. He says the Dragon Boys was the gang who ran the neighborhood. Jeffries says Tam was shot by what was thought a stray bullet during a parade.
After they learn that Tam's father Joe owns the same caliber gun that was used to kill Jack, Miller and Jeffries question him. He says he knew Jack was interested in his daughter at the time. He remembers when Taw was shot during a parade. He cheered her on while she waved a flag. After a bullet hit Tam, Jack and Joe went to her body. As his brother Ling pulled him away, Jack told him he saw that the shooters were gang members with dragon tattoos. Joe says he never spoke to Jack again, even during Tam's funeral.
Stillman tells Miller and Jeffries a man named Tong controls the Dragon Boys while keeping a clean and helpful public image through an organization called the Chinese Trade Alliance. He says Tong contacts the Dragon Boys through a man called the Dai Lo.
Rush and Valens meets with Jack's brother, Ling at the family store. He tells them his father didn't want them to talk to the police at the time. He explains if he reports a crime which imprisons a Chinese man, his store might get burned down. He remembers when Jack got in a fight with a Dragon Boy named Danny in the store. Another man named Chen walked in and calmed things down. Ling says Danny was killed a while ago. Valens sees that the store worked with the CTA. Rush asks another worker named Warren if he knew Jack and he says he was his cousin. Rush leaves him a card and asks him to contact her when they get some crysthanamum tea in stock.
