Bad Monkey

FBI agents question Caitlin about Nick Stripling’s finances, noting that he had only one account with around $12,000 at the time of his death. Both Caitlin and the agents are curious about his missing assets. After they leave, Eve calls and invites Caitlin to lunch.

Yancy meets Rosa for lunch, probing his past with the Miami police and Clifford Witt. They speculate about the severed arm, and Yancy expresses hope that solving the case will help him get reinstated, though Rosa cautions him against getting too optimistic. As they part, Rosa offers to cook for him another time.

Yancy breaks into Nick Stripling’s former office at Midwest Mobile Medical Systems and finds it mostly cleared out. Computers and files are gone, and shredded paper is scattered everywhere, along with some flyers for the “Super Rollie,” a mobility scooter. He discovers a note about unpaid fees to Dr. Gomez O’Peele. Yancy visits Gomez, waking him up.

Gomez, a former orthopedic surgeon from Atlanta who lost his license due to “personal setbacks,” reveals that Nick hired him to write prescriptions and handle insurance claims. Yancy learns that Midwest Mobile Medical was a fraudulent operation, using senior citizens’ identities to bill Medicare for medical equipment that was never delivered to them.
