Rizzoli and Isles - season 2

1-We don’t need another hero
It starts three months later, and I wonder if for a moment they wanted us to believe that Jane died… come on!  Jane receives a medal although she doesn’t feel heroic (obviously, that’s how real heroes are). She even has to make a little speech. She also meets her old boyfriend Casey.
She still hurts from the wound. Jane and Casey get together but in the morning Angela barges in to clean the place and he has to go. She says they ‘almost’ had sex, and now he has to go back to Afghanistan. 
A bomb on a car kills the young soldier who received the other medal. The bullet in soldier Abigail’s shoulder turns out to be American, not Taliban. There’s another bomb but Abigail’s fellow soldier survives. Lt Forman dies too (before the bomb). He was in a relationship with Abigail. Soldier Campbell was her ex, he shot her in Afghanistan and killed the two of them here: that’s people for you :-/ 
Apparently Maura is always advising Jane to have sex… 
Angela cries because her husband asked for a divorce! I loved this scene: when she started crying Jane looked for a pen saying “when she gets very emotional and she can’t talk we have her write it down” OMG that’s so like me! Well, I don’t have anyone understand that so I usually just stay silent because I can’t talk…  :’(  Dad moved out already, Tommy is in prison and Angela has lost her house so Maura offer her her guest house. Maura had started dating Jane’s surgeon but stops it quickly when they talk about Jane’s condition and he says to her “you’re only a pathologist”…
Apparently Jane is a “not girly, crabby, social deviant” :-p Her wound doesn’t hurt anymore. 
Love the ending, with Jane teasing Maura: “Dr Isles guessed, Dr Isles gue-essed” :lol:
2-Living proof
Maura and Jane are having a clay-bath: Maura claims it’s good, Jane is very bored :-p when a man barges in with a pregnant woman that was just stabbed. She’s already dead, but Maura and Jane manage to save the baby. It turns out that she was a surrogate mother, and two couples come to claim the baby. A woman at the fertility clinic couldn’t have children, no procedure worked on her, so she wanted Tracy’s baby but she wouldn’t give it to her. They stop her when she tries again.
The Tolliver couple gets the baby because tests reveal that he’s the biological father.
Now that she’s getting a divorce, Angela is driving her kids crazy. She wants to repaint Jane’s apartment, but Jane hates pink :-p or begonia as well :-p
At the end, Maura and Jane are back at having their clay-bath, talking and joking :-p
3-Sailor man
Angela’s car breaks down and their mechanic Giovanni lends them a AlfaRomeo Giulietta, his red car :-D  Jane is very much against the idea of Maura dating Giovanni, or even just sleeping with him, and when he comes to the station with flowers she just assumes they’re for her :-p
Maura invites Giovanni to her house because she wanted to sleep with him..if only he didn’t talk :-p or lick *gosh* so now she wants to get rid of him, but not even seeing her with a saw about to dissect a body convinces him to leave :-p Finally Maura and Jane pretend to be lovers to get rid of him “we are more than bff, we are llbff, life-long-bff” :-p and eventually he got the message :-p
Frost and his father don’t get along at all; once he took his wife and son to Japan then went away on a ship and stayed away for so long that after two years his wife just gave up and moved back to Boston. 
A girl was raped and strangled, presumably by a sailor. Frost’s dad is in the navy, an Admiral. He bails a suspect out of jail and another girl is raped and ‘almost’ killed - she’ll die later at the hospital. The first suspect was locked in the brick though. Eventually they get the rapist, he was not in the Navy after all. 
4-Brown eyed girl
A little boy witnesses his sister being abducted: she’s the daughter of Jane’s ex-partner Dan. It was an emotional scene when a body is found and Jane can’t tell if it’s her because she hasn’t seen her in 7 or 8 years, so the father comes forward and cries and then says “it’s not her” and keeps crying along with Jane, and it’s good news because his daughter might still be alive, but there’s still the body of a young girl right there and it’s so sad… that poor girl has been kept prisoner for three to five years, and raped, and it’s all heartbreaking. Someone pretending to be Mandy’s best friend chatted with her, and the dead girl Sophie maybe died protecting Mandy. Sophie’s father is proud to hear that… the fact that this time there’s a witness of course helps :) they find the woman, who thinks her man is a ‘prophet’ and they arrest her, then they find the man and when he goes at them with an hatchet Jane Korzak and Frost shoot him dead and save Mandy. 
After this case Jane tells Maura: “I’m never getting married or having children” - “you think that will protect you?” - “no”
5-Don’t hate the player
Jane still has the little doggie :-) and her name is Joe Friday :-p Korzak gave her that name.
Tommy comes back home, Jane’s brother, and Maura lets him stay. Later he fights with the vet who says that Joe Friday is depressed and for that charges him 300$ ! Korzak will solve the mystery of the dog: she’s allergic to poultry :-p
When Maura’s place is burglarized Jane and Frankie suspect Tommy but it turns out it was someone else so Jane has to apologize. 
When Jane has to meet a player at a chic place, Maura has her exchange their clothes :-p lovely :)
Maura gives her her dress and shoes, after cutting off the point: “tiptoes! :-D” and Maura is lovely and sexy in Jane’s clothes, with the too-long pants and barefoot :-) dressed like that, she’ll say she’s been hitting on twice, by women :-p
Maura tries to get prints from a pair of latex gloves and tells Jane “this is not CSI Boston” :-p
A body is found at the Pilgrim’s stadium, in the showers. Jane is a Red Sox fan apparently, but likes to watch all baseball games.
The detective they meet at the scene wants to declare it an accident, but Maura is suspicious so Jane takes over as “homicide detective”. The guy had been hired as a special coach to the team star player who has a drinking problem. This Manny Vega drives a Ferrari and is arrogant af.
Manny dies in a car accident, but he had been slowly drugged. The murderer is the same player that took Jane out to dinner. When she arrests him she smiles and says “I’ve got to admit you’ve got balls taking a cop to dinner. You thought you could charm me too?”
6-Rebel without a pause
Maura’s mom is coming, the first time in her house. She’s very very nervous about dinner; her mom is in Boston for an opening and she has booked at the Ritz to she won’t be staying with Maura. I found her so snob she came out utterly rude, like when Jane offered her ‘cannoli’ and as a reply, to decline, she told her she was tired, in French! The next day she cancels her dinner with Maura! Jane goes with her to her mother’s art gallery and is upset when Maura’s name is not on the list! They get in anyway after Jane flashes her badge. She can’t let it go and as soon as they are alone she tells Maura’s mother about the list thing, and also that she’s protective and doesn’t want to see her best friend hurt. Mom doesn’t seem to understand so she explains “not staying with her, canceling dinner, forgetting to put her on the list, yeah I think that hurts her” and as a reply she gets “I was never good at being a mother”. 
Korzak speaks of his difficulty in breathing to Maura. He starts eating differently, but later Maura tells him that he had no heart attack, it’s his crackers giving him gas.
The bird that Korzak picked up and gave to Angela to care for dies, so Maura gave her a new one, without explaining it to her, so Angela thinks he’s ok “you can not believe how healthy Starsky is (the bird)” :-p
During a historical reenactment a guy is shot dead for real. His girlfriend says all the others were angry at him because his jacket and his buttons were not historically accurate. A modern bullet was used, and he wasn’t even the designated target, only ‘collateral damage’ . 
Maura climbs a tree to collect evidence :-p
There’s another shooting, they miss but the victim dies of a cardiac arrest. Maura Jane Korzak and Frost all dress in historical clothes to enter the historical society, and Jane’s so pretty when she runs after the shooter lifting her long skirt :-p The suspect was a woman, Kathleen Dunn, that had claimed rape (18 years ago by one of the reenactors, professor Kraviz) but her rape kit was never even tested! (I guess that explains how this world cares about rape…). She confesses the murder but when Maura says that the DNA was male they understand she was covering for her son, the rapist’s son. Having found out the truth, he wanted to kill the monster and tries again in class. When they stop him he begs them “please let me shoot him”.
END: Maura’s mom joins them at the bar, and it’s a lovely scene, Maura and Jane with their mothers :-)
7-Bloodlines
Angela makes a bunny pancake at work :-) Maura has solar panels on the roof of her car.  Frankie’s ex Teresa stops by: she left Frankie to pay for her car loan years ago. Jane doesn’t like her and talks about it to him in front of Frost, so Frankie tells him of a certain Steve “she was nuts about him, she started wearing dresses…” :-p Maura and Jane spy on them, but he notices. Teresa told him that he has a daughter, a pretty little girl :-) They have a family dinner with Teresa and little Lily, and Jane takes Lily’s glass and gives it to Maura to test. It turns out that Lily is Not Frankie’s daughter, and he feels sorry about that.
CASE: a girl, Helen, is burned alive. At her apartment Korzak finds her black cat. Frost has to bust open two doors with his shoulder :p They find out that two girls and a guy were Helen’s witch family. Maura Jane Korzak and Frost attend their seance to contact Helen. The youngest witch Sabrina got attacked but is alive, while the guy is killed. Truth is Sabrina is schizophrenic and she killed the other two but they stop her before she kills the third one. 
8-My own worst enemy
A guy, Ian, shows up at Maura’s place and she jumps on him and they start kissing right away. After that Maura will show up late at the crime scene and with two different shoes, one black and one blue :-p Maura keeps Ian a secret from Jane as long as she can :p (This Ian’s voice/accent is lovely!) Angela of course figured it out and she tells Jane who fakes (badly) knowing about it. 
Maura says he’s “just an old friend”. Ian is Australian but lives in Africa. Maura and Ian were once together in Ethiopia. Angela spies on him and then tells Jane that he is a spy because he has different passports with different names. Jane checks him out and tells Maura: “Ian is wanted by Interpol for stealing drugs” but she knows. She cries while talking about him because he’s gone again, and she tells Jane that Ian is the love of her life and that’s why she can’t talk about him, because it makes her sad because she loves him but can’t be with him. He went back to Africa: “his crime is risking his life to bring drugs and basic supplies in places nobody cares about and I helped him so go ahead and arrest me”. No arrest here of course. 
Jane keeps limping so Maura takes a look at her foot. When Jane will show up at her place because of her aching foot, Ian is there and is more qualified than her for the job :p !!
Maura tells Jane that Angela reorganized her entire kitchen ‘alphabetically’, “so now the corkscrew is near the chopsticks” :-p Jane replies “I’m so sorry” about her mom and she means it :-p
At the end it appears that Angela also threw away Maura’s shoe boxes (!!!) and she says “can you arrest your mother?” - “ok” and they hug :-) lovely. 
Jane gives a lot of money to that man that calls her Vanilla, but it doesn’t seem to me like he’s actually giving much information…
The case starts with a dead man and his injured son. He smuggled heroine and now the son’s family has been taken. They save the family.
9-Gone daddy gone
Tommy spent the night at Maura’s place playing chess. Jane tells her “don’t sleep with my brother!” :-p Maura likes playing with him, and at the end Jane reveals she knows how to play chess too. “who do you think taught him? Tommy’s not the only Rizzoli with a beautiful mind” :-p
Jane’s annoyed because she has to go to “sensitivity training”, mandatory for everyone. 
Maura has a gift for “not lying” :-p
The body of a girl, killed with an icepick, is found. Her father got badly injured at the docks and she went there to investigate. 
Doyle breaks into Maura’s house because he’s injured, he got shot, and his man has a gun at Tommy’s head to convince her to treat him. He says he did NOT kill that girl. “I don’t kill children or women or anyone who doesn’t deserve it. I’m being framed”. Jane doesn’t believe it but Tommy does and he’s serious: “He lives by a code that’s why he has respect. He has a heart Jane. You didn’t see the way he looked at her. He may be a bad guy but he loves his daughter”. 
One of Doyle’s men turns up dead. The autopsy on the girl is performed by a Dr Pike, very arrogant guy, and Maura has to pull rank and be bossy because he didn’t do an accurate job. 
The girl’s murderer is killed by Doyle, and he almost kills the guy who ordered it. He goes away when they come to arrest that guy. 
10-Remember me
A man, in prison for a misdemeanor, is about to go out, but gets killed. When they go to investigate,  Hoyt is in the infirmary, apparently being treated for cancer - Maura confirms it. The dead guy had swallowed a little bag with four teeth of children. Jane goes in the basement to look at cold cases ( and makes a mess opening lots of boxes; did she put everything back in order before going out?? It’s a bit annoying that big detectives in the movies always make a mess but never put the papers and pictures back where they were, but if they find a file not perfect they get all judgmental on whoever did it… :-/ )
Jane finds the case of a missing family, parents and two daughters. Thinking of the few words Hoyt told her, Jane finds the bodies of the Wilson family. When a guard calls her saying that Hoyt is dying and wants to tell her more, she goes with Maura. The guard is on Hoyt’s side, though, and when they get there Hoyt takes Jane by the throat while the guard ties Maura up. The guard is the one that killed that poor guy. When the guard holds Jane down and Hoyt starts hurting Maura, Jane finds it in her to free herself and fight and kill Hoyt. Korzak comes in in time to shoot the guard and Jane cries in his arms. 
Maura tells Frankie that he’s getting fat :-p He thinks he failed his detective test. 
Jane’s birthday is coming up but she hates it, because it never turns out the way she imagined it. When the case is finally over, they go to the bar but there is nobody there, no party… because the surprise is at her house, a birthday party for her: Frankie passed the test with 96% :-D and Jane loves Maura’s gift: racing lessons :-) Jane’s happy :-) good :-)
11-Can I get a witness?
When the media cover the story of the trial of a murderer, we see Jane on TV. Her witness gets killed right outside his hotel. Without this witness the case will be dismissed unless Korzak can produce his CI but he keeps saying he doesn’t know how to find him. They tell him that he must find him or give back his badge. He surrenders the badge…
Jane can’t let it go of course and finds out who this CI is: he wanted to protect Relita, the young mother of Dante’s baby. It turns out that the counsellor herself killed Dante because she had had a deal with that Little T boss for a long time.
When the counsellor’s car has a flat tyre, Maura changes it for her: she just needs to change her shoes and wear gloves because she’s wearing a pretty dress :-p 
Maura takes Angela to a famous journalist’s book signing event and Angela gives him Jane’s phone number :-p
12-He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother
Tommy has found an apartment so he moves out. He gives Maura a bottle of good wine and makes a move on her, but she pulls back. 
There’s a bank robbery, a man died, the Feds get involved. The Feds had been watching a van for like an hour, but then Jane comes, looks at it for five minutes top and notices some blood coming out of it :-/ Inside there’s the body of one of the robbers. 
The task force leader is the woman Frost was engaged to before “she married her job instead of me”.
Maura learns that Tommy is suspected to be involved in the robbery as their driver because his fingerprints are on the van, but she can’t talk about it to anyone. When Tommy comes to her to apologize (for trying to kiss her I guess) some agents take him away. Jane is very angry at her.
Jane asks Tommy “why?” and he says he had nothing to do with the robbery, he simply borrowed the van to move! Jane believes him and works to free him. Maura tells her that she likes Tommy but she loves her , and hates it when she hates her, and doesn’t want to compromise their friendship, and Jane says something like “good, because I hate it when I have to hate you” :-)
13-Seventeen ain’t so sweet
Casey is supposed to come back and go with Jane to her school reunion, but he’s called back (soldier in Afghanistan) so Maura goes with her instead. When they meet Giovanni they tell him that they are still a couple :-p Jane meets her former bff  Emily and all the mean girls and guys that she didn’t like. A man, Steve, asks for her phone number saying he needs to talk to her, but he gets killed before he has a chance. Debby is next, also from her school. “I’ve got another dead classmate” when Maria dies of a heart attack, because a ‘valve failed’: it was made by Rory’s company, where Steve worked. Steve knew they were making defective valves, so Rory’s wife killed Steve and Debbie, and when Jane arrests her for their murders she also arrests Rory for Maria’s death. Good. Disgusting people. 
14-Don’t stop dancing, girl
Jane giving boxing lessons to Maura :-) Jane went to ballet lessons for four years :-p
Apparently Jane was kind of jealous of Emily because she was the one with the big boobs… and Korzak’s third ex-wife Melanie comes back after five years. 
Melanie’s son (therefore Korzak’s stepson) Josh has been arrested for shooting a cop. The kid believes that Korzak abandoned him and wants nothing to do with him; that because when his mom left Korzak she told Josh that he was in love with his job, not them.He doesn’t give up and finally gets thru to him and they talk. The cop regains consciousness so Josh is safe and will testify against his ex-friends who actually shot the cop.
To get Maura to answer a simple question, poor exasperated Jane goes “yes or no. Practive with me= yes! no! “ :-p
Frost says that dancers and ice-skaters are not athletes! :-/ but golfers and racers are :-/ such silly thinking from usually nice Frost is unnerving :-/
 A woman walks on stage with a pair of scissors into her chest. The young ballerina’s real father is a drug dealer who killed the girl’s mother and her sister and tried to take his daughter away, but failed. The new dad comes to help and is injured, but the dealer dies. Good.  
15-Burning down the house
Agent Dean brings Jane flowers :-) he tells her that he came back for her and they sleep together. Jane tells him that Doyle’s back in town but also that she doesn’t want him to do anything, and he agrees… Jane is worried that Maura might be in serious trouble and in that case Doyle might be of help, he would protect her. 
Maura’s mom is back :-) they had a nice dinner together but then a car runs her mom over after she pushed Maura aside to save her. Jane was supposed to dine with Sean but of course she runs to Maura’s side. Doyle comes too but she doesn’t listen to him and sends him away. Doyle comes back, watching over her mother and showing her more pictures he has in his wallet. Maura’s birthmother was only eighteen. When her mother wakes up she tells Maura that “someone was here telling me I must live for my daughter” and Maura smiles, then her mom adds “was it Patrick?” (!!!) 
Frost doesn’t know the Blues Brothers! Come on, that’s unbelievable, he’s young but that’s a classic! I love that he always keeps his ‘action figure’ on his desk though :-)

A fireman dies in a fire. Whoever tried to kill Maura also started the fire, wanted that fireman dead. They set a trap, the murderer goes to kill Maura but Doyle shoots him first, then Dean and Jane shoot him. Maura shouts “No!” then runs to his side. Jane runs there too trying to help , but Maura yells at her “don’t touch him, I mean it, don’t you dare touch him!” and the look on their faces! Such an intense, emotional scene. Wow, both of them.
