Description:
When the corpse of a missing woman -- kidnapped from a
Boston park 13 years ago -- is found at the bottom of
the ocean, Jordan zealously searches for evidence
pointing to the victim's husband as her killer. However,
when the physical evidence fails to support her
allegations, Jordan must accept the grim reality that
the murder may have been a random attack. Meanwhile,
Peter faces the horrific task of identifying his wife's
body after she is brought into the morgue, forcing the
young M.E. to relapse into his former life. Elsewhere,
Lily's eagerness to console a mourning husband creates
problems when she compromises her objectivity.

Quotes:
Jordan: Hey, I’m looking for Detective Rodgers
Det. Rogers: You Cavanaugh?
Jordan: Yeah.
Det. Rodgers: Took ya long enough.
Jordan: It’ll take me even longer with that
attitude.
(Jordan opens the box with the dead woman inside)
Det. Rodgers: Man…first good homicide.
Jordan: No such thing.
Garret: Could this guy be a bigger pain in the
ass.
Bug: Peter’s not a morning person.
Garret: He’s not here in two minutes he’s gonna
be an unemployed person.
Max: Is this about dinner or hitting me up for
case files on Linda Farris?
Jordan: Wow, am I really that transparent.
Jordan:…everything points to him.
Max: Except my gut.
Jordan: Maybe your gut just gives husbands the
benefit of the doubt.
Max: Tell you what; let’s have our dinner another
time.
(Max leaves and Jordan is left feeling bad)
Nigel: Every brand and model has a unique
combination of patters and colors and thread types…it’s
kinda like DNA for mattresses.
(Jordan just smiles and nods)
Jordan: This goes back to my first relationship.
Uh, to when I…lost my…
Max: I don’t think I wanna hear this.
Jordan: I, I was a sophomore.
Max: Jordan, please.
Jordan: In College.
Max (surprised): In College?
Jordan: Yeah
Max: I figured, well, I mean. Well, in high
school you already seemed, uh…
Jordan: Slutty?
Max: Worldly is what I was gonna say.
Garret: You heard about Peter, right?
Jordan: People come and go so quickly here.
Garret: Speaking of which, you heard about Peter,
right?
Jordan: People come and go so quickly here.”
Garret: It’s my own fault. With his history I
never should have hired him.”
Jordan: You tried to give him a chance.
Garret: Yeah, exactly. It’s the last time I ever
try to save someone.
Jordan: Yeah right.
Garret: I’m serious.
Jordan: Come on Garret. You ask me you got a
classic St. Jude complex.
Garret: Oh this oughta be good.
Jordan: Yeah, the patron saint of lost causes.
Garret: I’m familiar with the reference, but
what’s it got to do with me.
Jordan: Hello, it’s been your MO ever since I met
you.
Garret: That’s a load of crap.
Jordan: If you say so…but if your not a sucker
for hard luck stories, then what the hell am I still
doin’ here?
Bug: Look, everyone messes up Lily. My first
autopsy I lost someone’s pancreas. I’m still lookin’ for
it.
Lily: How do I know I’m not gonna make another
mistake.
Bug: I’ll tell you right now, you will. That’s
the chance we take when we try and help anyone. You
wanna know who told me that? You!
Peter: Why would you give me another chance?
Garret: I’m a glutton for punishment. See you in
autopsy at 2am.
(At the beginning of this episode Garret was complaining
about Peter being late and Bug says he’s not a morning
person. At the end when Garret takes Peter back he makes
this comment—to torture Peter…he’s gotta have some fun
with Peter.)
