Brief Synopsis: After Garrett and Woody go to a
crime scene they find that a young girl has fallen off a horse. They soon learn
that the girl comes from a wealthy family. Garrett and Woody also began to try
to answer the question is money everything?
Jordan and Cruise: It was nice to see Cruise back in
on a case. I wondered what happened to her. We see so many different
detectives I didn’t know if they’d bring her back or not. She’s got that same
attitude. Here it’s a little more offensive, especially since she’s dealing
with Lily and not Woody. Lily’s just appalled at Cruises wish for a good
murder: i.e. a shooting or stabbing. Lily definitely didn’t take any liking to
Cruise. One of the few times I’ve seen her actually express a dislike in
someone.
Jordan’s good in this episode. She expresses concern over
the brother. She’s outrage at the pharmaceutical company and they thought of
them using trial drugs on a human. (She earns Cruises respect when she blows up
at the company’s representative). Jordan was very true to her character.
Bug and Sydney: They still have their differences,
but they’re starting to work a little better together. I actually like the
tension between the two. They’re always trying to one up each other and it adds
a little more fun to the crypt at times. They’re not overboard with it. It’s
just a natural rivalry which makes it believable and entertaining.
Garret, Nigel and Woody: A high profile case.
Three different personalities with different reactions to the case. Garret’s in
a fit with Mora (the specialist the family brought into to supervise the
autopsy). She makes a comment to the press that at the moment it looks like a
tragic accident. This is right after Garret says the blow to the head looks
like it was intentional. Garret snubs her throughout the episode. Mora though
relents and opens up to Garret’s method of processing the evidence. And the two
come to a mutual respect by the end.
Nigel’s impressed with Mora and compliments her throughout
the episode. He works well with her—he too shares Garret’s view that the death
wasn’t an accident, but he isn’t judgmental of her.
Woody looks at the facts tracks down the evidence and
follows the clues. He stays out of Mora’s way. I like Garret and Woody working
together. It’s a much more methodical and controlled atmosphere than when
Jordan is involved. I like the pace the two of them have when working together.
3 out of 5 Dead Bodies.
