It's great to see these early episodes and how the people, grow, change and form new alliances. This episode was the usual mix of many things going on between different people, different crimes, deaths etc., and all the main cast gets some fun. In this episode, Mick does a sting on a guy who murdered his wife, Dominic and Leo find a lottery ticket that belonged to a dead man.

The fun begins when Leo remembers the ticket while they are drinking in a bar, and they go to take the ticket into 'protective custody' while fantasizing about how they would use the 2 million dollars. With no known relatives they decide to give the ticket to the dead man's long time friend and are thrown for a loop when a greedy long lost nephew (played by Ben Bass of Rookie Blue) shows up looking for whatever he can get. The two devious men manipulate the situation, sting the nephew for funeral expenses and the ticket goes where it should have. I loved the new found camaraderie between Da Vinci and the formerly prickly Leo, it's great to see people grow and change just like in real life. You'll love the last scenes too !
