Unfortunately for Leary, he can relate to what he sees as the motive for the deaths. Shannon and Williams continue their investigation of the dead body found in the field.

There were two eyewitnesses, each with a different viewpoint of who caused the accident. Despite this bad start to his day, Da Vinci goes to work. His first case is that of Nick McLeod, who was found hanging in a new unoccupied house for sale. He is the realtor. He looks to have been squatting in the house. They later learn he was separated from his wife. But the unusual aspect of his death is that there is no physical way he could have hung himself with what evidence is at the scene. But they also find evidence of others who looked like they had been partying at the house. They later find Shawn Finch - one of the partiers - who tells them what he saw. Shannon and Williams investigate the death of Glen Bardsley, whose body is spotted underneath fallen leaves at the bottom of a ravine in a wooded area. Their investigation takes them to Bardsley's daughter and wife, the latter who is in a coma in an extended care facility.

Dr. Maria Donato replaces Sunny as pathologist in the Coroner's office. And Pierce slowly comes back into Da Vinci's good books when he at least agrees to read Da Vinci's proposal on a safe injection site.
- In the Police Department, there are some assignment changes. Suki has moved into the Robbery Division. Curtis is now partnered with Marla, an old colleague of Suki's from the police academy. Suki sees Marla as just a female version of Curtis. Williams has been promoted to Homicide, where she's partnered with Shannon. And Kosmo and Leary are now partnered. This change may do Leary some good as he, who still deeply affected by Josie's shooting death, has given away all his home possessions and has started living out of his truck parked on the beach. Kosmo, Leary and Suki investigate a robbery/homicide - in an attempted robbery, a man assaults and rapes the elderly homeowner, and entering the basement suite with a grow-op, the man gets electrocuted in what looks like a booby-trapped operation. The authorities follow his known associates for more information.

And the Mayor makes a suggestion to Da Vinci, which Da Vinci seriously considers despite the outward impossibility: a run at the Chief of Police job.
- With the trend toward tapas styled meals for at home dinner parties, Anna and Kristina test out recipes from a cookbook called "Small Bites", which only features recipes typical to cocktail parties. They attempt six recipes in two hours: margarita, celery & fennel soup with chilled grapes, prosciutto wrapped melon, seafood spring rolls, saffron chicken skewers with tomato jam, and raspberry meringues. Their guest chef taster is caterer Jonathan Chovancek, whose company, Culinary Capers, specializes in cocktail party type meals. Beyond the taste of the food itself, Anna and Kristina learn from Chef Jonathan two other important aspects of catering cocktail parties: the ease of eating the food served, and promptness of service. In addition to cooking, Anna and Kristina test manual citrus juicers through setting up their own lemonade stand, and decide if Serrano ham goes better with melon than prosciutto.
- Anna and Kristina tempt their sweet tooth by making recipes from the award winning cookbook, "Pure Dessert", the recipes from which seem to have a twist unusual to desserts. Their guest taster is executive pastry chef and fourth generation chocolatier Thomas Haas and his two children. Chef Thomas is worried about the lack of success he anticipates with their attempt solely because baking, different than cooking, can at times be more a science than an art; the recipes need to be exacting to be successful. Anna and Kristina attempt five recipes: ice cream (the recipe in the book is a plain crema version, but they decide also to make a vanilla version to compare the two), tarragon tuiles, chocolate pudding, ice citron vodka chocolates, and honey caramels. They give themselves four hours to complete the recipes, which unlike cooking recipes is spent primarily in letting the desserts set. For the caramels, they taste test various types of honeys. And they test saucepans for heat distribution and how well they stand to physical abuse.
- Wolfgang believes he has Michael Gary's role in the attempted bombing figured out, and how he has been able to keep witnesses, such as Sonya, at bay. Through it all, Sonya goes missing, of which Norman is most concerned. He realizes that the effects of the drugs may have caused her initial reaction of running from him, but he does fear for her safety in every way from those who have been controlling her. Meanwhile, Rufus and Cosmo enter into negotiations now that both Andre and Shorts are out of the picture. Rufus doesn't tell Lana the full nature of those discussions, most specifically the drug side of things and his role in what happened between Andre and Shorts, but he does bring her into the fold of the plan. Both Rufus and Cosmo know that Alonzo may be a problem as Andre's heir apparent and someone who was loyal to him. Sproule, Lily and Al each make their next moves in their personal/professional maneuverings, with some of those moves meant to be the last ones in their short games. The question thus becomes whose final move will trump whose? And Mei Mei learns that what she thought were her secret dealings with Rufus were not so secret.
