In this episode, Detectives Goren and Eames are called in to investigate when the eldest son of a powerful radio magnate is found murdered and covered in plastic latex. At first, the detectives believe the crime is connected to a power struggle over the family trust as they focus on the patron's wife, her ex-husband and a mysterious businessman, whom had reasons to want the young man dead. As Goren begin to stitch together the pieces, he suspect a more personal connection between the suspects and find a vital evidence that results in a final conclusion.
