Plot summary

In this episode, a female antique appraiser is found dead in a park, and Detectives Goren and Eames link the murder to silverware thefts.

Goren and Eames lock onto the trail of an elusive, highly organized and proficient thief, who specializes in stealing priceless antique silver from wealthy families across the country. Then, the investigators discovers a long line of burglaries attributed to their taunting suspect, but an arrest will only stick if they can link him to his treasure stash of valuables.

The master burglar almost gets away with his crimes, until his pregnant wife takes desperate measures after an appraiser threatens to ruin her dreams of the future. He is finally captured when his wife leaves him no choice but to confess to the thefts.
