Finding and Clearing: Wednesday Night Drama

The Mysteries of Laura: "The Mystery of the Dysfunctional Dynasty"

We see a lot more in this week's episode of Laura than just a solving a murder. A relationship might be forming too...

A murder of an elder couple was found by a little girl and her dog. Laura gets called in and searches around. Her and Billy then talks to the girl and dog.

Laura and Billy interview the dance instructor that the couple was at and she told them about a lawyer that was getting them to sign things. So they went to talk to the lawyer, who had some terrible bug bites. Laura helped him to take the itching away.

Later on, Laura and Billy talked to Daniel, the couple's only and gay son, and his boyfriend. After they talked to Daniel, the boyfriend's family seemed to be in question.

Meredith and Billy followed and got to talk to the boyfriend's brother, who was a business man and rude to women. But as soon as him and his bodyguards left, Meredith spotted golf clubs, which is something that could be used as the murder weapon.

Then Laura and Jake planned out a sneak and search, Billy and Meredith were the ones that went in but there were bodyguards by the door.

 So she took plan B which was for her to fool around with the guys and Billy goes in the room searching.

Seeing Meredith in this scene was one of the funniest. The character has really blossomed since the pilot and during this episode we do get to see something brewing between Billy and her.

As Billy search the room, he find out clubs in the closet and he seen blood on it. He then took a sample and got the hell out of there because the guy was coming back.

Later on, Laura and Meredith got the brother and talked to him about the blood on the club. He then talked that those clubs were there at the golf course overnight because of the rain and bugs biting. Laura got the hint that it wasn't him but the lawyer that killed the Daniel's parents.

When they called the lawyer to the station, Laura told him that Daniel asked for him. It was then that Billy and Laura told him that Daniel talked who killed his parents but said that he was the one. He was trying to get his parent's money away from the church.

This episode after being off for more than a week, it felt good to see the show back on. This was more hilarious than dramatic. I feel since the premiere of the series that it's gotten better with it's characters and that the stories are getting better too.

You can catch "The Mysteries of Laura" Wednesday nights at 8/7c on NBC.

Chicago PD: "Assignment of the Year"

After one hell of a week it was last week, it was sure wasn't peaceful this week on Chicago PD. 

As Dawson was working his second job, trying to talk to his soon to be ex-wife about how he would like them to be together. Soon the guy he's watching get's upset about his wife and soon takes him home, but he asked Dawson to stop at the gas station for a pack of smokes.

As Dawson pulls into the gas station, a garbage truck follows too. He then goes in and gets a pack of smokes. He returns with the guy shot to death. 

Voight comes and takes the case off one of the detective. As soon as both Dawson and Voight met with the lawyer, Dawson as only 48 hours to solve the case of he'll have to turn in his badge, gun and everything away. 

As the gang tries to find out about the guy, Al types up for the whole damn episode paper for Dawson. 

Atwater and Burgess, are back together working, following the victim's wife. And Halstead and Erin go to a strip club to talk to someone who knows Taylor. Poor Ruzek, he really wanted to go with Erin, mostly because he wants to visit the club. 

As tensions get a bit high for Dawson. he get the guy called Taylor. He was just part of the the victim's wife's plan, but as Atwater and Burgess lost her. 

She comes back and tells Dawson that she can't be pinned to the crime and gave him papers that prove it. 

But Dawson is still on the team, thanks to Voight and Al with that paperwork that Al was typing for almost the entire episode. 

This episode was great and thrilling. There was humor with Ruzek and his wanting to go to the strip club bit...dirty man. 

But also we get to learn a bit more of Roman and how he is willing to fix the problem that he caused Dawson. I did love how Voight got to talk with him one on one. That was freaky great. 

You can catch "Chicago PD" Wednesday nights at 10/9c on NBC.
