In of the most nerve wracking episode ever. It seem that Laura had could have met her match when it comes to going up against one of the most powerful man in New York, but she's Laura Freakin Diamond. She can take anything on.
When a investigate a death of the wife of a national media baron, Wilson Stultz. Laura and the team find that Beth's car in the river, but no body was found, thinking that it might have washed down the river. Laura and Jake talk to Wilson and gives that a biker gang was after him due to a story that his paper put out.
That lead Meredith to show off her biker side and when a situation turned bad for a group of bikers and a driver, Meredith makes an arrested. When the biker was being quested he tells Laura that they didn't make any threats but make a proper papers to sue Wilson and the paper for that story.
As the case begins to moved when Meredith found that the phone call from Beth was a recording and made Laura think that this wasn't a murder but Beth faking her death. Laura finds out and tracks Beth to a motel near the airport.
Beth tells Laura that Wilson been abusing her and know for a fact that he killed his other wife. Laura decided to keep Beth's death as it is. Soon Wilson talks with Santiani about how her detectives aren't doing a great job solving his wife's death. But she played him and gave Laura the go ahead to dig deeper into Wilson place.
It gets very ugly with the press at Laura's house. Laura and the team check's Wilson's house. They look around because it's one of the room's was on a magazine and doesn't change because of it's value. But one painting was missing which was given to a museum. But one final clue helps Laura nail the guy, the fact that Wilson hated his mother.
Laura takes Beth and the ME to Wilson's mother's grave and find that there's two skeletons in the casket. The fact that Wilson killed his first wife, buried her in the backyard and moved the remains to his mother's casket piece by piece.
This episode was unbelievably nerve wracking because of the character Wilson appeared. He's like the Citizen Kane of the 21st Century. I enjoyed it either way. I will say this that I was shocked to see Santiani open up to Laura that she was abused once by her husband, so this case was hard for her. Also Jake asking Laura for a date, I would be happy to see where that would happen or not. I think that Jake deserves a second chance at least.
Overall, I give this episode a 7/10.
Here's a promo for next week's episode.
