Either I'm not as dumb as I think or this was an easy case to see through but I saw what the deal was right in the first few minutes.
Twenty minutes later it was confirmed, although not before a few red herrings that made me question my feelings on who was really the guilty party in this story.
Anyway, several things happen early to make it look like someone is trying to kill a prosecuting attorney. Finally, in the basement of his home, the attorney shoots and kills a burglar, or at least someone who supposedly was burglar.
As we discover, things aren't what they seem with this prosecutor and his wife, who also is a lawyer.
This is another intelligent, well-written episode, and fun to watch.
