Storyline

Taylor, one of the models taking part in a 'Bootcamp babes' reality show on a real Marines base, is found dead on the electrified fence. While the director worries only about media impact, Jethro's team finds she was addicted (again) to the drug PCP, and had both a close relative and a lover inside the camp, while model rivalries are ruthless. Her equally addicted boyfriend, is also found dead in a hotel room. Another, non-lethal OD suggests a last plot twist.
