[Horatio is confronting the corrupt judge in his chambers]
Lieutenant Horatio Caine: Marta Argenta was your daughter, Your Honor.
Chief Judge Joseph Ratner: Sorry Lieutenant, that name doesn't ring a bell.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine: She was murdered and buried on a property.
Chief Judge Joseph Ratner: Now Caine, where'd you dig that up?
Lieutenant Horatio Caine: Gary Logan's backyard, your honor.
Chief Judge Joseph Ratner: Now that's what happened to that girl! She did call a few times, yes, said she was my daughter. But why should I believe a teenage runaway...
Lieutenant Horatio Caine: [cuts him off angrily] That's why you paid Gary Logan to have her killed.
Chief Judge Joseph Ratner: All right Caine, that's enough. I've had enough of your accusations, you get out of my chambers!
Lieutenant Horatio Caine: I hate to inform you, your honor, that these are NO LONGER your chambers.
Chief Judge Joseph Ratner: [smugly] Now you know there's no way you're gonna prove all this in court.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine: Gary Logan held onto Marta's body for just such a reason, so you see, I can.
Chief Judge Joseph Ratner: [sneering] Caine, you oughtta know better than that. You can't touch me.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine: Your Honor, I don't have the slightest desire to.
[2 police officers move to either side of the judge, and pull his hands behind his back to handcuff him]
Lieutenant Horatio Caine: You're under arrest.
Chief Judge Joseph Ratner: [as he is being handcuffed] Don't think this is over, Caine. I got the best legal mind there is.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine: You're going to need it.
[Horatio watches as the small group of officers marches the handcuffed judge out to their cars for transportation to jail]
Have you ever noticed how developers are always the bad guys on television shows? They are always shown as heartless pigs who are needlessly evicting people, usually poor and of color. This is different in that fairly affluent white people are being tossed from a decent neighborhood from some bigwig named "Preston" who wants to make a (financial) killing. Along the way, writers put in a cheap shot against capitalism, too. (I wonder if they feel the same when they get their huge weekly paycheck?)
Anyway, Ryan Wolfe is the main man in this case, which begins with an interesting scene about "bloaters," people who have been dead for about four days and will literally burst from the inside out if a medical examiner doesn't "pop" them. It's gross, but it was interesting.
The story was okay; nothing extraordinary, and very computer-enhanced visually, but that's fine with me. I like the stylish look, even if it's obvious in some scenes (check the hues on the skies all the time). It's still, I assume, the most colorful show (literally) on TV.
