Plot Summary for
"The Listener" Captain Nightfall (2012)

With Toby (Craig Olejnik) grieving Olivia's death, Oz (Ennis Esmer) tries to shift focus by asking about his current case - a string of violent home invasions that have left citizens on edge. Meanwhile, when a curious neighbor tries to thwart another robbery, he's confronted and beaten by the masked thieves only to be rescued when a third man intervenes before disappearing in a cloud of smoke. At the hospital, Michelle (Lauren Lee Smith) and Toby talk to the victim, who doesn't remember much. Toby concentrates and is surprised to see visions of the third man wearing a superhero outfit. Anxious to placate the terrified public, Klein (Peter Stebbings) presses Michelle, Dev (Rainbow Sun Francks) and Toby to find a connection between the crimes. As Toby searches the mug shot database for a match on the victim's visions of his assailant, Michelle discovers the homeowners were all supposed to be vacationing when the break-ins occurred. Toby contacts reporter Tia Tremblay (Melanie Scrofano) and learns there have been reports of a costumed guy roaming around town. With the help of Oz and the other on-duty EMTs, Toby gets a location for the mystery man. When they arrive on scene, their supposed superhero is badly beaten and stumbling. But before collapsing, he identifies himself as Captain Nightfall. Written by Shaftesbury
