In the ongoing investigation into the death of Heidi Ellison, the murder weapon--a 100-year old knife--is found and turned into the police. The knife was found near a small airport where Ellison's ex-husband Eddie Newman took a private plane to Los Angeles on the night she was killed. After the police find her blood in Newman's car, they issue an arrest warrant for Newman. Briscoe and Curtis head back to LA, where they arrest him. But Newman's lawyers--who include Jamie Ross' ex-husband--contest his extradition, thus forcing McCoy and Ross to fly to LA to argue their case. Meanwhile, Curtis gets a job offer from studio executive Lisa Lundquist--and the offer of a relationship.
