The incorruptible new DA Sam Waterston decides to do a solid for the governor who appointed him. When his name comes up peripherally in a murder investigation, Waterston goes to Governor Tom Everett Scott to give him a heads up. All this does is give impetus to a running feud that starts for several episodes.
Eric Sheffer Stevens who is the spoiled son of gold merchant Len Cariou kills his brother-in-law who now runs the family business. The victim would not let him launder money through the business. Stevens runs a high end escort service and during the investigation it is discovered that Scott is a client.
The Feds even jump into this one as they've got their sights on this governor. The parallels of Scott's character to Elliott Spitzer are too obvious to ignore. The feud between Waterston and his patron starts here and continues over several episodes.
It's a good episode where justice is done for some and postponed for others.
