Bayliss and Pembleton investigate the case of someone buried alive, and are drawn into a society calling themselves the Sons of the Silent Service, led by Nelson Broyles (Creator/JohnGlover), who runs a spy paraphernalia shop. Kellerman and Munch get a road rage case, where a state-owned maintenance vehicle ran another vehicle into a truck, killing both drivers and leaving the passenger of the private vehicle (the wife of the dead driver) paralyzed. Since the wife has filed suit against the state, Dr. Cox gets pressured by her boss to change the blood alcohol level of the driver of the passenger vehicle so the state won't be liable. Not only does Dr. Cox refuse, she arranges to leak the story to the press, and as a result, gets fired. Falsone loses his custody battle, but ends up making up with his ex-wife to the extent she allows him to keep their son for a week.
