News Anchor Jane Everett was strangled in late 80s initially thought as a random thing but new evidence surfaces in the form of a beta tape showing her talking to her possible killer the night she's died. The team works at finding out what truly happened and why. They look into possible suspects that include her jealous co-anchor. But as it turns out Jane stumbled into something bigger than the fluff pieces she was being given. It turns out to be a corporate cover-up at a plastics factory regarding asbestos exposure to its employees. Great script.

I'm really beginning to doubt Scotty's intelligence and taste in women..Frankie is trouble and it's gonna end up biting him in the butt. Glad to see Jeffries still has the ability to hop a fence or two.moreless
