The body of a woman named Mary Gray is found in the trunk of a submerged car, which seems to be linked to a supposed monster inhabiting the nearby lake.
!!Tropes:
*AxCrazy: Alexander Vladinsky, the killer, is ''absolutely insane'', which he demonstrates during his MotiveRant. See LoveMakesYouCrazy below.
*CallBack: [[Recap/CriminalCaseGrimsboroughCase24AnatomyOfAMurder James Savage and his dog]] return.
*FishPeople: The Creature of the Lake resembles one of these, green skin and all.
*LetMeGetThisStraight: James says this word for word when he asks if he's being interrogated just from having a dog.
*LoveMakesYouCrazy: During Alexander's MotiveRant as for why he killed Mary.
-->'''Jones: I don't get it. You kept saying you loved Mary! You sent her all those romantic letters! Why did you kill her then?!
-->'''Alexander:''' Love, passion, murder... those are all so similar, aren't they? Murder... Murder can be the greatest form of desire.
-->'''Jones:''' That's... I don't even know what to reply to that. And what about the costume? If it was a crime of passion, why did you disguise yourself, uh?!
-->'''Alexander:''' But for the romance, of course! Can you picture it? Mary, alone, waiting for me in her white dress... The Creature, creeping up behind her, kidnapping her to take her to it's underwater lair!
-->Can you imagine anything more romantic? I am sure Mary would have approved!
*RightForTheWrongReasons: Ramirez, believing that Mary was killed by The Creature of the Lake who resurfaces every fifty years, tells you that its victims are always kidnapped at the outskirts of town. When you go there, you discover that Mary was indeed kidnapped where the legend says, but that's because the murderer [[ScoobyDooHoax was pretending to be The Creature of the Lake in the first place.]]
*RunningGag: [[Recap/CriminalCaseGrimsboroughCase25TheGhostOfGrimsborough Once]] [[Recap/CriminalCaseGrimsboroughCase26TheSummoning again]], there's people who firmly believes the murder has supernatural origins, Ramirez included.
-->'''Jones:''' Great. Another loony thinking a mythical creature is a suspect in a murder investigation.
*ScaryTeeth: Floyd Russel, one of the suspects, has pointy teeth for some reason.
*ScoobyDooHoax: The Creature of the Lake turns out to be a man wearing a costume. You can't get more Scooby-Doo than that.
*ShapedLikeItself: The creature of the lake is called The Creature of the Lake.
*ShoutOut: The Creature of the Lake looks like the Film/CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon.
*SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: Mary was obsessed with finding a good man for her, so much she actually put ads in the newspaper. Too bad this led her to being targeted by a psycho.
-->'''Elizabeth:''' Mary wanted romance, and look where it led her!
*TemptingFate:
-->'''Jones:''' And, just saying, I still can't see any trace of that silly "Creature" Ramirez and Floyd keep talking... a... bout...
-->'''Jones:''' Did... did something just move over there, in the fog?
-->'''The Lake Creature:''' COWER, MORTALS!
*TrappedInASinkingCar: The victim was killed by being stuffed in the trunk of her car which was pushed onto a lake.
*TrueLoveIsBoring: This is what Elizabeth, the victim's sister, thinks about love, which heavily contrasts Mary's ideals.
-->'''Elizabeth:''' Love is overrated, anyway. I've got money, I'm the mistress of my house, my husband provides for me! Love has got nothing to do with any of it, and yet I'm happier than my sister ever was.
*YouDidntAsk: Floyd saw Mary being kidnapped by The Creature of the Lake but didn't manage to rescue her. When Jones questions why he hid that fact, he responds that you didn't ask.
