"Flag on the Play" is the 13th episode of Season 6 and the 130th overall. It originally aired January 20, 2010.
The quarterback of a "Lingerie Football League" team is found dead in their locker room. Sid makes a connection to an out-of-state case.
Tropes for the episode:
- Deadly Bath: The first victim is found floating face down in a hot tub.
- Fanservice: The lingerie football teams' uniforms consist of booty shorts and tight, low cut tops.
- Fanservice Extra: Shots of the ladies playing football in their lingerie "uniforms."
- Wham Shot: During the investigation, Danny spots his grandfather's dog tags (which had been stolen along with his badge in the previous episode), in a pawn shop. He takes them back to the lab & tests them for prints. They come back to Shane Casey, who is supposed to be serving a life sentence for his crimes three years prior.
