* MistakenForAliens: Louis Scripps mistook ''himself'' for an alien, as he read an ancient description of them that "matched" his physical description. Coupled with the fact that he believed [[AncientAstronauts Aztecs could communicate with aliens]] with sacrificed, it led to him killing Burt so his "alien brothers" would come for him.

[[caption-width-right:350:'''Amy:''' Archaeology! I love that stuff! Ancient ruins, mummies, adventures!]]
Chief Marquez sends Amy and the player to stop famous archaeologist Burt Montana, who has been destroying private property and natural landscapes while looking for a lost temple without permit. When they arrive to his archaeological dig, though, they only find Burt's body tied up and with his heart removed sacrifice-style.
!!Tropes:

*AncientAstronauts: According to Louis, the aliens helped the Aztecs shape their civilization, which makes him believe the temple is connected to outer space. Later during the Additional Investigation, Hannah and Zuma tell you the exact same thing.
*AncientArtifact: Burt was looking for the ancient temple because he wanted to find an Aztec statue that supposedly grants the wielder great power.
*ArtifactOfDoom: According to professor Howard Haggard, the ancient Aztec statue that Burt stole from the temple has the power to destroy the world, hence why he begged Burt to stop looking for it.
-->'''Howard:''' ARGHHHHH! The statue of the Aztecs! We're doomed! That statue will kill us all, cities will crumble, oceans boil! It will end the world!!
*AttackOnTheHeart: The victim was killed by having his heart removed.
*BeatStillMyHeart: According to Roxie, the victim had his heart removed while it was still beating.
*TheCollector: Otto Schmetterling, a famous art collector who paid the victim a box full of gold for an ancient Aztec statue, which is why Burt was looking for the temple in the first place.
*CompetitionFreak: The reason why Burt and his ex-wife Pearl Montana got divorced was because they both wanted to be the best archaeologist in the world, which led to competition and fights between them.
*ContinuityNod: During Louis' trial, Judge Dante claims [[Recap/CriminalCasePacificBayCase35StarCrime he still doesn't have jurisdiction to rule on inter-galactic matters.]]
*EinsteinHair: Doctor Howard [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/2_106.png has it.]]
*FirstContact: The reason why Louis Scripps became Burt's assistant then sacrificed him was because he wanted to contact aliens.
*HollywoodNatives: Zuma Tlatoani, the leader of the Aztec tribe living in Pacific Bay, dresses like an stereotypical native, though he's quite polite and far from savage.
*ImportedAlienPhlebotinum: Both the talking statue and the crystal skull you find in the archaeological dig are, according to Hannah and Zuma, made from alien technology
-->'''Amy:''' Oh no, you're not going to tell us you think aliens made the skull, are you?! Hannah, aliens don't exist!
-->'''Hannah:''' Then how do you explain the glowing, floating, talking statue?! I'm telling you, there are weird things happening around here!
*InstantlyProvenWrong: When Howard learns about Burt's death, he happily remarks how the Aztec statue will now be safe in the temple just before before Amy shows it to him, leading to Howard freaking out.
*InVinoVeritas: Burt got Zuma drunk on tequila so he would give Burt information leading to the lost temple, so Zuma put a curse on him with a painted skull in retaliation.
*TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: When you discover professor Howard tried to blow up the temple so the Aztec statue would remain forever lost, he asks if "is crazy to try save mankind, to care, and to put chilis in your coffee instead of milk."
*LivingStatue: During the investigation, the Aztec statue Burt took from the temple starts talking in Aztec language, leading to everyone in the department freaking out.

Coupled with the fact that he believed [[AncientAstronauts Aztecs could communicate with aliens]] with sacrificed, it led to him killing Burt so his "alien brothers" would come for him.
*NoodleIncident: Judge Dante recalls how, as a kid, he told his friends he could fly until one of them made him prove it.
*NoSuchThingAsSpaceJesus: Zuma tells you the Aztec people's Gods and aliens are the same, as they're the ones who brought their technology and helped the Aztecs centuries ago.
-->'''Zuma:''' This skull is a representation of our Gods. It was created with the technology they brought us from the stars, to remember them until the day they come back...
-->'''Amy:''' From the stars?! Wait, your Gods came from the stars? You're saying they were... aliens?
-->'''Zuma:''' Aliens, Gods... Their names may vary, but they came to the Aztecs and offered them knowledge. My people will forever be grateful to them.
*RaceAgainstTheClock: When the Aztec statue starts to talk, it tells the Department to solve the murder before sunset or else more people will die.
*ShoutOut:
** The case's storyline is largely based on ''Franchise/IndianaJones''.
*** The victim, Burt Montana, is a parody of Indiana Jones.
*** The title, and the manner in which the victim died (heart removal), refer to ''Film/IndianaJonesAndTheTempleOfDoom''.
*** Indiana's trademark hat can be found in many of the scenes.
*** A [[Film/IndianaJonesAndTheKingdomOfTheCrystalSkull crystal skull]] is put together in the Additional Investigation.
** In the Archaeological Dig scene, there is a hat similar to the one worn by [[Film/RaidersOfTheLostArk René Belloq]].
** In the Victim's Office scene, there is a picture resembling [[Film/IndianaJonesAndTheLastCrusade Henry Jones]].
*TempleOfDoom: The case centers around an ancient Aztec temple the victim was trying to find. You stumble upon it during the Additional Investigation, only to discover the victim and the killer had already been inside.
*TheyCallMeMisterTibbs: Zuma berates Amy for calling him Mister Tlaotani instead of Chief Tlaotani.
*UnusualEuphemism: According to Howard, Burt threatened to take his [=PhD=] thesis and shove it up his "lost temple" if he kept bothering him.
*WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Amy is revealed to be afraid of snakes in this case when you examine a reptile tank.
*WoundedGazelleGambit: When you speak to Louis, the killer, he seems distraught and even cries about Burt's death, recalling all the adventures they had together.
