Briscoe and Green's latest case involves the death of a hospital patient named Marjorie Hallenbeck, who was beaten and hit her head on a table, causing her death. Because her expensive jewelry is missing, the detectives look into a hospital orderly with convictions for burglary. This leads them to discover that the victim, whose elderly husband has Alzheimer's Disease, was having an affair with Raymond Quinn; a conman who targets wealthy older women. When a witness confirms the jewelry disappeared hours before the murder (thus Quinn would have no reason to go back and kill Mrs. Hallenbeck), the detectives question the victim's daughter Lisa. Lisa says that upon finding out her mother gave Quinn the jewelry, she hit Mrs. Hallenbeck, who fell over and died. But this story does not add up, and a closer look at the corpse shows the bruises match the imprint of Mr. Hallenbeck's wedding ring. He is arrested.
It is difficult to know how lucid Hallenbeck was at the time of his wife's death. Skoda interviews him, and Hallenbeck confesses to hitting his wife because he knew about her affair. The defence files a motion to dismiss on the grounds that the conditions he'd be kept in would amount to cruel and unusual punishment. After seeing how ill-equipped the prison system is to cope with inmates like Hallenbeck, Carmichael and [=McCoy=] agree to try and find a more humane solution. However, given that they know Hallenbeck was in control of himself when he killed his wife, they cannot support an insanity defence. Furthermore, Lisa is adamant her father needs her and can't be allowed to go to jail.
[=McCoy=] convinces a judge to deny the defence's motion to dismiss, and the judge rules Hallenbeck is fit to stand trial. Rather than put him through a trial and potential conviction, his lawyer arranges with [=McCoy=] to put Hallenbeck in a halfway house where he'll at least have somewhat better medical care. When Hallenbeck testifies to the judge that he killed his wife because she refused to stay in the marriage and take care of him, the judge agrees to this sentence.
