* DudeNotFunny: [=McCoy=] makes a crack to Heinz's attorney about how for $250,000 (which Heinz received from a patient) he would expect two new kidneys at least. The lawyer retorts that not only that is not funny, it's insulting.

Nadia Parkova dies from a heart attack caused by a fatal combination of drugs. The police must now trace a Dr. Heinz, who gave her the painkiller that killed her. It initially appears Nadia did not disclose what other medication she was taking, so Heinz did nothing wrong. But Nadia's mother shows [=McCoy=] and Southerlyn a prescription warning not to take the painkiller within 24 hours of her medication, proving Heinz ''did'' know about it. He is charged with homicide. In court, Nadia's sister Lena reads out the prescription. She misreads "24 hours" as "2 to 4 hours" - the same instructions she translated for Nadia, who didn't speak English. As a result Nadia took the painkillers far too soon, causing her death. Heinz is acquitted.

!!!This episode contains examples of:
* CinderellaCircumstances: Nadia had been working to support her entire family since she was in middle school.
* DeadlyDoctor: Subverted. Heinz is a quack who deliberately gets his patients addicted to prescription drugs so he can keep milking them for money; but he ''didn't'' kill Nadia.
* LeftHanging: Nadia had suffered a series of injuries, and the detectives initially suspect she was beaten by her father or boyfriend. Her regular physician thinks Nadia might have caused the injuries herself in a suicide attempt or in order to get out of her relentless workload - but either way, it's never resolved.
* OnlyBadGuysCallTheirLawyers: Nadia collapses in a store dressing room right after she'd been caught shoplifting on camera. Briscoe brings up this trope when the store employees tell him they contacted their lawyer before calling the police.
* SurprisinglyGoodEnglish: Lena, whose English is even better than Briscoe's. Subverted when it turns out that she wasn't fluent enough to read Nadia's prescription properly ...
