Maura is arrested after her date at a charity event turns up dead. She has no memory of the date until she gets roughed up in jail by woman who thought Maura was responsible for her arrest. Maura remembers her date blowing a hallucinogen at her, putting her in a trance. Because her guard has ties to Paddy Doyle, she is allowed to use the jail's computers to help find the real killer. Jane, Frost, and Korsak learn Maura's date was connected to a criminal that killed a Brazilian model a few months ago. The date needed Maura's key card to access the dead model's remains. The real killer tried to pin the murder on Maura's date. He used a brass knuckle key chain as a murder weapon, which gets mistakenly handed to Frost at the door of a club. Maura gets released.
