Tropes

  • Deadly Bath: The first Body of the Week is drowned in her hot tub after first having been stunned by being electrocuted.
  • Electrified Bathtub: The killer pushes a boombox into the hot tub of the first Body of the Week. This does not kill her but stuns her so the killer can hold her head underwater till she drowns.
  • Murder the Hypotenuse: A woman kills her husband because she was having an affair with her sister-in-law.
  • Sexy Shirt Switch: The morning after Jane and Casey are reunited, Jane comes out to breakfast wearing nothing but a white business shirt and panties.
  • "Strangers on a Train"-Plot Murder: Two angry spouses who wanted their significant others out of the picture trade murders. They show a remarkable degree of Genre Savvy, agreeing never to contact on phone or computer, leaving no traceable trail of their connection. They plotted together at an exclusive dog park where they walked their dogs. The identifiable dog hair left at a scene is what trips them up.
