Mother's Day
Emily Milius (Deja Kreutzberg) is out of her element, a Park Avenue private school rich girl in Washington Heights. Exiting a diner after she is "stood up" she is hit by a blue Saturn and killed. It's obvious this was no accident -- based on the tire marks the car was gunning for her. Emily's parents are horrified; she was a perfect student and had a bright future. The Saturn is found abandoned and the driver, Danny Payton, is later found dead. Emily's father, Ronald (Martin Kildare) owns a pharmaceutical company, and is concerned that shady business dealings may have put his daughter's life in danger. Briscoe (Jerry Orbach) and Green (Jesse L. Martin) question Danny's mother, Diane (Ellen McLaughlin), who has a "strange story": she said she had breakfast with her son the day before but based on the medical examiner's findings, he was already dead.
