Two hotshot young Wall Street executives think they are playing a prank on their buddy when they open the trunk of his Lexus. Little do they know it's the wrong car and there's a dead body. The deceased is Gordon Meeks, who runs a cash heavy bookie business. Briscoe (Jerry Orbach) and Green (Jessie L. Martin) question his associate Steve Strelznik (John Rothman). He lives on the Upper East Side and is the last person you'd expect to be in the bookie business. Strelznik is shocked to hear about Gordon's demise. He explains that they are both employees of First Run Gaming, a company based in Costa Rica. So technically, the high-class clientele thinks they are not really doing anything illegal. They interview a few clients but neither had any motives for the murder.

The death of a show horse seems a more likely case for the ASPCA then Briscoe and Curtis, until a shady horse dealer is accused of selling sick horses to unsuspecting, older investors. Later, Kincaid and McCoy push for a conviction when the horse's owner disappears and is presumed dead.
