While visiting an old friend who runs a Monte Carlo hotel, Jessica investigates the murder of a ruthless businessman with numerous enemies.

Harm's skills as a lawyer are challenged when he defends a female ensign who claims she murdered an officer because her "instincts" told her he meant to hurt her. The ensign claims that when the officer entered her apartment on false pretenses, she felt that her life was in danger. Though the defense is pretty thin – no weapon was even found on the man's body – Mac and Harm decide to stick with the case and are determined to help the ensign remember forgotten details of the event.
