Re: Without A Trace
The ep was great, so to give you the gist of it, an artist (Abby) disappears along with a deadly secret, it starts out that she is painting using real people that she kind of serveils and paints them, which per usual of the show, gets some ticked off at her. They go through all that till they come to her Step father, who raised her after her mom died.
They discover that he had been giving money to her ex high school boyfriend (who has a drug habit and after she visits him commits suicide) to help him. At one point Sam asks him a question and he gets defensive and raises his voice, which out of character for sam say "Don't you raise your voice to me, don't you ever raise your voice to me" to which Elena has to jump in between them, and get the info.
To which they learn from the ex boyfriends current, that abby had been there discussing some secret they had they fought and abby left. The secret turns out that they accidently killed someone and covered it up.
Abby (the artist), Ian (the junkie boyfriend), Adam (his friend) and Marsha (a new friend they barely know) are at this bridge, the idea is that you step up being guided by someone you love keep your eyes shut take a step or two and keep your eyes shut and feel the wind, after a certain time you open your eyes and get a kiss. Abby and Ian went first, then Adam promised Marsha that he would guide her and she started to get spooked and adam thought it funny to not be there to help her (abby and Ian were yelling at him about it) when Marsha open her eyes and turns to fast and falls off the bridge. they all agree to keep it a secret until Abby can't any longer. See people including her family thought she committed suicide.
She tells her assistant who calls adam, who comes to NY and wants to stop Abby. In the end Sam and the local PD find Abby dead close to that same bridge, it turns out that Adam who married rich didn't want the info out and killed her, as sam looks at her she see's a flash of herself lying there and then a blonde swinging a shovel and someone yelling "Sam what did you do?" fade out.
Also during the ep, Elena and Danny are talking about Elena's daughter going to a show and he wants to get tickets for the three of them and says he will order them and Elena says she thinks he will have a problem, he asks why? she carefully pulls his wallet out of an envalope and he says he wonders where he left that.
It seems to me they are giving more info on sam's background, and they are careful about the Romance between Elena and danny, thing is, without saying it martin indicated that he might know something is going on.
