 Shark s team takes the case against Dr. Mitchell Sterling, a fine surgeon whose wife Yvonne Sterling went missing thirteen days ago, even though the corps isn t found. Casey gets a go as co-chair, as he will look best against the father, but this trial proves everything but a joyride. Their theory was based on Yvonne s blood on a carpet, phone records and Sterling s little boy Ethan s statement he heard his mother but didn t tell anyone because he wasn t supposed to be awake that late, but the kid retracts the statement. When the body is finally found, it doesn t quite match either, however the team does a good job as to establishing a motive, again with a disappointing twist. Shark perseveres, and decides to make the boy testify in court anyhow...
