Episode Notes

We are introduced to a new color on the case board. Blue for re-opened cold cases.

Bruno Kirby who guest starred in season three’s closer “Gas Man” returns to direct this episode.

Cultural References

Howard and Bayliss are shown to be big fans of daytime soaps. This is an inside joke, because both Melissa Leo and Kyle Secor got started on soap operas.

Episode References

Kay Howard’s belief in the supernatural was first shown in season one, episode two “Ghost of a Chance”.
