In the season 3 episode 10 of Body of Proof titled "Committed," medical examiner Dr. Megan Hunt (Dana Delany) investigates the death of a patient in a psychiatric hospital. The episode opens with a staff member at the hospital discovering the deceased patient's body, and security footage shows another patient, Alice, entering and leaving the room around the time of the death.
Dr. Hunt is called to the scene and begins to investigate, learning that the victim, Linda, was admitted to the hospital by her husband after a suicide attempt. Linda's husband, Howard, is a wealthy businessman who is eager to move past his wife's death and continue with their plans to build a new sports arena in the city.
As Dr. Hunt and her team begin to uncover more information about Linda's past, they discover a possible connection between her death and the mysterious disappearance of a patient from the same hospital several years earlier. The team also learns that Alice, the patient seen in the security footage, has a history of violence and may be connected to the death.
As the investigation continues, Dr. Hunt faces pressure from Howard and his team of lawyers to wrap up the case quickly and quietly, and she must navigate her own personal struggles as well. Meanwhile, her colleague, Dr. Peter Dunlop, grapples with his own feelings for Megan and tries to support her as she navigates the case.
As the team pieces together the puzzle and confronts the truth behind Linda's death, they uncover a web of deceit and betrayal that puts their own lives at risk. Dr. Hunt must use all of her skills and determination to solve the case and bring justice to the victim and her family.
