Ep 12. Dead in the Water

When a woman is found dead in a local lake, the team at the Boston Medical Examiner's Office is called in to investigate. With no signs of struggle and no identification on the victim, Jordan (Jill Hennessy) and Nigel (Steve Valentine) must rely on their expertise to piece together what happened. As they delve deeper into the case, they uncover a network of secrets and lies that point to a complicated and twisted motive for the murder.

Meanwhile, Macy (Miguel Ferrer) and Woody (Jerry O'Connell) are called to a restaurant where the owner has been shot dead in front of his customers. As they investigate, they discover that the victim had a history of shady business dealings and a long list of enemies. With so many potential suspects and no clear motive, Macy and Woody must sift through the evidence to unravel the truth behind the murder.

As the two cases unfold, Jordan begins to suspect that the seemingly unrelated deaths may actually be connected in some way. With the clock ticking, she races against time to uncover the truth and bring the killer to justice before they strike again.

In addition to the murder investigations, the episode also explores the personal lives of the characters. Jordan struggles with her growing feelings for Woody, while Bug (Ravi Kapoor) deals with the fallout of his recent breakup. Meanwhile, Lily (Kathryn Hahn) faces a difficult decision when her ex-husband returns to town and tries to reconnect with their daughter.

With its complex cases and well-drawn characters, "Dead in the Water" is a standout episode of Crossing Jordan that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats from start to finish.
