Summary Three year old Terrence Ellison is found dead by his eight year old sister, Julie, in their backyard from what looks to be a head injury sustained from a fall from the swing. Based on the autopsy, Patricia and Sunny surmise he died from being shaken. On first glance, neither the parents, Ben and Claire, or Julie are capable of committing such a violent act, but the authorities cannot see how it could not have been one of the three that caused the death. Upon a site visit, Family Services is unconcerned about Julie being also physically abused if it was one of the parents. After hearing the news of how Terrence died, Ben is in denial, while Claire questions every move in her childrearing. After Da Vinci takes drastic measures with Julie, the steadfast resolve of the collective Ellison family crumbles when one member admits to what happened. Meanwhile, Shannon and Winston investigate the death of Bobby Symes, who was shot twice in the head. The first leads they have are missed telephone calls on his cell phone from Ed, a photo of his girlfriend Ruby in his wallet, and small amount of dope stashed in his wallet. Both Ed and Ruby don't seem totally forthright in their statements. In fact, both provide misleading and intentionally wrong information. Called on their individual lies by Shannon, both Ed and Ruby tell conflicting stories of what really happened. It isn't until Ruby and Ed get face to face that the truth comes out.
