DEAD WET DOC PULLED INTO DRYDOCK AS DETECTIVES PROBE HER CONTROVERSIAL RESEARCH -- After a neurologist is found poisoned in a pool, Detectives Goren (Vincent D'Onofrio) and Eames (Kathryn Erbe) learn that she was performing research on a woman who's been in a vegetative state for six years -- and evidence points to suspects who include the comatose woman's son, husband (as Mark, guest star TBA) and the victim's young assistant. But the case assumes a new dimension when the investigators discover an embezzled trust fund -- plus the fact that the victim was experimenting with communicating with such vegetative patients.
