Excellent episode involving Linc accused of injuring a small dog by a elderly woman who lives next door. This episode becomes quite intriguing as the motivations of this woman, who seems to be an otherwise upstanding citizen, are quite murky and only become completely unraveled at the end.
Hopkins, in the twilight of her career, gives an outstanding performance. The final meeting between her and Linc is both touching and powerful. This is an episode that definitely remains with you afterwords and deserves to be in the top ten of the series.
The only drawbacks to this episode is an annoying music score that gets overplayed. It is also somewhat of a stretch for the incident with the dog to become front page, headline news as well as the uproar of the entire community since the injury to the pet is not severe and he ends up recovering from it completely.
Grade A-
