Prisoner (S05E03)

In a story ripped from the headlines, a prison warden Bill (guest star Corbin Bernsen) claims he was brutalized and forced to pay a $50,000 ransom for his long-kidnapped wife, but Detectives Goren (Vincent D'Onofrio) and Eames (Kathryn Erbe) are puzzled when they discover that the missing woman has been happily cohabitating with an escaped prisoner for 10 years. Amid a backwash of lingering secrets and lies, the investigators re-visit the warden's past and recall a famous axiom - follow the money. (iTunes)
