Detectives Briscoe and Logan investigate the death of Mildred Bauer who is found in her ransacked apartment. She was found alone by her friend Edna Hodge but her granddaughter Laura had hired a woman, Maria Gonzales, to care for her. Maria however claims that Laura fired her just a few days prior to the old woman's death. The medical examiner determines that she starved to death and Maria claims it was Laura who told her to restrict her diet. When the police learn that Laura inherited her grandmother's apartment, she's charged with murder. The defendant insists that her grandmother wanted to die and ADA Stone has to decide whether to pursue the murder charge.
