Dr. Tara Lewis : There's been a strange spike in questionable opiate overdose deaths here in Los Angeles, and I think it's worth us taking a look.
Emily Prentiss : We are right now. What do you see?
Dr. Tara Lewis : Well, of the most recent cluster of ODs, there are seven cases that look suspicious. All of them died within 24 hours of completing rehab.
David Rossi : Well, there are a lot of explanations besides homicide, though.
Luke Alvez : Yeah, most addicts go back to their original dose from before they kicked, and their bodies can't tolerate it. They go into shock.
Matt Simmons : Or their heroin could be laced with fentanyl, which is fifty to a hundred times more potent. They only use a little, and that's all it takes to kill them.
Dr. Tara Lewis : Except we're not talking about heroin users here.
Luke Alvez : Arm tied off, fresh needle marks, complete system shutdown. They look like heroin overdoses to me.
Dr. Tara Lewis : I'm talking about the reason they went to rehab in the first place. They all checked in for different problems; cocaine, methamphetamine, alcohol. But after treatment, they all died of a heroin overdose. At least that's the pattern that was presented to me.
David Rossi : That is odd. Most addicts relapse on their original drug of choice.
Emily Prentiss : Tara, who presented this case to you?
Dr. Tara Lewis : Uh... a Dr. Daryl Wright. He's my... he's my ex-husband.
Penelope Garcia : He's your what what what?
