Investigating a crime scene when a tornado hits is a dangerous business. Ryan and Walter are blown away by the ferocity of a Miami storm (literally in the case of one of them), which devastates the trailer park where they’re processing a murder, destroying evidence and hurling the body of a young girl into a tree.
This is no Wizard of Oz pastiche although it features a dog just like Toto. The teenager was bludgeoned to death before the tornado, while Eric later finds a storm chaser impaled through the neck.
It’s a dark, electrifying opening to an episode that inevitably tails off slightly once the visual effects are over.
