As is often the case this episode opens with an episode from young Ned's time at school; this time he and his friend Eugene find a body in the woods; Eugene runs off but Ned wants to solve his first murder so wakes the man; it turns out that he died in an accident but the police don't believe him when they arrive! Surprisingly this is the only person Ned revives this episode as the main case is the disappearance of Dwight Dixon. Emerson turns down the case when Aunt Vivian approaches him as he knows exactly what happened to Dwight and would prefer it if nobody else found out. He didn't expect her to employ his rivals 'The Norwegians' though. Once on the case they begin investigating in forensic detail and once they get an exhumation order for the graves of Charlotte and Charles Charles it looks as if everything will be exposed! Olive meanwhile is getting fed up about being kept in the dark and decides that if she can't work with Emerson she will work with the Norwegians.
This was a fun episode with some good twists; I particularly liked the 'solution' to the Dwight Dixon case. The Norwegians were amusing; I liked their matching Norwegian flag clothing! As always the acting was solid and the conclusion promised to make Emerson's future investigations a little trickier... Ned decided that he would no longer use his skills!
