Plot Outline:
Rush is called in to investigate a 14-year-old unsolved homicide of a woman who was murdered in front of her child. A court appointed psychologist approaches Rush regarding one of his clients, Sean, a troubled 17-year-old boy who's been lost in the foster care system since he witnessed his mother Rebecca's murder 14 years ago. The teen has recently been suffering intense nightmares about the incident and the psychiatrist asks Lilly to re-open the case to finally give Sean closure. As Rush and Valens investigate, they realize Sean's dreams match key pieces of evidence from the crime. In addition, by contacting Rebecca's family and friends, Rush and Valens learn that she and Sean were living on the run, seemingly from one of the men in her past.
