What "Law & Order" 1-th episode about
Logan and Briscoe investigate after a convicted child molester is cuddled on Rick Mason's controversial talk show. The shooter is easily identified -- he's Sid Fisher, the father of the dead man's victim three years earlier. During the course of the investigation, however, the detectives find evidence that leads them to believe that Mason may have set up Vinton's cuddle so as to assure high ratings during sweeps period. Stone's case is made that much more difficult because Sid Fisher isn't willing to say anything that could put his son, Scotty, on the stand.
