Summary

 * “Every Silver Lining...”

Miami Metro Homicide is trying to find Lyle Sussman, who has become the main suspect in the Brain Surgeon murders after his fingerprint is found on duct tape covering a victim’s mouth.

Sussman isn’t at his house, so Angel Batista and Joey Quinn visit Sussman's mother, a nice elderly lady. They sit on her sofa, drinking coffee from porcelain cups, while trying to impress upon her the importance of finding her son (but they don’t say why). She hasn’t seen him in days, but says that's not unusual because he’s an avid hunter and is probably off hunting for the weekend. She proudly adds that he always brings back something for “the quilt” and brings out a large furry blanket made from dozens of animal pelts. This causes Batista and Quinn to exchange glances. They then ask her where he goes on the hunting trips and she tells them about his cabin outside the city, but she doesn't know the address.

While Sussman’s mother is in the kitchen, Quinn asks Batista if they can leave because the quilt is freaking him out, and Angel agrees that it’s a “nightmare in fur.” Just then, they receive phone calls from dispatch calling them to a crime scene, where they find a murder victim - El Sapo.

Later, Lyle Sussman is found dead in his cabin.
