Complete story — includes the ending
After a young call girl Sarah Bell (Alice Callahan) is murdered, the investigation leads Detectives Goren and Eames behind the scenes of the fashion industry, with the resident star designer and hard-partying, "rockstar" Nyle Brite ( Jay Mohr ) who is about to launch an Initial public offering to institutional investors. When Brite is shot dead after a disastrous TV interview which sinks the IPO, the detectives look at who stood most to lose: his finance backer, Paul Keller ( Spencer Garrett ), his long-suffering wife Debra ( Noelle Beck ) who is having an affair with his psychiatrist Dr. Samantha Harper (Regina Schneider) and his long-time friend and designer Teddy Scola ( Neal Huff ) who was perpetually under Brite's shadow. The detectives eventually uncover that Bell was Bright's daughter who was seeking to blackmail him and that Scola murdered them both because they had sabotaged the IPO which would have given him the financial stake to launch his own fashion line. Inspired by the substance abuse and legal issues of Charlie Sheen.
