Delko (Adam Rodriguez) arrives when the boat is found and Horatio points to the presence of human flesh on the propeller. The owner, Dylan Perez (Diego Serrano) turns up and says he left the keys in his boat when drunk and reported it missing this morning. Delko finds grease on the steering which Dylan knows wasn't there in the night. This grease is used in cars and trucks and not boats.
Calleigh (Emily Procter) and Delko arrive at the Vic's house to break the news to his son Sean (Matt Angel). He is a speed racer and he was heard to argue with his father. His father was a stickler for rules and didn't want Sean to cheat in the race. He directs them to their neighbour, Connie (Cassidy Freeman) who tried to poison his dog with chocolate. When they arrive at her house, Delko notices the chocolate wrappers in the bin and she tells them she wouldn't hurt Henry. He was sweet but she had enough of the dog barking.
Connie is also a prostitute and tells them she has an alibi, Henry's colleague Will Kingsley (Danny Nucci). He tells Ryan (Jonathan Togo) that Henry was good at his job and he was working on something that affected him. They should talk to their boss, Jane Caldicott (Reshma Shetty). Will also tells them they never throw anything away so they have a lot of files to check through.
Calleigh goes to Henry's house again and finds a bag which contains his shoes covered with green paint. Ryan and Sam (Taylor Cole) analyze the files and Ryan suggests instead of going through each file they should see which one has most of Henry's prints on it. They narrow it down to one file, Henry's prints and Jane's are on the file. But only Jane's prints are inside the file, so she's been replacing papers. Sam analyzes the paint to find it has a compound of copper, chromium and arsenic.
The owner Bob Scherner (Wolfgang Bodison) tells them to leave but Sam has a search warrant enabling them to collect soil samples. Bob calls in his lawyer who tells him not to answer questions. So they set their sights on Jane. Bob bought land cheaply and then sold the houses for a premium. Jane denies all this but she was about to make a deal with him and thus the paperwork in the file was altered. Henry found out but she claims she would have written him a cheque. Don't think Henry would have been bought at all.
Walter (Omar Miller) and Tripp (Rex Linn) bring in Henry's car and they hear a phone ring. Funny how each of them looked at each other, do they all have the same ring tones on their phone. The phone is Henry's and he has a voice message from a boy claiming he's been taken. All surveillance videos are checked by Dave (Wes Ramsey). Henry spoke to a boy outside a cafe after he was sick. The boy was taken by a man who said he was his father and Henry followed them. He was cut off by a driver. Dave and Walter manage to make out the last numbers on the plate. Henry also uses his bluetooth and a 911 call was made to report the boy's kidnapping.
Walter manages to find the number plate on the video and the car is found. It belongs to another car and then he and Horatio notice the truck taking away another car. Inside is a bag with the boy's ticket, a one way flight from Nicaragua, laxative and a phone. Horatio posits the boy is being used as a drug mule and they must find him before he is skilled.
The tow truck driver at first claims not to remember, then says the man had a tattoo and drove into a diner. Walter and Horatio find the boy and Horatio threatens to shoot the kidnapper. Who refuses to tell them anything; with Horatio in his threatening stance once again. Delko gives the name of a friend who can help him find work, since the driver was fired. Then notices grease on his sleeve. Delko finds that this was the same driver who had gotten in Henry's way and Henry had reported him. The driver was fired for his driving and followed Henry since he gave his name. He took the boat out and killed him, cos he lost everything.
Well he's lost even more now, didn't think of that. Horatio tells him he murdered someone he didn't even know. Ryan catches Sam looking at his bracelet and suggests they go for a drink as they closed the case. However her boyfriend arrives from the State Attorney's Office and she suggests they go for a drink together. Ryan is clearly heart broken. Well that's another blow for him, first it was when he thought Delko was after Sam and now this. So why'd she take the bracelet when Delko told her it was from Ryan and not even thank him for it.
Calleigh visits Sean and tells him his father was a hero. He saved a boy, he saved the lives of people who would have lived on that development. Sean is proud and finally finds tears for his father which he couldn't before.
The title of this episode says it all, 'no good deed,' goes unpunished. So for all Henry's good deeds he had to have one catch up to him. Turns out it was being killed by someone who he didn't even know, cos he was trying to help save a boy's life. Natalia (Eva La Rue) was missing this episode.
Felt like this episode was a nit disjointed with the team running around separately ad having less interaction that usual. Ryan and Walter didn't have any scenes this episode together. Also Calleigh playing her 'caring' mother role again this episode as she tells Sean about his father being a hero in an attempt to get him to grieve.
