Plot
| "I am tired of giving you a pass. This time, you want to keep working here, you're gonna jump through the same hoops as the rest of us." — Captain Gregson to Holmes
|
| Backstage of a Broadway play on the Midnight Ranger, Watson and Detective Bell question the show's producer, Ira Langstrom, about the murder of a critic, Victoria Garvey. Ira absolves himself by showing that he'd bribed Garvey to write a positive review about the play. At The Brownstone, Watson reports her lack of success to Holmes who is staring at a bag on the table in front of him. The bag contains a human head and Holmes says he has no memory of the last six hours nor how he came into possession of it. The last thing Holmes remembers is working on the case of the murdered critic but he can find no link between that case and the head. The head smells of embalming fluid indicating the body it was taken from had been dead for a while. Given the situation, Watson encourages Holmes to tell Captain Gregson about his post-concussion syndrome (PCS) which Holmes assents to do.

| At the 11th Precinct in Gregson's office, Holmes apprises Gregson of the head and his PCS. Angry that Holmes didn't tell him about the PCS earlier, Gregson suspends Holmes from working with the NYPD until cleared by a department doctor. At the Brownstone, Holmes tells Watson of his suspension while she says that Dr. Hawes reported the head had the corneas removed, suggesting an organ donor. Watson recalls that Garvey had a skin graft weeks before her murder. Believing that the head may have belonged to Garvey's skin donor, she meets Bell at the surgical center where the graft was performed. Asking to see Garvey's file, the receptionist Maria says that Holmes was there the day before asking for the same thing. Looking at her file, she says that he asked to see Garvey's donor donation documents.
