At the local ER, a battered and bruised teenage girl has been brought in by a mysterious man who claimed she'd fallen out of a car.

Then the girl dies--but not before informing social worker Hildy Schneider that the man had her little sister as well. <p/> Mattie's exam reveals forensic evidence of long-term IV drug use and physical abuse, findings consistent with Hildy's suspicion that the girl was a victim of human trafficking.
