The episode is the eighth from season five, and sees Humphrey, and sees Humphrey look into the mysterious death of a student backpacker whose death points to suicide - but of course not all as it seems. The episode also sees JP prepare to tie the knot as Florence encourages Humphrey to go after a former flame. Ah, memories!
