This episode of Law And Order has Paul Sorvino and Chris Noth investigating a case of murder of a high achieving Chinese high school student. Investigation reveals that the murder was done by the mother and older brother of another kid from that high school who did not want their son to be number two to one of those yellow people.
The odd thing here was that their younger boy was friends with the deceased and didn't regard academic rivalry as a blood sport. He's truly torn with what happened.
There's a little conflict here with what a very hypertechnical judge calls a bad search warrant which yields the murder weapon. Comes close to derailing Michael Moriarty's case.
Best scene in the episode was Sorvino and Noth interrogating a Chinese gang member. The deceased was ever so briefly a gang member and he was let out of the gang which is not usually done. The gang kids saw that this young man's success could only impact positively on the whole neighborhood. The one interrogated does not miss the irony of the situation.
One to check out.
