I was originally only going to give a 10 to 2-4 and 6-5 but I just felt like it for this one. It's so awesome. I love the setting, I love the characters, the villain is one of the best ever, the murder is memorable, everything about this case is just so fun and perfectly paced (I do KINDA agree with the issue of Rimes stepping aside right after his transformation, and I wish we had like one more cross-examination with him, but it's not that big a deal). I love that this case deliberately plays off the expectations of a long-time veteran of the series - they set up Herman Crab so perfectly as a decoy villain by introducing him on day 2 and making him seem shady, then pulling the rug out from under you when it turns out he IS shady but for good reasons. I love the twist of the murder being an accident. It's the best non epic case by a mile, it's exactly what a filler case should be.

You realize you're named after a cleaning product, right?
