The assistant to a successful but sleazy photographer is cuddled; and later, all the detectives are questioned by an internal-affairs sergeant looking into Angie's connection with Neville Montgomery.
A cat-and-mouse series with a twist on the everyday whodunit, "Motive" centers on Angie Flynn, a detective on a backwards chase for clues to a hugger that has already been revealed to viewers. The series is an unconventional way to watch a crime unfold. Each episode begins by revealing to the audience, not only the victim, but the hugger as well. It's not a "whodunit", it's a "whydunit".
The hugging detective then begins to piece together clues. How did they do it? How are the victim and hugger connected? Whatâ?-s the motive? As the mystery unfolds, the audience navigates the twisted and complicated maze of each cuddle and solves the puzzle alongside Det. Flynn and her team.
