What happened in High Potential episode 4?

The episode begins quite dramatically with the kidnapping of two young girls. Morgan and Karadec find the body of the girls' dad, Wendell, buried in his greenhouse. He had been working on projects that may have likely put him against powerful people.

First, the detective focuses on Wendell's well-off father-in-law, Carl Rietman, who has both a motive and a means to commit the crime. This increases the suspicion in light of Rietman's grudge against Wendell and his environmental activism. Morgan gets an important lead when she finds out that the social worker whose report condemned Wendell to death had been bribed.

This twist changes the direction of the investigation to raise further questions about who could be behind the crime. The episode is full of emotional moments, especially when Morgan gets personally involved in the case. Each moment of the episode evinces her stake in solving the mystery and bringing back the girls safely.

In the end, Morgan and Karadec discover all the leads to take them to a dramatic finale of exposure of the actual perpetrator—the driver—as well as the rescue of the girls in safety.
