Somebody dies, seemingly by natural causes.
Quincy notices something that causes him to suspect foul play.
He then changes roles from medical examiner to detective, by refusing to release the body and sign off on the cause of death, to Dr. Asten's disapproval. Occasionally, Dr Asten refuses Quincy's requests, to which Quincy argues with his superior before signing off questioning his morals, before he goes back to his (house) boat.
Asten gets upset, believing Quincy is seeing evidence that doesn't exist, and urges the doctor to speedily conclude his investigations and accept the obvious. Asten invariably complains to Quincy that he cannot justify the budget for an extended investigation but is talked round enough to give Quincy 24 hours. Lt. Monahan's feathers are ruffled too as Quincy "shoulders-in" on police territory.
Quincy argues quite loudly with some bureaucratic individual impeding the case.
Quincy asks Sam to "cover for me" while the coroner continues his detective work. This often involves asking his assistant to carry out some laborious and time-consuming tests that take him all night. Sam, who often has to cancel his social activities as a result, grumbles but relents.
Quincy solves the murder, with even the most stubborn bureaucratic officials now also convinced.
All main characters meet at Danny's restaurant at the episode's end to celebrate.
