‘Rizzoli & Isles’ season 5 spoilers: The case at the center of ‘A New Day’

For “Rizzoli & Isles” fans, we imagine that June 17 really could not come here quickly enough. That is when the series returns to TNT with new episodes, but you don’t have to wait until then to get some details from us about what is coming up.

We posted earlier in the week regarding how the show plans on writing in the death of Lee Thompson Young and the character of Frost. For this article, we’re putting a little more of the focus on the rest of “A New Day,” given that you will not find out much about Frost’s death until the end of the episode. TNT recently released a number of details regarding what you can expect, at least when it comes to everything from a new case to Maura and Frankie trying to figure out where they stand:

“Solving the murder of a jogger takes on even greater urgency when Jane realizes that the motive was theft…of the woman’s baby. As the investigation gets underway, Jane attempts to hide her pregnancy from her snooping mother, and Maura and Frankie face the aftermath of their kiss.”

The purpose of this episode is obviously twofold in that it wants to set up the foundation for the season, while at the same time raise a few questions when it comes to season-long arcs. The second episode in particular will be largely about Young, and we will have a little more on that in the days ahead. Hopefully, the ton of this show can remain the same, at least after they honor one of their fallen actors.
