The storyline will show a male model (Ryan Locke) who "has a great career and gets all the ladies" dying from a drug overdose.
A source told Page Six that the plot is "supposed to be about Heath Ledger", adding: "[He] leaves a club with a girl. They have sex and do drugs, and the next morning his friend finds him dead."
NBC's New York-based procedural has a history of taking inspiration from the city's news headlines, with a recent crane accident incorporated into last night's 'Falling' episode.
