Update: I tired to use CAUSALITY_TRACKING, but I am not familiar with it too much and I believe I would have had to add another event like sql_statement_starting and I couldn't figure out how to filter it.

Looking back through requests, though... I found this little gem:

(@0 char(3),@1 decimal(6,2))INSERT [dbo].[TowBatch]([TowBatchStatus], [GeneratedRoute], [Distance])

VALUES (@0, NULL, @1)

SELECT [TowBatchID]

FROM [dbo].[TowBatch]

WHERE @@ROWCOUNT > 0 AND [TowBatchID] = scope_identity()

I believe this to be the culprit. How I love Entity Framework!
