After two cops are implicated in a controversial shooting that kills an upstanding black teen and also hurts his drug-dealing cousin, Sebastian is put in charge of the case. To find the answers to his questions, he must use an accusatory approach toward the two officers, but it doesn't take long for Isaac to disapprove of Stark's way of doing things. Add a recap »

  • Mayor Delgado: Since the cops hate your guts, no one is going to question the integrity of this investigation.
    Stark: You know, I think there's a compliment in there somewhere. edit »
  • Ray Tillman: Well, I've seen how you treat cops on the stand. Department's lost some good men because of it.
    Isaac: Uh, Detective, right now, we're not the ones you need to worry about.
    Stark: I think what he's saying is that half the city wants to bury you. Now, if you talk to me and tell me everything, I might be able to help you. And trust me, you want my help. edit »
  • Terry Burns: You're the guy who planted on that rich scumbag who killed your partner.
    Isaac: This isn't about me. edit »
  • Stark: (to Ferris) Word of advice - keep your mouth shut until you hire a lawyer. And if I were you, I'd watch my back at the police station. Not your biggest fans. edit »
  • Julie: I really need to make this to go away.
    Boyd Bergdorf: You're a minor. You blew a .06. The only way this is going away... get your dad's office to lose the file. edit »
