A very powerful episode here with the gay storyline and it coming full circle for Officer Cooper. They found a way to tackle this issue in a unique way and not how most programs would do it.

The pranks between Bryant and Sherman was a nice storyline for those two. Nothing too serious, but some good comic relief.

And the father who killed his son was another good moral issue, because you have to wonder if he was in the right or wrong.

Some great scenes across the board let to a strong episode tonight.moreless

ADD NOTES
- The song heard at the end of this episode was "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" by Tears for Fears.
  
  Note: Streaming and DVD versions of the episode replaced the song with one commissioned to sound like it—"Time Is Ticking" by Camden Ray Chamberlain—likely due to licensing costs.
