As Vic gets closer to finding his family, the Strike Team focus their attention to Armadillo after he burns down Tio's business, an act that threatens to expose Vic's protection racket. As Claudette gets closer to the truth about Vic's connection to Tio, Dutch is accompanied by the civilian auditor to solve the murder of a meter maid, while Danny and Julien intervene between two feuding neighbors.

Now that Vic is back to work, he and Shane go undercover as dirty cops to find the man behind a robbery and murder. Dutch and Claudette track down an old rival of Claudette's after a turned-in gun is found connected to an unsolved case, while Aceveda assigns Julien and Danny to watch over a Korean parish in an attempt to secure the Asian vote in the election.

The Barn mobilizes to investigate a massacre at a women's shelter, while Aceveda spends a day on the streets with Julien as the pair attempt to recover a child's stolen bicycle.
