Recap
| Detailed recap of the episode which contains MAJOR SPOILERS. |
| Frank bestows a medal upon two officers for delivering a baby, but only one of them arrives at his office. The other is the son of Sonny Malevsky; he had applied to the NYPD under his mother's maiden name and joined the force to hopefully right his father's wrongs. Frank is deeply appalled by this revelation, not unlike his Dream Team and the family, but after a meaningful discussion with Joe Hill, Frank decides to discipline the officer for lying but keep him on the force as his service speaks for itself. Meanwhile, Danny encounters Trina, a girl who helped him and Baez take down her gang leader named Jaden. When two of her troublemaking friends are stabbed by Jaden who had gotten out on a technicality, Trina takes matters into her own hands but is stopped from killing Jaden and comforted by Danny, who promptly arrests Jaden. Also, Erin and Anthony begrudgingly cross paths with an infamous mob lawyer, and the former is shot at by seemingly one of the lawyer's old clients. The investigation by Erin and Anthony shows that Erin was the intended target of someone she once put away. Elsewhere, Jamie's old friend Allison seeks to interview Henry about his days on the force, and Jamie is immediately suspicious due to the podcast's anti-cop rhetoric. |
