3/10
One of my favorite episodes

This episode is one of my favorites of the entire series.

Rather than focusing on the ins and outs of police work and the unusual situations officers encounter, this episode focuses on morals and ethics.

I especially like the vignette of what appears to be a mercy killing: the perpetrator just walks into Duke's and sits down next to Malloy, and calmly brings up death and his wife's killing.

After visiting the scene and confirming the man's claim, it's clear Reed and Malloy are facing an unusual situation.

The other vignette concerns attempted bribery. While we know how Reed and Malloy will react it's still entertaining.

I'm so glad that California now has assisted suicide laws in place, so people with life-ending conditions can die with dignity.
