    Storyline

    Edit
    Martinez goes to visit his drug-addicted brother, but finds the superintendent of his building, Hanlan, is a retired cop who is on the take and is forcing the tenants out, and Kelly sets out to prove that Hanlan is responsible for the death of two of the apartment's residents. Meanwhile, Laura's new job as an Assistant District Attorney takes a turn when she's assigned to a case that involves Giardella. Also, the squad deals with Detective Stillwell, a prankster whose jokes in the station house get out of hand. —Anonymous

    • Quotes

      Kevin Sullivan: I'm thinking, Kelly, I'm thinking that maybe there's been a little progress in the police department after all. I remember fifteen years ago a rookie cop walks into a DOA scene, sees his partner taking money off a dead person and putting it into his pocket. And for giving him up, this rookie is hung out to dry by every cop on the job.
