Ed's youth neighborhood protege Anton Burrows' fourth attempt at parole is denied after the daughter of Amiri, the shopkeeper whom he killed during his only hold-up as a teenager, testifies yet again. Shortly after, nothing-to- lose (NTL) prison gang leader Sloan Keller starts a riot and fakes an escape attempt to cover up his main aim: to eliminate his rival gang's leader. Anton gets hold of Amiri's wife and daughter in an attempt to protect them while also trying to help Ed's team.
