Goofs

It would take Serena at least a decade to go through the NYPD system and hierarchy to make detective and then become eligible for Major Case. There would be several dozen detectives already in line for the limited slots and she would have to wait for them to be hired, retire or die before she could reasonably expect to be assigned to that unit.

User Reviews

Aga khan told him that Allah would change it to water as it touched their lips.

The story continued from the last episode: shortly after the last arm dealer still alive was released, Det. Goren was suspended due to the fact he kept on investigating despite the case was in the hand of FBI. This last dealer was killed as well by the Somali ring and there was nobody left who could witness what was going on. During this episode, we are enlightened by some more information about the ring leader: he is the great grandson of a man who fought against England army, he had at least 40 siblings and, unknown by his sister, he was attending the seventh wedding of their father. Later on anyway we figure out that it isn't what it seemed and religion it's just an excuse.

A new detective, Serena Stevens (played by Saffron Burrows), joins the team from Chicago. She's fluent in French and Urdu (due to his father's job as a diplomat in Pakistan), so she's able to read in Arabic (Urdu and Arabic share the same alphabet).
