A drug raid leads to the arrest of Tyrone Weeks and Patricia Spence. Patricia has an infant baby girl who is remanded to child welfare.

2. Ill-Gotten Gaines
The suspicious death of Tyrone Weeks sparks outrage in the black community. Mayor Plank confronts Kendrick about LaRusso's history as a wild card, fueling his hatred of the mayor even further. Hollander feels it's time for Frank to get back out on the street and assigns Gaines as Frank's new partner. Gaines cannot stand the rookie, especially since Gaines likes to sing Motown hits in the patrol car.
3. Happy Mudder's Day
Potts and Larusso are taken off the drug case, so Larusso gets down and dirty, using his mud-wrestling girlfriend to set up a bust. Mayor Plank goes under the surgeon's knife to improve her political profile.
