John, Jackson, and Chen are working the gun buyback program. An older lady has brought all of her father’s guns from the war in. John opens up the guns and finds a landmine. They are in disbelief. She has more in the car she tells them. A loud explosion is heard outside.

John cannot believe his ex is selling the house. He thought his son was going to raise his family there, John tells his landlord. He gets a call to report to the precinct. The rookies have a special assignment today with their TO’s – helping control the city while the Vice President comes to town.

John gets a special assignment. He needs to check up on a class 2 suspect who has been threatening the VP of the United States. He and Talia arrive at the address. Stanley, their person of interest, has flare guns on him. They take him down.

While trying to control the streets and the crowd, Jackson gets thrown up on and Chen gets a needle in her when 2 homeless women get into a fight. Chen is in shock. Tim pulls it out and they head to the hospital.

Jackson keeps making calls to his mother but won’t tell Angela why. They head to a residence to have a banner taken down. Inside they find more than a dozen immigrants living. Angela is angry and takes the owner’s license. She will be back to charge him tomorrow. She knows he is taking advantage of these poor people who won’t report him.

John and Talia get their next assignment. They need to relieve all the officers on duty trying to patrol. Talia takes the assignment happily. John doesn’t know what is going on with her.

Angela and Jackson head to the next residence to get them to take down the obscene banner someone is paying people to put up. The woman doesn’t want to take it down. She needs the money. Angela tells her she just became aware of the code violations by the owner so there is no reason she won’t be given a break on her rent. The woman smiles.

In the street full of traffic a man gets out with a gun, angry with road rage. He is trying to scare a man when his weapon goes off. John and Talia get the scene under control right after the gun goes off accidentally. A woman in a nearby car has been shot. They call 911 and try to suppress her bleeding. She dies quickly.

Talia is upset. She snaps at John when he asks her if she is all right. She apologizes. She has been seeing a therapist. John commends her.

Tim checks in on Chen who cannot stop looking on bad things on Web MD. He talks her down and they head out to work more while they wait to hear her results.

Jackson and Angela come across a woman in distress inside one of the apartments. They break down a door. An elderly woman is tied to a chair. Her son comes home. She has dementia and he cants afford to have someone watch her. They cuff him for abuse.

Chen sees a woman in the bathroom crying. Her brother was in a car accident. The woman leaves. Chen notices a bottle of chemicals on the floor of the bathroom stall where the woman was. She heads to find the woman. She is at her brother’s bedside ready to inject the chemical into his neck. Chen raises her gun and tells the woman to stop. The woman tells her that this is what her brother wanted. Just as she pushes the needle into his neck, Chen tases her. The woman drops to the ground. She didn’t push the plunger.

Jackson confesses to Angela that he hasn’t talked to his mom since before the academy. Meanwhile, John and Talia come upon a robbery at a weed dispensary. They call for back-up and are told it will be delayed. They move in slowly. They grab the driver. He cooperates and tells them 3 are inside. The men come out seconds later. Gunfire erupts. The driver gets shot. Jackson and Angela arrive to help after the captain tells them to stay put. They take the driver to the hospital while Talia and John stand by and continue to exchange gunfire. They finally get the men out. Meanwhile, Angela can’t get them to the hospital fast enough. Traffic is blocked.

At the hospital. Jackson sees Chen and waits with her. Jackson confesses that his mother hasn’t spoken to him because he chose to start the academy instead of donating a kidney to his sick brother. Chen comforts him. She gets the news that she has a staph infection and nothing more.

John, Jackson, and Chen all share dinner and talk about their day, making jokes about their day. Henry has sent John a package, it is the door jam from their house that shows his childhood heights. John is thrilled.

THE END!
