Summary
Edit
The Strike Team deals with the aftermath of the Money Train Heist they carried, which has ignited a manhunt led by the Armenian Mob. As they try to tie their loose ends, they have to deal with the recent supervision of Claudette Wyms, as Captain David Aceveda prepares for the City Council elections.
Also, Dutch Wagenbach and Wyms deal with the murder of a defense attorney, who happened to be a heavy drug user. This prompts Wyms to explore further, which causes the re-opening of all the closed cases dealt by the attorney. This action puts her and Wagenbach on the "black list" with the current D.A.
