The episode concluded a double murder from the previous episode at Ruskin Gardens, where Quinlan was living as part of Haywood’s unique initiative to have the officers live in crime-ridden areas. Quinlan is initially cocky for letting a young parolee named Tyson move into the projects – which is public housing not – but she makes it her mission to prove that the kid wasn’t responsible for the fatal shootings.
