Great episode nice ending getting fire brigade to get the shoes out of the line but what kind father make his son dress in women underwear as punishment that taking it a bit too far. I thought he good job being solo first time but we also saw what happens when you don't have a partner riding with you.

Good episode i liked what he did with the guys ipod when he was on the escalator and that was a nice find on the bed. Taking photos of the gang member was risky but see managed to talk her way out of that tricky situation but then getting high with the kid and loosing her computer and camera was stupid

Yes that guy didn't bother look around to see if there were cops around and money was nice all because girls were fighting outside-teach you a little bit about police producure i mean putting a blanket over it wasn't best hiding place..  That was tough call with that kid shooting those boys who were giving him a beat down

That was a great rescue at the bank using the car and their vests to get the wounded cop and talk about a close call while waiting for the DNA result but the extra backup at the garage was amusing

I thought Ben allowing him to hang on to the gun untill he got a legal one was the right decision it's just a shame he used it and that was a believable story about the original chainsaw accident

Sherman making a few mistakes but the guy running with his handcuffs and falling flat on his face was funny and arresting the gut in his underwear was impressive until he jumped out of the ambulance but what a tragic ending
