Danny takes on a personal case involving drug cartel leader Louis Delgado (Lou Diamond Phillips), whom Danny believes is responsible for torching his former house. Delgado smugly admits to being behind the deed, while also hinting that the cartel may have had something to do with the death of Danny's wife Linda. Danny goes against protocol to nail Delgado but ultimately cuts him loose in front of a drug bust, making him look like a snitch; this ends up in Delgado's murder the following morning. Erin is given a promotion in the DA's office but finds herself in a challenging situation when both Danny and Jamie ask for her help in their investigations. Jamie and Eddie investigate an arson fire, where Eddie narrowly escapes serious injury. Also, Frank and Jamie have a disagreement when Jamie refuses to stop riding with his fiancée; Jamie later reveals to his father that he passed the sergeant's exam at the top of the list, intending on taking the promotion.
