At the Don Jail, Jess identifies DeMarco's unlikely confidante, a biker named T-Bone, and promises him a break on his own assault sentence if he agrees to act as an undercover agent for the police.

Robbery squad members are known for their violent tendencies and sloppy work ethic, and Ray is no exception.

But when Jess' prime suspect, a skinhead leader, turns out to be an undercover federal agent, Jess is stumped. New evidence emerges, and Jess discovers the true perp has a more personal motive for keeping the family apart.
