Dunbar wird Zeuge eines Raubüberfalls, vom Täter jedoch umgerannt. Es stellt sich heraus, dass dies bereits der vierte Überfall auf koreanische Geschäfte war, und Russo kritisiert Dunbar heftig, weil er die Tat nicht verhindern konnte.
Zum ersten Mal fühlt Dunbar sich als Versager. Und seine Zweifel werden noch schlimmer, als beim nächsten Überfall zwei Menschen getötet werden. Dann aber findet er Hinweise, dass der letzte Überfall das Werk eines anderen Täters war.
Jim's doubts and fears begin to weigh heavily on him after a serial murderer just claimed his fourth victim bumps into him while he was on his way to work and escapes. He believes that if he still had his sight, then he would have been able to apprehend the suspect. This belief is reinforced by Marty's snide comments and the Chief of detectives reprimanding Jim for pulling out his weapon in public.
The façade of being in control and everything is all right begins to fall apart as Jim struggles to come to terms with the fact that he is no longer the same person that he was a year ago. Meanwhile, Lt. Fisk attempts to intercede between Marty and Jim as the animosity between the two escalates to an all new level.
Jim laisse échapper un tueur en série, alors qu'il avait l'occasion de lui mettre la main dessus. Ce nouvel échec aggrave un peu plus ses doutes...
