A man on the run calls Laura (Debra Messing) and is shot as he steps inside a shop. Laura gets the voicemail as Meredith (Janina Gavankar) asks her how it's going with Jake (Josh Lucas). She gets her to narrow down the sounds from the call and knows exactly where he is. In Brooklyn cos of the shop bell where she and Jake used to come for calzone. They find his DB and take photos before she has to call it in cos it's not in their jurisdiction. Especially when she finds out her sister, Lucy's (Debby Ryan) involved. She gets a meter maid, now known as Traffic Agents or something to keep an eye on the CS until the police arrive. She sees her father, Leo (Robert Klein) and asks about Lucy, who tells her after Laura tricks him. She calls the man with the ride and asks him if she can go along cos it's hard to carry weed on planes. She finds Lucy and chases her to the escalator and stops it.
Lucy doesn't have anything to say but Laura tells her to come clean cos she wants to look out for her. Taking her in, she again doesn't have much to say but owns up about selling off pharmaceuticals. Det Malcolm Harris (Tate Donovan) from the 88th precinct wants the case to himself cos it's his homicide Billy (Laz Alonso) and Meredith find the truck that Lucy and her boyfriend had customized, after Jake and Harris question a man at a garage who works on drug kingpin Chun's (Louis Ozawa Changchien) car. telling them Lucy picked up the truck so she was in on it, just as Jake said she would be. Leo comes in to talk with Lucy and he and Laura argue over her not telling him about Lucy. He wants to see his client and tells her he passed the bar in Guam and Nevada. Santiani (Callie Thorne) lets him see her. After telling Harris that he and their precinct will wok together cos it's their narcotics case, but he'll work with Jake and not Laura.
Santiani and Laura question Lucy about the money but Laura wants to slap her around, Santiani telling her not in their precinct a sister can't slap another sister. Lucy admits she stole the money but her boyfriend spent half. She's free to go cos she wasn't Mirandized and Laura cuffed and questioned her, as Leo told her. The money's at Leo's place. Laura says they have an inside man and that's Lucy who meets with Chun and tells him she's got a buyer, and she's willing to buy all the $5 million worth of drugs. He arranges a meet at JFK Gate 37. So she actually has to got through the gate and can't carry any weapons.
Meredith leaves a gun for her at the toilet and Santiani puts a friend app on her phone so she can locate her at all times, which she uses for her son. But Laura's intercepted before she can reach the loo and told to get into a garbage trolley. They lose her and Harris sees the janitor out the window. Laura buys the drugs and will need her phone to make the payment transfer, as she notices Chun's newborn baby's photo on his phone. Santiani locates her as soon as she turns one her phone and they make the arrest. Santiani wants Laura at the press conference cos she's not doing this alone. As the others watch from the bar, a shot is fired and one of the detectives is shot. Obviously it was Santiani and not Laura, as Jake rushes to find out who it is.
Yet more side-stepping the issues as neither one of them admits their feelings. Okay it was actually Laura who needed to admit to Jake first that she's no longer with Tony and with each little detail leading up to this and to her own admissions of how she really fells about Jake, just kept getting pushed aside. Until he met Jennifer and now wants to take things further with her. Should've seen the obvious signs especially as when he asked Laura earlier an ep if she was perfect for him, it was like asking for her permission really. Like giving her a chance to admit her feelings, or forever hold her peace! Also Laura seems to be settling in with Lucy too as she hangs around and pinky swears she wants to get to know her nephews.
