A drug raid leads to the arrest of Tyrone Weeks and Patricia Spence. Patricia has an infant baby girl who is remanded to child welfare. Tyrone is set free on his own recognizance due to overcrowding of L.A. County's jails. Officer Vicki Hill takes pity on Patty Spence and convinces Captain Hollander to pull strings to have her released and to have the baby, Crystal, returned to her.

LaRusso is charged with murder; Quinn and Campo pose as a married couple to nab the baby-sellers who bought Patti's daughter; Chief Kendrick takes the Mayor on a dinner date.
