On the down side, Jacobs has a meeting with the Solicitor General about the relationship with the Police Board and Da Vinci, the SG laying down the law with Da Vinci on this matter. However some unexpected good news for Da Vinci comes via Lou in the coroner's investigation: he has found evidence that the grow-op site was violated after it was locked down, implying that the fire and rescue notice may have been planted on the site after the lock down. This news, eventually the major finding in the coroner's investigation report, provides leverage for the Mayor in all these dealings, especially with the police department in general and Jacobs in particular. Internal to the police, Klotchko continues to play Ferris, who is feeling and showing the pressure of the investigation. When all is said and done, Ferris solely takes the fall for the notice planting. Although not coming out smelling totally like a rose, both Klotchko and Jacobs are spared. Still feeling the heat, Jacobs kowtows to the Mayor, saying that they should now work together, Jacobs even stating that he will support the Mayor's controversial policies. Da Vinci basically tells him to take a hike. Things on this front don't end smoothly however as the fire department and many police officers threaten a major work disruption based on Ferris being the scapegoat for larger systemic issues within the police department. On another front, Da Vinci intervenes with Pacific Comm for Manning. The Pacific Comm lawyer does not back down as she says she has evidence of influence peddling on Manning's part for the better part of 10 years. Manning does not take too kindly to the news of this meeting outcome. Elsewhere, Det. Carter has laid "gay bashing" murder charges against Clay and Reed based on Katie's evidence, although he knows that she had a major role in the crime; just the fact that it is being charged as a hate crime satisfies Councillor Horne. And the Mike Franklin side of Joe Friedland emerges as he gets deep back into gambling and is down $20,000 in a current poker game, money he doesn't have. With the pedophile case, the perpetrators continue their back-room dealings with the witnesses, albeit in a slightly heavier handed matter: Curtis murders Mason. However Norton negotiates with Kosmo and Finn for Dubreau's return. When Dubreau returns, the detectives state that the Crown has refused to negotiate and they book him on murder charges.
