Plot Summary

Finney and Davis are caught-up with a phone call from Ben (the young boy who Finney befriended with at the park/hospital) saying that his Dad is hurting her (referring to his mother).

Plot Details

Monroe is pregnant, and continues to work with the squad, even though no one wants anything to do with her. She tries to talk to Ty, but he doesn't want to talk to her. The kid who fell in the playground (that Brendan befriended two episodes ago) calls Brendan's cell phone. The kid, Ben Reynolds, tells Brendan that his daddy is hurting his mommy, and when Brendan finally arrives at Ben's apartment, he finds his mother stabbed and Ben missing. Brendan and Ty work with detectives Faith and Jelly to track down Ben and his father, who has gone off his psychotic medication. They finally track them to the abandoned printing house where Ben's dad used to work, and they end up in a car chase. Ben's dad, cornered, threatens to slit Ben's throat, but instead lets his son go and slits his own throat. Brendan counsels a confused Ben on loving his father even if his father has done bad things. At the hospital, Ben is reunited with his mother, who still alive. Carlos is in a foul mood since Holly left, and Grace tells him to stop taking it out on her. Grace says she'd rather deal with blood and guts than love anyday. Brendan finds Grace at the firehouse and says he'd like to be more serious with her... perhaps really boyfriend and girlfriend. Carlos is jealous of the happy couples on the street.
