  Episode Summary  
A drug dealer dies while in police custody and Sam suspects a cover-up within the unit. He orders a full investigation, though it seems none of the other officers is prepared to help. To Gene's relief, the pathologist's report appears to put everyone in the clear, but when the truth about the criminal's demise emerges, it's up to the 21st-century cop to decide whether to reveal it.

  Episode Quotes  
Gene: Do you let his guide dog watch?
Phyllis Dobbs: His guide dog's giving your mam one. From behind.
Gene: Whatever happened to all the classy birds?
 
Gene: I don't know... who the biggest dickhead is around here. (to Ray) You for what happened. (to Sam) You for your holier than thou act. Or me for having any of you on my team.
 
  Cultural References  
Sam: He's no more than a recreational user.
Ray: Recreational? It's cocaine, not Subbuteo.

Subbuteo is a set of board games simulating sports like football, cricket, rugby and hockey. Weighted playing pieces are flicked across the mat towards the ball. The Subbuteo name is usually associated with the football version.
 
Billy Kemble: I want a solicitor.
Gene: And I want Fiona Richmond as a secretary, looks like we both will have to wait.

Fiona Richmond was a nude model and swimmer who went on to star in softcore porn movies.
 
Sam: A monkey could've gotten a confession out of Billy Kemble. Mike Tyson weighs in and he's refusing to say a word.
Gene: Mike who?

Mike Tyson made his professional debut on March 6, 1985, which is 12 years in the future as far as this episode is concerned.
