  Episode Summary  
Vic distracts Russian mobster Alex Kozodav and his henchmen while Ronnie retrieves a surveillance disk from Kozodav's car. The disk reveals that Kozodav is planning an insurance scam involving burning down an apartment building with over fifty occupants. Just when Monica and Vic feel they have enough evidence to bring Kozodav in, the case is handed over to the Organized Crime Unit. The Assistant Chief defends the decision by showing Monica a videotape, given to him by David Aceveda, that captures Vic and the church bust in an unflattering light. The video is sure to be a PR nightmare for the department, and Assistant Chief Philips doesn't want the Kozodav case to suffer as a result.

  Episode Notes  
This episode marks the first time we actually see the men's bathroom, nowe that it's fixed up.
 
Remember when Monica bought cameras? When Ronnie goes to show Vic the tape of Shane and Antwon, look in the corner of the hall. They're actually put in. Also, look at the front of the door to the video room. The message about the Strike Team has been painted over.
 
The original title to this episode was "Hope."
 
At the 2005 Emmy Awards, Glenn Close received a nomination for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her performance in this episode.

  Episode Quotes  
Vic: (Fanning out his car) Big chief. Vic needum new driving machine, so he can catchum bad guy.
Danny: Knew you had some spanish, didn't know you knew smoke signals.
 
Monica: I also looked into the crime stats. The numbers are up because you manipulated yours to make things look better. I'm getting punnished because I reported mine accurately.
David: Sounds to me like now's a good time to start formulating an exit strategy for the seizure policy.
Monica: The only person who can take me off this is the Chief, and not without one hell of a fight from me.
David: Well then I'd start training. I just spoke to him. He's still blue in the face from having to explain to the ACLU lawyers why you put a cop like Vic, in charge of such a controversial program.
Monica: That's what all this is about. Mackey.
David: Starting tonight, Vic the face of that church invasion. Pulling him off the street might... buy you some slack.
Monica: He's working. I stand by my choice.
David: You just won't take help, will you?
Monica: Help from you? Sure. Orders? No.
David: If Mackey's off the table, I'm going to have to set my sights ont he policy in general.
 
Monica: Don't make this personal-
Vic: Ahh- The only difference between you and Aceveda, is you fooled me into thinking you actually had a goddamn backbone!
Monica: ...You were the red-headed step-child when I arrived here. I put my ass on the line to give you a second chance when nobody else would. I gave you power, I gave you respect. So keep your mouth shut before you lose both! I know this is hard, but I need you to look at the bigger picture.
 
  Episode Goofs  
The scene with Julien and Danny pulling over the white guy is the only scene with rain. Every other part of the episode shows the streets bone dry except the final scene with Vic walking down the street.
 
Why would Antwon be talking in Shane's car? He's had the senseability to keep himself distanced for so long, only to botch it up by sitting in the same car?
