  Episode Notes  
This was a special 90 minute episode as part of the Season 5 finale.
 
This episode marks the final appearance of Kenny Johnson as Detective Curtis "Lemonhead" Lemansky.
 
Look hard at the furniture in Corrine's new place. It's all from the old home she shared with Vic, showing not only detail to the props, but to the story. Apparently Corrine got a lot from the divorce.
 
Michael Jace does not play a part in this episode until the ending when they find Lem. Also, Paula Garces is only seen in one other scene in this episode. Their scenes were cut due to time.
 
This episode also marks the last appearance of Laura Harring as Becca Doyle. She was only brought in for this season.
 
  Episode Quotes  
Claudette: Track down whatever you can find. Run everything by me. And Vic, that renegade shit’s not gonna fly on my watch, but you already knew that.
Shane: It looks like a new Sheriff just limped into town.
 
(After seeing Lem dead and fighting with Kavanaugh)
Vic: We're gonna find out who did this... and we're gonna kill him.
 
Billings: See? No respect. Wyms is even moving my desk where everybody can get a good gander at Cesar lying in a puddle of blood.
Dutch: In this story, you're Cesar?
Billings: Didn't I get stabbed in the back?
 
Vic: Hey, you! What the hell was with that pow-wow going on upstairs?
Aceveda: Call me later.
Vic: I'm running out of later. Now, are you and I still alies against Kavanaugh, or do I pull out my flamethrower and start that scortched earth plan I talked to you about?
 
  Episode Goofs  
With all assumptions aside, the main theory behind Shane's grenade on Lemonhead is that he grabbed one while busting the gang earlier that night. But if that's true, wouldn't they have noticed one missing? Aside from the fact that they come in special cases with one in each compartment, wouldn't evidence have come up with an odd number? Someone would have to have known one was missing.
 
When Claudette walks in on Spank and Tori, their supposed to be having sex. But look closely, none of their clothes seem to be down or off in any camera. They were pretty much dry-humping in the scene.
 
Look hard when the car explodes with Lem inside. It's a dummy inthe driver's seat. Walton was supposed to block the camera's view, but fails.
 
Who made the call to report Lem had been found dead? Obviously not Shane, and the area was abandoned.
 
  Episode References

Shane says he tealked to the Mexican officer who helped the team take care of Doomsday back in episode #2 of this season, "Enemy Of Good."
 
The grenade smuggler Guardo is mentioned, calling back to the 8th episode in this season, "Kavanaugh."
 
Claudette makes reference to how Monica Rawling burned the DEA, which took place in the Season 4 finale "Ain't That A Shame."
 
Throughout the episode, several references are made to the Strike Team ripping off the Money Train, which took place in the Season 2 finale "Dominoes Falling."
