Erin is overwhelmed with guilt after a man she set free is accused of killing a cop. Also, Frank and Mayor Poole continue their game of political chicken over Frank's reappointment as commissioner, and Danny and Maria investigate a case of a cop who has gone AWOL.

The newest Speaker of NY City Council, (Whoopi Goldberg), a chronic malcontent, wants to dismantle the NYPD's "Broken Windows Policy," a position Frank vehemently opposes. Erin worries when the wife of her good friend and mentor, Judge Wilson, dies as a result of DUI, and, his sentencing suddenly runs off the rails. Linda's co-worker at the hospital has a problem with her ex-husband. Linda asks Baez and Danny to talk to the parties involved and it turns into a big ordeal. Judge Wilson takes on attorneys who dare to argue with the bench (i.e. our jobs); it may be time for a Judicial Ethics Commission Complaint. Does Erin have the balls to file one?
