S2·E7 Backwash
Narrative Classification: Standard continuity chapter maintaining character development and season progression.
Synopsis
'Don't worry, kid. You're still on the clock.' -- Horseface
Russell tells Sobotka the investigation is over, but, in fact, a port computer is cloned, and when a container goes missing, the detectives follow. Simultaneously, Greggs and Prez tap into a circuit of Russian prostitutes. With two sets of evidence, the detail goes to Pearlman. Neither crime merits wiretap--but a drug connect could give the case legs.
