* MoodWhiplash: Particularly noticeable in this episode -- the serious and potentially disturbing question of who killed Pratt, and Felton's failed attempt to prove that he's recovered from the shooting, are interspersed with Lewis's and Pembleton's case(s), which until the final revelation of the shooter's identity is mostly played for humor, and the entirely comic subplot of Munch's nude photo.

* SceneryCensor: Before Brigitta puts the flyer over the genitals in the photo of Munch, the actual parts are never seen by the audience, as some person in the gallery is always in the way.

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Pembleton, who normally will stop at nothing to discover the truth and, in the previous season, defied Giardello to prove that a cop unjustifiably shot and killed a suspect, says that whoever killed Gordon Pratt saved the taxpayer money and has no interest in discovering whether it was a cop who did it.

Bayliss has to investigate the shooting death of [[Recap/HomicideLifeOnTheStreetS3E14DeadEnd Gordon Pratt]], which no one seems to be enthusiastic about pursuing. Lewis and Pembleton investigate the shooting of a woman in broad daylight, and while Pembleton believes the shooter was from the lower-class area of the neighborhood, it turns out it was a little girl who was fooling around with her father's gun. Felton goes back to work on limited duty, but finds even that might be too much for him, though Bolander does make a full recovery. Finally, Brigitta (Creator/ValeriePerrine), a gallery owner and an old girlfriend of Munch's, puts up an old photo of Munch where he's completely nude, causing him no end of grief.
