A murderer hides out in the headquarters of the African Revival Movement, a group led by Burundi Robinson (Creator/RogerRobinson), who happens to have a connection with Commissioner Harris. This leads to a stand-off between the movement and the Homicide Unit.
!!This episode contains examples of:
* BackStory: Back when Robinson was in Narcotics, he and Harris were partners, but the partnership dissolved after a bust when Harris took drugs confiscated in a bust from evidence control and Robinson ended up taking the fall.
* ContinuityNod: [[Recap/HomicideLifeOnTheStreetS5E19DoubleBind Stivers is still shook up about Kellerman shooting Luther Mahoney]].
* DownerEnding: Robinson and all the males in his movement are DrivenToSuicide.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Barnfather is uncomfortable with the lengths Harris is going to protect himself against Robinson, including interfering with Pembleton's investigation and arranging for QRT to kill Robinson.
* IWasNeverHere: Danvers, Giardello, Munch and Pembleton bring Benin Crown, the murder suspect, into the box, but make it clear they're talking to each other, not Crown, as a BatmanGambit to get him to dump the lawyer Robinson and the center has provided him and give evidence against Robinson. It works.
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Robinson is clearly based in part on [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elijah_Muhammad Elijah Muhammad]], whom UsefulNotes/MalcolmX broke from when he found out Muhammad had fathered children with at least two other women.
