Halloween has come to Los Angeles, and the 118 and Athena finds themselves dealing with calls that involve some truly haunting incidents. The 118 are called to the cemetery after a sinkhole swallowed up two gravediggers, and later are called to rescue a hiker who fell down a cliff.
Back in town, a Halloween party is in full swing, with a mounted LAPD officer on horseback monitoring the party. When a little girl dressed as Dorothy Gale comes up to him, the officer introduces his horse, City Slicker, to her, and offers her an apple to feed City Slicker. Unfortunately, trouble brews when a fire-breather accidentally sets a guy's head on fire while he was discharging flammable hairspray and it ignites, and City Slicker is spooked by the chaos, causing his handler to fall off the mount and protect the little girl while City Slicker runs off in a panic. Multiple 911 calls come in for LAFD assistance, soon followed by an Officer Down call over the LAPD channel.
It is soon discovered that City Slicker is the Officer Down, having fallen and critically injured his head. With Los Angeles County Animal Control too far out, and not wishing City Slicker to suffer until they arrive with the veterinarian medication for him, his handler asks for City Slicker to be euthanized to end his suffering. Bobby volunteers to administer the lethal morphine injection, and every LAPD and LAFD member there join arms in unity to pay their final respects for City Slicker's service to Los Angeles as the little girl dressed as Dorothy arrives to comfort the officer as he says goodbye to his steed.
After Halloween is over, Buck departs from Abbie's apartment, Hen signs off on having her father taken off life support as she and Karen are with him in his final moments before he flatlines upon the life support being disconnected, and everyone continues on with what the future holds for them now, despite the hauntings of the past hanging over them.

* MercyKill: The team has to put the police horse City Slicker down after the Halloween riot made him fall and hit his head. The team doesn't have anything to reliably treat the horse before Animal Control gets there, and his handler doesn't want him to suffer. Hen can't bring herself to give the horse the morphine shot, so Bobby does it.
