5 | When a hip-hop celebrity is implicated in a nightclub murder, [=McCoy=] and Southerlyn battle the flaks who attempt to insulate their client from any involvement or interrogation. |
6 | ---- |
7 | * AssholeVictim: Jerome Cabey was a cocaine dealer to support making his music, which wasn't very good. After his attempt to get a DJ job at the club failed, he threw money at Darryl Collins and called him a sell-out. Cabey then groped Allie Lawrence. Which lead to her shooting him. |
8 | * CouldHaveAvoidedThisPlot: Darryl Collins sadly speculates on this after we learn he is covering for Allie. |
9 | -->'''Collins''': Yeah, well, they tell me I have to be hard to sell records. If I hadn't listened to that... maybe none of this would've happened. |
10 | * HonorBeforeReason: Jack says he is impressed by Collins' chivalry at protecting Allie. In some cases, it seems to be "street cred" before reason. |
11 | * KarmaHoudini: Allie Lawrence gets away with the shooting. Darryl Collins gets away with covering for Allie. |
12 | -->'''Jack''': Apparently two careers are worth more than a person's life. |
13 | * NotOnTheList: Done by the bouncer during the ColdOpen. |
14 | * PopCulturalOsmosisFailure: Amusingly averted with Lenny. |
15 | -->'''Green''': G-Train? ''The'' G-Train? |
16 | -->'''Briscoe''': Even ''I'' know who G-Train is. |
17 | * PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy: At the end, Jack jokes how the DA's office got "dissed." |
18 | * RippedFromTheHeadlines: This episode is loosely based on Music/SeanCombs and the shooting at Club New York in 1999. In real life, rapper Shyne served 10 years in jail for the shooting. |
