Go To

When a civilian is accidentally killed during a S.W.A.T. raid, 20 Squad finds themselves under investigation from Internal Affairs to determine who is to blame.

Tropes

  • Dead All Along: As it turns out, the victim was killed when the criminal S.W.A.T. was pursuing threw her aside, making her fall and crack her skull on a table. Only seconds before Hondo and Street arrived, she was already dead, and the flashbang grenade used to subdue the criminal that Internal Affairs believed caused her fatal fall was irrelevant.
  • Innocent Bystander: The episode's plot revolves around one of these getting inadvertently killed in a S.W.A.T. raid.
  • Oh, Crap!: Hondo and Street's reaction to finding a dead woman lying in the apartment in the wake of their arrest.
  • Promoted to Scapegoat: Luca angrily accuses the Internal Affairs officers of trying to do this to Hondo. Street also echoes it.
  • Spy Cam: It turns out the janitor of the apartment block hid these in all apartments so he could spy on the tenants, though one proves useful as it contains footage that exonerates Hondo and Street of any wrong doing.
