Meanwhile, Bailey is feeling off-kilter since her engagement. Juarez advises her to re-decorate the house to line up with their energy.

They ask Grey to give the green light for an undercover stint led by Chen. They ask Chen to infiltrate the female gang group and find out who pulled the trigger on the liquor store owner. As luck would have it, Bradford and Thorsen are already acquainted with one of the members’ families.
That morning, the police were called to a home for a noise complaint. Thorsen, who is well-liked by Tabin (a brother of one of the gang members), was asked to convince him to introduce Chen to his sister and give her an in with the gang. ..
Thorsen starts out poorly and gets anxious. He tells Bradford that he is overlooking Tabin’s safety to further Chen’s career. Bradford is startled by the accusation and is quick to deny it.

The Episode Review
Wesley’s decision to apologize to Elijah was a mistake. This will destroy his career and who knows what Elijah is planning next. Wesley believes he is protecting his family but we all know Elijah won’t let this matter go. At the moment, they can’t touch him and have no proof of his shady dealings. It will take time before they can bring him to justice.
The arrest of Tabin’s sister was intense. Thorsen did an amazing job de-escalating the situation, but we know in real life how most of those situations end up. Thorsen is really good at community policing, and Bradford can learn a thing or two from him. ..
