Recap

On a dark street, a bunch of guys on motorcycles surround some guy and beat him up and spit on him before leaving him there.

Some guy is harassing the mayor and the guy says he can't be arrested when the security detail arrests him.

Frank realizes this guy is an off-duty cop. Garrett says there are public relations concerns. Frank doesn't care. The cops are harassed this way so why should the mayor refuse to deal with it?

Danny and Baez visit the beating victim and learn that the gang leader was named Sonny.

Jamie is given a new case. It seems Eddie and her partner are suspects in a deal between corrupt cops.

Anthony wants to see Danny, who doesn't want to talk to him. Jack wants to hook Erin up with a billionaire. He has photos. Jack and the guy are with mob figures. Danny says Jack has lots of clients like this and he has a case to work.

Jamie watches Eddie and Badillo through a window. He asks to talk to Eddie in private and closes the blinds. He questions her about if she knows his suspect. She asks why he's asking her all these questions.

The mayor wants Frank to fire the cop. Frank won't. The mayor complains that the guy was stalking him. Frank says cops put up with this all the time. THe mayor insists Frank could fire the guy. Frank says he doesn't love Stokes' method but he understands the frustration.

Danny goes after Sonny, who rides his motorcycle away but is quickly arrested. Sonny claims that he did nothing wrong. Danny slams on his brakes because a guy is in the middle of the road, but it's a ruse and Sonny's crew helps him escape.

Sonny calls and says the guy who was beaten hurt Vietnamese girls. He won't come in but says he has emailed Danny info.

Jamie confronts his boss, accusing him of making Eddie look like the bad guy to test him. The boss says the CO didn't put him here. He was the one who wanted Jamie here. He's had his eye on him for years, so no he is not setting him up. He handpicked him. He saays he's not targeting Eddie. He is targeting Badillo.

Baez has printed out a dozen statements from girls who says that a white man beat them up. Baez believes Sonny. She has a video of Sam beating up a girl.

Garrett tells Frank that the mayor went to the Civilian Complaint Board and demanded Stokes has been fired. Frank doesn't care and neither do Sid and Abigail. Garrett doesn't get it. He says when the mayor wins this fight this will be bad for the NYPD even though the cops are happy that Frank is standing p for them. Frank says it's not about winning or losing.

Danny goes looking for Sonny. No one has seen him. A woman pretends not to speak English. A guy does too, and is hostile. Baez says no one here will help them and Sonny is too powerful here. Danny has an idea.

Anthony is in Erin's office. He has a photo of her kissing Jack. She says he's taking creepy photos of her and get out of her chair. Why is he staking out Jack? He says Jack hangs out with the wrong people and it will be bad for her campaign once she makes it official. Erin throws hm out but not before he shows her a bunch of photos of mobsters with Jack.

Eddie tells Jamie that that guy's name rang a bell. Badillo has collared him a lot and says it's good for his arrest numbers.

Danny interrupts a gambling game. Some people laugh at himand say things in Vietnamese. He says the officers will shut down this game until he gets Sonny.

Frank comes to congratulate Chase on his win. The mayor complains the board has no teeth. Frank says Chase thinks that he doesn't like him. That is not the case but they are church and state. They have the same goals even if the methods differ. He is not going to terminate the officer and risk pissing off the union but he will suspend him for 30 days. He says that he met with Stokes before he saw Chase. Stokes' actions broke his golden rule: two wrongs don't make a right.

Sonny comes to the station.

Erin meets Jack and says she can't stay for dinner. He says what did I do now? She says it's bad timing. He says that they are running out of time.as they are no longer young. Erin feels she can't be with Jack because his associations will hurt her campaign. She leaves.

Sonny says his lawyer said not to worry about a thing and that he's not on the hook for the escape and was technically kidnapped. The assault will play in the press as how he is a hero protecting Vietnamese girls from hate crimes. Danny is disappointed in Sonny. Sonny says he had to do things his way and isn't doing bad things. Danny says what if you'd got the wrong guy? Sonny says he is thorough. Why can't Danny look the other way? Danny says he can't but maybe there's something else he can do for him. He introduces him to an FBI agent who is interested in  having Sonny work undercover for him so that he can stop human trafficking in Little Vietnam.

Jamie has phone records for Malcolm. Malcolm has been calling Badillo and called for 2 seconds at a time and never talked to him. He is trying to get Badillo because Badillo keeps arresting him.  Jamie's boss is pleased with him.

Anthony brings Erin files. He's upset her office calls him instead of her.  She doesn't like he was following her without knowing. He says when he lets someone in it's a big deal and he's all or nothing. Erin says he couldn't have told her in advance anyway. She says they are pretty great together. They agree to put this behind them.

Garrett says this came off as gracious to the cops. He says this works almost every time, but why is Frank always keeping him in the dark? Frank says the guy who brags about what he's going to do gets validation but doesn't do anything. Garrett says I'm not your drinking buddy. I'm your right hand. Frank says he feels like Garrett automatically pushes back. He says sometimes keeping Garrett in the dark is part of the play but eventually says he can't do this without him.

Ice cream sundaes at family dinner. They are playing a game where they have to ask personal questions. Frank says his life's greatest blessing is every Sunday he gets to spend with his family. He asks Erin who the love of her life is. She says she's taking the fifth and the box. Game over.

Frank: You mean political concerns.
Garrett: Those too.
Frank: I don't give a damn about either.
Garrett: With all due respect -
Frank: Garrett, before you go down the road of how unreasonable I am, let me remind you that this camera in the face thing is the same thing our cops deal with on a daily basis.
Sid: 100%
Frank: We ask our cops to suck it up, just ignore it. The least we can do is hold the mayor to the same standard.
