Ep 5

Marlon's Brando

Apr 5, 2005

Two women are brutally raped and their faces have been branded with a deep jagged cut by their attacker. The detectives interview a white supremacist in prison named Leonard Mattis who might be connected somehow with the attacks due to him being related to the victims through blood and marriage. He denies any involvement. They don't believe him as Mattis' wide range of power and connections in and out of prison is a major factor in these assaults. Meanwhile, Jim's patience begins to wear thin as his growing agitation over Marty's actions against him becomes more apparent to the other detectives at the precinct. Also, the fear of no longer being someone who is adequate enough to be there for and protect his wife and partner begins to take hold, as the investigation potentially endangers Karen and causes Jim to sporadically visualize Christie as a victim.

Seoul Man

Apr 12, 2005

Jim's doubts and fears begin to weigh heavily on him after a serial murderer just claimed his fourth victim bumps into him while he was on his way to work and escapes. He believes that if he still had his sight, then he would have been able to apprehend the suspect. This belief is reinforced by Marty's snide comments and the Chief of detectives reprimanding Jim for pulling out his weapon in public. The faÃ§ade of being in control and everything is all right begins to fall apart as Jim struggles to come to terms with the fact that he is no longer the same person that he was a year ago. Meanwhile, Lt. Fisk attempts to intercede between Marty and Jim as the animosity between the two escalates to an all new level.
