Complete story — includes the ending
Pembleton responds to a shooting call and is shocked to find that the victim is Beau Felton, who has apparently committed suicide. Auto Squad detective Paul Falsone visits the squad room and voices his theory that Felton was leaking information to a car theft ring he was trying to bust. Cox's autopsy reveals that Felton was in fact murdered, and Gee learns that Stuart Gharty (now a detective working in Internal Investigations) sent Felton into the ring undercover to find the leak--a fact that enrages Howard, who remembers how his previous cowardice resulted in the deaths of two men and had hoped he would retire from the BPD. Russert returns from France to help with the investigation. Lewis tries to settle Stivers' mind over the Mahoney shooting, and Pembleton finds out that Bayliss has been taking care of his uncle in order to forgive him. Kellerman and Cox spend another night together. Giardello ignores Gaffney's insults over Harris' resignation, recognizing them as scared bluster from the captain. Guest stars: first appearance of Jon Seda as Det. Paul Falsone; return of Peter Gerety as Det. (formerly Patrolman) Stuart Gharty; return of Isabella Hofmann as Det. Megan Russert from the character's season-long leave of absence in France; Scott William Winters as Eddie Dugan.
