[edit] Episode recap
Benson and Fin are at the end of an assignment when Fin goes into a corner store where a young boy is paying the clerk. Two teenage gunmen then hold up the clerk; then Benson hears gunshots and runs in to find the clerk and gunmen dead and Fin unconscious after being shot (but the boy is fine). Benson tracks down Fin’s estranged son Ken, who comes to visit Fin after he is expected to make a full recovery. After Fin’s name and photo are put in the newspaper, an outraged woman named Sandra Knowles claims that Fin had put a gun to her head instead of helping her daughter Tricia, which Fin says he did because he was working undercover in Narcotics.
Fin explains that Tricia was the druggie girlfriend of drug dealer Vance Dennis (whom Fin bodyguard-ed while he was undercover). Sources tell him that Tricia’s tip put Vance behind bars but that Tricia herself disappeared; then Fin goes back to Narcotics and talks his old captain into borrowing someone to help him find Tricia, and his captain sticks him with newbie Miguel “Mike” Sandoval. The two of them find one of Vance’s associates (Fat Tony, who is still dealing), who tells them that Tricia was killed and that detectives dismissed her dead body as belonging to an anonymous junkie who overdosed.
Warner states that Tricia had a baby (Austin) before she died, and Fin and Sandoval go to Tricia’s last place of employment, where the manager says that after Tricia disappeared, her best (druggie) friend Lizzie Jones took Austin. Fin then promises Sandra that they’ll find Austin; then a series of informants tell them that Lizzie is a booster that lives with her meth-cooking boyfriend T.D. The detectives go to T.D.’s house, and Sandoval walks up the back steps and triggers a tripwire just as Fin jumps him out of the way before the house implodes.
Fire marshals confirm that no people were inside the house; then a large supply of cold pills (which contain pseudoephedrine, the main ingredient in crystal meth) are found inside along with other supplies; the marshal infers that the lab is located somewhere else. Later, a store clerk remembers seeing Lizzie (after Sandoval discovers that she boosted all the cold pills from the store), and the detectives catch her on the way to get starter fluid, but she doesn’t have Austin. Before arresting her, she confesses that Austin is with T.D. at his sister’s house where the lab is, which turns out to be a daycare center. Fin and Sandoval catch T.D. in the middle of cooking the meth and arrest him; then Fin gives Austin to Sandra.
