Episode Overview
“Don’t stress, kid. You’re still working.” -- Horseface Russell informs Sobotka that the investigation has wrapped up, but the truth is, a port computer has been duplicated. When a shipping container disappears, the detectives pursue the lead. Meanwhile, Greggs and Prez delve into a network of Russian prostitutes. Armed with two pieces of evidence, the team approaches Pearlman. However, neither offense justifies a wiretap—though establishing a drug connection could provide the case with the momentum it needs.
