Low Blow

Since the Captain has found out about the grudge match, the fight between Laughlin and Clark Jr. is off the card for tonight's fight. McDowell wants to discuss flights to Orlando with Sipowicz, but he doesn't want the whole world (at least the squad) to know about their trip together with Theo. He'll talk to her later; meanwhile Clark Jr. catches a rape case, so they are off to the hospital to begin their investigation. One of the cops at the hospital makes a clucking noise as Clark Jr. is walking away. Back at the squad, Clark Jr. puts a call in that he wants to talk with Laughlin. McDowell decides that she needs to talk to Sipowicz now about her perception of his embarrassment at being on a vacation with her. She tells him she's not going to go. Clark Jr. and Sipowicz interview a registered sex-offender who lived in the area of the rape their investigating. Jones and Medavoy start investigating the shooting of a man who has an ID that indicates he is a doctor; but later it is

Les projets de voyage à Orlando de McDowell et Sipowicz en compagnie de Theo se concrétisent. Mais Sipowicz refuse d'aborder le sujet et redoute que la nouvelle s'ébruite. Dans ces conditions, McDowell hésite à partir. Clark Jr est chargé d'une affaire de viol, il se rend à l'hôpital pour débuter son enquête. En compagnie de Sipowicz, ils interrogent un délinquant sexuel habitant non loin de l'endroit où a été commis le viol. Jones et Medavoy, quant à eux, enquêtent sur l'assassinat d'un homme dont les papiers indiquent qu'il est médecin. Mais les policiers commencent bientôt à douter de sa véritable identité. Il s'avère qu'il n'était probablement pas originaire de New York...

Die Detectives untersuchen zwei Verbrechen: den Mord an einem Schönheitschirurgen in einem Hinterhof und eine brutale Vergewaltigung. Clark nimmt es schließlich im Boxring mit Laughlin auf.
