After the strike team issues a stern warning to his new gang alliance, drug boss Armadillo Quintero responds by burning down the storefront of Vic's connection to the local drug trade. While Vic is determined to get him, Claudette points to her own ongoing investigation into his rape of a twelve-year-old murder witness and, after Aceveda orders the two cops to pursue Armadillo together, the strike team makes an arrest. But, after Vic learns of a safe containing ledgers that could tie him to Tio's operations, Claudette becomes suspicious after she stops a locksmith from "accidentally" destroying the safe's contents. And as Dutch investigates the shooting of a meter maid, Julien and Danny intervene when a woman accuses her Arab neighbor of being a terrorist.
