Hoping to be hired as an informant, prostitute and recovering addict Connie Reisler tells Vic about Felipe Gomez, a teenager who is giving away heroin outside a local school in order to get his potential customers hooked. Threatened with jail, the young dealer breaks down and identifies his supplier as Vic's nemesis, Armadillo Quintero. But when Armadillo uses Danny to deliver the message that he's not backing down, orders to not cut any corners in the case leave Vic with no alternative other than to threaten to have Quintero's jailed brother, Navaro, killed. Meanwhile, as Claudette and Dutch search for missing Alzheimer's patient Jeannie Sutton, Danny presses Julien to tell his fiance the truth about his sexual orientation.
