Andy McNally’s first shift on the job turns into mayhem when shots are fired in a downtown rooming house. In the midst of the chaos, Andy triumphantly makes her first big arrest – a suspected drug dealer – who turns out to be Sam Swarek, an undercover officer from her own division. She makes up for her grave mistake by going face to face with a dangerous gunman who already has one man’s blood on his hands.
As the other rookies hunt down a dangerous escaped convict, Swarek drags Andy through his undercover haunts on a mission he won’t explain. At first, Andy assumes Swarek is a rogue cop trying to settle scores from his undercover days.

While working on a high-stakes gun raid, Andy and Gail stumble upon a victim of domestic abuse whose brutal experience in the system has taught her not to trust the police.

Meanwhile, the other rookies get caught up in the annual police retirement boxing match – a fundraising event known as “Fite Nite.”
Andy’s undercover skills are tested – and found to be lacking – during a citywide campaign to clean up the streets, when she’s tapped to pose as a prostitute in order to arrest unsuspecting johns.
