In tonight’s S.W.A.T. episode, Hondo and Nichelle had their first fight about their baby girl. She wasn’t even born and they were already fighting about her because a gown arrived in the mail. Hondo’s mom had apparently sent them the family’s christening gown. Hondo thought it was great because they’ll need it when they christen the baby.
He didn’t know that Nichelle doesn’t want a church christening for the baby until that dress arrived in the mail and got upset. She said it felt like indoctrination. She hated having God and church forced on her as a kid and she said she didn’t need in that life right now nor she did want to do that to their daughter.
Hondo reminded her that she said Luca could be the godfather. She said she thought that would just be what they said instead of it being an actual thing. Nichelle doesn’t want to baptize the baby. She reminded Hondo that they weren’t religious. They didn’t go to the church and she’s never seen him with a bible and so she thought the whole baptizing thing was moot. Hondo disagreed. Hondo was still feeling a type way about that when he went to work. He and his squad got called to a scene of a woman ranting at the staff with a gun at a homeless shelter.
The woman’s name was Abby. She was yelling at people with a gun in her hands because she entrusted her eight-year-old son to them and he disappeared. No one at the shelter knows what happened to him. Abby and her son lived at that shelter. She got put on a graveyard shift at her job. She asked people she thought she could trust to look after her son. Make sure he got to school on time. The next thing she knows she’s getting a call from Micah’s school saying he never showed up and no one at the shelter could tell her where her son is.
That’s when Abby pulls a gun. She demanded her son. She was holding these people, hostage, when SWAT showed up. Hondo had no problem with taking her down. It was easy to subdue her because at her heart she wasn’t a bad person. She was just down on her luck. Plus, Hondo promised that he could help her. He wanted to know what happened to her son just like everyone else did. Micah was a little boy. He couldn’t go missing on his own. SWAT later got lucky because there were nearby security cameras that caught Micah leaving the shelter with the janitor.
The janitor claimed his name was Tony Cruz when he applied for the job when really it was Liam Dunn. Dunn was an ex-con. He assaulted a cop and got four years in prison. He has no record of sexually abusing children yet there aren’t many reasons why a stranger would kidnap a child. SWAT went looking for Dunn. They traced him to a motel. Dunn stayed there with Micah and the front desk clerk said they looked like father and son. He also mentioned there was a shooting. He said two bikers showed up looking for Dunn and the kid.
There were security cameras. SWAT checked them. It showed that the biker gang was after Micah and that Dunn was protecting him. Micah it seems had snuck out of the shelter on the night he went missing because he liked watching a couple of skateboarders in an abandoned warehouse. But on that night, someone got killed. Micah witnessed it. He went back to the shelter and he told Dunn. Dunn should have taken him to the police except he no longer trusts the police after his arrest. He thought the better option would be to go on the run with Micah.
They were so busy running that they didn’t even tell Micah’s mother what happened. Abby had no clue her son witnessed a murder. She was too busy fighting against Street’s attacks. Street took one look at Abby and he saw his mother. He told Abby it’s her fault if her son ended up dead. She shouldn’t have gotten mixed up with drugs. She shouldn’t have lost their apartment. The street was so angry at her that he forgot she was a victim in all of this and Deacon had to bench him. Benching Street wasn’t his first choice. He tried to talk Street down. And Street refused to see Abby as her own person.
Abby entrusted her kid to that shelter. No matter how Street may feel about it, it proved to be the right choice because Dunn was protecting Micah and he got shot trying to keep Micah safe. Dunn tried to take Micah to his ex-wife’s house. They were quickly found by the biker gang. Dunn got shot getting Micah away and he wasn’t in the best condition when Micah suggested going to his hiding place. It’s this place where he would go with his mother if the shelters were too full. Tan asked Abby about it and she said it was in the park.
Tan didn’t have the rest of his team because they were dealing with Dunn’s ex-wife. She revealed that Micah looks exactly like their dead son Clayton and that could be why Dunn was so set on keeping him safe. He was trying to keep a child alive in the memory of the one he lost. Dunn took Micah. They went to the hiding spot. Tan got the location from Abby. Tan also thought it would be too dangerous to go alone and so Street tried to convince Hicks to let him go. Only Hicks reminded Street that he was a bench.
Hicks chose to instead use a female detective that was investigating the biker gang. He thought he could trust her and all she did was lead the biker gang to the boy. She was a dirty cop. She was even in on the murder that Micah witnessed. Micah yelled she was the bad guy when Tan found him. Tan tried defending Micah on his own, but there was still enough life in Dunn that he was able to keep the bikers away from Micah just long enough for the rest of SWAT to show up. And from there, they took down the bikers and even reunited Micah with Abby.
The cops were trying to get the charges against her dropped. Street learned a valuable lesson to leave his personal life out of his work life and the cops gained a witness against a dirty cop and a notorious biker gang.
THE END!
