There was a second hour of “SWAT” tonight. This was their final season and so of course they had to say goodbye to Jim Street. Street was an important part of the show. The audience got to watch him fall in love several times before finding the one. He was now happy with Chris. He was also doing some training with Long Beach Police. He was getting them up to LA standards when they came across a biker gang known as the Spine Cutters. They were using armor piercing bullets. The guy in charge disappeared before they could stop him, but they saw his face.
They knew he was Sony Allen. Allen was a wanted man. He killed a detective investigating him some years ago and disappeared right after that. There hasn’t been a sighting of him in ten years. Sergeant Barry Jones only recognized him because the detective had been a friend. Barry has always wanted justice for him. He now has that opportunity. Allen popped up because he bought those armor piercing bullets that night. He bought them off of LAPD Officer Owen Greene. Greene worked the evidence locker. And he stole those bullets from LAPD.
They had confiscated them after a case with the cartels. There were over seven hundred bullets. Greene cleared them out to make a deal with Allen and Allen double crossed him. He killed Greene. They found Greene’s body along with his badge, but something about the story didn’t sit right with Hondo. Hondo was brought into the investigation to help track down Allen. He had also met Greene. Greene was top of his class at the police academy. He recognized Hondo from the recruitment posters. He told Hondo how he dreamed of being a cop.
Greene seemed like the perfect guy. Until they checked the cameras. Greene checked out the bullets himself. He didn’t even bother hiding it. He used his badge to check them out and Barry thought it was because Greene planned on retiring in Mexico. Barry was of the impression that Greene probably played his part to get close enough to that evidence locker. Hondo on the other hand had seen the look in Greene’s eyes when they spoke. He said Greene was true blue. He was someone in for the right reasons and that’s why he couldn’t let this go.
Hondo questioned Greene’s commanding officer. She had only good things to say about Greene. She never saw his betrayal coming and yet his betrayal was caught on camera for the world to see and Hondo still couldn’t let it go. He had a hunch. There was no reason for it. Everyone tried to talk him into forgetting it. He still looked into Greene’s life and tried to figure out what happened to make Greene give such a dangerous weapon to a cop killer. The others spent their time trying to find Allen.
Allen must have needed stolen armor piercing bullets for a reason. The police believe it’s because of a turf war. His biker gang fell apart after he disappeared and new people moved to fill the void. Allen was back in town rounding up all of his old friends to rebuild his gang. He needed weapons to kill off rivals. He also needed product. The Spine Cutters were the biggest drug dealers in California for a while they were under Allen’s leadership and they lost that after he went on the run. Allen came back because he planned on stealing product from his rivals and killing them off at the same time.
But Hondo was right about Greene. Greene’s family had gotten threatened. LAPD were able to get to them and rescue them only after Hondo learned why Greene broke his oaths to the police department. Hondo had been right all along with his hunches. Even Barry saw that. Barry came close to washing out Street when Street was in his department. The only reason he didn’t go through with it was because Street transferred over to LAPD and Barry thought he’d be someone else’s problem.
Hondo took in Street. He taught him the ropes. He helped get through Street’s false bravado. Street was now helping Barry’s team and teaching them new things. Barry has a lot of respect for Hondo because of Street. Both SWAT leaders took their teams to a place where Street’s new informant told the Spine Cutters were held up. They had missed the Spine Cutters by mere minutes. There was just one guy guarding the place and he began shooting those fancy bullets. It pierced the building where SWAT was. And Barry got shot.
Barry was transferred to a hospital. Barry’s team needed a new leader and that’s where Street stepped in. Street took responsibility for Long Beach SWAT. He even convinced a man that was like him when he was younger. Constantly pushing people away. Street was able to get through to him and stop him from washing out of the program. With Street in charge of Long Beach SWAT, he worked in tandem with Hondo’s team. They learned who Allen planned on hitting to get product. It wasn’t rival gangs. It was LAPD.
LAPD collects lots of drugs during their arrests. They usually transport them in large doses to get burned at a crematorium. Allen bit off more than he could chew by trying to hit LAPD’s evidence transportation. Street later jumped on the moving vehicle. He took down Allen in one on one combat. He got to arrest him. Only Barry died from his injuries. Long Beach SWAT needed a new squad leader. Street wanted it to be him. He’s worked with the team for months. He knows them well. He knows he could do good work with them.
Street told Hondo about his intentions and Hondo wasn’t angry. He was proud of him. He’s always been proud of him. He’ll even miss him. The same goes for Tan. Tan and Street are best friends. And so Street had to say goodbye to him too before he left for Long Beach.
Hondo’s wife Nichelle ran into Bruce again. He was the guy that took bribes for their center. Nichelle outed him and he got fired after he tried to frame her for it. He had the audacity to ask Nichelle for a good reference for this job he was applying for. She didn’t do it because she refused to be manipulated and he trashed her office in retaliation. Nichelle has him on camera, but she was going to give him a second chance so that he doesn’t go to prison. All he has to do is never come near her or the center again.
THE END
