The SWAT team's search for an abducted teen leads them to a member of the Witness Protection Program and a decades-old political extremist group. Hondo and his girlfriend disagree over a guest speaker at her community center. Luca worries he's not physically ready to return to the field. Commander Hicks reconnects with his estranged son.
Los Angeles S.W.A.T. lieutenant Daniel "Hondo" Harrelson is assigned to lead a highly skilled unit in the community where he grew up. Torn between loyalty to the streets where the cops are sometimes the enemy, and allegiance to his brothers in blue, he strategically straddles these two worlds. Hondo encourages his team to rely on communication and respect over force and aggression, but when a crisis erupts, these unflinching men and women are prepared to put their tactical training to the test.
