Vic's attempt to help a friend find a wayward teenager quickly turns into a nightmare when his fellow cops get caught in a shootout with the missing teen. Vic tracks down a drug dealer in the center of this case who may be linked to Antwon Mitchell (Anthony Anderson), the ex-convict gang banger turned 'community leader'. Vic also suspects that Shane and his new partner, Army, are cozying up to Antwon and his men. David Aceveda (Benito Martinez) spends his last day in the Barn trying to bury Vic for good. With his botched missing teen case and the revelation that he's failed in bringing down the Garage Sting, Vic's future at the Barn looks bleak. Monica steps in and offers Vic a second chance to get back on.

The Shield Show Summary

The Shield breaks the conventional formula of the cop genre. It plays out in a tough, morally ambiguous world in which the line between good and bad is crossed ever day. The series focuses on the tension between a group of corrupt but effective cops and a captain torn between bringing them down and advancing his own political ambitions.

The Shield stars rogue cop "Det. Vic Mackey", leader of the elite Strike Team unit, who is effective at eliminating crime but who operates under his own set of rules. "Captain David Aceveda", the young precinct head who doesn't like Mackey's tactics and wants to bust him off the force. And "Det. Claudette Wyms", a veteran detective who understands Mackey and knows how to play both sides of the fence.
