Plot
In this episode, Detectives Logan and Wheeler reinvestigate a cold case when a Catholic priest, Father Shea, who was friends with Logan's former partner Lennie Briscoe, comes to Logan for help; he says that a dead man to whom he gave last rites confessed to having murdered three people 16 years earlier in the South Bronx.
Meanwhile, Wheeler and her fiance attend a fundraiser, and a photographer secretly begins photographing them. Soon back on the case, Logan and Wheeler research Randy Nichols, who was convicted of the murder of a rich CFO and his pregnant wife. The detectives discover that Logan's nemesis, ADA Terri Driver, is involved. Later, when the priest becomes a victim of a near fatal stabbing at the penitentiary where he was working, he is put in critical condition and is not expected to live, at which time the case becomes personal to Logan, who is convinced Driver ordered the hit.

Famous quotes containing the word plot:
“But, when to Sin our byast Nature leans,
The careful Devil is still at hand with means;
And providently Pimps for ill desires:
The Good Old Cause, reviv’d, a Plot requires,
Plots, true or false, are necessary things,
To raise up Common-wealths and ruine Kings.”
—John Dryden (1631–1700)
““The plot thickens,” he said, as I entered.”
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
“The plot was most interesting. It belonged to no particular age, people, or country, and was perhaps the more delightful on that account, as nobody’s previous information could afford the remotest glimmering of what would ever come of it.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
