Pearce and Woods are in pursuit of a burglary suspect who is caught after snagging his jacket on some barbed wire. However, once in custody, his injuries don't appear to match the incident, but Pearce ignores the advice of the new F.M.E. and persuades her to let him continue with the interview. However, when the prisoner collapses in custody, the F.M.E. lodges a complaint against Pearce for forcing her to change her opinion.
