Detectives Logan and Wheeler investigate the murder of Jacob Fenner ( Brandon Thane Wilson, son of Judge Nicholas Fenner ( John Dossett ), who is found shot to death shortly after rap artist Calvin "Apokalypto" Liscomb ( Samuel Smith ) is sentenced to prison by the judge. After eliminating any connection to the musician's entourage, the detectives discover that Fenner was accidentally shot by an off duty court officer, Hector D'Angelo ( Joe Maruzzo ), while Fenner and his friends were on a wild night out. The detectives begin investigating victim's friends and focus on Riordan Grady ( Michael Stahl-David ), son of the judge's best friend and prosecutor, Thomas Grady Jr. ( Christian Hoff ), and grandson of convicted criminal Thomas Grady Sr. ( Harris Yulin ). Eventually the detectives establish that Riordan was responsible for dumping Fenner even though he was still alive after being shot. Meanwhile, Wheeler learns that her long-lost father could still be alive, and that he may have been involved in some shady business practices.
