- The discovery of a presumed dead police officer's badge brings the LAPD and Don's team together to solve the mystery of what happened 17 years ago. Elsewhere, Alan is served in a lawsuit, and he has to determine if his calculations were wrong when he consulted for a golf course.—layle
- BMX bikers doing stunts in a vacant lot find a police badge.
Charlie and Amita are doing tests to see how far a catapult can throw a ball of fire, when Alan is served with a notice of being sued.
The badge belongs to an Officer Everett who disappeared seventeen years ago. Lieutenant Gary Walker, an LAPD officer, tells them the victim had shot and killed a gangbanger, Stephan Bradley, and his brother Calvin swore revenge. Calvin Bradley did time for an unrelated time and was since released. Charlie suggests math to find the body.
Millie tells Charlie that Amita resigned as chair of the Curriculum Committee. LAPD is angry with the FBI for not doing enough at the time of the murder. They talk to Calvin Bradley. He's no longer in a gang.
The body is found, executed by a single shot to the head. They bring in Bradley, who denies everything. Walker wants to beat a confession out of him. Ballistics show that the bullet came from Everett's own gun. They consult with his wife, who rules out suicide.
Charlie calls out Amita for resigning from the committee. She doesn't think she's ready, but does give Charlie a path to follow, and they realize that Everett was not killed in Bradley's gang's territory, and there was no way for him to get there. FBI suggests that he might have been killed by the controlling gang.
Millie goes to visit Alan, who is being sued over a golf course he helped design. She goes over the math he's done.
Gary finally admits that maybe Bradley wasn't the killer. Don goes to find former gangbangers. Jimmy Lopez is one; he suggests that the gangs had called a cease-fire in order to take out a cop.
Amita suggests that Charlie has failed to take into account the victim's path on the day he was killed. Charlie realizes that Everett had changed two appointments on the day of his death. He thinks he's found the location to which Everett was going that day, and Walker realizes that he must have been on his way to Internal Affairs, perhaps going to confess to a dirty killing.
THey go back to talk to Calvin. He tells them that Everett talked to him before he was killed, to apologize. The cops had a deal going with a gangbanger who would give them information on drug locations in return for a share of the drugs. Stephan Bradley was killed because he was going to turn them in.
Alan and Millie go over the golf course results and realize that they'd used a poor material for the driving range, and the contractor was at fault, not Alan.
The FBI look for the source of the drug snitches and decide it must be Jimmy Lopez. They examine his truck and find him dead inside. He died of an overdose; they wonder if Charlie can identify the killer based on the drug cocktail Lopez was given.
Lana decides she's good for the committee.
Charlie finds a match to a certain drug dealer, who has been busted by Lieutenant Steve Davidson. Davidson must have taken evidence from the evidence locker to poison Lopez. They confront him and he admits to killing Everett to stop him from revealing the deal.
