Title: The Unloaded Weapon Plot: Two teenagers armed with guns hold up a liquor store, leading to a police chase that ends in the tragic death of an officer. Romano decides to wait until the assailant runs out of ammunition before he confronts and captures him, which infuriates some officers who feel he should have retaliated for their fallen comrade. Meanwhile, Hooker struggles with his feelings as he grapples with his partner’s adherence to protocol instead of seizing the chance to shoot the cop-killer.
