Ep 16. Women with Guns

Frank Reagan, the Police Commissioner of New York City, is caught up in a difficult situation when a series of high-profile women become the targets of gun violence. The episode, "Women with Guns," follows the investigation into the shootings and the ultimate attempt to stop the perpetrators before any more women are injured.

The episode opens with Erin Reagan, Frank's daughter and an Assistant District Attorney, prosecuting a case against a man accused of assaulting a woman in a bar. The defendant, a known criminal, is found not guilty and Erin is frustrated that justice wasn't served. Meanwhile, Frank talks with his team about the recent shootings and the fact that all of the victims are successful women in their respective fields.

As the investigation continues, it becomes clear that the shooter is targeting women who have achieved a certain level of success. The team discovers that the shooter is likely a member of a men's rights group who believe that women are taking over the workforce and that men are losing their place in society. The group members believe that the only way to stop this perceived threat is through violence.

As the team works to identify the group and track down the shooter, tensions rise between Erin and Frank. Erin believes that Frank is not doing enough to protect women in the city, while Frank feels that Erin is pushing too hard and risking the safety of his officers. Despite these disagreements, the team is able to piece together evidence and identify the shooter before he can harm any more women.

The episode also includes a subplot involving Jamie Reagan, Frank's youngest son and a police officer. Jamie is struggling with the fact that his girlfriend is moving away to pursue her dream job, and he is left feeling lost and unsure of his own future. He confides in his partner, Eddie, who offers him some advice and a listening ear.

Overall, "Women with Guns" is a tense and thought-provoking episode that explores themes of gender, power, and violence. The show does an excellent job of balancing the action and suspense of the investigation with the personal stories of the characters, making for a well-rounded and engaging episode.
