Detective Jim O'Brien, who is playing the role of a corrupt cop, tries to win Clark's trust by helping him in his cocaine trafficking operation. Meanwhile, detective Jacqui James gathers evidence against Clark's associates, including his right-hand man, Warren Fellows, who is suspected to be involved in the drug trade.
