King - Episodes 2.02, 2.03 and 2.04 detailed synopses

EPISODE 202
TITLE: “JOSH SIMPSON”
Written by: Adam Pettle
Directed by: Lee Rose

LOGLINE
King grabs the reins from the Gaming Unit after one of their own is gunned down - leading a hunt through the city’s gambling underground to catch the shooter.

SYNOPSIS
In a routine raid on a backroom poker game, a Detective is shot. The old Sergeant in charge of the raid was King’s Training Officer and the wife of the critically wounded cop was Danny’s girlfriend. Things get remarkably more challenging for King when all the witnesses at the game dummy up. In this coke-fueled, high rolling, no-limit underworld, the MCTF team must figure out who is covering for whom and why. King has another gambling problem closer to home – a loan shark’s debt book shows Danny is still laying bets.

EPISODE 203
TITLE: “JAMILA KARAN”
Written by: David Barlow
Directed by: Jerry Ciccoritti

LOGLINE
The MCTF bails out the Robbery Squad on a botched kidnapping case. King fights fellow cops, wealthy jewelers, and a ticking clock to save a young girl’s life.

SYNOPSIS
When a ransom payoff goes terribly wrong, Jess and her team must do everything in their power to free a kidnapped young girl. The MCTF ends up in the middle of a feud between two successful jewelers, discovering there is more to their rivalry than the competition to buy old gold. Just as the kidnappers increase their demand to a million dollars, complications arise with Jess’ pregnancy, forcing her to run the investigation from bed. Time is running out, on and off the job, and Jess realizes that a dangerous cat-and-mouse game with the bad guys is her last best chance to save the victim’s life.

EPISODE 204
TITLE: “CHARLENE FRANCIS”
Written by: Patrick Tarr

A critical intelligence breach by one of Jess’ ex-husbands forces King and her team to salvage a major weapons bust - and save the life of an Undercover Officer who refuses to stand down.

SYNOPSIS
Detective Sergeant Pete Rivers (Jess’ ex-husband) is on the verge of wrapping up a major investigation into drug dealing and gun smuggling when he’s carjacked - losing not just his vehicle but also his police issue laptop. The computer contains sensitive intelligence, including the real identity of an Undercover Officer who has managed to infiltrate the ruthless drug dealer’s crew. King’s assignment? Find the laptop before it falls into the wrong hands, make sure the illegal guns never end up on the streets, and figure out whether her ex-husband’s character flaws (the same ones that ended their marriage) have put the project - and the Undercover Officer – in danger.
