Duncan, Tessa and Richie pay a visit to the court house to deal with some parking fines just as mass murderer Bryan Slade breaks out of custody with the aid of some very suspicious-looking decorators and takes them all hostage. When Slade makes the mistake of picking on the one guy for whom a bullet in the back of the head is just an inconvenience, Duncan goes Die Hard to take out all the crooks.
This actually has a decent premise but unfortunately it has too many elements which are great on their own but don't add much to the plot. There's good gags like Duncan getting another ticket and Richie winding up a thug with stories of a flesh-eating serial killer on the loose. But while Randi has some good cameos, they don't add to much. The conflict between Cominsky and the trigger-happy SWAT commander isn't really resolved. And the stuff with Duncan and the moppet drags a bit. Duncan's reaction at the end doesn't really ring true either.
Second appearances of Cominsky and Randi, last seen in the previous episode and Innocent Man respectively. Cominsky won't be seen again but Randi will be back in Deadly Medicine.
