Episode Overview
Blue Watch receives a videotape revealing that their beloved mascot has been taken hostage. Rather than pay a ransom, they decide to storm Borough St. Station at night, where Malcolm snatches the dentures from one of their firemen and uses them to terrify Colin. The next day, the furious, toothless fireman arrives with his colleagues, demanding his teeth back. Recall negotiates a trade, returning the dentures in exchange for the plastic mascot. Meanwhile, Nick is outraged when he hears what happened, but his team struggles to contain their laughter during his reprimand. In another incident, two young kids play in a car, accidentally igniting it, and tragically, one child gets trapped inside. Although Blue Watch manages to extinguish the flames, the child suffers severe injuries. At POP's, auditions for "Richard III" are underway. Sicknote secures the leading role for himself and casts a newcomer, Cynthia, as his co-star, sparking jealousy in Jean.
