Tasha, another project participant, wants to join the Miami Police Department. She discusses her move, including a better job, better treatment and a large signing bonus.

An explosion in downtown Chicago disrupts Atwater and Tasha's patrol. Atwater leads the investigation after the bomb hits a tall building. He organizes survivors' rescue efforts and the Intelligence Unit investigates. The bombing involves a real estate group that's been criticized for building the city.

To find the bomber, Atwater and Tasha work. They investigate Ricky who is stalking his ex-wife rather than the bomber. Chris Lubiak, the bomber is found.

The episode ends with Lubiak trapped in an empty building with the team in a tense standoff. Atwater and Tasha greet him. Lubiak dies after a little fight. After the case, Atwater and Tasha reflect on their past and deal with its emotional impact.
