"Jump the Gun" had a cool robbery case involving more people than it seems at first, and Fritz will be more involved now that he's the liaison to the FBI, which will bring more tension between him and Brenda.
And the final surprise is that Pope is nowhere on the short list while Brenda is. I don't know the mindset of people in the police chain of command, but Brenda has never strived to get a promotion, even inhibiting her ability to move up by being so abrasive in the pursuit of criminals. But Pope openly admits that he's always wanted to be Chief. Can we assume that he'd rather play politics than do his job properly? Well, he's out of the running, so I hope we won't be seeing him anymore. As for Brenda, I'm not sure how the show would work if she were Chief. Certainly she wouldn't do the hands on interrogations, and that's pretty much the core of the show, which rules out her becoming Chief in the end.
Score: 8.6/10
