That very night, Rocket, the formidable boss of the neighborhood Crips, assassinated Robert Craig, a young black man who had recently joined the Bloods. The next day, during a round, Bob and Danny, in charge of the investigation, apprehend Clarence Brown, known as "the Mole", a member of the Bloods for possession of narcotics but release him by Bob's decision which reveals his negotiating nature and to the great dismay of Danny who, since the discovery of young Craig's corpse, has sworn to be radical towards the gangsters. When the two police officers stop at a cafeteria, Danny falls in love with the waitress, Louisa Gomez. Then the young cop meets the "21st Street" gang of the Mexican Leo Lopez known as Frog, well known to Bob, made up of Bird, a young unscrupulous Latino, Larry Sylvester.
