Strike Three TV-14-LV
A major shootout leaves two patrol cops and an 18-year-old neo-Nazi dead, with lots of unanswered questions as to what happened and who else might have been involved.

Elysian Fields TV-14-LV
The squad investigates the murder of a man who, 10 years ago, was the lead suspect in the murder of two girls. The state of the body indicates he was dragged behind a truck or SUV a full day before being shot twice in the head and dumped in Elysian Park. The original detective comes out of retirement to help with the case, but his obsession with closing his decade-old case reminds Brenda a little too much of her own growing obsession with Philip Stoh, the slick lawyer she was unable to prove guilty of the rape and murder he tried to pin on a client.

Identity Theft TV-PG-LV
A confessed murderer, who was apprehended while Brenda was away on her honeymoon, gets details of the crime wrong during his allocution, causing Brenda to reopen the case.

Brenda''s investigation, however, is interrupted by a visit from her mother, who hopes to pawn her troublesome niece off on Brenda and Fritz for the summer.

Smells Like Murder TV-14-LV
A large cooler with a body stuffed inside leads Brenda in search of suspects, and she winds up with several: from the scripture-thumping stepfather to a disgruntled ex-girfriend to the best friend who was constantly being hit up for money. Gabriel is studying for the detective exam, so Brenda uses the case as a teaching tool. Meanwhile, Brenda''s niece Charlie (Sosie Bacon) pulls a stunt so severe, she and Fritz are ready to put her on a plane home immediately.
Friday, June 7, 3:00AM ET
Maternal Instincts TV-14-V

Brenda and Fritz, meanwhile, spar over how to handle Charlie (Sosie Bacon), especially after Brenda brings her niece into the middle of the case. And Provenza decides to make a big life change.
