Plot holes: Police Security *really* Sucks: Police headquarters is being evacuated when Parks and Marty Foreman bring Broadhurst into the building in a last-ditch effort to look for Marty's brother. Somehow they find an unguarded door and can move throughout the building (which is still being evacuated). Nobody notices.

Quotes:

Sam McCloud: [McCloud's last line of the show, as Clifford sites in a bomb-devastated squad room] You know, Chief, it may not be the right time for me to tell you about what a good job Joe and Sergeant Norton did...
[Clifford, looking for an ashtray, empties the fire-hose water out of the one he picks up]
Sam McCloud: ... No, no, it's not the right time.
