8/13 Damon shows Duke the new code for the Tumble Dry file. Even if Felicia was to get a copy of it, she wouldn't understand it. Tired of seeing Frisco on their trail, Damon decides it's high time for the rookie cop to be killed! Duke is violently opposed to rubbing out anybody. Murder will focus unwelcome attention to the waterfront. Damon disregards Duke and hires a hit man named Bud Price to pose as a waiter and kill Frisco on the night he sings at Duke's. Felicia is still trying to access Tumble Dry on Duke's computer.

Duke and Angel come up with a plan to make it look like Felicia stole and ermine fur coat and a lot of money. It is hoped this will get F&F off their backs without resorting to murder. However, Damon still orders the hit. Frisco sings his song as the hit man readies his gun.



8/18 Duke and Angel spot the gunman and take him out. They hussle him upstairs without anyone noticing. Duke is furious at Damon for a foolish stunt like that. Duke tells him they can forget the entire plan, he's through! Duke and Angel step up their plan to frame Felicia figuring this will distract Frisco.



Frisco and Felicia back home in bed, talk over their evening. Frisco tells her as much as he loves singing the best part of the evening was Anna tell him she was going to reduce his suspension and she has big plans for him! Frisco tells her how much he loves her. They both hope things work out for Duke and Anna, they are happy and want everyone else to be happy too!

Anna tells Frisco that she is ending his sentence early. She admits that she missed him! He's back on the force! She knows he's still the same hot headed cop, but warns him to watch his back and be careful. She doesn't mind his enthusiasm and investigating, but he needs to report to her if he finds out anything. Delighted to be back on the force, Frisco buys Felicia a sexy new nightie, which naturally she has to try on!
