Ep 13. Erasing History

Frank Reagan, the police commissioner of New York City, meets with the chief of the Brooklyn Historical Society, who tells him that some historical plaques on landmark buildings have been vandalized. As the Reagan family gathers for dinner, Frank relays this news to his family, including his son Danny, a detective in the NYPD. Danny, who has a passion for history, volunteers to investigate the case.

Danny and his partner Baez begin their investigation by interviewing witnesses and looking at surveillance footage from the affected buildings. Meanwhile, Frank meets with the mayor and other city officials to discuss the importance of preserving historical landmarks.

As Danny and Baez delve deeper into the case, they discover that the vandalism may be connected to a controversial statue in the city, which is slated to be taken down due to its perceived racist overtones. They also meet a group of protesters who are rallying to save the statue, but who deny any involvement in the vandalism.

As the investigation continues, Danny and Baez begin to suspect that the vandalism may be connected to a larger conspiracy aimed at erasing certain aspects of the city's history. Throughout the episode, they work to uncover the truth behind the vandalism while also dealing with personal conflicts and dilemmas.
