The Oath (2018) is a crime television series that takes viewers deep into the world of gangs, corruption, and the thin line between law enforcement and those who break the law. In season 1 episode 6, entitled "Allegiance," viewers are taken on a journey as the Raven faction is tested in the most brutal of ways following a strategic series of events.
With the episode opening up, the Raven faction finds themselves amidst a warzone. The group is fighting off an attack from the Lone Wolves, a rival gang that has been at odds with the Ravens for some time. However, the attack appears to be more calculated than anyone had first anticipated. As they try to fend off their rivals, tensions between Raven leaders, Tom Hammond and Steve Hammond, begin to grow.
While the Ravens manage to stave off the attack, they know that they can't let their guard down anytime soon. After all, the Lone Wolves have only been growing stronger and more organized in recent weeks, meaning their troubles may be just beginning.
The Ravens receive some good news when they learn that their newest recruit, a young teenager named Kenna, has just been released from prison. Kenna is the cousin of one of the group's most respected members, and she has been itching for a chance to prove her worth to the gang. Tom is hesitant to give her too many responsibilities right out of the gate, but he knows that they'll need all hands on deck if they hope to survive what's coming.
As they regroup after the attack, Tom and Steve continue to clash over how best to handle the escalating violence. Steve is itching for revenge against the Lone Wolves, but Tom is more concerned with keeping his gang alive. The two men are at an impasse, and it's clear that something will have to give sooner rather than later.
A new threat emerges in the form of a crooked cop, Officer Barstein, who has been using his power to blackmail Ravens into doing his bidding. Barstein has caught wind of the growing unrest within the Raven faction, and he sees it as an opportunity to gain even more control over the gang. When one of the Ravens fails to follow through on his demands, Barstein sets his sights on Kenna, knowing that her loyalty to the gang is still in question.
With Kenna in danger, Tom and Steve finally put their differences aside to launch a daring rescue mission. The stakes are higher than ever before, and it's clear that they'll need to rely on each other if they hope to make it out alive.
In the end, "Allegiance" delivers a thrilling episode that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats from start to finish. The Raven faction is put to the test in more ways than one, and it's clear that their troubles are only just beginning. Viewers will be left eager to see what comes next for this gripping crime drama.
