Framed

Linda tasks Danny with obtaining a chocolate cheesecake for the upcoming Sunday dinner from Wojcik's, a Polish bakery he used to frequent as a child. At work, Danny informs Sergeant Gormley that numerous assault victims in a case he and Kate are investigating had been using the same bookie, who was issuing warnings to pay outstanding debts. Kate adds that a black book the bookie uses to record all of his dealings would give them the break they need. Danny asks ADA Ward (Thom Barry) for a search warrant for the black book. After work, Danny arrives at Wojcik's past its closing time, as the bakery's owner (Michael Kostroff) is cleaning the store. Danny reminds the owner of the Reagans' connection to the bakery, and the order gets placed. While Danny is driving home, a police officer pulls him over, saying his car matched a description of a vehicle involved in a drug deal. He is taken into custody when a bag of cocaine is found in the back of his Jeep. At home, Frank tells Linda that it is imperative that the Reagan family stay out of this case, as any involvement may jeopardize both Danny and their reputations. Henry secretly asks Erin's ex-husband Jack (Peter Hermann) to represent Danny in his internal affairs jam. At the precinct, Danny gets interviewed by IAB Investigator Captain Elwood (Nestor Serrano), who doubts his version of events. Jamie confronts Mr. Wojcik, knowing that Danny's car was stopped after leaving there, but Wojcik nervously denies knowing anything. Meanwhile, Danny's off-duty weapon is stolen from his house and matches the ballistics involved in the bookie shooting. Danny initially suspects Kate after seeing her talking to Elwood and learns that she once worked for IAB. Frank asks DCPI Moore to dig into Elwood's background. Garrett infers to Kate that "one of our own" is setting up Danny. After the elusive black book is found, it is discovered that Captain Elwood owed a lot of money to the bookie. Danny is then exonerated from all charges. Kate tells Danny that she's returning to IAB. At Sunday dinner, Linda asks whether or not Frank helped Danny out in any way. He, Henry and Jamie all humorously reject any involvement.
