After waving trial for the murder of sergeant Archibald Brooks, which visitor Murdoch realizes is his way to cover for his beloved Edna Brooks, Crabtree is in Toronto's Don prison, where gay former chief constable Giles shows him the ropes of jail bird life. While George investigates the corpse, he finds a murdered jailer and a regimental tattoo as link, so the jailed cops set up a sting as bookmakers. Murdoch and Brackenreid investigate a burglary at Edna's, with a scarf and Simon as leads. Both trails combine to liberate a yet not quite happy Crabtree.
