Plot Overview

Bruce Thompson told Mike to expect extra work because Peter Dalton is going to be fired. Mike countered that Dalton intends to resign. Bruce and Mike theorized that some powerful force is at work to put a puppet in the DA's office and perhaps impede law enforcement. Mike and Thompson wondered who might be behind Dalton's campaign. Dalton gave Thompson a resignation, but Thompson threw Dalton out of the office. Faith Fleming, a campaign organizer, met with JH Phillips who told her he wants Peter elected DA. Faith agreed to do anything necessary-- short of something illegal. Phillips gave Faith carte blanche to spend as much money as necessary on the campaign. After meeting Peter, Faith wanted to speak with Virginia. Thompson wanted to call a press conference about Dalton's campaign, but Mike warned Thompson that it will only give Peter more publicity. Mike told Thompson that they have to fight the real adversary-- whoever is behind Peter Dalton. Mike enlisted Willy's help in getting to the bottom of the Dalton's benefactor. After meeting with Virginia, Faith was pleased and informed Phillips that they good material with which to work. Faith planned a big TV rally, complete with a band and a claque that will cheer and applaud on cue. Faith assured Phillips that Peter Dalton is as good as elected.
