After robbery occurs, Terry tries to convince Allen to get on, but Allen prefers to the paper instead, and then Danson and Highsmith take the case. However, Danson and Highsmith then die when they attempt catch the criminals by jumping off a building. At Danson and Highsmith's funeral, Terry tries to convince Allen that it could be their opportunity to step up to be heroes, despite Allen telling to show respect at the funeral.
