Garrett goes into Frank’s office and turns on the radio broadcast. Regina says, “that this is not about any of that it is about taking legislative action and a repurposing from top to bottom of the NYPD and their resources. To get “him” to retrain would be like getting him to cop to the fact that there is systematic racism and oppression within his ranks.” Sidney enters Frank’s office and listens in as well. “That is geared towards people of color. Repurpose.”
Regina gets a caller that says cops broke up a group outside the Barkley Center and a couple of them were bleeding when they left.

Garret says they have to make a rebuttal. Frank tells Garrett to check in on what happened at the Barkley Center.
