Special Investigator Annemarie Lucas and her partner, Special Agent JoAnn Sandano, are on patrol in Brooklyn when a stray mutt wanders in front of their car. Clearly neglected, it turns out he's recently been thrown out of a house across the street. Special Investigator Paul Romano and Special Agent Joe Pentangelo discover a shocking case of neglect in a church in Brooklyn. They find the pastor's dog, Sparkey, cowering in a back yard, covered in ticks. And, one of the ASPCA's undercover officers, known only as Special Agent H, has a dramatic night of cases with his partner, Special Agent Adam Gankiewicz. First, they seize a batch of 10 fighting cocks from the roof of a garage in the Bronx. On the way back to base, they get a priority call to divert to a dogfight under 3rd Avenue Bridge. They rush there and are in time to catch the fight and arrest the dog fighters.
