Plot Overview

At the scene of an armed robbery, Terry aids the robber's pregnant girlfriend, whom he abandoned while escaping from the scene. The girl, who had no part in the robbery and was just sitting outside in the car, may lose both her baby and her freedom when Ryker arrives at the hospital with a warrant for her arrest as an accomplice. The only hope for her lies with Terry and Mike finding the crook, who can attest that she wasn't involved in the crime. Meanwhile, the robber is after Terry, believing that his girlfriend is now involved with the cop.
