Plot[]

Albert receives a visit from a city inspector, who says he needs a permit for the work he has been doing to his house and that he needs a licensed plumber to redo the work. Albert's Road Home application is rejected, as it needed his wife's signature, even though she died in 2003. Fed up, Albert begins packing, ready to move back to Houston. Janette apologizes for the incident involving Alan Richmond, and is recommended she speak with chef Eric Ripert for a new job. Ripert offers her a job, but she will have to start at the bottom. Davis continues his music recording project, wondering what New Orleans musicians they should get. Davis discovers an impressive rapper named Lil Calliope. Colson investigates the first murder in his district. He believes another crime, a break-in, is related, but other officers disagree. LaDonna is still shaken up over her attack and is unable to work at the bar at night. Annie begins trying to write her own music. Under financial pressure, Toni reluctantly hands off the Abreu case to another law clinic. Thousands of New Orleans citizens march on City Hall, to protest the overgrowing violence in the city.
