As the story unfolds, a group of attackers, led by Stephen Plummer, take over the police station. Ellie and Kate are caught in the middle, while Jordan is out of the building, dealing with her own dangerous situation. As the hostage situation unfolds, it is revealed that a former police officer, Chris Atwood, is involved.
