The intruder briefly takes Karen hostage at knifepoint, before dumping her in the swimming pool and escaping. The Carrs call the police, one of whom, Pete Davis, is quickly intrigued by their politeness, and takes extra interest in their case, cutting through department red tape and quickly installs a security system in their house.

When Michael expresses interest in getting revenge on the intruder, Pete invites him on a ride-along with his partner, Roy Cole.
