    #1 - Lights Out

    S2:E1

    An anti-technology terrorist is setting bombs around the beach, and will only let T.C. and Victor dismantle them. He wants all power in Santa Monica shut down for twelve hours on the first of the month. An FBI agent comes in to assist the unit, butting heads with Palermo by making Chris his liaison. In the end, it's the Bike Patrol -- and not the FBI -- that discovers the bomber's true plan is to use the blackout to pull a multi-million dollar bank heist. While this is happening, T.C.'s girlfriend Sandy returns to live with him, with the condition that he not tell her anything about his job so she won't worry. But the agreement ends up making things harder on both of them.

    S2:E6

    The Bike Patrol investigates a series of home invasion robberies affecting Asian families. The case is unusual in that the robbers use keys to gain entrance and battery-powered bikes to make their getaway. The unit discovers that the thieves pose as valets at upscale restaurant parking lots to get access to house keys, and that one of the ringleaders has very close ties to one of the victims. When her older brother, Peter, suddenly begins buying luxuries for his family, Cory discovers that he's financing his purchases with money stolen from drug dealers. Her brother promises to stop, but Cory feels he's sullied the honor of being a cop--and his own status as her idolized older brother. The Bike Squad brings in a psychic to help them on the home invasion case. Although extremely skeptical at first, Chris comes to believe in his abilities when he correctly predicts her dental trouble.
