Episode 3: Agape

While investigating a series of bizarre drug-related murders, Sara, Jake and Danny encounter Dean Gorner (ROBERT JOHN BURKE), a narcotics detective with a bad attitude because his former partner's murder has yet to be solved. Gorner persuades Sara to "loan" him Jake to help with a drug stakeout. Reluctantly, Sara agrees to let the rookie work with Gorner. Meanwhile, Sara receives strange Witchblade visions about the cause of the deaths. As she follows clues involving hallucinogenic pills, Sara learns more about the unsolved murder of Gorner's partner. As she and Danny struggle to assemble the information, Gorner implicates Jake in a drug deal gone awry and escapes with the cash and drugs. The mobsters who want their drugs and money back capture Jake and Gorner and pit them against each other. Affected by the hallucinogenic drug, Jake and Gorner are forced to play a deadly game. Sara and Danny find out about Gorner's corruption, and Sara uses the Witchblade to find Gorner before the drug-altered Jake kills him.
