The Gold Coin Kid is the sixth episode of The Chicago Code.
Detective Jarek Wysocki tells police superintendent Teresa Colvin that his niece, officer Vonda Wysocki radioed for backup on a shots-fired call and got no response because her radio's battery was dead. Colvin explains that the mayor's office is holding up her request for new radios, but she promises to remedy the situation.
Later, Jarek and his partner, Caleb Evers, are pretending to be repo men to lure three crack-dealing brothers out of their house. When one takes off on a motorcycle, Jarek blocks his way with the tow truck, and he too gets arrested.
Meanwhile, the mayor's chief-of-staff, Dennis Mahoney, tells Colvin that the money for her new radios was spent elsewhere. She's not happy to hear this.
Back at the station, drug task force officer Moosekian - unhappy that Jarek and Caleb arrested the brothers - interrupts their interrogation, saying that Colvin wants Jarek and Caleb to meet her at a hospital.
When they arrive, Colvin introduces local philanthropist Amanda Langley, whose son, Teddy, O.D.'d on heroin and wound up in a coma. Amanda says that Teddy was trying to get clean with the help of his girlfriend, Emily, and wants his drug dealer arrested, noting that Teddy's car is missing.
Emily's roommate, Taylor, tells Jarek and Caleb that Teddy met them at a nightclub last night and left angry, but Emily followed him. She hasn't seen them since, but she has Teddy's dealer Mason Goldberg's address.

Mar 15, 2011 · “The Gold Coin Kid” was a good episode of The Chicago Code, I thought. Better than last week’s, to be sure, if not as rich or exciting as the first couple of episodes.
