Episode 2: New Jack Hustlers: The Dark Knight

Synopsis

New York awakens to a city on edge as a mysterious figure dubbed The Dark Knight is blamed for the rapid spread of the deadly opioid Nuclidusan. Under mounting pressure from city, state, and federal leadership, Quinn and his task force are ordered to act fast—despite having no clear target. As covert drops go wrong and a critical drug pickup is quietly foiled, cracks begin to surface inside the criminal network, revealing that this operation is far more disciplined than anyone anticipated. Behind the scenes, the Dark Knight watches calmly from above, already anticipating law enforcement’s next move. Political ambition and optics override caution, pushing authorities toward a series of coordinated dawn raids meant to show strength rather than truth. As armored vehicles roll through the sleeping city, it becomes clear that this war is being fought on multiple fronts—and not everyone wants it won. The episode ends with New York bracing for impact, unaware that the man they’re hunting has already planned his escape.
