* FranchiseOriginalSin: Mac Taylor and Jo Danville are seen unintentionally unsympathetically for their constant decision to ignore the failings of the systems in cases involving people who were made the way they were because of the system's failures. "Prey" in Season 5 featured a case just like this, with a stalking victim named Dana who did ''everything'' legal to get away from her stalker, but the law was too weak to punish her stalker significantly. He inevitably found her, at which point he started escalating to violence, and so she killed him since the system already failed her. Mac does lean on his usual "murder is murder" belief, but at the end of the episode, is clearly sympathetic to Dana, and even admits that arresting her is one of the more difficult parts of the job. Unlike future seasons, this episode acknowledged that while killing him may not have been necessarily right, but made it clear that circumstances left her with few other choices.
