Bombs Away

Bombs Away is the fifteenth episode of the second season of NYPD Blue.

Summary
Simone and Sipowicz collide in their squad car with a Romanian immigrant who has a woman locked in the trunk of his car and later, their investigation shows him to be a possible terrorist and holding a wealthy family prisoner with pipe bombs. Meanwhile, the serial killer, George Putnam is shot by an unknown sniper. Simone begins to investigate the father of the killer's last victim, Mr. Rudman, and another member of a victim's support group... who all appear to be part of a secret vigilante group. Medavoy talks to Dana about his relationship with Donna if he's losing interest in her, but the crafty Dana takes advantage of the situation to try to break them up by playing on his mental neurosis as the cause of Donna's lack of trust in Medavoy. Also, Martinez keeps asking Lesniak to go out on a date with him.
