Mike McNeil is a decorated New York City detective whose toughest assignment is himself. He's struggling to balance a challenging personal life with a job that leaves him wondering on a daily basis if he is the last sane person in New York. His unconventional approach to his job makes him a great cop, even on the most trying days. The only thing he can't figure out is why, if he's the only sane guy around, everyone's always looking at him like he's crazy.

McNeil is trying to juggle the demands of his wife, his girlfriend and his partner, Pip, who has doubts about his own attractiveness. Meanwhile, a guilty suspect refuses to confess, prompting some fresh approaches by Frank, Tommy and McNeil, and someone is throwing cans of beans out the window at unsuspecting pedestrians. It is up to Mike and his colleagues to make the city safer, without losing their minds or their lives in the process.

McNeil and Pip are assigned to take the District Attorney's twelve-year-old daughter on a ride-along for her school paper. McNeil is less than thrilled about their assignment, especially when they lose her in the city. Meanwhile, Frank disguises himself as a priest to draw a confession out of a parishioner, and an unconventional "nun" strips down to more than her habit at the precinct.
