"Bad Day at Blackburn" channeled some energy from earlier seasons of 21 Jump Street. Fuller, Hoffs, and Mac must stop a group of students from terrorizing a High School, extorting students through physical intimidation.
The episode begins with Fuller witnessing his old friend having a heart attack as they talking about the old days. In full mid-life crisis mode, he begins working out and decides to take on the school bullies single handedly. Suddenly were in one of those school vigilante films from the 1980s! There's a boxing scene where Fuller actually loses control.
More stylistic than previous episodes of the fifth season and Williams bring more intensity than usual, proving the series still had some edge it its final few installments.
