Recovering alcoholic Andy Sipowicz (Dennis Franz) takes a personal interest in the case of hard-drinking Detective Mike Walsh (Larry Brandenberg), who is mixed up in a shooting at a bar. Walsh also becomes the center of a turf battle between Lt. Fancy (James McDaniel) and the skipper of the 27th precinct. And while assisting in an investigation, Bobby Simone (Jimmy Smits) exhibits more symptoms of an illness more serious than a mere respiratory ailment. Visiting the doctor, Bobby is hit with a bombshell when he is diagnosed with an enlarged heart. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Having run out of excuses and exhausted his supply of self-denial, Andy Sipowicz (Dennis Franz) undergoes prostate surgery.

In the conclusion of a two-part story, Sipowicz (Dennis Franz) continues to fret over his son Theo's bone-marrow test. Diane (Kim Delaney) confronts Jill (Andrea Thompson), forcing Jill to reveal why she has hidden the knowledge that her drug-running ex-husband, Don (Erich Anderson), is still alive. And in a tension-laden climax, Sorenson (Rick Schroder) prepares to nab Don, while Medavoy (Gordon Clapp) and Jones (Henry Simmons) set their sights on corrupt drug cop Denby (Scott Cohen). "The Last Round Up" and the preceding episode "Bats Off to Larry" were originally telecast as a single two-hour "special" episode, which served as NYPD Blue's seventh season finale -- not to mention the series swan song for actress Andrea Thompson. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
