Commenting on the arrest of multiple young men from Harlem by NYPD, Ridley reminded Smith that they were hired to serve and protect the citizens and that they conducted their search without harming the people. Despite Smith's demands and Ridley's own will to find Cage, who was in the center of three current investigations, she noted that they need to be careful. Smith replied that the time for being careful was gone since Cage ran away, so they need results. Ridley told Smith to keep in mind that he is serving Harlem and its people and asked him to arrest Cage without causing more damage to Harlem.[1]
