In this episode, the Jump Street crew is on the case of a young girl’s murder, discovered by a diligent paper boy. They go undercover at an elite school, where they encounter some wealthy students and a shady drug dealer. Can they gather enough evidence to place them at the scene of the crime?
Overall, the episode is not too shabby. It’s pretty run-of-the-mill, actually. While most episodes have those gripping moments that keep you on the edge of your seat, this one just didn’t quite hit the mark.
