Summary
The main plot of this episode gets a little confusing. The main idea is that there is a band of Asian intruders who are copy-catting a Vietnamese gang who breaks into houses of Vietnamese and steal everything insight and scare the daylights out of the residents. The difference with the copy-catters is that they are robbing Chinese owners and they have killed an innocent man trying to protect his family. The key element in both of the gangs is that no one that is robbed will talk to the police because they do not believe the American police can stop the gangs.
The lighter story going on in the background is that of the return of Joe Dominguez after getting shot in GENESIS helping Nash out. Joe's wife Ingar has kicked him out after irreconcilable differences became unbearable and now Joe needs a place to stay. The whole idea of Joe living with Nash for even one night is funny in and of itself.
A third, and more interesting, story appears in the form of Nash's second ex-wife Kelly. This story-line is interesting because you find out more about the relationship that ended before any of the viewers got a chance to see. We learn that Nash and Kelly are still in love, but they are just unable to live with each other - a roll in the hay, on the other hand, is acceptable.
By the end of the episode all three story-lines have collided right in Nash's living room. Both Kelly and Cassidy were spending the night at Nash's, along with Joe, when the invaders decide to give Nash a warning. Thanks to this, Kelly remembers why she couldn't stay with Nash before, Cassidy gets swept away by Lisa, ex-wife number one. Nash is told he can see his only daughter on Lisa's territory, and Joe returns home to Ingar after agreeing to move to Switzerland. What else is there for Nash to do, but toast with Joe over a bottle of beer and look exasperated. [written by nashb]

Quote
Kelly has just bought Nash dinner in payment for saving her from the date from hell. Coming out of the resturant, Nash mentions how they shouldn't have had that second bottle of wine. Nash asks, "Wanna split a cab?" Kelly: "Actually, I'd rather go home with you." After they kiss Kelly teases Nash by saying, "I bought you dinner mister, now you have to put put." To which Nash responds with a coy smile, " MMM, Careful. I still have my handcuffs." [nashb]
