Appearances

"Oh Captain, My Captain"

He met with Renard in his office at the precinct, where Renard told him that as the new captain of the precinct, he'd report directly to the mayor's office. Grossante told him it would be an honor to succeed him as captain, but Renard told him that before he would announce his decision to step down as captain, Grossante would have to prove his loyalty to Renard in particular. Grossante responded, "I'm ready anytime... sir."

To prove his loyalty, Grossante killed Jeremiah Rogers in his own apartment, as Jeremiah was proving to be a problem for Renard because he was blackmailing him over Rachel Wood's death. ("Set Up") Grossante apologized for getting some blood on Renard, though Renard brushed this off and congratulated Grossante on his promotion.

However, later that evening, Renard, who was actually Nick in disguise, announced he was abdicating his position as mayor-elect, prompting Grossante to speak with Renard at his office to find out what was going on. Things escalated quickly, however, as it appeared "Renard" (still Nick in disguise) agreed that Grossante had proved his loyalty. Grossante told him that they'd have a problem if he didn't take over as captain, but Nick told him the blood getting on his shirt was a "dealbreaker." Furious with this explanation, Grossante woged, but Nick talked him down quickly by threatening to kill him, and Grossante ominously told him he wouldn't forget this, before leaving.
