Major Crimes Season 4 premiere takes place on Monday night, and episode 1 is set to provide some real drama for fans of the hit show. The TNT show will return with a bonus five episode arc and a double homicide case tied to a previous older case for Tao and a former partner played by Jason Gedrick. The Major Crimes Season 4 premiere episode can be watched on TV on the TNT network with a scheduled start time of 9 p.m. ET and can be watched online through free live stream via the link below.

Major Crimes series creator James Duff has described, "A woman and her baby are shot to death in an SUV as its gliding through a Latino gang's territory at 1 am in the morning. When we examine the car, we find heroin under the baby seat, and there is a huge turf war going on between the Bloods and the Diablos for the street trade in heroin. And when we check the [bullet] casings, it points back to a murder committed 12 years ago, where the gun was never found," according to TV Line.

Duff further described that the case was years ago and involved multiple murders of an off duty police officer, as well as a deputy district attorney. Tao's old partner, Hickman reportedly "perjured himself on the stand in an attempt to close the case, and was fired."

That incident sparked a grudge, as the ex-officer felt like he was singled out and used as a scapegoat.

Duff said, "He feels that everybody perjures themselves, that the police are on the side of good and it doesn't matter what they say, but that's not how the LAPD works anymore. It may have worked that way in the late '80s, early '90s, mid '90s, but not anymore."

He continued: "It was the case that ended his career and ruined his life, but now that the gun is back out there and someone is using it, he has a very good case. It's an interesting story, and it features Tao (Michael Paul Chan) and Sykes (Kearran Giovanni) in ways we haven't seen them working before."
