What Season 5 of 21 Jump Street

The fifth season of 21 Jump Street follows a special unit of the Metropolis police, a fictional city in the state of Evergreen. The officers work out of an old church converted into headquarters on Jump Street, and their youthful looks let them pass as students. When regular cops can't go undercover, they take on covert missions, mostly in high schools and, less often, in colleges. Their focus is on drug trafficking and other crimes among young people. Tom Hanson, played by Johnny Depp, is part of the group, which must win its classmates' trust without raising suspicion. Each case is told from inside the classroom.
