Wade Grey: Bradford, how did the Make-A-Dream visit go with Marcus?

Tim Bradford: It went... fine.

Lucy Chen: Define "fine."

Tim Bradford: The kid had a good time. Mission accomplished.

John Nolan: That's suspiciously vague.

Angela Lopez: Tim, what happened?

Tim Bradford: Nothing happened. We showed him around, explained some procedures, let him sit in the patrol car.

Aaron Thorsen: And?

Tim Bradford: And Lucy's coming with me to the follow-up visit.

Lucy Chen: WAIT, WHAT?

Celina Juarez: Follow-up visit?

Tim Bradford: Marcus specifically requested that his "police parents" both come to his birthday party next week.

Angela Lopez: I'm sorry, POLICE PARENTS?

Lucy Chen: We're not his police parents!

Tim Bradford: Tell that to Marcus. And his actual parents. And the entire Make-A-Dream Foundation.

Nyla Harper: I need details. Now.

Tim Bradford: Lucy, you explain. This is YOUR fault.

Lucy Chen: How is this MY fault?

Tim Bradford: You signed me up! You told them I was a "teddy bear"!

Aaron Thorsen: Wait, what did Marcus say exactly?

Tim Bradford: He told his parents that Sergeant Tim and Sergeant Lucy were "the sweetest parents ever."

John Nolan: Oh my god.

Lucy Chen: But I wasn't even there!

Tim Bradford: YOU WERE THERE.

Lucy Chen: I was just dropping off paperwork!

Celina Juarez: Lucy, what did you do?

Lucy Chen: I may have... talked to Marcus for a few minutes while Tim was getting his gear.

Tim Bradford: A few minutes?

Lucy Chen: Twenty minutes, tops.

Tim Bradford: She gave him a full tour of the station, let him play with the fingerprint scanner, AND bought him lunch.

Angela Lopez: That's actually really sweet, Lucy.

Lucy Chen: See? I was being nice!

Tim Bradford: You also told him we were "work partners and life partners."

Lucy Chen: I DID NOT SAY THAT.

Tim Bradford: You said we were "the best team ever and always look out for each other."

Aaron Thorsen: That's basically the same thing to a kid.

John Nolan: What did Marcus say?

Tim Bradford: He asked if we were married.
