Jim opens the door to his apartment and throws his duffle bag on the floor. His German Shepard comes up to him and wanting to get out. Jim changes into his sweats, and takes his dog for a run.
Nothing better than this, he thinks to himself. Then it comes to him that this could be better. If Chris were there with him.
He shakes of the notion, having to remind himself that she is his partner. He runs back to his house tired and confused. With all of his thoughts jumbled in his head, he goes to sleep thinking of what's in store for him tomorrow.

BEEP, BEEP, BEEP. The clock read 5:30 a.m. and Chris wakes stumbling to shut off the alarm clock. Finally after a great struggle, she shuts it off. Chris jumps straight into the shower and gets ready to go to work. After a while she wakes Eliza and starts making her breakfast.
"Oatmeal again, Mama!" Eliza complains, tired of the same breakfast.
"Eliza, please. I promise I will make pancakes on Saturday. Now eat up or we will both be late."
"Mama, can we go to the park on Friday? Please??"
"Maybe, Eliza. but now we gotta hurry. It's time for me to go play cops and robbers."
"Okay."
Chris and Eliza get up from the table and grab their things: Eliza her books and backpack, Chris her gun and her duffle bag. They rush out to the car. Chris fumbles around with her keys, trying to find the right one. They both get in and buckle up. Chris drives up to Eliza's school. They jump out of the car just as the bell rings.
"Okay, Eliza. Go hurry. You're late again. Tell your teacher I'm sorry. Okay give me a kiss."
Chris bends down and give Eliza a hug and kiss.
"Bye Mommy!" Eliza shoots as she runs up the stairs to the door. Chris smiles and watches as Eliza gets in.
"Shit!" Chris says to herself as she looks at her watch. "God damn. I'm gonna be late again."
Chris drives up to the station. She runs up to the doors, drops her bag in the locker room and high tails it to Hondo's office.
"Sanchez, you're late, again."
"I know, I know, but I had to get my kid to school."
"Fine, but don't make a habit out of it."
Chris slips into the chair next to Jim. They exchange awkward smiles and looks. Hondo sits back down and starts talking to crew.
"Okay guys(Chris coughs)..and lady. Boxer is going to be out for the next 4 months and until then we need to find a replacement. And also we need to find a new member. So.. I guess it's time to go through some files."
Deke, Jim and Chris all give a sigh and look at each other.
"So. how many files we got?" Deke says.
"35...20 of them are rookies though.."
"Man.this more paper work than your last divorce." Jim states as he picks up the box full of files.
"Funny, Street. The bad news is Fuller wants them chosen by tomorrow 8 a.m."
"And I guess you just neglected to this before. Now I am not even going to be able to see my little girl tonight."
"So now are you gonna start shining Fuller's shoes, Hondo?" Jim replies.
"No, but for that comment you can start shining mine."
"Crap. We'll be here till Midnight." Deke adds into the conversation.
"You guys better get started then." Hondo says while ushering them out the door. As they leave, Hondo as a giant smile on his face. "Tell me who you guys choose."
"Lazy jackass," Jim mutters under his breathe.
"I heard that." Hondo slams the door shut.
"We'll we better get started." Deke says trying to keep a good attitude.
