Dempsey and Makepeace

Dempsey: You know, before we get any further, I think we need to get a few things straight, right now. First off, I didn't ask for this transfer. I got detailed. Number two, I don't agree with women having anything to do with police work. They don't know how a criminal minds functions and they simply cannot cope with the physical stress that the job demands. Having said all that and assuming you've already tried to get Spikings to change his mind and you failed. I figure we're stuck with each other. Here's what I propose. I'm prepared to overlook your shortcomings, if you're willing to ignore my, sometimes, brash behaviour and my annoying little habit of always being right. Oh yeah, and the fact that you're a sergeant and I'm a lieutenant.
