Blue is back, now with 75% more ass!

The Blue cops are in a sidebar with Cohen. Sip grumbles about lawyers working for "the dark side, defending rapists" and I hear "dark side" and think of Glark's bastard Star Wars parodies. Sip, I am your father (breathing like Darth Vader). Sorry. So yeah, Sip grumps out but takes it back. Cohen recaps last season's highlights: Kirky's asshole loser ex took her kids hostage and that's why the Blue squad took down him and Denby. Plus, we saw Baldwin's ass. Well, Cohen doesn't mention it, but it certainly was a highlight. Oh my, yes. So IAB is going after Medavoy first because, in Sip's words, "he's the weak link." Medavoy lifts his head from his arms and takes some weak umbrage, and Sip amends that to "the least involved." Cohen strides out and Medavoy follows comically, then pivots and says, "Don't worry, they won't get squat outta me." Sip makes a Don Quixote comparison then says it was Kirky's "bad taste in men that got us in this," and oh my god, Sip is so Archie Bunker, blaming the woman. Di and Ricky give him a look and walk out, then Sip rolls his eyes so mightily and with such heft that I forgive him for being such a sexist bastard. Damn, that guy can roll his eyes.

Ricky's at the water fountain, and Di sneaks up behind him. Isn't he cute when he slurps? And the rest of the time too? Di loves Ricky. They try to talk about work but only manage to talk about themselves. Medavoy will be fine, and that crack about Vermont? Di says he didn't "misread any signals," and that they "should leave it alone." A uniform comes up and inturrpts them, something about some junkie. Ricky snaps at him until he goes away, then he and Di confirm that they are, in fact, cool and besides, Di is "old enough to be [his] mother." Ricky gets all eye-twinkly and says, "What, did you have me when you were six?" Yeah, they have a May-May fifteenth romance. Di comes as close to beaming as anyone ever does on this show. Aw. They are in looove!

Sip makes another call to Theo's doctor about his test. Fancy notices, and Ricky knocks over some pencils to alert Sip to the fact that Fancy has noticed. As if Sip cares. Is it police-work time yet?
