_{EPISODE GUIDE}

Siege

Blair: I will dress up in an evening gown like J. Edgar Hoover if you thought it would help. I want this partnership...

Jim: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Stop right there, Chief.

Blair: Yeah, I know. I'm never to refer to us as partners.

Jim: That's right.

Blair: I'm strictly the observer.

Simon: Jim, when you first told me about this guy I was expecting an academic not some neo-hippie flower child with time on his hands now that the Dead have broken up. Frankly, I'm having a hard time buying that you want him on your tail.

Jim: Yeah, for now. But from now on when I tell you to do something, you do it; when I tell you to say something, you say it, the way I tell you to say it, okay? Are we clear?

Blair: Yes, we're clear.

Jim: Very good.

Vera: Now, Mr. Sandburg, the department requests all incoming personnel to submit to a drug test. I hope that's not a problem for you.

Blair: Oh, come on! Do I look like that would be a problem? (pause) Don't answer that.

Simon: How do you think your buddy Sandburg's doing?

Jim: It's hard to say. I don't know him all that well.

Simon: Isn't he your cousin's kid?

Jim: Yeah. We just didn't see that side of the family that much, you know.

Kincaid: What makes you think that your sorry ass is worth anything to anybody?

Blair: Banks sent me in.

Kincaid: You're a cop?

Blair: Yeah. Lieutenant Sandburg, Narcotics. I've been teamed with Ellison.

Blair: I'm not really a cop! I was lying!

Kincaid: Shut up!

Blair: I'm an anthropologist.

Kincaid: Yeah, and I'm the president.

Blair: I'm not with these guys! I'm Detective Ellison's partner....colleague.

Simon: It's okay, guys. He's on our team!

Blair: Did you say I was on your team?

Simon: Strictly as an observer.

Blair: Right, right. As an observer. Strictly. Of course.

Blair: You told him, didn't you?

Jim: Yeah, I had to.

Blair: What happened? Did he, like, freak or what?

Jim: No. I actually think it's all going to turn out to be just fine.

Blair: Great, great. There's just one more thing I got to ask you.

Jim: What's that?

Blair: This wasn't like a typical day for you, was it? Well, is it?
