Mismatch 2.
Watching Mackey in action at the hospital had unsettled Claudette. She was sure she wasn't going to enjoy doing things "his way".
She wondered how Dutch was managing with Shane? She smiled at the thought of her quiet, intellectual partner paired with his opposite.
Then she frowned to herself as she thought of his crestfallen expression when she'd failed to respond when he'd asked if she'd miss him. She'd been teasing, but realised he'd taken it to heart. The reality was she was missing him, they worked well together. Glancing at Vic she realised she did want her partner back.

Vic liked Claudette; she was a good cop. This whole change of partner's thing was a change of pace, but he wanted his team back. He knew he could only push things so far with Claudette, she'd only accept so much.
He'd get this drugs charge crap sorted with Julian and then things could just go back to the way they should be.
He wondered how Shane was managing working with Dutchboy? Wondered if he'd gotten Dutch to loosen up a bit, Wagenbach was too uptight. A little bit like Claudette really.
What Vic really wanted was his partner back.
