Disclaimer: I own neither Rizzoli and Isles nor Freaky friday, I'm just borrowing them.
It starts out as an ordinary Friday, a day like any other. It is routine, unremarkable. They meet for breakfast at a local diner and are interrupted by their respective phones signifying their presence is required at a murder scene. They take separate cars to the crime scene, Jane stopping to collect her partner, Barry Frost, who has already left meaning Jane arrives late at the scene.
Detective Jane Rizzoli struts towards the crime scene, her natural swagger accentuated by the setting. She commands authority easily and can virtually see respect cross the features of those she passes. She is a formidable woman.
As she approaches the scene she sees her breakfast companion kneeling by a dead body. Doctor Maura Isles is the Chief Medical Examiner of Massachusetts and is also formidable in her own field. Jane can tell that from Maura's position that she has nearly finished her initial examination.
Maura hears the familiar click clack of Jane's boots approaching and turns her head to see Jane. She is immediately struck by how beautiful Jane is, her raven hair blowing in the wind framing her strong Italian features. She is powerful, strong and confident. She is fearless.
The women share a kinship; a deep friendship and something underlying, if they would admit it to each other. They have the utmost respect for each other and would take a bullet if it means the other would live.
The sight of Maura appraising her makes Jane's pulse rate increase slightly. Jane considers that Maura is stunning, intelligent, sharp and the most exquisite creature she has ever laid eyes on. She can't help herself and beams at the Doctor. She is magnificent.
Maura goes to stand to greet the Detective. The combination of the wondrous looks between the women and the five inch heels that she wears causes the usually collected Doctor to falter. Jane immediately catches her.
Just as their bodies touch both women have the same thought.
"I wonder what's it's like to be you?"
Suddenly Jane is struck by the feeling that her feet hurt. She looks down and finds herself wearing Maura's clothes and heels. She looks at Maura and finds well herself staring back at her.
What in the hell just happened?
"Maura." Jane hisses.
"Jane. Why are you dressed like me?"
"I am you and you're me. Keep your voice down, this is crazy!"
"Oh Jane, this is unbelievable."
"I know. Look we have to get back to the precinct before someone notices. Let's go to the Morgue and work out what in the hell is going on and how it happened."
The women walk off together both completely freaked out.
"How the hell do you walk in these damn shoes?"
"How do you not perspire in synthetic fibres?"
Jane walks towards her car.
"Jane, where are you going?"
Maura nods her head towards her Prius.
"You're me remember."
How could she forget? Don't look at her boobs. Don't look at her boobs!
This was going to be impossible!
Let me know if you think I should continue...
