Mismatch 1.
Christ, Shane Vendrell was an unthinking, insensitive moron. He hoped this was only for one day, because Dutch didn't think he'd last any longer without taking his stupid orange ball and ramming it down his throat.
Glancing at Claudette's empty desk he tried to repress his insecurity. She hadn't seemed to care that they were going to be split up. "Maybe she's getting tired of you, just like everyone does." A voice in the back of his head sneered.
Looking up Dutch could see Vendrell fidgeting and pulling faces like a hyper-active child.
It was going to be a long day.

Shane was bored. This whole drugs mess hanging over them was bad enough, but now he was stuck in the Barn with nothing to do. He needed some action, something to take the edge off his nerves. Instead he was stuck with Dutch.
The guy was a nerd. The kind of mis-fit Shane and his buddies had teased and tormented at high school.
Passing his ball from one hand to another he looked at Wagenbach as he sat hunched over his desk. A paper-pusher who'd never break any really big cases.
It was going to be a long day.
