Tom got out of his car and walked up to Judy's apartment building. He had practiced his actions as though he read a script for them on his way there. He anxiously knocked on her apartment door. While he waited for her to open the door, he debated whether or not to ask about this "Jimmy" character that has been troubling his mind since this morning.
"Tom! What brings you here on a school night" Judy said jokingly.
"Sorry to bother you, but I was hoping we could talk. Am I interrupting anything?"
"No, not at all. Actually I just got home ten minutes ago. Come on in and make yourself at home." she said sensitively. "Are you ok?" Judy said closing the door.
Tom couldn't even answer her question. He was blown away by her outfit. He has seen Judy in tight clothing before, but he just never realized that she had such an amazing body. "Nice dress. Blue looks excellent on you." He said ignoring her previous question.
"Tom, are you feeling alright? Come sit down with me." Judy grabbed his hand and pulled him toward her couch.
When they sat down, she leaned back and crossed her legs which showed a little too much thigh for Tom to take. He quickly looked away.
"Tom you seem quite… nervous. Tell me what's wrong." Judy then ran her fingers through his hair like a concerned parent.
Judy moved in closer and put her hand on his hand. "You can tell me anything. I promise." Tom looked deep into her eyes and moved in for a kiss. It was quite obvious that Judy wanted the same as she moved forward as well, but then there was another knock on the door.
Judy jumped up and answered the door. Tom stood up and began biting on his thumbnail as he shook his head in disappointment, disappointment with himself. Then Tom heard a familiar voice. It was Doug.
"Doug, hey man! What are you doing here?" Tom asked.
"I came to bring Judy these roses as an apology for trying to take credit for the ones delivered this morning. I'd like to ask you the same thing." Penhall stated.
"I needed to talk to Jude about something if you don't mind Doug."
Judy just watched with confusion as the two men went back and forth. Then another knock came from the door. "You two, sit down and I'll be right back." Judy said in a stern voice.
Doug slapped Tom on the upper arm. "What are you doing here man?" Doug asked.
"I came to talk to her. Next time should I check in with you first?" Tom said getting in Doug's face.
"Please do!" Doug snapped back. "Wait a second…Are you trying to hook up with Hoffs?"
Before Tom could answer, Judy returned with Ioki at her side.
"Ioki! Not you too!" exclaimed Doug.
"I just came by because I was bored at home. I stopped by the video store and picked up a movie for Judy and myself." Ioki explained.
The three officers looked at each other and then at Judy, who was not pleased.
"What the hell is going on here? Somebody better give me an answer now!" she shouted.
