Separate But Equal
“Hey, captain,” said Ryan, holding out a sheet of paper. “I’m putting in for a day off.”
Beckett accepted it, then frowned. “March seventeenth?” she asked. “Saint Patrick’s day?”
“Yes, please,” he said.
“A day off?” asked Esposito. “I thought you loved Saint Paddy’s day.”
“I do!” his partner protested. “But that’s exactly why I need the day off. You have no idea what it’s like to be an Irish cop on Saint Patrick’s day.”
“Like being a Latino cop on Cinco de Mayo?” Esposito suggested.
Ryan frowned, then brightened. “Trade you?”
“Deal! Uh, if it’s okay?”
Beckett smiled. “Sure.”
