EPISODE 1: FRESH PAINT

Okay...a couple of weeks ago, I rented Rookie Blue, Season 1.  Box Set, one month rental.  $19.63.
___________________

One of the final scenes of the pilot episode illustrates just how special the lead character, Andy McNally really is...
_________

Her first real arrest, a very young man who shot a dealer [responsible for the OD of the young man's kid sister]...The young man is very lucky that he ran into a rookie, because only a rookie, this rookie, would have handled things the way Andy did.  To start with, she didn't shoot him.  Procedure dictated that she should have...since he had threatened her with the murder weapon.
_________

The moment that illuminates is the shot showing McNally as she hands over her first arrest to her training officer.  The actress' face shows compassion for the young man's situation...we also see that she's just as surprised as her training officer is.  As her father says later, you're the real deal, Andy.  And you're going to be great.

P.S.

Feels nice to post again.  I've decided that I'll post till late December, and then stop till June 2012.  That's when Rookie's 3rd season begins.  Then I'll start posting [about season 2] and restore comment capability also. 


Fake it till you make it!

Hi Getjets!

The picture was taken in the hotel, just before Doug and his F/O [Maurice] were driven to the airport.

Maybe Doug can send it to you via e-mail?
