Andy & Chris was on a run.

"You know that taking 100 steps backwards is like taking 1,000 steps forward? Burns 1/5 more calories, fixes, uh, lopsided muscles, corrects posture." Said Diaz while running with Andy "You know what they say? That if you're running while you're talking, you're not trying hard enough." She answered "Oh, no, I got great lung capacity. No matter how fast I run, I can still chat." Diaz replied "Hold on a second. Just - Get in the bush." Andy said when she saw Juliet she pulled Diaz back and put him in the bush [fence clanks] "I'm having Jamie flashbacks. She's still stalking me. Every time I see her, it's like she's lost more of her marbles, and I half-think they're falling into her bra, I swear to God. What are you doing?" Diaz said while he was in the bush "Just give me a second." Andy replied

"You can have more time." The mystery man said to Juliet in the car "I don't want more time. I'm ready to talk." Juliet replied "We're only gonna get one chance at this." He said "More time means more risk." She replied quickly "Okay. I'll talk to the boss, see if I can set something up." He mentioned "Tonight, if possible." She asked "You're pretty confident in what you've got." He asked her "Yeah. Let's just get this over with. She said as she opened the door and claimed back out

"You ever notice that the more you try to avoid somebody, the hotter she looks?" Diaz said still in the bush "Look, I just need you to be quiet for one second, okay?" McNally said to Diaz "McNally?" Juliet said as she spotted her "Juliet?" Andy replied pretending she just saw her then she continued "What are what are you doing here?" "What do you mean?" Juliet ask as she walked closer to Andy "Well, I mean I thought you lived on the other end of town." Andy asked

"Yeah, no, I was just walking the dog." Juliet answered "Oh, yeah?" Andy said with her arms on her hips and looking Down at the floor "I mean, it was my friend's dog, and then the friend took the dog home, so" Juliet said making a lie up "That makes sense." Andy replied "Yeah. I'm just really, you know, not ready to commit to one of my own." Juliet said "Uh-huh." Andy said to her "Yeah. Anyway, I will, uh, I guess I'll see you around." Juliet said to her as she walked off "See ya." Andy said as she turned her "What just happened?" Diaz said coming out of the bush.

Back at 15 division outside was Oliver and Sam

[laughing] "Ohh. Well, I can't believe it. It's Swarek, the traitor. I still can't believe that you chose a woman over sports." Oliver said as Sam pulled up next to his car as Oliver was sorting out baseball stuff Sam said  "Yeah, but not just any woman." "Ah, true. Uh, you know the deal. I got that 20-foot Stanley coming next week. It's got like 145 horsepower or something like that. You could ski behind it. But the, uh, plumbing that's still a bit rustic." Oliver mentioned as he passed the keys to Sam "Rustic is perfect." Sam replied "You know, you're leaving me a huge gap in the infield - Who's gonna play the hot corner?" Oliver asked "You got a whole lot of keeners. I've been at that game every single year." Sam said "Oh, no, I don't need keeners. I need veteran presence." Oliver replied "I owe you." Said Sam.

"All right, see you over there?" Dov said to McNally as she walked pass Dov and nick on the floor packing baseball balls "Nope. Got the keys to Oliver's cabin this weekend. McNally for the win." She said "Nice community spirit." Div said back "I already gave Oliver money for popsicles, so suck it." She said to Dov as she through a baseball back [chuckles]  Andy then jogged to the truck outside were Sam was and he opened the door for leaning over as he said "Hey." She replied "Hey. Come on. Let's roll." [engine turns over] "That's what I love about you, McNally your lack of enthusiasm." He said looking at her as she put her seat belt on as they drove off for there best weekend ever.

Sam and Andy both on the road

"120 more clicks to go, and then I'm throwing you in a lake. Clothing optional. [crunching] Would you like to know which option I prefer?" Sam said as he was driving looking at Andy as she was crunching crisps and ignoring the question as she changed the subject by saying "How long do you think it would take for a biker to infiltrate the police force?" She asked Sam "Say again?" Sam said "Hypothetical question." She answered "Infiltrate in what way?" Sam asked her.
