Analysis
Rachel and Frank have a conversation at the end of the episode which just about shapes their partnership for the rest of the series. After Frank goes off on his own and is subsequently investigated by Internal Affairs, Rachel tells him that if she's going to be his partner, it has to be all the time, not just when it suits him. Frank finally gets what she is saying and offers to buy her a drink. From this moment on, there wasn't too many times that Frank did something without telling Rachel.
