Tim and Lucy + Boot

My first few days on the job, you kicked me out of the car, tormented me. A month later, you – you – you stole my duty belt while I had to go pee. You called me “Boot” so many times, I get triggered when I go shoe shopping.

Yeah, but the aura of guilt haunted Lincoln’s reputation like a dark shroud. I’m sorry. That was really good. Thanks.

Rating Season 4 Chenford Moments

We’re halfway through the season, and coming up on a mini-hiatus, so I thought it would be fun to rate the Chenford moments we got this season so far!

This is essentially a ranking of each episode in terms of overarching Chenford plot/content. All gif credits go to the lovely @chenfordsource ! Please feel free to reblog with your own rating/ranking/additional moments!

4x01 Chenford hug #1 and (almost) sleepover 8/10

It feels like we had dreamed up endless possibilities for what could happen in the premier and it was almost too good to be true that one of them actually happened - Tim took Lucy home with him for the night and she almost slept in his bed!

She asked for a hug, to which he agreed with a “come here” (!) following which there was a verrry long look, and then: Lucy. almost. went. into. his. room.

I was almost in shock watching this scene, and nervous that something more would happen, which would have felt too soon, in my opinion. I love how they left the scene and personally it doesn’t bother me that this moment wasn’t brought up again because it was connected to the grief about Jackson.

We didn’t get much more Chenford in this episode, and I think I would have enjoyed this moment so much more if it hadn’t been in the promo but nevertheless this was a huge moment for them so 8/10!

4x02 Lucy pranks Tim with booties - twice! - and he compliments her 6/10

The prank! The (baby) booties! The locker room scene! Tim’s smile! This was a welcome surprise in an episode where Chenford weren’t even riding together. This gets a solid 6/10.

4x03 Lucy and Tim flirt banter about Lucy becoming Tim’s go-fer aide 7/10

The lead-up to Chenford deciding to ride together again was almost even better than their later scenes actually riding together again.

The stubbornness, the way these two were openly bantering in the roll call room, and finally, that conversation at the end of the episode!

A conversation that gave us lines like: “a very handsome boy” and “screw what anyone else thinks?” which simultaneously made us think Tim might be aware of what is developing between him and Lucy, and also wonder if Lucy is anywhere close to beginning to think of Tim in that way.

I give this a heaping 7/10.

Although, this did leave me wondering: was this a step in the right direction, or was it just an additional obstacle they would need to overcome? I’m still 50:50 on that.

4x04 Tim and Lucy…spend some time working together? 3/10

In this episode…we had some screen time with Tim and Lucy together…! lol

I wrote another post pointing out some positives after this aired but aside from the Tardis comment, a moment when Lucy seemed to impress Tim with the state department, and them sitting close together in that truck, there wasn’t much to go on. At least they were together for part of the episode before Tim disappeared? A generous 3/10.

4x05 Tim and Lucy talk about having babies together 5/10

The topic did seem to come out of nowhere, but we got Chenford talking about having kids, plus Chenford interacting with kids on the job. I still think it’s foreshadowing. What more could a shipper want??

No Chenford for the second half of the ep though, unfortunately. 5/10

4x06 Tim and Lucy make another bet and continue to be competitive dorks, which everyone notices 6/10

Another episode where Tim and Lucy aren’t riding together (and so soon after getting “back together”) but still have some quality interactions! That handholdshake? Talking to their other teammates about beating each other (we saw that exchanged look, Nyla and Nolan). Their full-body reactions at the end when Tim won they tied!

Giving this a 6/10, since in terms of progression to their relationship, there was a minor setback with the whole Ashley introduction.

4x07 Chenford have a bet rematch including a 🔥 van scene 7/10

The competitive banter this episode was amazing, their case was fun, and we got the closest we’ll probably ever get to an UC Chenford plot. I loved the entire van scene from Lucy criticizing Tim’s outfit and essentially dressing him, to him hiking his shirt up higher than I’m sure was necessary, to Lucy not knowing where to look, to her highly entertaining commentary in his ear.

However, the ending left me confused, and I kind of wish the bet had been outside of work like the one in 2x03. Not ending the episode on a “high note” rounds this score down to a (still impressive) 7/10.

4x08 Lucy meets her future SIL and gives Tim some advice 4/10

It was cute to see Lucy and Genny bond in this episode, and Lucy’s words to Tim at the end were definitely coming from the right place, but looking at this episode as a whole without what was to come in 4x09 - especially with the camera angles - didn’t score very high for me in terms of overall Chenford plot. This was a great episode for Tim, of course, but we didn’t get to see as much of supportive Lucy (yet!) as I would have liked. Oh, and we find out Tim is not single. 4/10

4x09 Lucy supports Tim investigating a case involving his dad, and we get our SECOND CHENFORD HUG 10/10

This episode blew me away. I want to thank whoever kept most of the Chenford stuff out of the promotional material, because it made it that much better. All of Lucy’s scenes were with Tim, from helping out at his old house (I still want to know how that came about), to going with him to the station on their day off (his confident “c'mon Chen”!), to interrogating a suspect for him, to that final hallway scene and HUG.

Her “come here”, paralleling 4x01, her reassuring “you’re nothing like him”, Tim just breaking down and melting in her arms…this whole storyline definitely felt like a significant milestone in their relationship and I loved this hug even more than their first. My only complaint is we didn’t get to linger on it longer! 10/10

4x10 Tim needs Lucy’s help yet again in his relationship 5/10

We get a hint of jealous!Lucy, them talking about Kojo, and of course the scene where she calls Tim a sweetheart. Having Ashley call Lucy was a welcome surprise and the show is being pretty obvious this time around about contrasting how well Tim and Lucy know each other vs their LIs. Plus we got another parking garage scene!

On the other hand, we got introduced to Lucy’s new LI and Tim had an ending scene with Ashley so overall I’m giving the Chenford content a 5/10.

4x11 Tim is a supportive *partner* to Lucy while dealing with a personal case 5/10

This was another good episode for Lucy (a continuation of what I hope is her upcoming “personal journey” from last ep), and it was nice to see Tim kind of take a step back and let Lucy take the lead on this one, while still letting her know he was there if she needed him. Overall there wasn’t much development in their relationship, but we did get to see Tim in her apartment again, plus another interaction with Tamara, and they did have a sweet moment in the shop where he asked if she was ok. 5/10

4x12 TIM AND LUCY GO ON A [double] DATE 9/10

Unlike Tim, we were well fed in 4x12!! We have never seen Tim and Lucy act the way they acted on that date and it only highlighted how far they have come and how well they know each other. Stealing food, sharing inside jokes, finishing each other’s sentences, sitting next to each other (turned towards each other!) and basically ignoring their dates - I think this exceeded our expectations and then some!

It was also great to see them solve the main case of the episode together. Personal space, what’s that??

The only reason this isn’t getting a 10 is because they each ended the episode with their LIs and not each other. 9/10

Final ascending ranking:

12. 4x04 Tim and Lucy…spend some time working together? 3/10

11. 4x08 Lucy meets her future SIL and gives Tim some advice 4/10

10. 4x05 Tim and Lucy talk about having babies together 5/10

9. 4x11 Tim is a supportive *partner* to Lucy while dealing with a personal case 5/10

8. 4x10 Tim needs Lucy’s help yet again in his relationship 5/10

7. 4x02 Lucy pranks Tim with booties - twice! - and he compliments her 6/10

6. 4x06 Tim and Lucy make another bet and continue to be competitive dorks, which everyone notices 6/10

5. 4x03 Lucy and Tim flirt banter about Lucy becoming Tim’s go-fer aide 7/10

4. 4x07 Chenford have a bet rematch including a 🔥 van scene 7/10

3. 4x01 Chenford hug #1 and (almost) sleepover 8/10

2. 4x12 TIM AND LUCY GO ON A [double] DATE 9/10

1. 4x09 Lucy supports Tim investigating a case involving his dad, and we get our SECOND CHENFODR HUG 10/10

If you’ve made it this far, thanks and I hope you enjoyed - would love to hear your thoughts too!

I’ve been working on the Chenford Bingo by @chenfordsource. Latest installment ‘college ruled paper’ fills the Love Note square.

A sneak peak….

With the hustle of a robbery, the love notes conversation is forgotten to Tim. It’s replaced by a million more conversations between the two of them. But Lucy must remember at the end of their shift, because in the center of his desk amongst the mountain of paperwork there sits peanut butter cups, a still hot cup of coffee, and a love note. On college ruled paper, neatly folded with a pull tab in familiar handwriting.

Tim, (There is even a heart for a dot.)

This is a love note.

@raidens-realm ;)
