10 Things Tracy Never Did
1) Tracy never – had a genius partner (Law & Order:CI)
"So as I saying," Tracy frowned, her new partner, Robert "Bobby" Goren, was
now crouched down on the linoleum looking up at the bottom of the truck stop
diner's counter. She watched him take a small sniff and hoped to God he wouldn't
try and taste anything. She'd been warned about Goren's –unusual- techniques, but
that was nothing compared to seeing them in action, "Uh, I think we should talk to the
neighbor again, I don't think he was being very forthcoming…"
"Tracy," Suddenly his large, warm hand was around her wrist as he pulled her
down beside him on the floor, "What do you make of that?"
"Uh, gum?" Tracy frowned again, she was beginning to think Nick Knight
wasn't the weirdest detective around anymore, Nick never made her kneel in split
pea soup… at least she hoped it was soup.
"Not just any gum," Goren smiled at her, a look at once so intense and
unguarded that Tracy's breath almost caught, "It's Brekberry Stillhouse, they only
make that in small batches in Stillhouse, Scotland."
"Scotland, like Colm MacLeod," Tracy's eyes widened as she thought of their
victim's brother-in-law.
"Exactly!" And with that he was helping her to stand as they headed back to
the lab, they had the beginning of a trail, now all they had to do was follow it.
2) Tracy never – was admitted to Sacred Heart Medical (Scrubs)
"And then we get to your head wound," J.D. grinned down at his chart, before
turning the clipboard and showing Tracy, "See? I drew your head."
Tracy blinked at him, wondering absently if he knew there was a spaghettiO
stuck to his cheek.
"Can it, Charlotte," Another doctor came in, grabbing J.D.'s chart and
shoving him to the side, "What he's trying to say Miss Vetter-"
"Detective," Tracy corrected, then added with a grin, "I'm a police detective,
but you can call me Tracy."
"Well, Detective," J.D. made his way back to Dr. Cox's side, "It's no –
mystery- that you'll be fine."
"Newbie," Cox rolled his eyes, "Even for you that was bad, and you've told
some doozies."
"She's a detective," J.D. began, saw he wasn't getting anywhere, then turned
on his heels and left the room. He'd find Turk, he'd think it was funny.
3) Tracy never – helped with another autopsy (X-files)
"See anything?" Tracy squinted down into the gaping chest cavity, she made
a face. It was just… unpleasant.
Noting her unease, Scully smiled slightly, "First autopsy?"
"No, second," Tracy frowned, "And I'm getting, better. I just can't seem to
completely get over the fact that we're cutting up people."
"That we are," Scully nodded, "And doing a damn fine job of it too."
Tracy laughed, relaxing slightly.
"And besides," Scully continued, "It's not like they're going to complain."
The detective started to respond, when the newly awoken zombie sat up on
the slab and made a strange gurgling noise. They stared at it for a second as its
lipless, decaying mouth opened and it turned hungry eyes on them.
"I don't know," Tracy pulled her gun and shot it between the eyes,
"Sometimes, they complain."
4) Tracy never – had a sister (VR5)
"Let me get this straight," Tracy's brow furrowed as she looked at the mass
of screens, wires and plastic boxes in front of her, "You put that visor on, call
somebody up and then you're –in- their head. Just like that?"
"Just like that." Sydney nodded, "And since you're my sister, you should be
able to do it too."
"Wow," Tracy's eyes widened as she cautiously took the visor, "Anyone?"
"Haven't found anyone it didn't work on," Sydney told her. She still couldn't
believe she'd managed to find her sister after all this time. And a cop no less! "So,
who do you want to call? Anyone who's head you've been dying to get into?"
"Hmm, well, I've always been curious," Tracy frowned, "He keeps so many
secrets, you see."
"Well?" Sydney nudged her arm towards the phone.
Tracy took a deep breath, dialed the phone and when it picked up, she put
on the visor.
"Knight."
And she was in.
Secrets.
She'd had no idea.
5) Tracy never – had a little sister (BTVS)
"But Tracyeeee!!" The fourteen year old whined her sister's name out for a
full 10 seconds.
"Dawn, I said no," Tracy pulled on her holster and then her coat, "It's too
dangerous to bring you with."
"But it's not official cop-type business," The teen tried, "You're not calling in or
anything. Should you even have your gun on now?"
"I'm not on the clock but it is cop stuff," Tracy looked on the counter for her
keys, they weren't there. She stifled a groan, ever since her little sister had moved
in with her, things were never where she left them, "And like I said, too dangerous."
"I can take care of myself," Dawn puffed up to her full height, "Screed's
teaching me all sorts of stuff."
"I wish you wouldn't hang out with him," Tracy mumbled, more to herself than
anything. She finally found her keys under the couch and headed towards the door,
"He can't be a good influence."
"So, can I come?"
"No!"
"If you don't let me come you know I'll just follow anyway," Dawn pressed.
"Fine," Tracy actually growled this time, "Get in the car."
6) Tracy never – bought a pet (Monty Python)
"Excuse me?" Tracy walked into 'Tim's Pet Emporium' with a towel wrapped
bundle under her arm.
"Yes?" A man shot up from behind the counter, straightening his tie, then
unclipping his tie and putting it back on.
"Yes, I bought this parrot yesterday and even though the clerk assured me it
was in perfect health," Tracy unrolled the towel and out plopped a parrot, "This
morning it died."
"This morning you say?" The man poked the bird.
"Yes, I got up this morning and the parrot was on the floor, dead."
"But he isn't dead!" The clerk gave a hearty laugh, "He's just resting!"
"Resting!" Tracy gaped a moment, then picked up the stiff bird and banged it
loudly against the counter, "He's definitely dead!"
"No, no," The clerk insisted, "Parrots are very deep sleepers."
"He's cold as ice!" Tracy went on, clearly annoyed now, "Look, can I just get
a refund or something?"
"I'm sorry ma'am, but this bird is fine and there's no reason to return him."
"He's cold, hasn't moved all day and didn't eat any of his seed," Tracy raised
an eyebrow, "What do you think that means, if he's not, in fact, dead?"
"Well, he's, er, very obviously," The man scratched his head, "That is to say,
since it isn't dead, the bird is, uh, undead."
"Undead?!" Tracy shrieked, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You
mean to say this bird is a vampire?!"
"Oh yes! Happens all the time to parrots!" The clerk nodded vigorously,
"Cold, not moving while the sun is up, not eating its nummy seeds. Oh yes, I should
have guessed it sooner. Your bird is a vampire."
"Look, I know vampires, " Tracy picked up the bird and banged it against the
counter again, "And this ain't no vampire."
The clerk frowned, "Are you sure?"
"I've met a lot of vampires," Tracy confessed.
"Oh," The clerk shrugged, "Let me see about getting you a refund then."
7) Tracy never – sang the blues (Highlander)
No one knew much about Joe's newest waitress, she was pretty stubborn
when it came about talking about her past. Some said she used to be a cop, but
Methos just didn't see it. Cops saw things in black and white, but Tracy was all
shades of gray. Grays and shades of blue. The Blues… Oh how that woman could
sing! Methos wasn't even sure she ever waited tables anymore, Joe always had her
up on the stage belting out some heartbreaking song or another.
She didn't talk about her past. He figured it wasn't too pretty, she had a
scare on her temple and she had a habit of rubbing her abdomen like she was in
pain sometimes. Her eyes had a haunted quality, like she'd seen too much all at
once.
She'd found out about immortals the week before, barely reacted. Just
smiled sadly and mumbled something under her breath about 'Super-natural
chums.' She'd said yes when he'd asked her out, he hoped he could take away
some of her blues.
8) Tracy never – had a really good snitch (Angel)
"You have to listen ta me!" The Irishman followed the blonde down the street,
shielding his eyes against the bright summer sun, "If ya don't listen those people
could die!"
Tracy stopped and turned slowly, eyes settling sharply on the man behind
her, "You want me to believe that you get visions, and that some 'powers' want –me-
to stop them from happening?"
"Yeah, pretty much," Doyle winced, what a day for a hangover. If he'd known
the beautiful Detective Vetter would be this hard to convince he wouldn't have had
that last round… or the 4 before that, "I mean, stranger things have 'appened ta ya.
'Aven't they?"
Tracy frowned, "That's not the point."
"Ah, but the powers don't see it tha' way," Doyle smiled sadly, "You're their
champion Tracy, no way to deny it."
Just then another skull splitting vision ripped through the Irishman, "Raven,
now… man with a gun!"
Tracy dragged him over to sit on the curb before standing fully up. He sat
there, breathing heavily and looking miserably at his shoes.
"Oh Hell," She muttered, "I'm a hero." And with that, she took off at a dead
run towards the club.
9) Tracy never – got a great job offer (Poltergeist: the Legacy)
As she chased after the vampire she knew someone was following her, possibly
several someones, but she couldn't worry about that now. The vamp she was after
had been on a killing spree, at least four people dead in the last week. Vachon was
unwilling to do anything, but dammit, someone had to!
She cornered him in the tunnel-like hallway that led from behind the 4th Street
Bus Station to the diner across the way, the diner was currently closed for
renovations and the door was gated. The vamp turned red eyes on her and snarled,
he started to try some sort of whammy, but Tracy easily shrugged that off. Giving
that up, he flew towards her. She was ready with her gun.
Two quick shots to the head barely slowed him, but the stake in the heart a
moment later did.
After the murderous beast crumbled to the Tracy turned to find the group of
people that had rushed after her. They were all finely dressed in tailored suits in
expensive fabrics and they all carried a variety of crossbows and short swords. The
apparent leader, an attractive man with graying hair, stepped forward and grinned at
her widely.
"You wouldn't happen to want a job?"
10) Tracy never – did a show (the Muppet Show)
When Tracy followed the address Nick had given her to the police talent show
she knew something was up. For one thing the guy who answered the door was
blue. The second thing that tipped her off, was that she was the only cop there.
Apparently the talent show was going to be more of the Tracy show. Nick was so
dead. Well, currently undead, but soon to be dead dead.
"Right this was Miss Vetter," A talking rat led her to a small dressing room, "Uh,
word of warning? Don't mess with the pig."
Minutes later a frantic looking frog rushed in, "Tracy! What do you do again?"
"Ah," Tracy looked at him wide eyed, "Was I supposed to have something
prepared?"
"Why?" Kermit blinked, "No one ever does."
"Well, I don't know," Tracy shrugged, "I guess I'm up for pretty much anything."
"Great!" Kermit smiled, "You're up, spinning plates to 'Flight of the Bumble Bee'
in 3 minutes!"
Tracy followed the frog to the stage, "Dead dead Nick," She promised, "dead
dead."
