犯罪動機

基本背景：一位單親媽媽，和兒子Manny在充滿勞工的地區租房子。她開老式汽車Oldsmobile Hurst，沒有CD音響沒有藍芽傳輸。她按自己的方式過活，是個好嗎媽媽和好警探。
公事方面：她做事像是一輛卡車，口直心快，一根腸子通到底，想到什麼說什麼，不管聽者是誰。根據過往經驗，她不聽從上級指示的調查方向，憑自身直覺辦案。她對弱者常心軟，比起自己的事情，她願意花更多時間照顧和幫他們出聲。一開始嫌疑犯總是會以為自己能比Angie聰明，可以騙過她。
特殊技能：當有人唬爛撒謊時，她的直覺第六感可以清楚知道。當嫌犯說謊時，她可以知道察覺有什麼不對勁。她所經歷的人生讓她強悍，能屈能伸，鍥而不捨，不輕言放棄。她從錯誤中和人際關係與職場上吸取教訓，從中學習。雖然看似強悍，但她剛柔並濟，對想要有所隱瞞的犯人來說，絕對是天敵。

BACKGROUND:
• A single mom, Angie lives with her teenage son, Manny, in a rented house in a working class neighbourhood.
• She drives a “classic” Oldsmobile Hurst, no CD player, no Bluetooth.
• Angie lives her life on her terms. She’s a good mom and a great homicide detective.

EMPLOYEE PROFILE:
• Angie barrels through investigations like a semi-truck, impulsively saying whatever comes to her mind to whomever she’s speaking to.
• Experience has taught her to ignore the party line and pay attention to that nagging feeling in her gut instead.
• She’s always had a soft spot for the underdog, and spends more time caring and fighting for others than she does for herself.
• Taking her at face value, suspects often make the mistake of believing they’re smarter than her and that they can outwit her.

AREAS OF EXPERTISE:
• A sixth sense when it comes to bullshit. She knows when a perp is lying, and she can smell when something’s not right.
• The hard knocks of her life have made her tough, resilient, and determined not to give up.
• She learns from every mistake, every bad relationship, and every job.
• While Angie may be a force of nature, she’s also caring, a dangerous combination for a criminal desperately trying to hide the truth of their crime.

特殊技能：Oscar聰明，心思縝密，做事有系統邏輯。當和Angie一起出任務調查兇殺案時，他們兩人是完美互補，相對於Angie是陽，Oscar是陰，陰陽調和，天下無敵。就像大部分優秀的團隊，一加一大於二，完美搭檔，無往不利。

BACKGROUND:
• Angie’s partner Oscar comes from money and privilege. His father is a wealthy industrialist. His mother is a neurosurgeon.

公事方面：他認為Angie是個好警察，但也覺得她有時就像匹脫韁野馬，無法操控駕馭。她或許現在運勢很強，但有天總是會用完的。Boyd讓Angie和Oscar配對搭檔，他知道他們個別的特質和專長可以相互搭配。

• Boyd is responsible for partnering Angie up with Vega. He knows that their respective skillsets complement each other.

 AREAS OF EXPERTISE:
• Boyd is well aware of the dangers of fieldwork, and knows that rules and proper procedure are there for a reason.

基本背景：Angie的兒子，是少數她認為這輩子做對的事情之一。對Manny來說，當警察的兒子其實不是件輕鬆的事。有好多派對活動不會請他參加同樂，他的朋友來家裡玩也會覺得不自在。當他對自己的生父感到好奇時，Angie總是說反正不是什麼光彩事，很快就轉換了話題。
個人檔案：總之，Manny就是一般你知道的17歲男生，充滿賀爾蒙、不安全感、歡樂、害怕，如同風暴肆虐。

BACKGROUND:
• Angie’s son, Manny, is one of the few things in her life she feels she did right.
• As far as Manny’s concerned, being the son of a cop is not the easiest gig in the world. There are a lot of parties he doesn’t get invited to, and his friends get really weird when they come over to the house.
• Whenever Manny becomes curious about who his father is, Angie tells him it’s not a pretty story, and quickly changes the subject.

PERSONALITY PROFILE:
• In short, Manny’s your average seventeen-year-old boy, a human cyclone of hormones, insecurities, joy, fear.
