After running into each other at the police station in the series premiere, the pair attended their college reunion together, hinting at more romance for the duo as the season continues. Picking up on this, Eric’s wife Mallory (Gabrielle Byndloss) asks, “how long into this meal do we have to go until we’re allowed to ask about that girl we saw you leaving the reunion with?”

“Never,” Joe responds, short and sweet. But his Uncle Frank (David Warshofsky) isn’t having that as the man chimes in, saying, “her name’s Amy.”
