Officer Thurmon Bell calls in a fake 911 report so that his ex-girlfriend (also a police officer) will show up, and he can win her back. Armed with flowers and a romantic song, he awaits her arrival eagerly. However, two male officers show up instead, and his plan soon falls to pieces; Thurmon must deal with the consequences of his love.

Unlike their heroic counterparts on the force, desk-bound NYPD detectives Gamble and Hoitz garner no headlines as they work day to day. When a seemingly minor case turns out to be a big deal, the two cops get the opportunity to finally prove to their comrades that they have the right stuff.
