So when Hank called Nick in the first part of S5E2 Nick wasn't banned so he didn't disobey Renard. In S5E2 after Renard seen him then he told him to not to return to the station until called. Does this help clear it up.
Actually, I had to read the script. Here's the conversation:
Quote:Chavez: Yeah, well, I'm sorry to hear that, but his behavior in my office was unbalanced and threatening. We almost had to place him under arrest. I'd like to leave this in your hands, but if this happens again, it'll be out of my hands, and he will find himself in jail.
Renard: I'll make sure it doesn't happen again.
Renard to Nick: I need to see you in my office.
Nick: Yeah, I need to talk to you too.
Renard: What are you doing?
Nick: What are you talking about?
Renard: You confronted Special Agent Chavez in her own office, with witnesses? What the hell were you thinking?
Nick: Captain, you don't understand
Renard: Maybe I do, maybe I don't, but you might get yourself arrested on federal charges if you don't stop what you're doing.
Nick: Chavez is part of a secret government organization.
Renard: What organization, Nick?
Nick: I don't know. But that's what I'm trying to figure out. Last night, they took Juliette's body. They took Trubel
Renard: Stop. I've been told. We're gonna look into it.
Nick: You don't believe me?
Renard: A lot has happened, and you have to take some time.
Nick: No, I don't need time
Renard: This is not a suggestion.
Nick: Are you suspending me?
Renard: No, I am telling you to take some time. Now, if you don't, then I will suspend you.
Nick: Captain, you don't understand what Chavez
Renard: Enough. You go near her again, and you'll be facing a lot more than a suspension.
Later Nick tells Hank: I've been ordered to take some time off.
Nick said he was ordered to take time off. Correct me if I'm wrong, but if an subordinate refuses to follow an order, isn't disciplinary action in order? Didn't Renard state that a suspension was in line if Nick didn't take time off? That is disciplinary action. Just my opinion here, but taking time off doesn't mean Nick can still come into the office whenever and work cases. It means he's been ordered to stay away from the job.
I also thought I would quote this so called terrible warning that Nick gave the marshals. I couldn't tell which marshal answered which question so I just called them 'marshals'
Quote:Nick: I gotta warn them.
Hank: How you gonna do that? Nick!
Nick: Hey, you guys got a minute? I'm Detective Burkhardt.
Marshals: What?
Nick: You have to be careful with this guy.
Marshals: I think we can handle him.
Nick: No, you don't understand. He's not what he seems.
Marshals: We know all about him.
Nick: No, you don't. This guy, he's dangerous.
Marshals: He's an ink man. What's he gonna do, forge us to death?
Nick: You don't know what this guy's capable of.
Marshals:You know, Detective, just 'cause we got babysitting duty doesn't give you the right to bust our balls.
Nick: I'm not bustin' your balls.
Marshals: You a badass? [scoffs] Let's go, man.
Okay, so let's see. First statement:
"You have to be careful with this guy."
Their prisoner was restrained, he was in the back of the car, the two marshals were armed. I'd say that's being careful with the guy.
Second statement:
"No, you don't understand. He's not what he seems."
And this is clear in what way? If he's not what he seems, what is he? Nick never tells the marshals so they believe they have appropriately prepared to transport their prisoner. They would be correct.
Third statement:
"No, you don't. This guy, he's dangerous."
Well, yeah, okay.
So in summary, Nick told the marshals they had to be careful with the guy, he's not what he seems, and he is dangerous.
The marshals would have already known the redundant things Nick told them from their training and experience. The took appropriate precautions because a) law enforcement has to be careful with prisoners, b) prisoners aren't always what they seem, and c) prisoners are dangerous. Those are the yardsticks of transporting prisoners, not some new and vital information from Nick that would stop these guys in their tracks and force them to listen. I stand by my original statement. Nick's warning was pathetic.
Quote:"Pathetic?" Nick did everything besides tell the Marshals outright the guy was a flesh-eating monster!
You saw the three statements Nick made to the marshals. If you want to believe he did everything he could but tell the men Wemlinger was a flesh eating monster, knock yourself out.
Now we can all agree to disagree.
The best way to frustrate a cyberbully is to ignore him.
