and Medavoy's existing marriage made the relationship difficult. After the pressure became too much for Abandando to cope with, she ended things with Greg, who tried unsuccessfully to return to his marriage. He was later attracted to coworker Abby Sullivan, who revealed that she was a lesbian, and that her partner Kathy and she were interested in having him father their child through artificial insemination. Greg agreed; while Abby was pregnant, Kathy was killed. Abby gave birth at the same time that Det. James Martinez and his wife had their first child, and Greg was present when Abby's baby was born. In Season 7, Medavoy's partner James Martinez was promoted, and Greg was then partnered with Baldwin Jones, a young detective who had worked in the Bias Crimes unit. Though they were polar opposites in appearance and demeanor, the two soon grew a friendship that was tested by Greg's neuroses and the younger Baldwin's irritation over them, but Baldwin's calm demeanor and occasional bemusement enabled him to cope. Medavoy also overcame a witch hunt by Lt. Bale, who turned him in to Internal Affairs and tried to wreck his career after learning he was employed part-time at a bar, though it was against regulations for off-duty police officers to work at establishments that serve alcohol. After a hearing in which he was ordered to forfeit five days' pay, Medavoy returned to work and upbraided Bale for his autocratic ways, calling him a bully and a coward for not handling the matter face to face. Medavoy carried himself with a noticeable increase in confidence afterwards. In the final few episodes, Medavoy retired in order to join the real estate business; the interpersonal skills he had developed as a detective enabled him to close a sale for his new girlfriend Bridgid, whom he had met on a fraud case, and she invited him to come to work with her. At his retirement party, Greg expressed his love for his career and coworkers, and closed with the traditional NYPD toast "to the guy that invented this job". In the final episode of the series, Medavoy stopped by the 15th Precinct during a sales call while his former colleagues came and went amid demands of their investigations. This led Medavoy to observe out loud to himself, "Boy, when you're gone, you're gone". References Sources Internet Books Fictional New York City Police Department detectives NYPD
