 Fancy suspected that transferring Sipowicz would result in his replacement being another bigot (as a message from Fancy's white bosses) whom he did not want to chance on being able to be as good a detective as Sipowicz.In assessing his detectives for incoming squad commander Tony Rodriguez, Fancy bluntly stated that if a member of his family was killed, he would want Andy to be the lead investigator on the case.In Season 4, Fancy and his wife were stopped at a traffic light and treated in a rough and possibly racist manner by two uniform cops in Bayside, Queens (The officers held them at gunpoint over a broken taillight until Fancy pulled out his badge).
