** Reyes suggests to Doggett that they should get pets, which then segues into Doggett labeling himself as a cat person because [[SelfDeprecation he thinks any other pet would be too high maintenance for him]] while Reyes lists off his good qualities as proof why he would be a dog person ([[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre "I can't see anyone being disappointed in you, John."]]), along with some HeldGaze thrown in for some good measure. Unfortunately, Doggett responds by calling it a day, much to Reyes's chagrin.
