The drama continues for Andy and Duncan as his trial for potential dismissal draws near on Rookie Blue.
Duncan Gets Suspended After Letting Andy Down
Andy has to testify against Duncan in the seventh episode of the fifth season called Deal with the Devil, after he failed to show up at a crime scene. The intense scene featured a child who was being held captive by an infamous gang member.
Duncan got caught in a lie and said he did not show up because his radio died, when he was actually just down the street. It's no secret that Andy has her doubts about Duncan's ability to be an effective rookie, but during his hearing, he turns the tables on Andy and throws her and Oliver for a loop.
