Sometimes a crime fighting duo is an autistic highly intelligent single mom and a grumpy textbook OCD detective.

Honestly, I am cannot wait for when High Potential does a "My partner got kidnapped!" episode, because it is going to be an absolutely insane time.

If Morgan is Kidnapped:

Level-headed Karadec losing every last bit of calm and control as he becomes desperate to find her.

Morgan being called Karadec's "weakness"/Karadec being told caring for Morgan makes him "vulnerable".

Karadec immediately developing the world's largest guilt complex bc protecting Morgan is HIS responsibility. Bonus if the kidnapper is someone from Karadec's past seeking revenge, who purposefully targeted Morgan to hurt him.

If Karadec is Kidnapped:

Oh, you thought Morgan was chaotic BEFORE? Now she's essentially a hurricane compressed into a laser, pointed at one thing only - getting Karadec back. She is going to hit you harder than anything you ever thought possible (figuratively and literally).

Soto sending Morgan home (with police protection) bc she doesn't want Morgan to get kidnapped too. so Morgan privately investigates Karadec's disappearance, without the police knowing.

Morgan figuring out where Karadec is, arriving first on the scene, and refusing to wait for back-up before running in to try and save Karadec.

Bonus Tropes for Either Scenario:

Being used as bait to lure in the other. And the other knowing they're walking into a trap but doing it anyway.

Kidnapper massively underestimating Morgan, whether she's the hostage or the rescuer. The kidnapper thinks she's just Karadec's pretty partner that occasionally makes observations or spouts facts, rather than seeing the fully intelligent, cunning, and tough as nails person she is.

The person kidnapped being certain their partner will find them.

Soto's blood pressure spiking through the roof.

“Why does everyone feel like they have the right to call me stupid?”

Honestly that’s such a real line. Smart women are constantly belittled for their intelligence, then when they exhibit the personality traits associated with a high IQ, they’re called stupid, usually by men who feel threatened and want to go after what they know is simultaneously one of the biggest thing they have confidence in and the biggest thing they’re shamed for.

Karadec + Chloe in 1x01

That is my partner you're talking to. Choose your words carefully. That sounds like a warning, detective.

“You believe this? The cleaning lady's rearranging my boards.” “You see a cleaning lady. I see more.”

I really love how Daniel Sunjata plays Karadec, portraying him as empathetic and kind, but in a quiet, serious way. He believes in what he’s doing, but the job has worn him down.

It makes his dynamic with Morgan really appealing, bc you get the sense she’s the first person to make him smile in a very long time. (And she’s not even really trying! She’s just joking like she always does. There’s just something in Morgan that reaches Karadec in a way no one else can.)

I feel like their partnership is going to grow in this way, and it’ll be super interesting to watch. Especially how they have a dangerous job, and part of Karadec’s role is to protect his consultant, bc she doesn’t have police training. A “It’s my job to protect you” combined with “If I lose you, I’ll lose the light you’ve brought into my world” mindset is one of my fav ship dynamics.
