Cops and Perps (Not interpreted)

I am s police detective walking thru a very seedy neighborhood at night. I as following the clues to solve a crime. Nancy is with me but our rolls keep getting reversed. At one point she stops to puke. Her behavior is obviously suspect. Not necessarily in the murder, just in s good good guy bad guy way. She may be puking in a grave yard. I may be the murder victim.

In another scene, after waking and sleeping, we are in a group with many cops sitting outside on picnic benches. we are discussing how valid and realistic our detective methods are. Something unique to Michigan. (Not sure on the name...an "M" word.

Are cops and perps that difference?

Notes: Glad I remembered at least part of the dream. No dreams remembered yesterday.
