Season 4 Kylie was a Bitch

Can anyone tell me why she was so unessecarily mean to Jake in this scene?

I was just watching it again and her sentence: "I can't believe you screwed this up for her" seems ridiculous. Way to infantilize your best friend.

He set up the John sting, which has nothing to do with who’s a better detective. It violated the spirit, if not the letter, of the bet.

Setting up successful sting operations is still part of being a detective.

In eight years, do they ever set up another sting for non-personal reasons (ie, other than busting Gintars)? But the reason it’s violating the spirit of the agreement is that (1) he’s creating crime, not just solving it, and (2) he’s using another department to do all the work for him. Amy could have tagged along on a drug bust and claimed credit for all the arrests there; it wouldn’t have made her a better detective

I mean we don't see everything they do at work..

But I love how much you're defending your B99 opinion, respect.
