Imassuredofthis - "I'm Assured Of This..."

Harlem is a very different place. We’re very convincing in our uniforms. I look like a real cop. You really have to have an eye to know that the badge on my shoulder is not in fact NYPD. When we shot the pilot, I decided to explore the neighborhood, because I thought, “This is where we’ll be. I want to know what it’s like to be around here,” but I wasn’t thinking that I looked like I was in an NYPD uniform. So I got different attention than what I would normally get while just walking down the street in my normal clothes. I had people thinking that I was really a cop. I had people who asked me for directions. I had people give me dirty looks. I had things thrown at me from the top of buildings. It was a really interesting thing that I hadn’t thought about. It was a good way to put myself in my character’s shoes, but maybe not the smartest thing to do.
