In my defense, I didn't see that episode--and now that I've had a chance to use Google, I see that the idea has already been fleshed out, although others think that Cuddy most corresponds to Lestrade.

Except Lestrade would never dare barge in on Holmes and yell at him for not being on patrol. :)

RSL actually calls them 'ducklings.' Apparently, he's in the LJ-fandom know. :))

I'm not fond of the Holmes parallel, although it was clearly intended this way. I never liked Holmes. He's an emo wanker. If he'd stayed a dorky, Aspie-like chemistry grad student I'd have liked him a hell of a lot more, but Doyle turned him into this proto-James-Bond figure that's just so *trite*...
