Hes a hotshot lieutenant, advancing much farther than his former partner.
He responds, Boy, thatd be great.
They then head to their motel to presumably drink and have sex all night.

Things arent as hot and heavy for Wayne in 2015.
Thats nice, but Wayne still wants names and background on all their employees.
Returning to 1990, Roland confesses that he doesnt see Wayne anymore, even though hes not sure why.
Once we stopped working together, we just stopped, he says.
Meanwhile, Wayne hasnt stopped looking for missing kids as his daughter Rebecca disappears during a trip to Walmart.
Thankfully, she resurfaces relatively quickly, but hes still pissed.
The flirting works and she learns that Julies fingerprints were on the shelves and not behind the counter.
Upon returning home, she doesnt get a thank you from Wayne, whos being quite the jerk.
And shes the one who should be mad considering he didnt even end up buying anything at Walmart!
He explains his tracking skills and asks her out to dinner.
Nearby he finds hair and blood on sharp rocks, meaning this is where Will was killed.
He then grabs Roland and they keep walking to a big house.
The owner says he was already interviewed but its not clear by whom.
But his help ends there when he refuses to let his land be searched without a warrant.
Eliza, the director, is questioning the investigation, insisting that not everyone was interviewed.
She brings up a suspicious brown sedan, which sounds familiar to Wayne.
She also brings up a black man with a scar who was not mentioned in the official reports.
While Teddy wants to stop, Wayne wants to know what is going on.
Amelia then appears, and hes not happy to see her.
How much do I have to lose?
he asks, to which she responds, Everything, same as everybody else.
Hes worried about what they will find, what he left in the woods.
Finish it, she declares, before disappearing.
In 1980, the community is starting to take the investigation into their own hands.
Despite his denial, they start beating on him as he fights back.
After the brutal beatdown, he rushes homes and grabs a big bag.
Hopefully not a body bag.
But the kids fingerprints were on them, joined by a mysterious third set.
Our time with the Purcells continues in 1990 when Roland goes to visit Tom at a new house.
While Lucy died two years earlier in Las Vegas, Tom looks good.
Hes sober now thanks to Roland.
And hes already been approached by the interviewers and knows about the fingerprints.
Roland and Tom then share a prayer together.
The 1990 reunions for Roland dont end there.
Roland responds, Well, I think unlike others, I lacked a big fing mouth.
Hell, with affirmative action, you could have been my boss by now.
The case is being reopened and theres a spot on the task force for Wayne.
You feel like maybe being a detective again?
Because, that, you were okay at.
THE BOYS ARE BACK!
This weeks Truest Detective:1980 Wayne was on fire this week, no matter what 2015 Eliza says!
