Winnie is the main dispatcher that works with SRU teams from Season 2 on, and has been vital in solving pieces of the puzzles in some of the team's toughest calls. In "Eyes In", Spike tries asking Winnie out, which she initially turns down, admitting that she doesn't date cops because she needs balance in her life, not as a fake rule to let guys down easy. She implies that if it weren't an unbreakable rule, she'd break it for him saying "the perfect guy just came along." In the series finale, "Keep the Peace", Winnie and Spike officially become a couple.
