Inspector Gomez

An experienced police officer, he uses the authority of his rank to dodge responsibility but is a capable investigator when he stops being lazy and actually tries. Lydia thinks he's incompetent, calling him an "idle, hair-brained ignoramus whose only saving grace is that he's eating himself into an early grave". Indeed, the Inspector enjoys sweet snacks and has a large belly with high blood pressure and other related issues, for which the hospital seems to be treating him.

He likes to follow the approved procedures - obsessed with rules over results - even if that is not necessarily the appropriate course of action. When Lydia regards all men as equally useless, he tries to 'mansplain' prejudice to her. She then responds with a speech about women's ongoing struggles, which he ignores.
