As of the second episode he only confides in Police Woman Morris. He

I'm enjoying the show, and I agree with what of yours that I snipped.
I also understand that it's a piece of fiction with its own internal
logic needs.

But . . . but . . . but . . .

I sort of enjoyed 1973. If I was thrown back there (as an adult this
time) from a stressful job as a NYC detective, the first thing I'd do
is NOT continue to work in a stinky old 125th precinct house. I'd get
a nice hog and head for California, betting on sports and elections
and shorting stocks to pay my way, and look up Woz and Steve Jobs (for
a chat), then buy a sweet piece of Malibu real estate for the down
times, then head out on the concert trail following Led Zepp . . . and
so on.

Our Hero lacks imagination.
