Jackie is injured in the line of duty, upsetting her boyfriend Gary (Brian Kerwin in, yes, his last appearance).  He wants her to quit being a cop, but she doesn't want to do that just to please him.  So the title is ambiguous.  Is Gary indeed Mr. Right and Jackie refuses to accept that?  Or is his refusal to accept her as she is proof that he's not Mr. Right?  Meanwhile there's a funny subplot about the girls discovering dismembered dolls in their brother's room, another example of the weirding of D.J. this season, when he was fairly normal the first two seasons.

Louisa Abernathy would play a Nurse on the show again four years later.  No, I don't know why this episode aired a day earlier than usual that week.
