Warning: Spoilers
My New Partner begins with police sirens screaming in he background and two people on the run through the cobblestone streets of Marseilles. When one turns to the other and says 'No need both of us getting caught. Let me turn you in and I'll save your share of the money for you until you get out ' it is surprisingly revealed to us that both of them are in fact themselves detectives. The other guy mildly protests by answering 'Why me?' The first one responds 'Because I thought of it'. The next scene fast forwards to the police station where detective number one is happily ensconced in his office, his former partner is now in jail and he is just waiting for his new partner to be assigned to him. To his disdain, he is assigned a 100% by the book, straight laced, fresh out of the police academy graduate, who will undoubdedly cramp his free flowing style. A series of hilarious adventures ensues as each one learns to appreciate the other's qualities.
