Detective Alexandra Eames is a fictional character on the TV crime drama '''', portrayed by Kathryn Erbe . Eames is a police detective with Manhattan 's Major Case Squad. She joined the NYPD to follow in the footsteps of her father, Johnny Eames, also a cop. She is partnered with Det. Robert Goren . Her pragmatic, analytical investigative style serves as a balance against Goren's often eccentric investigation and Interrogation methods. She and Goren did not see eye-to-eye at first; puzzled by his interrogation methods, she asked her superior officer for a new partner. She soon learned to appreciate his investigative skill, however, and withdrew the request. Even though they sometimes disagree as to the best way to solve cases, Eames and Goren have a solid partnership in which Eames functions almost like an older sister. In 2003 , Eames volunteered to serve as a Surrogate Mother for her sister's baby. Det. G. Lynn Bishop was brought in as Goren's partner while Eames was on Maternity Leave . While her Pregnancy was, on the whole, a positive experience, Eames sometimes feels pangs of regret and emptiness for having given the child up. During an investigation of Goren's archnemesis, Nicole Wallace , the career criminal was able to detect Eames' vulnerability on the subject and mocked her for having " Eggs ripe and ready for hire" in an attempt to throw off her concentration. Regardless of whatever regrets she has from the experience, however, she is consoled by a very close relationship with the child she carried, stating that she sees her nephew three times a week. In 2005 , she and Goren included Det. Mike Logan in a case they were investigating. This paved the way for Logan to join Major Case a few months later. TRIVIA Nicole Wallace .]]
