Inspector Murphy is the “face man” of the health department and, as a result, he’s keenly aware of his role in the public eye.

In the fashion-starved, khakis-and-knit-tie arena of public health, Murphy is a beacon of taste and grooming. As the city’s only well-coifed health inspector, Murphy believes his preternatural good looks represent his personal contribution to women’s health.

On the job, Murphy’s workdays are filled with tasks any meter maid would find mundane. But, whether filling out violation citations, collecting smoke samples, or measuring the temperature of cooked meats, Murphy’s convinced his sense of style can turn the meanest task into a glamorous spectacle.

Before entering any establishment, Murphy always manages to locate a reflective surface.
