I think it's obvious this movie will follow the classic buddy cop formula plot-wise: New cop who is an outcast is given the opportunity to prove themselves, ends up in a partnership with someone they don't get along with but eventually end up befriending anyway, they work on the case but then they mess up and end up getting fired and nobody wants to believe them when they try to warn everyone about the criminal danger. Then come the depressing scenes with the main character has given up, but their partner encourages them to keep going, and then they find more clues to solve the case, defeat the bad guys, become the city's heroes and are rehired by the police.

So the hug scene must be the classic reconciliation/encouragement scene after they messed up and failed to beat the deadline. They are probably in a park or in The Burrows. If it's the latter, it would be funny if Judy hears bunnies freaking out about a fox coming to their town and Judy runs right away if it is who she thinks it is.
