Harper walked into the SSR LA office for another day of work when she saw her friend Peggy Carter.
"Peggy!" she yelled to get her friends attention, "What are you doing in LA? I haven't seen you since the war."
Peggy smiled as she walked forward and embraced Harper, "I'm very good. I have been called in to help with a case here."
"That's right," Harper replied with a warm smile, "You worked with Daniel in New York. Well, let's get to business."
Peggy wasn't sure how she felt about hearing Harper using Daniel's name with such familiarity but she shook it off as she followed her into the office and straight to the Chief's office.
"Daniel," Harper announced as she reached the door, "Your help has arrived in the form of one of my very best friends from way back when," she introduced as Daniel watched Peggy walk into his office behind Harper.
He swallowed as he realized that his current girlfriend knew his ex and he had had no idea until this morning and he was hoping that Harper would act in a professional manner for this moment but he knew that was too much to ask for.
"Chief Sousa, how have you been?" Peggy said with a smile as she looked at the man who had left without a word and raced away to LA.
Daniel smiled as he stood, grabbing his crutch, "I'm well Carter. Would you like to get straight to business on this case?"
Peggy nodded, "Yes, of course. You can brief me on all the details so far. Harper, are you on the case as well?" she asked, wondering if Daniel kept any of their relationship separate.
Harper shook her head, "I am specifically a field agent and so far we haven't needed me for muscle. I'm a lot like that Dottie Underwood you caught back in New York, except not a criminal. So, take good care of my man and I'll see you two when you come back," she replied as she walked up to Daniel and placed a kiss on his cheek before leaving him to hug Peggy once more.
Peggy couldn't fathom her emotions as she followed Daniel. On one hand, she was furious but she also loved Harper and wanted to see her happy. She sighed deeply as they left the talent agency cover for the agency office.
Once Peggy and Daniel left, Harper sat down at her desk and started to look over the files regarding the death of Dr. Jane Scott. She was pretty sure it wasn't the Lady of the Lake killer as the police presumed but a cover of something much worse that had gone wrong. And she knew Daniel wouldn't like her getting involved in the case.
