"Jack while you're out interviewing that witness could you nip to the shop and get a loaf of break and a dozen tangerines?" She asked as Jack and Brian left.
"Should I ask?" Gerry asked.
"I've been craving tangerine sandwiches for the past few days."
"Honey you know cravings are often the first sign of pregnancy don't you? You aren't having our baby are you?"
"No. I was suspicious of that but I did a test and it was negative."
"Thank God. Not that it wouldn't be great to have a baby with you but it is not the right time."
"Gerry I completely agree, I love you but I do not want a baby, I don't have the time for one."
"I love you too, so what's with the cravings then?"
"I don't know, I'm a police officer not a nutritionist or a biologist."
"So tangerine sandwiches then?"
"Yeah, it's all that's in my cupboards just now."
"So I take it I need to get some in if this is going to continue."
"Yes please. Are you coming over tonight?"
"If you want. Should I even ask what's for dinner?"
"No, I have some food in for you."
"Woah, Sandra Pullman went shopping."
"It does happen occasionally."
"Back. Tangerines and bread for madam." Jack said as he walked back in dumping a shopping bag on to Sandra's desk.
"Thanks. I'll be back in 10, I'm just nipping home." Sandra said grabbing the bag before walking out.
"I'll be back in 10 too; I want to know what she's up to." Gerry said as he got up to.
"She won't thank you for it." Jack called as he left.
"Why have you come?" Sandra asked as his car pulled up behind hers outside of her home.
"To see what you're up to."
"Making my sandwiches so they boys can't comment, I've had all the pregnancy stuff from you I don't need it from them too."
"Sit back and let the master do it and you go do another pregnancy test, a lot of people can get fake negatives."
"Fine, but I'll tell you what the result of that will be now."
"There we go, 4 tangerine sandwiches all wrapped up and ready to go. Test?"
"God, you're more impatient than me and that's saying something. You have to wait 2 minutes."
"Now?"
"There you go. Negative, as I said."
"Well then you are a law on to your own Sandra Pullman."
