Catherine and Grissom arrived at the scene of the case Brass had just called in. Stepping out of the Tahoe Cath pulled her purse over her shoulder from the passenger seat.
"What's up Brass?" Grissom said as he walked over to Brass.
"Vic's name is Suzanne Waters, 31 and a local. We IDed her from her license." Brass said to the CSI's as the walked over to the body lying on the edge of a sidewalk on suburb street. Cath pulled out the camera and started snapping pictures of the victim.
"Hit and run?" Cath questioned looking up at the men. Grissom shrugged as he began to process.
About an hour later the corners had taken the body and gone. Cath and Grissom were rapping up at the scene.
"Hey Griss, I'm gonna take a quick brake and grab a water from the truck." Cath said walking toward the Tahoe. Grissom nodded as she turned her back. He finished processing and walked over to the car.
"Cath? You ready to go?" He asked, "Do you smell cigarettes?" He turned the corner and saw Cath tuck carton of Virginia Slims in her purse.
"No, let's just get out of here." She said opening her door and climbing in. The ride back to the lab was silent.
Back at the lab Catherine took the evidence and told Grissom to go see Doc Robbins for the autopsy. Catherine walked in to the lab and dropped her DNA evidence in front of Greg.
"Process this. I want my stuff to be priority. Got that?" she hissed in Greg's face. Greg's tried to stifle a laugh. "What? Did a stutter?" She barked and turned to walk away.
"What's shoved up your ass?" he cracked
"You know what? I'm in a bad mood. I.I don't even have time to deal with this!" she screamed and stormed out.
Grissom was in the brake room fixing himself a cup coffee.
"Hey Griss." Nick said cheerfully as he walked into the lounge. Grissom said nothing. "Grissom? Helloo?" Nick said waving his hands over his head.
"What.. oh hi Nick." Grissom said drifting back into his own world as he sat down and popped a couple of pills he took for migraines.
"Headache?" Nick asked sitting down next to Grissom.
"Yeah, get 'em when I'm stressed."
"What's wrong? Wanna talk about it?"
"I just. I feel like I'm losing her."
"Care to elaborate?"
"Catherine. over the past few months. it's like. I'm drifting father away. Like, I don't know her. Like. she doesn't want to know me."
"Talk to her. Catch up. If I know anything about Cath I know she'll come back if you approach her."
"Thanks Nicky." Grissom said getting up and walking out of the room. Nick smiled and shook his head.
Grissom was looking all over for Catherine.
"Hey Warrick.have you seen Cath?"
"I think she stepped outside." He said as he walked in to ballistics.
Grissom walked down the hall and stepped out to look for Catherine. He looked to his left and saw Catherine taking a long puff on a cigarette.
"When did you start smoking again?" he asked grabbing the carton from her clutched hand.
"I. I picked it back up a few months ago. No big deal. Just a couple here and there." She said unable to keep eye contact.
"I thought you quit for good?" he said a little more sternly, "I thought you were done with this crap. Remember, alcohol, tobacco, and drug free?"
"I've had a tough year Grissom! I don't think you fully realize what I've gone through."
"I don't fully realize? How can you say that?"
"Well, maybe if you stopped to talk to me or even tried to understand! But no you're to busy worrying about yourself to even speak to any one else!"
"Excuse me?" Grissom asked appalled at her words.
"Ugh. screw this. I'm outta here." she said dropping her smoke to the ground and stormed inside
"Cath!" hey yelled as he chased after her, "don't walk away from me!" he beckoned as he followed her down the hallway.
"Oh, don't walk away from you? Well you walked out of my life so I'm walkin' outta yours." She screamed so loud that people were poking their heads out to watch.
"When did I walk out of your life?"
"The minute you cut me off! You won't even apologize for everything I've gone trough this year! I don't know grasp the concept that Eddie is DEAD! That means my daughter has no father! She is missing a huge part of her life. I place I can't fill and never will be able to help her." She screamed between sobs, "and another part of that is I no longer receive child support. I may even need two jobs to support my daughter and me! That's what I think you don't understand Gil Grissom. So, consider this my 2 weeks notice. I quit!" She turned and walked down the hall and out the door.
