Jo walks out of the elevator.

'Hey Mac, what's up?' She asks Mac, who she passes on her way to her office.

'We got a murder.'

'What do you mean? I didn't got a peep on my phone, so I don't know about anything.'

'That's because it only has been discovered half an hour ago. It was laying in my office.'

'You mean, in this building? Who found it?'

'Our new crime scene investigator. Her name is Alexis Tomlinson.'

'I know, I hired her.'

'There she is. Maybe you can speak with her.'

'Won't she talk?'

'Didn't ask yet, but I thought you're better with it.'

'Yeah right, you weren't in the mood, I guess.'

'Just question her!' Mac says, while grinning.

Jo nods and walks towards the girl.

Jo smiles, thinking about the interview she had with her. From the moment she walked in, Jo knew she wanted her. She's a powerful, precisely young woman who isn't scared to say what she thinks. Jo liked her. As Jo looks at her, she doesn't see a scared face, but a calm, maybe even bored look, if she didn't care finding a dead body in an almost empty building. The girl looks good, wearing a pink top and some jewelry, a jeans and some really high pumps. Her hear is dark and curly, her make-up perfectly done. As she sees Jo approaches her, she stands up and walks towards Jo.

'Hi, Jo right?'

'Yes, hello Alexis. Nice start of your first day. Starting to look a bit like me.'

'What do you mean?'

'When I first got here, a young woman was laying death on the bridge over there.'

'Well, let's hope they don't make it a usual thing.'

Jo smiles about the joke the girl made, and when Alexis sees she laughs, she also smiles.

'You'll do great here, I think. But now tell me, what did you actually see, finding the body?'

'I came in, because I wanted to introduce myself to my new boss, when I saw a man sitting in a chair in front of the desk, his head pointed to the window. So I touched his shoulder, because I wanted to ask him if he knew where I could find detective Taylor. When he didn't react, I looked at him, and saw he was dead.'

'Thank you.' Jo writes down what Alexis had said. After that, she wants to walk away.

'Wait!' Alexis yells. Jo turns around, a bit startled.

'I just wanted to ask, can I help? I mean, I'm a part of the team now, so…'

'Of course you can! I just assumed you wanted the rest of the day of because you founded the body and all.'

'I'm not that kind of girl. I'm a cop, it's my job. So I'm not really scared anymore of a dead body.'

'Well than, the kits are over there.'

'Thank you, really.'

'Don't bother. Like you said, it's just my job.'

Alexis and Jo walk away, both in a different direction. When Jo reaches Mac, he immediately asks what Alexis had said.

'Be cool, she doesn't know anything, not more than we do. She's a nice girl, just give her a change. We're not all as good as you are.'

'I know, Jo. I'm not saying she has to be perfect, I just want her to be good.'

'You have to work with her, at least in this case.'

'Talking about the case, shall we start investigating?'

'You know what, I think that's a great idea. I'll join Danny, Hawkes, Lindsay and Alexis at the crime scene, then you can help Don interrogating the witnesses.'

'I thought I could be the boss today.'

Jo smiles a bit defiant. Mac shakes his head when he looks her walking to his office, what's the new crime scene. He frowns, thinking why the body was laying in his office. He didn't know the victim. He hopes further investigation shows more information. He follows Jo's advice, or actually, her command, and joins Don.

At the crime scene, Lindsay finds a sharp piece of glass, covered in blood. On one edge are pink fibers. Danny on the other hand, finds a gun, fired recently. It's a Glock, 9 mm. A police gun.

'Hi.' Everybody turns around to see who walks into the crime scene. It's a young woman.

'My name is Alexis, I'm the new member of this team.'

'Hi, I'm Sheldon, Sheldon Hawkes. This are Danny and Lindsay Messer.' They smile at her.

'Nice to meet you. What do we know about the vic?'

'His name is Maurice Jackson. 54 years old. We found his ID in his pocket. TOD about 6 hours ago.'

Alexis nods as she walks to the body. It's still sitting in the same position as when she found him. She looks at him closely, and when she's checking his shoulders, she finds a small, sticky ball. Having no idea what it is, she puts it in a bag. When they're almost finished, Jo walks in.

'Jo, are you going to do this all the time? Just walking in when we're finished, letting us do all the work? What must Alexis think of you?!' Danny says, grinning after he said it.

'You know, mister Messer, I would watch my words if I were you, because I'm the one who can fire you.'

'Sorry boss.'

'And don't call me boss, that's Mac.'

'Yes… Jo.'

'Thank you. So, what do you've find.'

'I found a piece of glass, covered in blood, first I thought it was the murder weapon, but the wounds are gunshot wounds. And Danny found a Glock, which is more likely to be the murder weapon.' Lindsay says, and Danny hands Jo the gun.

'A Glock 9 mm, that's the weapon we use at the NYPD.' Jo says, taking her own gun and compares it with the weapon found on the scene.

'Let Adam run this through AFIC.' She gives the bag back to Danny.

'So if this gun was the murder weapon, who's blood is that?'

'I don't know, but I thought, maybe our vic fight back, and this is our killers blood. I'm going to run it through the DNA database right now.' Lindsay and Danny both leave the crime scene, to investigate the evidence. Jo looks at Alexis.

'So, what did you found?'

'I found this kind of sticky stuff on the victims shoulder. And Hawkes is going to help me figure out what it is.'

'Am I?' Hawkes asks.

'Yes Sheldon. Alexis is new, so she doesn't know how the machines work. You're going to help her.'

'Sure, I don't mind. Let's go.'
