This is set just before the 7th season.
August 4th-
Adam was asleep when his alarm clock woke him; he didn't want to get up since he had a hard time going to sleep.
"Oh, I gotta go to work. At least I can drink some sodas today to keep me awake." He got ready and went to work.
At the crime lab-
Mac went to see what forensic evidence was obtained in the samples in the assault case of Mistina Johnston.
"What kind of fibers are there that can trace back to the attacker, Lindsay?"
"Just a thread of a red sweater made of cotton."
"Any DNA from the attacker?"
"Yes, and the guy touched the handle of the bathroom door so we have fingerprints, but they are smudged."
"I'm going to have Adam check the database," Mac said then continued, "What about the stains on the kitchen floor?
"They were soy sauce and ketchup. The bottles must have gotten knocked over near the edge of the table when she got attacked. She didn't see him coming. We did get shoe prints from upstairs so the attacker was waiting for her to come home."
"What size is it?"
"Size 10."
They poured over the photographs of the mess from the attack. Condiments were on the floor, spilled glass, and some food that was not touched.
"Any witnesses?"
"Yeah and there was a witness. But they could only say the attacker was wearing a hooded sweatshirt and left in a hurry. Most of what we collected didn't help much."
Sheldon walked up to them. "I looked up the names of her ex-boyfriend and a few other friends that she has, so we can talk to them. One has unpaid parking tickets and most have clean records."
"Start with them," Mac said as he walked away.
Sheldon and Lindsay walked towards the elevator when they saw Adam walk in.
"Morning, Adam," they both said.
"Morning, where are you both going?"
"Going to interview some friends of Mistina Johnson."
"Have fun," Adam said as he walked to his computer.
Meanwhile-
Danny was in the ballistics room shooting a gun in the ballistics gel. The gun was found in a dumpster the day of the armed robbery. He was testing the bullets to see if they matched the bullet wounds from people shot during the robbery. He went to see Mac and Jo in his office.
"Okay, the bullets are a match to those that were fired in the vics. No usable prints on the weapon but did find out who owned it before," Danny said as he gave the folder to Mac.
"So, who owned it?" Jo asked.
"Mark Prescot. He bought his gun a year ago then reported it stolen a few days ago," Danny said.
"Get Flack and talk to him, see what he has to say now," Mac said as they heard Adam yelling as Danny opened the doors.
"I have taken over as Head of the Crime Lab! Hahahaha!" Adam yelled.
"He's doing his virtual game again. He's such a geek," Danny said with a smirk as he walked out to do the interview.
Mac walked to Adam, who was listening to his music on his iPod.
"What are you doing?"
"I was on break but now I will get back to work," Adam said nervously.
"What is this evil plot you have about taking over my crime lab?" Mac asked with a faint smile.
"Just joking around...uh...Boss." Adam grinned.
"Good." Mac went back to his office.
Thursday, August 5th-
Adam was very excited about the gaming competition that was being held all week and he couldn't wait for his work day to be over. Everyone noticed he was super hyper and Mac told him to lay off the caffeine even though he knew why Adam was excited.
4pm-
"Home free!" Adam yelled as he was in the garage of the building and went to get something to eat.
5pm-
He went in the convention center where he was in awe of the games he could play, especially the virtual games that he so enjoyed. He met a girl there, Shannon Torres, who was into virtual games as much as Adam.
"Hi, I'm Adam Ross."
"Hi, I'm Shannon Torres. So, how long are you going to be here tonight?" she asked.
"Probably til 9pm. I gotta get to work in the morning - even though I would love to stay all night, I can't." He was nervous.
"I work at Starbucks and will be there in the morning. I can only stay maybe two hours but maybe we can play some games? Where do you work?"
"Sure, we can do that. I work at a crime lab."
"Ooooh, sounds exciting." She played with his beard.
He laughed, "Let's play some games."
"Okay." They went to play some games until Shannon left.
He had told himself to play for another half hour but he ended up finding himself lost in the games.
Friday August, 6th 9:30am-
Mac and Sheldon came back from a crime scene and Sheldon went to scan some pictures they had taken. Mac went to Adam's workstation and noticed he wasn't there. He walked around the lab and asked employees if they had seen Adam, which they hadn't. Mac went to his desk, sat down, and started calling.
"Danny, have you seen Adam this morning?" Mac asked as he called him on his cell.
"No. I haven't," Danny said.
Mac called Lindsay, "Lindsay, have you seen Adam this morning?"
"No, Mac, I haven't."
Mac called Sid but he hadn't seen Adam either.
He called Flack."Have you seen Adam yet? No, okay. Bye."
Jo walked in with folders as she noticed Mac was on the phone.
"What's going on?"
"Have you seen Adam this morning?"
"No. I take it you haven't?"
"No. I haven't tried his home or cell yet, but I wanted to see if anyone has seen him," Mac said.
"I bet he just overslept," Jo said as she sat on the chair.
Mac replied, "I'll put $5 down that he was at one of his all-night game parties again."
Jo said, "I'll take that bet."
"We'll find out," Mac called Adam's home number but got a machine.
"Not there? Ugh! I just lost $5!" She said annoyed but was a bit concerned.
Mac laughed, "No, but one more chance."
"Has he ever been late?" she asked.
"Yes, but usually I never have to call him. Last shot," Mac said then dialed Adam's cell number as she crossed her fingers.
