She's lying in bed when her phone rings. She checks the caller I.D., and takes the phone call in the bathroom, so as not to disturb the other person in the bed. She closes the door behind her. She takes a seat on the edge of the bathtub.
"Hello? Is everything ok? Now is not a good time. Look I know you don't understand but I can't be there right now. I'm sorry. That's not fair. Yeah, fine," she hangs up. She closes the phone, and returns to the bed. He looks at her.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you."
"You got a case?"
"No."
"It's three o'clock in the morning who's calling? Lindsey?"
"No she wouldn't call this late."
"So who was it?"
"No one, go back to sleep."
"Cath what's going?"
"Nothing."
"Why are you lying to me?"
"Lou why are you grilling me about this."
"If someone calls you at three o'clock in the morning there's obviously a good reason."
"Go back to sleep."
"Maybe I should go."
"No," she shakes her head, "I'll go."
She collects her things, and leaves the hotel room. She heads to the parking lot and gets in her car. Lou follows her, hoping that she won't notice. She doesn't head home. Instead she veers to the left. When she pulls into the parking lot at Desert Palms he drives by in confusion.
The following day he stops by her office to ask if she wants to get something to eat. He over hears her on the phone.
"Yeah. I'm sure. Ok. I'll see you later. Bye," she hangs up.
He waits a few seconds, and then he knocks at her door.
"Come in," she answers.
"You want to get a bite to eat?"
"I just wrapped up this case, and I really just want to go home and take a shower. And I promised Lindsey that I'd be home tonight."
"Ok," he agrees.
When she leaves he follows her again. He stays out of site as she turns onto a residential street. She pulls into a driveway of one of the houses, and he parks on the street. He grabs his binoculars and watches her carefully. She walks up the driveway. She heads up the sidewalk to the front door. She pushes the doorbell, and waits few seconds. The front door opens, and he sees Nick inside. They exchange a few words and Catherine steps in. Lou tosses the binoculars aside, and turns on the car. He speeds away, trying to put what he's just seen out of his mind.
