It was a stormy night at the NYPD precinct when she stumbled in. Her hair, once probably sleek, shiny, and black, was hanging from her head in wet waves. Her long, blue fringe was stuck to the sides of her face. All in all, had she not been crying, it would have made for an interesting spectacle.

Lindsay Monroe and Mac Taylor recognized her immediately as Angelica Messer, Danny's dearest sister. Lindsay recognized her from the picture of Danny, Louie, and the girl, who she had previously only known as Angie. Mac recognized her from her last meeting with Danny, where she had told him that she was going away to San Francisco for a while and that she would be back eventually. Until he had been told otherwise, Mac had assumed they were lovers, due to her parting remark, which was "Don't wait for me." Later, Danny had told him that when they were younger, and later when it was just Danny and Angie, they would tell each other where they were going and when they would be back. The last thing any of the siblings would say would be don't wait for me, meaning that if you had something to do, but you wanted to wait, you didn't. Angie had started it, Danny told Mac. Angie had always told them never to live their lives with regrets.

A man came in behind her, and when he dropped his hood, they recognized him as Sheldon Hawkes. He put a comforting arm around her shoulders, and Sheldon led Angelica to where Lindsay and Mac stood.

"Mac, I think we need to sit down with this young lady and have a chat. Is Danny on call?" he said.

"No, he's not. I can bring him on if that-"

"No, that's good. He has a hell of a temper Mr. Taylor, and he doesn't need to hear this," Angelica cut him off. While her demeanor was childlike, she was strong in her words, despite her tears.

"Eventually, he'll find out," Mac said softly, adding his arm to her shoulders.

"But he doesn't need to hear the details, Mr. Taylor..."

"And what case does this deal with, Sheldon?"

"The Faux Rape Spree," Sheldon answered.
