"What is it?

"I could tell you what it says, I got one of my own. Just open it." Grissom said as he rubbed the bridge of his nose.

"You got one too?" Nick said as he opened it.

Dear Nick Stokes,

It has come to my attention that you, Nick Stokes, are in a romantic relationship with the following CSI, Sara Sidle. With my new responsibility and position as head of the Las Vegas Crime Units, I feel it is my job to uphold the image of the force. I do not want to have any of my employees involved with other workers. I am asking for your resignation from your position of CSI 3 or the ending of the relationship between yourself and Sara Sidle. If I do not receive your papers by the end of the month that you are resigning, or that I am unable to confirm your relationship is over, you will be terminated. I am sorry to inform you of this. Do not assume I am singling you out. There are other employees of Las Vegas that I am requesting the termination of.

"He's asking me to resign. Can he do this? What about Sara? She didn't get one of these did she?" Nick said in shock.

"I guess he can do this. I received one too. So did Greg, I'm pretty sure." Grissom said holding up another envelope addressed to Greg.

"What are we suppose to do? I'm not breaking up with Sara, we're getting married in a couple of months." Nick said looking over the letter again

"I'm going to make a couple of phone calls. I'm going to call Jimmy Hines, my friend who got me Kate, maybe he can find us some jobs."

"What are you planning Grissom. That guys lives in California, and only three of us got fired."

"Nick, are you going to break up with Sara? Is Greg going to break up with Kate? No."

"So, you're thinking, we all quit and move to a new lab."

"That was my best idea. I'll talk to you later, okay. If you see Greg, tell him I'll talk to him about this too." Grissom said as he looked through his phone numbers for Jimmy's.

"Yeah boss." Nick said as he left

---------------------------------------------------------

"Yeah, we'll come" Sara said in reply to Greg's question about Friday night.

"Okay. Hey Nick. What Grissom want?" Greg said as Nick walked in. Greg, Sara, and Kate were all sitting in the DNA lab. It had been over a year since Kate had been hired to replace Greg in the lab, and the both have been inseparable for almost as long.

"Here" Nick said handing Greg his own letter. "I got one too."

"Are you serious. Can he do this?" Greg said with his eyes still glued to the letter. Wondering what was going, Kate leaned over Greg's shoulder for a look.

"What is it?" Sara asked reaching for Nick's letter.

"Grissom, Greg, and I are getting fired because we are romantically involved with someone inside the workplace." With that as the final note, they were all paged by Grissom to meet in the break room.
