Special Agent Alyssa Spencer


"We need to find out what the Dexter's are hiding." Said Horatio as he and Alyssa walked down the halls of the Miami crime lab to see what Calleigh and Ryan had discovered.

"I agree but without a warrant for their arrest and a warrant to search their home we can only go so far." Alyssa reasoned

"Then we need to find enough information to constitute a warrant." He said as they turned into the office Calleigh and Ryan were working in.

"You got anything new?" asked Horatio

"No, nothing. We went over all of the crime scene photos, evidence, notes everything and nothing we found can help track this guy down." Explained Ryan exasperated

"What about Boa Vista has she come up with anything new, from that photo we found?" enquired Alyssa

"Yes she did." Said Natalia walking into the room files in hand "I researched all of the surviving members of the 'In-crowd' and the remaining three of the ten all live here in Miami."

"We need to get them under police protection immediately." Said Horatio

"I'm on it." Said Alyssa whipping out her phone

"Hey," greeted Eric walking into the room "I got good news and I got bad news."

"What's the good news?" Alyssa asked snapping her phone shut

"I found blood on that yearbook page that did not match any of the victims and I got a match" Eric said

"Great, who does the blood belong to?" Alyssa asked again

"That's the bad news according to the data in CODIS the blood belongs to Mark Dexter."

"The kid that died falling off a cliff." Clarified Ryan

"Yep" Eric nodded

"So our killer is the first death of the 'In-crowd'" said Calleigh

"Not necessarily, the match was only 80." Explained Eric

"So we're looking for a sibling?" asked Alyssa

"More specifically a brother." Said Eric

"Okay, here's what were gonna do; Natalia I want you find out how many brother's Mark Dexter had and where they all are, if one of them still lives with the parents then we'll have enough for a warrant to search the premises. And the rest of us will have to split up and bring in all of the remaining 'In-Crowd'." Explained Alyssa

"How many are left?" Inquired Horatio

"Three. Fred Stafford, Sarah Johnson and Peter Johnson." Alyssa told them

"The two Johnson's are brother and sister?" Eric asked

"Nope, high school sweethearts. Got married right after graduation. Romantic isn't it?" Alyssa smirked. Eric chuckled softly in response.

"Okay," said Horatio, jumping in "Eric you go with Agent Spencer and Calleigh you come with me."

"What do you want me to do?" asked Ryan

"Wait for Natalia to collect the information on the Dexter's, then get a warrant for their DNA." Ryan nodded in response

"Okay you take Fred Stafford and we'll take Sarah and Peter Johnson." Said Alyssa handing Horatio the address of Fredrick Stafford.

"Let's go."


Later, at the lab, after the remainder of the 'In-Crowd' had been rounded up, Alyssa and Horatio began the questioning

"Mr. Stafford how well did you know these people?" question Alyssa showing him the yearbook picture found at the crime scene.

"We hung out in high school." Stafford replied simply

"What about Mark Dexter, how well did you know him?" enquired Alyssa

"About as well as I knew everybody else" said Stafford, annoyance rising in his voice "Is there a reason you're asking me about Mark?"

"How did he die?" asked Horatio

"You're the FBI why don't you tell me."

"We're the ones asking the questions so you will be doing the answering," said Alyssa "Now how did he die?"

Stafford sighed in defeat "It was the senior prank okay? We all went to the top of the ski mountain, we were planning to make this huge slide going from the top of the slide right down to the bottom, tie some loser into a sledge and cover him with a banner saying 'Senior Class Kicks Ass'." He smiled as he recalled the memories

"What went wrong?" asked Horatio

"I don't know one minute we were tying this kid up with the banner, and the next thing we knew Mark had fallen off the mountain."

"Was he arguing with anyone before he fell?" Alyssa asked

"Are you kidding everyone loved Mark, except his ex's of course."

"Would you care to elaborate?" Alyssa pushed

"Mark had a rep for treating his women like trash. It was a well earned rep."


Outside Eric was watching the interrogation, just watching the way Alyssa worked, when Ryan came up behind him.

"You know I'm actually a little surprised." Said Ryan, watching her

"Surprised?" asked Eric

"Yeah, your attitude with Calleigh's fed friend."

"What do you mean?"

"You hate the FBI more than anyone else here, so I was expecting you get all bent outta shape about a fed in the lab."

"I guess you were wrong." Said Eric still watching Alyssa, which Ryan noticed

"Are you checking her out?" he asked, not even trying to hold back from smirking

"What?" he said finally turning to face Ryan

"It's just that you've hardly looked at me during this entire conversation, you've been looking at Alyssa."

"I don't know what you're on right now but I wasn't checking her out."

"Uh huh," sounded Ryan "Whatever you say."

At that point Natalia came up to Eric and Ryan "Hey guys. So, it turns out that Mark had three brothers, and only two of them live here in Miami."

"Where does the other one live?" asked Ryan, taking the files that Natalia held in her hands

"Spain," said Natalia "He moved there about five years ago and he hasn't been back since."

"So that rules him out," said Ryan "What about the other two?"

"One lives in the Gables and the other lives with the parents." Explained Natalia

"Looks like Alyssa got her wish, I'm gonna grab Calleigh get this DNA." With that Ryan turned around and went off to find Calleigh, and Eric turned back to watch the interrogation.

Like Ryan, Natalia noticed Eric watching Alyssa "Be careful with her," said Natalia "She's not a cop, she's a fed."

"No offence but I really don't need advice on relationships or the FBI from you." Said Eric, not even turning to look at her.


"So you're saying that Mark had a lot of jealous boyfriends looking to crucify him." Said Alyssa

"Yeah." Stafford replied

"Could anyone who was on the cliff that day have been looking for revenge?" Alyssa asked

"No I do…" he trailed off

"Mr Stafford?" said Horatio, imploring for him to continue

"Peter. Yeah, Peter was genuinely pissed that day." Said Stafford, sitting up.

"You mean Peter Johnson?" asked Horatio.

"Yeah the week before the trip Mark slept with Sarah, his girlfriend." Stafford explained

Horatio and Alyssa looked at each other for conformation.

Alyssa stood up and headed for the door.

"Thank you Mr Stafford you've been very helpful." Said Horatio, before following Alyssa out the door.
