Mother Teresa

Shoulda seen it coming. Thought the woman was wedded to her career. Thought she'd know better than to fall for the two-bit charm of a scam artist. But I had to put him someplace. And he might be a fraud and an asshole, but he's damn useful.
Guess we all remember the last time she took a vacation. She was out of the office for a week. And he got seconded to another team.
It lasted three hours.
Nobody else can handle him. She's the only one has half a hope of controlling him. Dunno how she does it, don't want to know. Hell, I read the psych report on him. 'Trouble with male authority figures' isn't the half of it. I don't think there's any respect in him for anything. Except just maybe Lisbon.
Still feel like I've thrown her to the wolves.
And now 'Mother Teresa' has the rest of her cubs on board, too. She can't fix that crazy sonovabitch. Hard choices – do I let her bury her career, or do I find a way round? I've seen that kind of anger in cop's eyes before – he won't drop it, and god knows, we need to get that sick bastard before he starts cutting women up again.
Ah, she's remembered that there are other people in the world than her golden boy. 'Rhetorical stand' indeed. I'm so used to the agent, I forgot about that damn maternal streak. She takes the weight of him, it's going to drag her down. Though when has that ever stopped a woman?
I ever have to look down at her in a bodybag, and I'll shoot the prick myself.
