15 Things You Didn't Know About

Chief Karen Vick

1. She suffers from insomnia.

2. She considers Juliet to be her closest friend at the station. Not that she'd ever tell.

3. Karen is a bit jealous of her sister. She's taller, smarter, better with people…okay, maybe not the last one. But still.

4. It broke her heart that her husband couldn't be there for the birth of their child. But it made her smile to see Lassiter so happy to be there.

5. She didn't really believe Lassiter had killed that man…but somewhere, in the back of her mind…she felt just a twinge of uncertainty. It kills her now to look back and know that she had doubted him when he was innocent.

6. Star Trek is her favorite show of all time.

7. She wishes just one person would call her Karen instead of Chief. Other than Henry Spencer, that is.

8. Her father is in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. But he still remembers her. Every time she visits, he looks lost and then, out of the dark, his eyes light up and he exclaims, "Karen!" Even if a day comes when he no longer remembers her, she will still be there to make his eyes light up. Her sister rarely visits, though. She can't stand to see him like that.

9. She thinks Lassiter has really beautiful eyes.

10. Karen likes watching hockey with her husband. It helps her unwind.

11. Lady Gaga is growing on her. Kesha is not.

12. Once she made the mistake of going on a stakeout with Lassiter while she was pregnant. The entire time, he kept asking if she was tired or having trouble breathing or felt any abdominal pains. She said she appreciated his concern. He replied that a birth would probably ruin their cover, not to mention the mess. She told him to go home.

13. She finds herself a little disappointed when they don't need to hire Shawn and Gus. Those two sure make the cases more interesting.

14. Her favorite word is tintinnabulation.

15. She loves her job and everyone she works with. In fact, they're what keep her going when it looks like the bad guys will win. They give her hope.

Author's Note: Not as long as some of the others, but I'm rather happy with the result. I think Mary will be next and then possibly Abigail…Any requests? Plase Review :)
