Keith walked towards Daniel, smiling. "Daniel, where is your partner?"

"Partner?" Daniel said cautiously.

"Yes, your partner the psychiatrist Cole Ferris who is currently in your hotel room. If I remember correctly he has been your partner for two years."

"What?" Daniel sounding surprised.

"For futures references, never again lie and underestimate what a local ex-sheriff and actual P.I. can discover during a little search in his free time. In the short time that you have been in Neptune all you have done is pissed off two Mars, I really hope that you don't try to do the same with my future son in law, because he have a little less patience than me."

"I didn't lie," Daniel lied again. "I'm investigating some irregularities in Jack's files..."

Keith nodded. "If you say so, but I think that Jack's people didn't remember any of these irregularities that you and Director Teresa Smithon with some friend in Payroll have discovered. Oh look… here they are, the couple of the moment," he smiled.

Daniel looked in the direction Keith was nodding. Veronica was holding Weevil's and looking at Daniel with disdain, even though Weevil smiled.

"Your Dad and Daniel," Weevil nodded to her fiancé.

Veronica frowned. What was he doing here?

"Do you want to mingle?" Weevil squeezed his hand to show Veronica his support.

"No, I want to speak to Daniel for a moment. Will you keep Dad and your Grandma busy?" Veronica kissed her lover softly on the cheek.

"Lead on, but no funny business with him and I'll expect to be rewarded when we get home," Weevil laughed.

"Don't worry he will not appreciate me like you would, but if the offer come from you then you will get lucky. When weren't you rewarded?" Veronica smiled.

Weevil leaned in close and whispered. "That's one of the reasons I love you."

Veronica face exploded into a smile, which lit up the room.

"I thought you wanted a word with Daniel," Weevil smiled and pulled Veronica along.

"Sheriff," Weevil smiled at him.

"Both of you make a beautiful couple tonight," Keith smiled as he kissed his daughter.

"Daniel," Veronica nodded. "I would like to speak to you."

Weevil stopped Keith from following them. "Is Veronica okay?" He asked.

"Why?" Weevil asked suspiciously.

"I saw her this afternoon and she was upset," he sighed.

"What happened?" Weevil asked, concerned.

"She was questioning me about the time she left school early and went off with her uncle."

"When was that?" Weevil looked puzzled. He couldn't remember anything about Veronica leaving school early. But there was a time that they didn't move in the same social circles.

"It was after Lilly was killed," he replied. "Veronica graduated a year early and went off with Jack for six months. She came back from Washington and went back to school again, to increase her grades. Veronica couldn't remember and it upset her."

Weevil wasn't sure he'd heard right. "Veronica graduated twice?"

Keith nodded. "I was just happy she gave up on the FBI."

"FBI?" Weevil gasped.

"Yes, I can't believe this hasn't come up before," Keith shook his head. "And I can't believe she doesn't remember."

"And she was gone for six months?" Weevil said slowly. Was this what Veronica was so upset about?

Keith nodded. "It's Daniel fault and all his questions," he sighed. "The therapist she was seeing said because Jack wasn't around while she was recovering, Veronica's memory wasn't stimulated about her uncle. I had no idea, she lost a section of her youth as well," he sighed again.

Weevil patted his arm. "Try not to worry. I asked Veronica why she was upset this afternoon and she wouldn't tell me. I'm assuming she will when she's ready, but until then, it's probably better if she doesn't know you told me."

"You're right and Eli don't underestimated Daniel questions and motivations."

Weevil forced a smile.
