Disclaimer: Still don't own a damn thing. A/N: Ok so hopefully I haven't dug myself too deep a hole here… Toth just kinda smacked the keyboard and I was like omg, what's he doing here? But I couldn't delete it… it was too good of a way to end the chapter… Anyways, lets get this over with.

Sam stared at Commander Halloran. "And?" Toth's beef was with team one, and, as of a week ago, Sam was no longer a part of that team. As far as he was concerned, Toth's involvement with his career ended the second he signed the paperwork to move to team three.

Halloran shook his head, knowing what Sam was thinking. "There are some technicalities here… Team One being on probation extends to individual officers. Technically you're still on probation."

Sam was shaking his head - this could not be happening. Toth couldn't show up and retroactively punish he and Jules once they were on separate teams… Could he?

Halloran's face turned to annoyance. As it turned out the Commander had lost all faith in Toth after he had told him to break up the team, only to take back his decision minutes later. To Halloran that wasn't a decision to be taken lightly, which he suspected Toth did. "I spoke with the inspector. You do need a new psychological evaluation, but the he has agreed to let me handle that, not Toth."

"Great. So I don't have to talk to him, why do you need me to stay?"

Halloran sighed. "Apparently the psych evaluation is the only thing we can get you out of. If he so wishes, you do have to answer any questions he has for you about any calls you went on while you were on team one. And he does have questions. Now, Callaghan is in there right now, she's the last of Team One to speak with him, so you'll have to wait until they're done to sit down with him."

Sam rolled his eyes, "Great."


"So Julianna, how are you?"

"Skip the pleasantries Doc, we've got 45 minutes 'til my shift is done." Jules stared at him defiantly. She had no problem keeping calm, didn't even raise her voice. Patience, however, was not something she had when it came to Toth, and by the look on his face she suspected he was trying to provoke her. Being rude on the other hand, well, tone of voice wasn't going to come through today's transcripts now was it?

Toth gave an arrogant smirk at her attitude. "Sounds good. Same as last time, 3 truths, 1 lie, in that order."

"My name is Julianna Callaghan, I have four brothers, I hate take out, and I love reality television."

"Word association, so first thi-"

"Yeah I get it, fire away."
"Tree."
"Leaves."
"Farm."
"Home."
"Family."
"Distance."
"Boyfriend."
"Love."
Toth squinted slightly. "Why is love paired with boyfriend and not family?"
"Probably because my family all lives in Alberta, and I rarely see them because of the distance."
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
"Why? You interested?"
A laugh escaped Greg against his own will. Up until that point she had forgotten he was even there, hell she would have jumped at the sound of his voice had she not decided against that second cup of coffee.
"Case number 95817 - Bill Gray."
"What would you like to know?"
"Sam Braddock."
"Is that a question?"
Toth was getting annoyed. "How did Sam Braddock end up on negotiation? Isn't that your job?"
She hardly blinked. "It's all of our jobs. Who does the talking in a particular incident is case specific."
"Fair enough, but usually its yourself or Sergeant Parker here who does the talking, is it not?"
Toth pressed on in spite of Jules' silence. "It's consistently you and Sergeant Parker who negotiate. So what happened here?"
What a nuisance. Had she not just had the same conversation with SIU a week earlier? Deciding it might be the path of least resistance she bit, and began to recount the entire case to him, almost directly quoting the transcript she knew was in front of him. "We entered the building in two teams - Ed and I took the east side of the building, Sam and Raf took west. There was a suspicious package on the main floor, which Spike took care of while the rest of us went about clearing the building of additional threats."
"I'm aware of that Constable, what I'm interested in is how Constable Braddock ended up negotiating, and how Constable Rousseau was injured. Can you tell me that?"
"From what I understand, they had cleared their assigned area and were on their way out when the subject got the jump on them, injuring Raf and cornering Sam."
"From what you understand?"
"Yes. From what I understand. I already told you, Ed and I had taken east while the others went west. I was not in the room with them when it happened."
"Hm." Toth wrote something in his notes, then flipped through the case file. "So once they were cornered Sam Braddock initiated negotiation, correct?"
She nodded.
"How did that go?"
She gave him a quizzical look - where was he going with this? "He started negotiation but his comm had come out of his ear at some point so we couldn't feed him the information he needed to be successful, so the boss dialled in."
Toth shifted in his chair. "So Braddock was not able to negotiate, and Parker stepped in?"
Jules just stared him down. "Sam had no comms which left him at a disadvantage with limited information to go on, so we intervened."
"Uh huh. And what happened once Sergeant Parker dialled in?"
"The subject began to calm down, surrendered his gun. But then he began to show signs that he was committing to suicide and-"
"And so Sergeant Parker called scorpio on a disarmed man planning to kill himself?"
"No. He wasn't completely disarmed, he still had the detonator for the bomb, and was moving to detonate. If he had he would have died, taking Sam and Raf with him. So Boss called scorpio."
"Because he wasn't able to talk down the subject," Toth interjected.
Jules glared at him. "The subject had made his decision - he was distraught over the death of his wife and was going to kill himself and two SRU officers. At that point there was no time for further negotiation."
Toth continued to take notes, pausing a moment to look up at Jules, then Greg, then went right back to his notes. They sat in silence for easily five minutes before Toth spoke. "Thank you Julianna, we're done here, you can go."
