After a long silence, Maggie stands up and faces Marshall. "There is something that I have to do. Come

to my place tomorrow… and we will talk. I have to let the shock wear off a bit." She leans down and

kisses him on the cheek. Marshall takes her hand in his for a moment, releasing it as she walks away.

He watches her meander through the crowds of school children enjoying an afternoon at the museum.

Maggie listens to the ridiculous amount of messages on her phone before returning just a single call… to

Rock. They speak briefly. Rock takes the call while standing in Nico's office. From his voice, Nico knows

that Rock is speaking with Maggie. He is trying to figure out why Maggie hasn't returned any of his calls

today and is a little concerned. He doesn't know if she has heard about Marshall.

"Maggie?" Nico asks the question that Rock is already expecting. "She's fine. Just at "work."" He air

quotes it for Nico as he answers. Nico looks at him only half believing what he is being told.

Maggie heads to her brown stone and changes her clothes. She is now dressed up in full on "debwear"

as she terms it. She is dressed in an elegant red cocktail dress and heels. She calls a car and heads out

to a charity event.

At the event, Maggie mixes and mingles with some friends and associates. Within a half an hour she sees

Gabrielle. She makes her way towards her playing her society role as expected.

"Why Maggie, I didn't expect to see you here." Gabrielle kisses her on the cheek putting on a show.

"Hello Gabby, don't you look lovely." Maggie gives her the look of death. Gabrielle knows Maggie is

there on business. They each take a glass of champagne and walk towards the balcony. Once they are

out of earshot of the crowd, Maggie speaks. "So can we drop the "Burns and Allen" routine for a

moment?" Gabrielle relents and gives Maggie her full attention. "Do you have any idea what you have

done?" Gabrielle gives her an odd look. "Don't give me that look, with all of the time I have in at the

Agency, I have a friend or two at Interpol myself, Deary." Gabrielle gives her a look of shock and

surprise. "Cut the drama, I have known for years. I know that it is the reason you married Marshall over

Nico…it is the reason for most of the things in your life including the divorce. I think the only part I don't

understand is Juliette." Gabrielle remains silent and appears to be trying to figure out who Maggie

would know at her Agency. "You know the Russians are going to double cross you. They know with

Marshall gone, Juliette inherits the lion's share of Marshall's estate. The funeral was actually a hit was

on Nico but they brought in the minor leagues. They won't make that mistake twice especially since

they now know who Juliette is. They are also likely to take another swipe at Nico."

"Maggie" Gabrielle tries to speak but Maggie cuts her off. "Gabby, I know you made the deal with the

Russians that compromised Nico in Iraq. The arms dealer that sold him out to the tribal leaders…"

Gabrielle's jaw has dropped at that accusation… "Don't give me that look, Gabby, he was your patsy and

I was doing my job. I just remembered him. Both Nico and Marshall almost died on that retrieval and

you just sat back and played the dutiful... what shall we call it girlfriend and girlfriend... girlfriend squared... Hell

you were practically a set of twins." Gabrielle shoots her a look. "You made your point, Maggie."

Gabrielle is at a loss for words with how much Maggie knows. Her tone changes and becomes very

business-like. They are now talking Agent to Agent. "Do they know?"

Maggie pauses for a moment. "No they do not know and I do not want them to know. They both loved

you. They both sacrificed for you. I will not allow you to hurt them with the truth and I care for them too

much to sell you out so I think we can reach an accord."

"An accord?" Maggie and Gabrielle eye each other closely. Maggie turns her attention

towards the room as she speaks. "You are going to help me bring down them for good."

Gabrielle gives her a look of distain. "Dust off your Glock baby girl 'cause Interpol is coming to the alphabet

party." Maggie pauses for a moment as she finishes her champagne. "You do remember how to shoot

it." Maggie hands Gabrielle a card. She places her glass on the tray of a passing waiter. "See you then."

Maggie winks at Gabrielle as she walks back into the crowd. Gabrielle looks at the card and sighs as she

places it in her bag. "Damn freaking CIA."
