"You left me a message, saying you wanted to tell me something. What was it?"
He hesitates. "Can we talk somewhere private?"
She nods and they step into an interview room. He shuts the door behind them.
"I'm sorry," he says, rubbing his head. "I should have talked you out of going undercover. It's my fault, what's happened."
"It was my decision to go in that house."
"But I pushed you into it." He looks miserable, which makes her soften towards him. "I didn't mean any of it..."
"It doesn't matter now." She doesn't want to talk about what happened between them.
"Just tell me what I can do to start making things better."
"Rob, I killed a man." She shrugs helplessly. "Nothing can make that better, ever."
He reaches out to her and she flinches, stepping away. He keeps his eyes on hers and tries again, stepping up to her and putting his hands on her shoulders. She lets him put his arms around her and rests her head against his shoulder, too devastated to cry.
The door opens and O'Kelly sticks his head in.
"What the feck are you two doing? We've got a murderer waiting to confess."
"I'm coming now." Cassie steps away from Rob. O'Kelly makes an impatient noise and strides away, muttering something about this being a place of work and not an orgy.
