Rosalind's fingers are pressed against the glass. She's looking directly at Rob, although she can't see him. She taunts him, calling him Adam, speaking in a ridiculous English accent. He feels dizzy, like he's in a dream where's he's falling and about to hit the ground.
He's only dimly aware of O'Kelly opening the door and telling Rob to come to his office. He doesn't move until he feels Sam put a gentle hand on his arm, saying his name. Sam and Quigley are both looking at him with shock and concern, and worst of all pity. Phelan just looks mortified.
He stumbles out of the observation room, nearly tripping over as he goes, and walks slowly into O'Kelly's office. O'Kelly has pulled some of the 1985 photographs from the wall and is looking at Adam's photo. He looks from it to Rob as if comparing the freckles.
"Is it true?" he says quietly. "Are you Adam Reilly?"
Rob meets his eyes and nods slowly. He still feels winded.
"What in God's name were you thinking?" O'Kelly is still dangerously quiet. "You couldn't have destroyed this case more if you'd tried. All that digging into 1985. You were investigating your own disappearance!"
Rob tries to explain, although his words sound feeble even to him. "I thought... if I could solve this case, I could find out what happened back then as well. I didn't tell you because I didn't want to be taken off the case."
"Don't give me that!" O'Kelly snaps. "You lied to me. You told me Adam Reilly was dead in a car crash!"
"I was panicking." Rob can feel tears starting at the back of his eyes and hopes O'Kelly can't see them. "I didn't want to lose my job. I love this job. It's all I've ever wanted."
O'Kelly almost looks sad for him. "You know I'll have to suspend you."
Rob nods. He takes his ID and his gun and places them on the desk, the gesture feeling foolishly melodramatic. Finally he says the most important thing, the thing he's been wanting to say since he walked in here:
"Maddox didn't know."
