--Chapter 5--
Back at HQ, Catherine, Nick and Warrick were in the break room discussing what to do next.
"What the hell are you all doing?" Ecklie walked in the break room.
"What..." Nick said but Ecklie wasn't finished.
"You're contaminating the evidence!" he screamed. "Who decided to put you on the case?"
"We thought..."
"Don't think!" Ecklie yelled. "I just spoke to Mobley, and MY team will take this case!"
Ecklie turned around and walked towards the door but before he left he turned.
"And you!" he pointed at Nick "I heard what you said about my new lab technician. Wendy Williams is one of the best lab techs I ever had and I don't think she would mess up evidence!"
Nick looked down. He knew that Ecklie had a point. When he looked up to reply, Ecklie was gone.
"He has a point." Cath said. "I was so upset, that I didn't think about the consequences."
"So did I." Warrick looked to Catherine. "I hope we didn't screw things up."

Wendy was processing the last blood sample, when Nick walked into the lab.
Wendy looked up and when she saw it was Nick, she turned back to her work.
"I'm not finished yet." She said and turned around.
"I'm sorry about my behavior earlier. I was upset and I shouldn't..." he said but Wendy interrupted him.
"Yes, you shouldn't, but what happened, happened. You can't turn back the time, so lets say we forget it, ok?" she said and turned around to face him.
At that moment the printer printed out some results. Wendy reached out to grab the paper. When she read the test results, she looked up. "The first four blood samples belong to Sara and two others came back unknown."
The printer started again.
Wendy handed the paper over to Nick and retrieved the next paper. She walked over to Nick and looked at the blood sample paper.
"I have to check something." and turned around.
She walked to her computer and loaded up the test results. She compared the DNA from the blood with the DNA on the cigarette. After a couple of minutes, the computer told her that it was a match.
"We have a match, but now we need a name." She said and looked at Nick.
Catherine walked into the lab.
"We have a match!" she said. Nick looked at her confused.
"The partial fingerprint?" she reminded him. "It belongs to Patrick Quinn."
"Was he in our database?" Nick asked Catherine.
"Yeah, he was convicted for abusing and raping his ex-wife."
"Is there an DNA profile of him?" Wendy asked Catherine.
"Yes, there is and I'm Catherine Willows" she shook Wendy's hand.
"I'm Wendy Williams. I will compare those two DNA profiles and look if they match."
"Thanks. When you have the results, give them to Ecklie. It is his case now." Catherine said to her.
"Huh...what happened?" she asked unbelievable.
"Well, the victim is one of our crew. Ecklie was pissed at us because we did work her case."
"I'm sorry to hear that the victim was your colleague. Now I understand why you were a little... stressed." She smiled at Nick.
"Again. I'm really sorry." Nick said.
Catherine and Nick walked out of the lab and went to the hospital.
********
When Catherine walked to Grissom's room, she saw Greg sitting in the waiting area.
"Greg?" she asked.
Greg looked up and turned hid head.
"Why didn't you say anything about Grissom's cardiac arrest?" Greg looked a little angry. "I know that I'm only the lab rat but I also care about my colleagues."
"Greg, I'm sorry I didn't tell you. I thought it would be too much at the same time and...you are our friend. I was just..."
"I saw Sara" he looked up to Catherine. "If I find out who did this to her, I will kill him!"
Catherine nodded. "I'm going to see Grissom now."
"I'm going back to the lab" he said and rose out of the chair.
"Greg! There is something I have to tell you. Ecklie has taken over the case." Catherine was a little scared of his reaction to this.
"Ok" was all he said and left.
Catherine walked in Grissom's room. She saw that he was a wake.
"Hi Gil" he said.
"Cath"
Catherine sat down next to the bed and looked at him. "I have some news."
"She didn't try to kill herself Grissom. Someone tried to kill her!"
"What!"
"We found blood and a fingerprint. They didn't belong to Sara."
"What do you mean WE! You didn't take the case, did you?"
"I wasn't thinking rationally Griss. I'm sorry."
"How is she?"
"She is still unconscious."
"Did you find out whose blood and fingerprint it was?"
"Yeah, they belonged to Patrick Quinn."
"Patrick" he said horrified.
Catherine saw the look on Grissom's face.
"Do you know him?"
"Knowing him is a big word. Patrick is Sara's ex-husband!"
"He was charged of..." Catherine said but stopped immediately. She was speechless.
"I know." he looked away from Catherine. "I remember that day if it was yesterday."
