A week later there came more visitors to LVPD.
"Hello. Can we speak to Sara Sidle please?" Libby Sidle asked as she approached the desk.
She had a sweet and welcoming smile, but it also had an element of tension in it. This was of contrast to the man standing next to her, of similar age and dressed in a similarly hippie like manner, who looked impatient and quietly annoyed.
"Umm. I think she may be busy" the woman at the desk commented.
The man lost his temper and slammed his hands on the desk
"We need to see her now!" he shouted.
Libby shuddered and insisted
"Boby! - let me sort this!".
Warwick had been standing near the desk and was alerted by the shouting. He came right over.
"Oi!. Calm down!. We don't tolerate shouting at our receptionists here!. If you stay calm I'll try and help. What would you like?" Warwick said.
"Sara Sidle, please! it's urgent!" Libby replied urgently.
"O.k - I'll take you to her" said Warwick looking concerned. What was wrong he wondered?.
Meanwhile, Sara had been in the lab analysing evidence when she had heard the shout and was immediately startled like a deer in the headlights. Well, it was unusual to hear a voice that's meant to be living over 500 miles away!.
"It can't be!" Sara muttered to herself.
"I heard it too!" Laney confirmed.
Grissom, Catherine and Nick looked confused.
"Excuse me. I'll go check it out" Sara said getting up.
It didn't take Sara long to investigate. As soon as she'd turned to move to the door she saw her parents and Warwick, through the see through glass walls, approaching round the corner. She immediately looked panicked and closed the lab door.
"Quick Laney hide, it's my parents!" Sara demanded.
Sara then when out the door and closed it behind her before approaching her parents with a fake, reluctant and nervous smile across her face.
"Mom!. Dad!. How are you?. What are you doing here?" she said sweetly innocent.
"Why are you being so nice?. What are you up to?" Boby Sidle asked suspicious.
"We need to talk to you, Sara!" Libby said calmly.
"We?. Or Daddy?" Sara said ambiguously.
"We!" her mother replied.
"Umm.you remember Alaney?" her mother asked.
Sara stared at them.
"Of course I remember her!. How can I forget?. She's my favourite cousin in the whole wide world. I've grown up with her for the last 18 years!" Sara retorted.
"Well - she's ummm. Gone missing!. And there's a rumour that your aunt dropped her off at yours and you now have her. So if you do then you can just give her to us and we'll find someone more suitable to look after her - thank you very much for your help" Libby expressed.
"Yes Miranda did drop her off at mine - but I don't exactly want her do I?. So I sent her on her way!. And now I don't know where she is - haven't heard from her since" Sara replied sweetly innocent.
"Well, I'm glad to hear it!" her Boby replied.
Sara suddenly exploded and started shouting at him,
"What?!. You're glad that she's wandering around penniless, parentless and homeless?!?!".
"I'm sorry dear but I don't believe you - your acting very strange and I so I can tell that - for some strange reason you have chosen to keep her - and now we need her back!" Libby insisted.
"You make her sound like a doll - she is a human being you know!" Sara retorted.
"I knew it!. You see its comments like that!. You never used to regard her as a human being, Sara - your looking after her!. Where is she?. At your apartment?" Libby asked.
"Mother!. I don't have a maternal millimetre in my body!. Why would I look after her?" Sara said defiantly.
"Sara, I know she's a human being!. That is why I don't want you to keep her. She isn't some doll or science experiment you can mess about with - she is a person with human feelings!. I'm doing this for everyone's sake - including Alaney's. Your not suitable for her, Sara! - she deserves more from a mother!. And you deserve more from a life - more from a child than what Alaney is!. If you want children then go have some - great!. But Alaney can't be your child!" Libby argued.
There was silence as Sara thought to herself. But Boby soon interrupted it in his impatience!.
"Well there's only one way to find out if she's here!" her father declared.
Boby stormed past Sara and opened the lab door and closed it behind him before Sara could stop him. Inside the lab the other three stared at him and his outburst. It did look a strange sight as he tried to hold the door closed behind his back as Sara tried to open it.
"You can't come in here!" Grissom declared.
"Umm - Hello - I'm Sara's father!" Boby declared.
"Oh" Grissom said glancing him up and down.
The impression wasn't good and Grissom was beginning to see why Sara didn't like her father.
"Sorry to disturb you - I was just wondering if you'd seen Alaney Rose around?" Boby asked.
"Ummm - She's not here - She's at Sara's apartment!" Nick said.
"Thank you!" Boby said pleased.
He let go of the door and Sara fell in. Just then Alaney came out from where she was hiding and said
"Don't bother going to the apartment Boby I'm here!".
"Did I say the wrong thing?" Nick asked.
"Laney!. You idiot!. I'm so sorry Grissom" exclaimed Sara as she hid her hands in her face.
"Laney!. Her name is A - Laney!. It's a good job we came before it was too late!. Your coming back with us, Alaney" Boby said and eventually grabbed Laney by the wrist.
"No!. Never!. Sara stop him!" Laney protested with attitude.
Sara came heroically up to save Laney but Boby simply grabbed Sara's wrist and turned her to his side.
"Get off them!!" Grissom stood up and demanded.
Nick stood up too but Grissom seemed to be dealing with the situation fine.
"Get out of my lab!" Grissom demanded.
Boby let go of their arms and sighed out in frustration.
"I'm so sorry Grissom!. I'll get rid of them" Sara said flustered.
"It's not your fault, Sara - it's his!. Nick will you please escort Mr Sidle off the premises - And I never want to see you here again!. Understand?" Grissom demanded.
"Its o.k. - I'll take them out myself" Sara said.
"Are you sure?" Grissom asked.
"Yeah. I need to talk with them anyway" Sara replied.
Sara's mother walked in,
"Wait!. This may sort it - we bought you a present - accept this and give us Alaney!" Libby said.
"No way!. How stupid do you think I am?. Do you think you can just buy me?. You can't just." Sara paused mid sentence.
This was because Libby opened up the jewellery box, she was holding, to reveal a extremely expensive looking diamond necklace and earrings.
Sara was stunned and so was everyone else.
"Whoa!. They most cost a bomb!. How expensive is thing?" Nick asked.
Catherine and Grissom examined it.
"15 k?" Catherine asked.
"No! - Look here, Catherine - that bumps it up to 20 k at least!" Grissom added.
"Clever man!. It's 21 k!. Your friends are impressed, Sara!. Come on Alaney isn't worth it!" Libby said.
"Yes she is!. You can't put a value on us - you should know that!. Call yourself a mother!. And anyway, you can't buy me!. What? you don't think I can buy one of them for myself if I wanted?" Sara exclaimed.
"Not unless you have a spare 21 k hanging around?" Catherine exclaimed.
"She's got millions!" Laney exclaimed.
"What?!?!. Where from?" Nick asked.
"I thought you guys were poor. Sara said she lived in a trailer for the first few years of her life!. And I thought you only own a B&B!" Catherine exclaimed.
"What you think she turned into Madame snooty by living in some trailer?. You think she got to go to Harvard on some crummy public school education?. She when to finest schools around!. I can't believe Madame snooty didn't brag about her inheritance to her posh friends!. She didn't tell you about her grandparents?" Boby commented.
"What?. And you didn't go to private school?!" Sara replied.
"We haven't lived in a trailer for over 30 years!. And - Well! - Money is the root of all evil - its materialist!. We only need the bare minimum to live on - of course, we splashed out if Sara wanted it!" Libby said.
"I'm sorry I'm confused!. Where did that money come from?. Are you saying you have millions in the bank unclaimed from your dead parents?" Catherine asked.
"No - not exactly. It's just given to us a lot by my grandparents - both of sets are loaded - millions!" Sara explained.
Then Sara turned and shouted at her parents,
"If it wasn't for me you wouldn't get a cent!. Before I came along you were living in a trailer not of your own free choice!. You didn't get along with either of your parents - and Dad you still don't!. So don't try and buy me!. Because I have all the money I need!. If! - I wanted jewellery like that then all I'd need do is go running to either of my grandma or grandpas - especially yours dad!! - because their quite happy to pay more off for what a pig you are! - and ask for a necklace just like that!. But I don't worship money!. I don't give a stuff about money - and I didn't think you did till now!. You've never tried anything this low before!. Your unbelievable!. Let's discuss this outside!" Sara exclaimed.
"Oh keep it anyway!. It's not like we're going to use it!" Libby said.
"I told you I don't want it - go take it back from where you got it!" Sara said annoyed.
Libby suddenly remembered Alaney's presence.
"Alaney! Sweetheart!. Here you go! - You have it!. Consider it a little present from the Sidle's!. You deserve it!. Poor thing!" Libby exclaimed.
"I don't want it!" Alaney declared, digusted.
Sara gave her mother an expression of disbelieve.
"Laney you stay here" Sara said and then pointed to her parents saying, "You two follow me!".
"I'm so sorry Grissom" Sara reiterated as she left, followed by her parents.
"Hello. Can we speak to Sara Sidle please?" Libby Sidle asked as she approached the desk.
