"Commander." Jen knocked on Harm's office door.
"Come in Jen. What can I do for you?"
"This is for you sir." She held out one of the red roses which had been tied with a ribbon around it.
"Thank you, but you know your fiancé might get mad if you start giving me flowers." Harm teased.
"It's from the Colonel sir. There is a note too but she wanted me to ask you arranged to baby-sit first before I give it to you."
"She sent you to find out who I asked to baby-sit?"
"Yes sir."
"Tell her Sturgis."
"That will be acceptable." Jen said.
"Nice to know it meet your approval Jen." He smiled.
"Sir, she'll only trust Abigail with certain people. Commander Turner is one of them."
"There was a note?" Harm asked. Jen handed over the envelope.
"If you'll excuse me sir, I need to go and find Lieutenant Roberts and Lieutenant Travis."
"Go ahead."
"And sir." Jen said.
"Yeah."
"The roses were a nice touch."
"She liked them?"
"Almost as much as when you drop by." Jen winked at him. "I better go."
Harm sat back and read his note.
"Lieutenant Roberts." Jen said as she found him in the break room.
"Yes Jen?" Bud asked.
"Colonel Mackenzie is ready to reconvene. She's reached a decision."
"Did she give you any hint as to what it was?" Bud asked.
"Yes sir, but I can't tell. She'll reconvene as soon as I can locate Lieutenant Travis."
"In the conference discussing things with his client." Bud replied.
"Thank you sir." Jen glanced at her watch. "It'll take ten minutes to get everything set up so we'll start in fifteen minutes."
"Okay. Thanks Jen." Jen left the break room and walked to the conference room and knocked on the door.
"Enter." Lieutenant Travis called.
"Sir, Colonel Mackenzie is ready to reconvene. We'll start again at half past." Jen informed him.
"Did she hint at..." The defendant asked.
"I'm afraid that I can't reveal that information. If you'll excuse me I have to get back."
"Go." Lieutenant Travis said.

"Ma'am." Jen said as she walked into Mac's office.
"Did you find them?" She asked.
"Yes ma'am. Everything is set up for seven minutes."
"Did you ask Harm?"
"Commander Turner." Jen replied.
"Good. Now I just have to write a list for him."
"Give him my phone number ma'am, if he can't cope I can always go and help."
"Jen I think Harm didn't ask you for a specific reason. I think he figured you and Jason would like to have Saturday night to yourselves."
"If the Commander thought that for a certain reason then I'm sure it can wait." Jen replied.
"Actually he probably thought you could use the time to discuss setting a date or what kind of wedding you want."
"Well I personally want something very simple, no big fuss. Just our close friends and family. Nothing too showy or military. Something in the middle of a field maybe." Jen replied.
"I have a grandmother-in-law with a gorgeous farm house and lots of open fields which will be full of wild flowers by June. It's only a couple hours away." Mac pointed out.
"You think Grams would let us have the wedding at her farm?" Jen asked.
"Jen she'd love it. I'll give her a call and sound her out about the idea, if that's what you and Jason want. Talk it over with him and get back to me."
"Thank you ma'am."
"We should get to court."
"Yes ma'am." Jen smiled.
