Spoilers: Red Cell
I hope everyone watched NCIS tonight (Tuesday 4/26). If you didn't... what is your issue dude? I liked it... a lot. My favorite part had to be when Abby was talking about her nickname and then she is like, "Too much caffiene." It was cute. They didn't really say much about the Panama City incident, at least not from Gibbs. So it makes me wonder what he thought? But can Gibbs kick some ass or what? I mean damn, he had that old man on the floor. He's good... really good! What else I thought was really cool was how George Clooney was mentioned as hot. Do I have taste or what? (If you are wondering what the hell I am talking about... read Chapter 18.) Also, I thought Abby and McGee were involved? If they are then why did McGee have a half-naked girl walk out of his room? Maybe Tony is wrong, maybe Probie can get laid. (Or is it layed?)
Anyways, read and review please. We are nearing the end of this story... tear.
"Did anyone ever speak to Peters' wife? I mean, was she questioned?" Kate asked, tapping a pencil on her desk.
"I don't think that anyone suspected her. Gibbs asked her a few things, but I'm pretty sure that she had an alibi," Tony replied after biting off a piece of a candy bar.
"Oh... I see." Kate sounded disappointed. She was ready to wrap this case up too. Getting kidnapped again was not something she wanted to put on her to do list. "Well, she had to be the mother of the baby Taylor was carrying. Lucas wouldn't want to have a kid with just anyone. Surrogation is something that is planned out."
"You have a point there Katie. You think Gibbs will allow us to go talk to her? Apparently there is a lot we don't know and a lot we need to know."
"Why don't you ask me yourself DiNozzo?" Gibbs said, walking toward his desk with a fresh cup of coffee from the DC Bean. "Afraid I'd say no?"
"Truthfully... I was afraid you would say no and then smack me in the back of the head."
"You and Kate go. McGee will stay here with me in case Abby gets more information." Tony and Kate sat at their desks, shocked. "Todd, DiNozzo, now!"
"On it boss!" Tony yelled as he and Kate rushed to the elevator.
"Mrs. Peters?" Kate asked as a young woman with sandy blonde hair answered the door. The woman nodded her head.
"I'm Agent Todd and this is Agent DiNozzo. We're from NCIS. I was wondering if we may come in and ask you a few questions?'
"Certainly," she replied, ushering them into a large, empty foyer.
"Beautiful home," Tony said, staring into the living room and dining area.
"Thank you. It was sort of a gift, from my parents. Lucas and I could barely afford the apartment we lived in. They decided to be generous," she replied, showing them into the living room. "Please sit."
"Thank you Mrs. Peters," Kate said as she took a seat beside Tony on the tan, leather couch.
"Call me Olivia."
"Okay then, Olivia, where were you when your husband was murdered? Do you remember?" Kate questioned.
"Well, I believe I was up in the honymoon suite, sleeping," Olivia said, sounding calm.
"Did you perhaps know Taylor? She was a receptionist at the hotel you were staying at."
"No, I never met her until we checked in." Olivia's voice began to crack.
"Then why was she pregnant?"
"How am I supposed to know? Like I said, I never met her."
"Are you sure because the child she was carrying was your husbands," Tony said, narrowing his eyes, giving Olivia piercing glare.
"That's not possible!" Olivia cried.
"Mrs. Peters, we are going to need a DNA sample," Kate sighed.
"Why? Am I in some kind of trouble?"
"Depends on what you consider trouble."
They watched as she fidgited in interrogation. Tears stained her cheeks and she looked so tired and worried. "Why did you want us to bring her in boss?" Tony asked Gibbs.
"The fingerprints found around Lucas when he died, they belonged to her."
"How did we get her fingerprints?"
"She gave them to us willingly, in case we needed to match them to anything she may have touched," Gibbs replied as he took the last sip from his coffee. He then threw the empty cup into the trash and entered the interrogation room.
"Mrs. Peters, I assume you know why you are here," Gibbs said as he set a file down on the table. It made a hollow thud as it hit the wood.
"Actually Agent Gibbs, I have no idea why I am here."
"As you know, Taylor was pregnant. It was your husbands."
"What do you mean was?"
"Taylor is dead."
"Is this supposed to upset me somehow? I didn't even know the woman."
"We'll find out soon enough," Gibbs said calmly as he exited the room. They had all the evidence they needed... he hoped.
