Room of Krystalle DeMorris
First Presbyterian Hospital
May 25, 2005
Detective Goren looked around the bare room and at the patient lying in the bed. Krystalle was drinking a glass of water and looking at them.
"Did you catch her?" she asked, looking from one detective to the other. Detective Eames frowned. "The woman who did this? The one who killed my Allan." she said.
"Are you sure it was a woman?" Detective Eames asked. Krystalle shook her head.
"Uh-nobody sent flowers?" Goren asked, still poking into corners as though there would be a bouquet of flowers in the corner. Krystalle shook her head, sipping her water.
"On the night you were attacked, did you have a fight with Mr. Sloane?" Eames asked, pulling out her notebook.
"No, we went out to dinner then we went back to his apartment, and then I left around 1." she said. "He was nervous, all through dinner." she said.
"Were you aware that he was seeing your cousin, Catherine? That they were engaged?" Eames asked. Krystalle's eyes widened.
"Oh...I had no idea." she said, putting her hand to her mouth. Goren was watching her closely.
"What resturaunt did you two go to?"
"Uh, The K Bistro on Main." Krystalle said. Eames nodded. Bobby frowned and opened his mouth.
"Have you had cosmetic surgery recently?" he asked. Krystalle's gaze flew to him. "I-uh-noticedthat you look different than your christmas picture."
"There was an accident at home, I needed reconstructive surgery." Krystalle said, flushing. "The doctor made it so that I looked more like the rest of my family." she explained to Eames, who nodded and looked at Goren. He was still frowning.

"Are those the medical and police records I asked for?" Goren asked, motioning to a stack of papers and folders on his partner's desk. Eames handed them to him.
"What is it?" she asked as his flipped through the folders. Goren shook his head but was silent for a moment as he sifted through the papers.
"Here-look, no accident reports prior to the cosmetic surgery." he said. "She got that on her own...to look more like the family?" he asked, looking skeptical. Eames frowned. "You saw the christmas picture, she doesnt look like either of her parents now." Eames was nodding.
K Bistro
3 Main Street
May 25, 2005
The K Bistro was a high class joint for the rich and idle. A waiter led the detectives to the very table where Mr.Sloane and Miss. DeMorris had been seated. The detectives sat down at the table.
"What were they like?" Goren asked, "You know, was it first-date behavior or was it engagement night?" the waiter frowned.
"She was really frisky," he said. "She kept touching his hands and laughing. But he was nervous, he was like 'we need to talk' and she would tell him 'later later' and then they got into, like, a little argument."
"Argument?" Eames asked, looking at Goren with that "Caught-her-in-a-lie" look. He nodded.
"He wanted to break up with her, said that it wasn't fair to Kate, that he loved her, something like that, and she was all like,'then leave her' and 'dont you love me?'" the waiter shrugged. "Then she was like, 'we'll talk about it later'."
