"So," Dr. Luke Grillows said to his colleague James Arman, "this is it for today. I won't pull a double if your life depended on it."

"You're too kind." the other doctor deadpanned. "Why do you always end up like this, at this time of year? It was 3 years ago, and what I think you're going to do isn't any healthier that the doubles you pulled in the last two years!"

"Have you ever lost a brother?" James could only shake his head no. "So you don't know how much it hurts."

Then Luke took his bag and went away. "See ya."

And as he walked to the subway, he slowly desappeared.

Donald Grillows, "Donny" for his friends, stepped out of the courtroom with a dejected look on his face.

"It's not going well. At all." he said.

His second chair, Milly Sumpter, answered "Not now, but I'm sure we'll find a way to make it so. Trust me, Don."

Don shrugged and sat on a bench.

"Do you want something to eat?" Milly then asked him to raise his spirits.

"Yeah, one of those sugar-dripping, hyper-caloric, cavities-creating snacks from the vending machines." He said, then added, "But I'll go take it. You try to sleep a little, because you have big bags under your eyes, and you know cosmetic surgery's too expensive for you." in a teasing tone.

Then he walked away, desappearing from Milly's view.

3 HOURS 10 MINUTES SINCE DESAPPEARANCE

"And that was the last time you saw him?" Jack Malone asked Milly.

"Yes." she said in between tears, "He should've been back in some seconds, but he never did."

"Noticed anything strange about him? Maybe... something different from usual?" Jack asked again.

"Well, he was feeling really depressed, but it's that time of year, so I thought it was normal." Milly said, puzzling the FBI Agent.

"'That time of year'?" he asked her.

"Well, he lost a brother, a twin brother, three years ago, in the Twin Towers. And for this reason, around 9/11, he becomes Brooding Central." was the answer.

Just then Danny arrived and went to Jack.

"What's up?" Malone asked him.

"We've got another call for a case." Danny said.

"And how's that relevant to this investigation?" Jack asked, a bit annoyed by the interruption.

"The name of the Missing Person is Dr. Luke Grillows. It's Don Grillows' twin brother."

"Really?"

"Yeah," Danny says showing him a photo of Luke. "He was last seen by a colleague walking away from work, seemingly in a bad mood, at 11:35 AM,and then... poof."

"11:35 AM? Isn't it a bit early to get out of work?" Jack asked.

"Not if you went to work at 04:00 AM." was Danny's answer.

"So, twin brother, twin mood, twin hour of desappearance... that's surreal."

"Yeah, I know," interjected Danny. "What's that thing they say? 'Double, double, toil and trouble'? It sure is there."

Cut to the white board that, this time, is divided int two by a black marker line and a colour photo of Luke and Donald smiling in each other's brotherly embrace is right in the middle, putting a brother (Luke) on the left and another one (Don) on the right. On the sides of the photos there are written the numbers of the cases and their names: 7A-NY 114352, DR. LUKE GRILLOWS, and 7A-NY 114353, DONALD GRILLOWS.

Cue to credits.
