Nick walked into Archie's A/V lab in order to get results on the latest case.

"Hey Archie, what's happening, got those test results?"

"Nothing much, and yep, listen to this…"

Nick listened to the tape and frowned,

"That doesn't sound how it used too."

"Nope, that's because your killer distorted his voice when he rang in the murder, this is what he really sounds like."

"Interesting. I still don't get why he would ring it in though. Oh well, best be off. Cases to work, people to catch." Nick grinned.

"Hey, ahh," Archie murmured a little stepping closer to Nick, "what is the betting pool up to with the whole Grissom/ Sara/ Adam thing?"

"Pretty high, a lot of people have it in for the next couple of weeks but I got in early and put $100 on them at Cath's thing this Saturday." He whispered back smiling.

"Sly as a fox Stokes, sly as a fox. And let me guess, you will be doing all you can to get them together that day?"

"Oooh, yeah."

"Doing what?" Sara asked form the doorway walking into the room.

"Nothing." They both said simultaneously.

"Uh-ah, Stokes, what where you talking about?" she asked slowly walking up to him.

"Nothing, I swear." A little whine coming into his voice.

"Hmm, I'll bet you off this time…but if I find out you are plotting something, well, let's just say you've been warned." And with that she turned on her heel and left leaving Archie and Nick in stunned silence.

"Man, I am glad it is not me she has it in for." Archie finally stated and patted nick on the shoulder.

"Uhh, yeah, look, I better be going. Bye." And with that he harried left taking the opposite way to Sara.
