Sara woke to the scent of baked goods in her room. She mentally kicked herself for falling asleep with her kidnapper, possible previous killer still in the house. She sat up drawing the covers up to her neck protecting her from the man before her.

"Don't worry baby, I won't hurt you. Not the way he did. I'm sorry for before. I just got a little carried away. You're so beautiful and to still have been alone was a shock."

Sara was confused yet again. A kidnapper, feeling remorse? And why is her referring to her love life being alone as past tense? She is still alone. She has no one. But maybe in his eyes she was with him. Sara was beginning to understand how he worked. Maybe if she learned more about him she could find a way to get out alive. He walked over to her and handed her a bagel with cream cheese and a muffin that looked like blueberry. Also in the bag was a water bottle, which she went for first. She hesitated a second but knew she needed this to stay alive. He smiled as she drank making her more curious as to how he knew her. She went in for another question still keeping her distance.

"How do you know me?" His face flushed with embarrassment and anger.

"You see me everyday, Sara. How do you not know who I am?" He said forcefully.

She didn't know what to say. "I don't recognise you at all." She whispered softly.

He stood over her and raised his hand to hit her. She recoiled into herself and waited for the pain but it never came. Instead he punched the wall that was beside her making her flinch.

"You will remember!" He yelled to her face and marched out. This guy was crazy. He walked down a set of stairs and then another to the basement where there was an office in a corner. Photos of Sara, her written signature, and a top she once owned were framed all over the walls, so much so that the wall underneath was invisible. A picture frame of her smiling in a Harvard graduation picture rested on the desk next to a computer which was James' destination.

Grissom walked in his office after printing the letter, envelope, and all the pictures enclosed inside only to hear his computer dinging. He was over and saw a new e-mail message pop up titled 'patience'. Not excluding any way of finding Sara he opened and soon after thanked god he did. Another letter addressing Sara and her condition opened. This letter had a video attachment with it. After reading the letter of this guy telling Grissom this was his fault, he was losing his patience with him and Sara, and that they were never going to find them, he walked to the a/v lab to get a clearer picture. After opening his account on Archie's computer he opened the attachment. A black screen appeared and then what looked like a photo of Sara on a bed showed up. But then she started moving around on the bed looking somewhat frantic or paranoid.

"Archie! Get in here right now!" Grissom hollered from the a/v lab never taking his eyes off Sara's figure.

"Yes sir?"

"Please tell me you can find out where this live feed of Sara is coming from." He said as calmly as possible.

"I'll do my best." Archie said sympathetically knowing it would take a while and not knowing if Sara had that much time. As he sat in front of the screen decoding the crypts that the captor included so generously Catherine Willows strode in to see why her friend was pacing back and fourth.

"Gil, we are getting closer. Don't worr…"

"Catherine look!" He pointed to the screen where Sara was in a slouched position on the bed.

"Oh god. It's like déjà vu." She said reflecting back to where Nick's body was on the same screen also in grave danger. After many moments of silence Grissom walked out.

"What is everyone doing to find Sara? We havent gotten any closer so please tell me. is there anyone even working this case!"

"Grissom." Catherine pulled him back in. "Nick and Warrick are processing the house and Sara's SUV. They have found multiple prints, chloroform with Sara DNA on it. They are getting closer. Greg is digging up anything he can find on this James Monroe guy. I think we can be sure that his name is real since he is listed in AFIS. No priors though. He works in the D.A's office so Brass and I were going over there now to see if we can find anything out." She patted his shoulder with all the remorse she had knowing she wouldn't take his pain away. She walked out to catch up with Brass. Grissom turned to stay with Archie and keep his eye on Sara's saddened body even though she was not with him.
