"This way." Sara said when they reached the parking lot.

"Your Denali is that way." Warrick stated.

"But we're taking Nick's today, which is why he wants me to fill the tank up."

"Why exactly?"

"Because I finally got him to change station in mine to something other than the country station it was stuck on, but now it's stuck on station that plays songs from musicals. I'm not driving it, especially out to Lake Mead."

"I can understand that. How did you get him to trade keys with you?"

"I asked." Sara replied.

"You mean you threatened to withhold sex unless he gave you his keys."

"No. You should never use sex as a bargaining chip even in arguments." Sara stated. "I stated my case and asked him to hand over his keys and he did."

"I see."

"Although I'm still not sure he's quite one hundred percent forgiven you for turning up when you did yesterday."

"Why?" Sara gave him a look. "Oh. You should have just thrown me out."

"You really think Nick would ask you to leave so he could get some?"

"I would." Warrick said.

"Well that's you Warrick. Given Nick has five sisters and who his parents are he got taught slightly more manners."

"And I'm surprised to hear you use the term 'get some'."

"I'm happy." Sara shrugged.

"I guess that's a result of getting some."

"Do you want to walk?" Sara asked.

"Okay would you like me to use another term?"

"Perhaps we should just drop the whole topic of my sex life."

"Why the subject was just getting interesting?"

"You're as bad as Catherine." Sara sighed.

"Catherine asked about your sex life?"

"Apparently she needs to live vicariously at the moment." Sara replied. "And we need to change subject."

"So Nicky." Catherine said.

"Why do I sense an interrogation coming?" Nick asked.

"Because Sara has no family to interrogate you so we're looking out for her."

"You know I already got this from Warrick."

"I know. Who do you think sent him over?"

"And who is looking out for my best interests?" Nick inquired.

"You're a big boy now; I think you can look after yourself."

"So can Sara."

"I know but its fun to interrogate you about your intentions. It will be good practice for when Lindsay starts bring boyfriends home."

"Just tell them that you know every cop in town and that they are more than happy to watch their every move and if they put one foot out of place you'll know about it." Nick told her.

"Sounds like you've heard that before."

"I have five sisters and with my parents being a judge and a public defender they do know at least every cop in three counties."

"Right."

"And my father was cleaning his shot gun on more than one occasion when my sisters' dates would come by to pick them up. He actually scared on of my sister's husbands so much that he couldn't form coherent sentences around him for the first five years they were married." Nick recalled.

"Maybe I should give a call and see if he can give me some tips."

"You be fine Catherine, and Warrick and I will back you up if needs be. And if that doesn't work we'll send in Greg I'm sure he can explain something."

"It wouldn't help. Lindsay has a slight crush on him."

"I wouldn't mention that to Greg." Nick suggested.

"I'm not planning on it." She paused. "How did we get on to the topic of Lindsay?"

"I'm quickly learning to divert the topic when Sara brings up the subject of cleaning."

"I'm sure she has a good reason for it."

"She made me have my carpets cleaned."

"Have you ever had your carpets cleaned?" Catherine asked.

"No. But…"

"Then it was probably a good idea. Just be grateful she hasn't gone over it with her kit."
