"I'll just drop the equipment back at the lab and I'll meet you at PD." Catherine told Brass.
"Take Nick with and I'll drop sign it back into the lab." Sara said.
Nick looked at her.
"That would be great." Catherine said. "But are you sure you want to head over there?"
"I want to check on how the repairs are going in DNA anyway." Sara stuffed her hands in her pockets.
"I'll help her carry this out to the Denali." Nick offered.
"I should go and tell the director that he's another cast member down."
"Good luck with that." Sara said.
"I'll meet you guys there." Brass told them.
"Are you sure you want to go into the lab?" Nick asked once they were gone.
"It's either that or go home and stare at the box until it's time to go to work. This seems more productive."
"If you need me call." Nick told her.
"Right now I need you to help me pack this stuff up."
"I can manage that."

Grissom entered the break room he had arrived three hours early to catch up on some paperwork that was stacking up on his desk and had gone to the break room to get some coffee before he got to work.
He found Sara asleep on one of the couches, with an open forensics journal which she had obviously been reading.
"Sara." Grissom woke her up.
"Grissom." Sara rubbed her eyes. "What time is it?"
"Just gone nine." He replied. "What are you doing here?"
"Waiting for the DNA results." Sara answered. "They finally fixed the problem. They tested it and now they are running our samples."
"Okay. How long have you been here?"
"A couple hours. I went and helped Nick and Catherine with fingerprinting the cast of Momma Mia. They have a suspect in custody, so I said I'd bring the equipment back while they went to PD with Brass."
"Okay. You didn't want to go home?"
"I thought I'd wait out for the results. I obviously fell asleep."
"I see." Grissom said. "Do you want some coffee?"
"That's left over from day shift." Sara pointed out. "How about I make a run to Starbucks?" She offered.
"That would good." Grissom agreed.
"I won't be long."
"Sara."
"Yes?"
"If I didn't say it before, I'm happy for you and Nick."
"Thank you. I'm sorry we didn't tell you earlier."
"Just don't let it interfere with your work and I have problem with it." Grissom stated.
"I'll go and get that coffee now."
"Thank you Sara."
"No problem."
"Coffee." Sara said when she tapped on Grissom's office door.
"Come in."
"Just how you like it." Sara handed him a cup.
"Thank you."
"Not a problem."
"They identified the woman. Her father came in and reported her missing an hour ago." Grissom stated.
"What's her name?" Sara inquired.
"Lisa Marie Preston. 25." Grissom replied. "Just transferred back here from Princeton where she was finishing up her PhD in History. The father is going over to the morgue to identify the body right now."
"At least she has a name now."
"Now we just have to put her killer behind bars."
"We have enough, but the DNA results will nail it." Sara said.
"Then we'll have our answer in a few hours."
