"Hey Nick take a look." Sara whispered to Nick.
"Who knew Grissom could badly attempt dancing."
"I'd say Catherine had something to do with that." Sara suggested with a smile.
"Should we feel sorry for her?" Nick inquired.
"Depends."
"On what?"
"Is there any spinning involved in this dance?"
"I think that can be arranged." Nick spun her causing Sara to giggle.
"You know you're not bad at this." Sara commented.
"Why shucks ma'am, you say the nicest things." Nick drawled.
"I knew your accent was a lot stronger when you tried."
"You should hear it in Texas." He winked at her.
"Just out of curiosity do you have a cowboy hat?"
"At my parents place." Nick replied. "You need something to keep the sun out of your eyes, and what respectable cowboy doesn't have a Stetson and a horse."
"Now that's some to imagine."
"You'd love Texas."
"I grew up in California."
"You'd still love it." Nick told her.

"If I could have your attention." Brass said tapping his glass as he stood. "I thought someone should say a few words, and since not all of us have the night off."
"Is it just me or does he sound jealous?" Catherine whispered to Warrick.
"It's not you." Warrick confirmed.
"That may as well be me." Brass stated. "Nick, Sara, I'm sure we all want to wish the best of luck and congratulations."
"And to complain you didn't tell us earlier." Warrick remarked.
"And the fact that you made us guess." Greg added.
"I think they were trying to say we were a little surprise that you were suddenly engaged when we didn't know you were dating." Brass continued. "But we're all very happy for you. So if everyone would raise a glass. To Nick and Sara."
"Nick and Sara." Everyone echoed.
"Nick." Grissom cornered him later.
"Hey Gris."
"That information you asked for." Grissom handed him an envelope. "The end of the month would be best."
"Thanks Gris."
"Warrick." Catherine stated as grabbed his wallet from his pocket.
"Hey Brass want to arrest her for pick pocketing?"
"Not enough evidence, you know how questionable eye witness testimony is."
Catherine pulled $40 out of the wallet and handed it back to him. She stuffed $20 into her bra and then walked over and hand the other to Greg.
"Thanks Catherine." Greg took the money.
"Just making sure he pays up."
"What was all that about?" Brass inquired.
"I bet Greg $20 that he wouldn't ask Grissom how to measure the length of a goldfish's memory and Catherine $20 that she couldn't get Grissom to dance."
"I see."
"Nick's nieces sent him and Sara a goldfish as an engagement present and we having a discussion earlier." Warrick explained.
