"Nick." Andy said striding over. "Bobby's nervous as hell any suggestions to calm him down."

"You any good at football?" Nick asked Rick.

"Mom and Sara will kill you if you end up with a black eye. Not to mention Heather."

"So we play tag football." Nick shrugged. "And that's what they use concealer for, or just edit the pictures, we do it all the time with murder victims to see what they looked like." Nick paused. "Sorry, Ray this is my brother Andy Stokes, Andy this is Sara's brother, Ray…"

"Milton." Ray replied.

"Milton." Nick echoed.

"Nice to meet you." Andy said.

"You too." Ray replied.

"So do you play?" Andy asked.

"I can hold my own." Ray stated.

"I'll grab the ball, you round up the guys." Andy told Nick.

"On it."

Andy went off in search of the nearest football.

"Get ready for chaos." Nick warned. "I have a large family, and they can get a little rowdy. You should see it when we all play softball."

"And Sara copes with all this?" Ray questioned.

"She was slightly anxious the first time I brought her to meet them, but my whole family love her. The kids love her. She fits right in. My parents love her and are grateful that I didn't marry a stripper."

"Wouldn't a blackjack dealer be more likely in Vegas?" Ray asked.

"They don't call it Sin City for nothing. We get to see the worst side of it."

CSI

"They're playing football." Lara-Jo said when she walked into the kitchen.

"What?" Carrie turned to her.

"They're playing touch football." Lara-Jo repeated. "Uncle Bobby was nervous, so they are playing football to distract them."

"If they end up black eyes." Erin said.

"They are all smart guys; I think they'll respond to a logical deal." Carrie crossed her arms.

"Just let us in on the terms when you get back." Maggie suggested.

"Have fun." Sara sipped her coffee.

Carrie walked out to where they were playing football. Leland tossed the ball, Carrie grabbed the ball.

"Hey honey, if you wanted to play you should have just asked." Her husband told her.

"I'm here with a friendly warning. Keep playing ball, but anyone who ends up with a black eye is spending a week on their couch, except you Ray. Nice to meet you by the way. I'm Carrie."

"Nice to meet you too." Ray responded.

"That goes double for the two of you." She pointed at Nick and Bobby. "By the way Nicky, Sara says if you do, she's taking the tickets and seeing if Greg wants to go on vacation." Carrie knew it wasn't true but she couldn't help teasing her baby brother.

"That would be interesting but she doesn't know where we're going or where the tickets are." Nick countered.

"She's a CSI she's used to finding things people don't want her too. Have fun boys." She winked at him and tossed her husband back the ball.

"Would Sara really take the tickets and go without you?" Gibson asked him.

"Depends how mad I made her. But that was probably Carrie grandstanding. Sara would probably take Catherine with her. Just avoid aiming the ball at the face."
