"Sid." Danny called out as he led Lindsay into the morgue.
"We only have half the heads matched to the right bodies; we're still waiting on DNA for the others." Sid informed him.
"Yeah, that's great. Can you draw a blood sample from Lindsay we need to run a tox screen?" Danny requested.
"A tox screen?" Sid questioned. "What for?"
"It seems I can't remember anything of yesterday past about 10.30." Lindsay replied.
"Nothing?"
"I remember going down the elevator with Flack and then it's a blank."
"Not hazy?" Sid questioned.
"No. I just woke up like I have a major hangover from downing a bottle of Tequila."
"That's not good." Sid stated. "Hop up."
Lindsay sat on a stool since all the morgue tables were taken up with bodies.
"Follow my finger." Sid instructed. "Your pupils are a little dilated."
"My head is pounding, the aspirin isn't working." Lindsay stated.
"You don't remember anything at all?" Sid asked as he felt her head for any lumps or bumps which would indicate she had amnesia from a concussion.
"No." Lindsay replied.
"Do you know where she was last night?" Sid asked Danny.
"She worked seven scenes yesterday; she got back before the rest of us because we were all out processing the area each body or head was found in. She was asleep on a table, so when Mac told us all to call it a night I woke her up, told her I was taking her home."
"Did she seem coherent?" Sid asked.
"She was half asleep, she mentioned something about Adam."
"He's been bring down the DNA reports all night." Sid stated. "Perhaps you should find out if she talked to him. This will only be a slight scratch." He drew blood from her. "If the tox-report comes up negative, I want you to take her to the hospital. Amnesia is not something to mess around with."
"Okay." Danny replied.

Danny left Lindsay on the couch in Mac's office while he went in search of Adam but he ran into Mac.
"What happened to not getting here before nine?" Mac asked.
"Lindsay lost 20 hours." Danny replied.
"What?"
"She woke up this morning with what she describes as a major hangover headache and doesn't remember anything since she was going to China Town yesterday with Flack."
"Nothing?"
"No. She doesn't remember actually being any scenes yesterday, how she got back to the lab or the fact that I took her home last night. None of it."
"Sounds like she was dosed with Rohypnol." Mac said.
"That's what I was thinking, but that works in about 20 minutes."
"She could have inhaled a minimal amount, which could have taken a while to kick in."
"I had Sid draw some blood they are rushing it through tox now."
"Where is she?" Mac asked.
"On your couch wishing someone would shoot her and put her out of her misery." Danny replied. "I'm trying to find Adam if he's still here."
"Why?"
"She mentioned something about him last night before we went home; I was hoping she might have talked to him so he could shed some light on it." Danny stated.
"I'll go and talk to Lindsay; you find Adam and let me know when they get her tox report back."
"They've matched about half the heads to the right bodies, and the tox reports are all still pending. They were backed up before we gave them fourteen more to do. They jumped Lindsay to the front of the queue."
"Good."
Danny finally tracked Adam as he was coming out of DNA.
"Hey Danny, we have another head and body to go together."
"That's good." Danny said. "But that wasn't why I was looking for you. Did you talk to Lindsay last night or early this morning I guess."
"Sure. She was getting coffee when I went to get some."
"How did she seem to you?"
"Tired, but it had been a long day. She was wondering why someone would cut the heads off fourteen bodies and dump the parts separately all over Manhattan. I told her that she was supposed to figure out and I'd stick to DNA."
"She didn't seem strange or out of it in anyway?" Danny asked.
"No. Why?"
"Because she doesn't remember yesterday. We think she may have got dosed with Rohypnol somewhere along the line. We're still waiting for the tox report."
"Rohypnol? Is she okay?"
"Other than a major headache and missing some time she's fine." Danny replied.
"She didn't seem like she'd taken anything." Adam told him.
"Okay thanks."
