Christi walked into her dad's office and sat down just long enough to hear a knock on the door.

"What do you need, Eric?".

"Just came to check on you. I got something you might like to see."

"I'm okay, hanging on by a thread for now. Show me what you got. And Eric do me a favor and not tell anyone about what you heard me and Stetler talking about please."

"Ok" he said and handed her the file

"Thanks." She smiles and opens the file.

"LAPD has no record of Jesse ever working for them. How is that possible? He had an authentic LAPD detective's badge."

"I don't know Calleigh is still looking" Eric said

"Something's not adding up with Jesse and I'm not liking it. Eric look I need a second in command. Think you can handle it?"

"Yeah I can"

"Okay, I'll go and talk to the chief and can you go and talk to Frank and get him to put a tail on Jesse. I want his every move documented I want a wire tap on his home phone and cell phones."

"Ok" Eric said and left

Christi went and talked to the chief for a half hour then as she was heading back to her dad's office which was now hers and accidently bumps into Stetler.

"Sorry, Stetler. I didn't see you there. My mind is sucked into my dads case and trying to figure out if Cardoza is dirty which I'm pretty sure of because LAPD has no record of Jesse ever working for them." She sighs as she runs her fingers through her hair.

"I found this" Stetler said handing her a file

She opened it and looked at it and frowned.

"Okay, he's part of a gang, he's not really a cop. How the fuck did no one catch this? I need to talk to him and get more information." She said aloud to herself then looked at Stetler. Thanks. This really helps out." She said.

"No problem"

"You know we can make this work. IAB and CSI working together." She says then says, "So what we were talking about earlier what you thinking about?" she asks as they fall in step next to each other.

"If you wanted to have dinner sometime"

"Sure, what were you thinking about for then?"

"Italian"

"My favorite. And I'm sorry about Eric. He's just really protective of me sometimes a little too much like today."

"It's fine"

She smiles and nods then as they continue talking she's not paying attention as she's wrapped up in the conversation with Stetler that she didn't notice Jesse in front of her that she walks right into him.

"S….." she says then looks and sees him, "Jesse what are you doing here? I thought you were told you were under investigation and were on paid suspension until further notice and that if you came here I would put you in holding."

"I need to talk to you"

"About what? Do you want to come clean? In the last half hour I've already found out that you have NEVER worked at LAPD and that you have affiliations with a gang oh that you lied to me directly to my face about trying to help my dad. Where would like to start?" she asks giving him her fathers icy glare she learned from him.

"I'm ATF; my affiliations are there because I'm undercover with the gang that killed your father. I came to gave you information about what I have"

She looked over at Stetler and gave her a crisp nod, "I'll look into it and get back to you."

"Thanks." She says with a nod then looks at him.

"I still don't trust you and until I get a confirmation that you really are ATF I don't want you in my lab. I don't want to risk my teams safety. Now leave."

"Fine, but here's what I have on the man that did it." He said handing her a file

She sighs and takes and continues to head to her office. She sighs and sits down and rubs the back of her neck as it was killing her.

She wasn't sure of how long she had been sitting there rubbing her neck but when she felt someone move her hand and two hands replace hers she smiles.

"Thanks. It's only day one and I have knots."

"You're welcome. I got that information for you." Stetler said.

"Cool. What did you find out? Does his story line up or do I have to go and kick his ass and lock him in holding."

"It lines up"

She nods and leans into his touch.

"A little to the left please." She giggles lightly then adds, "How did you get so good at this? It feels really good."

"Lots of practice"

She smiles and cringes when he gets to a knot.
