"What is this?"

Cam had taken something out of the pocket of the lumberjack that was on her examination table. It was a small plastic bag with what appeared to be sawdust inside.

Darvon Perry had been trying to prove that the company he had worked for was chopping down endangered species of trees. Did he take the sawdust as evidence? Probably.

It was sad. The guy had been trying to do the right thing. She sighed.

And her exhaled air kicked up the sawdust. Right into her eye.

"Ah! Mother..." she instinctively rubbed her eye continuing to curse.

She watched Zach walk in with her good eye.

"Will you be coming with us to the crime scene Dr. Saroyan? Agent Booth asked me to ask you."

"Yeah I'll come with you," she blinked as the dust irritated her eye.

"Are you okay, Dr. Saroyan?" he asked her.

"Yeah I'm fine. I'm absolutely groovy," she said sarcastically, her eyelid fluttering by reflex now. Zach looked confused.

"Are you sure?" he asked.

"Um, yeah, I'm sure. Just gimme a minute and I'll be ready to go, okay?" she blinked through the tears that were forming in her eye.

Zach actually took a step back.

"What's wrong?" Cam asked, trying to smile through her pain and see through her blinking eye, "I'm not going to bite you or anything."

Her eyelid fluttered again.

"WHY ARE YOU WINKING AT ME??!!"

Cam's good eye widened. What?

"I am not winking at you, Zach!" she shouted, "There's something in my eye! I can't..."

"Well!..." Zach stopped and adjusted his voice level, "You're making it difficult to correctly interpret your signal."

"IT IS NOT SIGNAL!"Cam shouted, "MY EYE IS CLOGGED WITH SEDIMENT!"

"It looks like you're winking."

"Well I'm not."

"I'm sorry."

"You better be," she winked.
