We pull up to Escala and there are fire engines and police cars everywhere, all with their lights still flashing. Shit. The fucking playroom. Welch may be able to deflect Seattle's Finest from the second floor, but nothing and no one will deter the fire department. I order the boss to stay in the fucking car and for Armstrong to drive until they hear from me. I see the fear in Grey's eyes and hope I am not too late. I grab the folder with blank NDA's from the glove box and jump out of the car. I pray they have an elevator running. I sigh with relief, show my ID to the cop and head up. I get off to utter chaos. There are uniforms everywhere. Seattle PD, Seattle FD, Escala building security and suits from Grey security.

I push my way through the crowd and see Welch in the corner of the kitchen talking to a police lieutenant. I ignore them and head for the stairs. I see Barney and Sullivan arguing with a group of firemen, one of which is holding an ax. I am in time, thank God.

I make my way forward and Sullivan immediately defers to me. I confront the captain and ask what seems to be the problem. He explains he needs access to this locked room and if he doesn't have it in thirty seconds, one of his men will break it down with an ax. I know he is not bluffing and I'm amazed that Sullivan has kept him out this long. I ask for a moment in private with him, and pull out my key ring, letting him know I will open the door.

I assure him I will show him the room, but explain it is a private, personal room and I need him to sign an NDA in return I can offer him a large cash donation to his favorite charity. He wants to know how large and I tell him twenty five thousand. I assure him there is nothing illegal in the room, but my boss would like an old preference for kink not to become public knowledge. He signs the NDA and orders his men to wait at the other end of the corridor. Inside the playroom he says nothing. He has a couple of gauges he takes readings from looks around once more and exits. I re-lock the door and we head downstairs to Grey's study. His men follow. He orders his men to clear the elevators as there is no sign of any type of fire. The rest stand around the hallway. Once in the study, I shut the door, and open the safe. I take out fifty thousand. I hand him twenty five thousand first with a smile and announce its for his favorite charity. Then I offer him fifteen thousand to be distributed to his men who came do quickly and dashed up twenty flights of stairs. Lastly, I offer ten thousand to the Seattle's Bravest Charity.

We shake hands and he assures me his report will describe the room as a storage room with old furniture in it. We shake hands and he leaves. Barney and Sullivan come rushing over. I slap them both on the back and tell they did a good job and now please tell me what the fuck happened. I hear what they tell me, but I can't quite comprehend how it happened. I look to see if Welch has gotten rid of the police yet, and it looks like he's escorting them out. Thank fuck.

My phone pings with a text and I look down expecting to see Grey's name but am startled instead to see Sawyers name. My insides tense as I answer the phone.

"T - it's Ana. They think she's waking up. "

"Who's there?"

"Just me."

"Who's expected? Whose names are on the old visitor logs? When does her dad usually come?"

"T nobody but Dr Grace has been here. Elliot and Kate were here a few days ago but I don't see her father ever visiting her."

I have a really bad feeling. "Luke, find out who we notified and who the hospital notified and get back to me."

Fuck. All I can think of is please don't let me be the one who has to tell the boss Ray Steele doesn't know his daughters been in a come for two weeks. I go to Barney and ask him to get me a location on Ray Steele and a phone dump with all his incoming calls since Ana has been hospitalized and explain he may not have ever been notified of his daughter's injury. Barney's eyes are like saucers. He immediately starts tapping away.

I go back to Sullivan and tell him to call building services and get someone here to suck up all the water and replace the carpeting in the Great Room and out to the front door. What hasn't been flooded is full of blood stains. Then he needs to call our alarm people and locksmiths. Every lock and alarm are to be replaced, every single one. All codes are to be changed. I see Welch in the doorway and ask Sullivan to give us a moment.

Without saying a word, Welch drops half a dozen audio bugs on my desk. They're in a plastic baggie filled with water. He sweeps the room with a small detector and finds a half dozen more. I am fucking furious. How the fuck did this happen? This absolutely screams of inside help. Did Reynolds do this?

Welch wants to know if I want to break it to the boss. Its not even funny. I tell him I have my own shit to share and we will both be lucky if we are still employed in another hour. Then I procede to tell him I don't think we ever notified Ray Steele that his daughter was in the hospital. Welch's eyes get big and he pales noticeably. We are so fucked.

Just then we get word from downstairs, the boss is on his way up. I look at Welch and tell him to stall him and then race upstairs to Barney. I pray all the way there that Ray has been on a month long fishing trip and out of cell range.

"Barney," I plead, "Tell me you found something. "

Barney shakes his head sadly. "Mr Steele has been at his home or business for the last month. There have been no calls placed by us or the hospital."

My heart sinks. Grey might be able to overlook a lot but not this. I am so fired. Just then I hear him roar my name. I stiffen my back and head for the stairs.
