Sasha looked in the direction from which the light from the flashlight was coming, but she wasn't afraid when she saw who it was.
"Edgar?"
"Ms. Nash what are you doing here?"
"I wanted to show Shawn The Lily Vallery painting," Sasha said.
"Ms. Nash, it's very irresponsible of you," Edgar said.
"Relax Edgar, it's not the first time someone's taken a sneak preview here," Sasha said.
"Ms. Nash I would ask you and your guest to leave this room as soon as possible," Edgar said.
"Okay," Sasha said, she and Shawn started to leave the room.
"Who is that guy?" Shawn asked.
"Edward Brooks he's the museum curator," Sasha explained
"Is he always so stressed?" Shawn asked.
"Sometimes he is much worse, he is afraid that something will break and then museum will have to pay for it," Sahsa said.
"Okay," Shawn said. "Do you want to go back to the gala?"
"Sure," Sasha said.
Shawn and Sasha walked back to the gala hall but were stopped by Lassiter and Juliet.
"What are you guys doing here? Shawn asked.
"Looking for you, where were you?" Juliet asked.
"We were...," Shawn began.
"Spencer how dare you leave and go hook up," Lassiter said.
"Lassie we weren't planning on doing that at all," Shawn said.
"It's my fault. I wanted to show Shawn something," Sasha said.
"You have to stay in our sight, Sasha," Juliet said.
"I was with Shawn," Sashsa said.
"Okay this party's over for you guys, we're going back to the station," Lassiter said.
"Why is your first thought that we're gonna hook up?" Shawn asked.
"Get to the van," Lassiter orderd.
Shawn and Sasha walked with Lassiter and Juliet back to the van and headed back to the museum.
After getting another lecture from Lassiter, Shawn stood at the candy machine. Gus walked into the station and headed toward Shawn.
"Dude where were you?" Shawn asked his best friend.
"I was still at the museum, the gala wasn't over," Gus said.
"Why didn't you ride with us?" Shawn asked.
"I knew you guys were leaving," Gus replied.
"Sorry, we forgot to tell you, but everything happened so fast," Shawn said.
"Was there another attempt on Sasha's life?"
"No."
"So I actually stood around serving food and drinks for nothing," Gus said.
"Sorry, man, Shawn said. Did you get any of the pigs in a blanket?"
"No, those people at the gala ate them all," Gus said.
"They must have been really hungry," Shawn said.
"Me too now, I didn't get to eat anything there," Gus said, he took the bag of chips out of Shawn's hand. "I'll take this."
Gus opened the bag of chips and began to eat. Shawn took another bag from the vending machine.
"Where did you and Sasha go?" Gus asked.
"She wanted to show me something," Shawn said.
"A room where you guys could hook up?" Gus asked.
"No," Shawn said. "Why is that everyone's first thought?"
"She's interested in you and you're interested in her, it's not such a crazy thought," Gus said.
"We didn't leave the gala to hook up, she wanted to show me the painting," Shawn said.
"And that was all?" Gus asked.
"That was all, we didn't even get the chance because we got caught by the museum curator," Shawn asked. "Did you see anything suspicious?"
"No, I didn't see anything suspicious, no one going after you and Sasha or no one specifically asking where Sasha was," Gus said.
"The killer wasn't at the paryt then," Shawn said.
"I don't think so," Gus said. "Where is Sasha?"
Shawn had gone to the conference room. "She wanted to be alone right now."
"And where are Lassie and Juliet?"
"They're reviewing all the images from your glasses," Shawn said. "Let's go see them."
Shawn and Gus walked to the room where Lassiter and Juliet were sitting.
"Hey."
"Hi."
"What's going on here?"
"We're looking at all the images of Guster's glasses right now," Lassiter said.
"Checking everyone who was there to see if they're on the guest list," Juliet said.
"That seems like a lot of work," Shawn said.
"It is, Juliet said. Shawn are you getting anything?"
"Sorry Jules, but these images are keeping me from getting psychic images, I have to be close to those people to get any readings," Shawn said.
"Are you going to interview all these people later?" Gus asked.
"We have little choice Guster, since we cannot find any motive why anyone would want to kill Ms. Nash," Lassiter said.
"This is the only thing we can do for Sasha in the meantime," Juliet said.
"And let's hope she doesn't get killed in the meantime," Lassiter said.
"Carlton," Juliet said.
"Sorry," Lassiter said.
"Gus and I will be going, call us if you need us," Shawn said.
"Okay, I will," Juliet said.
Shawn and Gus left the room. Gus headed toward the dressing rooms to change. Shawn saw Sasha sitting on the bench and sat down next to her.
"How are you?" Shawn asked.
"I'm kind of tired," Sasha said.
"How about I ask one of the officers to take you to your hotel?" Shawn suggested.
"No, I'll stay here again, I'll feel safer," Sasha said.
"Okay, here is a tip if you stay here overnight take the couch in the where they do the psych evaluation, which is excellent for naps," Shawn said.
"Thanks for the tip," Sasha said.
Shawn nodded his head. Gus had changed into his own clothes and he and Shawn left the station and returned to the Psych office.
The next day. Shawn and Gus arrived at the station. Lassiter and Juliet were busy making phone calls.
"Jules how are things going here?" Shawn asked.
"As you can see Shawn we are very busy," Juliet said.
Sasha walked up to Juliet's desk. "Hey is it okay if I go back to my hotel?"
"Why?"
"I would really like to take a shower and change my clothes," Sasha said.
"I don't know if that's such a good idea," Juliet said.
"Send an officer with me, I don't mind if he will be in the bathroom when I take the shower," Sasha said.
"Okay," Juliet said. "Officer Reed."
"Yes, Detective O'Hara," Officer Reed said.
"Take Ms. Nash to her hotel, when you get there check that the room is secure and stay in there when she's in the bathroom," Juliet said.
"You got it, Detective," officer said.
Sasha walked out of the station with Officer Reed. Juliet resumed making phone calls.
A few hours later. Juliet finished making another phone call, Shawn and Gus walked over to her and gave her and cup of tea and a sandwich.
"Thank you guys, I could use this right now," Juliet said.
"Any leads?" Gus asked.
"Not really and we can't question them because they're not officially considered suspects," Juliet said.
"So we still got nothing?" Shawn asked.
"I hate that I've to say yes to that," Juliet said.
Lassiter walked over to Juliet's desk.
Carlton have you made any progress," Juliet said, but she saw that there was something going on. "What is it?"
"O'Hara, I have received some bad news," Lassiter said.
"What is it? Has something happened to Sasha?" Juliet asked.
"She and Officer Reed were on their way to the hotel when a car crashed into them," Lassiter told his partner.
"Is Sasha okay?"
"O'Ha... Juliet I'm so sorry to have to tell you this, but your friend was killed."
