3 days earlier

- 3 days earlier, Anne Hennessy was out at a night club with a good friend, dancing and knocking a few back. The last song was at 1am in the morning. The last song was 'Money

Maker' by Ludacris.

Anne Hennessy was driving back to her home in the suburbs of Las Vegas, after she had sobered up from her fun night. She was driving on interstate highway 96.
It was 3:56am. She was listening to the song

'Money Maker' again, and decided she had finally liked it. Though even though she liked it, she didn't know that that would ever be the last song she ever heard alive. She had

pulled into her driveway at 3:59am. She parked in her garage, shut the vehicle off, got out, and slipped into death as soon as she was shot in the chest.

-Present time- -Crime Scene-

As Grissom, Catherine, Nick, Warrick, and Greg they walked up to Brass and David. "Well, we got a brunet, between the age of 35 and 36. Name is Anne Hennessy." Brass said.

"Time of Death was around 4am. She took a shot to the chest. I would think that must've killed her instantly. We'll confirm that though when we get an autopsy done on her."

David told them.

"Thanks David." Grissom said.

"Yeah." David said.

Grissom, Catherine, Nick, Warrick, and Greg starts to look for evidence, take the pictures needed of the victim, and everything else

"Hey Griss, where's Sara? It's not like her to be late." Nick asked as he approached Grissom.

"I tried to call her, but I got her voice mail." Grissom told Nick.

Sara arrives at the same time, receiving stares from the team.

"Hey guys, sorry I'm late. I ran into something and well, yeah. You get the picture." Sara told them.

Grissom can smell her breath, and he smells alcohol on her breath. Sara starts to find evidence. While Sara is looking for evidence, she starts sucking on cough drops. 25

minutes later, Grissom meets up with Sara, and sees she's still sucking on cough drops.

"Sara, are you ok?" Grissom asked her.

Sara acts a little worried that he might have smelled the alcohol on her breath, but she answers him any way. "Yeah, I'm fine. Why?"

"Well, you've been sucking on cough drops for the whole time since you got here. Are you getting a cold?" Grissom said.

"I think. I haven't been feeling myself lately, that's all." Sara told him while lying to him.

"You need some time off?" Grissom asked while playing along with her game.

"No Griss, I can handle it." She told him.

"Ok, just tell me when you need some time off." Grissom said as he was thinking of something suspicious was going on with her.

"Griss, I'm fine. I'll be fine. It's just I need to do my job, before I get sidetracked."

"Ok." Grissom said as he goes outside and puts the bagged evidence in his vehicle.

Warrick Comes over to Grissom, "Yo, Griss. What's up with Sara? She doesn't look right. She looks like she's hiding something."

"I don't know Warrick. I think she's defiantly hiding something though." Grissom told him.

"You want me to talk to her?"

"Well, I need to talk to her about something anyway. So, I can do it. Thanks though."

"Anytime, we're all together on this. We just stick with each other till we all feel good."

"I like the determination you have Warrick."

"Thanks. I just wished Sara wasn't so stubborn."

"Don't we all?"

"Did you see she was popping cough drops?"

"Yeah, she said she hasn't been feeling great lately."

"Well, she's hiding something."

"Well, I'll figure it out one way or another."

"Yeah, just make her 'cough' up to all of it."

"Yeah."

Catherine, Nick and Warrick leave to go to the lab, and Grissom and Sara are left. As Sara comes out she walks up to Grissom and asks, "Everyone leave already?"

"Yeah, they went ahead to the lab to drop evidence off to Greg." Grissom told her.

"Oh." Sara said as she was putting evidence in her vehicle. "Hey, I'll be back. I want to check something out."

"You want me to come with?" Grissom asks her.

"No. Go ahead and go if you want. I'll catch a ride with Brass if you want to go ahead."

"No, that's ok."

"Ok, well, give me about 3 minutes. Ok?"

"Ok."

Sara looks around the back perimeter where the previous CSI's had missed. She has been gone for about 5 minutes, and Grissom starts to get worried.

"Sara! Sara, where are you?!" Grissom yelled as he was searching for her.

When Grissom doesn't get a reply from Sara, and tells Brass to stay with Sara's vehicle. Grissom goes to the back perimeter to look for Sara. Sara is backing up to see something

better, and Grissom knocks into her. Sara yells with surprise, turns around and jumps. "Grissom?"

"Sara, you said 3 minutes. You've been gone for like 5."

"I'm just 2 minutes shy, and you start a frantic search for me? I'm ok. You gave me quite a scare."

"Sorry. You find anything?"

"Nope. No signs of anything back here. Of course, its in the middle of the night, so I can barely see anything. So, go figure."

"You ready?"

"Yeah," Sara said as she was yawning.

"Tired?"

"Not really. Just my body telling me I am. But, the mind has the most important affect on all of it."

"Yeah, well, sometimes you should listen to your body, because your mind basically has a different body and mind of its own."

"I guess you could say that."
Grissom and Sara made their way up to the front of the house, to meet Brass.

"Find anything on the victim?" Sara asked Brass.

"She was had come home from a bar about an hour before her death." Brass said.

"What is the T.O.D?" Sara asked.

"About 2 hours ago."

"Where was she at?"

"Um, the bar we always pass by on the way to the lab."

"The Tangiers."

"Wow, your good with names."

"Not really. I just don't pay attention to what's on the way to the lab. I'm mainly focused on what's in front of me and behind me. You know."

"Yeah," Brass said as he was thinking something is suspicious, looks at Grissom when Sara gets in the driver's seat of her Tahoe. "Gil, what's up with her? She's avoiding

something."

"Jim, she's hiding something. Warrick and I have a hunch about it."

"Oh, let me know about it."

"I will. I better go."

"Yeah, I'm going too."

Brass and Grissom parts their ways, Grissom gets in the vehicle with Sara. Grissom stares at Sara, Sara stares back at Grissom, "What? Why are you staring at me for? I haven't

done anything wrong have I? I was just looking over the back perimeter. That's all."

"No, you haven't done anything wrong."

"Ok, so what's with all the stares?"

"Do you want to talk to me about something?"

"No. Why?"

"Something just seems off."

"I'm fine Griss, truly, everything is ok. So, what seems off?"

"Something looks like its bothering you."

"Nope. Nothing is bothering me."

"You should take vacation time. You've got about what, 15 weeks saved up?"

"Griss, I'm fine. I don't need a vacation. I just need to do my work. Like I said earlier."

"Have you found a diversion yet?"

"Diversion?" Sara asked confused because she has forgotten their last conversation.

"Don't tell me you forgot. Remember our last conversation?"

"Our-? Oh, yes! I remember now. Sorry. A lot has been on my mind lately. Sorry."

"You want to get those things off your mind?"

"Oh, there not there anymore."

Lying, and Grissom knows it. "Sure?"

"Yeah." She told him but she lied to him again to answer his previous question about her diversion. "Um, no, I haven't found a diversion yet. I just wouldn't know where to find

one. Besides, I need to concentrate on my work and everything else."

"You should at least find something out of work to do. Sara, if you spend all your time on your work and not on yourself, you'll burn out soon enough."

"Grissom, I'm ok. I think I'm far from a burn out trust me. I would have felt it long time ago."

"People don't feel burn outs until its too late. Sara, don't wait until its too late."

"Ok. I'll try." Sara tells him then tries to change the subject. "So, the victim was at the Tangiers before her death. This has been like the, what, fourth victim?"

"Yeah."

"Same motives, same scenes, the women have the same similarities of each other. Just how far will this guy go to kill?"

"I guess until we catch him."

"It better be soon. Cause their families need closure and the women needs justice. -Sees the bar she had come from before arriving at the scene- That must be the Tangiers."

"Yeah." Grissom says while thinking she was there earlier.
