CSI:Miami Road Trip #11: We Ain't Comin' Home

Thanks so much for the reviews!

I get the feeling the Finch family needs a collective group hug and Eric is getting crazier.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Miami Crime Lab, Reception, 7pm

Tom: *signing paper*

Elevator doors open

Amy: *steps off elevator, looks at Tom*

Tom: *hands over paper*

Cop: *grabs paper* Have a good evening, Detective.

Tom: Thanks. *turns around, walks over to elevator*

Amy: *runs, presses button*

Tom: *looks at Amy*

Amy: Got off on the wrong floor.

Tom: What are you looking for? Maybe I can help.

Amy: *smiles* I was looking for um...the person in charge?

Tom: Lieutenant Caine's not here. You can reach him on his cell though, I think reception has th-

Amy: No, it's okay. It's not an emergency or anything. *steps into elevator*

Tom: *walks in*

Amy: *presses button*

Tom: *staring at door*

Amy: *extends hand* Amy Walker.

Tom: I'm not interested.

Amy: *lifts brow* ...Okay. *lowers hand*

Tom: *looks at watch*

Amy: You late for something?

Tom: Yeah, a date with my television.

Amy: Must be an exciting television. Does it do any special favours or does that come separate?

Tom: *looks at Amy* ...What did you say your name was?

Amy: *smiles* Amy Walker. *extends hand*

Tom: *grabs Amy's hand* Tom Carter. *stares at Amy's hand*

Amy: *lifts brow* Something wrong?

Tom: *blinks* No. *lets go* Nice to meet you.

Amy: *stares at Tom*

Tom: *looks at door*

Elevator doors open

Tom: *steps off*

Amy: *follows* Maybe you'd prefer a date of the human kind.

Tom: Sorry, I don't date.

Amy: Why not?

Tom: I don't enjoy paying for other people's meals.

Amy: *laughs* Okay, I'll pay for mine.

Tom: *stops* You've known me 5 minutes and you want to go out with me? For all you know, I could be some rapist serial killer.

Amy: *shrugs* My chance to take. At the very least, you'll have some company before you go on your rapist killing spree.

Tom: *narrows eyes* ...I pick the place.

Amy: Sure.

Sports bar, booth

Amy: *downs beer*

Tom: *looks at Amy*

Amy: You're not having any?

Tom: I don't drink anymore.

Amy: *smirks* Is that because of health reasons or are you just tired of doing embarassing things?

Tom: Maybe a bit of both.

Amy: I see. Well, you know there's nothing wrong with a couple beers here and there. *hands over beer*

Tom: *takes beer* I guess you're right.

Amy: So besides me, when's the last time you had a date?

Tom: A friend of mine came over to watch movies the other night but besides that, I'd say probably...a year or two ago?

Amy: ...You're not sure?

Tom: It's complicated.

Amy: Tell me about it.

Tom: Why?

Amy: I'm interested.

Tom: I don't see why my social life is so interesting.

Amy: *touches Tom's shirt* What's this scar from?

Tom: *grabs Amy's hand* Look. I don't know you so why don't you back off a little.

Amy: *lifts eyes*

Tom: *lets go*

Amy: *sits up* I'm sorry. I can be a little too forward sometimes.

Tom: I'd like to go home now. *stands, walks away*

Amy: Whoa, wait! *runs*

Outside

Amy: *pushes door* We've only been here a half hour. At least show me the decency of sticking around to the end, even if you're having a bad time. It's called being polite.

Tom: *pulls out keys, walking*

Amy: *follows* Are you at least going to give me a ride back to the crime lab so I can get my car?

Tom: Take a bus.

Amy: I don't have cash.

Tom: Plenty of streetcorners around.

Amy: *frowns, opens car door* You're driving me back to the crime lab. *gets into car, shuts door*

Tom: This is why I prefer to spend my time with inanimate objects. *opens car door*

Rain starts to pour

Inside car, road

Amy: *staring at Tom*

Tom: Stop it. *turns wheel*

Amy: I don't see why you don't date. You've got nothing to be afraid of.

Tom: Really.

Amy: Yeah. You're an attractive guy, I know there's a sense of humour down there somewhere and I'm sure you're a lot of fun to be around once you get comfortable.

Tom: *turns on radio*

Classic rock blares through the speakers

Amy: *covers ears* What are you doing!

Tom: *smiles, turns up radio*

Amy: Agh!

Tom: Much better!

Amy: *closes eye* How is this better!

Tom: *slams on gas*

Amy: *screams, grabs door*

Tom: *presses button*

Windows lower

Amy: AH! Tom! *wiping forehead* I'm getting wet!

Tom: Exactly! It's refreshing!

Amy: *looks at Tom* Are you crazy?!

Tom: *laughs* Aw come on, I thought you said I'd be fun!

Amy: This isn't funny! Unlock my window!

Miami Crime Lab, parkinglot

Tom: *turns key, leans back on seat*

Amy: *wrings out hair* I can't believe you did that.

Tom: I like rain. Not only is it refreshing but it's purifying too.

Amy: Purifying, huh. What exactly do you need purified? *squeezes corner of shirt*

Tom: I think there might be a towel in the lab if you want to dry off before going home.

Amy: No, it's fine. My hotel's not far from here. Besides, I suppose it was kind of refreshing. *smiles*

Tom: *smirks*

Amy: Thanks for indulging me. I had fun.

Tom: *nods*

Amy: Would I be too forward if I gave you an amicable peck on the cheek? Or are you going to set me on fire with the cigarette lighter?

Tom: *smiles*

Amy: *leans over, kisses Tom's cheek*

Tom: *smile fades*

Amy: *pulls back*

Tom: Wait.

Amy: *lifts eyes*

Tom: *staring at Amy*

Amy: ...What is it?

Tom: *shakes head* ...Nevermind. You should get back to your hotel.

Amy: No. You need to know why I'm here. Tom, we know each other.

Tom: Excuse me?

Amy: *reaches into pocket, pulls out ring* You gave this ring to me.

Tom: *looks down at ring*

Amy: You asked me to marry you.

Tom: *lifts eyes*

Amy: Those feelings you've been getting all night? Trust them. Maybe your brain's re-wiring itself.

Tom: Wait, hold on a second. What? What the hell are you talking about? I married you?

Amy: Not exactly. I left.

Tom: *rubs eyes* Alright, let me get this straight. We know each other.

Amy: Yes.

Tom: And you couldn't just tell me we knew each other, you had to lie to me and drag me out on this bogus date?

Amy: I didn't know how you'd react. And Scott said it was a bad ide-

Tom: You know Scott?

Amy: Um, yeah. That's how we met. Through him.

Tom: Why did you leave me?

Amy: Maybe we should just slow this down a tad.

Tom: Oh my God. *places hand on forehead* That uh, that bedroom. That child's bedroom in my house. We had a child?

Amy: Again, not exactly. Look, there's plenty of time to talk about this. I don't want to overload your head or anything.

Tom: *staring at dashboard*

Amy: Are you okay?

Tom: Would you be?

Amy: I don't know, it's never happened to me before. I remember everything. Even lisence plates I've seen in the last 10 years -- there was this one in Tampa and it st-

Tom: Amy.

Amy: Yes.

Tom: Stop.

Amy: Okay.

Thanks so much for the reviews.

Hummerhome, bedroom, 1am

Anni: *looks down at hip* You ever consider getting a tattoo?

Speed: *places hand on Anni's hip* Nah, it's not really my thing.

Anni: You seem to like mine an awful lot.

Speed: *smirks*

Anni: *smiles*

Speed: *kisses Anni*

Anni: *grabs Speed's hair*

5 minutes later

Katie: HEY! *smacks top of bunk* Some people are trying to sleep! And turn off the bloody pot light!

Anni: *looks down* Wha?

Katie: Stop being kissy-kissy while I'm trying to sleep.

Speed: Yeah right, like you're actually sleeping.

Katie: *frowns, stands* Tim, get out.

Speed: No.

Katie: This is the girls' cabin.

Speed: I have every right to spend time with my wife.

Katie: Spend it outside.

Speed: Why? You'll just interrupt that too.

Katie: Tim, seriously. Horatio wants me to fill the Hummerhome's tires with air tomorrow morning and I'd like to have more than 2 minutes of sleep.

Speed: Then wear earplugs.

Katie: What about Carly and Lora? You're disturbing them too.

Anni: Lora's listening to her music in the dining room and Carly went to sleep in Calleigh and Heather's cabin. Apparently you leave your stuff everywhere and she's had it.

Katie: So? It's my side. I can fill it up with my crap as long as it doesn't seep.

Anni: Your side is my side.

Katie: We're practically the same person.

Speed: HA!

Katie: *looks at Speed*

Speed: That's a laugh and a half. *jumps down* If you don't like what we're doing, *grabs door* you can leave.

Katie: I'm not leaving my own bedroom.

Speed: It's not yours.

Katie: It's not yours either. You know what? I'm going to climb up and sit with Anni. Then you CAN'T have her. HA HA! *climbs up*

Anni: GET OFF! *pushes Katie*

Katie: AH! *falls over*

Speed: *grabs Katie*

Katie: *grabs onto Speed*

Speed: I promise you can have the entire room tomorrow.

Katie: That's because we're staying in Vegas tomorrow.

Speed: I can't wait.

Katie: The last time we were in Vegas, you asked me to marry you.

Anni: Katie, please go away.

Katie: Fine but you owe me big time.

Anni: You can have all my winnings in Vegas.

Katie: *smiles* Oooh. *walks away, shuts door*

Anni: Finally. *climbs into bed*

Speed: *jumps up*

Anni: *sighs* There. It's quiet. *lies head on Speed's chest* No babies, no Brooklyn...

Speed: *smiles*

Anni: Which means more fun time!

Speed: I like the sound of that.

Thanks so much for the review! Wee!

Dining area

Katie: Ugh. They suck. *throws piece of muffin at wall*

Carly: Huh? *looks over*

Katie: Anni and Speed. They're so ooey gooey with each other, it's sickening.

Carly: ...Weren't you and Speed all ooey gooey at one time?

Katie: *throws muffin piece* That doesn't count.

Carly: Why?

Katie: It was fun for me.

Carly: Aw. *pats Katie's head*

Katie: That's it, I'm going to flood their cabin with mustard. *opens blinds* Is that Wal-Mart still open?

Carly: We're going to do what now?

Katie: C'mon, you slept with Speed. You hate him too.

Carly: I don't hate him.

Katie: Move your ass.

Carly: But *reaches for computer* my solitaire game!

Wal-Mart Supercentre

Katie: *grabs shopping cart* Okay, let's find the mustard. *looks up* Aisle 2...4...7...15...where would it be...*taps chin*...

Carly: *stares at Katie* Are you kidding me?

Katie: What?

Carly: The mustard is on aisle 5.

Katie: *blinks* WHAT'S HAPPENING TO ME! *falls to knees* I'VE BECOME OLD! Pretty soon I won't remember my own name! *grabs Carly by the shirt* CARLY, WE NEED TO FIND A CURE FOR OLD AGE, PRONTO!

Carly: I thought we were looking for mustard.

Katie: No wonder Speed hates me! I'm an old bag lady!

Carly: Anni's older than you and she looks mighty fine.

Katie: *starts to cry* I'M AN UGLY YOUNG BAG LADY!

Carly: *grabs Katie's arm* Here, mustard will cheer you up. *starts throwing mustard into cart*

Katie: It's not the same. *kicks shopping cart*

Carly: What now?

Katie: This is where Tim and I first met. *starts to cry*

Carly: Yeah and now you're going to flood his cabin with mustard, it's called poetic justice, remember?

Katie: Oh right. The bastard. *throws mustard* Promise me eternity, will you. *throws mustard* Beat my face in, will you. *throws mustard* Knock me up and then knock me out, will you. *throws mustard* Send my kids to Colombia, will you. *throws mustard* Beat me some more, will you. *throws mustard* Have kids with other women whilst still being married to yours truly, will you. *throws mustard* Abandon those kids and not pay a thing for child support, will you. *throws mustard* Divorce me and then marry Anni, w-

Carly: I thought you divorced him.

Katie: *looks at Carly* What?

Carly: You were sick of his ways.

Katie: *frowns* I don't hear you throwing mustard.

Carly: *sighs, grabs mustard*

Katie: So who's paying for all this?

Carly: I stole Horatio's credit card while he was napping.

Katie: *gasp* SHOPPING SPREE! *grabs card, runs away giggling*

Carly: *shakes head* That girl.

Cash register

Cashier: *looking at line of mustard* ...You sure you want all of this?

Katie: Yep. Double bag 'em please.

Cashier: You throwing some kind of party?

Katie: Well it won't be much of a party for the people who are going to DROWN ON IT! MWAHAHA! *gets to knees, pumps fist*

Carly: *looks at Cashier* We're getting her on medication soon.

Cashier: *nods slowly*

Outside Hummerhome

Katie: *looks in window* Okay, they're going at it. Let's start pumping the mustard into the hose. Once we get it going, we'll put the hose through the air vent.

Carly: They won't notice mustard dripping from the ceiling?

Katie: They're too busy gettin' down and dirty.

Carly: *squeezing mustard* How come you're not helping?

Katie: I'm making sure they don't see us. *looks through window*

Carly: *rolls eyes* If you want to watch, all you had to do was hide in the closet like Eric does.

Katie: *looks back* Eric hides in the closet?

Carly: He practically lives there. *smiles* No wonder Josh is always after him.

Katie: *looks through window*

Carly: They naked yet?

Katie: Nope. Tim seems to be taking his sweet time. *squints* Whoa. Where'd he learn to do that?

Carly: I could use some help here. I'm getting carpal tunnel.

Katie: Shhh! *waves hands* It's getting good!

Carly: How are you going to contain the mustard to their room?

Katie: Wow, Anni has a nice body.

Carly: Katie.

Katie: Aww that's kind of sweet what they're doing right there. Oooh Tim's been working out.

Carly: Katie!

Katie: *looks back* HUSH UP! Don't blow our cover!

Carly: Squeeze some mustard or I'm leaving.

Katie: First he abandons me, then my best friend abandons me and now YOU'RE going to abandon me?

Carly: I'm not abandoning you. I'm tired, it's late and I don't want the Hummerhome smelling like mustard. I was hoping you'd give up already.

Katie: I never give up. *looks through window*

Carly: What exactly will you accomplish by drowning them in their bed with a condiment?

Katie: Oooh nice move, Tim.

Carly: Are you even listening to me?

Katie: SHUT UP!

Inside bedroom

Anni: *lifts head* Did you hear something?

Speed: It's probably just wild animals.

Anni: That sound like Katie?

Speed: ...I really hope she's not in the closet.

Anni: *looks out window* OH MY GOD! THERE SHE IS!

Speed: *frowns*

Outside Hummerhome

Katie: Fall back, fall back. We've been spotted. *jumps down*

Carly: What?

Katie: JUST THROW THE MUSTARD AND RUN! *runs away*

Carly: But y-

Speed: *opens back door* What the hell are you doing?

Carly: *lifts head* Uh...huh?

Speed: You're sitting outside our window with a bucket of mustard.

Carly: *looks down* This? Noooo...this...this isn't for YOU. This...well, I got sprayed by a skunk and I thought I'd try mustard.

Speed: I don't smell anything.

Carly: IT WORKED! *runs away*

In the woods

Carly: *runs over*

Katie: Did he catch you?

Carly: *frowns, slaps Katie* I gave a stupid lie because you decided to be loud.

Katie: What did you tell him?

Carly: I said I got sprayed by a skunk.

Katie: AH! UNCLEAN! *runs deep into woods*

Carly: Katie! That's the wrong way! You're gonna get lost!

Hummerhome, 7am

Horatio: What do you mean you lost her?

Carly: She was watching Speed and Anni one minute and the next, she was heading into the woods.

Delko: Was she wearing underwear?

Everyone: *looks at Eric*

Delko: Personal experience. Briefs and socks don't mix with the hundred acre wood.

Horatio: What do you mean she was 'watching' Speed and Anni?

Speed: Uh...we might have been-

Anni: *elbows Speed* Playing Scrabble.

Horatio: Mhm. Well, we'll have to make up a search party and go get her.

Speed: Wait a second. You think she's actually lost? She's like a stray dog, she always finds her way home.

Horatio: Speed, we have to assume the worst.

Speed: Katie being gone? That's the best thing to ever happen to us.

Horatio: She's one of us.

Speed: Ryan's one of us and we keep forgetting him at gas stations.

Ryan: *lifts hand* It's true. I had to walk 705 miles to catch up with you guys last time.

Horatio: Everyone pack some gear, emergency rations and lots of water. *puts on shades* We're heading into the unknown.

Colton: ...We're in Utah.

Ryan: I've never been to Utah.

Colton: No one cares what you think, Ryan.

Ryan: *lowers head* Yes sir.

TBC................................

 

Oh yeah, he's sure been around the block. Katie, Anni, Carly, Jess, Calleigh... :lol: He was quite the manwhore back in the day.

Hee! The insanity continues!

Thanks so much for the reviews, gals!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Utah, woods

Ryan: *lifts arm* Uh, guys! Wait up! I can't get up the hill carrying all your stuff!

Horatio: No time to be lazy, Ryan! Left, right, left right!

Ryan: *frowns* I'll never stop being a newbie to these people.

Up the line

Horatio: What does the GPS say, Speed?

Speed: *staring down* Uh...it says we're in the middle of the woods heading North East.

Horatio: Where does it say Katie is?

Speed: ...You tacked her with a GPS locator?

Horatio: All of you have one.

Speed: That's...disturbing.

Horatio: Hit that little green button.

Speed: *pushes button*

GPS starts to beep

Speed: It says the signal can't be located.

Horatio: Hmm...*places hands on hips* she must have taken out the GPS.

Speed: ...Where was it?

Horatio: I'd rather not say. But what I will say, is Eric's was the most difficult to install.

Speed: *nods slowly*

Horatio: Looks like we'll have to do this the old fashioned way.

Anni: Wait until she's dead and THEN start looking for a body?

Horatio: Let's try looking for a living person.

Delko: Guys, I don't mean to be a pain but we're getting dangerously close to that wasp nest over there.

Horatio: They're bugs, Eric.

Delko: They're DEMONS.

Calleigh: *smiles* I like bumble bees. They're so fuzzy and fat and they meander around like they're drunk, it's really very adorable.

Delko: *looks at Calleigh* These aren't bumble bees. They're LUCIFER'S MINIONS! *trips over log* AH! *bumps into tree*

Branches sway

Delko: *looks up*

Wasp nest starts to buzz louder

Delko: *screams, runs*

Wasps fly out of nest, chasing Eric

Delko: SOMEBODY HELP ME! SHOOT THEM!

Speed: Play dead!

Anni: Jump in the mud!

Carly: Pretend you're the Queen!

Calleigh: Jump into the river!

Delko: OKAY! *jumps off cliff*

Everyone: *looks over side of cliff*

Horatio: *sigh* Great. Now we have two missing people. Speed, get the rope.

Speed: ...Why?

Horatio: You're going down to get him.

Speed: No I'm not.

Horatio: Yes you are.

Speed: I don't do heights.

Katie: You saved me from the side of a cliff, why won't you save Eric?

Speed: Because I don't like Eric. *looks at Katie* HEY! I thought you were lost!

Katie: I heard Eric screaming like a little girl and thought I'd see what all the hooplah was about. *smiles* But it's nice to hear you like me.

Speed: *frowns*

Horatio: Welcome back, Katie.

Katie: Aww look how cute everyone is, all geared up to save me. *flicks Ryan's nose*

Ryan: AH! DON'T SHIFT THE WEIGHT! *falls over into mud*

Horatio: No time for rest now, Ryan. We have to save Eric.

Ryan: *frowning*

Horatio: Let's all form a line on the rope and lower ourselves down. I'll be at the bottom, everyone follow. *grabs ropes from bag* Everyone get your straps and things on.

20 minutes later

Katie: Horatio, mine's stuck in my hair.

Horatio: You were supposed to wrap it over your chest.

Katie: It got stuck on the way down.

Speed: *grabs strap, yanks it down*

Katie: OW! *holds head*

Speed: All better.

Katie: *punches Speed in the gut*

Speed: Oof.

Horatio: Guys, let's concentrate on saving a life please. *jumps off cliff*

Katie: No no no. I'm not jumping down there.

Horatio: It's perfectly safe, Katie.

Katie: That's what they say about roller coasters, airplanes and hot air balloons but look what happens.

Speed: ...How many hot air balloon accidents have you actually seen?

Katie: You know what? Somewhere, somehow, a victim of a horrid and tragic hot air balloon accident is visibly offended.

Speed: Get down the cliff.

Katie: *frowns, gets to knees*

Colton: Ha ha! Do that often?

Katie: *punches Colton's kneecaps*

Colton: OW! I was just trying to fill the void Eric left behind!

Anni: *jumps down cliff*

Katie: *looks down* Hey, you're real good at that.

Anni: I used to go rock climbing in college.

Katie: ...I used to have anonymous sex in college.

Speed: Not really a skill you'll need to use out here.

Katie: You just wait. *climbs onto cliff* There could be a tribe of homicidal pygmy natives out here and the only way to escape is to follow their custom of anonymous sex.

Speed: Start climbing.

Katie: Okay. *climbs over cliff*

Speed: *grabs Katie's strap* Downward.

Katie: Damn. *slides down*

Speed: *jumps down*

Katie: AH! YOUR ASS IS TOO CLOSE TO MY FACE!

Speed: You think you have it bad, Colton's is above mine.

Colton: Hey. I have a nice ass.

Speed: Not from where I'm hanging.

Colton: *farts* HA.

Speed: HEY! *slaps Colton* Knock it off!

Colton: That's what you get for insulting my keister.

Horatio: *looks up* Let's refrain from gasing everyone, please.

Colton: *looks down* I'm at the top, that means I'm in charge. *sways* I'VE GOT A LOVELY BUNCH OF COCONUTS, DEEDELEEDEE!

Speed: STOP SWAYING!

Katie: *screams, grabs onto Speed's leg*

Anni: Colton, you're going to kill us!

Colton: Relax! We're secured! I made sure of it myself. *sways*

Latch snaps, team drops 10 feet

Katie: *screaming*

Speed: COLTON!

Colton: IT'S YOUR FAULT! YOU'RE ALL TOO HEAVY!

Speed: Re-attach the metal thing to the rock thing!

Katie: Yeah, real technical, Speed!

Speed: Shut up! I don't want to die anymore than you do!

Anni: I vote next time we let Eric die so we don't have to.

Colton: What does this thing do? *lifts latch*

Rope falls

Colton: AH!

Everyone falls, screaming

10 minutes later, bottom of ravine

Horatio: *looks down at shades* Drat. Broken again.

Carly: *wipes mud from eyes*

Speed: *rolls over* Ugh. We all still alive?

Anni: *wipes forehead, looks down at hand* Relatively.

Calleigh: Ooh a ladybug. *reaches out hand*

Katie: *crawls over* Okay, that wasn't fun. Let's not do it again.

Horatio: Has anyone seen Eric yet?

Anni: If he rolled down the cliff and into the river, he could be downstream by now.

Speed: *waves hand* Let's leave him to the bears.

Katie: I'm going to tell Brooklyn you're a wimp.

Speed: *stands* Let's go for a swim.

Horatio: Speed, sit down. Why don't we have some snacks. *looks up* Ryan! Throw down some chewy bars!

Ryan: H, you're sitting on me.

Horatio: *looks down* Oops.

Carly: You mean all of our gear is up the cliff?

Horatio: It would seem that way.

Katie: It's okay, we can eat these berries over here. *grabs berries, shoves them into mouth*

Everyone: NO!

Katie: *stares blankly* What?

Speed: Spit them out!

Katie: *spits out berries* What gives? I'm hungry.

Speed: You don't know what those are.

Katie: Berries.

Speed: They could be poisonous.

Katie: Why would the planet make poisonous berries? That's not very nice.

Speed: Leave those alone.

Katie: Alright then, master of the universe. What should we be eating?

Speed: How the hell should I know? I grew up in New York.

Anni: Let's just kill some rabbits.

Calleigh: NO! NO BUNNY MURDERS!

Horatio: Guys, there's a McDonalds at the tourist center down there.

Katie: WE'RE SAVED!

McDonalds, tourist center

Horatio: *taps chin* Okay...what do we want...

Katie: I'm famished.

Anni: I could eat the entire cow.

Calleigh: McDonalds isn't very healthy.

Katie: Fine, you can eat the poisonous berries. *hands over berries*

Speed: You took those?

Katie: *smiles* I'm scrap booking.

Horatio: Give me 25 quarter pounders with cheese, 15 orders of large fries and 11 sodas.

Anni: ...None of that made any sense.

Horatio: It's a starting point.

Table

Katie: *flings fries at Speed*

Speed: *frowns* What are you, 7?

Katie: Oooh, I've gone up in age.

Speed: Stop throwing fries.

Katie: STOP BEING GAY.

Speed: I'm not gay.

Katie: Well...Josh is and you're related to him so it still counts. HA.

Carly: So...we aren't looking for Eric?

Horatio: *waves hand* We'll start back up the search once we're fed.

Anni: What if he was mauled by wolves?

Katie: Or the pygmies got him.

Speed: Unless he's already dead.

Delko: *walks out of bathroom* Who's dead?

Speed: AH! STOP DOING THAT!

Horatio: Eric...you're alive.

Delko: Yeah. I saw the McDonalds down here and decided to wash up. *sits* What are we having? *grabs burger*

Katie: Lunch.

Horatio: ...Perhaps I should call Ryan back then.

Middle of the woods

Ryan: *stares down at GPS, shakes it* Coordinate, damnit!

A bear saunters past, looks at Ryan

Ryan: *lifts head* ....Uh oh.
