Sorry about leaving you all hanging there: here's an update, finally. Very short, but oh well then.
The door is opened, Horatio looks straight at Speed, who hasn't shaved in a while and appears disheveled.
Horatio:... ten.
Speed: You should have stayed in Miami.
H: Don't tell me what I should have done.
S: Don't you get it? While you're here, they're working on bringing down the lab back in Miami. You're needed there.
H: I came to get you. I'm done with this crap.
S: I'm not leaving. I can't do that to you.
H: Do what to us? *enters apartment, shuts door* We love you. We'll do anything to keep you with us.
S: *looks at floor*
H: Did you not realize that?
S: I know you love me. I love you too.
H: So what is it then? I came here to get you back and you can actually stand here and say you're not coming.
S: They're too powerful! They'll get me, or take the lab down. It's safer for everyone if I stay here.
H: It's not. I have a lawsuit in action. I'm bringing this down, I'm not alone, and I'm taking you back with me.
S: *looks at Horatio* I can't just leave.
H: Yes you can. We're police officers, we can do what we want. They come after you, I take them out. I'm really sick and tired of this dancing in circles crap where everything is a secret and everyone's getting hurt.
S: *sighs*
H: This is a big deal. I know that.
S: It's not just that. It's a lot of things. There's some things I've done that I'm not proud of. Here I can make it right-
H: Wait- you're actually supporting this new brand of cops?
S: No! But I can help people here. LA is a crime-ridden city that needs enforcement and undercover agents.
H: Let LA's cops take care of it, not this criminal gang that pretends to know what they're doing.
S: They're not criminal! They're against the criminals!
H: But they're also against the real cops.
S: Only the ones that don't support them. Or us.
H: This group is no more than a militia. It's attempting something that'll never happen, and in the process is taking down families and ruining lives. People who've made foolish mistakes as kids are being yanked away and dragged down here through blackmail.
S: I don't agree with it, but I have to do it.
H: I keep telling you this- you don't! We can fight it, we can change this. We can overcome it and send people back home.
S: I don't know...
H: I was almost killed back in Miami. Hundreds of people have been brought here to change the way law enforcement is run, ripped away from their loved ones as you've been- as you know. Ryan almost died here as we tried to find you. Don't you think it's better if we end this?
S: *snaps head up* Is Ryan okay? What happened?
H: Come back with me and I'll tell you. You're part of our family, and we'll do anything to keep it that way.
S: *smirks* I've just been trying to help you all out. But you're right: we need to end this for everyone out there.
H: Is it really that- the fact that this is hurting other people too- that's bringing you back?
S: *nods*
H: You're such a cop.
S: *laughs*
H: *pats Speed on the back*
