Ah...Bailey...actually not worth even the obsencities I WAS going to call her. So, just leave it at that. Kudos though for bringing a character that I absolutely despise
Krista- I'm going to totally forget that my daughter's name is Krista( yeah, I cracked up everytime she said something), and say that she is indeed very sheltered. Poor Lori though, the old Lori would've probably handed her tokus on a platter with her colorful words and such. I'm glad that Lori stayed...well, calm. Although, falling flat on your face isn't a great alternative. Thanks to the parent gene!
Excellent update, Geni!

^ Heh, I totally didn't know that was your daughter's name. That's kind of cool.
Thanks so much for the reviews everyone and I apologize for not getting here for a couple of days. I'll try to get another chapter up tonight or tomorrow.
But while you wait, I created a playlist for all the songs I listen/have listened to as I wrote the RT. :lol: The list is still in progress but you can listen to what I have so far. (They stream on the site)
Anyway, yeah. I'll be back.

Downtown Miami
Natalia: *places down kit* ...Where's the crime scene Alexx?
Alexx: *points up*
Natalia: *looks up* What is that?
Manager: Dinner in the sky.
Natalia: *looks over* Sorry?
Manager: Simply, it's a giant table hoised 150ft in the air by a crane. We have created it for people who want to experience something more than four walls and a solid floor. *smiles* We even have a bartender who serves wine.
Natalia: Let me guess, for your more rich clientel.
Manager: Precicely. People will pay anything for adventure, especially when it involves food. It's just...unfortunate what happened.
Natalia: What exactly happened?
Manager: About 20 minutes into dinner, I recieved a call from above stating that one of the customers had fallen asleep.
Natalia: 150ft in the air?
Manager: *tilts head* Upon further investigation, we determined she was dead.
Natalia: On your own. Shouldn't you wait for a coroner to make that decision?
Manager: A dead body is a dead body, no matter what papers you carry.
Alexx: Legally that's not the case. I want that crime scene down here right now.
Manager: As you wish. *walks away*
Natalia: Dinner in the sky, huh. Not something I'll ever try.
Alexx: *laughs*
10 minutes later
Natalia: *places on gloves*
Alexx: *lifts vic's head*
Natalia: 23 chairs. So, 23 suspects. That is, if it was even a murder.
Alexx: It's a murder alright.
Natalia: Really.
Alexx: Through and through.
Natalia: *lifts brows* Witnesses didn't see or hear anything.
Josh: *walks over* Maybe it was windy.
Natalia: *looks over, smiles* You're back from Orlando.
Josh: As of two hours ago.
Natalia: You should have called, I would have taken my stuff out of your house.
Josh: Thanks, by the way for looking after them while I was away.
Natalia: It's no problem. They're great kids. Except I will need to talk to you later about something.
Josh: *nods* So where are we with the case?
Natalia: Young woman was shot in the head, 150ft in the air. No one saw or heard anything.
Josh: I'm assuming we don't have a bullet.
Natalia: Through and through. If we do, it's a large search area.
Josh: You thinking sniper?
Natalia: Could be. There are plenty of tall buildings around. The Four Seasons, Wachovia-
Josh: Whoa, what the hell happened to that one?
Natalia: Bombers.
Josh: Never a dull moment.
Natalia: Looks like we'll need to get this thing back up in the air.
Josh: Uh, why.
Natalia: To determine where the shot came from.
Josh: How are you going to do that?
Natalia: I'm not. You are.
Josh: I don't think so.
Natalia: We'll flip for it.
Josh: No. I don't do heights.
Natalia: Oh come on, you'll be strapped in.
Josh: Let's make a compromise. One of the patrol officers gets to do it.
Natalia: *laughs* That's cheating.
Josh: I'm too old for that stuff.
Natalia: You're younger than me.
Josh: I'll see you back at the lab. *walks away*
Alexx: *shakes head*
Natalia: Men.
Alexx: *laughs*
Miami Lab, 7pm
Natalia: *walks over* Go the tragectory on the bullet. It came from Wachovia at a downward angle.
Josh: Great.
Natalia: It's weird though. That building has been closed down all week for repairs.
Josh: Well, it actually would make things easier don't you think? Alarm probably isn't on so breaking in isn't a problem. The perp could have been there all night. Where was the vic employed?
Natalia: Uh, she was a self-made bazillionaire. Lived on Star Island in a very nice house on the water.
Josh: What did she do?
Natalia: She sold herbal products. One of them is pretty big on the market and everythng is home made.
Josh: Maybe she sold a bad batch.
Natalia: Maybe but not likely anyone would have found her. She markets everything anonymously. The only one who knows who she is, is her business partner and distributor.
Josh: Who's her business partner?
Natalia: Graham Jenkins. He was also on the dinner thing.
Josh: Interesting detail to leave out.
Natalia: I was getting there.
Josh: Right well, we should be talking to him next then.
Natalia: Yeah. So can I talk to you about something?
Josh: Sure.
Natalia: It's actually about Cait.
Josh: *takes off gloves* What about her?
Natalia: I uh, caught her in her room with a man.
Josh: *stares at Natalia* Man as in boy?
Natalia: Man as in college sophomore..or more?
Josh: *frowns* What were they doing?
Natalia: The naked rumba.
Josh: For her sake, I hope you're joking.
Natalia: Uh, not so much.
Josh: I'll see you tomorrow. *leaves*
Natalia: JOSH! Wai-...*sigh* Well, that went well.
House
Josh: *walks in, slams door* CAIT!
Ethan: *points up stairs*
Josh: CAIT!
Cait: *walks downstairs* What, geez?
Josh: Natalia tells me you were with some guy in your room.
Cait: *looks down at floor, scratches head*
Josh: Some college guy?
Cait: *shrugs*
Josh: You're barely out of junior high.
Cait: I look like I'm 18.
Josh: *crosses arms*
Cait: It's not that big a deal. Besides, what would you care anyway? You're never here.
Josh: I thought we went over this once. Why are you doing this?
Cait: *shrugs* I don't know, it's fun.
Josh: *nods, sits*
Cait: *sits*
Josh: Obviously I'm not getting through to you. Am I doing something wrong here? Am I someone you can just walk all over?
Cait: ...Is this rhetorical?
Josh: No, I really want to know.
Cait: You're just...not a normal dad.
Josh: What's that supposed to mean?
Cait: You're doing your own thing, y'know? You leave for days at a time, you go out with a whole bunch of guys and you don't really pay attention to us. I-I mean, when I was younger, I thought it was normal for dads to date other guys and wear weird things and haul their kids around the country in a car. Honestly though, I don't really see you as a 'dad' figure. And that's not an excuse for why I'm galavanting around Miami with some older guy. That's a completely different thing. Like I said, it's fun so don't go calling Dr.Phil or anything. I'm not screwed up in the head, I'm just a dumb teenager. But I do have a problem with you and that's the truth.
Josh: *looks down at table*
Cait: Why did you even marry mom?
Josh: Cait, I spend most of my life pretty confused. I had an...interesting childhood and for some reason I gravitated to men who didn't treat me like a piece of garbage. Love is love, sex is sex, it doesn't matter what gender. It just so happens with me, it was always with men. I was around that lifestyle because of where I started working and I developed relationships. That's where I was comfortable and safe for the first time in a long time and it was that way for years.
Cait: Was? You mean not anymore?
Josh: Like I said, love is love.
Cait: So like, if a hot chick with a big rack walked by, you'd look.
Josh: That's disrespectful.
Cait: *rolls eyes* But you like women, right?
Josh: You were clearly not listening to what I was just saying.
Cait: Yeah yeah, love is love. But you used to go guy hunting with your friends, right?
Josh: I did a lot of things. And I'm sorry that I was irresponsible when you two were younger but that doesn't completely reflect who I am now. I may not have been a very good father back then, but I'm trying to be one now and I would hope that the way I am doesn't lose me any respect with you. But obviously it has.
Cait: I'm not like, against that lifestyle but yeah, you were irresponsible and sometimes... I'm just not proud that I'm your kid. And like, where were you for three weeks?
Josh: I was in Orlando on business.
Cait: What kind of business?
Josh: Criminalist training and convention.
Cait: *nods* See, it might have been nice that you told me beforehand.
Josh: I'm sorry, I had to leave and you were at school. Natalia was supposed to tell you.
Cait: She just said business. I assumed you were right back where you where when I was little. Like I said, you weren't exactly interested in anyone but yourself lately.
Josh: I've had some things to work out personally. But you and your brother will be living with your mother pretty soon.
Cait: *lifts brow* Why?
Josh: I'm signing over full custody.
Cait: I don't want to live with mom.
Josh: Well yeah, she actually keeps you from acting like a stupid teenager.
Cait: Is this my punishment or something?
Josh: No. It's mine. I'm doing a lousy job and your mother had a lawyer on my ass over custody anyway. She's moving back to Australia at the end of the year.
Cait: I don't want to leave! All my friends are here!
Josh: You'll do fine in Australia.
Cait: NO! I'm not going!
Josh: A judge is going to say otherwise.
Cait: This is bull. *stands, leaves*

Gotta love Josh's candid view on life. I'm glad that he's being brutally honest with Cait- unfortuately for Cait, she's now going to have to contend with being with Carly. I wonder what Josh is going to do after the kids leave? I really like Josh, I hope that he's able to find himself and peace....Yeah, I got really anaylitical there
Hope everything's going better for you, Geni!

Krista: ..Geez. You do that like a cop or something.
Scott: *lifts brow*
Lori: *swings open door, smiles* Yeah?
Scott: *blinks* ...You weren't opening the door.
Lori: Sorry, I was doin' my hair. Come on in. *runs over to bathroom*
Scott: *walks in* It smells like a salon in here.
Krista: Whoa, my bed is made!
Lori: *walks out of bathroom* Doesn't it just look so much more proper? Kind of makes your day seem better, huh. *smiling*
Krista: TOTALLY!
Scott: You're wearing...pink.
Lori: Mhm, Krista picked it out. *opens drapes*
Scott: You curled your hair.
Lori: Nothing says summer like a fun hair-do. *smiles* Don't y'all think it smells simply lovely in here?
Krista: *smiling* It does.
Scott: Oh my God I've just walked into Sweet Valley High.
Lori: *punches Scott*
Scott: OW! *holds arm*
Lori: It's my homework for this week. I'm supposed to think positive, make things happen and discover my flower power.
Scott: ...I'm sorry, what?
Krista: It's a self-empowerment course.
Scott: *places hands in pockets* So you act like Barbie all week and this is supposed to help your treatment.
Lori: I am not acting like Barbie. I'm just hoisting myself out of the shadows for a while and taking everything in with a ray of sunshine instead of a pile of manure.
Krista: I like happy Lori. *smiles* She's so cute.
Lori: *smiling*
Krista: You look so fresh without all that eye makeup and leather.
Lori: And I ain't even wearin' my steel toed shoes.
Krista: YAY! Oooh let's make cookies!
Lori: *runs over to oven, grabs plate* Already done!
Krista: OMG SHE MADE COOKIES! Can I have some?
Lori: Of course. I made 'em for you hun.
Krista: Aww! *eats cookies* Doesn't Lori look pretty Scotty?
Scott: We're all supposed to be on a bus right now, you know.
Krista: Nope, I got us out of it. Besides, I'd much rather eat cookies and watch movies all day anyway. That can be some great therapy.
Lori: *drinks soda, nods*
Scott: *removes hands from pockets* Well, you two have fun. *walks to door*
Krista: *looks at floor* Hey! You dropped something. *picks up baggie* Looked like sugar.
Lori: *looks at Scott*
Scott: *grabs bag* Low blood sugar.
Lori: Krista, could you go grab us some movies out of the admin area?
Krista: Sure. *runs out of room*
Lori: *walks over*
Scott: *turns around*
Lori: May I see it?
Scott: *hands over bag*
Lori: *looks down*
Scott: It's not sugar.
Lori: Oh I can see that. *lifts head* What are you doing with it?
Scott: *stares at Lori*
Lori: You do realize benzoylecgonine can be detected in urine for up to five days. You could get yourself thrown out.
Scott: I'm not using cocaine.
Lori: Then why is it in your posession?
Scott: Bailey gave it to me. Apparently, I need to 'chill out'.
Lori: She gave you drugs.
Scott: I was going to report her and bring the stuff with me to show them but...*sigh* She's my friend.
Lori: Turn her in. It'll be ten times worse if someone else finds this stuff on you. You're lucky Krista's a bit...loopy.
Scott: She was starting to do well here.
Lori: Well she just screwed up. Stop covering for her.
Scott: *grabs bag* It was just one mistake.
Lori: Look, you wouldn't have considered turning her in if you didn't know what was right.
Scott: I guess I needed a second opinion.
Lori: ...That's why you came here?
Scott: *shrugs*
Lori: Have you read my file? Former drug user here. Not the best person to have a consult with.
Scott: I'd say you're the perfect person.
Lori: *staring at bag*
Scott: *lifts brow* You okay?
Lori: *blinks* Yeah.
Scott: Good or bad memories.
Lori: Conflicting ones. *smirks*
Scott: Right well, I guess I should go report this whole thing.
Lori: Yeah.
Scott: Thanks.
Lori: Don't mention it.
Scott: By the way, you look...not half bad.
Lori: Very funny.

Krista: Nope, I got us out of it. Besides, I'd much rather eat cookies and watch movies all day anyway. That can be some great therapy.
Lori: *drinks soda, nods*
Scott: *removes hands from pockets* Well, you two have fun. *walks to door*
Krista: *looks at floor* Hey! You dropped something. *picks up baggie* Looked like sugar.
Lori: *looks at Scott*
Scott: *grabs bag* Low blood sugar.
Lori: Krista, could you go grab us some movies out of the admin area?
Krista: Sure. *runs out of room*
Lori: *walks over*
Scott: *turns around*
Lori: May I see it?
Scott: *hands over bag*
Lori: *looks down*
Scott: It's not sugar.
Lori: Oh I can see that. *lifts head* What are you doing with it?
Scott: *stares at Lori*
Lori: You do realize benzoylecgonine can be detected in urine for up to five days. You could get yourself thrown out.
Scott: I'm not using cocaine.
Lori: Then why is it in your posession?
Scott: Bailey gave it to me. Apparently, I need to 'chill out'.
Lori: She gave you drugs.
Scott: I was going to report her and bring the stuff with me to show them but...*sigh* She's my friend.
Lori: Turn her in. It'll be ten times worse if someone else finds this stuff on you. You're lucky Krista's a bit...loopy.
Scott: She was starting to do well here.
Lori: Well she just screwed up. Stop covering for her.
Scott: *grabs bag* It was just one mistake.
Lori: Look, you wouldn't have considered turning her in if you didn't know what was right.
Scott: I guess I needed a second opinion.
Lori: ...That's why you came here?
Scott: *shrugs*
Lori: Have you read my file? Former drug user here. Not the best person to have a consult with.
Scott: I'd say you're the perfect person.
Lori: *staring at bag*
Scott: *lifts brow* You okay?
Lori: *blinks* Yeah.
Scott: Good or bad memories.
Lori: Conflicting ones. *smirks*
Scott: Right well, I guess I should go report this whole thing.
Lori: Yeah.
Scott: Thanks.
Lori: Don't mention it.
Scott: By the way, you look...not half bad.
Lori: Very funny.
Scott: *laughs*

Wow... that's a change for Lori. Pink, curled hair, cookies. I've been skimming through everything I missed and am a *bit* confused, but that's expected. I think I understand the majority of the story.
Great job, Gen.
Great job, Gen.
Lol, welcome backles.
Sorry I haven't been updating for a few days. I've been obsessing over my other favourite show so I'm guilty so say I've been neglecting CSI lately.

Horatio: BEHOLD! *raises hands*
Lora: ... *pulls Horatio's hands to the side*
Horatio: Oops.
Calleigh: *smiles* I love it. Look how much there is to do. *hands out brochures* We're going to volunteer here for a few days. You know, riding horses, teaching little kids to ride, that sort of thing.
Speed: This is a stupid idea.
Delko: Yeah. Couldn't we just watch Bonanza?
Calleigh: No one's watching Bonanza.
Cowboy: *walks over* You guys are the volunteers?
Calleigh: Yep! *grinning*
Cowboy: Okay, get to work. *hands over shovels*
Calleigh: *smile fades* ...What are we supposed to do with these?
Cowboy: Scoop the poop. And when you're done with that, there's a sick pick in the back. You'll have to clean up the vomit otherwise he'll eat it again and keep getting sick. Oh and by the way, those bales of hay down there have to be in the stable by 7pm. *walks away*
Calleigh: ...
Speed: *leans over* Good job.
Calleigh: That's not what it said in the brochure.
Delko: Now can we watch Bonanza?
Calleigh: No.
Delko: Dang.

Speed: I'm supervising. *writing things at table*
Katie: HA. Yeah right, you're not the boss of me.
Speed: You missed a spot in the corner.
Katie: *frowns* What in the heck are you doing?
Speed: Taking care of some bills.
Katie: You're on vacation.
Speed: *flips page*
Katie: *peeks over* Ooh $50 000 bill payment.
Speed: *covers page* ...Do you mind?
Katie: Not at all.
Speed: This is private.
Katie: Then why are you doing it out in the open?
Speed: *frowns*
Katie: *sits* What'd you do, buy a Corvette?
Speed: *lifts brow* I don't even like Corvettes.
Katie: Motorcycle?
Speed: Hospital bill.
Katie: Yikes. For what?
Speed: An X-ray.
Katie: ...An X-ray. It costs that much for an X-ray?
Speed: It does when you don't have insurance.
Katie: You had insurance when we were married.
Speed: When we were married, I had a job and two kids.
Katie: And a house.
Speed: *frowns*
Katie: We even had a lawn and one of those inflatable pools. Hey whatever happened to the night-light aquarium?
Speed: Are you finished?
Katie: I was just curious.
Speed: *goes back to papers*
Katie: Ooh IRS. How come the IRS is sending you mail?
Speed: *staring at mail*
Katie: *grabs paper*
Speed: N-
Katie: Hey this is from that rehab looney bin. Wow, you owe them $3598.52 a month. *grabs more paper*
Speed: Katie, s-
Katie: What's this about attaining assets? *squints* Who comitted suicide?
Speed: *snatches paper back* These are Lori's files.
Katie: You're taking care of her stuff too?
Speed: No, I'm just mixing it in for kicks. It's extra fun when you add more confusion to it.
Katie: I wonder what it would be like if she turned out to be the perfect daughter. She could have a master's degree in something and be the president of a large global company and man, what if she was married to this charming guy and had 2.5 kids, a Mercedes and capital. She could like, take her kids to the beach and buy them ice cream and then they could all get into the Mercedes and watch the homeless beg for the leftovers from McDonalds.
Speed: *staring at Katie*
Katie: I would be so proud of her.
Speed: As opposed to...
Katie: *scoffs* Well she's not exactly woman of the century. I mean, physically she's a mess. Her hair's all wirey, she's 90 pounds soaking wet, she's got these gigantic black rings around her eyes and she's always shaking and twitching. Mentally is a whole nother ballgame. I mean, the girl has probably prostituted herself just to get a fix. She's a wreck. Okay, she looked a little more improved when we last saw her but people have good days and bad days.
Speed: You don't seem real broken up about it.
Katie: I was at first but come on, how many times are we going to go through this? She's a manipulative, angry, self-destructive individual and I've just accepted that there's no hope for someone who doesn't want to change.
Speed: *nods* Interesting philosophy.
Katie: Helps me sleep at night. The way I see it, we don't have any sort of relationship past petty arguments so there's no point in crying over her situation. Just because she's biologically related to me, doesn't make her my 'daughter'. I thought long and hard over it for the past month or so and she's a grown woman who should live with her mistakes and find a way to fix them herself.
Speed: *writing* Well the Judge saw things differently, that's why he handed things over.
Katie: She probably manipulated her way through court. Pretty smart too because she saved herself from 15 years behind bars. She's a sociopath, Tim. She's not insane.
Speed: *writing things down*
Katie: You know what she did to Josh, it was horrific. Imagine all the twisted things she learned in Colombia. For all we know, she's a serial killer or a rapist herself.
Speed: *rips cheque from cheque-book* Yep. *slams binder shut*
Katie: ...Are you mad?
Speed: No. *stands, shoves chair into table, leaves*
Katie: Ugh I hate it when he does that. *stands, runs*
Outside
Katie: *runs over* So what? Are you mad that I'm saying all this terrible stuff about her? That she did all that bad stuff to Josh? Or that you're stuck paying for everything?
Speed: No, you know what? You're probably right about the whole thing.
Katie: ...Like the whole whole thing?
Speed: Once she gets out, she's just going to start all over again and I'm too tired to tolerate her constant shit. I've got more important things to deal with.
Katie: Okay, is this sarcasm?
Speed: No. I've had it. I'm going to forward everything back to the court and have the state take care of it. I have absolutely no responsibility to her, you're completely right.
Katie: ...Wow. So this is what it feels like to be right. Wait, you're sure this isn't sarcasm.
Speed: I've been ignoring everything, taking care of it all just because I thought it needed to be done. Like it was helping her. *shrugs* I'm just giving her another escape route, feeding into her.
Katie: So after all these years, you're finally giving up on her.
Speed: I have to.

Heather: Just get in here.
Lora: *walks into bathroom*
Heather: *hand stuck down bathtub drain, hair stuck around faucet* Ugh.
Lora: What the hell happened? You get into a bar fight with the tub?
Heather: I lost the ring I bought on Ebay. It was expensive and I thought I could reach it.
Lora: You obviously thought wrong. So uh, why's your hair all tangled?
Heather: ...I don't want to talk about it.
Lora: Fair enough.
Lilly: *runs in* OH MAN OH MAN RYAN GOT KICKED IN THE FACE BY THE PIG! Hey, what's going on?

Delko: Hey I didn't pull the pig's tail.
Ryan: Wubba.
Delko: *screams*
Ryan: WUBBA WUBBA WUBBA!
Delko: AH! *runs into barn wall, falls over*
Ryan: Look who's stupid now.
Delko: You're a cruel, mean individual.
Ryan: Hey, think my black eye will impress the ladies?
Delko: I don't know, that depends on what you tell them in regards to how you got it.
Ryan: *frowns* I'll just say I got into a fist fight with you.
Delko: Then they will most certainly laugh.
Ryan: *kicks Delko*
Delko: AH! HEY! *slaps Ryan*
Ryan: *slaps Eric*
Delko: *punches Ryan*
Ryan: OW! Ow, not the nose, not the nose. *holding nose*
Delko: *shoves Ryan's head through the fence*
Ryan: AH! Come on man! I didn't do that to you!
Delko: Now what are you going to tell the ladies? You got kicked in the face by a pig and then someone supposedly stupider than you sent your head through a fence.
Ryan: I'll just tell them you ran through a forest in your underwear because of an imaginary monster made up during Scrabble.

Horatio: *lifts brows*
Anni: I don't know, I'm just not hungry anymore and when I am, good luck keeping it down.
Horatio: There are ways that can be helped.
Anni: Can you recommend anything on a budget of nothing? We don't have 300 dollars to spare on a two week's supply of medication. I'm starting to feel like one of those animals that becomes too expensive to take care of and it's just cheaper to put 'em down, y'know?
Horatio: *nods* Have you spoken to Speed about it?
Anni: *looks around*
Horatio: If there's a problem-
Anni: No. No, it's nothing like that. I just...keep thinking that once I'm gone...I've left him with so many problems. I mean, he can't pay for a funeral or anything.

Scott: This isn't about fun.
Bailey: *glaring* What is wrong with you? In highschool, we used to always just hang out and be cool with each other and have fun. But when you got that stupid job, you turned into such a...straight shooter. I mean, you help old women across the street for crying out loud. And on the way down here, you pulled a guy out of a burning car on the highway. Who the hell cares about other people? Just stop getting involved with everyone else, especially me. You could have just thrown the stuff away. You're a backstabber. I hope you die a firey death. *walks away*

OMG...I return from the land of the non working computer to find this little nugget. Can we say at Lori's new look, courtesy of , of course, a life enrichment class! I agree with Krista, she's so cute in this manner!
What in the world is Scott thinking? I mean really, Bailey's a big girl, she can take care of herself- time for her to do so. I hope that he figures it out! Good on Lori to tell him the truth about things. And kudos to you for showing us that Lori's still battling...
Great job, Geni!
PS....Okay, I just read the update update And wow... I can't believe that Speed is actually giving up on Lori, especially when she's getting so much better. Can thank Katie for that little tid bit
That entire scene with Ryan and Eric is hilarious! I kinda pictured them getting into just like that, sans the pig, however.
I have a feeling that Horatio is going to do the Horatio thing and help out Anni and Speed...it's just something I'm thinking though
Everything is awesome, as always!

Heather: They're just going to pull harder.
Lilly: Yeah but they have the jaws of life.
Heather: For what? My arm? I'd like to keep it, thanks.
Lora: *rubs chin* Well this is going to be a challenging task. Lil, order a pizza, we're going to be here a while.
Half hour later
Lora: *opens door*
Guy: *holds out pizza* $34.82.
Lora: You're one minute late.
Guy: So?
Lora: So your company says 30 minutes or it's free.
Guy: Lady, I had to drive all the way up here. You're lucky the pizza's even cooked.
Lora: Which is why it should be free.
Guy: I'm not leaving without my tip.
Lora: Fine. *reaches into purse, hands over a quarter*
Guy: *looks down* A quarter? That pizza is worth 35 bucks.
Lora: That pizza is free. I'd say you're getting something from nothing.
Heather: Uh, Lora, not that it's not totally fun that you're playing semantics with the pizza delivery boy, but we have some more pressing issues to take care of.
Lora: Oh, right. *pats delivery boy's head* You run along dear. *closes door* Okay, how have things progressed? *grabs pizza*
Heather: Uh let's see. I'm still stuck in the drain, my hair's probably going to fall out and I have to pee.
Lilly: *chewing pizza* You're sitting in the tub. No harm no foul.
Heather: And where's it supposed to go? Down the drain?
Lilly: Oh.
Lora: We'll get you a bucket or something.
Heather: You're a real 5-star type of gal.
Lora: Thanks. *chews pizza*
Heather: Can I have some?
Lora: And fatten up your wrist so you're even more stuck? No way.
Heather: A piece of pizza is not going to fatten me up.
Lora: You never know. Your whole body is pointed downwards and we just can't let that happen.
Lilly: Why don't we just come up from underneath?
Lora: Okay cool. You go get the plumbing degree and I'll go get the demolitions certificate.
Heather: Just call Horatio.
Lora: As much as I'd love for him to be here right now in this hotel room, you kind of ruin the mood and I kind of had a bath in mind.
Heather: ...Ew.
Lilly: Wait, you were going to bathe with Horatio? Isn't that like sitting in old people juices?
Lora: You make it sound gross.
Lilly/Heather: *stare at Lora*
Dude ranch, bar
Delko: *hands over beer* So Ryan here got in a fight with a bear this afternoon.
Ryan: Yep. And Eric stopped him by head butting him. It was almost like running into the side of a barn.
Delko: And Ryan's wound is almost like getting kicked in the face by a pig.
Speed: *nods slowly* You know, I'm more inclined to believe the pig thing than the bear thing.
Delko: Damnit, we should have come up with a different story.
Ryan: Hey maybe we can pitch the story to Horatio and Colton but instead of a bear, it's a flying ninja.
Speed: Yeah. Flying ninjas are a lot more believable than bears.
Ryan: YES! *runs off*
Delko: So what kind of adventures did you get into today?
Speed: What, you mean besides watching Katie roll hay up a hill? Not much.
Delko: They roll back on her?
Speed: Yep. *drinks beer*
Delko: *tilts head* Was it hot?
Speed: *looks at Eric*
Delko: She always struck me as one of those hot farm workers. You know, girl next door types.
Speed: You know, pay-per-view is rotting away your brains.
Delko: *laughs* Look, I'm just messing around.
Speed: I'm sure Jess would appreciate it.
Delko: Wow, getting defensive of Katie. That's ...normal.
Speed: Maybe you should stop at 3 beers.
Delko: Come on, we're on vacation. Have a little fun. We're just guys here.
Speed: *drinks*
Delko: So you and Katie have been spending a lot of time together lately.
Speed: I've been spending time with everyone. The Hummerhome is pretty close-quarters.
Delko: Yeah but out here, you could have spent the time with you know, your wife.
Speed: Why do you always have to make nothing into something? Katie and I are friends. Anni was...
Delko: You don't even know where she was.
Speed: It's not like I have a GPS locator on her.
Delko: So you're sure it's just a friend thing.
Speed: Yeah.
Delko: *nods*
Speed: *taps on table*
Delko: *looks in beer bottle*
Speed: So how are things with Jess?
Delko: Great. All quiet on the western front.
Speed: Good, good.
Delko: I heard Heather stuck in the bathtub drain.
Speed: Unfortunate.
Delko: Yeah.
Speed: Did she get out?
Delko: I don't know. We're taking bets. Calleigh says she'll be free by 3am. I think it'll be a couple more days, knowing our team.
Speed: *nods*
Delko: Well this is awkward.
Speed: You noticed.

Aww, poor awkward Speed and Delko...
*hugs Anni*
Horatio probably will do the Horatio-thing and help out Speed and Anni. And is Speed really giving up on Lori?
Great updates!

I hope like mad that Speed isn't giving up on Anni too...I mean, she's not doing so hot and well, she's worried about how she's going to leave him ...Sigh...drama (but you gotta love it, right? Right? I sure as heck do
Ryan and Eric, this century's Abbot and Costello. They are hilarious together, they should take their act on the road or something....wait, they are on the road! I know...Lame....
and....
Simply the most riotous thing that I've read!
Excellent work!
Ps...Internet's still acting funky...I'm taking care of it on Monday.
