"Nope. Haven't seen her around anywhere. What's wrong? Did you need her because she's been suspended? Remember? You were the one who suspended her." Brandon reminded.

"Yeah, yeah. I know. I just needed to talk to her. I'm thinking of lifting her suspension. We just got a lead on the case and she was right. We do need her help."

"Your call."

"I guess I should then."

"Are you sure that what you want to do? She locked me in that storage room and I'm not saying that she shouldn't be back here; I'm just saying that she needs to serve her punishment. She deliberately disobeyed you, and she won't learn from her mistakes if she doesn't face the consequences she deserves."

"Well," John thought for a moment, "I guess you're right, but don't we need her?"

"Why do you think you have other agents working here? We are all here to help. And with or without her we can do this. She is not the boss, you are. She's not the only one here, and we are just as good as she is. We can solve this mission without her. I think maybe I could do the job."

"Are you sure?"

"Absolutely, what do you want me to do?"
