I simply pulled you up on file did a search on you and then looked up every time you have been to Red Lobster or a Seafood resturaunt, then checked to see what you had and that appeared almost every time. " He said with a smile. "Not bad for an SVU cop. " He as when he mentioned SVU he sighed and his smile fadded

She listened to him and then put her hand on his. "You are doing something about it. But you can't let the evil get you down. That's all they need, another cop feeling bad, and worthless, then they can run right over you. A great philiosopher once said, 'All evil needs to triumph is for good men to do nothing.' And you aren't doing nothing you are doing something. Don't let your hopes get thrown down then there is no way you can win." She said very serious and looking straight into his eyes.

She smiled. "We all wish we could do more but we can only do our best." She then looked at him with a mysterious grin. "Well I am sure I could with keeping your mind off work." She said as she ran her fingers over his forearm.
