Adam

(holding a magnifying glass to some burnt paper) Is this real? You think someone's in trouble?

I don't know, Adam. You know, I found these in my apartment after the fire. Now, the edges are singed and the paper's burned, so clearly they were in the apartment before the fire started.

Adam

And you don't recognize the writing.

No.

Adam

Maybe it's from a friend?

Oh, and this friend wrote me a note that said, Help me?

Adam

Uh, maybe you're a bad cook.

So why is half the lab out in the hall watching you fly paper airplanes?

Adam

Um... uh... you know, that's a good point. And, um, I'm going to walk away and work and hopefully save my job.

Adam

(nervously) Was it, um, the paper airplanes? Or-or the-the dancing? It was the dancing, wasn't it? I mean I don't-I don't have to dance. And look, I know I say "what up" a lot, and I'll definitely limit the number of times that I say it, but you just need to tell me, boss, what I need to do and what I don't need to do and I'll do it, or I won't do it but you know 'cause this-this is just--

Adam, Adam. Take a breath.

Adam Ross

Hey.

What are you still doing here?

Adam Ross

Oh, some friends of mine stood me up for pizza so just down on top of things, ya know.

Mind if I join you?

Adam Ross

Oh, no, no, please.

Okay, so what do we got? That doesn't look like work.

Adam Ross

It really isn't. I was just curious. You know there are three Sheldon Hawkes in New York state and there are ten Danny Messers.

Adam Ross

Yeah.

Don't tell Danny that.

Adam Ross

There's also another six Adam Rosses and there's eighteen in New York state. I was just sitting here wondering, you know, what do they look like or what kind of lives do they live, you know?

Alright, what about me?

Adam Ross

Uh, Stella Bonasera. There's only one.

Trust me, that's enough. Let's try Sid. [Searches] It's a ninety-year-old woman.

Adam Ross

[laughs] I think he was named after his mother.

Alright, Don Flack.

Adam Ross

Don Flack.

Adam Ross

Wow, six Don Flacks.

Adam Ross

I like that name. Don Flack. [Deep voice] Detective Don Flack.

(sifting through the vulture's nest) You are having as much fun as I am, now, buddy?

Adam

Welcome to my world, Messer. The low man on the totem pole gets all the exciting stuff.

Yeah! And what does that make me?

Adam

Low-man-on-totem's-pole friend

You know, I'm curious. What was going through your mind when that bomb went off?

Adam

Well, uh, you know how they say your entire life is supposed to flash before your eyes when you think you're gonna die?

Yeah, I'm familiar with that one. Yeah.

Adam

The only thing I could muster up is when Joey Allen beat me in the head during a dodge ball game in third grade.

What if she has twins, Adam? You hear stories about people being completely surprised. And you've seen Lindsay, I mean she's huge.

Adam

Whoa.

She knows it!

Adam

Relax, you saw the ultrasound. It's not twins, all right? You gonna be okay?

No, no, I'm not. I might go into cardiac arrest once she's giving birth.

Adam

How's Lindsay?

Seven hours and counting.

Adam

She dilated past one centimeter yet?

(pause) That's kind of a personal question, Adam.

Adam

Oh! I'm sorry, I have - I just have eighteen hours and fifteen minutes in the Hours of Labor office pool... six hundred bucks on the line, yo!

Adam, go get a set of keys to a car, any car. Meet me in the garage in five minutes. My water just broke. (as Adam's looks dumbstruck) I'm about to go into labor and you are taking me to the hospital. Go!

Adam

Okay. (walks off in the wrong direction)

Adam...

Adam

(comes back and goes the right way) Yeah, wrong way, sorry, j... just relax. Everything's going to be okay.

How's Lucy?

She's great. Her first visit to the lab is a big hit.

(looking across the hall to where Lucy is surrounded by admirers) What, uh...what's Blake doing right now?

Oh, he's so good with babies. She adores him.

No, she doesn't adore him. The only man in her life is me. (going over To Blake) Hey, buddy! Don't you have some DNA to look at?

Adam

(as Lindsay chuckles) Watch out, Blake, here comes daddy!

Adam

(sees Danny slowly walking down the hallway with the a cane) Race you to the end of the hallway. Oh, hey! Just a little humor there.

Yeah, well, uh, where are we at on this hotel-room murder?

Adam

Well, behind door number one, we have a silver vase, champagne bottle and all the matching stemware. Behind door number two, we have a wool ski-mask, presumably worn by the killer. So, what's it going to be, Messer?

It's going to be door number one.

Adam

Ah. Feeling lucky about getting some prints, huh?

No, it's just a little closer.

Adam

This guy was kinky with his food.

Care to elaborate on that?

Adam

I think he was sploshing. A sploshing party is an event where a group of people get together and they experience food in a, uh, sensual way. They, um, caress their bodies with foods of different textures and temperatures, and it, uh... it arouses and stimulates and... they say that it excites them and-and... well, I just, again, it's what I've… I've heard, I...

There are specific locations for these...?

Sploshing parties.

Adam

Oh, you can go to a Web site and get an invitation.

[Adam Lindsay and Danny in the garage, putting together a burnt race car]

Somebody did a bad thing to a good fencooler.

Adam

You a racing fan?

Anything that rips it up 200 miles an hour, you gotta respect.

Haha...that's my girl. You grow up in Montana and you love race cars.

LLinds

Maybe stop cars, but open wheel...that's a whole different thing.

Adam

I know what you mean. Paddle-shift versus stick, front rear wings and you have the whole LCD steering wheel that you basically need an engineering degree to operate.

You race?

Adam

Playstation.

[Lindsay laughs]

Adam

Those games are very realistic.

All right, Speed Racer, calm down.
