Teresa ends up cracking the case herself, Patrick says that if she called to go back to D.C. Abbot could send her to D.C. instantly; but Teresa doesn’t want to go now that they’ve got a lead with the case.

Patrick and Teresa arrive at Blue Bird, they enter and Patrick gets a suite for them; he then tells the woman behind the desk that if someone calls for Greta that they should be sent to Patrick’s room without being told he’s there and to send them there. Teresa enters her suite and finds a dress on her bed, she calls Patrick and tells him it’s too much. Patrick says its fine since it’ll be there last case, he tells her he’ll see her at dinner and hangs up. Patrick gets a call right away and from Cho and Abbot they’re at the lobby.
