Main POV
"More the intellectuals, the better" The Director said as he kept down the receiver.
"This is getting worse than I thought. I just heard from Colin about this- Roger?"
Once his eyes diverted to the Captain, the Director forgot his words. Last time he properly looked at the Captain, he still had his cop hat on.
Now it lay on the table and its owner sat with elbow jacked up on the armrest, fingers pacing on his brow. It was a complete flip from the merry air that was present before, strange enough to ignite the Director's curiosity. He quickly shot a glance at the other lieutenants who had their signature stony looks back. With respect to the situation, the Director could swear those looks could burn through any steel.
"Roger? Wh-"
"This is getting worse than we thought, yes. What did the Colin boy say?" The Captain didn't move his blank stare from the table as he spoke.
"You have my full assurance that its not at all close to whatever you lot is thinking about" The Director had a quick reply due to his eagerness to know the factor that changed the whole mood. After a brief pause, the Captain turned his head slightly to look at the detectives.
"With icing on the top or plain?" He asked them, puzzling the Director.
"Plain"
"Yeah, no time to ice" The answers were equally strange.
The two detectives in civil wear answered in tones matching their trailblazer. The Director felt his frown grow as he shared a look with the DD who strangely wasn't paying any attention to the Director. Instead he was also staring at the Captain meaning he had no clue whatsoever either.
"Right. Fire away then. So, Phil. Alan boy over here" The Captain jerked a thumb at the detective with the laptop. "He's found some details from the little clips the White House was generous enough to give us that has upset the whole crime applecart as well. Surprises me how-"
"It was suicide"
The Director's gaze flicked to Alan, at the interruption. He had his eyes closed for a moment before opening them slowly with a sigh.
"Did you just spoil my-"
"Icing. Yes." Alan cut off his Captain twice in the span of 10 seconds.
The Captain huffed before clearing his throat.
"The end." He announced in a theatrical tone to the Director.
It took a moment for the Director to realize what he had just heard and his frown deepened more.
"Suicide? How?"
"Alan, this is why you should take things slow-"
"What did you find, son?" This time the Director interrupted the Captain by addressing the detective. Alan visibly perked up slightly at being called upon by the mighty Director.
"See for yourself, sir" With that, he passed on his laptop to the Director via the other detective and a disgruntled Captain. There was a sudden hustle in the CIA officers as they straightened up to hear the proof of this news. With the Captain's permission, the laptop was connected to the display behind the Director.
