Goose: Hi, thank you so much for coming in.

Hengel: Anything I can do to help.

Goose: I am so sorry for your loss, but we are doing everything we can to catch your husband's killer. We just have a few questions, if that is all right.

Hengel: Of course.

Goose: So where were you between 13:00 and 17:00?

Hengel: I was at work.

Goose: Can anyone vouch for that?

Hengel: Yeah, the other nurses and the patient I was with.

Goose: Where do you work?

Hengel: Mary Imogene Bassett Hospital.

Goose: And what was the name of the patient that you were with?

Hengel: Robert Burn, he was in for a burst appendix.

Goose: Thank you. Can you think of anyone that might want to harm your husband?

Hengel: Yeah. Everyone he put in jail.

Goose: Put in jail?

Hengel: Yeah, he was a lawyer.

Goose: Thank you for your time.

Hengel: Anytime.

After the interview, Penny Goose turned to her partner, best friend and the second smartest detective on the team, Alisha Michels. "Turns out, he was a lawyer. Can you pull up a list of people he put in jail?" Penny asked her. "Of course, you still up for tonight?" Alisha replied. "My house, 8 pm?" Penny responded. "Absolutely." She spoke.

Penny turned to the chief. "So sad someone so aspiring had to go so quickly." He said and walked off. Alisha came back with many pieces of paper in her hand. "Here is a list of everyone our vic put in jail, and just a btw, it's a lot." She warned her best friend. "Thanks, go through it with me?" Penny hoped. "Fine," Alisha sighed "but Harry is joining us."

"That's all right with me," Penny shrugged "Harry, you busy?" She asked.

"Nah, why?" He looked at the girls suspiciously. "We need your help with something." Alisha replied, looking innocently at him. "Fine, what is it?" He agreed. The two best friends looked at each other, mischievously. "Oh no, what have I signed up for?" He asked regrettably. "Look through this, for us please?" Penny asked him. "Fine! Luther, I need help!" Harry shouted across the room to his work partner, Luther Hunter. The two girls stood up and left.
