Molly quietly moans as she and Luke make out in the storage closet.

"You know, this is very high school behavior." Luke mumbles against her jaw.

"Yeah, well... that's what keeping a secret involves." Molly says, her voice in a low whisper. "Unless you want everybody on our asses about this."

"They're gonna find out eventually." Luke says, squeezing her hip.

"Yeah, well... we can deal with the paperwork later." Molly says, capturing her lips with his again.

They only get a few more moments before both phones are going off making them groan.

Molly takes her phone out, showing Penelope's text about a case.

"This job really knows how to kill the mood." Molly grumbles, fixing her shirt.

Luke helps her fix her hair and wipes away some lipstick that smudged.

"Okay. You look..." Luke looks over her. "You look good. Normal."

"As do you." Molly says. "Who first?"

"Ladies first." Luke motions to the door.

"Okay." Molly nods. She opens the door, peeking out, and then leaving. She's walking to the bullpen to get her go bag.

"Hey, you." She jumps at Penelope's voice. "Where were you?"

"I-I was in the bathroom." Molly says.

"The bathroom's that way." Penelope points to the opposite direction Molly just came from.

"Yeah. Yeah, no, I-I went to a different one. This one is just... so weird sometimes." Molly says.

"Weird how?" Penelope frowns.

"I just... there's noises sometimes. And you know how I feel about ghosts." Molly says. Penelope's eyes squint as she stares at her friend. "How you feeling, honey? Are you-- are you okay?"

"Yeah. Yeah, I'm-- I'm good." Penelope says.

"You sure?" Molly asks. "There's been a lot going on, you just went through--"

"I can handle it." Penelope assures.

"Okay." Molly nods. "Just talk to me if you need anything."

"Thanks." Penelope weakly smiles. "You should get going, though. Got that case."

"Right. Yeah. I'll see you later." Molly kisses her on the cheek before rushing to her desk.

"Hey." Luke is briskly walking over. "How you doing?"

"I'm fine, newbie." Penelope sneers. She frowns, glancing at where he came from. "Where were you?"

"Uh... just... taking a stroll." Luke shrugs. "You know, it's a big building. Always finding new stuff." He chuckles, quickly going to his desk.

Penelope frowns, looking into the bullpen. She watches the two as they get their stuff. She sees Luke's mouth, his voice is low so she can't hear, but whatever he says makes Molly laugh.

"So as far as anyone knows, Karl and Dorothy Elgin lived totally isolated." JJ says. "No kids, no family, no friends."

"50 years. I mean, they had to have some interaction with other people." Luke says.

"5 bodies and counting, all young females." Emily states. "Coroner says the victims have been there for a while."

"Are we looking at a husband and wife killing team here?" Tara asks. "It's rare, but it does happen."

"In England, Rosemary West assisted her husband Fred in the murder of 12 individuals over a 20 year span without detection." Spencer says.
