Whenever Charlotte and Nathan got back to the station, she could feel all eyes were on them. Most likely everyone had heard what had happened with the 118 and those who were close to the crew. "Hey, I heard what happened. I can't believe they think you and the 118 stole that cash," John said walking up to her.
"I know. I'm still trying to wrap my brain around it," Charlotte replied as she saw Detective Armstrong walking into Sergeant Grey's office.
"Grey's still letting you work with all of this happening?" John questioned.
"Yeah, I have to stay with Nathan at all times or another T.O." Charlotte replied as Nathan began to talk to Harper about this situation.
"Are you okay? I heard that they literally dragged you out of your shop," Lucy asked, giving Charlotte a hug.
"Just feeling a tad frazzled, but nothing I can't handle," Charlotte replied, hugging her friend back. Two officers walked past the group of rookies and could feel their eyes on her. "I feel like I'm an animal at a zoo in an exhibit." Charlotte muttered.
"Don't worry, I bet this whole thing will blow over soon and everything will go back to normal," John said.
Charlotte nodded believing what John had said, but deep down she felt like this was going to last a while. She couldn't shake the feeling that this was the beginning of something much bigger.

Charlotte woke up the next morning to someone knocking on her bedroom door, "Go away. I wanna sleep," Charlotte mumbled out pulling her sheets over her head as the door quickly opened and closed behind him. "I said–"
"I think you should get out here..." Jackson said, causing Charlotte to look at him.
"Why? It's seven in the morning. We don't have to be at the station until nine today," Charlotte replied as she sat up in her bed.
"I know, but this is about the... you know, the case," Charlotte raised her eye at him as she heard a draw slam shut.
"They're searching our apartment, aren't they," Charlotte sighed out.
"Yup. Lovely start to our Tuesday morning," Jackson sarcastically said. "Lucy's trying to get them to stop destroying all of her organization she spent hours on."
Charlotte quickly got up and threw on one of Eddie's sweatshirts she had borrowed but never returned. Charlotte and Jackson walked out of her room and heard, "Seriously, I spent hours working on that cabinet!"
"Good morning, to you guys... Did they show you a warrant at least?"
"You know I always ask," Jackson stated, folding his arms over his chest.
"Seriously... the spices? What did they ever do to you?" Lucy asked the officer. "You are so helping me re-organize all of this Charlie!" Lucy said, causing Charlotte to laugh slightly.

Athena had invited Hen and Charlotte over after the whole fiasco that morning with officers serving warrants to everyone. To say Charlotte was slightly annoyed at being woken up to that, wouldn't be a lie.
"Let Robbery-Homicide do their dance, eliminate the obvious suspects and find the real ones. I mean, I know it ain't easy, but you got to let the wheels of justice do their thing," Athena told Hen.
Hen scoffed, "Those wheels... those wheels have a way of sometimes crushing people like me," Hen stated.
"Oh, come on. You don't think–" Charlotte began to say.
