Voight was standing in the middle of the room, the whole team around him. The board was covered in pictures and information of Jason, his history and the place that he had taken Matt.
"How could we have missed this? I mean he was dead when i checked, and i checked!" Halsted exclaimed.
"We are not blaming this on anyone here!" Voight said. "But we need to catch this guy and quickly. He is a threat to Matt, Gabby, their baby, 51 and the public. We need to find him!"
Lindsay walked up to the whiteboard with a questioning look on her face. "Didn't Gabby say that Jason must have been working for someone?"
"Yea - it was Matt's ex's father. Errr...Jeff Thomas i think that she said." Antonio spoke.
"Ok. Well maybe if we find Jeff then he may lead us to Jason." Ruzek suggested.
"Jason Cole is ex-navy. A plan like this is what he would want us to form. We need to go straight for him." Olinsky suggested.
"Alvin's right. Going right for him is not what he would expect." Voight clarified. "What do we have so far?"
Lindsay retold his history and the story about Matt's kidnapping but nothing made sense. How could he just disappear?
"Hey! Guys, i have an idea!" Atwater spoke. "Maybe Jason was shot in the stomach or something. We all left pretty quickly because we had to get Gabby to the hospital, so what if Thomas was waiting for us to leave then he came and got Jason then took him away."
"Yea but how would he know that we were going to breach the building at that time?" Antonio asked.
"He must have an inside informant. Someone here at the 21st."
They all looked around at eachother.
"Come on guys, it was none of us. We were all here together all the time!" Lindsay reassured.
"She is right! It has to be one of the uniforms!"
"Hold on!" Burgess said walking towards the board then turning to face the rest of the team. "That new officer that has been up answering the phones has been a bit shifty. I think that his name was...errr....Elliot. Brian Elliot."
"Someone call Platt!" Voight demanded.
Lindsay walked round to her desk and picked up the phone, she pressed '1' and Platt's voice filled the air.
"What's up Erin?"
"Officer Elliot. Where is he?" Lindsay demanded.
"He seemed really angry earlier. He stormed up to the desk and said 'That's it! I've had enough of this job! I quit!' and he stormed out after slamming his badge down on the desk!" Platt exclaimed angrily.
"OK! Thanks Platt!"
"Lindsay?!?-" Platt called as she put the phone down.
"He quit!" Lindsay said with a sigh.
"What?!?"

Gabby walked out of the kitchen as she searched for Burgess's number in her phone.
"Matt?" She called.
"Yea?" He replied as he came down the stairs. "What's up?"
"I was thinking. Every time that we are on shift Burgess isn't, so i was wondering if we could get her to look after Jamie when we are on shift." She said still looking for Burgess's number in her phone and trying to fold up Jamie's blanket and put it in a bag.
