The picture above is from the Godiva Awakes that happened in Coventry 2012. Coventry is famous for Lady Godiva. Just thought I'd give you a small history lesson :)

What seems like a few hours later but has actually be two days, Sam wakes up in a dark, dingy room. The door to the room slowly opens and in walks Martin. He walks over to her and lays some clothes down in front of her, some make up and a hairbrush. 'Get ready. We're going out.' He tells her. 'I'll be back in 10 minutes.' As soon as he walks out she picks up the dress that he has given her. 

'Blue?' She thinks to herself. She then looks at everything else he has given her. 'All Blue?' She whispers. She thinks nothing of it, shrugs and gets changed into what he has given her.

Sure enough, after 10 minutes, Martin returns. Sam is dressed and standing waiting for him. 'What do you want Martin?' Sam asks him.

'We're going out.' He informs her. 'If you think about running away, I will kill you.' She nods and follows him out. They get into a car, which within 5 minutes, they pull up in a parking complex. Martin and Sam get out of the car and it drives away. 

'You know I'm FBI. The whole damn agency will be looking for me. Not to mention CPD.' Sam whispers to him.

'They won't think to look for you here though. Come on Sammy. You're supposed to be smart.'

'Coventry. UK.' Sam realises.

'How'd you guess?' Martin asks surprised.

'Three spires.' She starts pointing to the three spires in the distance. 'Millennium place is just around the corner alongside the Coventry Transport Museum and the Sir Frank Whittle Statue.'

'Glad to see you know my home city so well.' Martin smirks as they begin to walk.

'Actually. You were born in Nuneaton which is less than an hour from Coventry on the 4th June 1972, at 4:44am. Your father is actually from Coventry.' Sam says.

'Just checking.' Martin replies. By now, they are at a little coffee shop called "Esquires Coffee." They walk in and as they get to the counter Martin turns to Sam. 'Order our drinks.' He says handing Sam a UK £20 note. 'I'm going to release myself.' He says whispering in her ear. Just as he leaves the barrister asks for her order. She asks for a tall latte for Martin and a gingerbread milkshake for herself.

'Anything else?' The barrister asks.

'Yeah. Have you got a pen and paper?' Sam asks.

'Sure.' The barrister replies handing her a slip of paper and a pen. 'I need you to call this number. Tell whoever answers that Samantha Voight is in Coventry, UK.' Sam tells him as she writes down the number to District 21. 'Only do it once I've left. The man who I'm with is a dangerous criminal. He's been on the FBI radar for 10 years. I'm an agent with the FBI counter terrorism task force. Once I've left with the man I came in with, call that number.' The barrister nods and folds the slip of paper and puts it in the pocket of her apron, just as Martin returns.

'That will be £4.98 please.' The barrister smiles. Sam hands over the money, he gives her the change and prepares their drinks. Once they get their drinks they walk to a secluded table.

Just as Sam said to the barrister, as soon as Sam and Martin leave, he calls the number that she gave him.

'District 21. Sergeant Trudy Platt speaking. How can I help?'

'Hi. A woman came in to the coffee shop that I work in and told me to call this number. She said her name is Samantha Voight.' The barrister says.

'Where is she now?' Trudy asks.

'She left. She told me to only call once she left. She was with a man. She said he was a dangerous criminal and that she was an FBI agent.'

'I don't recognise the number you're calling from.'

'Coventry. UK.'

'If they visit again. Call this number straight away.'

'Can I ask what's going on?' The barrister asks but it's too late. Trudy has already put the phone down.

She heads up the stairs and to intelligence. She walks into Hank's office where he is sitting talking to Shaylynn and Kelly. 'Hank. Sam is in the UK, Coventry.'
