"Happy Turkey Day!" Charles grinned as he walked to his desk.

"Yes! Right out of the gate," Jake smirked as he leaned against Natasha's table.

"What? What's going on?" Charles' eyebrows furrowed as he looked around the bullpen seeing everyone marking something down.

"We're playing Boyle Bingo, Thanksgiving edition," Jake smiled as he held out the Boyle Bingo card.

"Everyone filled out their cards with possible Charles-related scenarios. First to bingo gets 100 bucks," Amy explained.

"I had 'Boyle calls it Turkey Day' on the center square," Jake smirked proudly and stuck his tongue out at Natasha. He'd thought she wouldn't get many right seeing as she hadn't been around Charles as long as he had and she had made a point not to let him see what she wrote down.

"Let me see that. 'Boyle explains that they ate lobsters at the first Thanksgiving.' They did. Back in that time, they called lobsters 'ocean bugs'," Charles paused and sighed, "And I'll just mark it off for you."

"I think I got the winning card here," Jake called out, "Boyle tells us that he played Pocahontas in his third grade play."

Charles smiled. "All the girls were too big."

"This is a fun one," Gina called, "Boyle says, 'Gobble, gobble, gobble.'"

"Well, now that I know you want me to say that, I'll just say it with two gobbles. Gobble, gobble," He paused, "Gobble. God, it just sounds right that way. Ugh. I don't like this game."

"Ha!" Rosa smirked, "'Boyle objects to Boyle Bingo.'"

"Come on, guys," Charles sighed.

"Boyle says, 'Come on, guys.' That's two for Terry," Terry held up his card proudly.

"Well, guess what. I can spoil your little game by sitting over here quietly all day and doing nothing," Charles huffed and made his way to his chair, "Oh! Aah!"

Jake winced as his best friend missed his chair and fell to the floor. "Anybody have 'Boyle falls on the floor?' No one?"

"That's a victory. That's a victory for Boyle. Boom!"

Everyone smiled. "Boyle says, 'Boom!'"

"Oh and I did have 'Boyle falls on the floor.'" Natasha called out with a smirk.

"No way," Jake laughed, "Then why didn't you say anything."

"I like to dangle hope in front of people like a cat toy and pull it away at the best moment."
