Body's in advanced stage of decomposition.

How far? Maggots and expansion from the gases far or has it popped?

Maggots. We should be able to find how old the body is from those. Multiple crime-scenes, likely. I think what we were at was just the dumping ground.

Killed one place, dumped another, interesting. Any tire tracks or foot prints at the scene?

We've got one footprint that we're hoping to get a good cast of before the elements screw us over. Looks like it might rain.

Got any tents you can put up before it starts? Usually my CSU boys have one handy.

I'll see if we can't round one up.

So, homicide cop then?

That's right. I'm Detective Murphy.

*laughs* Nice to meet you Detective Murphy. I'm Lieutenant Murphy.

*smiles some and shakes her head* Pleasure to meet you, Lieutenant Murphy.

Call me Murphy, everyone does.

Murphy it is. You can call me "Virginia" or whatever else that comes to mind.

Well, usually I call people by their last name but that'll get confusing. Virginia works, unless you've got a nickname.

Exactly. Virginia it is.

So, how long have you been working homicide?

Nearly eight years now.

Not bad.

I like to think I'm doing all right for myself.

Eight years and already a detective that's not bad.

I've wanted this since I was a teenager, so it's nice to have it.

Someone in your family a cop before you?

Not that I know of. It Edgar Allen Poe's Dupin that sparked my interest.

So, you just signed up to be a cop from Dupin?

I researched and I did some non-police work throughout college to be closer and make sure it was what I wanted in reality. But: Pretty much.

And the job hasn't scared you off. Not many people who just fall into this line of work stay around.

It's very demanding, but I don't hate it by any means.

The longer you work, the more demanding it gets.

I'm willing to answer those demands.

That's a good attitude to have. You're going to need it.

And nineteen other "worst pick-up lines ever"...

Cue the rimshot.

Ba dum dum ching.

Funny.
