Stepping into Sully's, Anna gave brief smiles to a few surprised-to-see-her faces and scanned the room for Sheldon. Spotting him at the bar, she pushed her way through the horde and snagged the stool next to his.

"Rate things are going, I shouldn't have moved," she commented as she signalled for a beer. "Talked to Don, been to see Mac, and talked to the ADA today. Lucky me, I get to testify."
