Gordon sits at his desk flipping through some files, and thinking.

Sarah knocks on your door, pausing in the entrance to lean 
   slightly against the frame. "Jim?"

Gordon motions you inside "Come in Lieutenant."

Sarah shuts the door, before moving inside, wearily nearly 
   collapsing in the chair. "Have a few?"

Gordon glances up and smiles a bit "For you? Always."

Sarah gets a small smile on her face, fleeting though it may be. 
   She crosses her legs, one drifting over the other, bent at the 
   knee. For a moment she remains silent then comments quietly. 
   "Jim, there's just something funny with the entire 'Joker' case. 
   Something that I've been thinking I've over missed."

Gordon folds his hands together and nods slowly "There's always 
   something about Joker. I've been thinking about the case as 
   well."

Sarah hrms, leg swinging back and forth as she relaxes in the 
   chair a bit, fingers moving into her lap, "Jim, I'd like to 
   take a look at Christiansen's file again. Something's not 
   right there. The Diamond selling for that much? How'd the person 
   get upstairs to give him the toxin?" Her eyebrows furrow down 
   more. "That night, there were two sets of foot prints. One 
   that matched, or theoretically matched the Joker's.. the other 
   were unknown. And its just not in with the Joker's MO to 
   repeat a crime."

Gordon leans back in his chair "Rich people have rich friends. 
   And a diamond like that is priceless." He pauses for a bit and 
   leans forward again "But it couldn't hurt to check the file again."

Sarah shakes her head. "Jim.. Not that much." She leans forward as 
   well placing her hands on the desk, leg uncrossing as she 
   does so.

You say "Jim, ten years ago the Diamond was worth only thirty 
   thousand dollars. Now.. its being sold in the 'million's 
   range? Somethings *not* right there."

Sarah's hand waves out. "If I had a diamond that would do that, 
   I'd be rich as well. But they -don't- go up /that/ much .. 
   you know?"

Sarah hmms, fingers tapping on the desk. "Who do we know that 
   could tell us .. we could consult with about such things?"

Gordon glances towards the window, then back "But the do go up."

Sarah's eyebrows arches. "A thousand fold?"

Sarah shakes her head, hair bouncing around her shoulders.

Gordon hms and nods "Well we can check the diamond again. Maybe 
   talk to a few local jewelers about it's value. But I don't 
   think we can discount the fact that the Joker is still 
   involved here."

Sarah hmms? She looks a tad distracted. "Oh, I'm not saying 
   -that-.. Just this buyer so soon.. The fact its being sold 
   for millions. And, I'd like to go over his house again. 
   Upstairs, giving it a more thorough examination. Plus, after 
   we get the information, I'd like to talk with this.. 'buyer'."

Gordon nods "You don't need to ask me for permission Lieutenant. 
   But a search of the house so long after the crime may not 
   reveal too many clues."

Sarah's fingers continue to tap on the desk. "I know."

Sarah continues to drill her finger on the desk, before glancing 
   at you quietly. "What have you come up with? Any.. late 
   night visitors?" She half smirks, before giving you a 
   serious glance.

Gordon smirks "For once he is just as lost as us... " He folds 
   his hands together again "But one thing that I've found odd 
   is that while it usually isn't the Joker's MO to repeat a 
   crime. It seems clear that he is doing so."

Sarah leans back in her chair, a frown creasing her forehead. 
   "So it seems."

Gordon says "It could be that maybe he's trying to finished 
   what he started in some way... Since usually his crime spree 
   has been foiled at some point."

Sarah's fingers rub her chin as she hmms to herself softly. 
   "Finished what he started. In the Diamond case, what was he 
   attempting to do?"

Gordon hms "Well his goal was to steal the diamond, and kill 
   off it's owner. He did succeed on the later... Perhaps we 
   shouldn't look just at the past case, but what effect these 
   crimes might be having on other things. If the Joker still 
   wants the diamond, which he may then we should keep an eye on 
   it. As you said."

Sarah hmms, fingers tapping on the desk, for a moment, she 
   just muses. "Joker steals the diamond twice, a diamond that is 
   only worth .. maybe .. thirty thousand. Now.. a buyer for 
   millions. " She continues to muse, her eyebrows furrowing 
   down. "Wonder how this person will pay Christiansen.. And the 
   Joker must have known by the rise of press, the diamond would 
   go up /some/.. but then we have the guns too.."

Gordon hms "Good point. Not only how it will be paid for, 
   but when? Perhaps he's planning on killing two birds with 
   one stone. He could show up when the money is passed, and 
   steal both the diamond, and cash. "

Sarah's gaze turns onto you. "Money, diamond, guns, he'd have 
   enough to do /anything/ he wanted in Gotham, Jim.."

Gordon nods slowly, glancing at you from behind his glasses 
   "He would. A perfect crime don't you think?"

Sarah's mouth twists into a deep scowl. "Almost too perfect."

Sarah lets out a soft, disgusted sigh, "Then again, it does 
   sound almost too perfect and I'm jumping up a wrong path."

Gordon says "It's only a hunch. Question Christiansen again, 
   and visit his house. And check out this buyer. I'll look 
   over some of the Joker's past cases see what else matches. 
   Also we'll find out when the exchange for this diamond will 
   take place."

Sarah nods, standing up, before edging herself onto the corner
   of the desk, eyebrows furrowed down. She brushes a strand of 
   hair away from her face, before asking quietly. "Even if 
   this doesn't lead us anywhere, its more than I've had in awhile."

Gordon nods "Exactly."

Sarah's mouth twists a moment, before she lets out another hrm, 
   standing, facing you. "I'm going to go see what I can find, 
   and get these going."

Gordon nods slowly "Very well Lieutenant...." he pauses then 
   looks to you "I know this case has been hard.. on us both. 
   But don't worry we'll figure it out. And after maybe we can 
   have a little R and R. Okay?"

Sarah's gaze turns onto you, perhaps a bit sad, perhaps a bit 
   of a smirk, as she comments. "Jim, while that would be nice, 
   I sincerely doubt.. that will ever happen." She stands up 
   slowly, moving over to give you a soft peck on your cheek. 
   "I'll be at my desk."

Gordon swivels his chair watching you as you leave "I can dream 
   cant I?" He winks.

Sarah pauses at the door frame, turning around to give you a 
   wink in return. "Oh, I think thats allowed Commissioner. " 
   She grins, before turning around, making her way out.

You open the door and leave the office.
