Kelly is sitting in the common room when Natalie comes in. Kelly gets up to leave
"Stay! Hear me out!" Natalie says
Kelly sits and stares at her
"She came at me! And I know that's no excuse! But she thought I had feelings for you! And flew off the handle at me! I'm her Luitenent Kelly! I can't let her away with that!" Natalie says as Kelly's face falls
"I didn't know" Kelly says followed by a long sigh
"I know you didn't! But I'm putting Stella on sick leave for a week! Until she clears her head! Just giving you the heads up!" Natalie says smiling
"No! Your totally right to do that!" Kelly says as Natalie walks away
Natalie is in her quarters when Boden appears at the door
"He chief! What's up?" Natalie says
"Stella Kidd? Why is she on sick leave?" Boden asks confused
"Oh! She wasn't feeling well and I sent her home! Better to be safe than sorry!" Natalie says smiling
"Right?" Boden says not believing her story
"Her replacement starts in an hour!" Boden says
"Do you have a name?" Natalie asks
"I do... it's ummm... Grant Holland" Boden says looking through the papers in his hand
"Great!" Natalie says before Boden walks away
Natalie goes to find kelly and Casey and finds them on the roof smoking a cigar. She climbs up the ladders to greet them
"Hey Lewis!" Casey says enthusiastically
"What's up boys?" Natalie says sitting down next to them
"Did you get you replacement yet?" Kelly asks
"He's starting in an hour but I do have a name! It's Grant Holland?" Natalie asks
"Ohhh! Tough luck!" Casey says laughing
"What?" Natalie says concerned
"He's one of the worst guys you can get! He's a floater!" Kelly says smiling
"He got his old Luitenent hurt because he didn't have her back! He's still a candidate!" Casey says laughing
"This is no laughing matter! And why do I feel like you guys are busting my balls?" Natalie says confused
Kelly and Casey look at each other and burst out laughing
"I hate you both! Your meant to be Luitenents! Your responsible for 5 men!" Natalie says annoyed
"I'm only responsible for 3!" Kelly says laughing
"Oh shut it Kelly!" Natalie says folding her arms
"We've never met him before! I'm sure he will be fine!" Casey says reassuring Natalie
"How can you know? What if he's dead happy all the time?" Natalie says putting her head into her hands
"Who's that?" Casey says looking down
There is a man skipping up the driveway
"My new driver on 81!" Natalie says before letting out a big sigh
