"Why are you so giggly today?" Joe questioned me, noticing my smile that didn't seem to be leaving anytime soon.

I shrugged, "I'm sure you'll find out soon." I said, walking away from him and to the front of Dr. Wells' house. Which seemed like a freaking castle compared to mine!

Apparently, some sort of messed up prank call happened the night before. Which brought me here now. As the door opened, Joe and Barry appeared at my sides.

Barry glanced at me, smiling almost as much as me. Our smiles dropped as we stared at Dr. Wells' house in aw when the door had completely opened. The first thing seen was Dr. Wells sitting, waiting for us. But past him was a beautiful house waiting to be explored! Although, it seemed very plain.

"Damn." I muttered.

"Come in." I hear him say. As we took steps inside, I continued to analyze the house with curiosity. "Look, Joe, I apologize for all this. It just--it really feels like a case of so much for so little. The police should not have called." All three of us follow Dr. Wells as he strolls to the crime scene. "I got a prank call before all this happened."

"This feels like more than just a prank call, Docter." Joe says, scanning the broken glass scattered along the floor.

"Well, there are those who feel I did not suffer enough for the particle accelerator explosion of last year, and of them act on it." He says.

"You're not hurt, are you?" I ask, checking for bruises or cuts of some sort. To my relief, he shakes his head.

"Dr. Wells. Dr. Wells, are you okay?" Caitlin asks, rushing in, with Cisco close behind.

"Dr. Snow, I'm fine." He assured, just as he did to me seconds ago. "I'm--I'm fine. A little chilly. Otherwise, I'm fine. Hello Cisco. Make yourselves at home as best you can. I'm gonna make a hotel reservation." He strolls away, pulling out his phone.

"Yo." Cisco laughs, looking around the place. "This place is so sick."

"I know right." I nodded. He looked at me with a goofy smile.

"Yeah," Barry said, "What took you guys so long?"

"We got lost." Cisco looks to Caitlin.

Caitlin shrugs, "We've never been here before." I raise my eye brows at them.

"Seriously?" I ask.

"Really? Never?" Barry adds.

"He tends to keep his private life private." Caitlin explains.

"I canvassed the street." Eddie says, walking up to Joe and I as we talked about the case. "No other reports of vandalism. No strange cars. Get this...Wells says he's right there when it happened. All that glass shattering down around him and he can't walk?"

"And he didn't have a scratch on him." Joe and I say in sync.

"So you're saying he's lying?" I ask Eddie.

He shrugs, "I'm saying this doesn't make sense. It's not adding up. Either he's not telling us everything, or there is something freaky going on."

Before we could discuss the situation longer, Barry called me over. I left the two and joined Barry.

"A little help?" He asked, motioning his head to the broken glass. Knowing what he meant, I slipped on gloves.

"Just like a puzzle." I told myself.

In seconds, Barry and I managed to put the glass back together in place. It was still in pieces, we simply slid the glass into it's original place.
