As Captain Sawyer wrote the Robin case under Driver's name on the white board, she called all the detectives to settle down. "Hey! Settle down and let's get this done. At 12:17 this morning, we get the call from 4422 South Henderson about a body of a young man dead back behind his apartment building. --"

She turned to face her detectives. It had only been a few hours since the body of Robin was found and most detectives were called in on this. "Examination tells us that the costume and equipment found on the body match our reports on Robin. Therefore, until we prove otherwise, we must work as if we are investigating the death of the Boy Wonder."

She motioned to the detectives she assigned. "Driver and MacDonald are primary, Allen and Montoya are secondary. Sarge will lead a canvas of the area for some damn witnesses." Sitting back with his arms folded across his chest, Sarge looked unimpressed but he agreed.

"Batman a suspect?" Detective Chandler asked from her desk, genuinely curious about that.

Detective Montoya spoke up, glancing back to Chandler as she leaned back in her chair. "He came to us on the roof, said something about Robin being in Bludhaven."

"He also wants to stay out of his investigation," Detective Allen followed.

"Yeah, but -- is he a suspect?"

Captain Sawyer put her hands on her hips, looking to clarify the position Batman in light of this case. "I want him to come to us. We're not calling him a suspect -- yet. Not unless we get some evidence. I want that Batarang found on the roof wiped for prints just in case." She took a deep breath. "Allen, Montoya -- head down to Arkham and question the usual suspects. Procjnow and Burke, go with them. The rest of you, start looking into Robin -- anything. His enemies, acquaintances -- and not just in Gotham."

"I don't have to tell you that the media is already all over this. We have to move fast. Go."

Maggie Sawyer climbed up the stairs to the floor where the Major Crimes Unit was housed, passing through uniformed officers and some other detectives. It was 5:45 A.M. on Tuesday morning and everyone in the Gotham City Police Department were switching from the evening shift to the day shift. That also meant the detectives of the Major Crimes Unit were either ending their evenings or starting their mornings -- that is, if those on the night shift weren't going into overtime.

Captain Sawyer walked through her squad room before heading to her office, shedding her blazer after setting her to-go coffee on her desk. She glanced up and forced a smile at Lt. Harvey Bullock who gave her the highlights of the night shift.

Out in the squad room, detectives mingled and greeted each as they switched shifts. Detective Eric Cohen balanced a double dozen box of donuts as he headed to the break room, where a fresh pot of coffee was already brewing thanks to his parner, Andi Kasinsky. Tommy Burke was leaning back in his chair, relaying stories of his escapades while his partner Dagmar Procjnow rolled her eyes and read the news. Meanwhile, Sarge and Crowe were grabbing their coats and continue their usual debate as they prepare to make way for the day detectives.

The smell of coffee permeates the squad room before the sun even rises.
