She wanted out of here.
ASAP.
That was looking slim to none.

When they walked in, everyone looked. Elizabeth was with Rayna, and her team.
There were dogs, cats, and people everywhere. Behind the counter, there was a Native woman, and the second she saw them, she stood up.
“Hey,” she said. “It’s so good to see you.”
Elizabeth smiled and wiggled her fingers to get her to follow her to a quiet corner. As she did, security blocked for her, just in case.
The last thing she needed was a Native lip reader catching on.
Elizabeth read her name tag.
“Hey, Enola. Let’s cut to the chase here. I need to talk to the doctor.”
She wasn’t sure why.
“Has something happened to your pets?” she asked, completely confused, as she glanced over at the Chief of Police.
Elizabeth shook her head.
“No, just get me to a room to talk to the doctor. I’ll explain to the vet.”
The woman didn’t hesitate.
Immediately, she walked back over to Takoda, and Gene, as Ethan and Callen were talking to Natives in the room to distract them.
As they waited, it didn’t take long for a Native man to come into the room and motion for her to follow. Well, follow she did.
When Gene, Takoda, and Rayna joined her, the man did the introductions.
“I’m Doctor Elsu Chayton. The receptionist said you had a problem.”
She pointed to the badge.
“It’s not with my dogs. We’re working an investigation here,” she said, as the doctor sat on the stool and they took chairs.
“Okay, with what?” he asked, glancing over at Rayna, but she was staying silent.
For Elizabeth, it was best to just be direct.
“Do you use chloroform here?” she asked.
He nodded.
“We do if we have a quick sedation and a particularly snippy dog that likes arms as chew toys.”
She was on the right track.
