What do you mean 'for once you are not scowling'? I only scowl on duty, but that's what I'm paid for! You don't scare crims by just smiling at them (unless you've got a bad dentist...). By the way, I've comandeered Acol's Maya Gold as vital evidence - want a piece to go with your wine? You can dunk it if you want to, you're not in polite company now, dearie.
