C.J. returns to her office, running into Carol, who shakes her head in response to C.J.'s questioning look. C.J. talks to Carol, trying to find someone who can help Maggie and Jack. But anyone and everyone who might be able to help -- the Assistant Secretary for Indian Affairs, the Deputy Director of Intergovernmental Affairs, the Deputy of Acquisition and Property Management, the Deputy of Tribal Services -- has left for Thanksgiving. Carol says, "Nobody's here." C.J. says, "I'm here! They're here! You're here!" Carol says, sort of under her breath but not so much that C.J. wouldn't hear it, "God knows that." C.J. goes back into her office and then comes right back out, telling Carol to inform Leo's office that she's on her way over.
