[He knows the same, and has investigated cases in which similar things had happened, but it still felt like one of those things that only happens to other people. Even being a psychologist and therefore knowing better, it still doesn't help.

But the question does, because he can't say no.]

I don't know, maybe. Someone might notice I haven't checked in.

[Someone could call him and go looking for him if he doesn't answer. Aubrey's been tailing people and might be nearby. A bystander could walk into the parking garage and call for help. Booth could decide he's needed as backup after all and just show up.

Or none of that could happen. But then again, it could.]

Don't make Rosen lecture you on the negative effects of alcohol on your vital systems, Young Man

I wish I could tell you that they will. That absolutely you will get help and it will be ok.

[However his expression is growing more grim]

But I can't promise anything. I can only hope that that will be the case.

[He offers a small smile, half sad and half not.]

Any hope is better than none. Thank you.

[He means it.]
