After the call from Chief Karen Vick, Deputy District Attorney Connie Rubirosa drove from LA to Santa Barbara to interview a witness being held by the SBPD. She reported to Chief Vick’s office late in the afternoon.
“Chief, thank you for holding Cruz. Lt. Gonzalez sends her regards,” she said while shaking Vick’s hand.
“No problem at all, Ms. Rubirosa.” She motioned toward the others in the room. “This is Det. Lassiter and Det. O’Hara…”
Shawn Spencer interrupted. “And I’m Shawn Spencer, official psychic.” He held Connie’s hand in both of his and nodded his head toward Gus. “This is my partner, Khandi Alexander.”
Gus smiled at Connie. “How you doin’, baby?”
Connie extracted her hand from Shawn’s. “Right. Uh, Chief Vick…may I see Cruz now?”
Shawn interrupted again. “I will take you to him, Mizzzzzzzz Rubirosa. You will need a translator and I am quite the ‘espaniel’ expert.” Adopting a Spanish accent, Shawn continued, “Perhaps you have heard of me…I played Chad on the very popular telenovela Explosion Gigantesca de Romance.”
Connie switched into “DA mode” and arched an eyebrow. “Well, Mr. Spencer, I am perfectly fluent in español since my parents emigrated from Spain. And now that you mention it, my mother used to love Explosion Gigantesca de Romance. She said she had to stop watching it after a character named Chad ruined it for her.”
Shawn shifted his eyes from Connie’s piercing gaze. “What’s that Khandi? There’s a licorice whip emergency? So sorry, all...we must be on our way.” He pulled Gus from Vick’s office and hurried out of the building.
Lassiter grinned. “Nice one, Ms. Rubirosa. How did you do that?”
“Do what?”
“Get rid of Spencer. I’ve been trying for years.” He led Connie toward the interrogation room. “Come on, I’ll take you to Cruz and you can teach me your secret.”
