It was a new day and a new year for Charlie, who not only was his wife pregnant, expecting a newborn child to come in months but also getting new people to join his Private Investigation business and remodeling his company. Nicholas and Phillip were back at school, Tara and Cecily were at home since they had the day off from their jobs, and knew that Cecily would take a maternity leave when her pregnancy progressed. Charlie today meets with someone new, a friend of Aidan Devane, new PI, Leo Dupre,.
At the renamed PI business building, Pine Valley Special Investigation Unit, the head Private Investigator and Direction Of Operations, Charlie Brent’s in his office working on important cases to assign his Private Investigators that revolved around what the services were, putting them in files so that he can be organized and not miss out on anything. Today’s meeting with Leo was to mostly bring him on board and show him around the place, getting him to expect what it’s going to be like working with other PI’s.
Charlie then heard his secretary beeped through the intercom on his phone. “Mister Brent, Leo Dupre’s here to see you”. He nodded and pressed the button. “Okay, send him in please”. The door opened and Charlie smiled.
“Welcome and good mourning Leo, take a seat and welcome to Pine Valley Special Invesitgation Unit as a Private Investigator. Im Charlie Brent, the Director Of Operations and Head Private Investigator” he said.

Now that Leo and Greenlee were back from Europe, Leo knew he wanted to try to do something more with his life. He had to become someone worthy of a woman like Greenlee. He didn't want to have to depend on her and her family's support for them to get by. He knew she didnt need his support financially, having a company of her own, but he wanted to be able to contribute something and show he could actually accomplish something. Before he had left Aidan Devane had come to him about working for him in the PI business, but by the time they had returned to Pine Valley, Aidan had left on an assignment and referred him to someone else in town who he thought he could work with, the Private Investigators even had their own office, which Leo considered a step up from the slightly sketchy nature of his own meeting with Aidan.
Leo had put on a nice suit and headed into the office, waiting outside while the secretary announced his arrival. Leo went inside the office as he was told and smiled at the man.
"It's nice to meet you" Leo said shaking his hand and taking a seat across from Charlie. "You've got a nice place here"

“Thanks, this place started back in the summer of last year in 2010, we had to do some rebuilding around here in the last couple of months and everything’s good. This isn’t my first time as Private Investigator as I started back in 1994. But anyway, thanks for coming to Pine Valley Special Investigative Unit. As you know Aidan Devane is away on assignment and contacted me about you coming. I want to bring you on board and show you around the place to brand new features and people who you’ll be working with” said Charlie.
“Here at the PV SIU, we specialize in the following services, workers comp fraud investigation surveillance, all types of general liability fraud investigations, auto, medical and employee fraud investigations, background checks, courthouse searches, claimant statements, witness locates and interviews, civil litigation support ,criminal defense matters and everything else. Now I know that this is your first time so i’ll help you on upcoming cases and give you important tips on what and what not to do”
“Are there any questions so far that you want to ask me to learn more about the PI business?” Charlie asked. He went over the basics and now Charlie wanted to hear Leo's questions, just to see if he needs more clarification on other things.

Leo listened carefully to Charlie explain more about the business, telling him about the types of cases that their company specialized in. He gave a nod understanding after he was done explaining. He thought for a moment as Charlie asked him if he had any more questions so far.
"None at the moment, but I'm sure that I'll have some as we go along" Leo said, though he had a feeling that this was something he could catch onto quickly and be good at. He wasn't sure why but the idea of being a PI was something that really appealed to him.
"I guess my only question right now is what do I do first" He asked with a smile.

When Charlie heard Leo asked what’s next, he smiled. “Well you already have your PI license since you met Aidan so that’s a good start. Now here’s what’s next, at Pine Valley Special Investigative Unit, I don’t force any of my Private Investigators on this but here in the state of Pennsylvania, you’ll need a permit to carry a weapon, mostly a gun since PI’s use that. Its up to you” he said as Charlie got our his own permit from under his desk.
“In the state of Pennsylvania….PI’s here in the state of Pennsylvania can also arrest people, meaning that you can make a citizens arrest. After the citizens arrest, you can bring them down to the station or call the PVPD about it, tell them what the person did and that officer will take them down. This is all brand new for you Leo but like I said before, it’s a learning process” he said.

Leo nodded as Charlie explained to him about needing a permit to carry a gun, if he wanted to be able to have one, and how PI's were able to make a citizen's arrest until the police showed up. "Well I think if I'm going to be making any arrests, it's probably going to be best if I do get a permit to carry a gun" He said, thinking it would be a good idea to have something to use to protect himself with.
"So how often have you had to make arrests? Is that something that happens pretty regularly?" He asked curiously, wondering how this would all work and wanting to learn more.

“To be honest, when I was a Private Investigator for the first time, years ago, I couldn’t make any arrest. This is just brand new and what I looked into when I came back into Pine Valley. But im sure that other
Private Investigators have made arrest based upon people in cases who committed crimes and such, whether they’re not telling the truth, or holding evidence, tampering with them. It‘s happened to them on a regular basis” Charlie said to Leo explaining him the information
“Anyway, I think you’ll do great here at Pine Valley Special Investigative Unit now that you‘re set. You’ll be working with other Private Investigators on cases that I’ll assign you on. Like I said before, you’re brand new so and along the way I’ll help you. I‘ll call you in the next couple of days for the first case” he said and knew that Leo would do a great job of being a PI but this is just the beginning. Charlie wants to see Leo succeed and looking at it, Leo would do just that.
