[If there's one thing Ray knows Fraser will very politely try to avoid is Fed involvement. They screwed up too often and endangered too many lives to ever be worth supporting. Ray, of course, just hated them on principle.

He nods along to Fraser's ideas and considers everything they need to do once they get into the station. Of course, Welsh would want to speak to Ray the second he stepped inside, but at least now they had a fairly solid reason for their lateness. They were in, that must be worth something, although Welsh likely won't approve of the lack of communication.

Ray's line of thought is diverted as he feels the hand placed on his knee, eyes flicking down at him and then up into Fraser's eyes.]

It was nothin'. You got the tough part, buddy. Tonight is gonna be worse. Maybe we can get in and out quick, avoid any of that uh, whatever they do in a back room.
