Graves has the flu and Picquery has forced him to take paid time off. Not trusting him to not sneak in some paperwork when he should be resting, Picquery and the Goldstein's have been enlisted Newt to watch after Graves until he gets better. Because Newt's specialty is caring for beasts, and a sick and bored Graves is definitely a bit of a beast.

Can be friendship or slash between Newt and Graves.
