Summary
As extensive as the Commission handbook is -- prepared for all manner of wild possibilities across the frontier of time and space -- there is one question that it does not answer, because the confluence of circumstances required for an agent to ever need that answer is astronomically unlikely.
What happens when one meets their own ghost?
As it turns out, the answer is, 'nothing good'.
This time, Klaus is the bomb.
(Previously titled "What's Good for the Goose.")

The Wedding Band and the Motel Man by Cryptix23

Summary
Shawn finds another perp from Lassie's murder wall, but things start to get weird when they try to bring in ex-cop Joe Miller. Weird in ways that make less sense than a dinosaur murder. Weird in ways that they've all brushed with before, even if they don't know it.
Weird in that Lassiter seems to know a little more about this whole thing than he's letting on.
Crossover with The Lost Room, not necessary to have seen that first.
