Summary
Merlin is sick. It's painfully obvious, too, but he's being stubborn about it, so Arthur keeps close, tries to be ready to catch him when he falls, metaphorically. Until he falls, quite literally, and in picking him back up, revelations are had and long-held secrets are revealed.

Summary
Someone in the Camelot (Merlin) has rooted out a spy on the council. This anonymous person (who is obviously Merlin) put this accusation into a long letter, full of evidence from a thorough investigation and infiltration of the spy's circle within the staff. Arthur is remarkably impressed with this mystery detective (again, Merlin) and becomes set on uncovering their identity.
Merlin didn't think things would get out of hand. He only wanted to get rid of the spy publicly and legally, so he forewent the magic and decided to conduct a counterintelligence mission for months to gather evidence the old-fashioned way—like anyone would! But suddenly Arthur is searching for him, and magic or not, he learned a long time ago to stay in the shadows.
George is so tired. It is so obvious. King Arthur is disappointingly unobservant, and George cannot take this much longer.

Summary
He cursed viciously; not because he had to put on a cold, wet, dirty shirt, but because, given the state of him, there was absolutely no way Arthur would believe any of his favored excuses, which meant he’d have to go with Gaius’s standard answer of The Tavern.
