Professor Layton and the Last SpecterEdit
Episode: I of the YardEdit
Gilbert found Chelmey reading records in the Yard's archive. They conversed as they went back upstairs, with Gilbert telling Chelmey that he shouldn't let his work interfere with his life. He also mentioned that Barton was learning to be a police officer at an academy.
After working together for a while, he and Chelmey finally managed to find the criminal they had been tracking. The man escaped by car, and Chelmey, going against his superior's choice, decided to chase on foot instead. Gilbert was shot because of this.
Before dying of his injuries, Gilbert told Chelmey that, one day, he would be a fine detective.
