Mirana sits in the briefing room as Nyla addresses the room. The woman twirls her engagement ring around her finger as she listens to the brief.

"This is Sergeant June Zhang of Fresno PD. We are gonna help out on her op today," Nyla introduces June who takes over.

"Appreciate the assistance, guys. I'm June, the UC. My case officer, Lieutenant Balasco, who is not nearly as mean and awful as he looks. For the last eight months, I have been up on a crew out of San Jose who made bank selling precursors of liquid Fentanyl. But they got greedy, tried to go from selling the parts to making and selling the finished product. But their lab blew up, killing their chemist and destroying their entire supply, leaving them with no product and a lot of pissed-off buyers," June explains the op to the room. "Which is when I swooped in, promising enough product to satisfy all their customers and then some. But last night, all our hard work almost fell apart, until the quick thinking of Officer Cabrera saved my ass"

"Cabrera, stand up so they can see what you're wearing," Nyla says and Mirana nods.

Mirana stands up, showing the outfit she is wearing. Nyla had helped her pick out what to wear in the morning that would fit with what she had told Sato about enjoying nice clothes. A pair of stilettos are on her feet paired with a long black dress which had thin spaghetti straps. Her hair is in a messy bun and her make-up is subtle except for the dark eye make-up. Large hoop earrings hung in her ears and they had adorned her arms with fake tattoos.

"The op today is simple," June says. "Trade drugs for cash, then arrest everybody and try to get them to flip on Aldo Salonga, their boss"

"All right. You have your assignment," Nyla says to the room. "Everyone in position by 10:00 a.m"

"You can't pit an untrained probationary officer against one of the most dangerous crime syndicates in California," Tim says and Mirana shoots him a look which he ignores.

"I don't want to hear it, Tim," Nyla shakes her head. "She volunteered. Plus, Grey authorized it, and we have some of the best operational expertise she could ask for"

"They know the gladiator cage you're walking into with the Salonga family," Tim says to Mirana. "You don't. That's not volunteering. That's being used"

Mirana rolls her eyes as Tim walks away, turning to face Nyla who is watching Mirana carefully.

"Don't let him kill your confidence," Nyla says.

"I won't," Mirana shakes his head. "His issues with UC are for him to deal with"

"I'm glad you know," Nyla nods. "But no one would fault you if you wanted his approval"

"For what it's worth, you've got mine," June chimes in and Mirana smiles. "You handled yourself like a pro last night. Those instincts can't be taught"

"Gracias," Mirana looks at the ring on her finger. "I'll be back"

Mirana hurries after Tim, grabbing his arm so she can stop him from storming off. He looks down at her with a raised eyebrow.
