Jax was walking down a dark alleyway. From the shadows, a dark figure raises a pistol at him. Jax takes a step back in fear.
"Wh-what are you doing?" The figure takes the safety off the pistol. "No. No no, please! No!"
The figure shoots Jax and he falls to the ground.
"Rosebud..." He mutters.

Later on Dylan is being interrogated by Lieutenants John Smith and Antione Bitters with Palomo and Jensen looking over Jax.
"Just a few more inquiries, ma'am, uh, did you attempt to witness any other particular individuals in the general vicinity of the area in which the crime scene was alleged?" Smith asked like a professional detective.
Bitters palms his visor and sighs. "Uh, what he means is did ya see anybody?"
"No, I just found him lying there and called the police!" Dylan replies in distress. "Is-is he okay? Did they take him to General?"
"We're asking the questions if you so please!" Smith snaps. "Does the alleged victim have any enemies, arch-enemies, nemesises, or particular people of an interesting nature to which the crime may be motivated by whom?"
"Uh, no. I-I don't know...who's the attending Doctor?"
"Uh, j-just a few more inquiries, if you so please, to be of grateful assistance to law enforcement investigators!"
"Dude, just stop. You don't even sound like a cop!" Bitters states.
"Just doing my job, Bitters! It's called going by the book!" Smith shoots back.
"What book?!"
"Law & Order. Dun dun!"
"Ugh, gross! CSI: Miami for life!" Bitters replies.
Dylan looks at Jax on the ground. "He's gonna be okay, right? Can you please tell me where they took him?"
"Ahem! Do you profess to have any knowledge of the alleged victim's next of kin?" Smith asks.
""Next of kin?" Is he dead?!" Dylan says shocked.
"No, no no, he's not dead." Bitters reassures her.
"The alleged victim was booked with a bullet lodged in his alleged posterior." Smith explains.
"He means his butt! Dude got shot in the butt!" Palomo says walking up.
"Charlie, we're supposed to be establishing a perimeter!" Jensen exclaims.
"I just wanna be included!"
"So...he's fine?" Dylan ascertains.
"Should be." Bitters nods. "But if you ask me, something about this case doesn't sit quite right. It all feels rather...cheeky."
Suddenly the CSI: Miami theme starts playing.

At the General Doyle Hospital, Dylan looks into a hospital room, where Jax is laid out on the table. Opera music can be heard over the hospital speakers.
"I can see the headlines already!" Dylan turns to see Dr. Greyis standing right next to her. ""Journalists Assaulted On Chorus! Peace Talks: Abandoned!""
"Dr. Grey, I was hoping to speak with you!"
"Off the record. I'm not an official representative of Chorus, Ms. Andrews." Grey cuts her off.
