Connor quickly makes his way down the street searching for a black Ferrari.
He finally finds it stopped at a red light.
Looking over, Connor puts his window down and revs his engine.

Sitting at the red light, Shaylynn can feel someone staring at her.
Then she hears it, an engine revving.
She looks to her left to see Connor smiling at her. Smiling back she puts down her window.
"Wanna race?" he asks her.
Shaylynn starts to laugh, "Do you think you can beat me?" she asks him.
"Probably not," he says, "How about going back to my place?"
"I've been called into, uh, work. Can I get a rain check for another night?" Shaylynn asks.
"Sure," Connor says disappointedly.
"I'll see you later!" she says as the light turns green.
Connor watches as Shaylynn pulls away.

Behind a warehouse, Shaylynn quickly changes out of the clothes she wore to the Fundraiser.
She changes into a black sweater, black jeans, black boots, and a black leather coat.

Throwing the other clothes into the passenger seat, she pulls a long case out from the behind the seats

Throwing the other clothes into the passenger seat, she pulls a long case out from the behind the seats.

Up on top of the warehouse, Shaylynn waits.
Within five minutes a black SUV and a box truck pull up from opposite directions across the street. Four men get out of the SUV as two men get out of the box truck.
Shaylynn looks through her scope, after dialing it in she takes aim then pulls the trigger. She repeats this five more times until all the men are on the ground.
Putting her rifle in its case, she closes the lid and locks it.
Walking over to the stairs, she pulls out her phone, "It's done!" she says hanging up.
Three minutes later, a van pulls up.
Six guys get out, one holding a duffle bag, "Where is she?" one guy asks.
Shaylynn walks out of the shadows toward the guys.
When she reaches them the guy with the duffle bag walks up to her, "It's all there," he tells her.
She smiles at him taking the bag, "It was a pleasure doing business with you gentlemen!"
Walking away, she walks back into the shadows, over to her car.
As some of the guys get into the van the others get into the box truck when the Intelligence Unit pulls up.
Shaylynn gets a shitty grin on her face as she watches the Intelligence Unit take the men into custody.

The next day, Connor is back at work.
Sitting at a table in the cafeteria, Connor drinks his coffee as Will walks over to him.
He sits down across from Connor, "Well?" Will asks him.
"Well, what?" Connor asks.
"Shaylynn. Did you take her home last night?" Will asks.
"No," Connor tells him, "She said she was called into work."
Will looks at him confused, "What time was this?"
"It was around one in the morning," Connor tells him.
"What does she do that she was called to work at one in the morning?" Will asks.
Connor shrugs his shoulders as he looks at his watch.
He takes one more drink of his coffee then stands up, "I have to be getting to a surgery," he tells Will.
"Alright. See you later," Will says.

Across town, Hank Voight walks into a diner.
He sits down in a booth, "You better get your timing down better," he says.
"I had plenty of time before you showed up with the others," Shaylynn tells him.
"You're positive those bullets won't be traced back to you?" Hank asks.
"There's no way!" Shaylynn says, "That type of rifle isn't in the system. So they'll have no idea what type of gun they came from."
"Do you have any "jobs" lined up for tonight?" he asks.
"Nope," Shaylynn says, "I'm going to go. I have some errands to run."
She stands up and walks over to Hank, "Bye, Dad" she says kissing him on top of the head.
Turning, Shaylynn walks over to the door and walks out.
