## Plot

In the city of Guadalajara, there was a festival going on, and everyone was enjoying tacos and burritos. Manuel and Amaya were both eating chilli tacos, and Manuel dared Amaya to eat it all, Amaya says only noobs feel the spice, and when she eats it, her mouth goes on fire, and Manuel laughs and gives her chocolate. After that, Felix calls us, he says that he has found a body besides his car, and we should come here. Amaya then sets her hair, and we arrive at the crime scene, Felix tells us that someone left a body beside his car, and it was of a woman. After collecting the body, we send it to autopsy, and interrogate Felix as this made him a prime suspect. Felix tells he doesn't know who was the victim, but she was known as Isabella Marquez, as the posters said. He says that he found that even in Mexico, the higher legion has made up teenagers to act as drug dealers to earn them profit, but there is no evidence, and he hasn't found them yet, he says that teenagers back in Canada and United States, probably were used as pawns. At the station, we see Froylan having some beer, and Amaya unamused says "Ugh why are you drinking on job" and Froylan replies that he and Elaine are going somewhere today, so he is just drinking some. After that we find some clues, and find out a business card that belonged to none other than Pavati Amozoc, surprised we see her in the city, so decide to interrogate her. Pavati tells us that she had some business trip here, and she said that she was being followed by some slender woman with brown hair, and we figure out it was Isabella, we ask her more but she tells us she doesn’t know any further.

Back at the station, Amaya says that taco is really playing with her, and she Manuel who was just chilling, She rolls her eyes at him, then Lovisa comes and says that Elaine is probably a suspect, Amaya rolls her eyes and says "What she did now, can’t take a break". Lovisa tells us that she found Elaine talking to someone about Isabella's murder. Suspicious we ask her what really her intentions were. Elaine starts to sweat and says that someone was threatening her to tell about the murder, or else they will strike her and the department, and saying that they will say the teenagers to kill them, though we don’t believe her, but we had to go. At the precinct, we were discussing details, Braxton approaches us saying that someone set him clues.

Mid-investigation, Braxton tells us that someone send him clues and he says that someone anonymous told him about that some gang member Castillo Flores, is seem to be part of the drug dealing business in Mexico, and also member of a cartel. Though he is unaware that if this might be true, Braxton says that Manuel was talking to someone about impressing someone, but Braxton says that if Manuel had a crush on  Froylan, why doesn't he tell us. We interrogate Castillo about it, Castillo tells us that he isn't that much into the drug business saying that he was hired just for cover up, but he too was forced to get teenagers drugged, and said this work happened underground, he also breaks us the news that Isabella was actually part of this clique and she probably the leader who was under the real leader of it. After talking to Castillo, we were shocked to find that Isabella was part of these shenanigans, and now we were doubting Elaine, that what really were her real intentions. Braxton and Froylan were arguing and Braxton said that he should not try to get Elaine off from the suspect list, Amaya breaks the news that Isabella was member of the drug dealing business and now she is more of a vital suspect. We later find out that some harlot named Alejandra del Toro had connections with Isabella. Amaya was weirded out what exactly a harlot would have to do with a drug dealer, we interrogate Alejandra about that, Alejandra says that Isabella needed her for some "spicy" stuff together, Amaya weirded out and says she didn’t have to mention that, and Alejandra replies "Oh no I don’t bite sweetheart, I can also make you go crazy", she winks and then goes off. Amaya cringes out what just happened.

Back at the station, we figure out that Felix actually knew about Isabella, and now suspicious, we interrogate him, he tells us that Isabella found out that he and Amalia were spying on them, and knowing about the teenagers, Felix says that she threatened them with killing, but they ignored her anyways, Felix tells us that Amalia is figuring out other clues, so we shall we what happens, he later tells Amaya that he finds her cute, and Amaya says why everyone is just finding her cute. At the precinct, we were discussing details, Lovisa says Elaine and Froylan are fighting

Mid-investigation, Lovisa tells us that Froylan and Elaine were fighting, Froylan tells us Elaine is acting all weird, and we interrogate her, Elaine tells us that people are accusing her for something she had not done, telling us that Isabella was actually her friend, but when she started to show greed for power and wealth, so she broke friendship with her. Amaya was suspicious, but she notices that Manuel isn't around for a lot of time, and Braxton tells us that he went somewhere for a walk, but he says he was talking to someone so loud that he could hear, saying that he was to meet someone. Amaya is puzzled that what girl he is following now. Mary Ann approaches us, she tells us that Manuel came to her and said he needed some techniques to impress someone, now we were more suspicious than who he really was gonna impress. We later find out that Alejandra seem to have beef with Isabella, Amaya feeling weird interrogates Alejandra, she tells us that Isabella forced her to work with them, and become the mistress of the leader, Alejandra says she was already disgusted of what Isabella did, at least she has morals unlike Isabella, who just wanted wealth and fame, and ruined people's lives. After some time, Amaya still feels reaction of that taco but now at least she could concentrate, saying that where did even Manuel go, we proceed to find clues.

In the end, we had enough evidence to arrest Castillo Flores for the murder. Upon admitting, Castillo tells us both him and Isabella were part of the cartel and joined this drug dealing trade to earn more money, he says that both of them had set up the criteria for making money through teenagers, saying that they drugged and brainwashed them, and forced them to work for them, and possibly murder them, by doing this they made a lot or money, but when the higher legion promised to promote Isabella to higher position he got jealous, saying that he always worked alongside her, and both of them would leave the drug dealing business and settle somewhere else, but Isabella became greedy and wanted all the money for herself, saying that she never considered him as her partner, just used him as a pawn, Castillo said no one refuses him and he wanted to kill her to exert all the wealth for himself, he decided to let go the teenagers, and blame it on her so that the promotion would be cancelled, but the teenagers were too into their control and that he ordered them to attack her, and later he himself decided to finish her off for good saying that she already ruined enough lives and he stabbed her with chisel in the heart for many times, and then left her body besides Felix's car so we could suspect him, but we didn't and found that he was the one behind this heinous crime, Castillo still smirks saying that even if he goes to jail, the higher legion will bomb entire country to get him out.

Judge Kingston sentenced him to life imprisonment. After the trial, Amalia comes to us, she tells us that she has found out thus higher legion is headquartered in Brazil, and the name of the organisation is in Portuguese for that very reason, but there is no information what it's name is, but she says that only knows this. After that Amaya goes to Elaine, and asks her what is her problem, Elaine says that everyone is accusing for the crime she hasn't committed and she isn't feeling right with that. After some time Manuel arrives, Amaya asks where he has been, Manuel says he needed some time for himself, and Amaya says who was to he impress, he blushes and replies that he just met with a girl, whom he found really cute, he tried to impress her, not because he wanted to date, just talk. Amaya replies "Sure you do". Alejandra comes to us and sees Manuel and says "Hey sexy, wanna have some fun". Manuel blushes and then goes off. Amaya looks at her and says "Whom are you seducing now". Alejandra tells us that some Felix guy is asking her to give more information on Isabella, we later ask Felix what exactly information he needs, he tells us that according to him, Isabella had some another connection with someone else other than the higher legion, and decided to ask Alejandra, but she only agreed to talk if he satisfied her. Felix says that he obviously wouldn’t do that, Amaya says that Alejandra is just looking for someone to satisfy her.

At Braxton's lab, he and Manuel were talking about the higher legion and while watching some comedy show and laughing like maniacs, Amaya also joins in and all of them start laughing and the same time they hear something moving, we all decide to see, and when we open the door, we see Froylan and Elaine in "no clothes", Braxton closes his eyes and Amaya says to Elaine "Girl what's your problem, didn't I tell you to stop being a problem". Manuel says "If you wanted to have hot time with her, should have done when you were alone", the three go off and from their and Lovisa sees Braxton and says "What happened Brax, you seemed shocked" Amaya says "Yeah nothing", when they both go Manuel and Amaya talk to each other "Ugh Froy literally can’t take a break, not let chief know". After that Felix comes again to us, telling us that Isabella had left something in Belize City, and that possibly could lead us to the legion's name and much more, Amalia also comes there seeing that something is bound to happen tomorrow in Belize City.
