Roman had set the Cadillac's windshield on fire allowing for Reyna, Brian and Roman to jump ibto the Evo and check in with Bilkins. The three of them were laughing together, "That was amazing, Rome!" Reyna says as she and Rome fist-bump. "Should be prepared for a Markham assault honestly," Reyna said to Rome knowing he had fired shots at Markham which wouldn't go down well with the Agent. "He don't scare me," Rome says smirking at Reyna who shook her head while Brian laughed, "She ain't telling you to be scared, Rome. She just knows all about angry cops." Reyna rolled her eyes getting a quizzical look from Rome.

Brian smirked as they pulled up to the check in building, the three of them got out and started walking inside. "He's gonna blow our cover before we even get started," Rome says as they made their way inside. "Hey, Bilkins, can you tell me what went wrong?" Reyna asks as he walked towards them, "That's what I wanna know." Markham and Dunn entered the room with their guns raised. "Show me your hands!" Markhan yelled.

Brian pulled Reyna out of the way while Dunn patted down Rome, Reyna shook her head as she crossed her arms against her chest. "What's this about, man?" Rome asks as he kept his hands raised, Markham threw his gun to Bilkin before shoving Rome, "You think you can shoot at me? I'm a goddamn Federal Agent!" Brian raced over to shove Markham away from Rome as Reyna watched the whole arguement continue wishing she was back at Tej's garage.

Reyna stepped forward, "What? Monica didn't tell you that Verone was having me test them?" She asks Markham as he looked over at her before looking back at Brian and Rome, "No. I thought the punks were running." Reyna shook her head as Rome stepped forward, "Running!" Rome walked over to stand next to Reyna as Brian shook his head. "That's great. That's real great! Oh, and if Rome wanted to shoot you, you wouldn't be here right now," Brian says as he threw his own gun on the table.

Bilkins walked over and grabbed the gun placing it in his waistband, "All right. We gotta get this under control." Reyna watched as Rome walked over to a bag that Markham claimed as his own, not that it stopped Rome only making Reyna giggle as she stood with Brian. "So tell me what you know," Bilkins asks wanting to move past the previous situation and back into the case. "Well, Rome, Reyna and I will be making a run for Verone. I'm not sure when and where. But he did say he bought us a window. I'm assuming from the local cops," Brian explains.

Rome placed an arm around Reyna's shoulders as he stood next to her, she smiled up at him before looking at the officers. "I can talk to some of the guys at the local P.D," Dunn offers getting a shake of the head from Bilkins, "No. No good. If Verone's got some of them on the payroll, then we can't let then know about our operation." Reyna nodded in agreement before speaking, "Exactly. In addition, Verone told them that he himself would be waiting at the drop." But she had a feeling things wouldn't be running as smooth as they hope for.

"That's good news. If you're gonna be delivering drug money to him, then we can catch him for laundering," Bilkins said as he and Markham shared a glance before Reyna looked at Brian with a sigh. "No, there's only one problem," Rome said as he removed his arm from Reyna's shoulders catching everyone's attention. "What's that?" Bilkins asks as Reyna and Brian shared a look before focusing back on Rome. "Fuentes... Verone's tapping her," Rome says making the Agents look at everyone.

Bilkins looked from Brian to Rome, "Tappin' her? Tappin' her how?" Markham shook his head having full trust in his agent, "That is crap!" Rome scoffed at Markham, "What you talkin' about, homeboy? We know what we seen." Reyna took a deep breath as Markham looked at her and Brian with a snide smirk. "What do you think, O'Connor? You think she's compromised? You should know," Markham spoke tauntingly causing Reyna to try and lunge at him, Brian grabbing her instantly.

Rome looked at them confused as he pulled Reyna to stand by him, "What's that supposed to mean?" Markham laughed as he stared down Brian who narrowed his eyes. "What? You mean your old pal O'Connor didn't tell ya? He flipped on Bilkins in L.A. Gave his mark his car keys and let him disappear, Let Roshani here disappear too. That's why he's not a cop anymore." Reyna glared at Markham as Rome looked between them. "So what do you think, expert?" Markman continued with a taunting smirk, Reyna shoved past him to get outside needing some air.

"You let your man go, huh?" Rome said as they walked outside towards Reyna who turned to them at the sound of Rome's question. "Drop it. I don't wanna talk about it," Brian says as he glared at Rome before pulling Reyna into a hug straight away. "Drop it, hell! I wanna hear about this, homey," Rome pushed further causing Brian to roll his eyes as he pulled away from Reyna, focusing his attention to her instead of Rome's questions. "Are you alright?" Brian asks as Reyna wiped the stray tear from the memories, she nodded as Rome noticed her pained expression making him take a breath.

"We got Fuentes in with Verone, Markham tryin' to blow our cover and we got two wired cars that are no better than that damn ankle braclet of mine," Rome says making a valid point, things were getting deep and they needed to be prepared. "Imma tell you, brah. You let your man Markham do that shit again in front of Verone, that's gonna be our ass," Rome finishes making Brian and Reyna look at each other before looking back at Rome.

Reyna nodded in agreement as Brian thought for a moment before speaking up, "I know, man. I know. It's gettin' thick real quick, and we may need a way out." The three of them climbed into the Evo before looking at each other, a wide smirk resting on Reyna's face as she nodded. "We gotta come up with some exit strategy," Reyna tells them making Rome smile, "Exit strategy, huh?" She nodded before looking at Brian with a wide grin, "Yeah." Brian smiled as he caught on to what Reyna might be thinking.

Rome lifted the sandwich he stole from Markham before looking at Reyna, "I like the way that sounds. What you got in mind?" He took a bite of the sandwich as Reyna looked at both guys, "I don't know, man. But you two are gonna need two more cars." Rome smiled at her as Brian started up the car, "And I think we have a plan in set." Reyna laughed before leaning back making Brian look at her. "What?" Brian asks with a small smile as she smirked. "Just picturing you behind the wheel of American Muscle instead of an Import," She taunted making Rome chuckle as he finished the sandwich while Brian rolled her eyes before speeding off.

A smile appeared on Reyna's face at the sound of the engine approaching, her heart racing at the purring causing her hand to twitch in the need to work on the engine. "Here they come," Reyna says from where she was sitting beside Rome on the tailgate of Tej's truck. Reyna reached out to a couple of the thugs from Verone's test to race Brian and Rome for their cars. "Fonzie and Fabio. Glad you could join us," Rome taunts as he, Brian and Reyna walk over to them.

"We heard you boys wanted to get rid of those Crackerjack toys," Fabio says with a taunting smirk making Reyna laugh, "No. Actually we just figured those cars, the Camaro and the Challenger deserved better drivers, which is why they're gonna take them off your hands." She smirked at them as Fabio stepped forward, "You know, why don't we settle this now?" Tej quickly stepped between Fabio and Reyna, "Wait, wait. How about we settle this on the blacktop, huh?" Tej moved closer to Reyna.

Brian stepped forward, "Each car does it down and back, tag-team style for slips." Suki smirked at Fabio, "Loser walks home." She walked to stand with Reyna, wrapping an arm around her shoulders while Reyna wrapped hers around Suki's waist. The two of them had gotten pretty close in this short time, Reyna had even told her about Jesse to which Suki said she wished she could have met him. "We came to race," Fonzie says making everyone smile as Tej smirked, "Well, load 'em up then." Fonzie and Fabio walked over to their cars.

Brian turned to Reyna throwing her the keys for the Evo making her furrow her brows before looking at him, "Brian..." He smiled at her, "No one drives like Coyote but I wanna see what a Toretto can do." Reyna smirked and nodded as Tej and Suki shared a glance knowing Coyote was mostly anonymous, they were both shocked that it was her. Brian, Reyna and Rome walked over to the cars as Reyna studied them before turning to the guys, "All right. Check it out. There's no way we are gonna beat these guys straight up." Rome looked from the muscle cars to Reyna.

She looked at Rome directly, "The Hemi's puttin' out about 425 and that Yenko will snap a speed on about five seconds flat." Brian nodded in agreement as he looked between the two, "You're gonna have to pull somethin' out of your ass to win." Reyna thought for a moment as she leaned against the Evo, "The only thing I can think of is save the spray for the way back, the return trip." Brian nodded in agreement as Rome bro-hugged Brian, "Done deal." Reyna kissed Rome's cheek, "Good luck." He nodded before getting into his car claiming the orange one, the Challenger.

Reyna climbed into her car as Rome taunted Fabio, she gripped the steering wheel and shook her head as Brian leaned by the window, "Look at that, you behind the wheel of an Import." Reyna chuckled before looking at Brian with a slight worried expression making him lean down to her, "Hey. You'll do great Rey, just do what you always do. Focus on those ten seconds or less, remember." Reyna smiled as Suki signals for Rome and Fabio to go making nerves creep up on Reyna knowing what's at stake here and she didn't want to screw up.

Fabio easily took the lead and is the first to come back allowing Fonzie to take off first causing Reyna to tap on the wheel with her thumbs. Rome finally makes it back before Reyna takes off, her foot pushing pedal to metal as the car sped off while everyone cheered. Fonzie was on his way back and Reyna knew she had to do something to take the lead, so with a smirk she quickly gets into Fonzie's lane causing a game of chicken. Her heart was pumping with adrenaline remembering the days of chicken with Vince and Leon, she smiled and cheered as Fonzie moved out of the way last second causing him to almost crash the Camaro.

Reyna drifts her way perfectly around the barrel, she hit her NOS quickly catching up to Fonzie. The two were neck and neck until Reyna shifted one last time, at the perfect moment like Dominic had taught her, getting ahead of Fonzie and winning by a long shot. Everyone cheered and stared in awe at Reyna's driving, she pulled up next to the Eclipse and climbed out of the car having Rome pull her into a tight hug, lifting her off the ground. Reyna giggled as the others walked over having already collected the keys to the Challenger and Camaro.

After Rome placed her down Brian walked up and hugged her with a wide grin on his face, "Now that was Toretto/Roshani driving." Reyna smiled as Suki and Jimmy praised her driving, Tej stood there almost speechless as he found himself admiring and respecting almost everything he'd seen from Reyna Roshani. "I am so getting a look under those hoods," Reyna says as they all climbed into the cars, Reyna getting into the Camaro smiling as Tej walked over to her. "You've impressed me, Reyna. You and I will check under the hoods and make some adjustments," Tej spoke making Reyna smile.

She leaned out the window and kissed his cheek, "Sounds like a plan, Parker." She started up the car, revving the engine while closing her eyes making Tej smile. Reyna knew to always appreciate a car, that they aren't just machines that get you places, they are home. Tej walked over to his truck as Suki climbed in with Reyna, the two girls smiling at each other as Rome pulled up next to them with a happy smile before speeding off cheering out the window.

Reyna looked over at Fabio and Fonzie, "Hey guys!" The two looked at Reyna with annoyed expressions from Rome's taunting. "I promise to look after these cars, I know ya'll put a lot of work into them," Reyna spoke politely getting small smiles in response. "You're a good driver, kid. Don't give that up," Fonzie spoke before they walked away. Reyna smiled at Suki, "Let's beat those boys back to the garage, I got a party to get too." Suki laughed as Reyna sped off getting ahead of all of them, pulling into the garage ten minutes before Tej and the others arrived.
