At the bar, she meets an informant, Daniel, who tells her about a man who might have something to do with Andrea's disappearance.

The Lieutenant follows the lead and discovers that the man, Javier, is a member of a human trafficking ring. She poses as a wealthy woman looking for a young girl to add to her collection of "exotic pets" and arranges a meeting with him. She manages to extract information about Andrea's whereabouts from him before handcuffing him and taking him into custody.
