"Here is your target Deeks" Lt. Bates informs Detective Marty Deeks while showing him a photo of a woman. "This was delivered sometime last night." As he says this Bates gestures at a mysterious package on his desk.

Throwing a curious/confused look at Bates Deeks asks "What is this? Who delivered it?"

"It was waiting on my desk for me this morning, listen" Bates pulls out a voice recording and presses play.

"Listen very carefully. What I am about to say has great importance. The woman in the photograph is very dangerous."

As the recording plays Deeks looks down at the photograph and wonders how can someone that hot be so dangerous.

"She killed a man that goes by the name Kevin Smith. You won't be able to find his body though. This isn't the first time and it won't be the last unless she's stopped. More clues will be sent…"

"How do we know that it's a legitimate tip?" Deeks asks as Bates reaches to turn off the recording.

"We don't, that's why you are going to go in and get close to her. See if you can find any evidence of a crime."

"How would you suggest I do that?" Deeks replies

"The apartment next door to hers has become available. You are going to become a new tenant in that apartment. Then the rest is up to you. Here are the keys and your new identification."

"Does this place allow pets?" Deeks asks, thinking of Monty.

"Yes, that mutt can go with you. You can even use him to your advantage. Get to work Detective, this should be a simple open and shut case. I expect results within the next 2 weeks."

"Yes sir" with that Deeks walks out if the office and straight into his new life.
