To gain visitation rights, Michael offers his services to the CIA Agent who trained him personally: Tom Card (John C. McGinley). Michael and Jesse initially intend to team up, selling a cover as corrupt DEA Agents wanting a piece of the action of a cartel with the ultimate goal of moving the drug shipment. But Michael notices that Montero (Anthony Ruivivar), the second-in-command of the cartel, is represented by a lawyer that would recognize Michael from a previous encounter, forcing Jesse to do the job alone with only outside help from Michael, Sam and Card. In the end, Jesse gets the second-in-command to become a cooperating witness and ring in a major bust. This huge a victory allows Michael to see Fiona. While the others take down the cartel, a fellow incarceree gang leader goes after Fiona because she disrespected her. Fiona fights and overpowers the cellblock queen known as "D.B." during a fire in a cell, earning respect in prison. Afterwards, Fiona is washing dishes with a new friend. This friendship is shortlived as she tries to drown Fiona, but fails. Fiona learns that the girl was ordered to kill Fiona, or the girl's sister would die. Meanwhile, Michael's brother Nate (Seth Peterson) returns to Miami, stating that his marriage has fallen apart.
