The following morning at work, Rosalind confronts Liza about the attacks on Dao Feng and herself. Liza denies that the Communists are behind it, but Rosalind wants her to find out for sure. Liza refuses to cooperate. At that moment, the local police arrive to question employees about the death of Tong Zilin, whose body was found near the Peach Lily Palace. This is the man whom Rosalind poisoned at the dance club. Before the interrogation begins, Rosalind claims that she saw Liza talking to Zilin outside the club a few days earlier. This is enough cause for the police to arrest Liza and cart her off to jail. Rosalind later confides to Orion that this was simply a ploy to get Liza to cooperate with their investigation. Since Orion and Rosalind must attend a social function that evening, Orion calls Phoebe and asks her to break Liza out of jail.
That night, the two spies attend a fundraiser to collect information for a Seagreen article. The plan is for Rosalind to take notes while Orion chats up the other Seagreen employees attending the event. Shortly after they arrive, they bump into General Hong. He meets Rosalind for the first time in her guise as Orion’s wife.
