In the aftermath of the explosion, which leads to the death of Caitlyn's mother, Caitlyn and Vi settle into a mass depression, and the latter decides to stay in the former's house, much to the chagrin of Caitlyn's father Tobias. When it is announced that enforcers will invade the lanes in search of Jinx, Caitlyn attempts to convince Vi to join the enforcers and help her hunt down Jinx, which Vi refuses, not wanting to be part of the same group that killed her parents. Vi angrily leaves Caitlyn's house and comes across a man named Loris. The two spend the night drinking on the streets of Piltover, where Vi lets loose her frustrations on Caitlyn trying to convince her to join the "peanut patrol". The next morning, Maddie Nolan, a junior officer of the Enforcers, meets Vi, and compliments her by telling how far Caitlyn was willing to go for her, and how she complimented Vi. This encourages Vi to go to the memorial of all the dead council members with Loris. However, the memorial is attacked by the Chem-Baron Renni and her crew, though all are ultimately killed by Ambessa Medarda and Noxian forces. Caitlyn, infuriated with the event, convinces the council to lead a strike force into Zaun to hunt down Jinx and any other Silco-loyalists, consisting of her, Vi, Maddie, Loris, and Steb "I'm ready."
