Summary
Jennlynn confirms there is a Learjet up for bid and takes a look at the outside. She makes a bid and gets it time-stamped by hand, but she's certain the fix won't let her win.
Flying back from Washington with Stan, they smell failure in Project Butterfly and debate how to get the clean start needed to make progress.
When Jennlynn learns she won the Learjet bid, she jumps into action, calling her stockbroker for the funds, and stealing Mike to fly with her to Houston.
Rexroth of the DEA tries to weasel, but Jennlynn is a scrapper and with Mike making a phone call, Rexroth conceeds to the deal. Jennlynn now owns the plane!
