=== Chasing Sandra ===
Stephen brought J.C., Ivy, and Tobias to what he assumed is the interview he promised Liza. The reporter, [[Jenny Zhang]], is very knowledgeable about Stephen and his aspects, and identified J.C. as "[[wikipedia:Id, ego and super-ego|Id]]", the part of one's personality that causes their needs and desires. Such talk makes J.C. uncomfortable and he left to buy things from the convenience store nearby.{{book ref|legion3|1}} At a text from [[Sandra]], Stephen and the other aspects left J.C. behind. J.C. was annoyed and texted Stephen an excessive amount while attempting to get back.{{book ref|legion3|2}} After J.C.
Stephen and the aspects went to [[Wode|Walters and Ostman Detention Enterprises]] to infiltrate it.{{book ref|legion3|8}} J.C. suggested putting together a team of experts, including [[Chin]], [[Lua]], and [[Marci]], but Stephen declined, preferring to act now. J.C. pointed out an open window that they then used to break in. J.C. directed Kalyani over phone to gather guns from his room so the aspects can protect themselves if any of them go nightmare.{{book ref|legion3|9}} J.C. continued to help Stephen infiltrate until everything flashed white and the aspects and Stephen appeared in a large warehouse. The infiltration exercise was revealed to be a simulation.{{book ref|legion3|11}} When [[Kyle]] put Stephen in the deserted island simulation, J.C. at first attempted to solve it the normal way along with [[Ngozi]] and Ivy until Lua showed up and broke them out of the simulation.{{book ref|legion3|12}}

When the subsequent mob fight simulation ensued, Ivy was the first to be hit by gunfire. She kissed J.C. as she died. J.C. then told Stephen that he can continue on his own, and stood up into the gunfire, dying instantly. Uniquely, Stephen was able to continue to use J.C.'s knowledge after he died. With other aspects, such as Armando, their death prevented him from understanding almost anything about their specialty. In this case, Stephen seemed to inherit J.C.'s proficiency instead of losing it to the void. Stephen took a mobster's gun and accurately shot mobsters and Kyle with it.{{book ref|legion3|13}}
