I never intended to boss any of your officers around, if that's the image you were getting. To clarify, I meant that Edwin is really there due to the fact that he believes taking down the Jagielski family will ultimately result in the advancement of his career within the ATF Agency. Edwin is thus determined to ensure he's the one to bring the gang down, or his time there is a waste, in his eyes anyway. When I said working independently, I meant simply that the ATF are likely to be performing different work than perhaps that compared to those specifically in the Major Crimes Unit. The two will still be co-operating and working together since they ultimately want to achieve the same thing, and Edwin isn't going to be bossing anybody in the MCU around.Hell, I'm confusing myself just writing this! To save my waffling, yes, I understand what you mean. Again to save my waffling, when I say Edwin may be performing different work at points, he's going to be making deals that he may not initially tell the local authorities of, if he believes it will ensure he gets the credit for taking the gang down. That sorta' thing.

I love that IC we're going to have Lauren and Edwin literally standing toe to toe growling at each other, I just want to make sure that from an outside (planning) perspective you understand that the cops involved are going to do their job as if you're not there, assuming that you can assist or become part of what is cleaned up. I think we're on the same page. It was your "if we need backup" that caused my temperature to rise. 

Welcome to Justice, baby.
