Nathan pulled strings so his daughter could enter the same field as himself.

He was scared that she wasn't safe on her own, as the work was demanding; not just that; investigations to bring criminals in were sometimes dangerous.

People could get shot, or worse.

Aside from the dangers of the job, they didn't have a good father-daughter relationship due to the fact that he prioritised work over his family, which ultimately led to their divorce.

This shattered their relationship even further.
Working together wasn't just about work it was about rekindling their relationship.

She worked with her dad on many cases. He trained her across several fields, and investigations were solved together.
After he retired, she got involved in a case with barely any leads.

Feeling overwhelmed, she pulled out her phone and called her dad for help.

"That's not my jurisdiction anymore but we could go through it one more time."
