    After speaking with Aria and asking about Archangel, find the Merc Recruiter in the west part of Afterlife.

    Apply for a freelance spot to attack Archangel.
  4. 4
    As you exit, you will see a young man entering to apply for a spot.

    If you have some Paragon points, you can use a Paragon Interrupt to stop him by jamming his pistol.
  6. 6
    If you save him, he sends a thank you message to the Normandy.
  7. 7
    If you do not save him, he is the first to die during the freelance attack.

    If you bring Zaeed Massani for this mission, the Blue Suns will react to his presence.
