2019[]
Germany[]
One year later, Sabina and Jane were reunited to assist Edgar Bosley's assignment in Hamburg. Their new client, lead programmer Elena Houghlin, is a corporate whistle-blower that plans to out Peter Fleming, Brok Industries for concealing the fatal flaws in the Castilo project. Sabina monitors the perimeter from the balcony in a nearby building while Jane poses as a waitress in the cafe Edgar and Elena are meeting in. They are ambushed by the assassin, Mr. Hodak, who is after Elena's flashdrive containing evidence against Fleming. Jane fights Hodak to give Edgar enough time to evacuate in a car with Elena. Hodak pursues them in an assault vehicle while Sabina tails them on a motorcycle. Jane and Hodak exchange fire until Hodak overturns their car into the river. While Jane rescues Elena from the sinking car, Sabina attempts to capture Hodak before he detonates his car and knocks her unconscious.
After the incident, they meet up with Bosley 342 who takes them to Safe House 6. They begin suspecting that the assassin's contractor may be someone with inside information on the Townsend Agency. Sabina, Jane, and Elena begin tracking down the Calisto merchants by retrieving the Calisto prototypes from Brock Industries disguised as Susan, Elena's co-worker. Sabina steals Pradeep Prasad's ID card from the gym and meets Jane and Elena in the bathroom to go over the plan - Sabina will take the six prototypes from the vault and Elena retrieves the prototype from her lab while Jane distracts security. Sabina reports that the prototypes were already taken by Fleming to Bosley 342, who informs them that Pradeep has unexpectedly returned to work. Sabina and Jane distract security while Elena retrieves the Calisto prototype. The security captain Ralph and his team begin locking down the building just as Sabina changes disguise and leaves. She rejoins Bosley 342 to pick up Jane and Elena, who unintentionally killed Ralph with an electromagnetic pulse while escaping. They fly to Berlin, where Bosley 342 reports that Fleming is planning to sell the prototypes in Istanbul, beyond the agency's bounds.
Istanbul[]
They meet with Jane's contact from the MI6, Fatima Ahmed, who reluctantly agrees to help them. The Angels trail Fleming and discover his plans to appear at a Turkish derby to meet with the buyer. Sabina disguises herself as a rider to grab Fleming's briefcase while Elena infiltrates the press box and hacks the security cameras to keep track of Fleming. Jane is positioned in a nearby tower providing tactical support, until she and Sabina see Hodak, the assassin, and realize there is no sale. Sabina chases Fleming on horseback while Bosley 342, Jane, and Elena pursue them.
After Sabina is knocked off her horse, they follow Fleming to a rock quarry north of the city. Sabina and Jane prepare to apprehend Fleming and the buyer while Elena takes control the computer room. They discover Jonny Smith is the proxy for the buyer, who demands Fleming to demonstrate Calisto's effectiveness. Fleming's conceals his cluelessness about Calisto by refusing to kill anyone and is shot by Hodak, who is actually working with Jonny. Sabina and Jane's positions are compromised and get into a shootout with Jonny's thugs while Elena struggles in the computer room. Sabina attempts to capture Jonny who is still infatuated with her and asks if she wants to run off with him just before he escapes. While Jane chases Hodak who has taken hold of the prototypes, Sabina is accidentally trapped in a rock grinder fighting one of the thugs and barely escapes.
Sabina is the first to suspect that Bosley 342 has been sabotaging their mission after her mysterious disappearance during the shootout. Elena picks up the ringing phone to be warned by John Bosley when an explosive in the building is detonated by Hodak. Unable to find Elena, Jane carries an injured and unconscious Sabina to seek help from Fatima. Sabina wakes up to comfort a distraught Jane, who also called the Saint for assistance. Sabina and Jane were initially infuriated to see Bosley 342 until she explains that it was actually John Bosley who betrayed them to acquire the Calisto prototypes and kidnapped Elena.
France[]
Sabina, Jane, and Bosley 342 stage a rescue mission for Elena. At Alexander Brok's party in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, Sabina steals the key from the room where Elena and Langston are held captive while Jane takes revenge by killing Hodak. Bosley 342 and the Angels successfully disarm John Bosley's agents and apprehend John. Right before Bosley 342 finishes her speech, Sabina knocks John unconscious with a punch. With the assignment complete, Sabina, Jane, and Bosley 342 invite Elena to undergo Angel training in California, which she gladly accepts. After becoming an official Angel, Sabina and Jane witnessed Elena getting the official Angel tattoo, suggesting that the three are now an official team of the Townsend Agency.

Sabina can be described as the "hard-partying, highly skilled wild card" Angel.
