Bug-Eyed
The runners are enjoying a somewhat-decent meal outside in Utrecht, with a sun that shines lovely for once, when a Roto-drone suddenly flies towards them, waving a white flag while also having an alarm light on. When it lands on their table, someone's voice suddenly comes out.
The person on the other side introduces herself as Bubbles. She is a Rigger and was on a heist, when exterminators came in to deal with a bug infestation. Rather than properly tracking down the nests, the lazy buggers chose to simply block all possible wall entrances and starve the cockroaches to death. As a result, Bubbles her spydrone was trapped inside the walls.

Bubbles
Bubbles is a rigger originally from Seattle, who has made a decent living with her clever use of spydrones. She made a good living thanks to always seeing her enemies coming, which repeatedly let her team escape before trouble arrived. After Bubbles made a big score, she promptly retired to the United Netherlands, now only doing the occasional job for some extra pocket money.
Recently she was hired to steal some data off an offline terminal. She had drones sneak in and steal the data, but then the data carrier got caught in the exterminator's bug sweep. Or at least that's what she says. In reality, she already extracted the data. However, the drone was her very first spydrone and she just doesn't want to lose it.
The Run
The corporate office has been locked down due to fumigation chemicals. Little does the company know, the hired exterminators are using cheap chemicals and don't have enough with them. So instead, they're filling many walls with foam. Now the runners need to break in and find the drone to break it out. Fortunately for them, the drone will respond to a specific signal, so if they get close enough they can find it. However, the chemicals are still around so they should bring some protective gear. Otherwise, they will be facing a lot of lung damage and chemical-burnt skin. And of course, security is keeping an eye on the exterminators, to make sure nobody steals anything.7 Karma
Word on the street
"Mayday. Mayday. Your assistance is needed. Mayday. Mayday. Your assistance is needed."
"Look, chummers, I really need that drone back. Please find it and bring it to me intact, so I can get the data off."
"My poor lil' Gnat Leader... I hope none of the bugs damaged it. Please be alright!"
"Pfff, who cares about a little fraud. By the time they discover we just filled up the walls, we'll be three shell companies ahead already."
