It's a hot day in Neo-Tokyo, and the Burst Angels are in for one wild ride in the fifteenth episode of season one of Burst Angel, entitled "Slingin' Oil." The girls are tasked with protecting an oil tanker for a group of oil tycoons who are concerned about the tankers being hijacked by the rival corporation, Dominion. Of course, it's not long before the Dominion make their move, and the Burst Angels find themselves in a high-speed chase across the city.
Jo and Meg are in charge of keeping the tanker safe, while Sei and Amy are on standby in a nearby helicopter. As expected, the Dominion's attack is well-organized and relentless, with heavily-armed and armored vehicles closing in on the tanker from all sides. Jo and Meg are forced to use their wits and their weapons to fend off the attackers, with Jo taking the wheel of the tanker and using it as a battering ram to slam into the enemy vehicles.
Meanwhile, Sei and Amy are doing their best to provide backup support, but their helicopter is soon shot down by enemy fire. Sei manages to activate the helicopter's self-destruct sequence before it crashes, and the resulting explosion takes out several of the Dominion's vehicles. But with the helicopter destroyed, the girls are left with no communication and no way to call for backup.
As the chase continues, Jo realizes that their best chance is to lead the Dominion into a trap. She tells Meg to activate the tanker's automated defense system, which sprays an oil slick across the road behind them. The Dominion's vehicles quickly lose traction and begin to skid and slide, allowing Jo to ram their vehicles without them being able to dodge out of the way.
Despite the success of their plan, the Burst Angels are still outnumbered and outgunned. Jo and Meg take heavy fire, and it looks as though they might not make it out alive. But just when all seems lost, Sei and Amy arrive on the scene, having commandeered a police car and used it to plow through the Dominion's ranks. With the help of the police and their own advanced weaponry, the girls are able to defeat the Dominion's forces and complete their mission.
In the aftermath of the battle, the girls reflect on their experiences and the sacrifices they had to make to accomplish their objective. They realize that, no matter how tough the job, they can always count on each other to have their backs. With renewed determination and camaraderie, the Burst Angels set off to face their next challenge, whatever it may be.
