VN Ren'Py Where It All Began [S1 Ch.4 Fix 1 Steam] [Oceanlab]

[Maviarab]

I'm agreeing. I was talking about any deal Leia tries to make, I didn't mention arms.



Meanwhile they mention Joe's multiple arms stashs many times. We have so little to go on, but there is definite animosity from Krayt to Leia.

l "These guns won't surface in this country. They will be prepared to make tracking them as hard as possible."

u "And the buyer?"
scene ab114d with dssr
l "On his way. And part of the rebellion in Iran, Estar Vach."

Anyone mentioned and or dicussed the bald dude stealing on the packages while Emilio was talking to the others? Don't recall seeing anything....

Theories?

Yeah. I misread and realized it immediately. I deleted my post. You're too fast on the trigger!

Well he was stabbed after 29 days....

It is mentioned...that's my issue. No stab marks are shown. No visible distress when he talks about it. He kinda just sorta brags and moves on. It just feels hollow. You could have taken that opportunity to show some vulnerability there. Instead he's always portrayed as either stoic or a childish clown.

@RNasc4444 & @BobTheDuck Well I guess I should finally get around to playing Ch5 (replaying from start) of SG now huh? Maybe...perhaps...ehh....

Yeah at this point you might as well wait for S2...

Probably just a random dude getting greedy that will later be caught and made an example of by Leia to show her ruthlessness.

Either an undercover cop/fed, or a greedy idiot that will be erased for stealing?

I do actually agree, my tongue was firmly in cheek when writing that back to you hehe.

Btw, what did you make of the mirror posing showing him not very buff at all? Seemed to strike me as having some self-confidence issues despite all his bravado?

Leia is dipping into their lines of business as an impetus to get them to join her enterprise. So Leia has Joe's stashes as a carrot and all-out war as a stick.

In the grand scheme of things, William's slap (which only one side knows about) isn't really that important.

He wasn't like that when he was shown after the arrest, he seemed a lot more insecure when he met Miru. Gotta say, he would have learned not to show weakness in prison, or he would have been a bitch. That kind of mask is really hard to drop once you wear it, especially when your life depended on it. The immature clown thing is totally him, though. Always was, right?

BTW, it was nice getting into Miru/MC's backstory, and how they met in jail his first night in. Unrealistic, because jail cells are NOT unisex (for obvious reasons).

That was honestly one of the better renders of the entire update! That's the sorta shit Ocean used to be great at. Show don't tell. That render speaks volumes and leaves you thinking if it self confidence, impostor syndrome maybe he's just seeing himself as he was years prior denoting he's somehow still stuck in that place and time.

Can be hand waived away. It wasn't jail...that was a local small police holding cell. We have no idea where it was, hoiw big the local station was after being caught at the train station. Of everything, that's one of the smallest details to nitpick at.

What does Rita hope to get from Monica in the meeting?

That's what jail is in many small towns. Jail is for arrestees and those awaiting trial. Only convicts go to Prison.

Presumably an agent in contact/within the circle of trust of some members of the Zane family

Also...how 'bout that new Mon haircut?

Glad I held onto my Mon stocks

My thoughts were the drugs, and a mole for Krayt. Or the fds have a mole at Leia's establishment, surely they'd try for one in Joe's/Leia's private army. I didn't watch it enough to really notice much, but there's a board like the police board, with photos and names and connections behing the thief. The video makes it pretty clear what kind of packages they are.

Monica has intel on the Zanes, she is Katie's friend at the end of the day.

Jail is an actual 'facility'. He was in a local station holding cell. Not somewhere to stay while awaiting a conviction. Please do use the Queen's English.

I like Mon...I'm with you all the way there dude.

The Krayt leader is why Joe is in prison, Joe laid him out cold. Joe is the leader of the bike club. Joe is the Arano. Krayts are a gang, just pure thuggery, no need for family names, just the law of the concrete and asphalt.



Katie is a fish from the single weird lake of Wollust. Salty? Sweet? She is never out of her element.

The whole Motorcycle Club (MC in this post) situation is very unclear. Are the Krayts affiliated with Joe's club, or rivals? Is Joe's club still around, or are they gone? We shall probably find out soon enough, in game time, seeing as how Joe's getting out of the joint soon.

Also, doesn't Scarlett seem too posh to be married to a motorcycle gang boss? WTF? Kata and Jacob don't seem to live in that world. Maybe Helen and Scarlett's family was filthy rich?

No, it's clear: Joe almost killed one of the Krayt. Krayt have expanded BECAUSE the MC's (and the families) are scattered.

kat "He had a falling out with one of the Krayt gang cunts."
kat "Dad almost killed him."
scene ad401 with dssa
kat "...Quite a lot changed when he went to prison."
kat "Krayt would've never expanded this far but... The families are scattered through the wind and so are the MCs."

Yeah, I just went back and rewatched the Agent Sexy and Agent Retard scene again. I'm as retarded as Agent Retard. I dunno why I thought that black dude was the Krayt leader when it literally says "Joey Arano" and the dialogue is that he is was the president of the Wollust Renegades.

I just hallucinated the whole thing, it seems. My brain continues to melt away.

The Feds mentioned having a mole in Leia's crew. I assume thats who baldy is. Stealing a package to take back to the cops.

Keeping up with Ocean will do that to you lol.

Possible for sure.
