The year was 1936 - it was the height of the great depression. The
Bearded Man was a plucky young buck, with plenty of grit and more than
his fair share of gumption. Sure, times were tough, but none of that
mattered when you were the finest grifter on the east side. In a play
that would be talked about for generations, our hero prepared himself
for the con of the century. A makeshift catamaran casino was set to
leave the port at 8:30 P.M. sharp, and all the high rollers would be
there. He'd scored himself a pretty decent suit after a small
pickpocketing job the week before, and he was told from the barber that
despite his upbringing, he cleaned up real good. Together with Bit Pythagoras,
the team plotted to overtake Boss Hendricks, one of the meanest mugs in
all of organized crime. All the biggest pimps were there, from two-gun
Tommy Johnson to Fatass McGee. The Bearded Man sat down at the cards
table, with a $100,000 minimum buy-in. The dealer dealt the first
hand... The tension was palpable. At that moment, The Bearded Man yelled
"FIRE!", and when everyone got up to the deck, our crew simply pushed
all the bad guys overboard, took the money, and sailed away in the
catamaran. It was surprisingly easy and not dramatic at all. Hey! No one
said it was a smart plan, or even a clever one, but damnit, it worked!
