Can't just find a decent dive to grab a tequila or ten? Smash the bottle over some corpocunt's face? You're getting soft, V.

*As of Patch 1.2 Joss will send a message thanking V and attaching a picture of the family in the hospital, with Randy recovering. If it was completed before 1.2, the picture will automatically be in the SMS instead. The image was changed in Patch 2.0.
*As of Patch 2.0 letting the kids win will not appear as an optional objective in the journal, despite still being optional and having the same outcomes.
==Bugs==
*V's outfit slot will be unequiped after completing the AR game. This means they may suddenly appear naked if all of their clothes prior to starting the game was in a Wardrobe outfit.
==Trivia==
*The name of this job comes from the Rolling Stones song "Following the River" first recorded in 1972 but not released until 2010.
*The names that the kids take in the AR Game, Joan McClane and Henry Callahan, are likely references to John McClane from Die Hard and Harry Callahan from Dirty Harry, respectively. The name of the game itself, Big Trouble in Heywood, is also likely a reference to the 1986 film Big Trouble in Little China.
