__NOTOC__
==Synopsis==
Luther and Pigeon, after scouting Steal Team Six's residence, strategize at The Old Monkey pub about selling their jewelry and gems to Hudson and befriending Steal Team Six. They decide to trust Hudson with the majority of their wealth and visit Rusty's Hook the next day to hand over various valuables for fencing. They then wait at Rusty's Hook until Steal Team Six arrives, eventually socializing with them and attempting to build rapport. To help Pigeon escape the friend zone with Patricia, Luther takes him to a brothel, but their plan to make Patricia jealous with the prostitute Crystal appears to fail. Secretly following Steal Team Six, Pigeon witnesses a confrontation with a rival gang, leading to Pigeon stepping in and helping Steal Team Six to escape. Later, Eraser confronts Pigeon about following them, who feigns coincidence, and Luther seizes the opportunity to propose joining Steal Team Six. Eraser agrees, provided they kill Pointer, which they swiftly accomplish.
==Recap==
===Fencing Contraband and Befriending Steal Team Six ===
July 11, 1519. Luther and Pigeon scout the residence of Steal Team Six before heading to The Old Monkey pub to discuss their future plans. They consider various topics, including selling their jewelry and gems to Hudson, finding an appraiser to avoid being ripped off, befriending Steal Team Six, and learning appraisal and jewel-making skills. After extensive discussion, they decide to trust Hudson and sell the majority of their wealth to her.
The following day, the group visits Rusty's Hook, where Luther hands over the following items to Hudson for fencing:
*25 pieces of miscellaneous jewelry
*19 gems
*2 fancy necklaces
*4 fancy rings
Pigeon attempts to sell his curved dagger, but Hudson rejects it. The party then decides to stay at Rusty's Hook until Steal Team Six arrives.
July 23, 1519. Eleven days later, while drinking at Rusty's Hook, Pigeon and Luther notice Steal Team Six entering the establishment. Luther arranges for Patricia to bring drinks to the group on his tab, which is positively received.
The next day, the party observes Eraser delivering goods to Hudson. Luther congratulates him on his recent success and asks to join his table. Eraser agrees, and the group spends the night drinking with Steal Team Six. Over the following weeks, Luther and Pigeon continue to socialize with Steal Team Six, attempting to build a rapport with the group.
===Pigeon Goes to a Brothel===
On days when the party is not engaging with Steal Team Six, Luther notices that Pigeon has been placed in the friend zone by Patricia. To remedy this situation, Luther takes Pigeon to a brothel, explaining that gaining experience will make him more attractive to Patricia. After spending the night with a prostitute named Crystal, Pigeon asks her to accompany him to Rusty's Hook to incite jealousy in Patricia. Crystal agrees, at the expense of Luther's wallet. 
The next day, Pigeon arrives at Rusty's Hook with Crystal, but Patricia remains unfazed. Luther then begins to ponder Patricia's level of involvement with the Pittmen.
===Pigeon Saves Steal Team Six ===
In the evening, Luther and Pigeon continue to drink with Steal Team Six at the tavern. While Luther makes a positive impression, Pigeon often pushes jokes too far, particularly with a new member named Pointer.
August 21, 1519. During the day, Pigeon secretly follows Steal Team Six around town, hoping to catch them in a vulnerable moment to eliminate the two new members and create openings for Luther and himself to join the group. Pigeon successfully tails them into the ruined part of the city, where a rival gang of six people in leather armor emerges from the shadows and surrounds Steal Team Six. A fight ensues, resulting in one Steal Team Six member falling unconscious and bleeding to death. As Eraser attempts to pay off the ambushers, Pigeon sneaks up behind the rival gang's leader to backstab him. However, Pointer reveals Pigeon's position. In the ensuing chaos, Pigeon throws two daggers at one of the gang members while Steal Team Six escapes, carrying their injured comrade. Pigeon also flees, suffering minor injuries, but ultimately evades his pursuers and returns home.
Later that night, Eraser confronts Pigeon about following them into the ruins. Pigeon claims it was a coincidence, and Eraser appears to accept this explanation. Eraser then mentions that one of their members is incapacitated, prompting Luther to suggest that they join Steal Team Six. Eraser acknowledges the need for new members but stipulates that Luther and Pigeon must first prove themselves by killing Pointer. They agree and promptly head to an alley, where Pigeon swiftly kills Pointer.
