==🕶️ General Description ==
Wade Wilson is the Vice President of the Raiders MC. He covers his face with a mask, and rarely feels comfortable enough to take it off. He is often seen wearing a cap and black sunglasses.
==🦅 Background ==
Wade Wilson was in the Lost MC from August 2020 to October 2022. During that time, he earned the patch of "Tail Gunner" and was convicted of treason for fighting for the People's Republic of Sandy Shores in the War in Sandy Shores. Wade joined the HOA in October 2022, and used to be part of Yokai. While Wade was in jail for breaking parole (stipulated in his plea agreement for murdering Cesar Delgado), the Los Santos government collapsed and his whole circle of friends (Echo Gray, Annie Omen, Taryn Adler, and Asher Brooks) moved to California. Roughly five years later, Wade co-founded the Raiders MC with President Darcy Lane (whom he had met in jail).
==🐍 History ==
Co-Founding the New Raiders MC
As the first Vice President of the new Raiders MC, Wade dealt with several issues and growing pains within the club such as sassy attitudes and former members of the RICO'd Bondi Boys MC fraternizing with various Raiders MC members. Wade's politically passionate President Lane also ruffled a few feathers when she pitched to various MCs that they leverage the new City Council toward MC interests, and all vote together in a singular MC bloc for the first mayoral election. In particular, a Raiders MC meeting on December 26, 2023 with Wade's former group the Lost MC slighted their Vice President Oshiera Petros--because she found Lane brash for not introducing each Raiders MC member before jumping into election talk, and for advising the Lost MC on what to ask a mayoral candidate. Lane's new friend, former BBMC member Sean "Irish" McQuillen, also cautioned Sergeant At Arms Taylor Archer that Lane's organization of an MC summit rubbed a few members in long-established clubs the "wrong way" because of the perceived threat against any leakers and also the MC members' cynicism that the first Mayor of Los Santos would actually do anything they promised. After Taylor advised Lane that the MC summit looked too much like a play for power, Wade agreed with Taylor that they focus inward. In a manic response, Lane left it up to the Lost MC to organize the MC summit themselves since they were the ones who originally suggested it, and gave up on outreach to the other MCs about the first mayoral election. As a way to screen which MC members actually wanted long-term relationships rather than just information, Lane set a temporary new club rule to be reactive toward them rather than proactive. Lane also instructed that the Raiders MC always dodge questions about club business.
Lane finally squashed the beef with Lost MC Vice President Oshiera Petros in a one-on-one conversation on January 7, 2024. Later that day in a Raiders MC meeting, Lane ended the grace period and cracked down on interruptions and sassy attitudes during non-personal club talk. After the Raiders MC voted 7-0 to buy a smaller clubhouse, Lane successfully purchased the El Burro Heights,Amarillo Vista,5 house property for $185,400 before storm hit.
By January 9, 2024, Wade and Lane were completely exhausted from working sanitation--but felt obligated to keep going because they were the only two Raiders consistently around. Lane explained to Wade that some people in the city already had the advantage of five-year-old relationships, and wanted the Raiders MC to similarly build good relationships with people outside of the club instead of just handling everything themselves.
Due to commitments in another city, Wade's friend Taylor Archer stepped down as Sergeant At Arms from the Raiders MC high command on January 13, 2024. The next day, Lane and Wade decide to leave the Sergeant At Arms role vacant with Wade assuming the responsibilities for it. With mayoral candidate Maximilian Thoroughbred leading comfortably in the exit polls, the Raiders MC decided 5-1 to vote for current runner-up Stelio Lambros to help him win Deputy Mayor. Wade had dissented in favor of "non-puppet" candidate Michael Simone, who ended up winning the Deputy Mayor seat as the runner-up in the election while Maximilian Thoroughbred became the inaugural Mayor of Los Santos in a landslide victory.
On January 20, 2024, the Raiders MC voted 6-0 to confirm Taylor's new rank of Nomad--an honor reserved for founders who retire. As a Raiders MC Nomad, she could still wear a kutte and didn't have to pay dues anymore, but no longer had a vote at chapter meetings.
Disciplinary Actions against Road Captain Mason
With the Raiders MC finally bringing in their first hangarounds (Maeve Gray, Wally West, and Thomas Aoki) on January 20, 2024, Wade forewarned that should those hangarounds become prospects, each sponsor would be held accountable for their prospect's actions. The next night, Lang Buddha of the LSSU - Los Santos Sanitation Union phoned Wade to ensure they weren't undercutting the market, and wanted to keep a standardized price for materials across the board. Wade hated sanitation but liked selling materials to the former HOA that he used to be High Stocks for. The next day, Wade noticed manic episode symptoms in Lane such as running goofier, walking faster, and being more chipper, cheery, and hyperactive.
Later that night on January 22, 2024 against the wishes of Enforcer Rue Day and Lane, Road Captain Mason Calaway jokingly threw Rue off the pier in front of hangarounds Wally and Tom. Afterward in a private conversation, Lane threatened to strip Mason of his Road Captain rank; then threatened to physically hurt him if he kept disobeying her direct order to leave. For Mason's punishment on January 24, 2024, Wade gave him one final warning that they would strip him of his third-in-command Road Captain rank the next time he showed any kind of disrespect to a club member. Wade fined Mason $500 for the pier incident and another $5000 for overdue fees, said he was on the "thinnest of ice", and punitively beat Mason down in front of Lane.
On January 25, 2024, in a pier meeting with Kermy Fulker of the former HOA, he shared important sanitation secrets with Wade, Lane, and Rue. Later that night, a local shot Rue during her weed run with Patched Member Maxx McAllister, Wally, Tom, and Mason. With Rue in surgery at the hospital, Maxx left hangarounds Wally and Tom posted outside of the operating room. As Maxx and Mason stood guard in the hospital lobby watching for police, she saw him on his phone and angrily threatened to bash his head in. Lane and Wade fined Maxx $250 in her next club dues after she admitted that she shouldn't have said it. Afterward, Lane and Wade told Mason that as third-in-command, he should have taken control of that situation and that Maxx felt let down by him. Although Lane believed his defense that he only used the phone to look inconspicuous and was just fidgeting with it out of habit, she said it didn't change Maxx's perception of him. Mason confessed that he was afraid to forcibly pull rank in that situation because of the club's perception that he had abused his rank in the past. Lane and Wade decided to sleep on whether to derank him, privately agreeing to each other that he wasn't ready to be Road Captain.
Later in the night after Mason's talk with his sister Allie, he admitted to Lane and Wade that despite a desire to be command, Mason realized he wasn't ready for it. Mason voluntarily stepped down from Road Captain, saying that he wanted to earn it. Lane and Wade respected his decision and remained open-minded to the possibility that he could earn his club members' respect and get voted back into command.
But Mason became a problem for the Raiders MC yet again when he accepted a persistent invitation from Already Dead MC patched member Rue Minmi to hang out. Despite misgivings from the Raiders MC, Mason played Rue Minmi's "performative" mind game where they asked about each other's clubs. During a private Chumash Pier conversation on January 28, 2024 where Chaplain Allie ordered her brother Mason to stop prying into ADMC business with Rue Minmi, the ADMC Vice Prime Minister Sean "Irish" McQuillen led a melee-armed ADMC party onto the Raiders MC's turf. Irish called Allie to warn them to drop their phones and knives on the ground, which she and a confused Mason both did (Mason dropped his wrench). When she refused to swim away with Mason (who wanted to escape instead), he asked her whether she had set him up. Irish accused Mason of prying into ADMC business with both Rue Minmi and EMS Deputy Chief Veronica Westfield (an ADMC associate). After Irish saw multiple personal texts to former BBMC member Aubrey Synnefo in Mason's phone, Irish warned and threatened him, and left with his phone. Allie informed Wade that Mason had texted her and admitted he was playing "mind games" with Rue Minmi, which is why Allie was talking privately with him and urging him to stop it. Afterward, Wade beat Mason for saying Allie had set him up (which if true would be punishable by death).
After Irish sent snapshots to Wade and Allie of Mason's month-old texts to Aubrey about the BBMC, Wade asked to meet with him in the hopes of keeping the situation from escalating. Irish invited Wade to the Yard (the ADMC's turf)--and when Wade arrived, all of the available ADMC were congregated outside as a show of force. Wade told Irish that that he'd rather have a good relationship between clubs than this information prying drama, that the leadership from both clubs should sort out issues like this going forward, and that he was unhappy with how it happened but was against retaliation. Irish promised to return Mason's phone. Afterward, Wade put a hold on Raiders MC members socializing with the ADMC. Lane woke up and agreed with Wade to not retaliate. Although she fumed at Mason (for his accusation against Allie and for repeatedly hanging out with Rue Minmi), she also found Irish's accusation hypocritical and his "big-dicking" disrespectful. She angrily ordered Wade to only talk to Prime Minister Barry Benson going forward instead of Irish.
After Lane cooled off and began coming down from her manic episode the next day, she called Irish in one final attempt to fix their friendship--but sensed hostility from him and decided to give up (Lane didn't believe his excuses that he was too busy to contact her and was "terrible" at reaching out, because of the three times he had met up with Allie). Later that same day on January 29, 2024, in a heartbreaking conversation with Lane, Chaplain Allie left the Raiders MC. She said she felt like she didn't fit into their group dynamic and didn't have the trust of the club (particularly from her own brother Mason, Rue Day, and to a lesser extent Wade). Allie said that she only felt loyal to Lane (her lifelong best friend of two decades) and not to the rest of the club. Afterward, a devastated and disappointed Lane announced Allie's decision to leave to the Raiders MC. As a founder of the club, Allie was allowed to walk away without being blooded out (to Rue's chagrin). However with Allie no longer under the Raiders MC's official protection and about half of the club (Rue and Maxx) angry with her, Lane (who still cared about her) began probing for who would be there for Allie if she ever needed help. She concluded from ADMC Patched Member Shang Liu's hesitant answers that he didn't know her well enough. Both Mason and Wade affirmed their loyalty to Allie, though both Lane and Wade agreed that Allie would lose her founder status if she ever came back.
A Commitment to Trust Wade's Former Groups
In the aftermath of the Chumash Pier incident, Lane lost all interest in a relationship with the Already Dead MC as she now considered them too disrespectful and egotistical from a legacy they had built five years ago as the Bondi Boys MC. Lane and Wade fully committed to strengthening alliances with the Lost MC (particularly with their VP Oshiera Petros), the former HOA (particularly with Kermy Fulker), and the Chaos Legion MC. In the Raiders MC chapter meeting on February 2, 2024 (where they unanimously voted hangarounds Wally West and Tom Aoki in as prospects, the latter whom Wade volunteered to sponsor), the Raiders MC voted 5-0 to claim a turf to push weed in Sandy (a turf they would go on to share with other MCs). Lane also withdrew the temporary rule against reaching out to MCs to build relationships with them; but emphasized that they beware of snakes and cut them off at the head (and to keep personal relationships personal without prying into other groups). She added that members were no longer obligated to spend time with hangarounds, and encouraged the members to spend time with friends and to build relationships outside of the club.
In a "meet-and-greet" with The "Paleto District" on February 3, 2024, Kermy Fulker introduced Lane to Nico Kanto, Erin Cox, Siz Fulker, and Andi Jones. As they compared notes with Lane and Wade on the various jobs in the city, she transparently discussed her plan to work with other MCs to sell weed in Sandy--in theory, separating production and distribution (of ideally one weed strain) between groups to reduce the risk of a hefty drug trafficking charge. She explained that she didn't want the Raiders MC to be good at everything--she wanted to work with and earn the trust of other groups, especially given how new the Raiders MC were to Los Santos. Everyone present liked the idea of conspiring together on one weed strain.
The Hunt for Kirk Jerkems and the "Los Santos Medical Club"
On February 7, 2024, Wade and the Raiders MC hunted Kirk Jerkems (disguised as vaudevillian and "Bread Gang" leader "Humphrey Pumpernickel") for slicing Wally West with a knife in the waters of the Vespucci canals. Kirk had been running from Rue Day, Wally, and Thomas Aoki because of the prank calls Kirk had made to the Raiders MC--and wound up slicing Wally over his falsified claim that Rue had stabbed Kirk's friend Pico Pingafria (disguised as "Tony Tortilla"). In retaliation, Rue stabbed Pico for real and left with his phone (with contacts) and hunting rifle. Wade finally caught Kirk near Mirror Park. Kirk had tried to mount a slowing semi-truck to get away, but got dragged underneath the wheels instead. Laughing, Wade took him with Rue to a remote location. They let Kirk off with a warning without bothering to unmask him, and Wade took his IFAK and phone before they dropped him off at the hospital. Wade returned Kirk's phone afterward.
The MCs became offended when Emergency Medical Services workers--advertising themselves as the LSMC in the yellow pages (abbreviated from "Los Santos Medical Club")--wore denim kuttes (with a paramedic patch on the back) and jokingly masqueraded as MC members. In a Chumash Pier meeting with Lane and Wade on February 11, 2024, VP Oshiera Petros explained that the Lost MC had blooded out Lottie's Old Lady Dr. Ryan Wilson who had cheated on her with PD officer Louise Campbell--and suspected that "LSMC Old Lady" Louise wanted to bait the Lost MC into attacking EMS to push the new E.G.O. Act. That same day, "LSMC Road Captain" Charlotte Spade fired ADMC Patched Member Finn Milton from the EMS. EMS Chief Kiki Pendragon cited several complaints that people "didn't feel safe" around him (he kept talking about crime and threatened to stab a colleague), and also informed Irish that Finn had been threatening Charlotte and other "LSMC" to take off the denim or else he and his gang will come after them.
The ADMC, Lost MC, and Raiders MC united in a twatter war against Charlotte Spade over the kuttes. The three MCs met at The Boneyard for an "MC summit". Lane had VP Oshiera Petros explain the context around the LSMC and her Louise theory to the ADMC. Finn singled out Louise and Charlotte as the instigators, to which all of the MCs agreed to look for them. After they split up, VP Irish and Finn used "LSMC Sgt at Arms" Franklin "Happy" Lee to lure Charlotte down to the beach--where Lost MC President Floki Bartram, VP Oshiera, VP Wade, and Rue Day showed up in solidarity on Irish's invitation. Floki rebuked Charlotte and stabbed her in the gut to send a message to the rest of LSMC. The MCs returned Happy's phone and left him unharmed.
Later that day on February 11, 2024 in a prospecting ceremony beginning at Chumash Pier, both Wally West and Thomas "Tom" Aoki accepted Lane's offer to join the Raiders MC as their first two prospects. In Sandy, Lane tasked them to each catch a rattlesnake in a black silk bag and then walk back to Chumash together. At Chumash Pier, Wally and his sponsor Rue Day recited the prospecting oath. Tom and his sponsor Wade recited the prospecting oath. Rue and Wade then coaxed the snakes into biting their prospects (which the prospects later had to name and take care of for the duration of their prospecting phase). The Raiders MC took the poisoned prospects to the hospital to get treated with antivenom, then dressed the prospects up in their kuttes at the clothing store. Afterward in the chapter meeting, Tom (the only prospect still awake after storm) was allowed to listen in on their chapter meeting without speaking. Lane announced that she and Wade agreed to resist spending club money and to keep it in a safe for big purchases such as motorbikes or a house. She also announced that the Lost MC agreed to push Snake Pit in Sandy while she and Wade helped them to get to 100 rep and gave the free non-Snake Pit weed. Wade announced an agreement with Nico Kanto that the Raiders would push DINO NUGZ in Paleto for a week on The Paleto District app in exchange for the Paleto District pushing Snake Pit for a week on the Raiders MC app. Mason Calaway talked about sewers runs, Wade talked about pawn runs, and Rue talked about roof runs. Lane and Wade recapped the LSMC situation (with a final to-do to kidnap Louise Campbell for the Lost MC), and Rue Day warned she and Wade might have warrants for Floki Bartram stabbing A-EMT Charlotte Spade.
On February 15, 2024, Lane declined Kirk Jerkems' phone offer of $2500 to hurt Bobby Beldrum because Bobby is her "best friend's grandpa". When Kirk mocked her and called the Raiders MC a "book club", she decided that his disrespect had finally crossed the line and ordered Wade to stab him. Wade, Maxx McAllister, Thomas Aoki, and Wally West rolled up on Kirk outside of Snr. Buns, where Wade stabbed Kirk and left.
The Wild West in Sandy Shores
Deterred from sanitation runs due to the constant robberies (and Wade's personal hatred of grinding materials), Wade shifted attention to pushing weed in Sandy Shores rather than growing it. Mostly ignored by the police, Sandy Shores was turning into a wild west with the Raiders MC and the Lost MC beginning to actively corner the Snake Pit strain there at the same time that The Company was cornering their ANITA strain there. The area was plagued with bad desert weather, hostile locals, and even birds addicted to weed.
In a Chumash Pier meeting with old friends James Haze and Jase Dawson on February 16, 2024, Wade listened to Atty. Haze's pitch for his new law firm to represent the Raiders MC.
Later that day in the chapter meeting, Lane set goals for the week that she's out: that the Raiders MC complete one sanitation run a day with Wade, that Maxx McAllister and Wally West get up to 100% weed pushing rep, that the Raiders MC get the Sandy Shores turf rep up, that the safe get up to $100,000 in clean cash, and that everyone meet one new person that week. Afterward in the Raiders MC clubhouse, Lane shared with the club that she had entered a depressive state--and informed Wally and Tom that it happens to her every other month or so.
On February 17, 2024 on the Sandy weed turf, Wade (with Mason Calaway and Wally West) verbally agreed to friendly competition with KJ of The Company so that they could co-exist on the same Sandy weed turf rather than conflict. Later that same day in an impromptu chapter, Lane put forward Maxx McAllister's name for a majority vote to promote her to Road Captain (the Raiders MC's highest Command position as well as the current third-in-command). The Raiders MC voted 3-1 to promote Maxx to Road Captain (Maxx did not vote). The previous Road Captain Mason (who had been trying to earn the position back) voted nay.
With weed becoming harder to push in Sandy Shores due to aggressive locals, police patrols, and The Company allegedly encouraging people to rob the Raiders pushers, the Raiders MC agreed in their March 8, 2024 chapter meeting to abandon pushing weed in Sandy in favor of Wade's alternative of pushing The Paleto District's weed for Nico Kanto in Paleto.
The Blooding Out of Lost MC Ally Oshiera
During the police investigation of the Charlotte Spade stabbing, Officer Anita May subpoenaed the phone records of both Irish and Finn Milton with "several" witnesses including a redacted one. Irish, Finn, and Wade also got warrants--but curiously, not Floki Bartram or Oshiera Petros. In a Chumash Pier meeting on March 1, 2024, Wade and Lane forewarned their close ally Oshiera that Irish was questioning why neither Lost MC member had a warrant. Soon after, the ADMC pinged Oshiera to her own house. Wade expedited his warrant investigation, found out that Officer Alex Suarez had issued it, and phoned Irish that it had nothing to do with the Charlotte stabbing. At Oshiera's house, she admitted to Irish and the ADMC that she had given Anita a statement that claimed ignorance to Charlotte's stabbing (Anita had asked Oshiera about the twatter war when she visited her sister Sooty Gamwich in the hospital). Irish pressured Oshiera to retract the statement as a test to see whether the warrants get dropped as a result, but she refused because she didn't like being bullied. Irish gave her 24 hours to retract it. In a Kortz Center meeting between the ADMC and Raiders MC, Irish and Finn informed Lane, Wade, Maxx, and Rue that Oshiera had refused to retract her police statement. Lane agreed on principle that Oshiera should retract a police statement that she shouldn't have given in the first place, and that Oshiera dating Senior Officer Kian McNulty was a problem. Afterward, Lane convinced Oshiera to retract the statement given how bad the optics looked for both her and the Lost MC's reputation.
On March 5, 2024, KJ informed Wade that the turf reputation fell in Sandy Shores possibly because of competition with the Cypress turf, and offered to sell Snake Pit on the Raiders MC HQ app to get the Sandy turf rep up. Later that day in Sandy Shores, Probationary Police Officer Lenny Hawk rolled up on Finn and his girlfriend Rue Day, and informed him that he had a warrant (due to the Charlotte Spade stabbing). Finn and Rue swam in the Alamo Sea with two PD boats in pursuit. Wade picked up both Rue and Finn in a pawn car on a mountainside swarming with police. When Lenny pit Wade's smoking car off an overpass onto the train tracks below, Finn ran off and got cuffed by the police trying to get into Cora Star's pickup car. Wade repaired the pawn car, and escaped with Rue from a solo police officer who had rolled up. While processing Finn for Accomplice to Attempted Murder of a Government Employee, Lenny noticed that Oshiera's cop boyfriend Kian McNulty had edited the police report several times (Oshiera's statement was also gone from the police report).
Tired of being the Vice President of the Lost MC with so few members around, Oshiera decided to leave the club. She confided in her cop boyfriend McNulty how she had to meet the ADMC alone outside of the house she and McNulty shared, and felt caged from always having to worry about the politics of the different MC cultures. Although President Floki Bartram preferred a retirement vote for Oshiera, she opted to be blooded out of the Lost MC instead. Oshiera was "sent home" on March 7, 2024.
First Heat Pawn Runs
On February 19, 2024, The Paleto District leader Siz Fulker invited Wade to his first-ever jewelry Hot Run from the Pawnshop (tier 3, 1500 jewelry). Wade tasked Rue Day, Mason Calaway, Wally West, and Thomas Aoki to push and run weed while the police were preoccupied. At the pawn car, both Wade and Siz went down sniping at the local armed guards with hunting rifles. Andi Jones and ADMC HC Edbert Ropeburn ran over the final guard. Erin Cox drove getaway in the pawn car from the police (with Rod Long as a bleeding passenger) while Andi and Edbert drove Wade and Siz to the hospital. After the 15-minute tracker expired, Siz drove a Baller to Erin's ping so that Wade could repair her smoking job car. Wade followed Erin and Siz to the successful dropoff by the Paleto pier for a payout of $18,000 in rolled cash.
Wade was the getaway car driver of the pawn car on March 11, 2024, when the Raiders MC turned in 1000 jewelry into the Pawnshop for their first-ever High Risk (tier 2) pawn run. After Wade lockpicked the unguarded pawn car (a Bravado) with an intermittent tracker on it, he struggled to drive it to five guarded pickup spots (Sandy Shores Airfield hangar, Grapeseed fish market, Del Perro Pier, the orange Observatory ball, and industrial area Ammu-Nation) with Lane in the passenger seat phoning orders and periodically repairing the car. A local occasionally shot at the pawn car. Mason Calaway and Thomas Aoki drove to each pickup spot ahead of time to shoot down its three local guards with hunting rifles. Wally West drove passenger Rue Day (who gave police callouts) in a stolen backup car and drew away two police cars in Del Perro. Although Officer Matt Dark-Rhodes began chasing the pawn car, Wade lost him in a sandstorm. Mason and Tom used up their rifle ammo at the orange Observatory ball, so they had to run over the local guards at the final pickup spot at the industrial area Ammu-Nation. The whole Raiders MC convoy headed to the lumber yard docks, where Wade and Lane rode a motorboat to an island and dropped off the goods for a payout of $10,000 in rolled cash.
Wade was the pawn car driver again on March 13, 2024, when the Raiders MC turned in 1500 jewelry into the Pawnshop for their first-ever Hot Run (tier 3). Mason and Wally shot down the local armed guards at the pawn car. Wade lockpicked the pawn car (a Growler), activating a 15-minute tracker. He drove it with Lane as the passenger. Rue refueled the pawn car. Wade and Lane wandered the night-shrouded countryside while the crew scouted for police. Once the tracker timed out, Wade dropped off the goods for nearly $21,000 in rolled cash. No police responded. Lane commented that this hot pawn run was way easier than their medium pawn run.
The Raiders MC successfully completed three more heat pawns runs (2 High Risk and 1 Hot Run) with Wade driving the pawn car and Lane as the pawn car passenger. They almost got caught on the Hot Run when Rue had to repair the pawn car (a Bravado Gauntlet) after it started smoking in the police chase with about nine minutes left on the tracker; however, the police broke off to respond to a laundromat heist. The total $41,000 in rolled cash went straight into the club account.
On March 19, 2024, Wade and Lane turned in 1000 jewelry into the Pawnshop and duo'd their wildest High Risk pawn run yet (the Raiders MC's sixth pawn heat run and their first duo run). At the beginning of the job, aggressive locals followed the pawn car in a station wagon and opened fire--taking out the pawn car, passenger Lane, and driver Wade. After Wade and Lane left the hospital, they were able to find and repair the disabled pawn car. However after Wade stole the first pawnshop crate of goods, he got so scuffed he couldn't drive the pawn car anymore. Lane took over driving the pawn car as Wade sat in the passenger seat hallucinating out-of-control cars. Wade was able to steal the pawnshop crates from the final four spots. She drove him (in a broken passenger seat) across the train tracks to Paleto, where they abandoned the smashed bullet-ridden pawn car. Lane also had to drive the boat for a scuffed Wade. Wade successfully collected the $10,000 in rolled cash on the island. Afterward, he napped at Chumash Pier.
With Wade now buying The Guild weed strain "Zazo" from Nico (for $600 per weed brick) to push as the top weed strain in Paleto, Wade had misgivings about Allie's offer on April 19, 2024 to traffic her "Pineapple Express" weed strain in Paleto. Wade didn't want to grow weed anymore because of the misery of trying to push the lower weed strain in Sandy Shores. However, he agreed to put Alice on the Raiders MC app to grow "Pineapple Express" as a backup weed strain to sell if they couldn't get weed from Nico.
Wade vs. Mayor Maximilian Thoroughbred
By the time Mayor Maximilian Thoroughbred ran for re-election, the Raiders MC had soured on him and felt more partial to a rival Already Dead MC candidate he hated named Solomon Walker. On April 19, 2024 at the Chumash Pier, Carmine Costello overheard Rue Day's phone call in her car where she said if Mayor Max is here she needs to leave (because she was still mad about his demeaning response to her PD quota system question). When Carmine told Max (who mistook her for Rue Minmi of the ADMC), the two of them confronted Rue at her car and antagonized her until she ran Carmine over. Rue tried to run over Max next, then chased him on foot but was thwarted by the wrench of bystander Raymond Romanov. Mason Calaway put her in her car and drove off with her. Intending to target Mayor Max's wife Siobhan Thoroughbred, Wade looked up her information at Davis City Hall. Immediately afterward outside of the building, Wade and Rue ran into Mayor Max and Siobhan. During a heated exchange of words, Max associated Rue with the ADMC and claimed Solomon was attempting to seize control of the government for the ADMC. Max swore to Wade and Rue that if he got re-elected, he would make their lives a living hell. Wade threatened back, "So will we." Siobhan texted her friend Lane that Wade was a "hater" under the expectation that she would reprimand her own VP, and Max said he couldn't wait to outlaw motorcycle clubs. Later that day, Rue and Wally West found Max's car and robbed it; then Wade and Wally clamped it. Then after an unarmed Finn Milton got shot by the police, Max antagonized him and Rue.
On April 20, 2024, Lane saw Siobhan's "hater" text and immediately sided with Wade without knowing what happened. Once their text exchange ended with Lane texting that she didn't care what Siobhan thought, Siobhan blocked her. Afterward, Lane twatted "Max, should probably check on your wife, she seems hysterical". Later that day in the election announcement, Max won a second term as Mayor of Los Santos while ADMC candidate Solomon Walker won Deputy Mayor as the runner-up. Lane and Wade agreed to still target Siobhan (regardless of whether she was Chief of Staff) and Max, and entertained conspiring with the ADMC.
The Raiders MC kept a lookout for Siobhan's car. On April 22, 2024 at Legion Square, Siobhan was sitting alone in the passenger seat of her car waiting for Mayor Max to return. Finn drove up to her car (with both Rue Day and Rue Minmi) without seeing her, and booted her car right in front of the police. Lane, Mason Calaway, and ADMC Rue all began slow-rolling Siobhan's car. ADMC Rue successfully fled from police Sgt. Kian McNulty's felony stop.
In a Chumash Pier meeting on April 23, 2024, the newly-elected Deputy Mayor Solomon Walker explained his political agenda to Raiders MC members Lane, Wade, Maxx McAllister, and Dax Marshall. Lane criticized Mayor Max's PD quota system for monetarily incentivizing the police to stack charges. When she directly asked Solomon whether he was part of the Already Dead MC, he responded to ask him again in three months. Lane warned Solomon that Mayor Max would undoubtedly try to pass legislation against the MCs. Solomon stated that past City Council members lacked backbone, and that he wouldn't be afraid to voice a dissenting opinion. Lane and Solomon went over the City Council members who might side against Mayor Max, and agreed that the current government legislation was too controlling. Lane and Wade vowed to keep antagonizing Mayor Max. Wade vouched for Serge Cross in the runoff election for Head of BAR Association.
First Laundromat Heist (The "Shell Game" Plan)
On April 23, 2024 for the Raiders MC's first-ever laundromat heist, six of them all dressed the same in white suits with identical bull masks for a "shell game" plan. Lane cut the generator power, alphabet-hacked the inside power box to disable the power, and broke washing machines and dryers with Wade for coins. Wade stole the USB and successfully lockpick-hacked the safe open for banded cash. Rue Day held Rod Raige hostage, gave customer Shang Liu food after she had to turn him away, and negotiated with Snr. Officer Flop Dugong. During the ensuing police chase, Wade drove Lane and Rue in a red Draugur to the red garage where Wally West, Mason Calaway, and Dax Marshall were waiting with two other stolen Draugurs: one blue and one white.
All six of the Raiders MC crew shuffled around each other, and split up evenly into the three colored cars (two of the cars being decoys with no loot). Cadet Crocodile Steve (with Snr. Officer Cletus Cornwood as his passenger) and Snr. Officer Ellis Pinzon chased the blue Draugur driven by Wally West with Rue as his passenger. Officer Alexis Onfire chased the correct swap car with all of the loot, the white Draugur driven by Wade with Lane as his passenger, but broke off to help Pinzon chase the blue Draugur. No police chased Mason (with Dax as his passenger) in the red Draugur, so he drove interference for Wally. Wally eventually lost all the police in a wild chase. The Raiders MC exchanged 10,987 coins for about $2746 in banded cash. Afterward, Wade gave Rue $30,000 in club funds (and Lane also gave Rue about $13,000 in "friend money") to help Rue buy her first motorbike. Rue bought a Hexer from Finn Milton at Mosley's Auto.
