James bought weed from the Family BZ to make some money and started selling on Vinewood Blvd on a stolen bike given to James by Ben Truffle, there he met Ted Grundy a red neck who was kind but also more curious for his own good, Ted went across the street from the weed Sales to try looking through cars and caught the attention of BCSO and SASP resulting in 2 BCSO Tahoe's pulling into the public parking garage across the street from James. James then drove the bike the the street south of Vinewood Blvd and parked it but accidently turned off the bike, after trying to turn on the bike the cops shortly after pulled up on James Star to arrest him for Tampering with a vehicle. James quickly tried to deflect saying he didn't tamper with the car next to him while sitting on the bike which was true but the Officer Johnny Dazzler wasn't having it and checked the bike to see if it was stolen aswell. After the bike came back stolen James Star was arrested for vehicle tampering and misdemeanor possession of marijuana. After lots of questioning in the cells James Star claimed the weed was sold to him from Ted the person he just met in an attempt to avoid putting attention on BZ.

The plan laid out was to ask them to step down and let the other family heads to step up into being the Leader and Co-Leader of BZ. If they refuse leave BZ and only take what the members leaving had earned and in the event the leaders instantly kick them with the idea of giving anything up to people leaving the family then take ALL of the stuff BZ had including 1 Coke Table, 500k in Cash, 2 Million in Drugs and an assortment of cards for jobs. Soon after James Star received word that Erik and Thomas had kicked them like they predicted and put bounties on Eugene Wolfgang and Lizzie Mays heads. This would be the beginning of a new group, no name had be decided on yet so would sometimes refer to each other as the odds ones out or the outsiders. After the split Both BZ and the odd ones out Reach out to James Star asking James to spy on each other, James agreed to spy on BZ for this newly founded group considering he just helped them inside BZ. After meeting with BZ and being shown the text messages Eugene sent to BZ, it was clear there was no attempt to split the family's inventory of gear and money with the split and was clearly just them trying to rob them blind which didn't sit well with James. In the moment James decided to be a Triple Agent and Spy for BZ on the this new Group that would be known as Purple Haze while maintaining the cover as a spy for Purple Haze. This chapter was short lived as Thomas asked North Star for Purple Hazes radio and immediately talked on the wrong radio giving away the cover of James Star, North Star and Bobby Turkalino ending the espionage arc and officially starting the killing and robbing of purple haze for James Star.

Eventually Dead Dawgs ended its chapter in the County and moved elsewhere.

That same day James feeling alone and sad knowing he no longer had his partner in crime handed in any and all illicit goods to Major Crimes as James did not want to commit crime anymore as it would remind him of his time with his ex Wife to prevent any temptation of going back to crime. Unable to sleep James decided for old time sake took his Baseball bat with barbed wire and a hacking tool and crowbar went to a warehouse with the hope of running into the last person he knew, Bill Baker his rival who always foiled his plans when going on petty crime sprees throughout the city.
