Reservoir Dogs Mafia Game thread

[Zigmen]

stop being a baby

Just let it rest. You're going to look like an idiot when my role gets revealed.

[praying]

This is very, very, very something and I don't know what to think. Does that make me gullible?

[ksen]

If zig really wanted out of the game there is a quick surefire method to doing it instead of relying on the GM to do it for him. He says the game is broken but when asked to post his PM he says he doesn't want to break the game . . . huh?

If he's really a seer then scum knows he's not one of them so it's up to them to decide if he's a lying indie bastard or a truth telling townie. Odds are he'd be killed tonight if he was telling the truth or a lying indie because would have no reason not to believe him and they wouldn't be able to afford leaving a seer in the game. If he's really town then maybe his best bet, if he's determined not to play the game out, is to get godkilled so we can focus on finding scum instead of wasting a day wondering about him.

[irretating]

Zigmen, I know something has bothered you but none of us know what it is, so you can appreciate that all we see is you acting scummy and then quitting just before you were going to be lynched anyhow. Even if you're in the right it looks bad on gonzo's game.

So... we need to lynch someone else? When does this game day end?

[Gonzo]

lol

NIGHTFALL

[Gonzo]

I really don't understand why you would reason like this based on what you've reported about night actions. Besides straightforward scenarios such as you're being scum who outed to survive another night and get a 1-1 trade for the real seer (or a scum don trying to get viewed?), there are about half a dozen possibilities that are equally or less far-fetched compared to a GM mistake. Maybe you viewed someone who can't be viewed, maybe the GM culture/conventions at FF or wherever Gonzo learned to GM just differs from Ratz/TR, maybe the flavor is such that blocks aren't reported, etc.

Bingo.

You've elected ksen to be your Mayor.

Zigmen was Joe Cabot - Reservoir Dogs - Seer nabbed by the police on his way back to the warehouse.

Please send your night actions now. Night chat is allowed.

[irretating]

Well, that's... interesting

So charlou, how come zigmen couldn't view you?

[praying]

I can only think of one reason, she is neither town nor scum, she is an indy.

I had this gut feeling about dean/zigmen, I am not surprised.

[irretating]

I started to think he might be legit when I realised he was serious about quitting the game. He wouldn't let his scum team down if he were scum.

Charlou as indy, yes that could work. Gonzo's game design is whacky so who knows what he's come up with.

I'm nervous about feck and ani being so quiet and I'd love to know Aza's thoughts on charlou.

Praying, you know ksen and linus from TR, right? What read do you have on them?

[ksen]

Well, that's... interesting

So charlou, how come zigmen couldn't view you?

Er, gonzo all but said zig was blocked.

What? What was the gut feeling you had praying?

[irretating]

He did? My bad.

Standing over the stashed corpse of Mr. White

MR. BLONDE
Well, that was sure exciting.
(to Mr. Pink)
I don't know
about you , but
my heart's
beatin fast.
(pause for a beat)
Okay Pink, follow me. Down to my car.

MR. PINK
Why?

MR. BLONDE
It's a surprise.

Mr. Blonde walks out.


13 EXT. WAREHOUSE - DAY

Three cars are parked out front. Mr. Blonde is walking
towards the car he drove. Mr. Pink is
walking behind.

MR. PINK
We still gotta get out of here.

MR. BLONDE
We're gonna sit here and wait.

MR. PINK
For what, the cops?

MR. BLONDE
Nice Guy Eddie.

MR. PINK
Nice Guy Eddie? What makes you
think Nice Guy's anywhere but on a
plane half way to Costa Rica?

MR. BLONDE
Cause I just talked to him. He's
on his way down here, and nobody's
going anywhere till he gets here. Okay, take a
look at the little surprise I
brought you.

Mr. Blonde opens up the truck of his car. A handcuffed,
uniformed POLICEMAN is curled up inside the trunk.



MR. BLONDE
So while we're waitin for Nice Guy
Eddie, I say we have a little
fun finding out who the rat is.




INT. WAREHOUSE - DAY

The two men take the cop inside the warehouse and tie him to a chair, beating and interrogating him.

21 EXT. WAREHOUSE - LATER

Eddie drives his car up to the warehouse. He gets out of
the car, looks at the other cars parked outside.

EDDIE
(to himself)
Fucking assholes.

Eddie makes a beeline for the front door, BANGS it open,
and steps inside the warehouse.


21 INT. WAREHOUSE - DAY

The robbers have the cop tied to a chair and are still
WAILING on him.

Nice Guy Eddie walks in and both men jump.

EDDIE
What in Sam Hill is goin on?
.

MR. PINK
Hey, Nice Guy, we got a cop.

Nice Guy sees Mr. Orange.

EDDIE
Holy shit, this guy's all fucked
up!

MR. PINK
We were set up, the cops were
waiting for us.

EDDIE
What? Nobody set anybody up.

MR. PINK
The cops were there waitin for us!

EDDIE
Bullshit.

MR. PINK
Hey, fuck you man, you weren't
there, I was. And I'm tellin
ya, the cops had that store staked
out.

EDDIE
Okay, Mr. Detective, who did it?

MR. PINK
What the fuck d'you think we've
been askin each other?

EDDIE
And what are your answers? Was it
me? You think I set you up?

MR. PINK
I don't know, but somebody did.

EDDIE
Nobody did. You assholes turn the
jewelry store into a wild west
show, and you wonder why cops show
up.

MR. BLONDE
Where's Joseph?

EDDIE
I ain't talked to him. I talked
to Dov. Dov said he's comin out
here, and he's fucking pissed.
Where's Mr. White and Mr.
Blue?

MR. PINK
We don't know.

EDDIE
Nobody saw what happened to them?

MR. BLONDE
Well, either they're dead or they're
alive or the cops got them or they
don't.

DOLLY to MEDIUM on the cop.

EDDIE (OS)
I take it this is the bastard you
told me about.
(referring to the
cop)
Why the hell are you beating on
him?

MR. PINK
So he'll tell us who the fuck set
us up.

EDDIE
Would you stop it with that shit!
You beat on this prick enough,
he'll tell ya he started the
Chicago fire. That don't
necessarily make it so. Okay,
first things fucking last, where's
the shit? Please tell me somebody
brought something
with them.

MR. PINK
I got the diamonds. I stashed them till I
could be sure this place wasn't a
police station.

EDDIE
Well, let's go get it. We also
gotta get rid of all those cars.
It looks like Sam's hot car lot
outside.
(pointing to Mr.
Blonde)
You stay here and babysit Orange
and the cop.
(referring to Mr.
Pink)
You take a car, I'll
follow ya. You ditch it, I'll
pick you up, then we'll pick up
the stones. And while I'm
following you, I'll arrange for
some sort of a doctor for our
friend. Blondie, you stay here and take care of
them two. Pink come
with me, 'cuz if Joe gets here and
sees all those fucking cars
parked out front, he's going to be
as mad at me as he is at you.

Eddie and Mr. Pink walk out of the warehouse
talking amongst themselves.


22 INT. WAREHOUSE - DAY - MR. BLONDE AND COP

Mr. Blonde closes the door after them. He then slowly
turns his head towards the cop.

MR. BLONDE
Alone at last.


C.U. COP'S FACE.

MR. BLONDE (OS)
Now where were we?

COP
I told you I don't know anything
about any fucking set up. I've
only been on the force eight
months, nobody tells me anything!
I don't know anything! You can
torture me if you want--

MR. BLONDE (OS)
--Thanks, don't mind if I do.

COP
Your boss even said there wasn't a
set up.

MR. BLONDE (OS)
First off, I don't have a boss.
Are you clear about that?

He SLAPS the cop's face.

MR. BLONDE (OS)
I asked you a question. Are you
clear about that?

COP
Yes.

MR. BLONDE (OS)
Now I'm not gonna bullshit you. I
don't really care about what you
know or don't know. I'm gonna
torture you for awhile regardless.
Not to get information, but
because torturing a cop amuses me.
There's nothing you can say,
there's nothing you can do.
Except pray for death.

He puts a piece of tape over the cop's mouth.


COP'S POV

Mr. Blonde walks away from the cop.

MR. BLONDE
Let's see what's on K-BILLY'S
"super sounds of the seventies"
weekend.

He turns on the radio.



Mr. Blonde slowly walks toward the cop.

He opens a large knife.

He grabs a chair, places it in front of the cop and sits
in it.

Mr. Blonde just stares into the cop's face, holding
the knife, singing along with the song.

Then, like a cobra, he LASHES out.

A SLASH across the face.



The cop/camera moves around wildly.

Mr. Blonde just stares into the cop's face, singing
along with the seventies hit.

Then he reaches out and CUTS OFF the cop's ear.



The cop moves around wildly.

Mr. Blonde holds the ear up to the cop to see.

Mr. Blonde rises, kicking the chair he was sitting on out
of the way.


23 INT./EXT. WAREHOUSE - DAY - HANDHELD SHOT

We follow Mr Blonde as he walks out of the warehouse...

...to his car. He opens the trunk, pulls out a large can
of gasoline.

He walks back inside the warehouse...


24 INT. WAREHOUSE - DAY

...carrying the can of gas.

Mr. Blonde POURS the gasoline all over the cop, who's
BEGGING him not to do this.



Mr. Blonde just sings along with Stealer's Wheel.

Mr. Blonde LIGHTS up a match and, while mouthing:

MR. BLONDE
"Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right. Here I am,
stuck in the middle with you."

CUT TO:
44 EXT. BLEACHERS - DAY - FLASHBACK

Freddy and Holdaway sit on some bleachers in an empty
little league baseball field.

HOLDAWAY
Okay, we're gonna station men
across the street from Karina's
Fine Jewelry. But their orders
will be not to move in unless the
robbery gets out of control. You
gotta make sure they don't have to
move in. You're inside to make
sure that everything goes
according to Hoyle. We have men
set up a block away from the
warehouse rendezvous. They got
complete visibility of the
exterior. So as soon as Joe Cabot
shows up, we'll see it.

FREDDY
What's your visibility of the
interior?

HOLDAWAY
We can't see shit on the inside.
And we can't risk gettin any
closer for fear they'll spot us.

FREDDY
This is bullshit, Jim. I get all
the fuckin danger of having you
guys in my back pocket but none of
the safety.

HOLDAWAY
What's the matter, Newendyke? Job
too tough for ya? No one lied to
you. You always knew we'd hang
back until Joe Cabot showed up.

FREDDY
Oh this is great. You ain't
giving me no fuckin protection
whatsoever. But you are giving me
an attitude.

HOLDAWAY
Since when does an undercover cop
have protection? Freddy, you came
into this thing with your eyes
wide open, so don't start screamin
blind man now. I understand
you're nervous. I wish the
warehouse had more visible
windows, but it doesn't. We have
to make do with the cards we're
dealt.

FREDDY
I didn't say I wasn't gonna do it.
I'm just remarking on how shitty
the situation is!

HOLDAWAY
I don't mean to be harsh with ya,
but I've found tough love works
best in these situations. We have
to get Joe Cabot in the company of
the thieves and in the same
vicinity as the loot.
We don't care about these other
bastards. We're willing to offer
them good deals to testify against
Cabot.

FREDDY
Isn't this risk unorthodox?

HOLDAWAY
What?

FREDDY
Letting them go ahead with the
robbery?

HOLDAWAY
The whole idea behind this
operation is to catch Joe Cabot
red-handed. We bust these hired
hands, we ain't accomplished shit.
Letting them go through with the
heist is a risk, but Cabot's jobs
are very clean. We got people
surrounding the perimeter. We got
a guy and a gal on the inside
posing as a couple shopping for
rings. We could replace the
employees with cops, but we'd run
the risk of tipping 'em off.

FREDDY
That's out. They know the faces
of who works what shift.

HOLDAWAY
These guys are professionals.
We're professionals. It's a risk,
but I think it's a calculated
risk.

-

Reportedly dead,
Irre was Holdaway - Police - Goon the detective who helped orchestrate the bust on Joe Cabot was murdered by some of Cabot's armed henchmen in response to his incarceration.

You've elected ksen to be your Mayor.

This Day will run until 6AM EST tomorrow due to the early DAYBREAK.

[Azathoth]

Time for me to out. I'm a seer too hence my oddness yesterday. I have reads on feck and ksen both being aligned with the police. Paranoia is a possibility but there is one way to find out.

Vote feck
