Hotdog offers to buy a kidney from Minerva, but Minerva passes up, asking the team to save mrs Vist from the annoying and rambunctious actor. Inside the office, a one Casey Coates is standing on top of the table posing in a Shakespearian way. The runners try to take her with them, in order to clear out the office.

She also asks the runners for a stage name, and for them to go on some 'crimes'.

Casey then pulls out a gun and calls it an "acting aid" and the team flips out, Argentum disarms her. Trades empties the gun, shaking her head as she finds it fully loaded. Trades mentions that Casey should stay in character, as gangsters always practice gun safety. Argentum shakes her head, saying under her breath that "I can't believe I have to spend a day with her." Casey says that in order to get better at acting, she wants to rob a convenience store to get into characters, but the team is quick to say "NO", offering different suggestions for crimes to commit. Lady Argentum says if she wants to commit a crime, Casey can use her knife to harm Argentum, and Casey says "No! Crimes are about the friends you made along the way!"

With leadership from the trio, including words of encouragement from Trades, it seems that she's clearly inspired to do more. Through magic, luck, and charisma, Casey proves in an obscene performance, that she has the chops, just needs a push in the right direction.
After the dust settles, hotdog suggests they get a motel to plan their adventures further, and Casey agrees.

This was a nice relaxing bit. Casey was pretty fun to be around and I'm really glad that we got to put together that show for her. Being able to put a hard shutdown on the interloper’s rigger using my technomancy felt very nice. Hopefully her career goes well and she doesn't try pulling off one of these on her own. Or, at the very least, she’ll ask us for back up first.
