Summary
The Street Pirates want to throw a party to celebrate their Kaptain's upcoming recovery, but he's been banned from one of his favorite bars. Cabin Boy fails to convince the bar to let him make a reservation, so he hires runners to solve that problem. Solving things mostly peacefully by collecting some debts accrued in the bar's underground gambling den, Ducky and Muelsyse ensure KAPTAIN KILLDOZER's party can move forward and save Cabin Boy from looking like a fuckup to the rest of his crew.
Background
Prior to the events of Clever run title about cars, KAPTAIN KILLDOZER was hospitalized due to his vehicle being blown up by a Nova Rich ganger before a street race. He's expected to be released soon, and his crew wants to throw him a party to celebrate. Cabin Boy was told to make reservations at The Black Spot, one of the Kaptain's favorite bars, but was denied and laughed at over the comms because the Kaptain was banned from the place after shooting the head bartender's brother in law over thinking the guy was cheating at cards. He really doesn't want to disappoint the rest of the crew, so Cabin Boy turns to the shadows to hopefully find someone more persuasive than he is...
The Meet
Ducky and Muelsyse get told by their respective fixers to meet at a low-rent marina Downtown and meet up with Cabin Boy, a distraught young man who's in the middle of cleaning one of the Street Pirate's Elysium Corsair boats. Ducky startles the young man, and he explains the situation. The runners are unhappy with his initial offer of 2,000¥, and although it pains him greatly and would mean he'd need to sell some personal belongings Ducky does manage to talk him up to a 6,000¥ payday.
He sends over some basic info about the bar, including the fact that it's owned by the First Nation gang, and Ducky calls up some of her sailor buddies to help Cabin Boy finish his chores. Muelsyse doesn't have a vehicle and smells like a Halloweener trap house, so Ducky makes her jump in the ocean before she'll let her ride in her car.
The Plan
The runners head to the Everett docks and find the bar, and head on in to talk to the bartender Charles. Muelsyse orders a fireball and milk, gets told they don't have milk, and then gets sick off a glass full of cinnamon whisky and ice. Ducky explains what they're here for, and Charles reluctantly agrees to forgive the Kaptain's transgressions if the runners can collect some gambling debts that he hasn't had time to follow up on. The team are given two targets: a used car salesman named Paolo Rothstein and a college girl named Bashira Sarraf. With a bit more negotiating, Charles is convinced to give the team 10% of the take in exchange for doing this work for him.
