Mute

Briefing

Network has the location of one Steve 'Mute' Mutombo. This guy's been arrested more times than any other Family member, and he's never flipped on them. He's done like 12 years in the Zig covering for others, and that earned him his nickname. He was broken out a few months back and is living in the Rogue Isles outside of any extradition. Now we know he probably won't talk so we're not asking you to interrogate him.

  • What are you asking me to do then?

Trick him into giving something up. If that fails, beat him into submission. That's the one method the cops in Paragon never tried.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Still here? Go talk to Network

Briefing

Target known as Mute is somewhere in this facility. Now I am willing to help you, but I need a favor in return.

  • Favor? We're all on the same team here!
At the end of the day, I'm on only one team: Team Network. The Hammers is a good payday, but I am thinking it can be better.
I'm not going in so I am not getting the hazard pay you are, but if you let the bosses know that I -was- in trouble, then we can both profit nicely from this op.
  • Stuff it, Network. I'll deal with Mute without your help.
Listen, that kind of attitude is what made me flip on the Family and join the Hammers to begin with. Don't make me regret my choice.
This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented.
  • Ok, I'll see about getting you some hazard pay.
Ok, I've texted all the Family here, and they know to give you a wide berth. Said you were here on behalf of the big boss himself. They should leave you alone until you try to take out Mute anyway. Make sure you hit their computers and get any intel you can.
  • Leave
  • Favor. Right, whatever you need, Network.
Listen, that kind of attitude is what made me flip on the Family and join the Hammers to begin with. Don't make me regret my choice.
  • I don't need your help in taking out these mooks.
You can fight your way to Mute for all I care.
  • Leave
  • You're right, give me the details and help me out.

Editor's Note:

If you refuse Network's help, the Family mobs will turn hostile right away and you will not get the briefing with Mute.

Some good information on the family is contained in these files.

Mute's Files
A treasure trove of intel from the most silent of the Family members.

Briefing

You're the one here on the boss' orders, right?

  • Yeah, that's me.
So what's the boss want now? I did that last job for him just like he asked.
  • He just wanted to make sure that things ended up where they were supposed to.
(Mute shakes his head) Yeah, I put the body in the usual place, just like I always do.
  • What place is that?
Wha-? Intruder!
  • Boss said he didn't get the usual confirmation. Sent me to make sure.
Mute sighs
How is it MY FAULT that Jake at the junkyard can't make a simple call? I put the body in the trunk, he's the one that crushed it, he should have made the call when it was all done.
  • I'll take that to the boss
  • What was that job again?
Wha-? Intruder!
  • Leave
  • Actually I am here to do some pretty heinous things to you.
Wha-? Intruder!
  • Leave


Debriefing

I understand that Network was kinda beligerent, but I see that everything got taken care of in some fashion.
