Anton contacts Morano to obtain the product.
(rolls 6 successes, with Messy Critical)...
The hand-over goes ahead, but Anton is suspicious of the mule's behaviour and believes that the meet has been compromised. This results in the mule being wounded during the exchange. Anton leaves a message advising Morano of this and suggesting that his courier may be exposed and that he should sever ties.
 
Anton distributes the first batch to his crew and then leaves them to see how they do. He walks to the Haven, and finds Larissa ready to feed on Malady. He drags Larissa back, but she is raving about Malady saying nothing but "Victoria, Victoria, Victoria" over and over again, which she is not. Anton eventually manages to settle her, and she goes to freshen up while he talks to Malady.
 
Malady suggests that something from the spirt world might be calling out to Larissa, and reminds Anton that that the Coterie passed near Victoria Wharf when they were attending to their first mission together. Anton decides they will go down the Wharf to see if that has any effect on Larissa. When they get there, the Malkavian Primogen, Ronnie, who gives Anton an "eyes-only" folder to deliver to Nora, the Ventrue Primogen. Anton leaves the girls to attend to this task... which takes most of the night.
 
Flicking through the folder as he searches, it looks like valuations of "odd looking" artworks. Anton takes "backup" photos of any of the documents that have pictures.
 
Anton eventually finds Nora, who bides him to walk with her. After Nora questions whether or not Anton checked the contents, the Beast forces Anton to grab the folder back and spill the contents out onto the street. This does not go over well with Nora, who subjugates him, forcing him too crawl around like a dog and collect the papers, then offer them up to her in his mouth.
 
After Anton picks up the girls and returns to the Haven, he sees somebody standing out the front wearing a trilby, brown jacket, olive green slacks and brown boots with Cuban heel, but the figure has disappeared as the car pulls up.
 
He drops the girls at the Haven and, after being unable to contact Willow, has the driver take him to The Rack, where he starts an altercation with a redhead bloke who appears somewhat inebriated. The patron strikes him and the buncer turfs Anton out for starting the fight. Anton compels the bouncer to throw the other person out, but he is taken out the back door. Anton goes round the back and daunts him, taking him into the shadows and begins to feed, but discovers that it is a thinblood.
Anton decides to shoot him a few times, but he escapes after blowing smoke from a cigarette devices, and he gets away in a Falcon, licence plate 423XFW.
