The next day, Packie and Kate wait at a hospital waiting room, as Dash's wounds were still being tended to from the funeral battle yesterday evening, now in their normal outfits. Kate tends to wear a light brown hoodie and blue jeans. Packie also wears blue jeans, and a green sweater with rolled up sleeves, an outfit he wears almost every day. Or at least for most of the days we see him.
"I knew that cop girl was gonna be a problem." Packie groaned, referring to Jazmine. Kate not replying, still a bit shaken from Jazmine being Kate's first time killing someone.
"Think she'll pull through?" Kate asked, trying to change the subject a bit.
"I sure hope so, cause I'll miss our adventures." Packie said.
In a flashback, Dash and Packie stumble out of the bar, both drunk.
Packie (drunk): Okay, Dash, Dash, You're drunk. Gimme your keys.
Dash, also drunk, hands them over.
Packie: And -And I'm drunk, so I'll give you my keys. (does so) Okay, now we're both good to drive home.
[cut to packie having drunkenly crashed his car into Dash's. And he drunkenly stumbles over to her. Acting like a cop for some reason.
Packie: (drunk) You been drinkin' tonight, miss?
Dash: (drunk): N -No, officer, I just had a glass of dinner with my wine.
Packie: (drunk) Okay, I'munna need ya to step out of the car and walk a straight line, please. (Dash opens the car door and drops to the ground, passed out).. Alright looks good, now you be safe, ma'am, there's a lotta crazies out there tonight.
Flashback 2: (reference to HardRocker21's story)
Packie: (holding golden skull, after the two escaped from an Indiana Jones like trap and cave) A-ha! We did it! We got the skull! Victory is ours!
Dash: I don't feel so good..
Packie: (not listening) They say I was mad! But I have it!
Dash: Packie seriously I looked at it and-
Packie: (not listening) WHOO!
Derrick: (cartoonishly smashes himself though driver seat window instead of just rolling it down) I DID 'SO' MANY DRUGS IN HERE!
Packie: WHOO-HOO!
Dertick: ALRIGHT! YEAH!
Dash: ... (shrugs) WHOO!
Enemy gangster: THERE THEY ARE! SHOOT THEM!
Packie: Oh shit, Dash get in! (they both do so and Derrick speeds off).
"Wait, I don't remember that last one." Kate said, cutting them back to the present, still in the waiting room.
"It's... Oh come on, can't you just go along with it for once." Packie groaned, annoyed.
Shortly after Dash finally stumbles out, limping and holding her still sore stomach which was cut pretty deep, and where her bullet wound was basically already healed. Kate runs over and gently hugs her, as does Packie who helps her outside to his car.
"You need to rest up a few days, I'll tell Gerry you won't be available for a few weeks." Packie said, softer toned than usually is.
"Ma and I will look after her." Kate insisted.
A FEW DAYS LATER:
"You ok, kid?" Gerry asked, as Niko visited him from jail.
"Yeah, I'm ok. I'm sorry about your brother" Niko said, ironically meaning he secretly killed him.
"Ah, me and Derrick had quite a few problems, but he was my brother. And it hurts. Poor fucking bastard... He believed in something once, which is better than me... I guess. Ah fuck, I'll miss him." Gerry replied, in a rare moment of sadness.
"How are you, in here?" Niko asked, trying to change the subject for Gerry's sake.
"Fine. Time of my life... God damn time of my life" Gerry said sarcastically.
"What are you in for?" Niko asked.
"Oh, a lot of things. Racketeering, armed robbery... (sees guard pass by) A bunch of shit I never did, cause I was always a well behaved family man who occasionally liked a drink!.. But nothing more, '' Gerry replied.
"Of course. Like us all" Niko commented, a bit sarcastically.
"Yep... Like us all.. But the thing is, (knows the guard is still there) I think I should make some changes in my life.. Stop with the drink.. Put it down.. Stop hanging out with the wrong sort.. Can you help me do that? It's a final chance at redemption?" Gerry asked, not letting the guards know that he's up to anything.
"Look, whatever you want, I will do my best to help." Niko insisted.
"Good.. Give Packie a call. He'll explain what I need guidance with the most... the areas where I have strayed furthest from the path... See ya" Gerry replied, before hanging up and motioning for Niko to leave the room.
Once outside the prison, Niko called up Packie.
"Your brother told me to call you." Niko said.
"Gerry wants you to kidnap old man Ancelotti's daughter. Some fake tanned, dyed haired, guido loving slut by the name of Gracie." Packie said through the phone.
"Very well, so what's the plan?" Niko asked.
"Gracie is selling her car, we need to pose as a buyer, make up whatever story you want, just as long as she buys it.. When you have her, bring her to a place I got on an alleyway off Sacramento... I'll take it from there" Packie replied.
"Sounds like a plan," Niko replied.
"Good man.. Don't let her know that we're kidnapping her near her place though. It's a real mobbed up area and they'll come down on us damn heavy.. Play along with a test drive for a while to get her out of there" Packie explained.
