Patrice, an art dealer, was in the midst of a tough period. With no art sales in sight, the chance that her gallery could go out of business was looming ever closer. Desperate to settle her debt with her drug supplier Nate, Patrice offered up a painting in its place. This painting caught the attention of Nate's boss, Gordon, who operates a criminal underworld from a Jewish bakery. Gordon saw the potential there to use Patrice's gallery as a money laundering device since the value of art is highly subjective. Patrice, while clearly uncomfortable with the plan, reluctantly agreed. For the money laundering ruse to work properly, Gordon knew they would need more artwork. To achieve this, he enlisted the help of Reggie, a professional assassin who goes by the alias "The Bagman". What began as a desperate try to save her gallery quickly spiraled out of control. The artwork that Reggie produced brought a strange turn of events and caused quite a stir in the art world. Even though she was feeling the pressure from all sides, Patrice did her best to manage the situation.—Nick Maston
