Player notes

At Shady Belle, Charles Smith tells Arthur Morgan and Uncle that he has bought plans for the Bank of Rhodes. The drawings reveal a weak point in one of the building's walls. Charles proposes breaking through it with dynamite and taking the money from the safes inside. Arthur joins Charles and Uncle as they leave camp for Rhodes.

The three ride into Rhodes and approach the bank. A patrolman is guarding the area near the planned entry point, so Arthur quietly deals with him before he can raise an alarm. Arthur then returns to Charles and Uncle, who are waiting nearby with the explosives and the bank plans.

Charles leads Arthur to the weak section of the bank wall. They set the dynamite and blast an opening into the building, giving them access to the safes. Arthur and Charles move inside and empty the safes while Uncle remains involved in the robbery outside the bank.

The explosion brings the Law down on Rhodes, forcing the gang members to flee the town. Arthur, Charles and Uncle escape across Scarlett Meadows in Lemoyne and make their way back to Shady Belle. Once they are clear of pursuit, Uncle tells Charles that he expects the two of them will become good friends.

Trivia

  • โ—†This is the only Companion Activity where the player can get a Gold Medal on completing the list of objectives.
  • โ—†After escaping the law, Uncle will tell Charles that he feels that they will both become good friends one day. This is a foreshadowing of the two of them spending a lot of time together while living with John Marston and helping him build his ranch for Abigail in 1907.
  • โ—†It is recommended to play this mission before "American Fathers II", since Charles will temporarily leave to help Eagle Flies in saving Native children from a reform school after the mission is completed.
