Player notes
At Shady Belle, Sadie Adler presses Arthur Morgan about taking her on a raid. Dutch van der Linde calls Arthur over to discuss a trolley robbery in Saint Denis, based on a lead from Angelo Bronte. Dutch considers Micah Bell for the job, while Arthur proposes Lenny Summers instead and says Micah is too reckless. Their argument ends when a riderless-looking horse enters camp carrying Kieran Duffy's mutilated body, his severed head placed in his hands.
O'Driscolls open fire from the trees around Shady Belle. Arthur shoots back from the balcony before Dutch orders him to the front entrance, where John Marston and the others hold off the assault. The gang members unable to fight take cover inside as the attackers close in. Forced back into the manor, Arthur helps block the door with a cabinet. Dutch places Arthur, John and Charles Smith at defensive positions while the gunfire continues around the house.
A scream from outside identifies Sadie as still missing. Arthur climbs out through a window and finds her at the rear of the mansion, having killed O'Driscolls with her knife. He fights beside Sadie as she returns to the others, and the gang drives off the surviving attackers. Dutch sends Charles, Reverend Swanson and Pearson to bury Kieran, while Arthur and John clear the bodies from Shady Belle. Arthur later records Kieran's death in his journal.

Trivia
- โThis title is possibly a reference to the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, which appear in the Book of Revelation Chapter 6, and to the Four Horses of the Apocalypse that appear in Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare.
- โDepending on Arthur's honor, he will say something different at the end of the mission.
- โIf Arthur's honor is high, he will comment on not being able to save Kieran's life and how brave Sadie was during the gunfight, believing her to be driven by love.
- โIf Arthur's honor is low, he will describe that Kieran was beheaded and the O'Driscolls tried to kill the gang, while expressing his discomfort about the swamps.
- โMicah Bell, Lenny Summers, Bill Williamson, Javier Escuella, Tilly Jackson, Josiah Trelawny and Uncle do not appear in this mission, despite it taking place at the hideout. No explanation is ever given for their absence.
- โAll of the other members not helping to fight the O'Driscoll gang at the front of the house can be found hiding in the room across from Arthur's, with the exceptions of the above, Orville Swanson and Karen Jones. Swanson hides in Hosea's room, while Karen is shooting from the balcony at the back.
- โIf the player neglects to leave the balcony and head downstairs, Dutch will push Arthur through the door, urging him to get going.
- โJohn is shown to be using multiple weapons in this mission. When the player joins him in the fight outside, he is using his custom Cattleman Revolver. Then, after the player blocks the doors to the house, John is holding a Carbine Repeater, despite not having one slung over his shoulder earlier. Lastly, during the cutscene at the end, he is carrying a Bolt Action Rifle.
- โNear the end of the mission, before the player and Sadie meet up with Charles, he can be seen leaping through the side door of the house and sending an O'Driscoll to the ground, before violently slashing him to death with a machete.
- โAn O'Driscoll can be heard reminding Arthur about his capture by sarcastically asking about his shoulder.
- โWhen Arthur joins Sadie outside at the back of the house, it is possible to set her on fire with Fire Bottles. Eerily, she has unique voice lines for screaming in agony.
