Notas del jugador
John encuentra a Uncle dormido bajo un árbol en Beecher's Hope y le exige que ayude en el rancho. Uncle sostiene que el terreno sirve para pastar y le recuerda que necesitarán un granero para tener ganado. Van al aserradero de Albert Cakes, donde John escoge un granero prefabricado, y después al banco. Ansel Atherton le niega otro préstamo a John, aunque le concede tiempo para saldar sus deudas. Afuera, Sadie Adler le ofrece un peligroso trabajo de cazarrecompensas.
Sadie lleva a John a Painted Sky, en Scarlett Meadows, tras recibir noticias de que Ramón Cortez, miembro de la banda Del Lobo, se oculta allí. Al llegar, se separan. Sadie entra en la casa y libera a Wróbel, atado a una silla, mientras John registra el granero. Cortez ataca a John, pero John logra reducirlo. Sadie llega y deja inconsciente al fugitivo. Suben a Cortez a un caballo y parten hacia Rhodes mientras él intenta sobornarlos para quedar libre.
En la oficina del sheriff de Rhodes, el sheriff Thomas recibe a Cortez y lo encierra, con la intención de enviarlo a Saint Denis para que sea ejecutado. Thomas pide a John y Sadie que se queden hasta que lleguen sus ayudantes. A la mañana siguiente, los Del Lobos rodean la oficina y exigen la liberación de Cortez. John, Sadie y Thomas expulsan a la banda del pueblo, pero una explosión abre un boquete en la celda y Cortez escapa. Thomas no puede pagar la recompensa sin recuperarlo, así que Sadie negocia una suma mayor y sale con John tras él.
John y Sadie encuentran a la banda cerca de un viejo molino de agua. Desde arriba, John cubre a Sadie mientras ella se acerca al campamento, y luego baja para combatir a su lado. Cortez intenta huir en un bote de remos, pero John lo obliga a volver a la orilla y lo ata. Derrotan a los Del Lobos que acuden a rescatarlo y devuelven a Cortez a Rhodes. El sheriff Thomas lo mete en un carro de prisioneros con destino a Saint Denis. John pide a Sadie que mande su parte al banco y regresa a Beecher's Hope, donde el nuevo granero ya está construido.
Curiosidades
- ◆Before the mission starts, John can awake Uncle by firing a bullet next to him. This will cause him to awake and lock the mission for a short while.
- ◆Even if John already caught all the free roam bounties who are to be delivered at the Rhodes jail (Mark Johnson, etc.), his lines of dialogue will still read as if he had never been back to Rhodes since the epilogue started. He will also repeat the same lines of dialogue of the previous mission regarding him "doing some bounty hunting of his own" to Sadie, as if it were the first time she was told that.
- ◆Also, any bounty targets previously apprehended who may be awaiting the gallows in the Rhodes jail will disappear after this mission and their execution will never be played.
- ◆If John or Arthur has killed Flaco Hernández before this mission, John will reply to Sadie suggesting he has met Sheriff Freeman of Tumbleweed, even if the player has never ventured into New Austin or Tumbleweed.
- ◆This is likely an oversight tied to events when the player first meets the Del Lobo Gang as a part of "The Noblest of Men, and a Woman" Stranger Mission.
- ◆John can put Ramón Cortez on either Sadie's horse or his own, since the mission objective never specifies which horse to place him on.
- ◆If John ignores Sadie's instruction to check the barn at first, he can follow Sadie to find Wróbel tied to a chair, saying that Cortez is in the barn. Sadie will also comment on this.
- ◆After Cortez's escape from the jail, if incendiary buckshot is used on the Del Lobo gang members, John will become wanted by the law and the mission will automatically fail.
- ◆If Esteban Cortez is captured before completing this mission, and during the ride to Painted Sky, John will mention to Sadie that he met Sheriff Freeman and postulates that Esteban and Ramón are related, which Sadie confirms saying that they are brothers.
- ◆This mission is similar to the Red Dead Redemption mission Spare the Rod, Spoil the Bandit as in both missions, John checks a barn and a hostage(s) is saved from the main house.
- ◆If the player kills Ramón Cortez when he is rowing his boat to flee, Sadie will react and get mad at the player.
- ◆If the player takes a hat off one of the Del Lobos after the shootout at Rhodes, Sadie will comment that John has fallen on hard times that he needs to steal hats.
- ◆For this mission only, one of the graves at Rhodes Church has a hole that drops into the void below the map.
- ◆When John returns home to see the newly-built barn, a version of 'Dies Irae' plays. 'Dies Irae' is a musical representation of death, which alludes to John's death in The Last Enemy That Shall Be Destroyed.
- ◆During the mission, John says he thinks Mexico is a tough place. Sadie retorts that it's a very tough place for him. This is ironic because four years later, John will be a major factor in ending the civil war in Mexico.
