Notas do jogador
John Marston encontra Sam Odessa ao norte de The Scratching Post, sentado no deserto com uma harmônica. Sam conta que segue para oeste, rumo à California, para concluir uma jornada familiar iniciada perto do Mar Negro três gerações antes. John o alerta sobre as gangues e os foras da lei da região, mas Sam diz que seu cavalo ficou manco e resolve procurar uma diligência. Ele parte alegremente pelo deserto.
Mais tarde, John encontra Sam nos arredores de Cueva Seca. Confuso e ainda distante da California, Sam tomou o rumo errado. John tenta indicar o caminho para oeste e sugere que ele procure ajuda, mas Sam se perde em histórias sobre cavalos incomuns antes de seguir sozinho pela estrada. No encontro seguinte, em uma ravina ao norte de Tumbleweed, suas roupas estão rasgadas e seu estado mental piorou.
Sam continua afirmando que chegará à California. John se oferece para levá-lo à cidade, mas Sam saca a arma e obriga John a se afastar. Ele desaparece mais uma vez no deserto. Ao sul de Tumbleweed, John finalmente o encontra morto à beira da estrada, queimado pelo sol enquanto um abutre se alimenta de seu corpo.
John revira o corpo de Sam e encontra uma carta para a esposa dele. Nela, Sam lamenta ter abandonado a família para perseguir um sonho que já não compreende e admite que o deserto o deixou perdido. John leva a carta até Armadillo e a posta para a esposa de Sam.
Curiosidades
- ◆The appearances are separated by one to two days in-game time. If more than three days pass without the mission becoming active, save your game and load it again. The locations should appear as a purple circle on your map, which will turn to the "?" symbol as you enter them.
- ◆On the second encounter with him, wolves may attack just before the player speaks to him. If shot at, the gunshots will scare Sam and he will run away.
- ◆If Sam should die or if the player's gun is pointed at Sam, you will fail the current part of the mission.
- ◆This Stranger mission may be a sardonic reference to the fact that the entirety of the real-life state of California is not featured in Red Dead Redemption, despite Gaptooth Ridge being inspired by Southern California and Western Arizona, and Tall Trees heavily resembling Northern California. Marston himself cannot swim past the Sea of Coronado, and the mountains surrounding New Austin are impassable, essentially making Sam's journey futile from a gameplay perspective.
- ◆Shooting the vulture that is feasting on Sam's body is an easy way to get a kill towards the Unnatural Selection achievement/trophy. However, the player can't pick up the vulture feathers until after they have examined Sam's body.
- ◆Several of Sam's lines are references to the They Might Be Giants song "No One Knows My Plan". Examples include "I was careless, I can see that now" and "Why the dancing, why the shouting?".
- ◆When approaching Sam at the first encounter, Sam may be playing "Bury Me Not on the Lone Prairie" on his harmonica. This song is heard again after John is killed in the mission "The Last Enemy That Shall Be Destroyed."
- ◆There is sometimes a random occurrence around where Sam's dead body is, usually a Damsel in Distress. This means that the vulture will probably not be on the body but the body will still be accessible once the problem is dealt with.
- ◆When you complete a part in the task after the game autosaves you can reload the autosave and the mission will become active without having to wait two to three days.
- ◆If you follow Sam after the second encounter he will walk to the outskirts of Rathskeller Fork and stop there.
- ◆Unlike John, Jack doesn't seem to remember Sam during the third encounter.
- ◆During the second encounter, Sam makes a reference to Clever Hans, a German horse that was believed to be able to do arithmetic.
