"He is a musician who came recently to America, trying to make some concerts, but luck hasn't smile to him for now".
With that we fast forward about 45 minutes, you've finished your meal and are sipping wine and eating almond pastries (Chita isn't much on nuts ... probably the feline teeth) and the young woman you hacked against during the test comes in with her bodyguard. The woman seems to be heading for the back room without paying the slightest attention to the people in the restaurant, the bodyguard however, notes everyone in turn.
As they pass Setsuna's table the woman stops in her tracks ...
"Ummm ... Setsuna?"

"Tell ya what, you got a card? I have some business to take care of right now but I know some people that know some people ..."
(( You're too far away to actually overhear this conversation Hernando, but you can definitely see them talking and a cards being exchanged. ))

"I'm starting to wonder if he is really only a musician. Maybe it's just a cover to something else?"
"Wouldn't be the first time someone wasn't what they claimed to be." Gremlin comments.
(( Can fast forward a bit more here till Mr Mob Underboss arrives, or we can let Hernando chat with his team some more. Either works. ))
(( As to Setsuna ... have another glass of wine or something ... I have nefarious GM plans. ))

Another 30 minutes or so pass as everyone cools their heels and Mr Mob Underboss (and his bodyguards) arrive.
Unlike the niece he take a moment to stop by your table and ask if your meal was satisfactory and apologize for making you wait.
Then he asks you to allow him a few moments to take care of something before you join him and he enters the back room.
No more then 3-4 minutes later one of his bodyguards signals you to join him.
"I gather you were successful in acquiring the item?"
(( I'm going to let Hernando do most of the talking because unlike Chita, Gremlin, and Mouse he's a player character. ))

Hernando thinks for a moment what he should say: that the mission was very difficult? No, he is pretending to be a pro, better look cool: the less he says, the better.
"Yes sir, the mission was accomplished and we have the package you asked." He turns to Gremlin.

"here it is".
Hernando deliver it to Mr Mob (unless this makes a sign to any of his guards to receive it instead)..

Mr Mob takes the package ... handling it rather more gently then your team has been (it's fragile???) and opens it ...
First the ever popular styrofoam peanuts we all know and love (some things never change) then something in ... three guesses ... yep ... it's bubble wrap!
This he also opens and ...

It's a flower pot?
(( I rather doubt Hernando has a clue what he's seeing here ... but if you think otherwise let me know. ))
