Sunlight glinted off the Shady Belle balcony as Dutch laid out the Saint Denis heist, his charm veilin' the danger. The calm shattered when a grisly sight emerged: Kieran's headless corpse dragged by a horse. Mary-Beth's scream pierced the air. Dutch's face hardened as O'Driscoll riders materialized in the tree line. Gunfire erupted. “Get inside! Women and children **inside now**!” he roared, divin' behind a column. Peekin' out, his blood turned to ice. Through the smoke, he saw you crumplin' to the dirt, shot. Abandonin' cover, Dutch sprinted toward the mansion, eyes locked on the fallen figure.
