Summary of Receipt
224's epic disinformation campaign (C-SAL04) works really well. Because of that plan, everyone was on high alert guarding the...bathrooms, apparently, as well as Crow himself. Giving the Triple Threat easy access to their information, their magical artifacts (a necklace), and their money. In any case, this is what they got. Crow - full name Al Crow - has been visiting the Otherside to meet Lucifer, Beelzebub and Mammon. He's got Mrs. Weekend working for him, plus two unknown higher-ups, along with two of 'Mr. Sanderson' as bodyguards. No mention of Pleasant, or any solid evidence incriminating Astoria 23. Lastly, Al Crow seems to have Second Vision.

CAFE AND DINER RECEIPT FROM 10/17/17 MANAGER 224 RECEIPT: SALVATION05 STATUS: OPEN
"Would I rather be feared or loved? Easy. Both. I want people to be afraid of how much they love me."
Well, THAT was a smashing success, I'd say. Like, seriously, up your game Mr. Al Crow.
So allow me to recap what really went down today. The basic gist of it is:
1. Make an easy-breezy password that Jedidiah peeps could easily, EASILY, break into. I mean, obviously, after the whole sending a boogieman to kill us thing, it's pretty obvious they're watching us.
2. Give them just a load of fake nonsense about a big infiltration plan to avert their resources and maybe bring the "best boy" into town.
3. ???
4. Profit. And oh, did we profit, my CaD buddies.
So at around 10:00 AM, for some reason, everyone was, like, really on alert? That was strange. Most of them rushed off to the bathrooms, which must've been something they *! Those who weren't ocupada en la baño were protecting the visiting CEO of the fast-food chain. How special that he would visit today! Between the bathrooms and the over-protected CEO, they kinda left the registers unattended. Whoops. So we helped ourselves to a small tithing of around a few thousand fun-bucks. Like * always says, it's not stealing if it's from a cult. Besides, we needed this cash on hand because it tracks back to some of our other friends. Allegedly. But we didn't just come here to rob indiscriminately, of course. Although that part was fun. We took a few interesting bits and bobs and pancakes. Oh, yes, we got pancakes. However, we shouldn't eat them all at once. Wouldn't want to prematurely shoot our wad, so to speak. Oh! And we took a rather interesting piece of jewelry from the best boy's personal stash. I'm guessing there's one kept at each temple. Not sure what it, uh, does yet. But it looks edgy, magical, and I'm sure whatever it does do, it'll just be the coolest thing ever. Also, why was no one guarding the back office? You know, where they keep all of their files?!?!? UH??? GUYS??? THAT'S WHAT WE ARE AFTER?!?!? What did they think we came here to do?? We nabbed some interesting stuff, and once it's cleared by the big boss lady, we'll add it to an official receipt. But a little taste of what we've learned.
"Crow" has a full name. It's Al Crow. Could be related to, you know, historically famous occultist. It could be a coincidence.
Al Crow has been making trips up North.
Mrs. Weekend is working for Al Crow and is looking to expand her workdays.
Al Crow seems to have two other high-level employees. Couldn't get their names though.
This was interesting... It seems like Al Crow has been out to lunch with some big names. Lucy, Fly, and Maeve.
Best Boy Al has some sort of quartzy brain.
Mrs. Pleasant was not mentioned ANYWHERE. So... maybe she really isn't connected to all of this?
Nothing solid connecting the Temple to A23. Yet.
They have two Mr. Sanderson's in their employe and acting as bodyguards to Al Crow. Very interesting.
And that's pretty much all the spicy details I can say here without having to bump up the clearance. All in all? A fantastic raid. Unless... we were double played? Eh, if that's the case, we should probably just keep this jewelry in a safe for the time being. I'll do some looking into it once things settle down.
With all of our undying love!
Triple Threat
