Shady Real Estate Agent | |
| Brothers Keepers / int_dacdf37f | comment |
Shady Real Estate Agent: Zigzagged. Mr. Dwarfmann is a bit of a cold businessman plowing through old buildings, but his proposed replacement project doesn't sound necessarily bad, everyone else in the area wants to sell to him, and its the monasteries landlords who do the actual attempts to sabotage the monks efforts to stay while Dwarfmann remains oblivious to the whole thing. | |

The Mole: After the Flattery's sabotage them in a way which indicates insider information, the monks worry about this prospect. Only it turns out that there was no spy, just a listening device. | |
