Synopsis
The Contract opens with Saxton Hale enjoying his lunch of a Giraffe leg and Kakapo eggs, when his butler Bidwell informs him that Miss Pauling is here for a meeting. As Hale informs Bidwell to throw her out, Miss Pauling explains that she has too much of the same weapons, and requests for new weapons as she cannot keep giving the same reward over and over. Hale dismisses her claims as lies and says all of the weapons he provides are rare, but Miss Pauling proves him wrong by pointing at a chair made out of Force'a'natures. Miss Pauling warns that if she cannot get new guns to motivate her assassins to complete her contracts, then Hale and herself will be the ones on the chopping block.
Despite the threat on his life, Hale still ignores Miss Pauling's request. To explain why, Hale takes Miss Pauling to the 'Mann Co. Elite Suite' meant for commandos, assassins, and the like. After viewing a few of the weapons in the suite, Hale explains that all of them are out of her price range. Asking what she can afford, Hale takes her to a dirty room with two Force'a'natures wielded together.
Later that night, Miss Pauling sneaks into the Elite Suite to steal all the weapons inside. As she is stealing the guns, she receives a phone call from Saxton Hale informing her that he separated the Twin Force'a'nature into being two guns again, and offers them to her. She agrees to the deal as she continues to load up the stolen luxury weapons. As Hale explains how she got screwed over in their deal, the comic closes with her leaving an IOU on each of the gun displays, walking away with a wheelbarrow full of all of them.
