A member of [[GangBangers The Vipers]] is found [[TitleDrop burned to the bone]] in a parking lot. Now it's up to you to find his killer, who may be another Viper, a Skull, or just a random citizen.

!!Tropes:
*BerserkButton: For Joe, the sole mention of [[GangBangers The Vipers]] is enough to make him lose control. Which is why he killed Chad, a member, when he came looking for a job on his store.
-->'''Joe:''' Every day the Vipers come in here and destroy my shop. EVERY DAY!
-->And then this low-life Viper comes in all smiles asking for a job! At first I was too shocked to do anything...
-->... But then my legs started moving again. Then my arms. And before I knew it, [[GasolineDousing I had poured gasoline all over him.]]
-->[[ManOnFire And then I flicked my cigarette at him and WOOSH!]]
*BigBrotherInstinct: Troy really loves his sister, to the point he allowed her to date Chad despite being a Viper.
*CopHater: Big Bady openly admits being one, which is why he quit his dream of being a detective.
*FatIdiot: {{Subverted}}. Despite his dope appearance and being member of a gang, Big Baby is shown to be quite aware of his surroundings.
-->'''Big Baby:''' I may be fat but I ain't crazy, yo.
*FatSlob: Big Baby has such a poor hygiene he's full of dandruff.
*ForeignLanguageTirade: Cordero insults Joe in Spanish after he's revealed to be the killer.
*GasolineDousing: Joe threw gasoline at Chad before igniting him with his cigarette.
*GiftedlyBad: The victim wrote poetry. Let's just say... he wasn't very good at it.
-->'''Jones:''' "Skulls are Red, Vipers are Blue, gang war sucks, but I love you so much"... [[PunctuatedForEmphasis What. The. Hell is THAT?]]
*{{Gonk}}: Big Baby, according to Rose.
-->'''Jones:''' You know where we could find him?
-->'''Rose:''' It shouldn't be too hard. Look for the ugliest, fattest Viper and that'll be him.
*LeaningOnTheFourthWall: When recalling a previous case, Jones literally refers to it by its game name.
-->'''Jones:''' Do you remember Joe? He was a suspect in "[[Recap/CriminalCaseGrimsboroughCase02CorpseInAGarden Corpse in a Garden]]"... one of your very first cases!
*ManOnFire: How the victim was killed: [[GasolineDousing douse with gasoline]] then set ablaze with a cigarette.
-->'''Jones:''' Ugh, look at this corpse! I don't think we'll be eating BBQ any time soon!
*MyGodYouAreSerious: When Nathan informs you that Chad's killer has a dandruff problem.
-->'''Jones:''' Ha ha ha!
-->Oh wait... you're actually serious? Huh.
*QuicklyDemotedLeader: Chief King threatens you and Jones with working under ''[[BadCopIncompetentCop Ramirez]]'' if you fail to solve the case. Jones isn't amused.
*RedHerring: Despite the suspect list including a member of the victim's rival gang and the leader of The Vipers —the gang the victim was trying to desert—, the killer ends up being someone totally unrelated to either The Skulls or The Vipers.
-->''Jones:'' I guess I got a bit too carried away with the lovers' story to realize the killing had nothing to do with the gangs.
*ShoutOut:
** Chad Whickman, the victim, died after being set on fire. Both his surname and the manner of his death bring ''Film/TheWickerMan1973'' to mind.
** Big Baby resembles rapper Fat Joe.
**Jones compares Chad and Rose's love story to Theatre/RomeoAndJuliet.
*SmokingIsNotCool: So uncool, one of the killer's traits is that he smokes.
*TemptingFate: After finding out about the "meeting" between Marconi and Cordero...
-->'''Jones:''' The situation between the Italian mafia and the Vipers is worse than we thought...
-->'''Jones:''' [[Recap/CriminalCaseGrimsboroughCase11SIntoTheVipersNest I wouldn't be surprised if something serious were to happen very soon...]] We'd better be ready for it!
*TookALevelInJerkass: In his previous appearance, Joe was slightly abrasive and pessimistic, but still polite. Here? He's actively rude towards you and Jones, and that's before he's revealed to be the one who killed Chad.
*ThickerThanWater: Troy's explanation for why he wouldn't kill Chad despite him being a member of his rival gang: he was [[BigBrotherInstinct his sister's boyfriend.]]
-->'''Troy:''' Naw, man. You've got it all wrong. I'd never hurt my lil' sista like that. Family before honor, that's the Skulls way.
*UnseenNoMore: After only being mentioned multiple times during the entire district, Salvador Cordero finally appears as a suspect.
