- Stopwatch -
In his younger years in a different city, Tony Rizzo learned the value of time in a robbery. In, out, gone before anyone could stop them. Don't get greedy, don't overstay. He brought with him this knowledge to the streets of Los Santos, and to his family, The Rooks.
One of the few things he brought with him when he moved out west was a watch his father gave him. Gold plated, with a brown leather strap. Built in was a stopwatch mode that made it all too easy to keep track of his in point, and his out point.
To celebrate some recent promotions, a crew was put together to make some serious cash.
A simple stickup, some stores out in the sticks. No casing necessary. For any criminal, this is just a regular day, where they run the risk of getting caught. But for a Rook, it isn't. Because being professional means having a plan, and being a professional means constantly trying to outdo yourself.
He started the night by timing how fast him and the crew could empty the store.
6:08.72. Not bad. But could be better.
6:06.30. Getting there. Next stop, Sandy Shores.
6:15.20. Almost had some "guests" that could've been a problem, but they drove away quickly.
6:05.90. Excellent. In and out of the store in under 7 minutes every time.
The final pull ended up around $25,000 for each of them. The crew were all happy for their fantastic work that night, but even happier about the large sum of money sitting comfortably in their pockets. With the approach of morning, they set out to celebrate over breakfast.
