What punishment should Quick Mike and Davey-Boy recieve?

Davey-Boy didn't really do anything did he? I mean he was partners with the guy who cut up Delilah, but not only was he not responsible, he offered to give her a horse when he didn't have to.

Why did they want him to be killed along with Quick Mike?

Nice! I agree.

"All Games Contain The Concept Of Death"

Agree except he should have ordered them to pay Delilah and Skinny. Davy was willing to do it voluntarily.

I would say my memory is not what it used to be. But I don't remember what my memory used to be.

I agree with you Degree7. Bill created the whole mess. I don’t think he was a villain; however, he did overcompensate with his behavior thereafter trying to neutralize the assassinations from happening. I could tell he realized he messed up when Skinny came to talk to him while he was building his house. Bill’s facial expressions showed me realization was setting in on the severity of the situations.

Hey Chef,

You are completely correct. Davey was not the bad guy here and should not have been harmed.

Best wishes,
Dave Wile

"He even asked Davey to "hold her down" which he did not do."

Yes, he did. Here's a screenshot of Davey standing behind Delilah, holding her arms, while Quick Mike is slashing her with a knife (it's a dark scene so I cranked up the levels to make it easier to see what's going on):

I don't think either one deserved to die, although Quick Mike definitely deserved to be thrown in jail for a pretty good stretch. Possibly a whipping as well.

Davy I'm not sure even deserved that. It was hard to tell in the darkness and confusion, but all he did was hold Delilah for a minute, and I think he only did that because he was loyal to his partner and obeyed him, but once he saw what Quick Mike was doing I could have sworn he said something like, "Jesus Mike don't!" Am I the only one who heard this?

I think Davy actually may have been a victim of his own loyalty to his partner, he didn't speak up for himself when Little Bill was questioning him, because it was probably a loyalty code among people you ride with. But unfortunately it cost him. I actually don't think he even took part in the cutting once he realized what Mike was doing.

that's the whole point of it. it wasnt really about justice. whenever the assassins came to talk the other into doing it, they always make the crime sound worse than it was. they were trying to justify the murder for hire.

Well, today, Quick Mike would be made to stand on a street corner holding a sign that read, "I have a really small dick".

That and he also went "above and beyond" (so to speak) and tried to offer his best horse as compensation for the girl. Of course the other whores were right about the fact a horse is not enough to make up for what was done but they failed to see the fact that nothing he ever did could restore the girl's face. He did that as a token of generosity on behalf of his friend, the most valuable thing he had to give as a gesture, only less than actually giving off all his horses and ending up with nothing. They really should have at least taken the bounty off him after that, considering he had done nothing wrong himself.
