So he's holed up in Mesa City, huh? I've always wanted to go to that thriving American boomtown.

Synopsis[]

Background[]

Sunset Snake Eyes 2

Young Muggshot watching The Dogfather

As the gang makes the trip to Mesa City, Sly Cooper studied up on the second Fiendish Five member Muggshot, learning that he grew up as the "runt of the litter", always being bullied and picked on. The only friends he looked up to were gangsters found on the big screen, and he knew right away that was what he wanted to be. Determined to earn the respect he wanted, Muggshot spent the rest of his youth working real hard to become a tough-as-nails brute. He got revenge on his former bullies and eventually took control of Mesa City, building a massive casino and forcing all of the citizens to flee town.

Jobs[]

"A Rocky Start"
Sly and the gang arrive in Mesa City and find it odd that it was all of a sudden deserted, but he soon discovered what happened. Sly battles some of Muggshot's goons in order to get into his turf.
"Muggshot's Turf"
Sly enters Muggshot's main base of operations and discovers that the bulldog resided inside the giant fire hydrant located on top of the largest casino.
"Boneyard Casino"
Sly ventures into the Boneyard Casino, one of the few buildings still populated within Mesa City, which was apparently falling apart and filling with water.
"Murray's Big Gamble"
Murray has to make a run for one of the treasure keys, but he needs covering fire. Sly is to use the blasting station in order to protect Murray from Muggshot's goons.
"At the Dog Track"
Murray is challenged to a race by a few of Muggshot's goons, with the big prize being a treasure key. To earn it, Murray has to beat the other racers in three laps.
"Two to Tango"
Sly explores some rooftops and encounters Carmelita Fox, who attempted to arrest him once more.
"Back Alley Heist"
Sly has to explore some back allies to find another treasure key, but he needs to be careful not to fall from the tall buildings.
"Straight to the Top"
The treasure key is placed inside a skylight made of thick glass. Sly is forced to do some serious climbing in order to destroy the glass and retrieve it.
"Last Call"
Finally, Sly finds himself face-to-face with Muggshot. The dastardly bulldog is not too keen on letting Sly take back what is his without a fight. Sly has to finish Muggshot off to reclaim what is his.

Ending[]

Muggshot's section of the Thievius Raccoonus contains an entry for Sly's gun-slinging ancestor, "Tennessee Kid" Cooper, whose specialty was the Rail Move, which is walking and sliding on rails. He perfected that during his long time of thievery in the Old West.

Muggshot Busted 1

Muggshot busted by Carmelita.

With the INTERPOL authorities arriving, getting out of town is tougher for the gang than getting in. Having just missed Sly once again, Carmelita Fox goes ahead and busts Muggshot. This marks the end of Muggshot's gambling empire and the citizens of Mesa City soon return home. Sly and the gang continue to enjoy the rest of their time in North America before returning back home to Paris, ready to tackle their next opponent.
