Build-n-Share Challenge #114-115 • Bar None
The intercom buzzes and you hear Rose say, “Your 2:30 is here.” “Thanks, Rose. Send him in.” Before the intercom disconnects you hear a rather rough voice say to Rose, “Thanks, doll!”
Before you have time to react, in walks a rather rough looking character. And yet, Michael Malone, your 2:30 appointment, is nattily dressed in a dark pinstriped suit and is carrying a fedora hat in one hand. Your instincts tell you to be cautious. You motion to him to take a seat.
“Well, Mr. Malone, what can I do for you today?” you say a little too brightly.
“My friends call me Mugsy on account’a my mug ain’t gonna win any beauty contests!” He laughs at his own joke, displaying a toothy grin. You laugh politely, too, and think to yourself, “He’s right about that…”
“Shall we get down to business then, Mr. Malone?” You are trying desperately to get through this interview.
“I said, ‘My friends call me Mugsy!’” This time there is steel in his smile.
“Um, yes…Mugsy.” You force a smile. “I see you’re opening a new bar?”
“Oh ya!” he says enthusiastically. “The boys and me bought a joint in town. You ever hear of the Li’l Corsican Bistro?”
You think to yourself, “There go my plans for a romantic dinner next week!” To the client, you say, “Of course, I know the restaurant very well.”
“We hear youz guys are the best in town, so we want ya to tear down the place and build us a classy bar. We even got a name for it: Bar None. Ya get it? Bar None?”
“Uh, yes, I get it. Very clever!” You laugh feebly.
As you get down to brass tacks about the project, you can’t help but hope there won’t be any brass knuckles in your future. You take very careful notes of what the client requires: lots of dark wood, leather and gold fixtures for the bar area, a game room, a dance floor, an area where Mugsy’s “gal”, Moxxie, can perform with her band, and a secret room or “office” where “the boys” can have their meetings.
“Youz guys can have it done in two weeks?” His statement is more a command than a question.
“Of course!” you say a little too brightly again. As you usher him out, you think to yourself, “I’ve got to have a talk to Rose about screening clients!”
Requirements:
• Build on the Little Corsican Bistro lot in Sunset Valley. Zone it either “Dive Bar”, “Hangout” or “Vistors Allowed” (depending on which expansion packs you have).
• Architecture, landscaping and interior décor should be what you think Mugsy would call “classy” and include dark wood, leather and gold fixtures. Remember, there may be a pair of cement shoes in your future if you get it wrong!
• The building should include a bar (either Late Night style with bartender or regular juice bar), a game room, a dance floor with public sound system (or dance area with stereo system if you don’t have Late Night), a performance area with instruments (or just guitars, if you don’t have Late Night), and an “office” for the “boys” to meet. If you have World Adventures, use a secret door for the office. Otherwise, conceal the entrance some other way.
• Budget: as Mugsy says, “We want this joint to be classy, so ‘the sky’s the limit!’”
Optional Challenge: Create Mugsy and Moxxie Malone and show them enjoying an evening at Bar None.
Good luck!
