that is one of the most impressive setups ive ever heard of in ss13 short of one round where the detective was a traitor with the objective of keeping the clown alive. He kept a close eye on the clown while doing his normal job, investigating the random beatings in the bar, the missing monkey fiasco and potential misappropriation of goods by the quartermaster. the clown kept annoying people and getting the occasional beating until he pissed off the chief of security. someone attempted to frame the clown using a banana peel and an open airlock. the detective ensured that individual.... disappeared. but the chief would not be pleased so the detective did the one thing he could think of, he knocked out the clown and swapped identities. the unconscious 'detective' was found in the emergency shuttle where he was left, as many assumed he was just drunk. the 'clown' was mercilessly beat to death by corrupt cops, all while maintaining his silence. except for one prerecorded message:
they call me cuban pete, im the king of the rumba beat, when i play my maracas i go chick chicky boom, chick chicky boom!
he succumbed and his implant went off, killing the chief and blowing a massive hole in security. the captain called the shuttle. 'detective' Ace Leavey made it off the station. ss13 isn't all bad. sometimes, sometimes you have a friend in the shadows.
