#he would glare at every person who paid 200 bucks to see someone screaming on stage

Random Hitman question: 47 has gotten the contract to assassinate someone at the opera, let's say a corrupt politician in the audience. Would he

A) knock out an usher/worker, dress in his uniform, poison the target's champagne in the intermission?

B) infiltrate backstage, climb the rafters and shoot with a silenced pistol from up there.

C) knock out a singer, walk right on stage and somehow perform the deed from there (think Wilhelm Tell, but the crossbow is very real)

D) steal someone's ticket, sit behind the target and quietly stab them/poison them?

E) another way.

Also for your consideration: Diana dressed to the nines in a private booth, giving mission support with an opera glass, Olivia back at the safehouse with her computer providing additional support and Lucas handling getaway through the catacombs like some phantom of the opera knock off in cargo pants and a permanent scowl at the superfluous decadence

Hahaha, I love all of it!!!

(I don't want to go nagging on IOI's Twitter, but new maps would be so cool - playing in an opera maaan, how cool would that be)

Hard to say how 47 would approach it! Probably all options would be kinda his thing. From the silent assassin's point of view, B would not be a good option (gun wounds? doesn't sound like a convincible accident).

I think C, as cool as it is, would also be difficult to pull off without fleeing the stage and piggybacking Diana out of the opera.

D could work under certain circumstances, but it would have to be very dark. What if the middle-aged woman next to 47 looks at him with raised eyebrows and then shouts "HEY, YOU"? (I hate those NPC btw, whenever they see me doing my illegal shit they come at me like HEY YOU)

I think A would really be the best option. If he wants to go for silent assassin that is

If 47 craves chaos, he would certainly place a ducky on his seat. Or drop a chandelier. Perhaps pretending to be Helmut Kruger and get the politician backstage in a private room after the show? 👀

In any case, Diana has fun watching and is amused by Lucas' pointed remarks from the catacombs (knock off phantom of the opera in cargo pants 😂)

I can well imagine Olivia as a waitress, standing at the cloakroom and putting a GPS device in the politician's pocket. Or bringing the poisoned champagne with a big smile. Lucas is adamantly against Olivia being in the middle of a mission, but she's an adult, she can do what she wants. And 47 is happy that he has a helping hand. Because someone didn't want to put on a suit to help out at the opera house.

But which option would you prefer??
