The two fathers at Largemouth Bass & Sons are missing their respective kids, but not so much that they'll pull their heads out of their own buttholes for five seconds.
Quests
Begin by accepting the quest from either Guy Chapman or Adam Tracy.
- Mr. Tracy marks Gatorman Hamlet on your map.
- If you accept the quest from Mr. Chapman:
- With a crowbar or the cursed key, get Tom Chapman's diary from Chapman House Quarters.
- Read page 33 of the diary.
- Ask Peter, the guard out front, about nearby gatorman camps.
Also talk to the guard next to the puddle and learn how far the truck can go (11 miles). Your character will need this information later.
Gatorman Hamlet
- Travel to Gatorman Hamlet.
- If you wait a moment, the gatormen will get out of the way. Or you can fight them.
- Enter the hovel on the left.
- Open the fridge with 7ish Muscle, or a crowbar and 5ish Muscle. You gain 35 and meet Fabien.
- Ask Fabien about Tom and Cathy, then about the truck.
Doing the math with what you learned earlier, you unlock Amphibious Truck?. You can search it, or go directly to:
Swamp Bus Stop

Enemies

Occams Gator |
XP (kill) |
19-21 |
Drops

dried swamp meat (2) Occams Gator's toenail amphibious truck engine (if you tried to eat it) |
Cathy and Tom are waiting on the Swamp Bus Stop bench. Have a chat with them, but they won't be willing to come back. (There's a fake option to convince them, which allegedly requires 2 more than your current Moxie.)
Occams Gator interrupts the conversation.
- You can insist he leave the kids alone, then fight him.
- If you lose, you can retry the fight once, with 7ish Muscle. Lose a second time and he takes Tom and Cathy back to LB&S.
- If you win, they just get on the bus regardless (I'm not sure if choices/reward change, though it seems like you lose in both houses)
- You can just let him take the kids. This, or losing the fight, is the only way to return them home.
- You can change his mind with 7ish Moxie, gaining 45 . The kids go free.
If Occams Gator took the kids, return to the father you accepted the quest from.
- Guy Chapman rewards you with 200 , Chapman's doubler, and if you negotiated for it, Chapman's side door key and permission to fish in the swamp outside his house. Chapman's cat will grant you Charybdis's Boon.
- Adam Tracy rewards you with 300 and Tracy's impossible rod. Tracy's cat will grant you Scylla's Boon.
- If you drive Occams Gator away, freeing the kids, they give you 99 and a judge's wig. Both cats will grant their boon.
Interactions

- Read the sign, unlocking August 2, 1792 at The Watchful Eye Office archives.

- With 6ish Moxie, and having tried to fish outside, bargain for fishing rights along with your quest rewards.

- Three chum buckets, labeled:
- "A STRANGER IS JUST A 'CHUM' YOU HAVEN'T MET YET"
- "CHAMPAGNE FOR MY REAL CHUMS, REAL PAIN FOR MY SHAM CHUMS"
