Got a couple of six packs after getting fired, stormed off to sit by the tiny pool (that he had been planning to expand once he made enough money) and then decided that he'd take a swim.

He'd just been fired from his job (after only 5 months!) due to having missed work once too often. Brandi suddenly came up pregnant quickly after Beau's birth, and Skip was mulling over the problems attached to having a new baby, a toddler, and a teen all at the same time. Oh, and Consort Capp is now a fugitive vampire using the trailer as a hide-out, which is what actually inspired this backstory for me! They're not entirely heartless, after all. This fits with the memories in the clean hoods I use (the Capp in charge left before he died, so they don't have the memory, and they don't consider assisting in the the execution of a traitor to be "meeting him") and explains how Dustin got his job, which is working for the Capps in my megahood (or was, since he was fired for failing school!). His body was found by the paper-delivery kid early next morning, and his death was brushed under the carpet as an "accident".

Then, when they'd unscrewed it, a muscular Capp flunky picked it up and wacked him over the head with it, knocking him unconscious and allowing them to watch him drown they took the ladder just to cause more confusion on the part of the local police, and it worked.

Maybe he was taking a late-night dip after planting Brandi's bushes out front, reached for the ladder, and found himself looking at a Capp pointing a gun at him.and he begged for his life as the Capp (Consort? Regan? Tybalt?) coldly told him how very silly he was to try to double-cross them, and how very lucky he'd be if they didn't kill his family as well.while all the while, the ladder was being unscrewed from the side of the pool by the Capp's flunkies. However, in my (semi-realistic) megahood, I've slowly gotten the idea that Skip was working for the Capp mob, and. Well, my entirely personal take on it for my current game: I started out with not the slightest idea, since nobody in town ever seemed to have a reason to kill him.
