Yay Shad0!
At the LA cemetery event we'll put a little shrine with Victor's hat and Corazon's box and make appropriate offerings. And if Kerry is still alive (and at our event), we'll ask him to also make appropriate amends (although I think he is trying).

Actually, this is all Don's fault - so I hope the bad guy gets it in the end.

I'm so glad you didn't lose your job. I almost lost my marriage after going for Vic's hat last month instead of hubby's planned date night.

Well, we know he was at least shot a couple times but is still alive enough to be walking, from Lionel's text:

I really believe that if Kerry was dead we would know about it. He is such a major character to the story, there is no way he would die "off-screen".

If you look closely at "Butch and Sundance" you can see that while Clay took out his gun, he never planned on firing it. He has his hand around the handle and all of his fingers are outside of the triggerguard. We know that Clay does know how to shoot because he fired at Kink in the cemetery.

Kerry is not that great a shot either. For eight shots fired by his gun at Spider he only gets three, or possibly four impacts, even though at close range. For Poquito, ten shots produce three impacts (but he is a lot furtehr away, so that's actually pretty good).

From my examination it seems thay by the end of the clip, Kerry has taken out everyone we see surrounding him in the earlier views. Who is he shooting at at the end when he dives across the screen? Also he does not appear to have been hit up to that point, but Lucky says "as he walks, bleeding from many wounds, through the bodies of scattered Mi Casa henchman". There must have been a few more left and he must have been hit (or maybe he's bleeding from his sideways dive onto the pavement with both hands on his gun).

Why did Spider shoot Clay? Don wants the gun and they believe that Clay knows where it is. If he had the gun well-hidden then for Spider to kill him would be a big mistake. Kerry has now ensured that she won't be punished by Don for it though.

Simon is the "ace" for our side in that I have seen no evidence that Don knows about him. Simon is likely as tough as Kerry, and is certainly a more careful planner.

[edit] We're also running low on honest cops. Could Philip Kim make a reappearance?

First, I think the gun that Maurice gave to Phil Kim was a Desert Eagle, which would be a handgun not a machinegun.
Now I am equally as puzzled at Clay's death as you are. The only thing I can think of is that they want to give us a chance to talk to the Preacher at a poker table.
So about Kerry. Lucky said it himself, this story is a Western. Kerry is our modern day Colton White. He might have done some questionable things in the past, but he just put his life on the line to help someone he barely knew. That lead up to a shootout with the bad guys. Now it seems Kerry is going to have a confrontation with the villain of the story, the one who has been using him all along, Don McPherson. I can't tell you if he will survive or not, but it seems like he is this story's (not so) White Knight. His sword is The Gun. Although that is just my spec, and I don't mean it to take away from your lovely spec in any way rose.
Let me just finish up by mentioning this. This story has just started to remind me of the movie Crash. All the characters you thought were good at first become evil, and all the evil characters are starting to become good. Well, maybe not all, but you get my point.

@Abraxas
Your post makes it look like I said that. I didn't, but I will answer for you.
It isn't hidden in the flash video. It is the main focus of the flash video. Grouard tracked down the Sioux, but found that snowfalling fell ill and she later died. They buried her, even though he thought she would disagree with it. And to drive the point home on maryalicechamber's profile her status is "offline". There is more in the flash video after the snow if maybe you never watched past that.
