Millionaires' Conspiracy[]
In Case 3: The Stolen Kiss, the day of Maverick D. Rector's romance film premiere "A Naval Advance: No Sub for Love" in the Saveloy, Barnone attended along with the other members of the Seven Dragons and Katrielle Layton, Ernest Greeves, and Emiliana Perfetti. After the film ends abruptly due to the final scene mysteriously cutting off, Barnone orders Katrielle and Emiliana to investigate why. As it turned out, projectionist Seymour Fraymes cut out the scene off the movie reel because his pet myna bird The Major left droppings on it before the projection started, and didn't bother to fix it.
