They knew he was too tough to take on if he saw the attack coming, so they posed as well-wishers and potential allies, did up really good fake backgounds, and even had one of the PCs go undercover for a while to set it up. The plan was to get in the good books with him without displaying their powers, and then attack him with them after they had put him at ease, when he thought they were unarmed.They did all that well enough, did some good roleplaying and were almost at the point where they were ready to take him down, after a week of hanging out with him and even doing a minor mission for him without using their powers. One player however had grown to loathe the drug baron's pet--a monkey he let have the run of the house, who was always up to some mischief at the expense of the PCs. The drug baron adored his pet, but this guy really hated it. So just before they were planning to attack him, this one PC heads off to find the monkey and kill it, thinking that the guy won't find out in the short time before the party launches the surprise attack on him.So anyway, I state to everyone that the guy is relaxing out by the pool, and his pet monkey is hanging around in his favorite room, wich is right next to the pool area. The PC with a grudge heads off to that 'favorite room', completly forgetting what it is, since i've described it several times and was at that very moment referring to it as the 'arboritum'. When he gets there I tell him that he sees the monkey, playing in the humidity amongst the plants... he still doesn't get it. He asks if the drug baron is still out by the pool, and I say yes, you can see him sitting there on a deck chair. . . he still doesn't get it. So while the others are getting ready in one of the upstairs rooms ovelooking the pool area, he chases the monkey around the 'room' and finally grabs it, at wich point he starts swinging the poor thing around by its tail, knocking over plants and so on as he does. I mention to him that if he swings it around too hard he might accidentally break one of the walls, but he doesn't catch on at all, and just says that he'll stay in the middle of the room. The other PCs in the upstairs room with a view of the pool area, can of course SEE their fellow PC, as he capers about inside the drug baron's GREENHOUSE, wich has SEE THROUGH GLASS WALLS. They have just enough time to wince and slap themself on the forehead before the drug baron hears a thump from inside his greenhouse, turns to look at it, and sees one of the PCs inside, gleefully flinging his beloved monkey about the place. That's when it got ugly.</blockquote>
