|Willy greets you outside the [[Fish Shop]]. He says he needs your help, and asks you to come inside. Once inside, you see [[Crab]]s run amok, covering the Fish Shop floor. Before you can do anything to help, [[Gus]] enters the Fish Shop and offers to purchase all the crabs, minus a discount for the labor involved. Willy agrees, and Gus gathers the crabs. Afterward, Gus turns to you and says he's going to run a special on [[Crab Cakes]] for the next few days (but not to tell Willy). The cutscene ends with Willy saying goodbye to his "sweet ladies" as they are taken away to be killed and cooked.

Gus will sell an unlimited amount of Crab Cakes at [[The Stardrop Saloon|the Saloon]] for {{price|550}} each starting on the day of the cutscene and for 3 days after. Mayor Lewis will comment that he's smelled crab "all afternoon" the day the event is viewed.
