River City Crush 0-1

Goldfinger Slingers
Don't get too distraught, Goldfinger Slingers! Look, I've been in this industry long enough to know that every once in a while, free points can just miraculously show up out of nowhere. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Okay, okay; asking for an extra 97 points may be a bit on the excessive side.
