Red Dead Redemption 2 helping sheriff Gray as deputies

In Red Dead Redemption 2, Arthur and the gang briefly become "deputies" under Sheriff Gray in Chapter 3, during their time in Rhodes. This is part of Dutch’s plan to exploit the feud between the Braithwaites and Grays. Missions Involving Sheriff Gray: Here are the key missions where Arthur and sometimes Dutch or others work under the guise of deputies: --- 1. "The New South" Arthur helps capture escaped prisoners with Sheriff Gray. This is the first mission where Arthur is deputized. You ride with the sheriff and deputy Archibald MacGregor. 2. "Further Questions of Female Suffrage" Arthur helps Sadie Adler with a supply run that turns into a fight with the Lemoyne Raiders. It loosely connects to the sheriff's work against local gangs. 3. "American Distillation" Arthur and Deputy Archibald investigate a moonshine operation. Leads to raiding a Lemoyne Raider hideout and capturing their stash. 4. "Advertising, the New American Art" Dutch and Arthur pretend to help the Grays while actually undermining them. They deliver moonshine and try to gain the sheriff’s trust. Purpose in the Story: Dutch’s gang uses this lawman role to gain information and weaken both feuding families. It’s part of Dutch’s manipulation tactics, pretending to support one side while planning a bigger con.
