"Operation: Mousetrap" is a job for Murray, Sly Cooper and Bentley in "Of Mice and Mechs" of Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time.

Background[]

The Cooper Gang, except for Bentley (who is still upset about Penelope's betrayal), must assault her castle without him.

Synopsis[]

Sly, Murray, Sir Galleth, and Carmelita Fox enter the castle and confront the traitorous Penelope, who then enters a giant armored suit. As Galleth charges at Penelope in an attempt to stop her, she grabs his cane and traps the gang between the drawbridge's gates. Before they slam shut, Carmelita pushes Sly out.

Sly fights Penelope.

The battle then starts and Penelope begins attacking Sly by firing missiles at him, causing the ground to ripple. Sly dodges the ripples by jumping onto the wooden towers throughout the arena. He uses his Archer Costume to fire bombs at the giant robot and remove the armor. After disabling the suit, a piece of the armor falls on Sly's leg and pins him. Penelope takes this moment to try to kill Sly, but Bentley appears in a suit made of the Moat Monster.

A heartbroken Bentley asks why Penelope turned on the Cooper Gang. She explains that it was because of Sly's morals and that they are holding back Bentley's potential, which he can use to make them rich. Bentley tries to reason with Penelope, to which she insists that they fight as Bentley decides to stay loyal to Sly.

The two fight, and after the brawl, which Bentley wins, he frees Sly from the fallen armor, and he apologizes for not helping the gang when they need it. He then opens the gate to free the others and the mission ends.

Recycled Trash[]

Dimitri contacts the Cooper Gang, who informs them of "sandstorms and camel spit", Sly and the gang realize it's his Arabian ancestor Salim Al-Kupar who needed help this time. Turning around, Carmelita this time comes up with the way to get there. Smiling, she holds up an ancient Arabian coin, which is exactly what they need, that she manages to pocket as evidence before she was captured back at the museum. Without hesitation, Carmelita and the Gang head over there, while this is happening, everyone including Carmelita keep an eye and smile at Bentley, for he pulls through when he needs them, having overcome his own inner demons. Bentley is ready to tackle whatever comes the Gang's way with renewed confidence in himself.
