Story: "Everything for a profit!" is the motto that Madeline Bourgeois has lived by for most of her life. It was one of many things that her grandfather, Édouard Bourgeois, would teach her before he passed away. Maddie was very close to her grandfather. Closer to him than she ever was with her own mom & dad. It was her grandfather who would buy Maddie her Cajun Fiddle, and teach her to play it. It was her grandfather with whom she would sing with. It was her grandfather from whom she learned how to cook from. And it was her grandfather who would teach her how to pick pockets.
One day, when she was 11 years old, she was rummaging through her grandfather's attic. While looking through a chest, she various expensive looking jewels and other assorted items. Maddie asked her grandfather about this, and he confided in her that he was once a crook. "The Mardi Gras Gangster," he called himself. Maddie listened to him as he told her how he supported his family more through the items he stole than from his music, and that she was the first family member she ever told this to. At the end, he told her something that she would never forget.
"Everything for a profit, Maddie. Remember that. Money is survival. Survival is life. If you have enough of it, every day can be Mardi Gras!"
From that moment on, Maddie wanted to learn everything her grandfather had to teach her. She learned how to pick pockets with ease, how to intimidate others, how to use people without them even knowing it, how to launder money, how to blend in with a crowd and avoid detection, and how to avoid being noticed all together. Édouard explained that the reason he called himself the Mardi Gras Gangster was both because of his story to Maddie and because Mardi Gras was the best day for thievery. When he finally passed away, Édouard Bourgeois knew that his legacy would live on in her granddaughter.
