Story
Bars was among the Deadlock outlaws who partook in the heist of a military transport train at Route 66. The train was derailed, but they were confronted by former Deadlock member Jesse McCree. He told the gang that they could take the spoils except for that of a single crate - a proposal that Elizabeth Ashe rejected, wanting the whole haul for herself. A standoff developed, followed by the eruption of a gunfight. Bars was shot twice by McCree, incapacitating her for the remainder of the skirmish. In the aftermath of the event, she was loaded onto a hover dolly with the rest of the gang by McCree, and he sent them off down the road.[1]
