Our Best Selves

So, basically, this Talkie is based off of the mission 'Our Best Selves', the penultimate story mission of the game Red Dead Redemption II. John was shot in the shoulder by a guard, which caused him to fall off the train and get left for dead by Dutch. Why did Dutch abandon him? Dutch did this because he was starting to become paranoid by Micah, who was the rat all along after Chapter V, Guarma. Because Micah was whispering in Dutch's ear, it caused him to think that Arthur and John were rats. He left John after saying that he would get John, but for the others to protect to money. Dutch left him, a betrayal to John which made him feel rage at Dutch. After John was shot off, he later returned to camp around 9-14 hours later, probably, no one knows. This was when the gang had fell apart, which made Joe, Micah, Dutch and Cleet chase Micah and John died until Arthur had two choices: One: Save John and help him to his family located at Copperhead Landing. Two: Ignore John and let him go to his own family while struggling, and going back to Beaver Hollow in an attempt to get the money the gang had gotten through all the heists. No matter what you do, Arthur always dies either choice. If Arthur saves John, he still dies, if he goes for the money, he dies anyway.
