You go Southeast, to your left, and walk into this part of town.

"Wow," Raven says. "The Gangster Museum of America."

"Interesting," you say. "We could go in and see the exhibits, if you want."

"Hmm... No, that's okay. We fight criminals, I don't need to learn about more criminals."

You two move on and find plenty of fast food stops and other restaurants. There isn't much else to see, though, so you end up circling back.

"Maybe we could see what there is," Raven says as you return to the gangster museum.

"Alright," you say.

The two of you go in, pay the price of admission and start your own little tour around the exhibits.

First up is the Owen Vincent Madden gallery, where you sit in a recreation of a living room. You read about how Madden lied about his birthday being on Christmas, just so he wouldn't be the one celebrated. Madden is described as being "sweet, but oh so vicious."

The next gallery has to do with Hot Springs, Arkansas itself. The "Power Brokers" were not one particular group or gang. It was the name of all the gangsters who were into illegal moonshine and gambling in the underground of the early 1900's tourist town that Hot Springs became. In fact, that's a lot of why this museum is here. Hot Springs is oddly proud of the history it is a part of in the Roaring 20's and Prohibition Era.

Naturally there's an Al Capone gallery, but you know that story already and move on. Another gallery related to Hot Springs is the "Casino Gallery," speaking to the fact Hot Springs had the largest illegal gambling racket in America for forty years.

"103 casinos?" Raven says with a chuckle. "Wow..."

After the exhibits is the gift shop, just as there would be for any museum.

A) Buy something
