I tranq’d him but no, he only dies via emetics. Unless you use sedative syringe in his IV drop; then he dies.

There’s two quick things I learned today in VR…
When NPCs are trying to arrest you, since there is no ‘Press button to pretend to surrender’, by raising your hands, the NPCs will come close to arrest you, leaving you room to melee… (sometimes they will just shoot you).
Also, if you are holding something small and breakable (muffin, pumpkin), I’ve had them shoot them and break them, keeping me from using them.
I tried to get a good video of it, but it’s not everytime.

That’s really nice.
I’ve got to try that with the Gluttony Suit.
The idea of a cape/cloak on the suit is great, but it’s really hampered by the fact that in 47’s run animation, it gets caught on his feet all the dang time. I want that thing to flow behind me!

Ive also noticed that it has the magic ability to lightly billow even in areas with no wind

There are contracts with unlimited targets now! Since when is this a thing? Half of Xbox’ trending contracts are like that. Looks cool. How do they make them?

You most likely play some contracts created via @Urben’s tool. It allows some modifications like required specific item kills or more-than-5-target contract creation.

That’s great!
But how come I can play these on Xbox?

Here’s a quote from the post that might answer you question.
I am a console player and have a contract idea, what should I do?
Since you cannot create contracts directly yourself, write your exact idea + briefing into this thread. A fellow PC player might happen to create it for you. That player can also insert your username into the Author field. After that you two can proceed with the recreation process for your console.

I’ll move to that thread for my further questions. It’s like a whole new world opened up to me.

If I’m not mistaken, I just heard a phone conversation in Bangkok where Ken Morgan sends Corvo Black to help Helen West’s husband (maybe father or brother, he’s just called mister) out of a drunk driving incident. Unless I missed something in Whittleton Creek, it either didn’t work or Mr. West has since passed on.
Also, Keith McKenzie, the guy that talks to Ken under the trees just outside the main entrance (and wants to grow to be just as big of a scumbag one day), mentions Ken’s work during a tax scandal at Haven.

Or it could be some dude with the last not-entirely-uncommon surname West.

Irl, maybe, but I’ve only come across one person in the Hitman universe with that surname. She also happens to be a serial killer so, assuming Morgan, Yates & Kohn did their thing and got the mysterious “Mr. West” off, maybe she killed him between Club 27 and Another Life.

I think your mistake is assuming every little detail and named location/person is connected to each other. Helen isn’t even associated with Providence aside from accidentally(?) killing one of their members and inadvertently making friends with another.

I know there’s more in the games that are just random conversations more intent on making the world feel alive than connecting everything together; Ken Morgan has a few of those on the phone too. However, Providence is this universe’s Illuminati and their whole schtick is being everywhere and nowhere.
In this particular case, I was also interested in the Corvo Black reference and the name West made me think of Helen and Whittleton Creek. There’s every possibility the two are unrelated and I tried to hint to that because I don’t remember everything Helen gets up to the mission nor every piece of dialogue she’s involved in. In short, I can’t remember if she had/has a husband or if she mentioned anything about it but the name evokes her to me.
Also, Ken Morgan doesn’t have anything to do with Providence either, Don Yates does. I just thought the Corvo Black reference was cool and it wasn’t something I (or anyone else) thought twice about until actually meeting Corvo in the flesh five years later.

It is pretty clear Morgan does have something to do with Providence, I mean he is senior partner to their personal law firm and his other partner was almost Herald. He represented and knows many of their members for crying out loud.
The Corvo Black reference is nice and it does show some preplanning but far to many people try to make connections where there are none because of it.

First off, GREAT VIDEO!
As to why Sierra doesn’t die, the game is setup so that any NPC in a box/closet is alive no matter what. No way to put them in a box and then detonate a bomb or use a piercing bullet or anything. Once you hide a subdued NPC they are alive until the level is over. I don’t know if this is so the game computer no longer has to worry about them or if it’s just bc the devs didn’t want to have to deal with complications of explosions killing people in boxes or whatever, so you store her in the box and it triggers the auto-protect or whatever code is going on and that is apparently more important than the tie between the car exploding and the target dying. Cool game break though.
Now who’s seeing things that aren’t there? 
Ken Morgan makes no reference to Providence, doesn’t have a pin and the whole mission is to lure Thomas Cross out of hiding because he is in Providence. The law firm is affiliated through Don Yates, and certain select people may know about it (Jordan, for example, seems to have known about it and Don and Ken were certainly on good enough terms for Don to let Ken in on the secret) but it doesn’t make them part of it. Lucas Grey, however, definitely wasn’t the type to make that distinction (though how Kohn was spared in that case is beyond me).

Uh he is talking on the phone to a Providence member at one point, it was the head of a sporting association. Not to mention almost all of his clients are linked to Providence in someway (Ether, Hamsun, Cross Media, Milton-Fitzpatrick).
No Morgan, Yates and Cohn founded the firm together in the 80s. Yates didn’t create a law firm and hire Morgan at a later date, Yates’ bio explicitly states they founded it together, if any of the three didn’t know about Providence it was Cohn who is described as a recluse.
Because Ken isn’t stupid enough to wear his secret society badge in public.
That is because Grey never ordered him dead directly, he leaked the trial info to the Highmoores who put out the contract on his life, Grey most likely wanted just Jordan dead.
