"Maginations? is that really a word?"

—Frank, upon walking up to the store the first time

One Man's Trash is a mission in Dead Rising 2 and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record. It involves a looter who has taken over a shop in the Platinum Strip and turned it into a pawn shop.

Summary

Chuck arrives at Moe's Maginations to find it boarded up and barricaded, with the shutter down at the entryway. Behind the shutter is Reinhold, a looter, who Chuck yells at, blaming him for the other looters that attacked him in Roy's Mart. The looter chuckles and says that he must have ran into his pals—not his problem.

Reinhold then allows Chuck to enter the store, converted into a pawnshop, with several combo weapons and Zombrex for sale. All of the pawnshops in Fortune City will now be open.

One Man's Trash

Frank: Wait a minute. You... you're one of those punks that tried to jump me in Roy's Mart. Reinhold: Whatever. Might have been one of my pals, grampa. We're just businessmen, seeking out merchandise for our valuable customers. Reinhold: Feel free to browse any of our four pawnshops set up around Fortune City. There's this one here, and the others are in the Silver Strip, Royal Flush Plaza and the Palisades Mall. Reinhold: We've got lots of valuable merchandise, pal. I wouldn't turn your nose up at it. We could really help you out of a jam. Always here for a desperate man. Reinhold: Ok, let's go.

Trivia

• If Chuck goes to the other pawnshops in the Palisades Mall, Royal Flush Plaza or Silver Strip before he talks to the looter in Moe's Maginations, he will find that they are locked.
• The game's files refer to the mission as "PawnShopScoop" (Pawn Shop Scoop).
• The mission in Off the Record is nearly identical to its Dead Rising 2 counterpart.
  • Off the Record call: "Hey Frank, looks like one of those looters has set up a pawnshop inside Moe's Maginations. He might have something worthwhile in there."
• If the player never encounters Denyce, this mission will still be available, albeit unlisted. Chuck will also still mention how the looters attacked him in Roy's Mart, despite this never actually happening.
  • This mission can affect the "Come On! Follow Me!" achievement/trophy because only eight survivors can be active on the map at a time, and the looter seems to count as a survivor until the shop is visited for the first time. This can cause some confusion if the mission isn't listed but is still active.
• On rare occasions, the barricade will not disappear after talking to Reinhold, and Chuck will be trapped inside the store with no way to get out.
