Absurd Plot Hooks

I need comedic small plothooks for an upcoming Shadowrun game. Coastal city, street level. Need some filler plot hooks for times where we need a lighthearted romp about the city. Also general humor plot hook thread.

Bump. I'm interested.

A local gang confuses a saxophone player for a hitman. Shenigans ensue.

The beloved pet of a filthy rich family got away and your runners are contracted to bring it back. The pet is in reality a changeling discovering the local party scene.

A mysterious group organized a scavenger hunt to celebrate a legendary heist/run that happened ten years ago. Rumors say the price is the loot from ten years ago.

Someone’s fixing matches at the robot on robot fight arenas.

A yuppie hires you to kidnap him and his girlfriend so he can break them out and be a hero.

You have to solve the murder of a cyber-clown.

Security Detail for a movie filming. You get to pick the genre yourself.

One of the local gangs is really shitty at being scary criminals but since they come from powerful families no one wants to call them out on it.

A wiz-gang is running the neighborhood and will only leave if someone bests them in a children's card game.

'Cyber-clown' really set off a whirlwind of ideas in my head. Thank you.

Coastal City can probably handle multiple sewer adventures and sewage mishaps can always tickle the ribs. Search for lost pirate treasure that is actually a 70s porn stash. Hunt for evil awakened nutria society. "I accidentally dropped VIP Corpdata stick down the toilet, please track it down."

Oh, after a couple sewer runs you could toss them Johnsons like, "So you're the sewer guys? Can you take a look at the septic system at my beachhouse?" or, " Hey Sewerunners, here's a legit mission, but could you take a quick look at the pipes while you're down there?"

Pirate themed go-gang terrorizing the coast line.

Very much welcome sir.

Help an ailing Neo-Disco with their protection money.

uncover a criminal group operating within a VR-MMO

Help a minor politician with their reelection campaign.

This guy is the solution to all your problems.

My favorite one - Your Johnson, who was delirious after a divorce, contacted your Fixer with a lot of money, only mentioning "daddy's little girl" and "his baby." He wants your party to get her back via basically kidnapping. Infiltrate a penthouse suite at night, mother is sleeping, daughter in her room, a bit upset, but misses her dad. The kicker, is that the name does not match with who he wanted saved. His real baby is a prized magical cockatoo that can talk like a human, and knows all his banking info for added difficulty bonus. I like to use it for a campaign starter.

Breakout of animals at the local zoo.

The fixer gets the PCs a job as security for a horrible band during a battle of the bands at a local club. All of the band members are super chill but the rival band keeps trying to kill them in Scooby Doo like shenanigans.

Bodyguard duty, not for a child actor, but an adult actor who’s taken gene therapy to look like a child actor for roles.

Get involved in a literal fast food war.

The run is actually a gameshow and they're the (possibly unknowing) contestants

These are all pretty good, thanks guys!

A dragon is interested in this strange human phenomena known as a "birthday party."

Long-story short some Johnsons want some really, really impressive gifts.

So you need to kidnap some rare animals.
