|{{IL|Recalcitrant Sculptress}} || Upgrade {{IL|Misplaced Ring}} or pay 30 {{FontFate}} || [[Enlist expert assistance]] in the Jericho Library || The Jericho Library is fairly niche, however, it's notable that '''failing''' her option gives a {{IL|Live Specimen}}, which can otherwise be fairly annoying to obtain. The check is difficult to fail with endgame stats, but there are [[Weasel of Woe|ways around that]].

| {{IL|Clay Corroborator}} || Upgrade {{FontHallowmas}} companion {{IL|Acerbic Clay Man}} || [[Employ the services of the Clay Corroborator|An option]] on The Law's Long Arm that costs {{e}}1 and reduces Suspicion by 7 CP. || Does not affect and is not affected by {{IL|Counting the Days}}, and is significantly better than [[Official incompetence]]. In terms of the other options, this is more than twice as effective as [[Lay a false trail]], and as effective on average as [[Unleash Baseborn & Fowlingpiece]] and [[Make sure nobody is telling tales]], though those options require specific levels of {{IL|Counting the Days|Apperance=CtD}} and either {{IL|Infernal Contract|10 x}} or the right {{IL|Closest To -}}, respectively. {{IL|Infernal Contract}} are hard to come by and throwing your weight around in the underworld also gives 1 CP of {{IL|Wounds}}, so this option is likely overall the best.<br /><br />Note also that 7 CP of Suspicion reduction is 1 CP more than you get from [[Dupe a friend into covering for you]]. This is certainly a better CP per echo ratio than sending {{IL|Name Written in Gant}} and doesn't require knowing a Licentiate, albeit it is card based and the letter also reduces 6 CP of Scandal.

| {{IL|Gravel-Voiced Gossip}}}} || Upgrade {{FontHallowmas}} companion {{IL|Acerbic Clay Man}} || [[Engage in moral rectitude with the Gravel-Voiced Gossip|An option]] on [[An Afternoon of Good Deeds?]] that reduces Scandal by 7 CP and gives {{IL|Incendiary Gossip|2 x}}. || Does not affect and is not affected by {{IL|Counting the Days}}. Strictly better than any of the other (free) options on that card, and a better EPA to boot unless you really want the Favours from {{IL|Counting the Days|Appearance=CtD}}.<br /><br />Note also that 7 CP of Suspicion reduction is 1 CP more than you get from [[Use someone as your dupe]]. This is also a larger Scandal reduction than sending {{IL|Name Written in Gant}} and doesn't require knowing a Licentiate, albeit it is card based and the letter also reduces 6 CP of Suspicion.

| {{IL|Ermine Assassin}} || Upgrade {{IL|Araby Fighting-Weasel}} || [[Attend with your Ermine Assassin]] on [[City Vices: a tournament of weasels!]] || Valuing {{IL|Someone is Coming}} CP at {{e}}2 when cashing out with [[Raw material]], this gives a fairly respectable 5.5 EPA on an otherwise terrible card. That jumps to 5.8 EPA if you redeem with [[A bag of jangling coins]] and you're willing to occasionally trek to {{IL|Irem}} to redeem the Justificandes either at [[Of the Pillars]] or [[The Futures Market]] and trade the result in the Rat-Market.<br /><br />This card can also be avoided entirely with {{IL|A Remote Address}}.
