The Echo slides in the room after the Web, closing the door gently, but but not shutting it. He listens to the conversation and watches over The Web so he can focus on the packages. My hands are in the air ready to vibrate at any thugs or hidden attackers.
What is the partition like between the back room and the front store? Solid wall with a door (left open/closed)? Any windows, glass?
Oh and as I perceptively scan the room I'm looking for any jewels or loot that was described as being taken from the store.

:Jimmy's a bartender. I met him at the bar. He told me you could move merchandise," Charlie said through gritted teeth. He was putting on the tough guy act strong.

Ramirez nods and says "Jimmy a good hombre. Let me take a look at the bike but bring it around the alley and I will open the back door and we can do business there . Don't want the local policia to catch on. I will also get the taquilla too as I like to have a drink while we do business. "
The front room has a main floor with shelves and displays of goods. There is a counter and cash register. There are two doors, one leading into an office and the other a back door. Ramirez starts to walk you to the front door.
The web (using a stunt) quietly enters the back room. Echo enters and does make noise. On the shelves are some guns, alcohol, and some hot jewelry. None of the pieces look to be what was recently stolen. On the table is a box and the Japanese pottery. Also there are two paper rapped bundles. It looks as if those bundles were hidden in the box or snuggles. The box is definitely from China
Both the web and echo do hear the conversation in the front. The door is a solid door into the front room and there is a full wall splitting the two rooms no glass.

As The Web does his search the Agent will try to find a hiding spot. The best location would be, for example, behind the door to front room... with the idea that when Ramirez comes in the room and sees The Web I'd be behind him. If we get the drop on him, perhaps we won't even have to knock him out.

"Right. You go open the door. I'll be right around," Charlie said loudly.
Charlie went out front, kicked the bike to life and rode to the alley. He looked around quickly, noticed no one was around, stripped off his coveralls to reveal his Arrowhead outfit, put on his mask and went into the back room.

((Need some clarification here.)) The web (using a stunt) quietly enters the back room. Echo enters and does make noise. On the shelves are some guns, alcohol, and some hot jewelry. None of the pieces look to be what was recently stolen. On the table is a box and the Japanese pottery. Also there are two paper rapped bundles. It looks as if those bundles were hidden in the box or snuggles. The box is definitely from China ((If the jewelry is not what was recently stolen, how do we know it is hot? From older news stories? You said there were packages -- are those the bundles you're now describing? I did say I was opening the packages. And what did you mean by snuggles??))

it should read "smuggled goods".
the newspapers described what type of jewels were taken and quickly looking the jewels on the side table don't match the ones that were recently taken
The two paper bundles are square bundles and opening then reveal a large bag containing white powder.
Charlie goes out and gets the bike and makes his costume change. Ramirez locks the front store door, gets something from the register and then heads to the back door.
The web and agent echo position themselves in the room and the back door from the front room starts to open and Ramirez enters the back room

As he enters I want to grab him by the back of the neck with one hand and put my finger in his back with the other. I say in a robotic voice, "We just want information. Cooperate and you wont get hurt." I am hoping to SPOOK THE BADGUY.

Drugs. The Web had been willing to work with this fence if he played along, but if this was drugs, this Ramirez was going down. The Web quickly gave the white powder a taste test to make sure it wasn't sugar.
((It seems like this is meant to be cocaine; bear in mind that demand for cocaine was very low in the 1940s -- amphetamines were the drug of choice.))

( "I get no kick from cocaine. Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all.")
If the rear door doesn't open, Arrowhead will wreck it and charge in.

the rear door is open and unlocked since neither one shut it behind them, so Arrowhead can easily charge inside
(OOC I have changed the drugs, and since this is a Chinese box, doing some research that amphetamines (speed drugs) was a drug that the chinese used and also some military used to stay awake)
tasting the pills , these are definitely amphetamines and illegal in the US.
Ramirez is surprised to see someone near his drugs, but before he can react, Agent echo is behind him and Ramirez is silent and just listens
(making morale role)

I'm going to move him forward into the room and kick the door to the front store closed, "Slowly now. Give us the skinny, and it'll be smooth sailing."
I'm going to keep up the SPOOK with the finger in the back and stay observant to his movements while the interrogation is going on. I'm ready to give him a vibration scare if needed.

Arrowhead opens the door and, seeing Web and Agent Echo in the room with the fence, he just stands in the door, hands on hips, looking imposing. Arrowhead notices he's silhouetted against a light coming from the alley. He resists the sudden urge to cast shadow puppets on the far wall. Instead he stays alert to anyone coming down the alley.

The Web waited a half-minute to see if Ramirez was going to sing like a canary just from that scare. If not, The Web planned to grab him, shove him into some boxes, and while holding his lapels say "It's bad enough that you're fencing stolen goods, but moving drugs? If you don't roll over on your supplier right now, you may not leave this room alive!"

Ramirez still is quiet even with agent echo finger, then the web slams him in the boxes and yells, "wait wait don't hurt me. I can't tell you who they are they will kill my daughter. Can we work this out? Can I cut you in with some of the profit?"
