The Grey Gull is a waterfront bar owned by Duke Crocker.
History[]
The restaurant was formerly owned by the McShaw family, and operated for a brief time as the Second Chance Bistro. In 2010, the restaurant was bought by Bill McShaw with his brother Jeff. The two planned a grand re-opening in July, but the evening turned disastrous when all of Jeff's cooking turned inexplicably rancid. Crocker purchased the bar from Bill for $20 in July of 2010.
In Fear & Loathing, a memorial service was held at the bar in honor of the recently-deceased Chief of Police Garland Wuornos. Crocker later offered the rooms above the bar for rent to Audrey Parker. Audrey moved in the room above the bar in Love Machine. In Friend or Faux Duke lets Henry, a kid, hide out at his place for a bit.
In Fallout, Duke's brother Wade, takes over in Duke's "apparent" death. In The Trouble With Troubles, the Grey Gull in an alternate reality is a JoJo's Bait Shop.
In Spotlight, Duke catches Jody taking cash and confronts her. Then her trouble activates and sets somethings on fire. In The Old Switcheroo: Part 2, Nathan and Duke take Mara to the Gull so Duke can let out a reincarnation trouble to bring Audrey back.
It is at the Gull where Duke first started to accidentally Trouble people, his first two being Joe Sena and Lisa. When Duke's Trouble-Bomb exploded fully, a sea monster Trouble was activated; the sea monster pulled part of the Gull into the water and destroyed it.
