Unlocking the task
You must first complete the tasks: Track down your gun, Open apartment door for Evrart, and Get two signatures for Evrart. Evrart Claire in the harbor will tell you about Pigs after you do both favors for him. The woman is in possession of Harry's gun, which she bought from Roy at the Pawnshop.
Meet Evrart before the first point of no return, which is before entering the cave during the Look for Ruby on the coast main quest. After the events of the next task, Return to the Whirling-in-Rags, access to the port (and Evrart) will be permanently blocked.
Reaching the meeting point
The meeting with Pigs is possible only between 22:00-2:00 hours. It is best to take care of this at the end of the current day. You can confront her alone (sending your partner away after entering the cabin on the coast or the hotel room) or with Kim.
Pigs is to the east of the broadwalk and the Feld building, and to the north-west of the church. You can easily recognize her by the police siren and the lights.
Confronting Pigs
You need to skillfully play this confrontation - the woman owns Harry's gun and by default she will want to arrest you as a suspect. Your task will be to solve the case without bloodshed and at the same get Harry's service weapon back.
Choose calm answers. In addition, there is an opportunity to take an optional Perception skill check - by passing it, you will learn that the woman has drugs with her.
To get the weapon back, you need to pass the mandatory Hand/Eye Coordination skill check. It is worth saving the game before approaching Pigs and equipping items that will increase the skill.
A successful skill check will make Harry remember that the weapon is not loaded. A failed test is a loss of 1 morale point, but there is no risk of dying here.
Retrieve Harry's weapon and complete the task
Regardless of the skill check's result, the weapon will land on the ground. The game will give you the choice to pick up or leave Harry's weapon (Kim can then pick it up if he accompanies you) - we recommend the first variant, of course. You will get the Pepperbox Pistol cal. 9 mm and 35XP.
In the final part of the encounter (after completing the quest), you can additionally search Pigs - this will give you a headdress and there is a chance to get her drugs (if you have completed the Perception skill check earlier).
You can also decide the further fate of Pigs - leave her alone, allow Kim to take her to the station (only if he accompanies you), or talk to Titus at Whirling-in-Rags about her.
