Your Character
Although you meet Gabe officially in Chapter 1, he tells you that he was the one who recommended you to Sadie McGraw.

In Chapters 4 and 5's moot court case, if you find the correlation between the employee Sam Turlington and another Augur employee and determine that they conspired to defraud the company out of millions of dollars, Gabe mentions in reality, he was the one who made the discovery and that discovery led to him making junior partner at a young age.

If you decide to grab food to help you and Aislinn Tanaka power through the discovery for moot court, Gabe takes you to Hoi On, a Chinese restaurant nearby that helped him when he spent long hours at the firm.

In Chapter 6, Gabe invites you to a client dinner. If you decide to flirt with him, you discover that he had been in a previous relationship that didn't work out. At the restaurant, the waiter comments that both he and the chef thought Gabe would never settle down, but both are happy that you were able to tie him down.

 * His surname, Ricci, is of Italian descent, and comes from the word "riccio," which means "curly."
 * In Chapter 6, Gabe mentions that he has known Lydia Rothswell since she was 2 years old. If he met her when he first joined the firm, his age range is approximately 38-46 years old.
 * The general ages for undergraduate university are: Freshman (18), Sophomore (19), Junior (20), and Senior (21), graduating at 22 years old.
 * Most law schools are 3 years full-time study. If he went straight after graduating university, he would have graduated at 25 years old.

 * Lydia is now 17 (a month or so shy of 18), which means he has been at McGraw Byrne for at least 15 years.
