Here's the partly muted fourth mission from the Seven Deadly Sins DLC, "The Lust Assignation".
Silent Assassin, Suit Only, all pretenders dead. No copyrighted music at the party!

In this single-level escalation Lust tasks 47 with finding her true admirer from a group of pretenders.
The gameplay here is all about running around the mostly intact Berlin map looking for randomised safes with clues that reveal the admirer and then giving that person the Lust's bouquet of flowers.
You need a minimum of 3 clues to finish, but you can collect up to 6 to make it really easy to tell who the admirer is. The clues reveal if they're a smoker, if they dance, what they drink, male or female, clothing and lastly head type (hair and hat), always in the same order.
The safe locations are random from 12 possible locations and they can be opened either with keys or explosives, located in set places. I've seen 9 keys and 3 explosives.

There's an optional objective to kill the pretenders, which isn't as fun as you'd think. The area they're located in is very small and open with very few kill opportunities and while the unkillable Lust doesn't care about your actions, the admirer is a regular NPC with regular NPC AI.

To stay under the radar you can electrocute a couple of targets, drop chandeliers, bring a propane canister (which can be exploded by a smoker, which is sort of fun) or technically poison somebody's drink, but doing those kinds of stealthy kills is generally more difficult than it's worth. I tried to do a bit of that stuff for the video, but I just got so bored after trying to record this escalation for so very many wasted hours that I eventually resorted to just attacking the last of them, which I think is the superior method.
You can actually regularly punch out 6 of the targets before they start running, leaving you to throw something at the last one, but this method requires you to knock out the true admirer first and being very quick to deal with the others. Using items to knock people out instead of punches seems to trigger NPCs to start running faster, hence why I wrote "punch out". Just a warning.

I think everybody starts dancing a while after you give away the bouquet, so that's a potentially better time to drop chandeliers or just maim everybody faster.

Whose bright idea was it to only use half of the dance floor for the party area?

The guests all carry an item each and they're always the same. One woman carries a silenced pistol, one guy carries a screwdriver, two people carry emetic poison, one has lethal poison, I think one has an explosive maybe(?) and I think two people carry staff area keys. That's out of memory of what I've seen, so probably not accurate.

I hate this mission. It was the biggest disappointment of this whole DLC pack for me.
I didn't originally have high expectations for some themed escalations so Greed and Pride being so mundane didn't shock me, but then Sloth had an actually unique premise and when this one started out in a fancy party area with the blinding crossbow in the background and an optional objective to kill seven people, I was ready for a good time. Then I went out and faced reality.

I am not sorry for running.

Playing this escalation unlocks the 'Scarlet Suit', the 'Serpent's Bite' remote detonated explosive and 'The Serpent's Tongue' blinding dart gun.
