Mr. mikdee,

You must be subscribed to go after an Arch Villain, but you do not to get contacts. However, you can only get contacts in NY because you need to be subscribed to travel. Travel is also required to go after an Arch Villain.

Regarding contacts, from the Newbie FAQ (linked at the bottom of every page):

"What are contacts?
Contacts are townspeople who have become your friends and will always answer an unlimited number of questions when working on a case (they won't clam up). You earn contacts by doing favors for people.

How do you get (the right) contacts?
You can have up to 2 contacts in each city - one PE (physical evidence) contact (barber, banker, tailor, shoemaker) and one non-PE (fortune teller, bartender, waiter, etc.). You get a contact by doing favors for the townspeople. Most of the time you'll get a piece of equipment, but sometimes the townsperson will become your contact. Once a townsperson becomes your contact that's it, you can't exchange that person for someone else. So if you want to get specific contacts, f. ex. a specific PE contact, you'll have to quit any favors you might get for the other PE townies. Just keep in mind that getting a specific contact can take a little longer due to the quits. "
