Mission

Hsin tells Huang that his friendship with the Messina Family is "in the toilet" because of him. Huang tries to convince Hsin that there's a recording of Jimmy Capra talking to the FIB. Hsin tells Huang that there's no such recording, and that Rudy D'Avanzo has a longstanding vendetta against the family, and that he should just go kill him to get revenge.

After Huang goes through D'Avanzo's previous locations, he finds his car outside of a store. Huang rushes inside, and hears a conversation between D'Avanzo and his assistant. D'Avanzo tells his assistant that he was tricking Huang into believing that Capra was talking to the FIB. Huang says something, and when he opens the door, he's frozen in surprise. D'Avanzo is seen in a dress wearing lipstick, and says "Fuck you! My father used to look at me like that! So fucking judgemental!" After the phrase, Huang is still shocked, and his assistant points a gun at him, saying "Stop judging my boss, you bitch!" Rudy plans to escape by car while the assistant tries to kill Huang. Huang kills the assistant and eventually gets his revenge when he kills Rudy.

A trick to do this mission is to use a car to block Rudy's car or to hit it with another car, so Rudy will just run and will be easier for you to waste.

Mission objectives

In order to complete the mission the player must:

• Locate D'Avanzo by visting his previous locations
• Enter the store and confront him
• Take down D'Avanzo

Mission Replay description

"D'Avanzo was screwing with me. Capra wasn't the FIB rat!

Those two guys have been fighting each other for years. D'Avanzo was just using me to get to him.

Now Hsin's really pissed at me! ...I made D'Avanzo pay for that."

Bugs

Sometimes after D'Avanzo says that his father used to look at him like Huang did, there will be no more text in the cutscene after that point. This is random, but happens frequently.
