Walkthrough

In this mission for Jimmy Pegorino, Niko finds out that Anthony Corrado, Pegorino's best guard, was wearing a wire and working for the government. He needs Niko to silence Corrado (who was taken to a maximum security hospital after a heart attack caused by Pegorino's outrage over a phone call). He was transported to Westdyke Memorial Hospital. Police officers are guarding the area outside Anthony's room, and will attack Niko if he passes them -- to counteract this, Niko can steal a doctor's uniform and pass by unsuspected, causing the bedside witness to leave Niko alone with Anthony and the police officers to allow him to pass. If the player wants to execute him, he/she should point a gun at him and shoot him. This will draw the FIB's attention - making for a difficult escape. Alternatively, the player can approach the life support machine and deactivate it. Niko will say something like "Go to sleep, Anthony" as his life fades away. After that, Niko walks out of the ER room. Shortly after, Corrado is found dead by the FIB, and Niko is blamed.

Aftermath

Liberty Tree Newspaper

"A state's witness under heavy guard by both the LCPD and the FIB has been killed in the Westdyke Memorial Hospital. The witness Anthony Corrado had been expected to testify against suspected Alderney mob boss Jimmy Pegorino."

"A source close to the mob tells us that the witness's death is a big blow to the state's case against Pegorino, "Anthony was Jimmy P's personal bodyguard. If he took to the stand there wasn't no chance of Jimmy seeing daylight ever again. Now, they're screwed." The District Attorney, however, has other ideas, "We're working hard to put a case together against these lowlifes. Mr. Corrado was just one piece of the puzzle, albeit an important one." Corrado had been in the custody of the state for over a week. It is thought that the stress of betraying Pegorino and his cohorts was too much for him as he suffered a heart attack soon after agreeing to testify. Police are searching for the hitman and any possible links between the murder of their witness and Jimmy Pegorino."

Tips

  • There's an accessible hospital room to the left of you before heading out to the lobby. Walk into there before entering the lobby.

  • After gaining the automatic wanted level, an easy way to lose the cops is to drive to the nearby Pay 'n' Spray, since if you enter without the police noticing, you will be able to end the mission quickly.
    • If the player hasn't killed any police officers, they should have only 2 stars of Wanted Level, allowing for easy escape.

Trivia

  • Taking the doctor's outfit may have been inspired by the Hitman series, as well as the fact that there is a mission called "Flatline" in Hitman: Blood Money, where Agent 47 can take a doctor's outfit and has to kill three patients in a hospital without drawing attention from the guards.
  • If the player chooses to wear the doctor's outfit, it will be added to their wardrobe.
  • If you try to go to Anthony's room without the scrubs, the police officers will aim at you and tell you that the room is off limits. However, if you put on the scrubs and return after doing that, one of the officers will say something like "I just saw you a second ago.

  • An easier way to silence Anthony is to pull the wire out of the heart rate monitor by walking up to it, however, the FIB agents will still come after you upon discovering he's dead.
  • The manner in which you kill Anthony is reminiscent to the movie The Godfather, where the drug baron Virgil Sollozzo sends hitmen to assassinate an injured Vito Corleone whilst he is being treated in the hospital.
