Niko goes to [[Drusilla's]] and meets Ray. Ray asks Niko if he's reliable and whether he can be trusted. He then asks him about why's he doing all the jobs for people. Niko explains that he needs money, he's good at it and that he is looking for someone. Ray says that he will help and gives Niko a task to kill someone not re-paying debt Ray. He tells Niko that he can be found on [[Galveston Avenue|Galveston]] near U and that his name is [[Teddy Benavidez]]. Niko says he'll do it if he's paid, to which Ray responds he'll pay double.
[[Ray Boccino]] in a [[Drusilla's|restaurant]] in [[Little Italy]], [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]]. Ray asks [[Niko Bellic|Niko]] to do him a favor, kill [[Teddy Benavidez]] in East Holland.

Niko walks out from the restaurant and receives a text message from Ray showing a picture of [[Alonzo|Alonzo]], one of Ray's henchman.
==Walkthrough==
 
After the initial [[cutscene]], head over to the projects in Northern [[Algonquin]]. On the way, Boccino sends you a text message with a picture of a man with a sports jersey. Remember the number on the jersey (# 72) and arrive at the projects.
 
   
  +
Once at the [[Westminster Towers|projects]], Niko is tasked to look for Alonzo. When he finds him, Niko intimidates him for Teddy's location. Niko can then kill or incapacitate Alonzo to avoid attention. Niko then to the 20th floor. He meets 2 goons that attack him. Niko has to shoot through to Teddy's apartment. Once in the apartment, Teddy pushes a door into Niko and attempts an escape. Once he's on the roof, he has trapped himself by the edge. Any contact, whether it's a gunshot, punch, thrown object or melee attack will cause Teddy to fall to his death. Once Teddy is dead, Niko reappears outside the projects and calls Ray to inform him that Teddy is dead. Ray denies all knowledge and the mission is passed.
Get out of your car, if you took one, and find [[Alonzo]], the guy with the sports jersey, that knows where Teddy is. Target Alonzo and after his conversation is complete, either kill him or let him go and head to the nearby apartment building. The elevator can be used to get to the 20th floor. If you let Alonzo live, he'll go to phone Teddy and warn him that Niko is coming for him. The thugs will immediatly attack Niko once he gets out of the elevator.
 
   
 
== Mission Objectives ==
If you kill Alonzo, a pair of Alonzo's goons notice the open elevator and ask Niko whether he is moving in. Kill the two thugs before they get their weapons out and go outside of the elevator room. Gain cover and shoot all of the thugs on the way to the stairs. Take the stairs up to the next level and kill Teddy's men on that level. After you climb a few floors and kill Teddy's guards, Niko will notice Apartment 151K and break in. Get a weapon and shoot Teddy's bodyguards. To continue with the mission, walk into the kitchen, and then return to the hall of the apartment.
 
 
Teddy smashes a door in Niko's face and makes a run for it. Chase him to the roof of the projects, killing Teddy's goons on the stairs and the roof, and corner him at the edge of the building. Use any weapon to make Teddy slip off of the side of the building and scream through a twenty-five-story fall. Benavidez will hit the ground far below, dead. Niko appears at the front door of the projects and the mission is passed with a call to Ray.
