— Phil Cassidy

Boomshine Saigon is the final mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City given to protagonist Tommy Vercetti by Phil Cassidy from his firearms business in Little Haiti, Vice City.

Mission

Tommy goes to Phil's Place and finds a drunken Phil, who shows him his boomshine bombs. Phil presses the detonator as Tommy ducks down on reflex, but the bomb fails to explode. Realizing it must be the remote's batteries, Phil staggers over where he has fresh ones... sitting on the bench beside the bomb. Having just changed the batteries, Phil throws up his arms in celebration, with the bomb just off to his right. The motion causes him to accidently pull the trigger, and the explosion blows off Phil's right arm. Phil knows he's injured, but only falls to his knees laughing, too drunk to feel the pain.

An intoxicated Tommy then gets Phil into his Patriot and drives him to the West Haven Community Healthcare Centre. Phil, however, states that the hospital is full of police and Viet Cong, and asks to be driven to an ex-army surgeon in Little Havana, as he owes Phil a favor, completing the mission.

Mission objectives

In order to complete the mission the player must:

Quick, get Phil to the hospital!
Get Phil to the surgeon in Little Havana

Trivia

The song that can be heard playing in the background during the opening cutscene is "Burnin' for You" by Blue Öyster Cult. The song is not featured on any of the in-game radio stations.
During the cutscene, Phil blows off his right arm. However, it shows him with it intact and his left arm missing when he is dropped off at the doctor. This means the initial cut scene is incorrect as the mission, "Arms Shortage" in GTA III shows, Phil got his left arm blown off.
The mission name is a reference to the Billy Joel song Goodnight Saigon. Saigon was the capital of South Vietnam during the Vietnam War, and Phil often claimed he served in the Vietnam War.
- During the drive to the doctor, Phil drunkenly mentions "Charlie" (a reference to Communist soldiers and derived from the phonetic alphabet term "Victor Charlie") and the Viet Cong.
In Grand Theft Auto III, Phil claims that his arm was blown off in Nicaragua, but the events of this mission contradicts Phil's statement in GTA III.
This is the only time in the 3D Universe that the player can be arrested for drunk-driving.

 ==Mission==
-Tommy Vercetti goes to [[Phil's Place]] and finds a drunken Phil Cassidy, who shows him his [[Boomshine|boomshine bombs]], with Vercetti saying that he feels 'woozy', as he's getting slightly drunk from the fumes. Phil presses the detonator as Tommy ducks down on reflex, but the bomb fails to explode. Realizing it must be the remote's batteries, Phil staggers over where he has fresh ones... sitting on the bench beside the bomb. Having just changed the batteries, Phil throws up his arms in celebration, with the bomb just off to his right. The motion (of course) causes him to accidently pull the trigger, and the explosion blows off Phil's right arm. Phil knows he's injured, but only falls to his knees and onto his face laughing; he's so drunk that he apparently can't feel any pain.
