I need someone no one knows to oversee a deal I'm not sure about.

Plot

Elizabeta asks Niko to keep watch over a deal involving Patrick McReary that she isn't too comfortable with.

  • Shoot through the windshield to hit the driver. (if he gets in the car)

Walkthrough

Head over to the building on Joliet Street. Head up the stairs and collect the Sniper Rifle from the corner the player exits. Go around the escape and step into the yellow marker. The game then gives a tutorial about how to use a sniper. Packie arrives with the "stuff." While he is doing that, aim down the sights and wait for the deal to botch, and the dealers to begin to shoot at Patrick and his unnamed accociate.

Madly snipe all of the men and some more pour in. Zoom in with the sniper rifle and take out all of the attackers. Take your time with each shot and deal with one person at a time. Don't worry much about your health, as they won't even notice you. One of the attackers gets in a tussle with Patrick, so snipe him, and then three more attackers will arrive. Once you have taken out the three attackers, the last attacker will attempt to escape in the van. Snipe him through the windshield to complete the mission. Afterwards, Niko calls Elizabeta to let her know that Patrick is safe.

Deaths

  • Packie's associate (optional) - Can be killed by the dealers during the shoot out, can also be killed by Niko.

Michelle will call Niko, saying to be careful around Elizabeta Torres because she's a dealer.
