Lure is one of the final missions in Grand Theft Auto IV that Niko Bellic completes for Francis McReary.

Walkthrough

Francis greets Niko angrily by the fountain. He explains that although Clarence Little has had his fate, Little's right hand man is threating to talk the cops about McReary. Francis threats to expose Niko's deeds to the feds if he is busted, Niko is still not killing him. Francis then pays, so Niko agrees to take out Little's man.

After the cutscene, hail a taxi or drive to the Feltzer in a parking lot across town. Your sniper rifle ammo will rise once you hop in. Drive to the building nearby with the sports car. Park the car and as per Francis' instructions, climb the building on the opposite side of the street. At the roof, a cutscene shows Little's right hand man watching TV, however he is not seen from the scope of the rifle. It's time to lure the man to the window somehow.

You'll see a number on the dealer's phone: 545-555-0122. If you don't take action, eventually Francis will call you with the number. Call it and the dealer will get up to answer the phone, thinking the caller is someone named Shaniqua, possibly his girlfriend. Aim the scope at his head and pull the trigger. After that, get off the roof and back to the street.

You can also target the dish on the side of the building, then shoot the dealer when he gets up to see why he's lost his television signal. You can even shoot the TV, but you get only a small window of opportunity to make your shot.

You are also able to climb the fire escape up towards his window, if you aim right you can throw a grenade inside and sometimes kill him. Easy to do, but not for the new players.

Trivia

• There is a glitch that allows you to enter the dealers apartment after the mission.
• If you scare him, for example by firing a few shots through the window, he will try to escape out the front door and drive off in the Buccaneer parked outside.
• After you have killed the dealer and you are told to leave the roof, you can just jump straight off, and even though you die, you will still complete the mission.
