At first, it's suggested that the Mendez brothers want an alliance with the Vance brothers, however, it turns out that they offer the Vic a deal, which is to hand over all his businesses to them and leave town or him and his family will be killed. Victor refuses to give up his interests after working for the Mendez brothers, and in retaliation, they knock Lance and him unconscious when their guard is down, then kidnap them. The Vance brothers wake up in an oil refinery in [[Viceport]], and while attempting to escape, Mendez's men accidentally shoot at one of the gas tanks, causing it to explode. While this kills most of the henchmen, Lance is trapped in the inferno and separated from Vic. Luckily, Vic manages to save Lance before the oil refinery implodes. | At first, it's suggested that the Mendez brothers want an alliance with the Vance brothers, however, it turns out that they offer the Vic a deal, which is to hand over all his businesses to them and leave town or him and his family will be killed.

In a rage, Vic slaughters Armando's bodyguards and enters the [[Mendez Mansion]] to confront Armando. Vic asks where Lance and Louise are; Armando replies that they are dead, however he tells Vic they did not feel a thing and pulls out a [[Flamethrower]] to kill him. Vic then kills Armando and finds Louise shot several times and an injured Lance who wakes up as Louise says her last words to Vic. Soon after, with the aid of drug lord, [[Ricardo Diaz]] and Louise's brother Phil Cassidy, Vic breaks up into his old army barracks and steals a [[Hunter]] helicopter under heavy guarding. Vic, later on, uses the helicopter to attack the [[Mendez Building]] in [[Downtown Vice City|Downtown]] and ends up being shot down, but manages to make it to the roof of the building. Vic continues his way inside and kills all the goons on his way while finally finding Diego and enemy Jerry Martinez arriving in a [[Maverick]]. Vic takes out everyone and is confronted by both Diego and Martinez on the roof. Vic manages to win the battle and decides to lay low for a while on the money he's made along with his brother, Lance. While Lance offers a drug deal worth 20kg of cocaine, Vic refuses his interests and says he never wants to touch drugs ever again, to which Lance says 'whatever you say bro'. | ||
