The following is a walkthrough of the Grand Theft Auto: Vice City mission Waste the Wife for Mr. Black.

Before the mission

Before you begin this mission, it is reccommended to obtain Ricardo Diaz' indestructable Admiral from the mission Guardian Angels, and it is reccommended to complete this mission before the completion of Guardian Angels, as it makes the mission easier to complete.

Walkthrough

After the completion of the mission Mall Shootout for Juan Cortez, go to the ringing payphone in Vice Point. Walk into the pink halo to answer the ringing payphone. Mr. Black will call you and, thinking you are Leo Teal, complements you for an earlier assignment you have completed, and saying his client was pleased at your job. He then goes on to explain his next task; his employer wants his wife, Mrs. Dawson, dead.

After the mission cutscene finishes, you will be given the following instructions:

Mrs. Dawson will be leaving the Jewellery Shop in Vice Point soon. Kill her. It must look like a car accident.

Take a powerful, but fast muscle car - like the Comet or the Phoenix, or you can use Diaz's indestructable Admiral from Guardian Angels, and drive it to the pink halo opposite the jewelery shop, which is just a short drive away. Park it on the blip on the radar and wait for the cutscene. Follow her car and ram it as hard as you can, even if your car is swirling out of control. Her Comet will take about seven to eight hits and you'll spend much collisions spinning out, so keep checking on her direction so you can right the car and head after her. You'll be told when the car is about to explode so then back off the vicinity and wait for the explosion, then the mission concludes.

Trivia

  • In the mission the player can obtain the Comet with locked doors. Do a drive by on the car to fail the mission, the lady will then run out leaving the door open. Now you can get in the Comet. Police and civilians will not be able to pull you out. Be warned that you can not get back in if you close the door and if you save it in a garage, it will lose its special ability.
  • It is reccomended to complete this mission before the completion of Guardian Angels so that Mrs. Dawson cannot flee into Starfish Island to escape from the player and the player has a smaller chance of failing the mission.
  • It is also reccomended to obtain Ricardo Diaz' indestructable Admiral to complete the mission. Because it is indestructable, the player will not have to constantly change cars because the previous one catches fire and explodes.
