In [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]], Lance Vance is first mentioned by messages via pager to Victor by [[Aunt Enid]]. He is also mentioned by Victor in the opening cutscene, saying that [[Pete Vance|Pete]] is sick with asthma, and that Lance is sick in another way (suggesting his cocaine addiction or possibly just how Lance acts). Lance arrives from his home (which is not stated) to share Victor's rise to power. Victor says no, knowing full well Lance's penchant for falling into trouble, but he eventually agrees to work with him. Lance makes contact with drug dealer [[Bryan Forbes]], who is really an undercover cop from the [[Vice City Police Department]]. After finding this out, Lance decides not to kill Forbes, hoping that holding him captive would force him to divulge the locations of numerous drug deals around the city (Victor eventually kills Forbes when he tries to escape, after Bryan tricks the brothers three times, even leading them to a white supremists homosexual bar called The [[White Stallionz]]).
In [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]], set 2 years before events in GTA Vice City, Lance Vance is first mentioned by messages via pager to Victor by [[Aunt Enid]].

Lance then suggests an attack on a drug deal with [[Jerry Martinez]], the deal that Forbes was also talking about. Victor and Lance kill the dealers and steal two trucks worth of drugs, managing to escape to the other side of Vice City alive while Martinez uses a [[Hunter]] attack helicopter in an attempt to destroy them. Afterwards Victor calls Jerry and rubs the failed deal in his face saying that it hurts to be betrayed, however Martinez warns Victor that they messed up a [[Diego and Armando Mendez|Mendez Brothers]] deal and that the Mendez' will kill all involved, including Jerry himself. Lance promises Victor to deal with the problem and actually manages to form an alliance with the Mendez Brothers. Lance's cocaine addiction becomes known when he lies about a shipment of cocaine being stolen by a biker gang. In the mission "[[Light My Pyre]]" Lance says [[Louise Cassidy-Williams]] is a drug addict and explains he only does it for fun, stating there's a difference. When Victor learns that Louise has been kidnapped by [[Diego and Armando Mendez|Armando Mendez]] from [[Mary-Jo Cassidy|Mary-Jo]], Lance shows no feelings for her, saying that she's better off dead. Victor forces Lance to come as help, Mendez' men appear and tell Victor and Lance to leave Vice City and Louise will be left alone. Lance only goes after Mendez when his henchmen destroy his car with a [[Rocket Launcher|rocket launcher]], after that Lance rushes to Armando and [[Diego and Armando Mendez|Diego's]] mansion to kill them, ignoring thugs shooting at him in cars; he even attacks Armando fully, even with a large amount of bodyguards blocking his way. After Louise dies, he tells Victor that she wasn't right for him and that family is what matters most (implying himself). At the end of the game, Lance arrives at the Mendez penthouse to back up Victor, but he arrives so late that the shootout is already over.
