Against All Odds is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas given to protagonist Carl "CJ" Johnson by countryside criminal Catalina from outside the Inside Track betting shop in the town of Montgomery, Red County, San Andreas.

Mission

Carl and Catalina arrive at the betting shop in Montgomery, having already decided to rob the shop at Catalina's hideout. The two enter the building with Catalina pointing a gun at the female cashier, threatening to kill her if she does not open the back door. The cashier, however, pushes the panic button and an alarm goes off, with Catalina shooting the cashier, who is protected by bullet-proof glass. Catalina, in anger, then kills one of the customers before telling Carl to open the door and then the safe with Satchel Charges that she had obtained. After doing so, Carl collects the money from the safe and the two leave. They leave the shop and, after losing the police chasing for a 4-star wanted level, return to Catalina's hideout in Fern Ridge where Catalina giving Carl his share of the money.

Script

CJ: You wanna rob a betting shop?

Catalina: Yeah. You not man enough? Here, Carl.

CJ: Satchel charges?! Where the hell'd you get them?

(Catalina and Carl enter the betting shop and hold it up.)

Catalina: Open the backroom door or I blow your fucking face off! Leave the panic button or I'll kill your children too!

(The cashier hits the panic button and an alarm goes off.)

Catalina: I warned you, you stupid bitch! Stupid fucking bitch! Now I'll kill you, eat my shit. Carl, c'mon, stop playing with your balls and hurry up!

(Catalina fires the gun towards the employee, who is unharmed due to bullet-proof glass. Catalina then kills one of the customers. Carl then uses the satchel charges to blow up the door and then the safe.)

CJ: OK, I got it!

Catalina: About fucking time, you're a fucking sloth!

CJ: Whatever. Let's roll!

(Carl and Catalina get out of the betting shop.)

Catalina: Get in the fucking car!

(Catalina and Carl evade the police and return to Catalina's hideout.)

Catalina: You impress me, Carl Johnson! Here's your cut, big man.

Reward

The reward for completing the mission is $2,000.

Satchel Charges will now become avaliable for purchase at Ammu-Nation for $2,000.

Trivia

  • This is the only major storyline mission in which a wanted level higher than 3 stars is assigned by default when committing a crime. All other missions where a wanted level is assigned usually deal with a 2-star or 3-star wanted level, and in very rare cases, a 1-star wanted level.
  • This is the only mission, apart from the final trucking side mission, to warrant a 4-star wanted level.
  • Catalina's dialogue, "Get in the fucking car", contains a possible reference to a similar dialogue used by Bowser which is often repeated in spoof videos and bloopers in the Super Mario Bros. game series.
