'''Dam and Blast''' is a playably voluntary but canonically mandatory storyline mission in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], accessed independently by [[protagonist]] [[Carl Johnson|Carl "CJ" Johnson]] under the inspiration of blind Chinese-American [[San Fierro Triads]] leader [[Wu Zi Mu|Wu Zi "Woozie" Mu]] from the administrative staff suite of [[The Four Dragons Casino]], a casino located along [[The Strip]] in [[Las Venturas]], [[San Andreas in GTA III Era|San Andreas]].


Delores is the dispatcher at Kaufman Cabs in Little Haiti, [[Vice City]] in 1986, having been with the company for a number of years.<ref name="Delores at Kaufmans">'''Delores''': "I've been doing this for years".

==Mission==
Carl, having successfully convinced [[Caligula's Palace]] croupier [[Millie Perkins]] to date him in order to obtain her keycard, is now positioned to continue preparations for the heist on the main vault of Caligula's Palace. His next step is to establish a means of temporarily cutting the power supply to Las Venturas in order to provide himself and Woozie's crew, which has now added a new member to itself in electronics expert [[Zero]], who had recently [[Key to Her Heart|supplied Carl and Wozie with a card reader]], with the cover of darkness and the resulting confusion while robbing the safe. To do this, Carl heads out to [[Sherman Dam]], which supplies Las Venturas with hydroelectric power, to plant remotely detonated explosives on the main generators. After sneaking into the dam's facilities and planting the explosives, Carl narrowly escapes capture by performing a swan-dive from one of the dam's control towers into the [[Sherman Reservoir]] outlet channel to the south.

==Trivia==
*The two eavesdroppers in this mission are the same two men in the mission [[Madd Dogg (mission)|Madd Dogg]] who cajole and taunt [[Madd Dogg]], yelling at him to jump off the building in Las Venturas he is planning to jump from. They are also seen during [[Mountain Cloud Boys (mission)|Carl's first visit to Woozie]], rooting for their respective bets in [[Wu Zi Mu's Betting Shop|the betting shop]]. One of them is the same eavesdropper from [[Liberty City]] during the [[The Introduction|Introduction]].
*Despite the game telling you that this entire mission is about stealth, it is still easily beatable should you choose to use your gun and just run in. They will be alerted at the moment, but the outcome of the mission is exactly the same regardless.
*At the end of the mission, any wanted level that one has retained prior to the ending cutscene will be retained, and could be troublesome. However, if there wasn't any, a [[Wanted Level in GTA III Era #One-star|one-star wanted level]] is automatically assigned.
