The '''Jester''' is a two-door sports car in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]] and [[Grand Theft Auto V]].
'''Highjack''' is a mission in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], given to [[protagonist]] [[Carl Johnson|Carl "CJ" Johnson]] by undercover government agent [[Mike Toreno|Michael "Mike" Toreno]] from his [[Mike Toreno's Ranch|ranch]] in [[Tierra Robada]], [[San Andreas in GTA III Era|San Andreas]].


== Description ==
==Mission==
=== Design ===
Carl is waiting for the mysterious person he [[Monster (mission)|encountered earlier through an unknown voice]] to arrive, when this man, who is revealed to be Toreno, marches from the back and surprises Carl, explaining who he is and what he's here for. Carl apologises for what he has done, but Toreno tells him to calm down. He needs Carl to do jobs which he can't be caught doing. The first one is to commandeer a truck. He says it's a two-man job, and Carl would need someone to help him out, so Toreno reveals he has mysteriously used Carl's identity to call for brother-in-law-in-courtship [[Cesar Vialpando]] to come over, and leaves Carl after warning him of his omnipresence.
==== GTA San Andreas ====
Designed as a two-door sports coupe, the Jester is based on the 1993-2002 [[wp:Toyota Supra|Toyota Supra]], although GTA San Andreas was set in [[1992]], and the vehicle's front end is elongated. It also bears a resemblance (and probably based on) to the [[:wp:Ferrari 348|Ferrari 348]], which was sold during from 1989-1995. As it is considered a tuner, it can only be modified at [[Wheel Arch Angels]]. It feels and sounds as if powered by a V6.


==== GTA V ====
After a small talk, Carl and Cesar hop on a motorbike and heads for a [[Tanker|truck]] moving along the freeway in [[San Fierro]], just across the [[Garver Bridge]]. While heading there, Carl tells Cesar the plan, which makes Cesar a bit nervous, as "Carl" did not mention that on the phone.
Released as part of the [[Business Update]], the Jester, manufactured by [[Dinka]], is heavily based on the [[wp:Acura NSX (2015)|2015 Honda/Acura NSX concept]]. The headlights resemble those of [[wp:Honda Civic (ninth generation)|ninth generation Honda Civics]], and to an extent, the car bears some similarities to the [[wp:BMW i8|BMW i8]]. The taillights are similar to those of the [[wp:Aston Martin One-77|Aston Martin One-77]] (which also form the basis of the NSX's taillights), albeit compressed.

Once they have reached the truck, Carl steers the motorbike, matching the truck's speed, while Cesar is preparing to hop on it. He eventually hops on board and jacks the vehicle. Carl then hops on board, and takes the truck back to the [[Doherty Garage|garage]] in [[Doherty]].

== Performance ==
'''CJ''': What an asshole!
=== GTA San Andreas ===
Unlike the Supra, the Jester in GTA San Andreas is front-wheel-drive, yet retains its sporty qualities. In acceleration, speed, handling, and braking, the Jester is inferior to most other sports cars and tuners in the game, superior only to the [[Euros]]. However, the vehicle still possesses good grip and braking, ideal for sharp cornering using the brake or handbrake.


=== GTA V ===
==Trivia==
With a large power output, the Jester features a good top speed and acceleration, comparable to other sports cars in its class. Being based on a Japanese sports car, the Jester has a very sensitive and responsive steering. As it is agile, it can perform skillful and quick moves if used correctly. However, the Jester tends to be drift-happy if driven on dirt roads. Crash deformation is good, and the Jester can survive multiple front end hits without deforming the front wheels. Without special abilites and modifications, the Jester has a rather low top speed of 113 mph (182 km/h). With special abilities and modifications, the Jester can reach 180 mph (290 km/h).
*Since the post-mission phone call sounds like an order to return to the ranch, it makes sense for Carl to alternate between the ranch and the [[Doherty Garage]], so that there is ample time to finish other missions. Hence, the correct order of playing the [[Tierra Robada]] and [[Wang Cars]] mission strands would be:-


== Modifications ==
1. [[Monster (mission)|Monster]] ---- 2. [[Zeroing In]] ---- 3. [[Highjack]] ---- 4. [[Test Drive]] ---- 5. [[Interdiction]] ---- 6. [[Customs Fast Track]]
[[File:Jester-GTASA-modified-front.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Possible combinations of modifications that can be given to Jester's at [[Wheel Arch Angels]] in GTA San Andreas.]]
The Jester can only be modified at Wheel Arch Angels in [[Ocean Flats]], [[San Fierro]].
* Colors
* Spoilers
* Rear Bumper
* Front Bumper
* Side Skirts
* Wheels
* Nitro


== Trivia==
However, for doing so, it is important that the post-mission phone call be avoided till the time the player finishes [[Test Drive]].
* A model car called "Jester Crossflow" that resembles a tuned Jester can be found in the [[Zero RC]] shop in San Fierro.
* When doing the mission [[Customs Fast Track]], you deliver the cars to the [[Doherty Garage]], and and of the previous vehicles which have been delivered have been showed in the [[Wang Cars]] showroom, however, this vehicle never appears. Instead, a [[Savanna]] does.
* The Jester features the following default radio stations when entered:
** [[CSR 103.9]] (GTA San Andreas)
** [[The Lowdown 91.1]] or [[Space 103.2]] (GTA V)
* In [[Content Changes in GTA San Andreas|early versions]] of the game, the Jester had a different front design.<ref>[http://www.gtasanandreas.net/screenshots/gallery.php?image=43 Beta Jester]</ref>
* The Jester was to appear in [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories|GTA Liberty City Stories]] but was cut for unknown reasons.
* The exhaust pipes will stay stock if you buy aftermarket ones at the Wheel Arch Angels.

Highjack is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, given to protagonist Carl "CJ" Johnson by undercover government agent Michael "Mike" Toreno from his ranch in Tierra Robada, San Andreas.

Mission

Carl is waiting for the mysterious person he encountered earlier through an unknown voice to arrive, when this man, who is revealed to be Toreno, marches from the back and surprises Carl, explaining who he is and what he's here for. Carl apologises for what he has done, but Toreno tells him to calm down. He needs Carl to do jobs which he can't be caught doing. The first one is to commandeer a truck. He says it's a two-man job, and Carl would need someone to help him out, so Toreno reveals he has mysteriously used Carl's identity to call for brother-in-law-in-courtship Cesar Vialpando to come over, and leaves Carl after warning him of his omnipresence.

After a small talk, Carl and Cesar hop on a motorbike and heads for a truck moving along the freeway in San Fierro, just across the Garver Bridge. While heading there, Carl tells Cesar the plan, which makes Cesar a bit nervous, as "Carl" did not mention that on the phone.

Once they have reached the truck, Carl steers the motorbike, matching the truck's speed, while Cesar is preparing to hop on it. He eventually hops on board and jacks the vehicle. Carl then hops on board, and takes the truck back to the garage in Doherty.

Script

(Carl is roaming about the ranch when he is suddenly patted on the shoulder by someone, revealed to be government agent Michael "Mike" Toreno, formerly a leader de mysterio to the now defunct Loco Syndicate.)

Toreno: Hey, Carl.

CJ: (backs off upon being tapped on) Hey, what the fuck, man! (sees Toreno and starts panicking) Hey, Toreno, I told you my bad, man. What the hell can I say? I screwed you over.

Toreno: Calm down, kid.

CJ: Just go ahead and kill me then.

Toreno: Calm down!

CJ: Man, you ain't nothin' but a fucking yayo dealer anyway, Toreno.

Toreno: (pushes him to sit on the stairs) Shut up and sit down! What, you think I'm a drug dealer? You think you're a crusader for good? Do you have any idea what's going on? Any idea whatsoever? Do you? DO YOU?

CJ: No. I pay as little attention to things as possible.

Toreno: Do not be a fucking smartass with me. I work for a government agency. It is not important which one. I will try not to confuse you. Yes, when we last met, I was involved in battling threats in Latin America, BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. That does not make me a drug dealer. Now, the money that we raised, the friends that we won over, have helped us immeasurably in our overseas interests.

CJ: Government agency?

Toreno: Kids like you. You expect heroes. We're fighting a war out there. I'll be a hero and I'll lose, and what'll we have? Communism in Ohio. People sharing. Nobody buying stuff. That kind of bullshit. So relax, and listen.

CJ: Alright, alright, I'm listening.

Toreno: I know what kind of guy you are. I need a guy like you. To do things I can't get caught doing.

CJ: Like what?

Toreno: I need you to commandeer a truck. A rival agency, with a confused social agenda. They got things that we need. Now this is a two-man job. You'll need a friend. Use your sister's boyfriend, but don't tell him a thing. Remember, I'll be watching you.

(Toreno walks off after explaining as Carl looks on, standing up. Sometime later, brother-in-law-in-courtship Cesar Vialpando arrives with his Savanna parked nearby.)

Cesar: I got here as fast as I could, CJ!

CJ: Yeah, you sure did. How you know I needed help?

Cesar: Man, you losing it holmes! You phoned me a half hour ago, man!

CJ: I did? I mean, oh yeah, I did. Sorry man, I got a whole lot on my mind.

(Carl and Cesar hop on the bike, headed to the freeway.)

CJ: We need to 'jack a truck on the freeway. It's headed to San Fierro.

(As they are approaching Robada Intersection, Cesar speaks.)

Cesar: We can get on the freeway here, holmes!

(While driving along the freeway, they discuss the action plan.)

Cesar: What's the plan?

Carl Johnson: I'm gonna pull alongside and you're gonna hop on board!

Cesar: Oh shit, you did not mention that on the phone!

Carl Johnson: It'll be a walk in the park!

Cesar: Tell Kendl I love her!

CJ: (as they sight the truck) There's the rig up ahead.

(Cesar prepares to hop on board.)

Cesar: Just a little closer, holmes!

(Cesar urges Carl to drive faster.)

Cesar: Match the truck's speed!

(Cesar urges Carl to move close.)

Cesar Vialpando: What do you think, I'm a Mexican jumping bean? Closer! (once they hijack the truck) OK, CJ, let's get this rig back to the garage!

Reward

The reward for this mission is $7,000. The mission "Interdiction" is unlocked after a post-mission phone call from Toreno instructing the player to meet him.

Post-mission Phone Call

Toreno: Here, now! Don't screw around.

CJ: What an asshole!

Trivia

  • Since the post-mission phone call sounds like an order to return to the ranch, it makes sense for Carl to alternate between the ranch and the Doherty Garage, so that there is ample time to finish other missions. Hence, the correct order of playing the Tierra Robada and Wang Cars mission strands would be:-

1. Monster ---- 2. Zeroing In ---- 3. Highjack ---- 4. Test Drive ---- 5. Interdiction ---- 6. Customs Fast Track

However, for doing so, it is important that the post-mission phone call be avoided till the time the player finishes Test Drive.
