The Shootist is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City given to protagonist Tommy Vercetti for the Malibu Club in Vice Point, Vice City as an asset mission.

Mission

Tommy Vercetti, having recruited a safe cracker for his planned bank robbery, informs Ken Rosenberg and Cam Jones that he needs somebody who knows how to use a gun. Jones recommends gun runner Phil Cassidy, saying he is the best in the city. Vercetti follows Jones' recommendation and meets Cassidy at a shooting range at the Ammu-Nation store in Downtown.

Vercetti offers Cassidy a place on his team, although Cassidy responds that he would only join if Vercetti can prove himself with firearms. Vercetti then takes part in a shooting range challenge, initially involving Cassidy and an un-named citizen. Vercetti first shoots at three dumies suspended from the ceilings, moving left to right, shooting at the dummy to break parts off. Vercetti then enters a second and third phase where he walks through a series of indoor streets and shoots cardboard frames holding guns in windows and doorways, as well as ones that appear in front of him.

Vercetti, having acquired a total of at least sixty points during the three challenges, successfully persuades Cassidy to join him as his gun man for the bank robbery.

Script

Tommy Vercetti: We need a stick up man. You know one?

Ken Rosenberg: Hey, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy. This stuff keeps you sharp, man. WooOOOooo! I could be your stick up man! Stick 'em up! Stick 'em up!

Tommy Vercetti: You ain't a stick up man, you're an idiot! Now get yourself a drink and shut up.

Ken Rosenberg: Hey, get out of my way! Yeh, yeh, yeh - ow ow ow!

Cam Jones: Relax.

Tommy Vercetti: Cam, what do you think?

Cam Jones: Well, the best shooter in this town is a guy named Phil Cassidy.

Tommy Vercetti: Is that so?

Cam Jones: Yeah. A military guy, or he thinks he is. I doubt he was ever in the army, but he certainly knows how to get a hold of guns. He'll be down at the shooting range.

(Tommy meeting Phil at the range)

Tommy Vercetti: You Phil Cassidy?

Phil Cassidy: Why?

Tommy Vercetti: I'm looking for a man who can handle a gun. From this set-up, I'm not too convinced.

Phil Cassidy: Son, I could shoot a fly off your head at 80 feet.

Tommy Vercetti: Oh really?

Phil Cassidy: Yeah, I learnt in the army.

Tommy Vercetti: Fly shooting really popular in the army? Glad I don't pay taxes.

Phil Cassidy: You tryin' to be funny, kid? Ha ha ha ha! Let's shoooot!

(Tommy asking Phil a favor after completing the shooting range challenge)

Tommy Vercetti: So do you wanna do me a favor, and help me put together a job?

Phil Cassidy: Son, after shooting like that, if you asked me to be your wife, I'd say yes!
