Uncle Vlad is a mission in Grand Theft Auto IV.

Overview

After Niko (the main character) and his cousin Roman discover that Vladimir Glebov (the local Russian criminal) is stealing Roman's girlfriend, Niko forces Roman to go with him to kill Vlad. Roman believes this is a bad idea because Vlad's boss may assasinate Niko and Roman.

Niko and Roman drive to Vlad's bar. Niko confronts Vlad, who runs away at the back door of the bar and leaves Niko to be killed by his two goons. Niko kills the goons and chases Vlad, but quite frankly Vlad escapes in a car. Niko gets into his own car and chases Vlad to the shore of the Humboldt River, where he kills Glebov point blank.

Roman escapes to a dumpster in Broker (on Tulsa Street) after the death of Vlad because he thinks it's a good hiding spot from Mikhail Faustin, Vlad's boss.

Walkthrough

Roman becomes aware that Mallorie has been secretly going on dates with Vlad. Naturally he's upset, and Niko wants to go to the Comrades Bar and deal with him directly. Roman thinks Niko is crazy because he thinks that Vlad's men will get him and Niko into a lot of danger. Go with Roman to look for Vlad at the Comrades Bar

It is a good idea to drive to Roman's cab depot in a fast car when you go to receive this mission, as you will likely need it. Either a very fast car or one with very good handling is recommended for this mission, and for that matter all missions that involve a car chase.

Once the cutscene is over, either get into your fast car or the Roman's Taxi which now appears in the garage (and which will serve nicely if you don't have something else). Drive to the Comrades Bar to confront Vlad.

Vlad runs out the back door. Take out his goons - if you picked up a shotgun in Concrete Jungle this is an ideal environment for it, or alternatively just push past them- then follow him out the back. Try not to have the shotgun armed while running, as you'll go slower.

Not that it matters much; Vlad had a getaway car stowed around back, and now he takes off. Get into your own car and chase him down.

Follow Vlad as he winds through the streets of Hove Beach. Once he gets to the docks, Vlad will crash his car and run away. The chase stops because the river in front of Vlad blocks him from escaping any further. Niko orders Roman to stay. Get your pistol out and confront Vlad Glebov.

After the cutscene, you're prompted to execute and kill Vlad. Executions are when you target in-mission characters with a pistol and the reticule flashes red. If you shoot, you will see an amazing death scene. However, you don't have to execute him - you can free-aim and kill him that way.

Enjoy the long cutscene that shows up that concludes the mission. Take a moment to look at the river.

You win a XBox trophy/PS3 achievement: Fed the Fish.
