	Lance also becomes addicted to his own cocaine, as does Vic's girlfriend [[Louise Cassidy-Williams]] who both hide their habit from Vic. Lance often blamed the missing drugs on their addict mother (which did happen to be true) or a biker gang. When Vic discovers Lance and Louise getting high, he accuses them of an affair, which they respond that they only get high as friends and Lance becomes angry with Vic after Louise storms out of the house.

When Vic discovers Lance and Louise getting high, he accuses them of an affair, which they respond that they only get high as friends and Lance becomes angry with Vic after Louise storms out of the house.

	When Louise is kidnapped and killed by the Mendez brothers (who they briefly attempted to make peace with before a second war), Lance shows little feelings for her and tries to console Vic by saying family is more important (namely himself). He only becomes involved with the Mendez war after his car gets blown up. At the end of the game, Lance arrives at the Mendez penthouse to back up Vic, but he arrives after the shootout is already over. Vic, however, is too ecstatic after his victory, and after briefly reminding Lance not to sell any more drugs, leaves Vice City with him by helicopter.

The two end up laying low in [[Panama]] and sit on two keys of cocaine until they lose any unwanted heat. Meanwhile the Vance Crime Family slowly begins to diminish in Vice City.

	In GTA ~~Vice~~ City~~'s opening [[cutscene~~]], Lance flies Victor to a cocaine deal with [[~~Sonny~~ Forelli~~\|Sonny Forelli's~~]] ~~men when~~ Victor ~~is shot~~ by ~~a third party~~ ambushing the deal. Lance, still in the helicopter, flies away unscathed.		Two years later the Vance brothers finally decide to get back into the game when they come in contact with the [[Don]] of the [[Forelli Family\|Forelli Crime Family]], [[Sonny Forelli]] in [[Liberty City in GTA III Era\|Liberty City]]. Against his better judgement, Vic ends up joining Lance in the deal. Lance flies with Victor to the cocaine deal with recently released mobster [[Tommy Vercetti]], and Forelli members [[Harry]] and [[Lee]]. Just as the deal is concluded, Victor, Harry and Lee are gunned down by [[Diaz' Hitmen\|three hitmen]] ambushing the deal. Lance, still in the helicopter, flies away unscathed, while Tommy had managed to dive into the window of his [[Ken Rosenberg\|lawyer's]] car and escape unharmed as well.

	Lance meets [[Tommy ~~Vercetti]], the surviving Forelli mobster from the deal~~, when he kills [[Leo Teal]] ~~(a cook/hitman~~ who knew something about the deal, ~~silenced when Tommy beat~~ him to death). They agree to help each other get revenge, though Tommy is slow to accept Lance, who tells him to drop the "lonely tough guy crap".		Lance meets Tommy a couple days later, when Tommy kills a cook/hitman named [[Leo Teal]] who knew something about the deal, by beating him to death for his phone. They agree to help each other get revenge, though Tommy is slow to accept Lance, who tells him to drop the "lonely tough guy crap".

	Lance on the surface appears cool and collected, but is very impulsive. His quest for vengeance against [[Ricardo Diaz]], the boss who betrayed them even after their friendship in 1984, results in his capture and torture by Diaz's men, and he is only saved in the nick of time by Tommy. Lance redeems himself by supplying them with M4 Carbines, and attacks Diaz's mansion to finish him off and take over his gang. Lance personally shoots Diaz in the head with a pistol, shouting "This is for my brother!"		Lance on the surface appears cool and collected, but is very impulsive.
