Clean Getaway is a mission in Grand Theft Auto IV given to protagonist Niko Bellic by Vladimir Glebov from Comrades Bar in Hove Beach, Broker, Liberty City.

Mission

Niko arrives at Comrades Bar, where Vlad gets up and tells Niko to come walk with him. As Niko and Vlad walk through the streets of Hove Beach, Vlad shoves and shouts at pedestrians. He speaks about Roman owing him money and that he has work for Niko to help pay his debt. As they are walking, Jerry Kapowitz, a local tramp, asks Vlad and Niko for some change. Vlad becomes irrate and kicks at Jerry shouting as he does. He also mentions Mikhail Faustin and speaks about the quality of his coke, which Vlad snorts as soon as they get into his blue Marbelle. Vlad explains to Niko that there is a Blista Compact parked at the East Island City projects in Dukes that he wants Niko to take and bring to his lockup. He tells Niko he has to take the subway, because he's going to meet up with somebody and can't have a peasant in his car.

Niko takes the train from Hove Beach station to Dukes Boulevard station and makes his way to the Blista Compact. The owner of the car, Jimmy, is washing it as Niko approaches. After a short confrontation Niko knocks out Jimmy and his partner, and then takes the car.

Once in the car, Niko calls Vlad, telling him that the car is dirty. Vlad then tells Niko to take the car to a car wash nearby, then take it to his lockup. Niko gets the car washed, and delivers it to Vlad's lockup, after which he calls Vlad to inform him.

Reward

The player gets $150. In addition, car washes are available for use.

Trivia

  • Curiously, the train you ride as part of this mission drops you off at the Dukes Boulevard station, which is supposedly closed for maintenance. At no other point in the game will a subway train stop at or even pass through this station. Neither will the player see the train actually stopping at the station, as the game cuts off from the cinematic sequence of the train moving towards Schottler station and switches to the player simply being at the station.
  • While the game prompts the player to head to the Hove Beach station, it is actually not necessary to take the train; alternatively, players may simply drive or take a taxi to the EIC projects, to which point the game will pinpoint the location of the car. However, as the game does not originally point out where the Blista Compact is parked, first-time players may not know of the car's location and will naturally take the train instead.
  • The mission is one of the only parts of the game where the stun punch works. The player can also punch the bouncers at Perestroika with the stun punch.
  • If the player fails to stun Jimmy using a stun punch, both Jimmy and his accomplice will become aggressive and attempt to duke it out with the player.
