[[Tommy Vercetti]] answers the ringing [[Communication#Public_telephones|payphone]] in [[Little Havana]]. [[Mr. Black]] knows of a valuable exchange taking place on the roof of the [[Cherry Popper Ice Cream Factory]] between the [[Sharks]] gang and some men wearing black suits and sunglasses (possibly the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]]). He wants Vercetti to kill everybody involved, collect their merchandise and take it to a helipad at [[Escobar International Airport]] to be collected. He also informs Vercetti of a gate to his left that leads to the back of the factory. Vercetti enters the compound behind the factory and opens fire on several armed gunmen around the area and kills them. He manages to survive the gunfire, reach the roof of the factory, kill the Sharks gangsters and suited men involved in the deal and obtains the briefcase containing the merchandise. Using a nearby [[Maverick]], Vercetti brings the briefcase to the helipad at Escobar International Airport.

Loose Ends is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City given to protagonist Tommy Vercetti by Mr. Black from a public payphone near the Cherry Popper Ice Cream Factory in Little Havana, Vice City.

Mission

Tommy Vercetti answers the ringing payphone in Little Havana, behind the supermarket behind the Cherry Popper Ice Cream Factory. Mr. Black knows of a valuable exchange taking place on the roof of the Cherry Popper Ice Cream Factory between the Sharks gang and some men wearing black suits and sunglasses (possibly the FBI or CIA). He wants Tommy to kill everybody involved, collect their merchandise and take it to an unnamed helipad at Escobar International Airport to be collected. He also informs Tommy of a gate to his left that leads to the back of the factory. Tommy enters the compound behind the factory and opens fire on several armed gunmen around the area and kills them. He manages to survive the gunfire, reach the roof of the factory, kill the Sharks gangsters and suited men involved in the deal and obtains the briefcase containing the merchandise. Using the nearby Maverick parked on the roof, Tommy brings the briefcase to the helipad at Escobar International Airport.

Script

Mr. Black: There is a valuable exchange taking place on the roof of the Cherry Popper Ice Cream Company. Kill everyone involved, steal the merchandise and take it to the helipad at the airport. There is a gate to your left that leads to the back of the factory.

Reward

The reward for completing the mission is $16,000.

Trivia

  • Two unique black Admirals and a unique black colored Pony can be obtained during this mission. They are located inside the Little Havana compound where the player must fight his way past gunmen to collect some merchandise; however, the vehicles cannot be normally driven away out of the compound, as the only gate large enough for the car to leave is only half-opened. To go around this problem the player will need to obtain two Packers, using one Packer to boost the second Packer over the gate, so the second Packer can be used to ramp the Admiral(s) or Pony out of the compound.
  • Loose Ends is the only mission in which Mr. Black does not refer to Tommy Vercetti as "Mr. Teal". Similarly, it is also the only mission in which he does not leave Tommy instructions under the payphone.
  • In the mission, Mr. Black incorrectly calls the Cherry Popper Ice Cream Factory the Cherry Popper Ice Cream Company. Although these two names sound similar, they are not to be confused with each other: The Cherry Popper Ice Cream Company is an ice cream and drugs distribution company in Vice City while the Cherry Popper Ice Cream Factory is the asset and factory in which the Cherry Popper Ice Cream Company is based.
