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

Mission

Tommy answers the ringing 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 FBI). 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 Maverick nearby, 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

  • The Loose Ends level in the game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 possibly could be named after this, as in both of them required to get something then escape via helicopter.
  • Three unique blackAdmirals and a unique black coloured 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 half-opened. There is a simple solution 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.
  • This mission is the only Mr. Black mission where he does not refer to Tommy as "Mr. Teal".
  • Similarily, this is the only Mr. Black mission where no instructions are taped under the phone for Tommy to read.
