Spoiler Warning: Plot and/or ending details are in the text which follows. |
Brief
The leader of the Streetwannabees has been stealing 3% of Diaz's income, and he doesn't like that! He wants you to go to the guy's apartment, and then follow him to where he's stashing the money.
The Mission
You've got a new boss in the form of Diaz - follow the D on your map to Starfish Island, and his palatial estate. Someone's screwing him out of 3%, and it's up to you to find out where the cash is stashed. Follow the pink marker, pilfering Diaz's [[Infernus] if the whim takes you, until you reach the thief's apartment block. Check the window when prompted, then run after him to the roof. It's a good idea to scout this route before activating the last checkpoint, to make sure where all ramps and planks are, but it's entirely optional. There's a puny Faggio waiting for you at the end, and sadly you can't park your car in advance, because when you get back to this spot it will disappear. Basically he runs across the rooftops, stopping to shooting the barrels about third quarter of the way along (tread carefully to avoid being set on fire), then he jumps off at the end, gets in his BF Injection and you need to chase him all the way to a big house in Prawn Island. Stay far enough back so that you're out of range of his rifle, but don't lose tck of him. All you have to do is to wait for him until he runs inside to pick up Diaz's money.
HINT: To obtain the AK-47 (even if the mission is complete), go after the BF Injection, driven by a Sharks gang, and perform a drive-by (if you have a sub-machine gun with plenty of ammunition) to stop the gang right in his tracks. When he gets out, shoot him quickly before he can open fire at you. Once he dies, he will drop his AK-47 and a lot of money from the ground.
Script
(Diaz's Mansion, Tommy Vercetti and Ricardo Diaz)
Ricardo Diaz: Come on, baby, go! Yeah! Yeah! Arrrr! Stupid Horse! I'll chop your head off! Grrrr...Who is this dickhead?
Tommy Vercetti: Tommy Vercetti. You remember me.
Diaz: Excuse me. I'm a little anxious. Never trust a goddamn horse! You do a good job - you work for me now.
Tommy: I work for money.
Diaz: As I said, amigo. You work for me now.
Tommy: I work...
Diaz: Shut up! Some Judas has betrayed me. He thinks I don't know how much money I should be making, but stealing 3% is as good as stealing 100%. No one does this to me. NO ONE. You follow him from his apartement and you see where he goes! Later, we kill him.
(Starfish Island, Tommy.)
Tommy: This asshole thinks he can mess with me? If this is the best Vice City has to offer, this is gonna be easy.
(The thief's apartment, The Thief)
The Thief: Ooh, shit!

The Thief: Loser! Too slow, grandad!
Tommy: You better keep running asshole.
