555 We Tip walkthrough

Tenpenny’s call

CJ is alone in the garage when Tenpenny rings. He wants a district attorney framed with drugs and tells CJ to use the weed he bought from The Truth. CJ refuses to snitch until he hears the target is a government employee. When the call ends, take a car and head for the Vank Hoff Hotel in Financial, downtown.

The valet in the car park

Park near the hotel and watch for the valet who takes a car down the ramp. Follow him into the underground car park on foot and wait until nobody is around. Kill him quietly, because a wanted level now will end the mission. Walk over the body to pick up the valet uniform, which you wear for the rest of the job.

Wait with the valets

Go back up to the valet stand and join the line. The other valets treat you as a new colleague. You are told the D.A. drives a blue Merit, so watch for it. Other cars arrive first, and you must not let anybody else take the Merit. Stay put and do not shoot. When the blue car pulls in, step up and take it.

Plant the weed

Drive the Merit to your garage in Doherty before the timer expires, which gives you a little under three minutes. Drive into the garage to plant the weed. Do not respray it or let it take damage, as the D.A. will notice. Take the same route back, using main roads and avoiding walls and other cars.

Park it and call

Return to the hotel and take the Merit down to the underground car park. Park it in the marked space, keeping the car unscratched. Then walk out to the street and use the phone to call the We Tip line. The police arrive, search the car and find the weed in the trunk. Watch the cutscene to finish.

What fails this mission

Besides dying or being arrested, the mission ends if any of these happen:

  • The Merit is destroyed, damaged or resprayed
  • You earn a wanted level after reaching the hotel
  • The timer runs out
  • The D.A. or the valet outside is killed
  • Another valet takes the Merit
  • You change out of the valet uniform

After the mission

No cash is paid, but the valet uniform is yours to wear and Deconstruction opens, along with the Valet side missions.
