Kendl has had enough of the construction workers who keep harassing her behind the garage. CJ takes a bulldozer to their site, flattens every portable cabin and then buries the foreman in his toilet under a load of cement.

Before you start

Come with full health and armor, since the site workers are armed.

Rockets or satchel charges help if you lose time with the bulldozer.

Objectives

  1. Scare off the construction firm.
  2. Destroy all the portables and kill the foreman.
  3. Destroy all the portables before the cops arrive.
  4. Push the mobile toilet into the ditch.
  5. Get in a cement truck.
  6. Back into position in front of the hole.

Deconstruction walkthrough

Kendl’s complaint

In the garage, Kendl storms in and tells CJ that the construction workers behind the building keep treating her like a prostitute. Cesar offers to deal with them, but CJ stops him. Walk up the hill behind the garage to the construction yard. Kill the armed workers who spot you before you head for the machines.

Get a bulldozer

A timer begins and the cops will arrive when it runs out. Climb into the bulldozer parked in the yard, since the blade smashes a cabin in one pass. Rockets work too, but the bulldozer is quickest.

Flatten the portables

There are six cabins spread over the yard, and the game counts them down on screen. Drive straight through each one, then turn to reach the next. Work around the yard in a loop so you never double back. A few workers will fire at the bulldozer, but you can ignore them and keep your speed up until the last cabin falls.

Bury the foreman

The foreman hides in his portable toilet. Use the bulldozer to push the toilet into the ditch. It is heavy and moves slowly, so line up behind it and keep pushing forward. After it drops in, climb into the cement truck waiting nearby. Keep the foreman in view and watch his shouting.

Fill the hole

Drive the cement truck to the ditch and reverse into position with the back facing the hole. The game prompts you when you are in place. Stay there and let the mixer pour the cement, and take your time lining up. When the ditch is full, the mission is complete.

What fails this mission

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

  • The timer runs out and the cops arrive
  • You take too long to bury the foreman
  • The foreman’s toilet ends up in the water

After the mission
