Jive Drive

Location
Escobar International Airport, Vice City Mainland

Vic goes to the airport to meet his brother Lance, who has just arrived in town. Gang members catch them on the way out, and you have to shoot back from the passenger seat while Lance drives.

Before you start

This is a shooting mission with no pay. Lance drives for most of the mission, so you cannot steer.

Objectives

  1. Fight off those attackers while Lance drives.
  2. Kill those remaining attackers. Lance must survive.
  3. Take Lance to his hotel.

Meeting Lance

Go to the marker outside Escobar International Airport. Lance greets Vic, and the two have an uncomfortable reunion. Lance says he has changed, and Vic reluctantly agrees to give him one chance. Get in the car as the cutscene ends.

Fighting off the attackers

A car cuts in front of you and Cholos threaten Vic, and Lance takes off. You control Vic’s aim only. A help box explains how to aim with the left analog stick and fire. Shoot the cars and men marked by arrows. Aim at the closest first, since they are the ones doing the damage.

Through Little Havana

Lance takes a shortcut and drives straight into more trouble, with armed men on the street and in cars. Keep checking the radar for each new group. Expect Lance to jump a ramp or two, and keep firing while you are in the air.

The last few

After the last jump the car is wrecked, and Lance and Vic argue. A message tells you to kill the remaining attackers, and Lance must survive. Now you are on foot with Lance nearby, so keep him out of the line of fire. Deal with every attacker you can see. When the last one is down, you are told to take Lance to his hotel.

To the hotel

Take a nearby car and drive to the hotel marker downtown. The police are after you, so keep an eye on your wanted level. At the hotel, Vic remarks that the place is not cheap, and Lance says he has told them to bill Vic.

What fails this mission

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

  • Lance dies.
  • The Stinger is destroyed.

After the mission

There is no cash reward. Hose the Hoes and Nice Package are now open, and a help box explains the partial empire icon, which marks a damaged site with reduced income.
