Reward

A pager message points you to a parked car in Northeast Battersea. It is packed with Thunderthighs dolls for the birthday of Harold’s nephew, and you have to get them to his place in Central Angel against the clock.

Before you start

The timer is 50 seconds, so work out the way from Battersea to Angel before you take the car.

Look after the Fab. Destroying it fails the job.

Objectives

  1. The pager says there is a car parked somewhere in Northeast Battersea.
  2. Deliver the Thunderthighs dolls to Ashley’s place in Central Angel (50 seconds).

Find the Fab

A message tells you there is a car parked somewhere in Northeast Battersea. Drive to that area and search the yards between the warehouses for a pink Fab. Getting into it starts the mission and the clock, so be sure of your route first.

Deliver the dolls

A message explains that the car is filled with Thunderthighs dolls and that Harold’s nephew is having his birthday. You get 50 seconds to bring them to Ashley’s place in Central Angel. Stick to the wide main roads, keep the Fab out of traffic, and do not stop for anyone. A wreck ends the job at once.

What fails this mission

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

  • the Fab is destroyed
  • the timer runs out

After the mission

The dolls arrive on time. Harold’s pager says the nephew will be delighted, and the job pays out. Your score multiplier goes up by one.
