Unlocks It’s Your Call, the Broker Safehouse (saving and parking)

Take the wheel of Roman’s taxi on the docks and drive him across Broker to his apartment in Hove Beach. It is a gentle first drive with no enemies. You earn $25 and the Broker Safehouse, where you can now save.

Objectives

  1. Drive to Roman’s place.

The Cousins Bellic walkthrough

Get into Roman’s taxi

The game opens with Niko stepping off the boat and meeting Roman on the dock. When the cutscene ends you are standing next to Roman’s taxi with the objective on screen. You are driving. Roman is too drunk to take the wheel, so he rides along. Get behind the wheel and pull away from the pier. The taxi is slower off the line than most cars you will drive later, so give it a moment to build speed.

Niko and Roman meet on the dock beside the ship, with Roman's taxi door open nearby.
Roman's taxi pulls away from the pier past cranes, with the radar showing the route to the apartment.
Roman's taxi drives down a dockside street with the objective Drive to Roman's place on screen.

Drive to the apartment

A yellow blip on the radar marks Roman’s place, and a colored line on the radar traces the shortest legal route to it. Follow that line and you cannot go wrong. The game feeds you help text about steering, braking and the handbrake as you go, so take the first few turns slowly and get used to how the car leans. Roman talks the whole way, and the drive takes about two minutes.

The taxi drives through a dark Broker street while the radar help text explains the route line.
The taxi crosses a wide intersection under an elevated road with a handbrake tip on screen.
The taxi drives down a quiet avenue toward a stone arch, with the radar route ahead.

Traffic is light and nobody is chasing you. There is no wanted level to worry about, but a bad crash is the one thing that can sink the mission. The mission fails if the taxi is destroyed or flipped onto its roof, or if you leave Roman behind. Take corners wide, ease off before sharp turns and keep to the road. Pedestrians and parked cars are safe to avoid rather than ram.

The taxi brakes behind two cars at a junction under an elevated road in Hove Beach.
The taxi turns down a narrow, litter-strewn street, following the yellow route line on the radar.

Park outside the safehouse

As you reach Hove Beach, the road runs under an elevated rail line and the yellow blip sits on the curb outside a plain brick tenement on Mohawk Avenue. Pull up inside the marker and stop. A cutscene plays as Roman shows you the apartment. Do not worry about exact parking. Any stop inside the marker is enough.

The taxi slows beside the curb on Mohawk Avenue with the yellow blip ahead on the radar.
The taxi sits parked on a dark street under the elevated rail line in Hove Beach.

What fails this mission

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

  • Roman’s taxi is destroyed
  • Roman’s taxi is flipped onto its roof
  • You abandon Roman or leave his taxi behind
  • Roman dies

After the mission

The mission pays $25 and unlocks the Off The Boat achievement. The Broker Safehouse is now yours. Sleep on the bed there to save and skip six hours, and park any car in the space outside. The flashing marker on the radar shows the front door. When you are ready, head to Roman’s depot to start It’s Your Call.
