Three’s a Crowd walkthrough

Take the taxi to the subway station

Roman texts you to come back to the depot. Head inside and a cutscene plays. When it ends you are outside next to Roman’s taxi. Walk up to it and get in. The objective sends you to Hove Beach Station, shown by a yellow blip on the radar.

The route is short and mostly straight, along streets under the elevated tracks. Keep the route line on the radar in view and brake early for corners. The game offers tips about changing the radio, which you can ignore. Your passengers are not on board yet, so a few bumps cost nothing, but wrecking the taxi still fails the mission.

Pick up Mallorie and Michelle

Pull up beside the station entrance. Two women wait on the sidewalk, one of them Roman’s girlfriend Mallorie. Stop close to the curb inside the yellow marker and sound the horn to get their attention. They climb into the back seat on their own. Do not leave the car or walk over to them, because they treat you like a stranger if you do.

The taxi stops near the Hove Beach station sign, with two women on the sidewalk and a yellow marker ahead.

Drive them to Michelle’s apartment

A new objective marks Michelle’s apartment with a yellow blip. Drive there smoothly. Mallorie and Michelle talk to each other and to you the whole way, and they suggest you take Michelle out sometime and buy better clothes. Crashing hard, wrecking the taxi or abandoning the car with them in it fails the mission, so take your time and let the traffic go first.

The taxi drives along a tree-lined street in Rotterdam Hill with the route on the radar.

Stop inside the marker outside the apartment. The women get out and say goodbye, and the cutscene ends. If you were wanted by the police on the way, the stars clear once you drop them off. You are on your own again afterward, so the taxi is free to drive.

The taxi turns a corner on Dillon Street near the end of the ride.

Phone Roman and go shopping

Niko calls Roman on his own once the women are gone. After a short chat, the objective sends you to a clothes shop on Mohawk Avenue in Hove Beach, marked by a yellow blip. Drive down Mohawk and look for the shop with red sale posters in the window. Park near the door and walk inside.

The taxi stops at a crossing with a phone call to Roman showing on the phone screen.

Buy new clothes

Inside, the game explains that you can buy clothes from shops all over Liberty City. Walk up to any rack and pick an item. The mission ends the moment a purchase goes through. You have $55 to spend, and a jacket costs about $26, so you can afford one. Do not attack the shop assistant, since that fails the mission.

What fails this mission

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

  • Mallorie or Michelle is injured or killed
  • Roman’s taxi is destroyed
  • You abandon the taxi, or get it stuck, with the women inside
  • You injure the shop assistant

After the mission

The mission pays no cash. It opens the clothing shops and adds First Date and Bleed Out to your list. Michelle’s number is now in your phone, and what you wear is yours to change. Head back to the depot when you are ready for the next job.
