Objectives

  1. Go to the Bugstars warehouse in South Los Santos.
  2. Steal a Bugstars van.
  3. Deliver the van to the garment factory.

Mission walkthrough

Drive to the Bugstars warehouse at the port. There are two ways in. Walking in the front makes the staff aggressive, and pulling a gun makes them run and brings two stars.

Michael walks toward the open front bay of the Bugstars warehouse, where red-suited workers stand inside.

The quieter option is to go around the back in stealth, knock out the worker by the central van, and drive straight out the rear. A suppressed headshot works too. Deliver the van to the drop-off Lester gives you. Lester then calls about the gas grenades, which is your next setup.

What fails this mission

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

  • The Bugstars vans were undrivable.
  • Michael abandoned the mission.
  • The Bugstars van was destroyed.
  • Michael abandoned the Bugstars van.
  • The Bugstars van got stuck.

Gold Medal requirements

Come in from the back in stealth, knock out the driver of the central van, and leave the same way. Do not drive too close to the other staff, because they can hear the engine.
