Mission walkthrough

Walking to the van

Follow Lamar and Chop on foot. There’s no marker, so stay with them, and don’t get into any trouble with the police. Get in the van, wait for Lamar to load Chop and drive to the alley off Vinewood Boulevard.

Chasing D

After the scene, D escapes on a Bati and you chase him in the van. You can’t overtake him or knock him off, so just stay with him through Simmet Alley. A bus takes him out near the Dashound Bus Center in La Mesa, and the chase continues on foot. Watch for moving buses at the terminal.

Finding him with Chop

D hides in the Mirror Park rail yard. Follow Chop and open the boxcars he stops at. The first two are empty. Chop then gets distracted by another dog, so walk over and pull him away. Three more boxcars follow, and D is in the one Chop barks at, which is the northernmost. Chop brings him down when he runs.

Letting him go

Get D in the van and start driving to Lamar’s house. Lamar calls in a ransom on his cell, and Franklin decides that’s a bad idea. Stop the van when asked so D can get out. If you refuse, you pick up a two-star wanted level. Drop Lamar and Chop at the recreation center to finish. Chop moves to Franklin’s house afterwards, which makes the walk and fetch task possible.

Franklin loads a man into the back of the white van at the rail yard gate, saying Watch him.
