Mission walkthrough

Getting the helicopter

As Trevor, go to the Mission Row Police Station, walk to the front desk and then up to the roof. Get in the Police Maverick. If you start as Franklin, you’re already waiting in the lot when it arrives.

Scanning the crowds

You control the camera while the pilot flies. Scan Franklin first to try it out. Over Hawick, point the camera at each marked person to read their license details, and hold it steady. None of the first four is Chad, so scan the second group. One of the six is him, and you can listen to what people are saying while you do it.

Following the car

Chad gets in the Z-Type and takes off. Keep the car in frame so you can guide Franklin. He hides in a parking garage, and the camera switches to thermal. Pick out the heat signatures. Franklin is the first, and Chad is the one at the far left.

Delivering the Z-Type

Control goes to Franklin. Decide what to do about Chad, take the car and drive it to the hangar at the airport. If you leave Chad alive, the police may be called, so watch out for them on the way.

Gold Medal requirements

Chad is the leftmost heat signature on the thermal camera, so pick him first. Listen in on three conversations, and drive the Z-Type carefully. Any damage will lose the medal, and Chad can alert the police if you leave him alive.
