Mission walkthrough

In the bank

Get in the van and drive to Paleto Bay. Drop Franklin at the pier, then park by the bank door. Go in with Trevor and the gunman. Trevor shoots out the camera, the gunman works on the door with a torch, and Michael kicks it in. Go to the vault and collect the money. The total is $8,016,020.

Walking out

The crew leaves in heavy armor, with Trevor carrying a minigun. You move very slowly, so use the cover of your armor and keep walking forward. Take down the police, then the helicopter as Trevor. It crashes into an apartment building and opens up a way through the backyards.

The military arrives

NOOSE teams fill the street, and you push on to the construction yard. If you hired a weak gunman, a police car crushes him here. Walk over and pick up his bag, or you lose about $2.5 million. Then the army arrives with tanks and soldiers, and you need to hold on until Franklin gets there.

Franklin’s bulldozer

Franklin drives over in a Dozer from the Paleto Construction site. Pick up Michael and Trevor in the bucket, keep moving past the tanks and head for the Cluckin’ Bell factory. Go through the building to the railway platform and hold off the soldiers until the train arrives. Climb on and you’re away.

Gold Medal requirements

Trevor’s minigun gets you past 4,000 bullets fast. Shoot the gas station as you leave the bank and destroy vehicles to reach $1,000,000 in damage. A shotgun on Michael helps the 50% accuracy total. Keep moving forward to stay inside 16:00.
