Ride to the deal
Elizabeta tells you and her crew that the police may be on to her and she wants the cocaine from the toll booth job sold fast. When you regain control, take your Hexer and follow the yellow route on the radar. The objective is to go to the deal. Malc and DeSean ride along, so keep your bike in one piece, because wrecking it before the deal fails the mission.



Defend DeSean from the police
The deal takes place beside a fenced basketball court. A short scene shows the meeting, and then things turn violent. Your Hexer is destroyed and the police arrive. You climb on the back of Malc’s bike for the rest of the mission. The objective changes to defending DeSean from the cops, and from here you shoot while Malc drives.




You carry an assault shotgun that has plenty of ammo, so fire freely at the pursuing cruisers. Aim at the cars that pull up close to DeSean’s bike first. Take out the engine or the driver of each one and the car drops back. If either Malc or DeSean is killed, the mission fails. Keep the reticle on the nearest threat.




A police helicopter joins the pursuit as you cross the elevated road. Shoot at it when it hovers close and keep firing at the cars on the ground. Do not waste time chasing individual cruisers.




Red gas canisters sit along the route. A single shot sets one off in a large blast that wipes out several police cars at once. Watch for them near the roads you pass, and shoot when a cruiser drives by them. The gas station gives you the same chance, since hitting a pump blows up everything near it.




Late in the chase, Malc leads you into a Grotti car dealership. You end up boxed in. Either shoot the window to clear a path or wait for Malc to ride through it. After that comes a long run through an underpass and along the waterfront with more cruisers behind you. Keep shooting until the last one crashes. The route ends under a highway bridge, where you step off the bike and the mission is complete.



What fails this mission
Besides dying or being arrested, the mission ends if any of these happen:
- Malc dies
- DeSean dies
- Your bike is destroyed before the deal
- Your bike is abandoned
- Malc’s bike is destroyed
- DeSean’s bike is destroyed
After the mission
You earn $3,000. At the end, Johnny steps off, hands the drugs to Malc and DeSean and calls Elizabeta, who tells him to keep clear while the heat is on. Malc now turns up as a random character, and Clay can supply a Double T on request. Roman’s Holiday and Diamonds in the Rough open once Coming Down and Bad Standing are also done.
