Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
Get in the truck.
Cordon off the Booth Tunnel.
Park the truck across the two markers to block the tunnel.
Steal the Stockade (after taking out all the cops).
Lose your wanted level.
Ditch the truck at the quiet location.
Take Aiden to the cliffs.
Kill Aiden.
Walkthrough
Derrick is high on cocaine when Niko arrives. He tells Niko that he heard Aiden O'Malley is being transported to the Alderney State Correctional Facility, and blames Aiden for betraying him so he wants Aiden dead.
Soon, Packie calls Niko on the details. Aiden is heavily guarded by a LCPD escort. He left a Biff with a Rocket Launcher off Applewhite in Alderney City. He wants Niko to use the truck to block one end of the Booth Tunnel while Packie blocks the other end.
Niko calls Packie once he is in the truck. Packie wants this event to look like a prison break.
Niko then blocks the tunnel and stops the convoy and Packie comes from the rear and blocks that way, and one of the policemen gets out and asks Niko to move the truck. Niko and Packie launch a surprise attack on the convoy, killing all of the cops. After all the cops are dead, Niko and Packie steals the Police Stockade containing Aiden.
Niko drives the truck to Port Tudor to abandon it as he escapes the police. Niko, Packie, and Aiden change vehicle to a nearby parked Presidente and drive to the cliffs in Leftwood.
Aiden is very happy that he is free from police custody and asks who sent them to rescue him. Niko and Packie does not say who until they arrive at the cliffs.
Once there, Packie reveals that his elder brother Derrick sent them to free Aiden so that Niko can kill him. Aiden is shocked and says that Derrick has always been the rat. Packie leaves, then Niko shoots Aiden who then falls into the water as blood gushes on the ocean.
Trivia
Aiden will have different dialogue at the cliffs during sunset.
If O'Malley is killed by a Molotov, he will roll around screaming for a few seconds. When the game changes to the cutscene, he will stop burning, stand up again and collapse dead on the ground.
In this mission, along with Knowing Me, Knowing You, the player can hear Niko's voice through the phone, when he is talking to Packie.
Even though Packie calls and says the truck is on Applewhite Street, it's actually really on Mahesh Avenue.
If the radio station in the truck is changed before Packie calls, it returns to default once the conversation cutscene finishes.
Packie is seen listening to Liberty Rock Radio on the phone when the player can see him, which is his favorite station.
While Niko is talking to Derrick in the initial cutscene, a Flying Rat can be seen in the background (if the player hasn't killed it yet).
The sirens on the Police Cruiser, Police Patrol and NOOSE Patriot in this mission will stay on when the player exits them instead of the lights staying on and the sirens staying off. To do this, get in a Police car or Noose Patriot and turn on the sirens, then exit. This may be just a bug or a glitch, they will lose this feature if saved in a parking spot.
This is a similar mission to Off Route in The Lost and Damned
This mission is probably the only time the Police Stockade becomes available to the player as the ones in Three Leaf Clover were locked and inaccessible.
There is a way for the player to keep the Stockade. Mark a waypoint to the Alderney Safehouse then start the mission. When all the officers in the tunnel are killed, drive the Stockade to the safehouse and park it in the parking space. Then fail the mission. The easiest way to do this is to get killed by the police, or kill Packie just before entering the Stockade. The Police Stockade should now be saved in the parking space.
This mission bares a very close similarity to the introduction cutscene of the original Grand Theft Auto III, as both deal with police convoys being ambushed (while one takes place on the Callahan Bridge, and another at the Booth Tunnel) and prisoners released by force. Police convoys both consist of an armored truck and a police cruiser.
If the player pauses the game during the cutscene when Niko and Packie are talking on the phone in their trucks, the character arrow on the map will show Packie's position in Algonquin rather than Niko's.
