Mafia: Definitive Edition Walkthrough Part 20: The Death Of Art (FINAL MISSION & ENDING)
A morning after the bank robbery, Tommy heads towards Paulie's apartment to collect his share of the stolen money, intending to leave the town with his family afterwards. However, as he arrives to the apartment, Tommy finds Paulie shot dead and quickly discovers that the money is gone as well. As he searches the apartment, a telephone rings with Tommy answering it, finding Sam on the other end of the line. He claims that he was calling in order to warn Paulie about Salieri who has found out about the bank robbery and is looking to punish both of the perpetrators. Terrified, Tommy asks Sam to help him by providing him with some money so that he can take his family out of Lost Heaven. After Sam agrees, Tommy sets up a meeting with him in the city's art gallery, immediately heading there. However, as he arrives, Tommy is immediately ambushed by several Salieri gangsters led by Sam who reveals that he has killed Paulie and taken the money, having worked with Salieri all along, also revealing that Salieri found out about Frank's survival and relocation to Europe before ordering his men to kill Tommy quickly, retreating deeper into the gallery. However, Tommy fights his would-be executioners off before proceeding to kill his way through numerous Salieri enforcers as he pursues Sam throughout the gallery, their chase eventually ending on the top floor of the building where Tommy fatally wounds Sam, two mobsters confronting each other for the last time as Sam explains how Salieri tracked Frank down before enraged Tommy executes him and leaves.
Having finished telling his story to Norman, Tommy once again asks if he'd be willing to help him and his family enter the witness protection program with Norman explaining that such arrangement will be possible only if he is willing to officially testify in court before openly stating that he doubts that Tommy will be capable for such deed due to having known some of the indicated people for nearly a decade. However, Tommy reassures him that he will do whatever he must to ensure safe life for his family, his testimony ultimately bringing Salieri's crime network down with Tommy himself being given a reduced 8 years-long prison sentence before relocating to Empire Bay with his family under an assumed identity.
In September 1951, Tommy is watering a lawn in front of his home in Empire Bay before a red car pulls up in front of it. Car is vacated by two men named Vito and Joe who refer to Tommy by his old identity in order to get his attention. Realizing that he has been found, Tommy calmly faces his executioners as Vito states that "Mister Salieri sends his regards" before Joe executes him with a shotgun. As two assassins drive off, Sarah, Tommy's daughter and his in-laws all rush out to the porch, discovering critically injured and dying Tommy who uses last of his strength to comfort them, claiming that they are all safe now.
