STRANGER AND FREAKS #46 Unknowing The Truth

EMPLOYER: Epsilon

PREREQUISITES: $50,000, Must be Michael

REWARDS/UNLOCKS: N/A

COMPLETION REQS:

1. Cult Intervention: Kill all epsilon security.

2. Show Me The Money: Steal the epsilon money and escape.

Note: Unlike other Epsilon missions, you can re-play this Strangers and Freaks mission through the game's main menu re-play option. This is likely due to the fact that it actually has some medal requirements.

Note: Be sure to wear your Epsilon Robes for this mission!

Note: This mission has several different outcomes you can take and you can of course do whatever you wish - we will cover all three. However we highly recommend following the medal requirements and well... getting paid! You don't want all to reward nonsense and get nothing out of these quests do you? Do you!?

To start this mission first make sure you have on your Epsilon Robes and that you have at least $50,000 in your bank account (that is your tithe that they were talking about in the last mission), then head to the Epsilon icon.

Here you will meet Cris, who has decided to take some of his "Apocalypse Fund" to the Cayman Island (nothing shady about that...). He will have you drive the car with the cash in it personally.

Now there are basically three unspoken options at this point:

1) Deliver The Money

This option is the passive, obedient option. You are truly one with Kraff, Brother-Brother. Follow the security van as it makes its way to the nearby helicopter pickup. Park in the marked parking spot as requested, then follow the epsilon member as he walks and talks with you. They will be very pleased with you and will present you with a gift... a beat-up old tractor.

Um... enjoy?

2) Speedy Escape!

This option is pretty obvious what with the car and cash: you try and make a run for it. Obviously the security won't just let you go, but you can outrun them if you are smart.

The best place to start your getaway is when you get close to the drop-off point and the security van makes that right turn: just put the pedal to the metal and keep going straight. You'll get a warning and then all of epsilon security will turn red. The ground forces have no chance at catching you at this point though so all you have to worry about is the helicopter and Brother Tom shooting at you. You can lose them as well if you try: the canal and waterway in east Los Santos are your best bet here (or if all else fails aim for the train tunnels).

This option however only fulfills one of the medal requirements (Show me the Money). You will gain $2,100,000 from this option once you succeed though, as well as an angry call from Cris! Kifflom!

3) Kill Them All!

This is the option you want if you are aiming for both medals.

To do this option, drive to the drop-off point but do not park in the highlighted circle. Instead, drive around the helicopter on the right and park near the far wall but angle your car so you can stand behind it facing the helicopter and van. Now, get out of the car and go stand behind it (for some form of cover) and then select your grenades. Quickly toss one at the chopper and another at the security van to easily take out both of them.

After that you will have two guards standing nearby that need killing (you can go hunt them down beyond the chopper wreckage) and one more security team will show up in a little bit that you need to kill as well.

All these explosions and gunfire will trigger a wanted level and send the cops on their way, so get in the car. Now, there is a skinny alley up to your left that you can escape from. From there you can avoid the cops and your two-star wanted level quite easily.

This option fulfills both medal requirements and also nets you $2,100,000 as well as an angry call from Cris. Kifflom, Brother Brother, you have done it!

Note: After you complete this mission you should get a text from Marnie. This text starts the (optional) Epsilon Tract hunt. Check that section of the guide if you need help with it (you will!).
