Role in GTA Online
The Criminal Enterprises (2022): Mason buys a set of seized assets from corrupt FIB agents. Among them are backup drives of Cliffford, the neural network built by the late Avon Hertz. He uses the code to build an AI that manipulates gasoline prices across San Andreas and keeps the Duggan family's profits high.
Agent ULP of the IAA suspects the Duggans are behind the price spike. He swears in the protagonist as a special agent for ULP - Operation Paper Trail, and the investigation confirms the family is responsible. After the protagonist takes the AI technology from the Duggans, Mason arranges to buy more Cliffford parts from the FIB. The protagonist breaks up the meeting on top of the Mile High Club. Mason flees in his Annihilator Stealth, but the damaged helicopter has to land on the roof of the Maibatsu Factory in Murrieta Heights. There the protagonist kills him, using a method the player chooses, and takes the Cliffford drives from his body for the IAA.
