MissionStory
Cleaning the Hood
CJ and Ryder deal with a crack pusher and clear out a Ballas crack house.
- Mission no.
- 6
- Given by
- Sweet Johnson
- Area
- Los Santos
Overview
Cleaning the Hood shows how crack has eaten into Grove Street. CJ and Ryder first visit B Dup and Big Bear in the hope of recruiting them, but B Dup refuses and Bear is now his servant. The pair then go after the dealers selling crack to Families members and raid a crack den in the Idlewood projects.
The mission makes the crack epidemic personal. B Dup and Big Bear were once Families members, and seeing Bear reduced to cleaning for a dealer shows CJ how far the gang has fallen. It also starts the thread that ends late in the story with Beat Down on B Dup, when CJ and Sweet finally deal with B Dup and Bear asks to come back.
Walkthrough
- Drive Ryder to B Dup's house in Ganton Courts and watch the cutscene.
- Find the crack dealer selling to a Grove Street member nearby and beat him up.
- Learn the location of the dealer's den from him, then drive there with Ryder.
- Enter the crack den and fight the Ballas inside using melee attacks.
- Return to Sweet's house to complete the mission.
Tips
- Lock on and use combos with a baseball bat or your fists; the den's occupants are not heavily armed.
- Ryder helps in the fights, so let him draw attention while you take out stragglers.
