DELRAY HOLLOW: Thicker Than Blood

Mission: “Somethin’ I’ve Got To Do”

Lincoln Clay has more than just revenge in mind. As he told Father James, simple revenge is not enough—he seeks more comprehensive satisfaction. His plan: target everything Sal Marcano has built in New Bordeaux, everything he holds dear…and then wrench it away slowly, relentlessly, district by district.

Prerequisite: Complete “…A Friend in Jesus”

But before Lincoln can set his terrible and ambitious agenda in motion, he knows he must first go back home and confront the nightmares that haunt him.

Get into Donovan’s Car

Follow John Donovan out to his red Potomac Independent and hop in. Lincoln takes the wheel.

Drive to Sammy’s

Drive the trip route from St. Jerome’s (1) in the French Ward to the burned-out remains of Sammy’s Bar (2) back in Delray Hollow. On the way, listen to Lincoln lay out his thoughts and plans for Donovan. Donovan mentions “a tac-ops center and all this other [stuff] you asked me for.” When you pull into the destination marker, Lincoln hops out and Donovan says he’ll be at “the motel.”

Enter Sammy’s

Climb into the building via the front corner window using the controls displayed onscreen.

Retrieve Your Gear

Walk down the corridor toward the bar to trigger a disturbing flashback sequence. Keep veering left around the bar as the visions appear, one by one. Lincoln relives the terrible night of the Marcanos’ betrayal.

Continue to the staircase and head down into the basement. This triggers a cutscene: Lincoln retrieves gear including his Combat Knife from his trunk, as more memories of Sammy flood in. (Your Combat Knife lets you perform brutally efficient Lethal Takedowns on foes.) Then he uses its blade to prep himself for war.

Unlocks: “That’s the Plan, Padre”

Mission: “That’s the Plan, Padre”

Prerequisite: “Somethin’ I’ve Got to Do”

After the cutscene, approach the nearby safe and open it to get notification that this is your Stash House. (See the Tip on this page.) You automatically store all the cash you’re carrying in the safe. You can access it anytime, anyplace.

Discuss Potential Assets with Donovan

Go back upstairs and exit the building. Then hop into the dark blue and white Berkley Executive parked in the alley driveway near the front entrance. Follow the short trip route down the street to the Blue Gulf Motel (3) and pull into the parking lot.

Climb the motel’s stairs and enter the last door on the left to trigger a long cutscene: Lincoln marvels at Donovan’s sophisticated tactical center, and learns that the Haitian mob is not only reconstituted but also a possible ally.
