GTA 5 The Wrap Up Walkthrough: Kortz Center Escape

Characters: Michael and Trevor. Start: Dave’s meeting at the Kortz Center after The Bureau Raid.

The Wrap Up turns Michael’s meeting with Dave into a battle involving several armed groups. Trevor provides sniper cover before Michael makes the final escape. Gold requires eighteen headshots and destroying the helicopter that follows the getaway car, not merely losing it.

Step-by-step walkthrough

  1. Fight from the balcony towards Dave

    Meet Dave at the marked lookout and follow the confrontation into the firefight. Use the balcony cover to eliminate agents blocking Michael’s path. Activate his special ability when several clear headshot targets appear.

    Keep moving towards the courtyard when the objective changes. Remaining at the starting position after its threats are cleared wastes the seven-minute allowance.

  2. Use Trevor’s vantage point

    When control shifts to Trevor, shoot the attacking helicopter’s pilot and cover Michael and Dave from above. Pick off threats with clear lines of fire rather than shooting through architecture.

    Use the available character switches to cover whichever angle is under pressure. The eighteen-headshot total can be built across these combat sections, but Dave still needs protection while moving.

  3. Reach the parking area and leave

    As Michael, clear the remaining enemies between the courtyard and the parking lot. Get into a vehicle and follow the escape towards Morningwood. Avoid spending time fighting enemies far away from the route once the getaway objective is active.

  4. Destroy the pursuing helicopter

    For Buzz Off, stop at a position with cover and a clear view of the helicopter, then shoot it down. Michael’s ability can help target the pilot. Simply outrunning the aircraft completes the escape route without satisfying this medal.

    After the pursuit ends, drive to the meeting behind the pawn shop in Morningwood. Finish the conversation with Trevor and the call to Lester to complete the mission.

Gold medal checklist

  • Time: Complete within 7:00.
  • Headshots: Kill eighteen enemies with headshots.
  • Buzz Off!: Shoot down the helicopter pursuing Michael during the getaway.

Common questions

Does the earlier helicopter kill count for Buzz Off?

The relevant objective is the helicopter pursuing the final getaway. Destroy that aircraft rather than only escaping it.

Should I kill every enemy at the museum before leaving?

Clear the threats blocking Dave and the marked escape route, then follow the changing objectives. Unnecessary fighting can lose the time target.

What happens next

The remaining family, studio and Lamar missions lead towards Planning the Big Score and the Union Depository finale.
