Keep watch while Roman visits the hardware store, warn him about the loan sharks and bring him back to the depot. The important trigger is using Roman’s own car.

Mission walkthrough
-
Take Roman to the store
Get into the marked car at the cab depot with Roman. Drive to the hardware store and stop where instructed. Do not replace the car with another vehicle on the way: the loan-shark encounter depends on this mission vehicle.
-
Make the warning call
Remain parked and watch the street while Roman goes inside. When the loan sharks arrive, open the phone, select Roman and call him immediately. Leave room for Roman to reach the passenger door when he runs outside.
-
Lose the pursuers
Wait until Roman is aboard, then drive away and create distance from the pursuing car. Choose clear turns rather than ramming traffic. After the pursuit ends, follow the depot marker and stop there to finish.
Key point
If the men never arrive, check that you brought the marked taxi and are waiting at the correct location. Calling Roman early and driving off without him does not replace the scripted warning.
