Story and Mission Walkthrough
1. Franklin Receives the Repossession Job (0:01)
The mission begins at Simeon Yetarian’s luxury car dealership, Premium Deluxe Motorsport. Simeon gives Franklin Clinton another repossession job, sending him to Rockford Hills to recover an SUV from James De Santa. Simeon claims that the customer has fallen behind on payments and tells Franklin that the vehicle is kept at a large private residence.
Since the garage is locked, Franklin must find another way inside the property to retrieve the vehicle.
2. Breaking Into the De Santa Residence (1:45)
Franklin arrives at the De Santa estate in Rockford Hills. The objective is to enter the property, reach the garage and recover the SUV without attracting unwanted attention. The player must move carefully through the grounds and find a way into the house.
3. Knock Out the Gardener Stealthily (2:30)
One of the most important Gold Medal requirements is Dirt Nap. Franklin must knock out the gardener with a stealth attack. Approach the gardener from behind while remaining in stealth mode and perform the takedown when prompted.
Simply attacking the gardener openly will not satisfy this particular objective. Completing the takedown stealthily is essential if you want to earn the Gold Medal requirement during this playthrough.
4. Find the SUV and Discover Michael (3:20)
After entering the residence, Franklin makes his way through the house toward the garage. He reaches the SUV and prepares to drive it back to Simeon’s dealership. However, Franklin has no idea that Michael De Santa is hiding in the back seat.
Michael suddenly reveals himself and holds Franklin at gunpoint, taking control of the situation. What initially seemed like a straightforward repossession job quickly becomes a confrontation between Michael and Simeon.
5. Drive Through the Dealership Window (4:15)
Michael orders Franklin to drive the SUV straight through the glass storefront of Premium Deluxe Motorsport. Franklin follows his instructions, crashing the vehicle into the dealership and destroying part of the showroom.
The dramatic incident exposes the consequences of Simeon’s business practices and sets up the final confrontation of the mission.
6. Michael Confronts Simeon (5:10–5:50)
After the crash, Michael confronts Simeon inside the dealership. Angry about the way Simeon has treated his family, Michael attacks him. This fight is the focus of the Can’t Touch This Gold Medal objective.
To complete this challenge, you must take no damage during the fight with Simeon. Keep your attacks controlled and avoid giving him an opportunity to land a counterattack. Watch the gameplay above to follow the fight sequence.
7. The Aftermath (6:20–7:40)
Following the confrontation, Michael’s situation draws the attention of Dave Norton, a government contact who discusses Michael’s circumstances and personal life. The mission then returns to the fallout involving Franklin and Simeon.
Simeon is furious about what happened at the dealership and blames Franklin for the incident. The mission ends with Franklin facing the consequences of a repossession job that turned into something far more complicated than expected.
GTA 5 Complications – Gold Medal Objectives
To earn a Gold Medal in Complications, complete all three requirements below. The walkthrough demonstrates the objectives in one playthrough.
| Gold Medal Objective | Requirement | How to Complete It |
|---|---|---|
| Mission Time | Complete within 05:00 | Move efficiently through the house and avoid unnecessary delays. Skip cutscenes when possible. |
| Can’t Touch This | Take no damage during the fight with Simeon | Attack decisively and avoid allowing Simeon to counterattack. |
| Dirt Nap | Knock out the gardener with a stealth attack | Approach the gardener stealthily and perform the takedown from behind. |
Important tip: The mission-time objective has a five-minute limit. The full video includes cinematic sequences, so the video’s total runtime is not the same as the in-game mission timer.
Tips for Getting the Gold Medal
- Prioritize the gardener: Complete the stealth takedown while the gardener is unaware of Franklin.
- Use the quickest route through the house: Avoid exploring rooms or taking unnecessary detours when aiming for the time objective.
- Skip cutscenes when possible: This can help reduce the time counted toward the mission objective.
- Be careful during the Simeon fight: The Can’t Touch This objective requires you to take no damage during the fight.
- Follow the video timestamps: Use the relevant sections to review the stealth takedown, the vehicle sequence and the final fight.
- Remember that Gold Medal requirements are cumulative: In GTA V, you can complete different Gold Medal objectives across multiple playthroughs if you miss one.
