The King and I

"The King and I" is the tenth and penultimate mission of the Vice Kings story arc in Saints Row.
==Overview==
At the church, Julius Little holds a meeting with Benjamin King, Playa and Johnny Gat, and gives King an ultimatum: "keep [his] fuckin' pride and die right now, or [...] be a man and walk away". King chooses neither, and instead opts to kill Tanya first, and then walk away. Julius agrees, and sends Playa with King downtown.
There, they lure several Vice Kings to a police ambush site, severely weakening the gang and paving the way for King to reach Tanya when he's ready. King thanks Playa, and muses on what they could have accomplished together had Playa joined the Vice Kings instead.
===Story===
==Gameplay==
The premise of this mission is to gain the attention of some Vice Kings and lure them to a point on the map, whereupon the police automatically kill them. This needs to be done three times.
;
;
;
The first group is very easy to lure to the ambush site; simply shoot any Vice Kings gang member who does not have a green arrow above their head, wait for one who does to get in the nearby marked car, and drive away, making sure not to drive too far away from the vehicle.
;
The vehicle takes a lot of damage here, as fighting back fails the mission, so keep up the pace and lead the enemy to the site to finish them off.
;
;
The second group is slightly more difficult as they are further away from the ambush point, which means the longer drive back entails more damage received to the vehicle.
;
When reaching the second group, they are immediately hostile, unlike the first, due to Notoriety.
;
;
;
The third group is fairly close to the ambush point but is the most hassle because of their firepower and the high level of Notoriety. As such, consider changing vehicles before getting there.
;Success
After leading the third group to the ambush site, the mission ends, and the Saints take over the Brighton neighborhood in the Downtown District.
To begin the final mission of the Vice Kings story arc, "All the King's Men", the five Vice Kings Strongholds must be completed: "Sunnyvale Loft", "Filmore Parking Garage", "Abandoned Police Station", "King's Grocery", and "Waterfront Rooftop".
;Failure
The mission can be failed by getting smoked or busted, abandoning/killing King, destroying a marked Vice Kings vehicle, or killing its driver.

==Trivia==
* The name of the mission is a reference to the musical .
* During the drive, Benjamin King notes that Julius Little grew up in Sunnyvale and is not originally from Saint's Row.
* He also recalls the "I don't care what flags they're flyin'" speech, which King wrote years ago and Julius was always fond of. Julius said this speech during the opening cutscene of "Canonized".
* King ominously foreshadows later events in the Saints Row series, saying that "even if you wipe out the Vice Kings, it ain't gonna be over", that "There's always someone lookin' to take what you have... some punk who wants to make a name for himself", and "The fact is, once you're in the game, the only way you're getting out is if you're dead or in jail".
