Grand Finale Part Four

"Grand Finale Part Four" is the final mission in Saints Row IV.
==Overview==
The Punch the Shark Quest is split into four different Missions. Unlike the previous three Missions in the Quest, there is no Homie selection at the beginning, as in continues directly from the previous Mission.
This mission begins with Playa breaking through the vent into Zinyak's throne room. Zinyak and Playa then fight. Zinyak gets a suit of power armour and creates a shield around him while Playa is attacked by explosive C.I.D.s and Zin troops.
After a quick time event, Zinyak is killed, his throne rises up, and Playa sits in it.
==Gameplay==
This fight is separated into four stages and a at the end.
During the first stage, Zinyak moves around the map in a giant mech suit, standing on one of the platforms around the edge of the map. After standing on a platform for a while, he flies to another platform while attacking. If Playa is not on Zinyak's platform, he fires large explosive laser blasts at a rapid rate in Playa's direction. If Playa shares the platform with Zinyak, he uses a powerful stomp attack in an attempt to knock Playa off the platform.
In the second stage, Zinyak surrounds himself with a barrier and exploding CIDs on the central platform. The only way to damage Zinyak is to catch him in the explosion radius of a CID. Playa is encouraged to use Telekinesis to hurl CIDs through the barrier, and can do so either from the center platform or one of the side platforms, the latter of which is much safer but much slower. It is encouraged to use Force element, as the CIDs detonate if they take too much damage.
In the third stage, the shield generators manifest, as well as a swarm of portals which spawn Zin and Murderbots. The Saints also arrive on Xors and aid Playa in battle. This stage is cleared by disabling the generators.
The final stage is similar to the first stage, but with all of the enemies and allies from previous stages in battle.
==Endings==
There are two endings to this mission, though it is not through any actions in this mission. If all loyalty quests are completed, then the bonus ending is played, in which the Saints discover time travel and the narrator is revealed to be Jane Austen. If not all the loyalty quests are completed, then the Saints do not discover time travel and the "Saints and Sensibility" achievement is not unlocked.

==Trivia==

*The phrase "You keep what you kill" has recently been popularised in the film .
*After completing the mission, the post-game tutorial text is titled "I came, I saw, I conquered", which is the English translation of Julius Caesar's famous line "".
*Playa promising Zinyak to rip his head off and later keeping their words in the final cutscene seems to be a reference to Lunar Apocalypse episode boss fight which also took place on a space installation, although Duke's promise featured some additional actions that were performed in the ending cutscene as well as the decapitation itself. Furthermore, the whole named episode involved aliens kidnapping Earth citizens making the reference more likely.
*At the start of the game, the ending scene is shown briefly, with Playa in "The Iron Saint" .
* The phrase "Not with a bang but a whimper" is from the poem by , and was previously quoted by Killbane.

**This is the only real world mission where the Zin uses Portals.
**Unlike all other final boss fights in the Saints Row series, all the Saint lieutenants participate in the final boss fight, in addition to non-Saints.
**The Saint lieutenants and allies use Saint themed Xor hoverbikes, and is the only time a Saints-themed Zin vehicle are used by the Saints outside the Simulation.
**Playa verbally expresses concern that they were struggling badly with the final boss fight.
*The quest description, "You want the good ending? Hope you bonded with your crew.", hints that the player must complete all Loyalty missions in order to get the good ending.
*If Telekinesis fails to work, you can guide the CIDs close to the shield to detonate, where their blast radius is wide enough to injure Zinyak through it.
