He Lives

He Lives is a mission in Saints Row IV.
==Overview==
Upon re-entering Simulation 31, there is an announcement that Keith David is making a speech at the PR Center, and all those residing in the simulation are required to attend. Upon arriving, Playa finds Keith making a speech praising Zinyak to the simulated residents of Steelport. After verbally confronting Keith David, he reveals that he betrayed Playa and joined Zinyak because he was told that, by doing so, Zinyak would restore the Earth. After this, everyone listening to his speech becomes hostile. Playa pursues Keith throughout the STAG PR Center, until he is ambushed by two Zin who pummel Playa while Keith watches. Eventually, Keith can't bare to watch his friend get hurt, and kills both of the Zin and attempts to escort Playa out of the PR Center. However, before he can do so Zinyak himself shows up and traps Keith David in his very own nightnare simulation for betraying him.
In Keith David's simulation, there is sound of bagpipes in the distance, and after traveling along some alleyways, Playa finds Roddy Piper battling Keith David. Keith David escapes Roddy using a Super Jump, and Roddy then tells Playa that Keith's mind is being controlled by a satellite placed on the rooftop of the building they were fighting next to. Playa agrees to help Roddy and the two fight their way to the top of the building to destroy the satellite. After killing the CIDs guarding the satellite and destroying it, Roddy tell Playa that it's "No good, I'll have to beat it out of him." He then proceeds to beat Keith to a pulp, which actually breaks the mind control and Keith is freed from his simulation. After Keith regains consciousness, Roddy mysteriously dissappears, Keith claiming that he only arrives where he is needed most. Keith is then unlocked as a Super Homie, and Roddy Piper is unlocked as a Homie.

==Trivia==
*The French female Playa's line "Great... this better not end up with me going ass to ass..." is a reference to the film , specifically a scene which features Keith David.
*The Alien Pistol carried by the Zin that Keith uses to save Playa uses the same skin that Playa has selected for the pistol.
*The name of the mission is a reference to the movie , which featured both Roddy Piper and Keith David.
*Many of the events that occur in Keith's nightmare simulation are references to They Live.
**The part of the mission where Roddy Piper and Keith David fight is almost identical to the fight between the two in They Live.
**The satellite that Playa must destroy, which was deployed by Zin and used to control people's minds, is exactly what the aliens used their satellite for in They Live.
**Many of Keith David's insane mutterings are exact lines of dialogue from They Live, such as "The people will know the truth!" and "That's what they want you to believe!"
*The bagpipes played while approaching Roddy Piper are from his wrestling entrance music.
*The interior of the PR Center is loaded only during the mission and although it is possible to remove the doors by parking a bike, such as Kaneda, parallel to them, the building inside is empty.
