McManus Says Hello

"McManus Says Hello" is the fifth mission of Los Carnales story arc in Saints Row.
==Overview==
Troy and Dex meet Playa at a Friendly Fire. Dex has bought a McManus sniper rifle for Playa, and wants them to use it to kill Hector Lopez, leader of the Carnales, during a meeting with the Colombians, to disrupt their drug dealings and make the Carnales believe the Colombians killed Hector.
After doing this, the Stilwater Police Department arrive after an anonymous tip and arrest the remaining Carnales in the area. Victor Rodriguez hears what happens, and informs Angelo Lopez of the bad news regarding his older brother, while Angelo receives a blow job from Luz Avalos.
===Story===
==Gameplay==
;
This mission starts at 3am, with Playa inside a locked Friendly Fire and kicking open the door sets off the alarm.
Drive to Poseidon Alley in the Docks & Warehouses District. A time limit is given, but it is incredibly forgiving.
;
Climb to the roof of the building overlooking the meeting. The journey upwards is marked, but one wrong step kills Playa if they fall off from such a height. The journey takes them upwards along some boxes, a container, a fire escape, and some venting.
;
Once on the roof, wait while Hector Lopez arrives in a convoy of three random Los Carnales Hollywoods. Once the meeting begins, there are 12 targets to kill, Hector and 11 Carnales gang members - 9 of whom have RPG Launchers. The roof offers a great vantage point to kill the enemies, but while the RPGs aren't particularly threatening, they do create a lot of smoke and debris which is hard to see through, making it hard to kill the enemies. Strategic explosive barrels are located near the meeting - shooting them instantly kills any enemy taking cover behind them.
Hector Lopez does not have to be killed first. As he does not have an RPG, he is one of the least threatening targets. If not killed first, Hector does not attack while Playa is on the roof, and stands idly behind a car. When leaving the roof before killing Hector, Hector attacks Playa. If the Notoriety meter completely empties, Hector stops attacking.
;Success
The mission instantly ends upon killing all 12 gang members, including Hector Lopez. The Saints take over the Poseidon Alley neighborhood on completion of this mission. This was the fifth Carnales mission, marking one half of Los Carnales story arc completed.
After the mission, Playa remains in the same position. If still on the roof, be careful on the way down, as dying outside of a mission costs 20% of the current cash earned.
;Failure
The mission can be failed by getting Smoked, busted, leaving the roof or killing anyone before the deal begins, or letting the deal conclude.

==Trivia==
* The title of the mission is a clear reference to the sniper rifle featured in the mission: the McManus.
* The McManus is kept upon completion of the mission, along with however many rounds are left.
* The mission strings in the game files indicate that originally there was an extra objective which tasked the player to return to the church after killing Hector.
* 3 RPG-wielding Carnales are set to "Camp". There are 3 Carnales who take cover between firing, so this appears to be those 3.
* In addition to the 12 Carnales, there are 5 Colombians wielding NR4s who are set to "Neutral Gang". They can be killed, but after the deal is interrupted, they as set as invulnerable, flee and then are despawned once out of sight.
* The Colombian cartel members Hector meets are duplicates of Carnales "Killa" models, recoloured as white, with one wearing a blue shirt.
* This is the only mission where the Colombians are used, although there is an unused segment of Waterfront Rooftop which would have used Colombians.
* The specific 5 Colombians used in the mission change each time the missions is played, as they are random.
** There are 3 random AC_X_M_Columbians-01 variants, and there are 4 variants in total.
** There are 2 random AC_X_M_Columbians-02 variants, and there are 3 variants in total.
