*Slaughterhouse becomes a slaughterhouse*— Stilwater Gazette newspaper headline

## Overview

After finding out from a Loa Dust-addicted bum that Mr. Sunshine is hiding out at the meat packing plant, Playa decides to head there and finish him off. Shaundi attempts to tag along, but after Veteran Child almost killed her, Playa refuses.

Playa clears out the meat packing plant and meets Mr. Sunshine at the end, in the assembly room. Mr. Sunshine attempts to use voodoo to defeat Playa, but is ultimately defeated. Playa then severs Mr. Sunshine's head and throws it onto the assembly line.

### Story

Upon completion of the Mission, this description is available at Newspaper Clipboards.

A meat packing plant in the Factories district is home to a grisly scene. Countless Sons of Samedi were massacred inside earlier in what is presumed to be another chapter in the gang's run-ins with the Third Street Saints. Identified among the dead was an individual known to many as "Mr. Sunshine" a high ranking Samedi lieutenant thought to be the Sons of Samedi's second-in-command.
## Gameplay

Head to the **meat packing plant**
Go to the meat packing plant.

Find **Mr. Sunshine**
Fight through to the back, where Mr. Sunshine lies. Although the plant is heavily defended with many troops, it is possible to drive straight to the entrance of the building - ignoring the enemies outside - and sprint past all the enemies in the building.

Kill **Mr. Sunshine**
Mr. Sunshine awaits Playa at the assembly room in a boss fight. He is on another balcony and cannot be reached.

Shoot Sunshine's Voodoo Doll!
Mr. Sunshine is invincible while he is holding the doll, and it can only be shot out of his hands as he raises it.

When Mr. Sunshine starts to raise his voodoo doll, shoot it out of his hands to make him vulnerable, and then proceed to shoot him as he goes to pick it up. It is entirely possible to kill him before he manages to pick the doll back up, making the boss fight - and the mission - a fairly short and easy one.

## Trivia

* The name of this mission is a reference to the 2004 movie *Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind*.
* Some of the enemies located both outside and inside the meat packing plant are equipped with RPG Launchers, which can kill Playa in one hit, especially when inside a vehicle.
* Similar to the boss fight against Veteran Child, multiple Sons of Samedi enemies will be present to back the boss up.
* Mr. Sunshine is weak against dual-wielding SMGs and assault rifles, as well as explosives such as Satchel Charges and RPG Launchers.
* The voodoo doll appears inside the White Crib in *Saints Row IV*.
* In the Japanese version, the scene with Mr. Sunshine getting beheaded is shortened to Playa slicing the head, due to Japanese video game rating regulations.
