Talk to the strangers.
Upon entering the area, you will meet two characters Paco and Babs, engage in the dialogue and the mission will advance.
Talk to Paco and Babs.
Talk to Paco and Babs and go through the dialogue as it appears and you will be prompted to sit down.
Sit down with Paco and Babs.
Sit down as prompted and proceed to speak to with Paco and Babs. Go through the dialogue and exhaust the options until you are given an inhaler that once you use it, sends you into a dream-like state where the quest then advances.
Talk to Yuri
As soon as you come back, you will see a character called Yuri in front of you. Head up towards him and start the conversation. Continue with dialogue and then you will head down some stairs to speak with Paco.
Talk to Paco
Engage in the conversation with Paco, which will result in a fistfight.
Defeat Paco in a fistfight.
This fight is fairly straightforward. The fight controls are listed in the bottom right corner of the screen, so use them to take on Paco and then beat Paco until he kneels down and the fight ends.
Talk to Paco.
Once again talk to Paco. You will end up back in the area you started off in.
You are then prompted to take another puff of the Dive (inhaler).
Take Deep Dive with Paco and Babs.
Once you use the Dive, you will go back into another scenario where you are in a vehicle with Paco.
Drive with Paco.
As you arrive in a new area with Paco, you will exit the car and in a gun fight with some scavengers, so be ready to take them on.
Defeat the scavengers.
There are various enemies in this area. You will need to take them all out with the help of AI characters. Once you clean the area, the objective will update.
Approach the wounded scavengers.
There is a wounded scavenger on the ground. Head over to him and use the dialogue as prompted.
Talk to Paco and the BARGHEST soldiers.
After the conversation with the soldiers, you will be back in the starting area/room again where you will continue the conversation with Paco and Babs.
There are three possible outcomes from this quest and their objectives.
- Frame Yuri –> Meet Paco and Babs in the underpass tomorrow evening –>Wait for Paco and Babs –> Defeat Yuri –> Search Yuri’s body –> Talk to Johnny –> Find Paco’s body under the Needle –>Message Bab’s to check on her.
- Run away –>Talk to Paco and Babs –> Walk with Paco to his car –> Talk to Paco –> Get in Paco’s car –> Drive Paco out of Dogtown –>Drop Paco off at the Grand Imperial Mall –> Get Paco out of the trunk –> Talk to Paco –> Wait two days for Paco to message you –>Meet Paco by the Afterlife –> Talk to Paco
- Call in some Favors –>Message your contacts to find help for Paco and Babs –>Message River Ward (Optional) –> Talk to Paco about the help you arranged –> Wait to hear from Paco and Babs (wait for a text message). –> Collect the package Paco left you.
The second option highlighted above will let you leave the area and avoid confrontation. Once the dialogue options have been exhausted and you tell Paco and Babs that they are under threat from Yuri, Paco will leave with you.
Walk with Paco to his car.
Follow Paco as he leaves the area and head towards his car outside.
Talk to Paco.

Drop Paco off at the Grand Imperial Mall.
You are now to head to an area called the Grand Imperial Mall. Make your way there and drop Paco off.
Get Paco out of the trunk.
Paco needs you to get him out of the trunk, so open the trunk and get him out and wait until he starts speaking to you. Paco will say he will contact you in a couple of days.
Wait two days for Paco to message you.
Wait two days, you can skip time by opening the Menu (Touchpad / Menu-Button), in the bottom left click on “Skip Time” and advance in 24 hour cycles. Do this twice and you should receive a text message from Paco. If not, just drive around for a minute.
Meet Paco at the Afterlife.
Head to the Afterlife, where you need to meet and speak with Paco.
Talk to Paco.
Once you arrive, Paco will be sat on some steps on a chair, outside the Afterlife. Go through the dialogue with Paco, where he will give you a Power Assault Rifle for helping him. Once you have finished speaking with Paco, the quest will end.
