Assuming the Truth

“Assuming the Truth” is the third mission in the Epsilon Program series in Grand Theft Auto V. In this mission, Michael De Santa is tasked with helping Epsilon Program members transport a special vehicle. As part of his Journey toward enlightenment, Michael must demonstrate his obedience to the cult by delivering the vehicle without questions.

Mission Overview

After completing the previous Epsilon mission, Michael receives instructions to retrieve and deliver a Pegassi Vacca, a luxury car considered sacred by the Epsilon Program. He must pick up the car from a designated location, drive it to a specific drop-off point, and complete the mission without causing any damage to the vehicle. This mission continues to test Michael’s loyalty and willingness to follow the program’s strange demands.

Objectives

  • Receive the email from the Epsilon Program with instructions.
  • Pick up the Pegassi Vacca from the designated location.
  • Drive the vehicle carefully to the drop-off point without damaging it.
  • Deliver the vehicle to complete the mission.

Setting

This mission takes place across Los Santos, with Michael needing to drive through the city while avoiding damage to the car. The focus is on maintaining control of the vehicle while following the Epsilon Program’s mysterious instructions. The setting emphasizes the contrast between the luxurious car and the cult’s strange, ascetic demands.

Walkthrough

Objective 1: Retrieve the Car

  • Check Your Email: After completing the previous mission, Michael receives an email with instructions to retrieve a Pegassi Vacca, a luxury sports car that the Epsilon Program considers sacred. The email includes the location where the car can be found.
  • Go to the Designated Location: The car is parked at a specific location in the city. Players must travel there to pick it up and start the delivery process.

Objective 2: Drive to the Drop-Off Point

  • Drive Carefully: Once Michael has the car, he must drive it to the designated drop-off point without damaging it. This means avoiding traffic, obeying traffic laws, and being cautious about bumps and collisions. The mission will fail if the car sustains too much damage.
  • Follow the GPS: A GPS marker will guide players to the drop-off point. The drive is relatively straightforward, but the challenge lies in ensuring the car remains in pristine condition throughout the Journey.

Objective 3: Deliver the Car

  • Arrive at the Drop-Off: Once Michael reaches the drop-off point, a cutscene will trigger. The car is handed over to Epsilon Program members, who thank Michael for his service to the program. The mission is then complete.
  • Mission Complete: After successfully delivering the vehicle, Michael receives further praise from the Epsilon Program, and the next stage of his initiation is unlocked.

Mission Conclusion

  • Cutscene: A brief cutscene plays where Epsilon Program members collect the car and express their satisfaction with Michael’s service. They remind him that his path to enlightenment is progressing, and there are more tasks ahead.
  • Rewards: No monetary rewards are provided in this mission, but completing it unlocks the next mission in the Epsilon Program series.

Trivia

  • This mission highlights Michael’s growing involvement in the Epsilon Program, testing his willingness to Obey without question.
