About this quest
The grey fog can wrap itself around Aquatic Park like a soft blanket. There’s nothing soft about your job.
You’re an errand boy for the most notorious American gangster of them all, Al Capone. He may be locked up on “The Rock”, but he can get things done!
With sweeping views of Alcatraz, the Golden Gate Bridge and the Bay, this is one of the most beautiful areas in San Francisco.
Don’t take too much time admiring the scenery, you’re working for “Scarface” and he expects results, and punks who fail end up sleeping with the fishes.
