Legal Trouble
Michael pursues Molly Schultz across Los Santos International Airport after she steals incriminating film documents tied to Devin Weston.
Overview
Legal Trouble follows the Meltdown home invasion fallout. Molly Schultz flees with film documents that implicate Michael De Santa's production partners and Devin Weston's business interests. Michael pursues her through Los Santos International Airport, weaving between terminals, service roads, and active runways. The chase is entirely on the ground and underscores how Weston and the studio executives box Michael in financially. The recovered papers tie directly into the Union Depository heist planning as a counter-move against Weston.
Walkthrough
1. Receive the pursuit objective after the Meltdown aftermath briefing. 2. Chase Molly Schultz's vehicle toward LSIA. 3. Follow her through airport access roads and between terminal buildings. 4. Stay on the runway route when she cuts across active taxiways. 5. Disable Molly's car without killing her before the scripted stop. 6. Recover the documents in the closing confrontation. Tactical note: Aim for tires rather than the cabin to avoid failing the no-kill requirement on Molly. Use the airport's long straights to build speed and close gaps.
Fail Conditions
The mission fails if Michael dies, if Molly Schultz escapes the airport area, or if the pursuit vehicle is lost before the documents are recovered.
Aftermath
Legal Trouble unlocks Surveying the Score and the Big Score planning arc while cementing Devin Weston as a primary antagonist. Michael's film career and Weston's leverage converge, pushing the crew toward the Union Depository robbery.
