Cesar calls Carl to an intersection under the Mulholland freeway and shows him what is there: a green Sabre, and the men getting out of it. Everything Carl believed about the night his mother died is wrong, and the two people it was wrong about are the two he has been running errands for since he got home.
Then it is Sweet, ambushed and pinned, and a fight to hold the Ballas off him until the police arrive — which is not a rescue. The act ends with Sweet in custody, Carl in the back of a C.R.A.S.H. car, and Los Santos three hundred miles behind him.
