The Girl Hitchhiking is a character in the Grand Theft Auto series, appearing as a minor character in Grand Theft Auto V.
History[]
Background[]
Not much is known about the girl's life.
She says during the ride that she was having a party with some friends in Sandy Shores, on the night prior to her random event, and that she doesn't even remember going to bed.
She describes herself as a sexy, bohemian girl that goes out for days and takes ecstasy in the desert. She justifies her style of life, saying that she is still young and just wants to explore her mind and discover who she is.
The girl seems to only maintain a relationship with her unnamed boyfriend for his money, as she says during the ride that she spent all the money that he gave to her and gets nervous when the protagonist accuses her of only coming back to him when she runs out of money.
Events of Grand Theft Auto V[]
The girl appears in the Random Event - Hitch Lift 3.
She can be found at the junction of East Joshua Road and Route 1 in San Chianski Mountain Range, she asks the protagonist to take her to Mount Haan Drive in Vinewood Hills.
She says that she is going to meet her boyfriend, that works as a security guard in the broadcast tower behind the Vinewood Sign, to pay him a surprise visit.
Along the way, her boyfriend calls her and gets very angry when she says that a man is giving her a ride back to the city as she has exhausted the $1,000 he had loaned her. The girl even asks the protagonist to say to her boyfriend that he is "just a random guy not called Brian", just to calm him. After this, she gets a second call, this time she talks about the party in Sandy Shores and it gets pretty clear that she is talking with Brian, the man that her boyfriend was so jealous about, when the protagonist confronts her about this, the girl lies saying that it was not Brian, just one of her friends.
If playing as Trevor Philips or Michael De Santa during their exile between Caida Libre and Monkey Business, following the marked GPS route to the Vinewood Sign will trigger Martin Madrazo's men to come after them which will freak her out, failing the random event. Alternative routes to the destination are possible, however.
When they get to the destination, her boyfriend confronts the protagonist asking if he is Brian and starts a fist fight with him. If the player pulls out a gun to threaten/kill her boyfriend, she will run away and the random event will fail. The player then will need to wait some time to try her random event again.
When the protagonist knocks him out, the girl gets upset and calls the protagonist a psychopath. She can then be allowed to stay with her boyfriend or she can be killed. Either way, she will not appear in the game again.
Alternatively though, Trevor can take her to the Altruist Cult. If he does so, when driving up the hill where the Altruist Cult headquarters are, the girl will ask if this is the right way, and Trevor will respond that he is positive on where to take her. The girl will then say that she's "99 percent sure that the Vinewood sign isn't on this hill" and Trevor will also respond that "it's the other side of the hill" and the girl will feel "weirded out" after the dialogue. If she is the fourth person he delivers in order to activate the Altruist Shootout event, a glitch may occur where despite the Altruist Shootout still happening, the game will not consider the Hitch Lift 3 Random Event complete and the Rockstar Social Club icon for the event will not be unlocked. The event will later respawn and be available to do normally in order to complete it. This glitch is present in all versions of the game, including the Expanded and Enhanced versions, and has never been fixed through a patch.
