After the shootings in Istanbul,
Jericho was revived from his gunshot wounds. After recovery, he eluded
the security and escaped the Istanbul hospital, fleeing from Turkey
and escaping back to the U.S. After 6 months of searching him, Tanner
and Jones managed to find him and arrest him. He is currently in San Francisco, awaiting trial.
At the beginning of the game, Jericho is shown being transported in
the back of a prison truck to his trial. A hired assassin fires an RPG
at the convoy; whilst Jericho's guards are distracted, he melts through
his chains with a hidden vial of acid given to him by a bribed guard. He
overpowers his guards, and hijacks the truck. Tanner and Jones witness
this from Tanner's car and pursue Jericho as he causes havoc on the
streets of the city. Tanner loses track of Jericho when he turns into an
alley, and is caught by surprise when Jericho drives up behind him.
Jericho uses the truck to ram Tanner's car into the path of a semi
truck, resulting in a devastating crash, putting Tanner into a coma.
Whilst in a coma dream, Tanner soon discovers his ability to "shift"
into another person's body, retaining his persona but, to everyone else,
looking and sounding exactly the same as the person he has shifted
into. Using this confusing power, Tanner helps people around the city
whilst trying to figure out Jericho's plan. After deducing that Jericho
is after the materials to create a cyanide gas bomb, he shifts into
Ordell, a low-time crook looking to rise up through Jericho's
organization.
Tanner later discovers that Jericho can also shift, and realises that
when he is not in his body, Jericho can take over. Eventually, Tanner
figures out that he is in a dream world when the strange messages from
the real world creep into his mind. Jericho's powers become more potent,
but Tanner realises that as it is all in his mind, he can play by the
same rules, and he ultimately defeats his mental projection of Jericho.
In a mental visualisation of a police interrogation room, Tanner begins
questioning Jericho and figures that the news reports from the
television in his real-world hospital bed are feeding his coma dream.
From this he knows of a real-world bomb plot, but deduces that it is not
real - Jericho is a gangster, not a terrorist.
Finally waking up, Tanner requests his car keys from Jones, who
reminds him of the truck that hit his Dodge Challenger. Tanner leaves in
Jones' Chevrolet Camaro and heads for downtown San Francisco, which is
being evacuated due to the bomb threat. A massive cloud of gas erupts
from the city as Tanner approaches, but he quickly discovers it is
harmless; the bomb is a literal smokescreen being used to cover a prison
break. Jericho had made a deal with a prisoner for US$30 million to
break him out of jail. After a pursuit, Tanner sees Jericho head into
the docks. Tanner and Jericho drive at each other in an apparent game of
chicken and a potential head-on collision, but Jones appears in a
police SUV and rams Jericho from the side, incapacitating him. Tanner
claims that he knew what he was doing, but Jones reminds him whose car
he was driving, before suggesting a well-deserved beer.
