Need for Speed: Most Wanted - Blacklist 14 - Part 3

The game begins with the player taking part in a sprint race against Clarence "Razor" Callahan (Derek Hamilton), in order to take his #15 spot on the blacklist. During the race, the player receives a call stating that his custom painted BMW M3 GTR suffered an oil leak at the start line, and that the player had to end the race fast. Despite the warning, the engine seizes due to lack of oil. In a flashback to a few days ago, the player is seen arriving at Rockport for the very first time, hoping to take part in the city's illegal street racing scene. Upon arriving, he meets with Mia Townsend (Josie Maran) in her Mazda RX-8, who offers to help him get started. He also crosses paths with Sergeant Nathan Cross (Dean McKenzie), the city's top traffic police officer in the Rockport Police Department (RPD) who drives a custom-painted Chevrolet Corvette police interceptor, along with his unnamed partner (Simone Bailly). Cross seeks to bring down the "Blacklist", a group of the fifteen most-wanted drivers sought by the RPD and declares that street racing in Rockport is "finished". Cross almost arrests the player before being forced to answer another street racing distress call; Cross leaves after keying the player's car. The player starts competing with other street racers, such as Ronald "Ronnie" McCrea (Paul Dzenkiw), and befriends fellow racer Rog (André Sogliuzzo). He soon catches the attention of Razor, who underestimates the player and dispatches Toru "Bull" Sato (Kevan Ohtsji) to defeat the player; Bull is defeated instead. The player thus receives the chance to race against Razor in a "pink slip" race and the timeline comes back to the present. The player loses the race due to the oil leak caused by Ronnie sabotaging the player's car, and Razor soon claims the player's BMW for himself before fleeing with the other racers, as Cross and the RPD arrive. With no car to escape, the player is arrested. After some time, the player is released from custody due to lack of evidence, and is picked up by Mia. She explains that Razor had the BMW sabotaged to win it, and used it to take the #1 spot on the Blacklist. Providing the player with a safehouse and helping him buy a new car, Mia recommends that the player work up the Blacklist himself, defeating each of its racers, in order to challenge Razor and win back his car. In exchange for her help, including the involvement of Rog, Mia asks for the unquestioned placement of large "side bets" on the player's street races. As the player makes progress, Rog contacts the player to inform them that Mia's bets are earning her large amounts of money that will likely attract RPD's attention, and suggests they keep their distance from her. Eventually the player becomes #2 on the Blacklist and attracts Razor's attention from the reputation they have accumulated over time, culminating in the pair racing against each other. The player manages to defeat Razor and recover the BMW from him, but quickly learn that Mia is an undercover police officer for the RPD, who had been working to bring down the Blacklist from the inside for Cross. As the RPD begin to arrive on the scene, Mia advises the player to run, as Razor and the Blacklist racers are arrested, despite several of them trying to flee when they realize Mia lured them into the RPD's ambush. Cross, angered at Mia's inability to arrest the player as well, calls in a city-wide police hunt for them. Unable to return to their safehouses due to Cross knowing about their location, the player finds themselves aggressively pursued around the city. Mia soon contacts them, directing them to jump from a derelict bridge outside the city limits. The player successfully evades the cops by reaching it and leaves Rockport. In a post-credits scene, Cross creates a national-level warrant for the player and their BMW, adding them to the National Most Wanted List.
