The Chef is the fourteenth Elusive Target Mission in HITMAN™ and tasks you with eliminating Gabriel Santos.
The Chef[]
Diana Burnwood (VO): "Good afternoon, 47. Your target is Gabriel Santos, a celebrity super chef and an example of the immunity granted by wealth and public life.
He has evaded any consequences to his career following a stream of assaults on assistants, producers and staff. The target will be in Paris providing luxury catering for Viktor Novikov and Dalia Margolis and will have an entourage of social media producers and assistants around him at all times. The client, a former investor in Santos' production company, specifically requests that the target be eliminated tonight. So, our operational window is slim.
The clock is ticking, 47. Good Luck."
