Guide to Part 51 of Hitman World of Assassination, focusing on 'The Showstopper' mission in Paris. Learn about targets Viktor Novikov and Dalia Margolis, IAGO, and mission accomplishments.
This mission takes 47 to Paris where he is to take down two Targets, Viktor Novikov and Dalia Margolis. Viktor and Dalia head up the couture brand called Sanguine and are the most famous power couple in the fashion industry. However, behind the scenes, they are also two of the most dangerous people in the world.
They head up a powerful and dangerous spy organization called IAGO. They specialize in stealing secrets from the rich and powerful and then selling them to the highest bidder. The security leaks they have caused have created havoc in certain parts of the world. Now they have MI6's NOC List and the famous British intelligence agency has tasked The Agency in bringing down IAGO once and for all.
Sanguine is hosting a big fashion show at the Palais de Walewska with Viktor in attendance. However, on the top floor, a secret auction is being held by IAGO where multiple state secrets, including the NOC List, are being sold to the highest bidder. This is where Dalia is going to be. She is actually the one who runs IAGO with Viktor being the moneyman and Sanguine being the cover.
The whole palace is teeming with security ranging from standard Security Guards to highly trained Bodyguards being provided by CICADA. Certainly a tough task to be sure but nothing that a master assassin like 47 can't handle.

General Layout
IMPORTANT: For mapping directions within this chapter north is the top of the screen. The Compass has north pointed at nearly 90 degrees left. Therefore you should turn it off to prevent confusion.
The Palace is a large four level facility. It has a Basement and three upper levels. The interesting thing about the structure is that the ground floor is not the first floor as it is typically at least here in the United States. The European way of labeling floors is different and this chart breaks this down:
| Europe | American |
|---|---|
| Ground | 1st |
| 1st | 2nd |
| 2nd | 3rd |
I am going to use the European designation since that is what the game uses.
As for the general layout, the Basement area consists of staff related rooms such as the Basement Kitchen, Wine Cellars, and Security Room. The Outside area has multiple gardens, parking areas, sheds, and places for boats and helicopters. The Ground Floor is where most of the action happens and has the Dressing Room.
