In Schedule 1, Melissa Wood is a special customer you can meet once you unlock the Docks area. She works as the Blackjack dealer at the casino and can also be seen around the neighbourhood. Like other NPCs, she has her favourite items and effects, and if you learn what she likes, you can win her over as a customer. This guide will walk you through how to meet Melissa, what she prefers, and how to create the right mix to get the “Melissa Wood Effect.”
Melissa Wood In Schedule I
Melissa Wood is one of the customers you can meet in the Docks region. She works as the dealer for the Blackjack game inside the casino and lives in the house right next to the bungalow. You will also sometimes spot her visiting the Wentworths’ house.
To meet Melissa, you will first need to unlock the Docks area by reaching at least Enforcer 1 rank. After that, you will have to buy a property near the Docks, which costs $50,000. Once you’ve done all this, head over to the Casino and you will find Melissa dealing cards. Give her a free sample and meet her preferences, and she will become one of your customers.
How To Get the Melissa Wood Effect

Like every NPC, Melissa has a list of three things she likes. You don’t have to use all of them; just combine one or two to make something she will accept. For Melissa, you will need meth, a banana, and gasoline. Mix those and you’re good to go. Save your game before giving her the sample. If she rejects it, you can just reload and try again. Usually, she will accept within a few tries.
Melissa’s favourite effects are Anti-Gravity, Refreshing, and Slippery. If you can put together a mix that includes one or two of these, she will usually be happy with it. You don’t always need all three, but the closer you are to her preferences, the better your chances of winning her over.
