==Mission==
== Mission ==
Tommy returns to the [[Vercetti Estate]] to find [[Mike (GTA VC)|Mike]] and [[Lance Vance|Lance]] arguing with each other. Tommy fins out that Mike screwed up the wiring to blow up the [[Tarbrush Café]] at the [[North Point Mall]], due to their refusal to pay protection money to the [[Vercetti Gang]], and now the police are now all over the place. Lance yells at him for this and sees no way of fixing this problem. Lance wants to bail out but Tommy doesn't like this idea. He thinks about pretending to be a cop to get past the heavy police presence to detonate the bomb themselves. Over at [[Vice Point]], Tommy and Lance lure two cops into a garage and beat them up and steal their uniforms. They suit up and head to the Tarbrush Cafe in North Point Mall. Tommy sets up the bomb and blow up the shop. This explosion causes Tommy to obtain a five star wanted level, and the [[FBI]] on his tail, but Tommy manages to evade them and heads back to his mansion with Lance.

'''Lance Vance''': Tommy, it's me, Lance. Keep your mouth shut there Tommy, 'cause I ain't got time to talk. I ain't interested in what you got to say. Why should I be? You don't care about me, do you? You gotta look after me a bit better. Give me a fair slice, you know... Tommy ... oh, look, man, I'm sorry. It's just that... People patronize me all my life, treat me like a little kid. My brother would do that. Please, man, don't do that. I gotta go.
