Paul hooked the Chimps up with a local drug dealer named [[The Truth]], who took the band into the [[Bone County]] desert on a "[[Don Peyote|peyote safari]]". The trip went bad, with The Truth waking up separated from the band in a [[Los Santos in GTA III Era|Los Santos]] Japanese bathhouse.  Later, The Truth asks his friend, protagonist [[Carl Johnson|Carl "CJ" Johnson]] to go find them out on [[Arco del Oeste]], but by the time Carl found them, the other members of the Chimps had vanished, leaving Paul and Maccer behind. Carl takes Paul and Maccer looking for the rest of the Chimps, but after a close encounter with some angry snake farmers and no sign of the other Chimps, Paul decides to simply "pray they made it back to civilization", saying that "keyboardists and drummers are ten-a-penny anyway".

Paul asksCarl to drive them to [[Las Venturas]], where his old friend, disbarred former lawyer [[Ken Rosenberg|Ken "Rosie" Rosenberg]], is involved in running Caligula's Palace, a renowned mob casino, owned by three feuding Mafia families, with Rosie set as a neutral party. Paul and Maccer are taken hostage by Leone family don and surviving mob boss [[Salvatore Leone]] to ensure Rosie's cooperation. When Salvatore asks Carl to perform a hit on Saint Mark's Bistro in Liberty City, Carl tricks Salvatore into letting Rosie, Paul and Maccer go with him as backup. Instead of actually taking them, he has them leave for Los Santos.

*According to a cut line, Paul says that Maccer is [[wp:Priapism|priapic]]; a syndrome where an erection lasts for several hours, or even days. This condition is actually very painful and if the blood making the erection doesn't flow back into the body it will stagnate and make matters worse. Priapism can be very common with individuals who have done narcotics such as Cocaine and other blood pressure raising drugs like it. However, this may just be Kent's way of sarcastically insulting Maccer.
