[[Roman]] becomes aware that [[Mallorie]] has been secretly going on dates with [[Vladimir Glebov|Vlad]]. Naturally he's upset, and [[Niko]] wants to go to the [[Comrades Bar]] and deal with him directly. Roman thinks Niko is crazy because he thinks that Vlad's men will get him and Niko into a lot of danger. Go with Roman to look for Vlad at the [[Comrades Bar]]

It is a good idea to drive to Roman's cab depot in a fast car when you go to receive this mission, as you will likely need it. Either a very fast car or one with very good handling is recommended for this mission, and for that matter all missions that involve a car chase.

* You automatically get a [[Pistol|handgun]] if you do not already have one after the [[cutscene]] where Vlad is cornered at the [[Humboldt River|River]]. This is a good thing if the player plans on stacking up pistol ammo.

* If you use [[Cheats in GTA IV|cheats]] to gain a [[rocket launcher]] before the mission, you can do something with it. After the cutscene where Niko runs into Vlad's [[Comrades Bar|bar]], take out the [[rocket launcher]] and run out of the back like you normally would. [[Vladimir Glebov|Vlad]]'s [[Marbelle|car]] takes about two seconds to drive out of view so you can blow [[Marbelle|it]] up. However, it fixes itself after a few seconds so the chase sequence is still present. It's still an interesting sight, though.

* The whole traffic during the chase is scripted (as numerous other missions in the game). The vehicles seen in the traffic are not random : a [[Feroci]], a [[Mule]], an [[Admiral]] and a [[Fortune]] in [[Mohawk Ave|Mohawk Avenue]], a [[Flatbed]] and a [[Declasse]] [[Taxi]] in Oakley Street, a [[Bus]] (never meant to appear in [[Broker]]) and a [[Sentinel]] (and a parked [[Minivan]]) in Delaware Avenue, a Mule and a Feroci in [[Cisco St|Cisco Street]], an [[Esperanto]], two Ferocis, a Fortune, a Flatbed, a [[Marbelle]], a [[Biff]], two Declasse Taxis and two Minivans in southern [[Mohanet Ave|Mohanet Avenue]], another Bus in Chicory Street, and a [[Bucanneer]], an [[Uranus]], a [[Feltzer]] and two [[Biff|Biffs]] in northern Mohanet Avenue.
