“I'm ashamed to admit that one of the causes of our mutual problem appears to have been the loose tongue of a man I used to trust. I've been carrying Gonzalez for years, but now his incompetence reaches new heights! It is only right that you kill Gonzalez...”
After receiving a phone call from Cortez for a job, Tommy meets Cortez at his yacht. Cortez tells Tommy that Gonzalez, a man who Cortez has trusted for years, has now become too incompetent and owes things to Cortez. He orders Tommy to kill Gonzalez and gives him a chainsaw, telling him that he will be rewarded.
Tommy goes to a penthouse Gonzalez was at in Vice Point where Gonzalez is being protected by two of Diaz's men. Once in the penthouse, Gonzales spots Tommy and attempts to flee. Tommy quickly chases Gonzalez down and kills him; the mission will result in a failure if Gonzales manages to reach the Washington Beach Police Station. Once he is killed, the police will be alarmed and a two-star wanted level will be gained. Tommy drives to the nearest Pay 'n' Spray to remove his wanted level.

Cortez:
For this kindness I'll reward you, and then we will find your money together. He will be at his penthouse, half drunk probably. Use this...

Upon arriving at Gonzalez's penthouse, the player will automatically receive a chainsaw, even if they replaced the provided chainsaw with a different melee weapon.
There is a hidden package on top of the penthouse. Getting it before Gonzales exits the roof is the best way to collect it early in the game. Otherwise, the player will be able to get it only with the help of a helicopter.
If the player hesitates killing Gonzalez for too long, he will run inside the Washington Beach Police Station, failing the mission.
