This mission can be permanently missed in a save file after completing the mission Grand Theft Aero, which means that the player should complete Two-Faced Tanner before that mission if they want to achieve 100% completion and unlock all achievements/trophies.
Our source in the police has informed us that one of our drivers is a strangely animated undercover cop! He's more or less useless out of his car, so we've tagged it with a tracer. Make him bleed!

Two-Faced Tanner is a mission in Grand Theft Auto III, given to protagonist Claude by Yakuza co-leader Asuka Kasen from her condominium in the Newport district of Staunton Island, Liberty City.

Mission[]

Claude drops by Asuka's place, only to find out that she and Maria have gone shopping. Claude reads a note left by Asuka, which states that the Yakuza's police informant has said to them that one of their drivers is an undercover cop. She then tasks Claude to kill him.

He then heads to Kenji's Casino in Torrington. Once there, the driver is seen hopping onto his car. Claude then follows the car and tries to damage it enough to make him pull out of his car, all while having a high wanted level. Once he has bailed, Claude quickly kills him.

  • Take out Tanner.

Deaths[]

Trivia[]

  • The driver, along with his name and outfit, is a reference (and a mockery) of Tanner, the protagonist of the Driver video game series. He is mentioned by Asuka as being "useless outside of his car", referencing the lack of on-foot abilities in Driver 2.
  • When Tanner rushes towards his vehicle, he runs like a male pedestrian. However, after being forced out of his vehicle, he runs using "Chunky" Lee Chong's unique "panic" running animation.[1]
  • Damaging or destroying Tanner's Esperanto before entering the blue marker will alert him, failing the mission.
