Walkthrough

Claude arrives at Asuka Kasen's Condo in Newport and finds a note from Asuka, which says that she and Maria have gone shopping.

Asuka claims that the Yakuza's man inside the LCPD told her that Yakuza's driver, Tanner, is an undercover cop. Asuka says that he is useless outside of his car and so she orders Claude to kill him.

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. Tanner is even given a female running animation, making fun of the strange way Tanner moves in Driver 2.
• Damaging or destroying Tanner's Esperanto before entering the blue marker will alert him, failing the mission.
