Alright, let's get this 'Marriage Counselling' mission sorted in Grand Theft Auto V. It kicks off at Michael's place, and yeah, things are a bit tense because your wife is apparently entertaining the tennis coach. Don't worry, we'll get through this together.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First up, you'll need to hop into Michael's car. Your objective is to chase down that tennis coach. Just follow him all the way up to his house out in the canyon. He's not exactly driving like a getaway driver, so keep a steady pace and you should be fine.
  2. 2
    Once you've caught up to him at his place, it's time for some demolition. You need to hook Michael's car onto the support pillars of the building. Once that's done, just hit the gas and accelerate away. This should bring the whole place crashing down.
  3. 3
    After the building collapses, you'll be heading back towards your home. On the way, you'll have a couple of enemy vehicles to deal with. Luckily, Franklin will be there to help you out with some drive-by shooting.
  4. 4
    Finally, just head back to Michael's home to wrap up the mission.
Tips for Gold Medal
  • Not a Scratch: Honestly, this one isn't too bad. The game gives you some leeway. The windows can be smashed, and the car can take a good beating with dents. During the initial chase, just stick close to the coach; he's slow enough. When the drive-by shooting starts, switch to Franklin as soon as the game prompts you. This way, Michael can focus on driving, and you avoid unnecessary crashes.
  • Mission Time: To nail the 5:30 time limit, make sure to skip all the cutscenes you can and deal with those gunmen quickly. It's definitely achievable if you keep moving.
  • Drive-by Killer: This is probably the trickiest part – you need to take out 3 out of the 4 guys in the pursuing vehicles. The best strategy is to stop your truck, switch to a decent pistol or Micro SMG, and wait for them to pull up behind you. As Michael, quickly gun them all down before the game prompts you to switch to Franklin. If you miss one, no sweat – just switch to Franklin and finish him off when you get the chance.
