Part 56

Exit the car with Paulie.

Approach the red doors with Paulie; you can either kick one open or let Paulie do it. Remember Paulie's instruction: no shooting.

(Optional: Using mods like "MafiaCon1.2" or "Mafia Hack V1.03" allows Tommy to go through a wall near the red doors to find the city councillor's son and his friend. This affects future cutscenes and allows Tommy to deal with some gangsters early.)

Proceed to the far left end of the lot with Paulie.

Paulie will confront a gang member in an alley. Assist Paulie in the ensuing melee fight.

Clear out a couple more gang members in the area or the adjoining lot. They use fists, Knuckle Dusters, Baseball bats, and Crowbars. Keep moving to avoid clinches and lure attackers towards Paulie.

Move through the alley into another lot and fight four more gang members.

Enter another lot via an alley where a non-gang member thanks you for dealing with the punks, mentioning one is the son of a city hall official.

Equip the Colt 1911. Proceed across the lot, up the fire escape ramp, drop onto cylindrical containers and crates, and land on the ground.

Run out from between buildings to the right side of a porch, then get behind the corner across from a gangster with an S&W Model 27 Magnum.

(Alternative: Run out from between buildings and shoot the gangster with the Magnum before he reacts.)

Stay behind cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects) at the corner to shoot two men with Colt Detective Specials who come over the wall.

Move out to shoot the gangster with the Magnum if you haven't already. Collect weapons.

Use the corner for cover to shoot a gangster with a Colt 1911 in an alley diagonally across the next area.

Enter the alley and shoot a gangster with an S&W Model 27 Magnum further back.

Shoot two gangsters with a Colt Detective Special and an S&W Model 10 M&P at the end of the alley.

A game save occurs.

A cutscene (a non-interactive cinematic the game plays automatically) plays where Tommy and Paulie approach two gangsters by a car. After an exchange, Paulie shoots at them, and they drive away.

Get into your car with Paulie and begin the chase.

(Optional: A Plank weapon can be found near an accident site north of "LITTLE ITALY" on the map. Interacting with the survivors may allow Tommy to get the Plank, but this can cause the gangster's car to get too far away.)

If the gangster's car gets too far, a pocket watch appears, giving you two minutes to catch up or fail the mission. The last save loads to the cutscene before the chase upon failure.

Follow the gangsters' car route: southwest, west, left, south across the walk, south through the alley east of Salieri's Bar, right, right north through an alley, crash through a red gate, left, left, right through an alley, west on the street, right to a dead end.
