Not to be confused with Nightclub Management in Grand Theft Auto Online.

As one of Tony Prince's club managers, Luis can work nights at the clubs, which includes dealing with issues like club security and unruly club patrons, as well as tending to the many needs of the Liberty City party-going elite.

Club Management is a side-mission featured in The Ballad of Gay Tony.

Description[]

Tony: “Luis, what's gotten into you? Why haven't you been helping out at the clubs?”
Luis: “You serious? I been running round this city getting shot at by assholes, doing hits for assholes, and hanging out with assholes, so we can keep these places running. What else do you expect me to be doing?”
Tony: “Standards have slipped Lou. We're dead without this revenue stream. Just keep an eye on things, okay?
Dessie's at Maisonette every night. Just talk to him and he'll explain everything.”

Luis: “Okay, T. Put your feet up. Relax. Enjoy yourself.”
Tony's phone call

This side-mission is not available immediately - Luis Lopez receives a call from Tony Prince asking Luis to go and help out at the club more after completing both Practice Swing and Chinese Takeout. Tony will also send a text message reminder.

Go to the ClubManagement-TBoGT-RadarIcon icon in Maisonette 9 during its opening times of 9pm-6am to partake in the club management job.

The mission takes place in Maisonette 9. The club is open from 9pm until 6am. On entering the management office to the left of the main door, the player can elect to start the job. A short cutscene shows Luis changing into a suit and earpiece while Joni makes comment, often belittling Luis' genitalia.

Club Management becomes unavailable following Ladies Half Price. It becomes available again after completing Departure Time, the final storyline mission.

Description[]

Club Management[]

The objective of Club Management is to supervise the main areas of the club and deal with troublemakers when they appear.

Luis cannot take shots at the bar or participate in the champagne drinking game during Club Management due to the fact he is working.

Joni will direct Luis to the main dancefloor initially, where Luis will find a marked station where he will stand and watch over the area in First-Person View. After a few moments he will comment that there is nothing wrong there, and a marker will show on the radar for the next randomized station for him to check.

Usually after every third uneventful station, Joni will call and direct him to a specific station where she has seen something on the CCTV monitors in the office. On arrival at that station, Luis will enter first-person view (except in the mensroom) and find and identify the troublemaker. Joni's CCTV camera view will zoom in and she will encourage him to deal with the problem.

A short cutscene will play, with variations depending on the troublemaker type. Luis will usually have to forcefully eject the troublemaker and will comment to Dessie about them on the way back inside.

Luis will then be directed to another marked station to continue looking for more troublemakers whereupon the cycle of uneventful stations and Joni's directed position will repeat.

The player can continue managing the club until 6am closing time if they are not interrupted by Dessie with a celebrity job, or they can manually stop at any time by returning to the office.

Stations[]

There are 5 standing stations throughout the club that Luis will need to attend, the order is selected randomly after the initial dancefloor station each time the Club Management is performed. The mens washroom will only be a location directed by Joni, it will not be selected as a random observation station.

Troublemakers[]

There are 5 different types of troublemakers that can be encountered. All but the bar tab evader will need to be forcefully thrown out.

Joni's Interruptions[]

From time to time during Club Management, Joni will interrupt and be shown on CCTV in the management room or will call to Luis' earpiece with an excuse for him to come urgently into the management room. A variety of cutscenes will follow, including having her dress rolled up and giving him a blowjob, casual sex with Luis while leaning her over the desk, and a short lap-dance. Having sex with Joni will refill Luis' health like using the first aid pack in the security room. If Luis has previously had sex with a girl in the women's bathroom after dancing, Joni will jealously scream at him about that. At other times she will call and question Luis about the nature of their relationship, ending with her telling him to forget about it and thinking of starting taking meds.

After these interruptions, Luis is directed to another station, or the player can choose to stop the Club Management as they will be standing in the office.

Dessie's Interruptions[]

For the first eight times Luis works in the club, after performing at least one troublemaker ejection, Dessie will interrupt the management jobs and alert Luis to the needs of a celebrity VIP. These eight tasks will always follow the same set sequence. There is no set time limit on these tasks (except for the second part of Kerry McIntosh's one) and it is possible to return to the club and gain entry after the 6am closing time.

A black Schafter is usually parked in front of the main door as an official business car for Luis to use to complete the jobs.

Tony: “Hey, Lou. I wanted to say what a good job you been doing with the celebrity clientele. Truly excellent work.”
Luis: “Thank you, man. It ain't exactly the highlight of my day. They like real people only without the humanity or a sense of humor.”
Tony: “And that's why we love them so. How about this, from now on I can get someone else to handle the VIP shit?”
Luis: “No more ass wiping? That sounds hot.”
Tony: “If you still want to help Dessie out with the management stuff that's great, but no more celeb whispering.”
Luis: “I'm real happy, Tone. I'll catch you soon.”
Tony's phone call

After assisting on the eighth occasion, Luis will receive a call from Tony thanking him for doing such a good job taking care of the club's celebrity clientele, promising him that he will get someone else to handle VIP requests from then on, much to Luis' relief. After this the player will no longer be interrupted to run errands for celebrities during Club Management.

Celebrities[]

Celebrity Description Image
Clay "Pain Giver" Jackson


Jackson will be at Hercules in the back of a PMP 600 with his partner, Jacob, surrounded by paparazzi. Luis will need to get in and evade the photographers, before dropping Jackson and Jacob at The Majestic Hotel. After exiting the alleyway, 4 paparazzi will give chase on two PCJ 600s. If Luis harms any of the photographers, or lets them get too many pictures, the mission will fail.

ClubManagement-TBoGT-ClayPGJackson-PaparazziChasing

Luis will be told that McIntosh is at Hercules and is demanding take-out from the Iron Belly Deli in Bohan. On the drive back to Hercules to deliver it, McIntosh's assistant Danni repeatedly calls Luis to tell him that Kerry is becoming agitated about the food.

Glitch[]

  • On the PC version, when Luis receives a message from Dessie, although the camera is locked on Luis' head, moving the mouse still causes his head to move, as it would in normal viewing mode.

Trivia[]

  • If the last club management mission is completed after Departure Time, Luis will not receive the call from Tony, due to the fact that Tony's number is removed from Luis' phone after the mission.
  • Poppy and Kerry will mention their appearance in these missons in their dialog during the Grand Theft Auto Online Nightclub Celebrity missions.
