Alternatively you can obtain a taxi of your own and ram Curly Bob's taxi out of the way, parking your taxi in its place, or park your taxi directly behind his taxi parrallel to the road. If done correctly, he will get into your taxi instead and you can drive him directly to the harbour. After the deal it is easier to run Curly Bob over with your car, but be careful as he is carrying a shotgun. |

His taxi will not show up on the radar so you have to be careful not to lose him, however there is also a 'spookometer' warning the player if they get too close, making this somewhat tedious. This is the only use of a 'spookometer' in the entire game.

When Curly Bob gets in your taxi, you just have to drive him to the docks, making it relatively easy.[2] Note that the player's taxi has to be in mint condition, otherwise Curly will get into another taxi. If both player's and mission defined taxis are smashed up, Curly will become spooked and the mission will fail.
- Curly Bob will leave the club at a pre-defined time, even if the player is not around the area. If this happens, the player can simply drive to Portland Docks and the cut-scene will play out like normal, but without having to tail the taxi or take a taxi to drive Curly Bob.
- Curly Bob can sometimes commit suicide by going over into the sea; if he does that it will not affect the mission,and will save ammo that the player would need in later missions. if he doesn't do that it is more than likely he would flee from Portland Harbor and sometimes run into oncoming traffic; if he does, there is a small chance that he would get knocked over and that would make it easier for the player to kill him with a baseball bat.
