Trivia
- An easier way to complete the mission, is after the have sniped the four men from the rooftops, instead of fighting your way through all of Bulgarin's bodyguards, jump off the building you started off from, and you will see scaffolding on the side of a bar. Jump onto that and quickly find a car nearby, and zip out of Little Italy. This is a very easy way to get the time objective on this mission.
- This is the only time a decapitation is seen in GTA IV and its episodes.
- Armando Torres can appear in this mission if Luis does not have a sniper.
