Grand Opening
Jonnie wants Mike to blow up a disco across the street because their grand opening is going to bring the wrong type of people to the area.
Jonnie | Hey, Mike. Thanks for comin'. I got a real problem that's happening right across the street. They're puttin' up a three-level disco called Diamond Sky and the grand opening is tomorrow night. It's going to attract the wrong type of clientele to the area, which is bad for my business. |

Mike | Let me guess, you want me to torch the place. |
Jonnie | Well if a certain car were to be placed at a certain spot and had a major malfunction - I wouldn't be displeased. Take the Idaho out front - it's a damn eyesore. The windows were shattered by the bass vibrations coming out of that place. Drive the car over to 8-Ball's shop and keep it in reasonable shape - he'll set you up. |
The Idaho which Jonnie wants you to use has been badly damaged already, so you've got to get to 8-Ball's and back without wrecking the car completely.
As you get in, Mike voices his displeasure.
Make your way North East towards 8-Ball's bomb shop and park up in the blue square when you arrive.
Slick | Hey, Mike. People 'round here call me Slick... probably 'cause I'm covered in grease most times. 8-Ball told me he's in a bit of a jam and is keeping a low profile. Don't ask me about the details because I don't know but he said he'd contact you. |

Mike | That's not like 8-Ball to be on the run. Something or someone must have him real spooked. |
Slick | He took off real quick... On to those car bombs, they're unstable. Try not to accidentally set the car on fire. |
The game will then explain how to use car bombs. Select the bomb weapon by pressing the Select button until it's highlighted in your inventory, then press A + B together when in the vehicle to arm the bomb. Once outside the car, select the detonator weapon and press A to trigger the explosion.
You're also told you can come back to 8-Ball's shop to purchase car bombs from now on. It's marked by a bomb icon on the radar.
Make your way back to the bar where you'll find the target disco across the street, again being careful not to totally destroy the car on the journey back.
Once you arrive, park the car in the blue square in front of the disco. Jonnie will message telling Mike he's in the right place.
Arm the bomb by selecting the bomb weapon and pressing A + B together.
Get out of the car and move away from the area then switch weapons to the detonator and press A to trigger the explosion.
Sit back and watch the fireworks...
Jonnie sends another urgent pager message and it turns out the explosion alerted the police, so you're now given a 3-star wanted level which you need to escape.
I chose to head to the nearby hideout and use police bribes from the hideout items (which you'll unlock if you've done at least 10 vigilante missions).
If you haven't unlocked any bribes, you could go around collecting the ones hidden around the map, or head directly to the Pay 'n' Spray to lose your wanted level.
Either way, once you're clear of the cops, Jonnie will want to see you back at the bar.
Walk into the blue circle when you arrive.
Mission Passed!
After the mission, you'll receive a message from Jonnie telling you to get back to the bar because he's in need of some serious firepower.
