Michael arrives at Richards Majestic Productions to meet up with his friend, Solomon Richards.
Thankfully for the old guy, Michael arrives in time to save him from Rocco Pelosi and his accomplice, Gianni, who is currently attacking him for apparently breaching a deal.
As you may recall, Michael already put a beatdown on Rocco when Solomon asked him to convince the director and one of the main actors for his movie, Meltdown.
As soon as Michael arrives, Rocco and Gianni get in their getaway car.
Michael quickly checks up on Solomon and sees that he’s alright. Enraged by what happened, Solomon asks Michael to chase down the two goons and deal with them for good.
This officially starts the Ballad of Rocco Mission.

After the opening cutscene with Solomon, Rocco, and Gianni, quickly get in the Gallivanter Baller in the movie set’s parking area.
Chase down Rocco and Gianni as they drive off. Stay close to them as much as possible.
Once you get a clear shot, start shooting at Rocco and his associate.
After killing them both, leave the area as quickly as possible.
As soon as he’s in the clear, Michael will give Solomon Richards a call. You can either accept his invitation or decline it.
