It is possible to use the parser or F4 to open the door before arriving at the final destination. This can be done just before the text boxes pop up confirming your arrival. This can cause the driving music to linger on the new location.

This Sounds Weird...

It is possible for the music instruments to get messed up if a background music (cove, airport) is still playing when it should not be after the score jingle is played.

The circumstances behind this are... unusual to say the least.
  • The player must use the Honk if You Hate Cops glitch found with the personal car to drive to Marie's, observe the kidnapping, then report to the captain. This skips Keith radioing in the kidnapping.
  • The game speed must be set to maximum (Because only 1.000.001 has a speed setting of 0, this is (probably) the only version this will happen.
  • Drive to the airport (Get this part rolling immediately, the driver timer is at 1, atm, meaning you will get in trouble after you get in the car).
  • When Keith radios in the kidnapping, the player must hold down the [ENTER] key to skip through this part of the dialogue.

If this is done right, Keith will report the kidnapping of Marie Wilkans and if the script is running quickly enough, it will appear to skip the soft 'stop' in the script and roll over to the Keith's final comments about the trip to Steelton (and needing another smoke), which normally are impossible to see. However, this may be tricky to catch/read because of how the [ENTER] key must be held down during the reporting of the kidnapping.

Yes Yes Yes ? Yes

The command "stop chase" is normally supposed to be used in order to return to Cotton Cove after losing Bains in the chase. Instead, it RESTARTS the chase sequence and can be used to endlessly restart the script once the player gains back control.

"Pursue Bains" also has the same results. It appears as though the game ignores the "stop" part of the command.

Woody is unimportant, obviously.

'drive 5556 fig ave.' will give the response "You have hotter leads to follow". This remains unexplained, though the envelope sent to Woody Roberts has the address "5556 OAK ST" on it, suggesting (at one point) it may have been an option to visit.

Lonny what?!

Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes

The player can drive to 222 Lonny Peach (not West Peach) and arrive at Marie's. A similar thing can be done with the warehouse, as typing 160 Lonny Rose will also work.
  • The reason this works is due to the game defining lonny and west as the same word in the code.
