Tension

**Tension** is fourth chapter in *Hotline Miami*. This chapter is notable for having two encamped enemies on the second floor, as well as giving a explosive-rigged room on the second floor that serves as origin for Tony's mask. A captured 50 Blessings operative wearing a Tony Mask must be detonated by Jacket to complete the level. The level takes place on May 5th, 1989.

## Questions

**Don Juan**: また 会えたわね…　前に 会った時より　忙しく しているみたいね

(Oh. It's you again. It looks like you've been busy since we last met.)

**Richard** : オレのことを 思い出した　ようだな… そうだろ？　でも オレが誰なのかは　まだ わかってない　誰の紹介で 知り合ったかも　覚えて ないんだろ？

(I see that you remember me now. Don't you? But you still don't know who I am. You don't even know who introduced us, do you?)

**Rasmus** : どうして 戻ってきた？　おまえは いい人間じゃない　吐き気がする…

(Why did you come back here? You're not a nice person, are you? You make me sick!)

**Don Juan** : なんとなく 状況が　見えてきたわね…　でも 何か変だわ　しっくりこない点が　いくつか あるもの　それとも単に 今の状況が 気に入らないだけかしら

(A picture is starting to take form here... I wonder if it's accurate. Some pieces don't quite seem to fit. Or maybe I just don't like the way it looks.)

**Richard**: 時間だ…　また 会えるだろう　行く前に 今から４つの質問を出す　よーく 考えてみるといい　１つ…　他人を 傷つけることが 好きか？　２つ…　留守電に メッセージを　残しているのは 誰なのか？　３つ…　今おまえは どこにいる？　そして最後の質問は…　なぜオレ達が こうして 話をしているのか？　質問は 以上だ　またな…

(I think our time is up... But we'll meet again. Before you go, here's four questions to ponder. Question number one: Do you like hurting other people? Question number two: Who is leaving messages on your answering machine? Question number three: Where are you right now? And the final question: Why are we having this conversation? That's all for now. See you soon...)

## Apartment

* The usually made bed just has sheets and one pillow now.
* The Girl is on the couch in the living room, next to a vomit bucket. She's using the other pillow and the made bed's blanket.
* The bathtub is full.
* 4 pizza boxes on the floor by the front door
* Trash bag immediately outside front door.
* Newspaper clipping on the coffee table by Girlfriend's couch:
	+ *「…昨夜 映画プロデューサーが　自宅で死亡しているのを発見…　…監視カメラの記録映像によると　犯人はマスクを着用…　…現場から 身元不明の女性が　拉致された痕跡あり…」(...movie producer found dead in villa last night... ...surveillance tape reveals masked assailant... ...unidentified female abducted from the scene...)*

## Phone Call

   *「こんばんは　ブレイクだけど　頼みたい 仕事がある　停電が 発生していてね　ノースウェスト24番街だ　よろしく頼む　少し前に　別の者を 送ったんだが…　少々 不手際があったようだ　すぐに現地へ 向かってくれ　先方は 待ちわびてる ことだろう　きっちり 素早く片付けてほしい」*

*"Good evening! This is 'Blake' speaking. We have a job for you. There's a power outage... Over on 24th NE St. We want to take care of it. We already sent someone over a while ago... But it seems he didn't do a very good job. Head over there right away! They're expecting you. Keep it quick and clean!"*

Note: The address is actually displayed in the level as North \*West\* 24th Street. The phone call also swaps the street address' numbers and directions. This is one of five address incongruences in the game, the others being:

* Neighbors - Addresses are consistent but their numbers and directions are swapped.
* Push It Phone Call - 212 NE 24th Street / Push It Display Address - North East 165th
* Crackdown Phone Call - SW 121st Street Apt 35 / Crackdown Display Address - North East 24th Street
* Deadline Phone Call - 312 SE ST / Deadline Display Address - South East 24th Street

## Walkthrough

**Tension** is the first chapter to include dogs as enemies. This chapter contains more open spaces and long halls than previous chapters and can kill players who do not pay attention to their surroundings.

* First section: The two western most rooms can be cleared through rushing. It is best to wait for an ideal positioning before rushing the first room however. Before proceeding any further, make sure you have a melee weapon as the dog will patrol all the hallways and it will pounce upon you if you are not ready. Ambushing the dog by waiting around the corner from where it is approaching is very effective. The southern room can be also cleared by rushing provided that both enemies are close to the door. The two melee enemies outside will see you but if you door camp, they are made short work of. The top room can be cleared by waiting until the gun mobsters are next to the door and then rushing them. Lure the two melee mobsters outside and kill them by the door. Do not venture far into the room as the mobster on the other side of the window will kill you. To take out the last mobster, go down the hall and quickly throw a weapon at him.
* Second section: One mobster will enter through the first door and attack you. Be ready for him and camp that doorway. Kill the next two by rushing. In the next room, wait until the gun mobster is near the door and rush him, killing the other enemy as he approaches. Do not try to enter the left room as you will set off a bomb and kill yourself. The right room can be cleared by shooting both enemies or by waiting around the corner before the stationary enemy at the appropriate time and rushing them both. The top most enemy can be killed by a rush too. Now pick up a shotgun and aim at one of the wired doorways. Be as far away from the door as possible and then fire. The room should explode. Proceed to the last two enemies who are crouched behind knocked over tables with heavy machine guns. You need to bait them into coming out of cover by letting them see you, then shooting quickly before they can fire first.

## Outro

In Beard's convenience store:

*やあ　お元気そうで　ちょっと 心配してたんですよ　最近 この街も　妙に 物騒ですからね　こうも殺人事件が多いと ね…　お代は 結構ですよ　ウチらの 仲じゃないですか　財布はしまっといてください　それでは おやすみなさい*

*Oh, hi there! Good to see you! I was a bit worried about you... The city streets don't seem so safe anymore, y'know? What with all the killings and all that I mean. Don't worry about paying. You're my friend... Your money's no good here. Now have a nice night!*

Other people: A crowd of Russians beating a man in a Dennis Mask to death outside.
