Tommy is informed that there's some sort of a stalker who knows Love Fist very well and refuses to leave them alone.

After making this threat, the psycho quickly retreats to his Sentinel.

The Psycho character was originally intented to appear without the groupie disguise at the end of Publicity Tour, according to an uncompilied mission script file (rock4.sc) accidentally left in the files of The Definitive Edition. However, the character model mentioned in the script is a placeholder cab driver pedestrian.
The name of this mission is a reference to the 1977 Talking Headssong of the same name.
In the mobile version of the game, the chanting of Love Fist fans is muted.
During the chase, the psycho's Sentinel doesn't have a blip on the radar. This bug was fixed in The Definitive Edition of the game.
During the chase, a scripted Trashmaster will come out of an alleyway across from the fire station when the player gets close by.
