HELP

For a text explanation:

Before the mission hold down your submission key while you are in the taxi, then continue holding it (throughout the mission) until the cutscene at the laundromat is finished (any earlier and the game will crash). After the cutscene is finished (after you hear "It's a Triad ambush!") release the submission key, the pager will ring, you can now cancel taxi and redo the mission or grab the Borgnine.

For this to work you must have whatever key you have for submissions (I think it is caps lock by default) bound to the same key that lets you look back on foot.
