I think the real question to ask here is what would have happened if they had sent Jake to stop Biker.

From what you can read into Biker's personality from his apartment, he would have seen Jake's nunchucks, laughed, called him a nerd, given him a swirly, and then rode off on his bike with the prom queen, throwing dust and exhaust into Jake's face.

He would have thrown the golf club at Biker and saved us several minutes monotony.

EDIT: Is the level editor out yet so we can have something new to discuss? I grow tired of arguing nerd terms and whether this game is hard or not.

I think everyone talking about why 50B had Jacket killed is missing the forest for individual trees. Imho it's as simple as 'Neighbors': when Jacket encounters Biker he's in the same room with the person who knows more than anyone else involved about who's making these phonecalls and has all the info he could need to track 50B, and no matter how you slice it that's too big of a risk. Like, the textbook definition of "knows too much". Jake's secret ending, especially lends credence to this. I'm just surprised they didn't execute him sooner.

They might have thought he was a Russian because he was in the same room with Russians, too.

I've managed to get it to happen a few times now, but a neat little thing is on level 3 of Withdrawal, if you kill the last guy on the level and get 'killed' yourself, you will sort of be in a permanent limbo.

I'm guessing this is because there's nobody left to drag you into the room and take you out, so you just bleed out forever.

Well what the poo poo, Demolition is just... how do you even get the gun before the black man smacks you down? Unless it's supposed to be lightning fast reflexes or something like that, then I've no idea what to do other than abuse level geometry and boundaries.
Any advice?

This took me about 20 tries to get the timing right but yes. Knock out shotgun man and grab the gun while fancy dodging fat boy. Shoot both. It feels amazing when you pull it off

Melee the first few guys then throw a weapon at the guy with the gun. Pick his gun up, don't worry about killing him at first. You're as fast as the black dude so you can pretty much kite him forever, don't rush unnecessarily. The gun guy is also on a patrol route, so you can wait to enter the door until he's in a position you like.

We've been arguing about it for some pages, but the fact is that both Jacket and Biker are very much alive after their meeting at the phone company.

The most sensible explanation I've heard so far is that after an even struggle Jacket got his rear end kicked, limped back home and just glossed the whole thing over in his feverish headshot coma dream.

Biker also mentions in his face-to-face that he couldn't puzzle together a satisfactory explanation for the calls and the janitors also lived to visit and mock Richter in prison two years later, so I'm guessing the "official" epilogue was that Biker didn't find the password, took some lip from the janitors and left without deigning to murder them.
