  1. That's why I love your videos, you really went above and beyond to show all of these characters lore, other youtubers wouldn't have gone to such effort. Also, props to Rockstar's attention to detail, they went to such effort to even create a cover up story for one of the heists. Really clever

  2. the only inconsistency with Lester not knowing what happened to Trevor is that Lester passes the online character's contact info to Trevor for the Series A funding heist. could be possible that he wasn't aware it was Trevor but it is worth noting that happened

  3. Dave's dialogue definitely indicates that others in the FIB knew about the deal with Townley
    maybe just his old supervisor, maybe the greater FIB
    while it's not a legal form of witness protection, i wouldn't put a deal this shady above the agency

  4. I just want to point out that Michael made millions and straightened out his life all because Amanda banged his tennis coach😂 (or he dies because Amanda banged the tennis coach, but who choses that option anyway?)

  5. What makes 0 sense to me is you mention Michael don't kill unnecessarily which is true

    But during reuniting the family he says he'll put Amanda in the ground just like everyone else

    This kinda implies Michael has killed unnecessarily prior to the failed north Yankton job no? Like I need some context on that because why would he threaten Amanda by saying that if he refuses to kill unnecessarily well aside from all the cops he's probably killed over his career

  6. So basically we are supposed to turn on the radio and read the news right after every mission? Hell, in GTA 6 Im gonna take 5 hours before each missions to read the news and search the local chattbox radio

  7. I did always think the ending where Franklin kills Trevor didn't make much sense because it seemed like Devin was so powerful that Steve Haines wouldn't be able to defend Franklin/Michael. Also he's an asshole with little reason to even try to keep them safe from the billionaire with a grudge.

  8. 53:27 The Paleto Score isn't only for the Cargobob, it's for all the equipment like that big ass container and such. Also the same money is later used to fund other FIB operations like The Bureau Raid.

  9. The problem with Tao Cheng is that the 100% gold medal for that mission requires you to kill Mr.Cheng with an Sticky bomb and I doubt that they mean when he is out of the car (so that you only kill Mr.Cheng and not Tao too… I am unsure if the 100% challanges are part of the story or only made without the intend of being part of the games story.

  10. 57:03 another small and minor detail to add on to the fact that the cops were following Lamar, while Franklin is climbing on the side of the truck he will say "ain't nobody tailin' you, huh, Lamar?" and Lamar will respond.

  11. Again, I feel like soooo many of these questions and misconceptions stem from people applying GTA logic to the story.

    There are hints at that (Michael mentioning he ran someone over on the way to therapy, Lamar wantonly wasting people and starting shootouts, Trevor… everything about Trevor), but generally real world logic still applies.

    Sandy Shores may be a few minutes drive in the actual game, but it's meant to reference middle-of-nowhere rural desert areas in California and Nevada. Trevor would have been untraceable there, even by a genius like Lester.

  12. I think you might have missed a detail, one of the ways Trevor would have known Micheal was alive is the news broadcast after the jewelry store heist the witness repeats Micheal's catchphrase, Trevor saw that news clip on TV. It's been a while for me though so I might be misremembering.

  13. There is a lot I don't know about Amanda before she met Michael, and I know people did extensive digging into the GTA V goldmine, but they come up empty in terms of Amanda, Jimmy, and Tracey.
