- Hating The Haters. • 2008 Niko Bellic kills the homophobe who’s been bullying Bernie Crane in the park for the past few days.

Thug: What's your problem? F*g lover. Niko: Whatever you say, buddy. Unfortunately, for hitting my friend, I'm going to kick the shit out of you.

Bernie: Is there a name for that fitness plan? I'd take a class if I could be guaranteed buns like yours. Niko: It's called getting chased by the cops and being errand boy for the mob.

Packie: So when’s the fucking wedding?

Brucie: You think I'm getting old? I've got the abs of a seventeen year old gymnast and the forehead of a toddler, baby. Brucie don't need to settle down just yet! Niko: Sure, sure. Enjoy all that extra pussy then, Brucie. See you around.

Brucie: Nicky, the fuck is this? Roman's gettin’ hitched? The big man's hangin’ up his hunting rifle? More out there for ya, eh? RIGHT? More for me and you, buddy! Niko: I have to admit, that was not my first thought when I heard. I'm happy for him.

Mallorie: Roman and I decided to be honest with each other last night. He told me about Vlad. Niko: He did? Mallorie: Yeah, thanks for helping him get rid of the body. He has such fire in his heart. I guess when he found out about me and Vlad, he couldn't help himself. His love for me took over and he just had to kill him. Niko: That's exactly right, he's an old school romantic.

Roman: Niko, it's finally official. Since the moment I met Mallorie, I knew that she was the only woman for me. Niko: Apart from those other ones you screw, right? Roman: No, certainly not. They were just distractions from my one true love. I proposed to Mallorie, Niko. she said she would marry me. Now all we need to do is find you a wife and we can all settle down happily ever after.

Niko: Sorry, guys. We’re keeping this bitch.

- Ladies’ Night. • 2008 From the sky, Luis & Gay Tony follow Packie McReary to the rundown safehouse where Gracie’s being held captive.

Tony: She could be dead at the bottom of the West River by now. Luis: Or she could be driving some son of a bitch kidnapper crazy. I wouldn't wish that nasal whining voice on the worst guy out there. Gracie's got my backing over some chump hood from Dukes.

... • 2008 Tony got the call that Gracie has been kidnapped. Old Man Ancelotti called it a bluff until the McRearys showed they weren’t fucking around. Giovanni’s threatening to kill the nightclub owner and his bodyguard if they don’t handle this immediately.
