Script
Ray: Yeah, yeah ,yeah. Sure, Phil, sure. Hey, Phil, listen. You know me, and I know you. Ah, I didn't mean nothin' by it. Hey, take it easy. Oh, Phil, take it easy. Hey listen tell Jimmy I said hello. Okay. I'm sorry. Goodbye. We got a problem.
Niko: Who? You and me?
Ray: Yeah. I got two options. Option one, you ripped me off. Option two, Luca and his buddies ripped us both off.
Niko: Hey, hey! I left them with the stuff to bring to you, as instructed.
Ray: Maybe you're in on it.
Niko: Maybe I am, but if you thought that, I wouldn't be standing here right now.
Ray: You ain't as dumb as you look. Luca hangs out in Castle Gardens. Go see him, go get my stuff back so everyone can get paid. Now.
Niko: Right.
(Niko finds Luca and his crew at Castle Gardens)
Luca: Las Venturas, baby. We'll be our own bosses.
Niko: Luca, I need that ice back.
Luca: I dunno what you talkin' about, Nicky. I gave every one of those diamonds to Ray.
Niko: Now we all know that that's not true.
Tuna: Fuck you, you cabbage-eating prick. Who says it weren't you that made off with 'em? That's what I'm telling Ray.
Luca: The game's up, boys. We're outta here.
(Luca and his crew flee and Niko chases. They eventually crash in Middle Park and run into the toilet block)
Tuna: Fuck you, Nicky, fuck you.
Tuna: I'm gonna clip you then I'm gonna go clip Ray Bo - fucking - ccino.
Tuna: None of you Russians got no respect for nothing.
Tuna: Ray ain't never gonna trust a fucking rat. Remember that.
Tuna: Shove this up your ass.
Tuna: You're a piece of shit, Nicky. You ratted us out.
(Niko kills Tuna and Johnny and looks for Luca in the stalls)
Niko: You're making things real hard on yourself.
Niko: I'm going to find you, Luca.
Niko: Luca, come out and we'll talk about this.
(Niko finds Luca in a stall and he pleads for his life)
Luca: You gotta make a play for yourself, Jesus.
Luca: Ray ain't gonna give you shit for helping him out, Nicky.
Luca: You can have Tuna and Johnny's cut. Come on.
Luca: You and me can go to Venutras, no one's ever gonna find us.
Luca: We'll split the ice. You'll be a rice man, Nicky.
(Niko kills Luca and takes back the diamonds. He then calls Ray)
Niko: I took out Luca's crew and I got your diamonds.
Ray: What do you mean, you took 'em out? I just wanted you to get the ice back. I didn't say nothing to you about kill those boys.
Niko: Whatever, they're dead and I've got the stuff. You want to get your hands on it, come meet me at the bridge in Middle Park.
(Niko meets Ray on the bridge)
Ray: Thanks, Nicky. I guess you never know who's gonna stab you in the back, eh?
Niko: Thanks for the advice.
Failing the mission

Niko: Hey Ray, the diamonds - I'm not going to be able to get my hands on them. You're going to have to do without.
