Script

Niko: I'm here to see Mr. Gravelli. I was sent by a mutual friend.

Bodyguard: C'mon. Uh,someone here to see you. Here.

Gravelli: So you're the one who's getting involved with that nonsense for my... dear friend James Pegorino.

Niko: I don't know what the...

Gravelli: Spare me. please, I'm an old man. I ain't got much time left. Our mutual friend told me everything. Thank you. it made me laugh...

Niko: My pleasure.

Gravelli: People are so damn vain.

Niko: Some people.

Gravelli: All people. Even you, even me, an old man facing the end... and I still care, care how I look, care that when I shit myself, the pretty nurse has to clean it up... it's ridiculous.

Niko: Yeah, well uh... you know...

Gravelli: And I care about my legacy. I've worked hard for this, this line of work. Now, some Russian assholes think they can march in and take control of rackets my family has run for fifty years.

Niko: You mean fifty years of you bleeding the city dry might finally come to an end?

Gravelli: I know, it's a terrible tragedy. But if it wasn't me, it would just be someone else. So it might as well be me.

Niko: Yes.

Gravelli: Let me tell you - that faggot friend of yours, Bernie Crane? His boyfriend... he's being blackmailed. By them damn Russians. They want him to put certain contracts up for tender, windows, bus lines, cleaning. Ones we control. These Russian fucking bastards are trying to finish us.

Niko: What do you want me to do about it?

Gravelli: I want you to work with me.

Niko: In exchange for what?

Gravelli: The police have a file on you an inch think... in exchange for that... in exchange for that guy you've been asking about being brought here from wherever it is he's hiding, Switzerland or some shit.

Niko: Okay. Good. What do you want me to do?

Gravelli: A good friend of mine is coming into town to give a speech on the new threat to Liberty City - Russian organized crime. I got a feeling some people ain't gonna want that speech to happen. Maybe the guy you love, this Dimitri Rascalov, has an interest in keeping this story out of the press. Make sure our boys gets to City Hall. He's coming in from upstate. He'll be at Grand Easton Terminal on Bismarck. Thank you.

Failing the mission

Bobby Jefferson dies

Niko: You ain't gonna hear no speech at City Hall today.

Gravelli: What do you mean? Bobby Jefferson is dead? I expected better from a man with your reputation. I guess we keep making the same mistakes no matter how old we get. Goodbye.
