==Walkthrough==
'''The Holland Play''' is a [[Missions in GTA IV|mission]] given to protagonist [[Niko Bellic]] by [[Playboy X]] from his [[Playboy X's Penthouse|penthouse]] in [[North Holland]], [[Algonquin]], [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]].
[[Niko Bellic]] speaks to Playboy at his apartment. Playboy asks him to kill Dwayne, and Niko says he will think about it. Soon afterwards, Niko will receive a call from Dwayne (or you can call him to save the wait), asking him to kill Playboy. The player must choose whether to kill Playboy or Dwayne. Playboy will eventually call Niko (or again, you can call him yourself to save time), and a red 'X' and 'D' will appear over Playboy and Dwayne's locations; make your choice by going to the target's respective location.


If your decision is to kill '''Dwayne Forge''', head over to Dwayne's apartment in the projects of [[North Holland]], [[Algonquin]]. Go up the stairs to the first apartment, and you will encounter Dwayne's hobo bodyguard, wielding a [[Baseball Bat|baseball bat]]; shoot him or beat him up. Go around the corner and face Dwayne.
==Description==
After completing both missions for both Dwayne and Playboy, Niko will receive a phone call from Playboy telling him to meet him at his apartment. Niko goes there and Playboy talks with him about Dwayne. He tells Niko he has tried everything he could to reason with Dwayne. Niko jokingly says to kill Dwayne and Playboy believes this is the only option left. Niko then expresses his distaste for conversion to which Playboy agrees. He tells Niko he will pay him after which Niko leaves the apartment to think.  


To kill Forge, there are two options -- you can kill him with one of the special [[Executions|execution]] scenes, or do it the conventional way. Rather than resist, Dwayne simply turns his back on you, disgusted at your decision — in the execution scene, Niko shoots him in the back.
After conversing with Playboy, Niko leaves the apartment and receives a phone call from Dwayne. He had heard that Playboy intended to have him killed. At first, Dwayne considered allowing himself to be killed, but felt he wasn't ready. He then asks Niko to kill Playboy for him because he couldn't do it himself as he used to be close to him when they were both younger. After talking with Dwayne, Niko is given the choice to kill either Playboy or Dwayne.


If your decision is to kill '''Playboy X''', head over to Playboy's [[Playboy X's Penthouse|penthouse]] in [[Northwood]], [[Algonquin]]. A [[cutscene]] plays, and Playboy realizes Niko is after him; he retreats to the balcony, leaving his cohorts to fight Niko. You will be behind some cover; shoot as many guards as you can from safety, then get out of cover and kill the rest. Go onto the balcony and chase Playboy down to street level. Some of his crew will get into a [[Patriot]] and try to gun you down. Take care of them, and corner Playboy X in an alleyway. He will drop his jammed [[Desert Eagle]].
If the player chooses to kill Dwayne, Niko will enter Dwayne's apartment and question his presence there. Niko responds by saying it isn't personal. He enters the apartment and disposes of a homeless man with a baseball bat. He finds Dwayne and prepares to kill him. Dwayne calls Niko a snake and Niko puts a pistol to Dwayne's head, turns away and shoots him in the back of the head. After this, Niko calls Playboy to tell him Dwayne is dead. Playboy pays Niko as promised but berates him for killing his former mentor. He then proceeds to cut all contact with Niko, calling him a "cold hearted killer" and telling him he hopes he can find something to live for.


You can either kill Playboy in the normal way, or use a pistol to trigger an execution scene, in which Playboy looks to the sky, and Niko shoots him through the lower jaw, the bullet exiting through the top of his head.
If the player chooses to kill Playboy, Niko will confront Playboy and other gangsters in his apartment. Playboy questions him, believing Dwayne was easily killed. Niko denies this and much to Playboy's surprise, reveals his intentions to kill him. Playboy flees and leaves the gangsters to kill Niko, although they fail. Niko then chases Playboy down a building and finally into an alleyway. Playboy tries to open a door which was locked. When Niko enters the alleyway, Playboy attempts to shoot his Desert Eagle but it gets jammed, leading him to throw it on the ground and surrender himself. Niko corners him and Playboy calls him cold and exclaims "he was someone" and he "changed the game". Niko aims a pistol at Playboy and tells him the game changed him before then shooting Playboy through the throat. Afterwards he calls Dwayne to tell him Playboy is dead. Dwayne tells Niko he should have watched Playboy closer when he was younger and feels astounded that his former friend could have betrayed him. He then tells Niko he has the deed to Playboy's penthouse and gives it to Niko telling him he can't keep it because it would make him remember Playboy. He also asks that Niko visit him sometime since he doesn't have any friends left.
 
There is a much more straightforward alternative — while you are in cover in Playboy's apartment, switch to your rocket launcher (if you've managed to get one — one can be found relatively nearby on the small rocky island north of Holland) and fire it at the bottom half of the open door through which Playboy escaped. Playboy will most likely be caught in the explosion and die while hiding behind the tree - re-aim and shoot again if that's not the case. The mission will pass as normal. If you still cannot manage to blow up Playboy, shoot his goons and go to the left of the big room. There you can snipe him, as you will have a clear view of his head.
