 The Grove Street Families are in a sorry state upon CJ's return in 1992. Repeated pressure from the Ballas and Vagos, the breaking up into different rival sets, their unwillingness to keep up with changes to make money or gain respect (refusal to sell drugs), and the heavy influence of crack cocaine in their territory has led to their downfall into the weakest and least influential gang in Los Santos.
+The death of Beverly Johnson causes Sweet to [[Cell Phone|phone]] his brother [[Carl Johnson|Carl]] in [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]]. Carl [[Big Smoke (mission)|returns]] for the [[Sweet & Kendl|funeral]]. Carl, initially intending to return to Liberty City, decides to stay and help the gang overcome the crack influence and the Ballas. The gang's fortunes, with Carl performing various jobs, manages to tackle the Ballas threat, strengthen the Families, [[Cleaning the Hood|resolve the crack-cocaine problem in GSF territory]] and even [[Doberman|takes control]] of the [[Glen Park]] neighborhood. The three sub-groups also [[Reuniting the Families|attempt to reconcile their differences]], although this was interrupted by the [[SWAT]].
-The Families continued to lose influence and later unity when the gangs factions began to fight against each other. The gang also began to lose influential members such as [[Big Devil]], [[Little Devil]] and [[Tony (GSF)|Tony]], all of whom by [[1992]] were deceased. [[B Dup]] and [[Big Bear]] also began to move into the drugs trade, with Bear becoming heavily addicted and the man servant of Dup. The gang also split into two subsets; Seville Boulevard Families and Temple Drive Families. The Ballas, becoming more powerful and influential, decide to [[The Introduction|try and kill]] Sweet in a drive-by shooting but succeed in killing his [[Beverly Johnson|mother]].
+The Ballas, however, continue their assault by [[House Party|attempting to take control]] of Ganton and Grove Street itself but fail as CJ, Sweet and Grove Street members are able to successfully defend their territory. Later, during the mission "[[The Green Sabre]]" the Grove Street Families and the Ballas engage in a gang war under the [[Mulholland Intersection]]. However, Sweet is hit and arrested, then taken to a prison-hospital; while CJ is abandoned from Los Santos and warned to stay away from Grove Street by CRASH.
-The death of Beverly Johnson causes Sweet to [[Cell Phone|phone]] his brother [[Carl Johnson|Carl]] in [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]]. Carl [[Big Smoke (mission)|returns]] for the [[Sweet & Kendl|funeral]]. Carl, initially intending to return to Liberty City, decides to stay and help the gang overcome their arch rivals. The gang's fortunes, with Carl performing various jobs, manages to tackle the Ballas threat and even [[Doberman|takes control]] of the [[Glen Park]] neighborhood. The three sub-groups also [[Reuniting the Families|attempt to reconcile their differences]], although this was interrupted by the police.
+During this time, the Families lose all of their influence and essentially become inactive. They become subservient to the Ballas and Los Santos Vagos. The Ballas then resume the spread of crack cocaine into Grove Street and Ganton again. Members of the Families are either dead, in hiding or are turned into hopeless crack addicts. The Ballas then eventually control the entirety of what had been GSF territory - including Ganton and Grove Street, [[Playa Del Seville]], [[Temple]], Vinewood Cemetery and [[Santa Maria Beach]]. Family members that do remain are forced to run drugs between a [[Yay Factory|drugs factory]] in [[Doherty]], [[San Fierro]] back to Los Santos for Big Smoke. Carl, after becoming a leading criminal figure in both San Fierro and [[Las Venturas]], returns to Los Santos to [[A Home in the Hills|take control]] of [[Madd Dogg|Madd Dogg's]] [[Madd Dogg's Crib|mansion]]. While at the mansion he is contacted by undercover government agent [[Mike Toreno]], [[Highjack|for]] [[Interdiction|whom]] [[Verdant Meadows (mission)|he]] [[Learning to Fly|had]] [[N.O.E.|previously]] [[Stowaway|worked]], and [[Vertical Bird|steals]] a military jet and destroys five spy boats. Carl manages to perform the task and is rewarded by Toreno with the [[Home Coming|release]] of Sweet.
-The Ballas, however, continue their assault by [[House Party|attempting to take control]] of Ganton and later work with [[Frank Tenpenny]], the head of C.R.A.S.H., to set up Sweet in a [[The Green Sabre|shoot out under]] the [[Mulholland Intersection]]. Sweet is shot during the shoot out while Carl attempts to fend the Ballas off but both are arrested by the police. Sweet is taken to prison but Carl is taken to a [[Angel Pine|small town]] where he is manipulated into doing jobs for C.R.A.S.H.
+Carl attempts to convince Sweet to join him away from Los Santos but returns to take control of Ganton from the Ballas when an adamant Sweet informed him he would not be leaving. Crack dealers in Grove Street are also killed. The reformed Families, now being led by both Sweet and Carl, begin to exert their influence on the city again, including [[Beat Down on B Dup|taking control of Glen Park]] and [[Grove 4 Life|Idlewood]]. The gang, however, finally re-assert their dominance in the city when Carl and Sweet [[End of the Line|killed Smoke, destroyed his crack palace and caused Tenpenny's death]] during the final mission. This caused the crack-cocaine influence in Los Santos to massively decrease.
-During this time the Families had become subservient to the Ballas and Los Santos Vagos. Families members also began to run drugs between a [[Yay Factory|drugs factory]] in [[Doherty]], [[San Fierro]] back to Los Santos.

+If the player wishes, they can take over all territory from the Ballas and the Vagos through teh gang war mini-game - making the Grove Street Families the largest and most powerful gang in Los Santos.
