Diamonds: Difference between revisions

After buying the diamonds, Luis noticed Johnny approaching and bundled Tony into a limosine, while shouting to Evan, who was holding the diamonds, to get them to Maisonette 9. Johnny sent numourous Lost members after Luis and Tony while he chased Evan. Luis and Tony managed to fend off the bikers but Evan was caught by Johnny and killed, and the diamonds being taken. Johnny followed Ray's orders to hide the diamonds in two trash bags, which would later be [[Taking in the Trash|collected by Niko Bellic, Luca Silvestri and his crew while disguised as binmen]].

Eventually, Ray found a buyer for the diamonds in the form of Isaac Roth and the Jewish Mob. He sent Johnny and Niko to do the[[Museum Piece| deal with Isaac]]. Niko took the diamonds to the [[Libertonian Museum]] where [[Collector's Item|Johnny would meet him]]. Ray's plan was for them to successfully sell the diamonds, with Johnny and Niko each taking half of the profits.

Because Johnny stole the money, Ray sent [[No Way on the Subway|Niko to kill Johnny's best friend, Jim Fitzgerald]], after [[Was It Worth It?|failing to do so himself]]. Johnny was then attacked by a number of hitmen but managed to survive, only to learn that Jim had indeed been killed. Johnny was then [[Get Lost|advised by an aquaintance]]; congressman [[Thomas Stubbs III]] to stay away from Ray, as Stubbs correctly predicted that Ray would be either dead or in jail within a month.

Isaac Roth meanwhile, having regained conciousness in the museum, fled to the Majestic hotel and began falsely accusing Ray of setting up the deal in order to keep the both diamonds and the money. Isaac threatened to have Ray killed, so Ray sent[[Late Checkout| Niko to the Majestic to finish off Isaac and the Jewish Mob]]. After doing this, Niko refused to do any more cleanup work for Ray.

The Pegorino's soon came up with a plan to get the diamonds off Tony and Luis. They used their small time associates; the McReary's, and Niko to [[I'll Take Her|kidknap Tony's friend Gracie Ancelotti and]] hold her for ransom to coax Tony into giving up the diamonds for Gracie herself. After the Ancelotti's [[She's a Keeper|failed to get Gracie back by force]], and with Luis and Tony faced with death threats from Gracie's father, they gave in and arrived to exchange the diamonds. Niko and his friend Packie McReary[[Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend| met with Luis and Tony on Charge Island]]. The deal would have gone to plan if not for the interuption of Bulgarin, who seeked to reclaim his diamonds and kill Niko, a former employee.

Bulgarin ordered his men to attack the exchange and kill everyone.[[Ladies Half Price| Luis, Tony and Gracie quickly fled the scene]], but Niko and Packie cut down many of Bulgarin's men and chased the one holding the diamonds. When Niko and Packie cornered the last guy, he intentionally dropped them into a waste truck to ensure that nobody could have them, reasoning that Bulgarin would have later killed him if he was to give them up. Ultimately, Niko and Packie both left empty-handed.

A short while later, Luis was walking through Meadows Park to meet with Tony, shortly after[[Departure Time| killing Bulgarin aboard his private jet]]. He accidentally bumped into Jerry Kapowitz, who fell to the ground knocking over a trash bin. After apologizing, Luis continued on, but Jerry noticed that among the spilt trash, lied the small pouch of diamonds. He examined them before running off with excitement.

Over 100 people contested Jerry and claimed ownership of the diamonds, but Mayor [[Julio Ochoa]] finally allowed Jerry to keep them. He later bought a mansion in [[Alderney]], contrary to reports that he planned to move to [[Vice City]] and open a gun and liqour store.
