The Introduction

This page needs to be cleaned up to meet the standards of Grand Theft Wiki. |
The Introduction is a 20 minute documentary set in 1991 detailing the events leading up to Carl Johnson's return to San Andreas. It is essentially a large cutscene for the start of GTA San Andreas. It explains how Brian and CJ's mother dies, and shows that CJ is a big criminal in Liberty City.
The Introduction is available with the American PS2 Special Edition of GTA San Andreas, or the official soundtrack double CD. It has been speculated that The Introduction replaces the need for a GTA San Andreas Stories prequel, like GTA Liberty City Stories and GTA Vice City Stories explaining the events leading up to GTA III and GTA Vice City respectively.
Partial Transcription
- This is not the full script but it tells you at least one story in San Andreas.
CJ walking down an alley in the red light district. A man walks by him going the other direction. CJ quickly turns around, pulls out a pistol and shoves the man against the wall
CJ: Give me your fucking money! Man: All right, man. All right, man.
Gives CJ his wallet
Man: Here, man. Here, man, take it.
CJ takes the wallet
CJ: Yeah. Man: Come on, man, just don't shoot me.
CJ hits the man in the head with the pistol, walks away
CJ: Punk ass motherfucker!
Scene cuts to the desert of San Andreas. Two men are digging
Man 1: Hey, how's your woman? Man 2: She's a ball buster. Ever since we moved to Venturas, all she wants to do... Spend, spend, spend. For Christ sakes, I got better luck on the tables. Man 1: Yeah, I hear you. Hey, give me a hand with this guy, will you? Man 2: Yeah.
The digging stops, Man 1 walks over to a body on the ground
Man 2: I mean, why'd we whack Mickey anyhow? He was a standup guy. Man 1: I dunno, something about money. Man 2: Oh man.
Getting out of the hole
Man 2: What, he was on the take? Man 1: Nah, he was kosher. A little too kosher.
They pick up the body
Man 1: That's why he had to go. Man 2: Oh, I get it. Man 1: Yeah, he was declaring too much money, so we gotta get a new guy in. You know, I hear the Leones are lending the bosses some money. Man 2: The Leones?
They put down the body on the ground
Man 1: Yeah. Man 2: Get the fuck outta here. We hate the Leones. Man 1: I know. That's what I said to Johnny, but he said they needed the money.
They kick the body into the hole
Man 2: Buona notte,dirtball. Man 1: So, Mickey gets capped, so we get a new guy in, who everybody bullies. Then, when he misbehaves... Man 2: We dig another hole.
Goes to get the shovel
Man 1: Exactly. Hey, you hear about Bobby back east? Man 2: No, what? Man 1: He's gone queer. Can you believe that shit? Man 2: Oh Mother of Christ Almighty, I've seen everything! Man 1: Minchia!
Man 2 starts to cover up the body with dirt
