Everything on screen is real (nothing invented)
- Character cutouts - official Rockstar artwork from the GTA Wiki (Michael, Franklin, Trevor, plus Brad, Lester, Madrazo, Haines, Devin, Norton), backgrounds cut out for the whiteboard look. Jason & Lucia are the official GTA 6 portraits.
- No fabricated gameplay - in-game "shots" (the bank, the mansion, the grave, the Big Score) are shown as labeled diagram frames with emoji iconography, never faked screenshots.
- The Third Way (Ending C) is canon - the accepted read: GTA Online treats all three as alive, in the same HD Universe GTA 6 is set in.
The spine
- 2004 Ludendorff heist -> the sniper -> Michael's secret FIB deal -> Brad in the grave marked "Michael"
- 9 years on: miserable Michael, Franklin's collision, the debt to Madrazo, back to crime with Lester
- Trevor returns, digs up the grave; Haines + Devin Weston pull the strings; the heists build to the Big Score
- Three endings -> The Third Way (canon, all three live) -> why it matters: same world, same trust question as Jason & Lucia
