** After "The Construction Assassination", Lester tells Franklin that all Assassination missions are off the table until the heat with Enzo Bonelli's death starts dying down, implying that there was going to be more missions later with one of the teasers for the scrapped story mode DLC hinting at being able to do more when it released. However, this ended up being the last Assassination mission that Franklin can do in the game



** Molly Schulz, Devin Weston's secretary and lawyer [[spoiler: ends up getting shredded to gory pieces in a plane turbine after being chased by Michael in "Legal Trouble" when she takes the physical copy of Meltdown with her so Devin can go through with his scam. Right after the mission, it's revealed that Solomon Richards already made digital copies of the film in case this happened, rendering Michael chasing Molly AllForNothing while pissing off Devin in the process.]]

** Dr. Isaiah Friedlander, Michael's therapist, is shown throughout the multiple optional therapy sessions for Michael to mainly do his job [[OnlyInItForTheMoney for the money he gets from his sessions and increases the price after every session]]. During the final therapy session which can be done between "The Bureau Raid" and either "Something Sensible" or "The Third Way", it's revealed that Friedlander got a TV show as well as a host for Radio after releasing a book about his sessions with Michael, causing him to become enraged that he did so without telling him. After realizing that if Friedlander goes through with his show his secrets would be leaked to the public, Michael can either chase down and kill his therapist, or let him go with an email being sent to him as a result. Even if you spare him, Weazel News will still report him as dead. [[spoiler: Despite this, [[CuttingOffTheBranches the Los Santos Drug Wars update for Online confirms that he is still canonical alive and has him act as the main villain of the scenario.]]

*** Once Trevor delivers four victims to the cult, the cult betrays him and attempt to make him another victim of theirs, leading to the Altruist shootout random event where Trevor proceeds to kill the entire camp. Considering they were cannibals from the baby boomer generation that thought drinking blood would restore their youth, they had it coming in the end.

** Franklin and Lamar's original boss Simeon Yetarian runs an HonestJohnsDealership where he runs a credit fraud selling people cars and is heavily implied to have ties to the Armenian Mafia, ends up firing both of them after two failed missions and gets beaten up by Michael for pulling his scam on his son Jimmy. A special random event later spawns in between "Friend Request" and "The Jewel Store Job" and can't be done after the later mission has either Franklin or Michael return to the car dealership and Simeon has two armed guards attempt to kill them. If you are fast enough, you can also kill Simeon [[CuttingOffTheBranches though the Arena Wars update in Online confirms that he's still canonically alive]].

** Many of the Strangers and Freaks characters are shown to be unlikable and sometimes betray the protagonists with many of them giving you the option to kill them as most of their final missions have a gold medal requirement to do so.

** Owning properties in general is far less lucrative here than it's been in past games, often requiring waiting at least ''100 in-game weeks'' and/or completing dozens of tedious side missions to so much as break even. A couple provide a few nice perks, like free cab rides and car mods, but most of those properties can only be bought by Franklin, leaving Michael and Trevor with not a whole lot of reason to invest in real estate. This is what puts properties like the movie theaters and the golf course firmly into BraggingRightsReward territory, although the two less expensive cinemas are easier to turn a profit on relatively quickly. That said, there are three properties worth owning: the boatyard can earn you a hefty profit in the hundreds of thousands pretty quickly, though once you've completed its associated sidequest, it stops earning you money period; and Trevor gets [[spoiler:the strip club]] for free as part of the story, with it netting you a respectable $5,000 a week, and Franklin has the Smoke on the Water dispensary, which is relatively inexpensive at $204,000, earns $9,300 weekly and turns a profit after only 22 weeks. Trevor can also buy an airstrip which unlocks a series of fun weapons trafficking missions that can be replayed indefinitely, though the unique dialogue from these missions is only heard in the first five of each. There are also hangars and helipads and boat docks available that allow for parking of specialty vehicles. On top of all this, a total of five properties must be purchased in order to achieve the coveted 100% completion. However, Trevor owning [[spoiler:The Strip Club]] doesn't count towards this.

** Averted with the mission where you torture Mr. K. As long as you shoot the right guy, you can skip all but the first bit of ColdBloodedTorture. However, the game will act like you still tortured him longer than that and you need to use every method of torture possible if you want the good medal for the mission.
