If I'd known I could call my agent to call their agent and stage it all, my life would have been so much easier.

Paparazzo - Reality Check is a Strangers and Freaks mission in Grand Theft Auto V given by Beverly Felton to protagonist Franklin Clinton.
Description[]
After taking pictures of Poppy Mitchell and Princess Georgina, Franklin meets Beverly in front of The Generic Hotel in West Vinewood to give him the photos and collect his money. However, Beverly is already filming his reality show and is no longer interested in the photos. Franklin gets angry, but Beverly simply tries to shoo Franklin away so Beverly can continue making his show.
After the cutscene ends, the player has the choice to kill Beverly or spare him. The mission ends once Franklin kills Beverly or Franklin leaves the scene.
Mission Objectives[]
- Kill or spare Beverly
Gold Medal Objectives[]
- Explosive Action! - Kill Beverly and his crew with one shot
- Franklin should use any kind of explosive to get all of them at the same time. Be careful, as some explosives will give the targets enough time to run away from them, avoiding the blast radius. A rocket launcher, homing launcher, and sticky bomb will perform the task flawlessly.
Possible Deaths[]
- Beverly Felton - Can be killed by Franklin Clinton for betraying him by not giving the money he owed him.
- Beverly Felton's crew - Can be killed by Franklin Clinton in addition.
Video Walkthrough[]
Trivia[]
- The fact that the objective to get the gold medal in this mission requires the player to kill Beverly and his crew could suggest that they are canonically supposed to die in this mission.
- If the player kills Beverly before he gets in his car, they can collect $251 from his body.
- The player can steal Beverly's car without killing him, resulting in Franklin saying "I'm taking this as a fucking payment!" and Beverly giving chase. Franklin will receive a two-star wanted level upon doing this. However, stealing the car after killing Beverly and the crew will not result in a wanted level.
- If Franklin decides to kill Beverly while on foot, he will say, "One way or another, motherfucker, I'm getting paid!".
