Forum:The Platypus

For people who haven't played too far in GTAIV, I'd stop reading. For others, you may know two of the most important things in the game: the cursed heroin and the diamonds. If I'm correct, both of these items were seen in the first scene of the game, during the opening credits. You can see a kilo of something being loaded into a black Schafter. I believe this is the heroin. During This Shit's Cursed, Jim tells Johnny that the Heroin they took was brought in on the Platypus by the Triads, so this helps my argument. Many may also remember a cook loading a diamond into some cake batter. During Diamonds in the Rough, a man who resembles this cook is seen talking to Gay Tony and Luis F.L. about the diamonds Johnny is sent to steal. Therefore, two of the most important plot elements in the story are introduced in the first scene of the game. Hell, the heroin is what eventually leads to Niko's revenge on Dimitri and later Pegorino/Roman's death and his revenge on Dimitri. So, I guess Niko was right in what he told Roman after killing Dimitri, "I guess it ends where it began."

Pretty cool plot choice. Thoughts? Comments? Am I incorrect about any of this?
