Forum:GTA V Something Sensible quotes

Im kinda new to this wikia so i don't know if this is the right place to ask but what did michael mean at the end when he told franklin "fairy tales spun by people afraid to look life in the eye" after killing trevor in the mission something sensible?


 * Spoilers below, as this is dealing with one of three available endings to the player. The full quote might also help: "Survival is winning, Franklin - everything else is bullsh*t ...fairytales, spun by people afraid to look life in the eye. Whatever it takes, kid - survive!"  ...the easiest explanation is just a culmination of the 'life lessons' Michael has tried to impart to Franklin. The story of GTAV started with Michael's selfish betrayal of his crew, and ended (in either A or B) with Franklin's selfish betrayal of a protagonist - in many ways, the story comes full circle. In this particular case, Michael has already learned to justify his actions, and merely lets Franklin in on the 'secret'. Alternatively, it's a subtle jab at the player by the developers; here we are, devoting countless hours of our lives to essentially a 'fairytale', all to avoid 'looking life in the eye' and dealing with whatever else we should be doing ...but that's a particularly cynical viewpoint, mind you. Dsurian (talk) 21:41, February 25, 2018 (UTC)


 * I think it is a direct reference to Trevor's state of mind - his delusional "successful lifestyle" when he was really still doing what he had been doing since Michael first met him, and hadn't "grown up" like Mike. Smurfy: illuminate - communicate - spectate 22:19, February 25, 2018 (UTC)
