Helena Wankstein is a minor character in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. She can become one of Carl's potential girlfriends.
She is voiced by Bijou Phillips.
History[]
Background[]
Helena lives on a farm in Flint Range, Flint County, and meets Carl Johnson beside the Ammu-Nation store in Blueberry, Red County shooting some targets on a deck (after the mission The Green Sabre is completed). Well-groomed, she is a lawyer by trade and is passionate about guns.
Dates[]
As a matter of fact, since she only likes men with really low muscle, Carl may have to lose muscle that he might have gained if he wants to date her, as she seems to tolerate only up to 15-20% of muscle. Losing muscle can only be achieved by the logical way of not feeding Carl for 48 to 72 in-game hours (48 to 72 minutes in real time) until he gets hungry, loses all his fat and then his muscle, or starving him. Physical activities during the hunger state will make this process faster, especially swimming and diving. The player can also bypass all of the requirements needed to be able to date her by collecting all oysters.
Food Date[]
Helena prefers to go to restaurants, the nearest one being the World of Coq restaurant in Rodeo, Los Santos. It is the only one in Los Santos.

Club Date[]
Carl can take Helena to either the club in Idlewood, Los Santos (Alhambra) or Queens, San Fierro (Gaydar Station), but the Alhambra remains a better destination to go for dancing with her since it is closer from her place, despite both clubs being far away from Helena's house. To impress Helena with dancing, the player must score at least 4,000 points.
Driving Date[]
Helena prefers Carl to drive fairly slowly in rural areas (such as around her farm) or nice parts of town, such as the nearby beaches around the west part of Los Santos. Driving around her fields will suffice for this type of date.
Coffee[]
Helena will ask Carl in for coffee when their relationship gets to 70%.
Rewards[]
The rewards for dating Helena include access to her tool shed, which contains a chainsaw, a flamethrower (20 fuel ammo), 8 molotovs and a pistol (100 rounds).
At 50%, Helena gives Carl the keys to her Bandito, but even without having the keys, CJ can still steal it, since it has no doors, making her the only girlfriend to have, or own a car that is easily accessible to the player to begin with as opposed to being inaccessible until the required percentage in the relationship is gained.
At 100%, Helena gives Carl a gift, and he gets the Rural Clothes, which are located in the special menu in the wardrobe. In her farm, there is also a Sadler that is unlocked for CJ at any time, thus making her the only girlfriend to have another vehicle that is always parked in front of her home regardless of whether she is at home or not.

Trivia[]
- Helena's name was originally Kylie Goodpoke during early development.[2]
- Helena's Bandito is coded to have a unique license plate "FULLAUTO", although this feature is unused due to the vehicle itself lacking a license plate.[3]
- If Carl stands in front of Helena when she is at the shooting range, she will keep shooting Carl as if he is not there.
- Helena's surname is a wordplay on the phrase wank stain.
- She is the only girlfriend in the game that requires more than two statistic requirements; low muscle, low fat, and high sex appeal. The other girlfriends only require a maximum of two.
- Helena is the only free roam girlfriend in the game that requires completing a story mission to unlock her to be able to spawn on the map for dating.
