The most underrated friendship tbh. Lester and Franklin are super chill with each other. Would’ve been nice if Franklin was the only one with the option to hang with Lester
I would’ve liked that too, it would be so cool just seeing them hang out, plus hear some backstory or interest from Lester as he is telling Franklin. Well I’m still glad that they are still good friends after all these years, even to the point where Franklin becomes a CEO 8 years later, they still communicate and keep in touch. Plus I like during the Big Score Heist (Obvious) when they embrace each other it’s very engaging and fun to watch.✨
I like how Lester is always immediately ready to help whenever you call him, as if he is running a 24/7 support hotline. "Hello, this is Lester's support hotline for troubled gangsters, you're talking to Lester, how may I help you today?"
@@Mentelgen-1337 our online characters probably know of Lester from Lamar, but I don't guarantee anything. I think Lester notices our hustle and helps out, considering we unlock his remove wanted level at lvl 21, meaning we don't "know" him until a little bit of hustling around, where he lends us favours.
@Mentelgen-1337 did they remove the old cutscene where your online character meets Lester? Back in the day, when you reach level 12 or 21 or something he'd call you anonymously and request to meet you because you're a new criminal making noise, so he (similar to Martin and trevor) takes the protagonist under his wing, you go visit him at his house and meet him formally.
What about Michael? Without Michael trusting Franklin to do the jewelry job Lester would've never helped Franklin, also throughout the story we can see that Michael genuinely cared about Franklin
@@eduparada970 I watched an essay on the gta 5 story, how Michael wasn't really inoccent. And one in game quote where Franklin complains how it feels like got no where (in the mission where Michael and Trevor dress up as cops. Franklin said he's just stealing cars for some rich guy and doesn't even get paid in the end. ) Buuutt sadly I don't remember the detail of why Michael is a big bad. So eh, check out "does gta 5 have a good story?", pretty good vid
@pissedoffbucketguy9115 Franklin was talking about Devin Weston since he ordered Franklin to rob cars for him but he never pais Franklin anything lol Franklin never stole cars for Michael, Franklin was stealing banks WITH Michael and he was getting paid very very well lol just in his first roberry alone he made more that his entire lifetime (said by franklin himself)
@@eduparada970 I mean, the only thing Michael did was get Franklin connected with Lester. And Lester helped him out more than Michael. With the hit man missions n all. While Michael dragged Franklin's to problems he never had any attachment to. Like Devin weston and the hole spaghetti with the FIB n so on. Heists yeah sure, but still And yeah by rich guy I meant Devin, didn't mean Michael.
@@pissedoffbucketguy9115 Lester doubted Franklin at first, it was Michael's trust in Franklin that got him working with Lester later... Lester even asked Michael if he was sure about working with an amateur that never has done a job like the jewelry store and Michael with no doubts said that he was sure Franklin was good, he even told Lester "See I told you he was good" after completing the heist... Btw He also told Franklin to get away from him once Trevor came back tk his life and Dave told Michael what was happening with all the fbi shit, it was franklim himself that choose to stay with Michael because "I did more money with you in 1 day that I've done for years hustling" and that he owed Michael the favor...
You know, some people take their friends to trips for tax purposes. Then there's Lester, putting people in invested mansions for tax purposes. Get yourself a bud like Lester.
Well it's also an incentive for Franklin to work with Lester in the future. He saw how effective Franklin was as his assassin, so he rewarded him as a further investment for future work. That's how I looked at it. Everything Lester does has layers to it. When he assassinates, he makes sure to get stock so he comes out on top when it happens. And he also makes sure he's in a somewhat moral right for things like this, which he is. He instills this into Franklin who takes these lessons with him into the Agency. Lester taught Franklin into a good protege. Franklin is directly continuing that work. Micheal may have talked of Franklin as "the son he never had" but Lester went one step further and really succeeded.
tbf Franklin is probably the only one that wouldnt go psycho and settle down when the dust settled Trevor is Trevor and Michael is not only a traitor but also escalates the game's story just because he was bored and sad lmao Franklin rarely starts shit in the game, compared to Mike and Trevor, and moreso dragged along by association. Being fair, he also isn't against being part of bull like with Lamar or Michael but he doesn't actively look for shit to start by himself. If there's only one of the three you could keep alive, Franklin is your best bet.
@@somecrappyeditsI agree that Franklin is the least psycho, but Michael by the end of the story has a really good chance at settling down. He’s following his dream of being a movie producer, and he started patching things up with his wife and kids. Only reason why he got back in the life was because the tennis coach hid in a kingpin’s dream house, not out of boredom
@@KingDizzo86 Even the tennis coach ordeal was purely his own rage and love for violence. It was completely unnecessary and that one action ends up exposing his secret to everyone, kickstarting the whole events of the game. Plus he clearly enjoys doing crime and heavily admits missing those days so, even if he didn't have a debt, its likely he would end up going back anyways. Plus the debt is settled after the first heist but, due to Mike's ego with needing to be a badass quoting shit, he blows his cover and brings Trevor back into his life Especially as his violent impulses come back like with having Franklin crash into the car lot or having a shootout with porn producers. He does become happier and more appreciative with his normal life as the game goes on, but Michael had his honeymoon phases before. If you are the one quickly needing to decide which of the three psychopaths to keep, Mike isn't the worst but he's still way more impulsive than Franklin.
@@somecrappyeditsFranklin is young and the best thing about his youth is that he’s also smart. Lester knows Franklin’s potential and how sane he is compared to the other two. He’s legit probably one of the best heist guys Lester’s ever met.
Being older, Ive started to appreciate the dialogue more and more in the story and not just the cutscenes but the on the road dialogue too, it just feels so natural
It makes sense why the two get along so well, Franklin appreciates doing a job with a plan first, rather than Lamar who just likes to go in guns blazing and figures it out as he goes along. He finds that no one can do a detailed, intricate plan like Lester, hence why they work so well together.
This is true, even in the merryweather heist doing the freighter trevor will say "almost forgot, heres the rifle with a thermal scope" and Franklin is immediately annoyed and says like "almost forgot? I thought this was well thought out plan" or something like that
I do love how Frank is super inexperienced with everything going on around him at first. And then when we meet him again in online he's the one calling in for the hits and manipulating the stock market in the favor of himself and clients.
@@KyoJo_V5I remember I was robbing an armored truck in this game and my dumbass drove right into the pumps right away, didn’t blow up but the bullets the cops shot at it certainly made it go
@@scottpeltier3977 In online, I once did a mc bar resupply mission where I grabbed the van and then proceeded to back into the tank I had forgot was there. Fastest "Mission Failed" ever for me lol.
There is something funny about that gas station. Ran a few tests, and that explosion sound is pretty much scripted to that location when you're in a certain proximity.
Thank you so much, I was shocked no one had done with before. Fuckin love these two together, they have Trevor and Lamar chemistry with the way they bounce off of each other.
17:31 if u think about it, Lesters known our gta online protagonist longer than he’s known Franklin since the 5 original heists take place before story mode
I liked their friendship in the story and was happy to hear that contractors line, even though its fake it's good to know they stayed friends after the story, relating to Lester it gave me hope of finding friends in unlikely places, but again it's fake so who knows
Michael, Lester and even Trevor dropped everything to look after Franklin to keep him fed and rich throughout the game. That’s why you can’t kill Michael or Trevor. You’re indirectly betraying Lester by doing it.
That’s definitely true. But even though if Franklin chooses to kill either Michael or Trevor, Lester would understand that Franklin did what he had to do and states that they will still keep doing business as usual. Yet, I can still imagine Lester being sad that one of his old companions died and found no other choice to deal with it. It could explain why he advised Franklin to kill both during The Third Way.✨
Michael is a father figure to Franklin while Trevor is more of a crazy uncle. These people are crazy, but they did take care of Franklin whatever he needs.
People only remember Michael and Trevor to be Franklin's mentors but actually Lester is no less mentor than both of them, not to mention he gave Franklin a luxury house

First one was before they met, when they were planning the Jewel store job.

Gta online Lester in a nutshell. To be honest I am not sure how our characters know of Lester tbh
Edit: so this might be a good theory.
@@Mentelgen-1337Well Lester does mention the characters in the story mode but he says that they are “unpredictable”

I think it was referenced that Lester got insomnia and the only times he falls asleep is when he is high on painkillers and alcohol
@Mentelgen-1337 did they remove the old cutscene where your online character meets Lester?

I think lester is just happy that one person he’s working with is actually thinking and not sulking on the wayside or throwing bikers off bridges
Or discussing economics to people he's tied up under the pier.
Lester is probably the only person who helped Franklin get to the life he dreamed of.

Boy wasn't kidding
that cut sent me
6:57 So who the fuck you don't like today? 🤣 funniest line
"hey, Franklin"
"wassup?"
best interaction they've ever had
I am jealous of the fact that Lester gave Franklin a multi-million dollar house for 'tax purposes'. 😂
He's laundering the money to prevent the IRS and G men pounding to their front door.
8:30 Franklin shouting at everyone and hit the “wus sup” to Lester 😂❤
