Sweet seems to only express the concern that he is gonna remain insude for life, because he doesn't think CJ can free him, since obviously, Sweet doesn't realize all the efforts CJ has been putting all this while. It's not a cutscene, but a phone call, and it's likely that sometimes such little details might skip out of my mind, which is why I asked you. I never claimed myself absolute perfectionist knowing everything about the game 100%. if you're so familiar with the game you should remember all the phone calls, especially from Sweet lol.HO HO HO. It all just seems like one big Deus Ex Machina. I mean you'd think C.R.A.S.H would have ordered CJ to go back to resurge the gang violence but no, Tenpenny assfoots it out of there, Carl kills Polaski and no-one remembers C.R.A.S.H until Tenpennies trial.
My point is nothing really drives Carl to get back to Los Santos.
Because of this CJ meets Mike and only then does CJ work toward getting Sweet out of prison and ends up being Torenos lapdog until the Las Venturas missions where this is seemingly forgotten and CJ is trying to build up Woozies casino and fight the mob THEN it's only because Madd Dogg wants to go home that the plot moves in the direction of taking back LS. He mostly spends his time pissing around building a business empire across SA.ĬJ didn't really know what he was doing until he gets the pink slip for the garage in SF then Kendl suggests business investments meanwhile it's Cesar and Woozie who are actively trying to bring down the drug trade and CJ is just doing what he's told because of street loyalty and all that wholesome stuff. Nothing about the way CJ conducts himself in between Green Sabre up until Home in the Hills suggests he's in any sort of rush to get back to LS, get revenge and save his brother. Sure he wants to get back at Smoke and all that but he certainly takes his time doing it. After replaying the game and following the story more closely the plot seems more connected due to things that just kind of happen to CJ.
