The Time’s Come
Ending B in which Franklin sides with Weston and kills Michael at a foundry site under the pretense of a meeting.
Overview
The Time's Come is Ending B, selected when the player chooses to kill Michael on the final phone call. Franklin lures Michael to an industrial foundry where Weston and federal interests want Michael eliminated. The fight ends with Michael's death and Trevor surviving in the epilogue. The ending reflects Franklin choosing money and survival over loyalty to Michael. This mission is one of three mutually exclusive endings triggered by the phone call after The Big Score. The choice cannot be reversed without reloading a save from before the call or replaying the story. Post-game free roam continues with the surviving protagonist roster determined by the ending. Strangers and Freaks progress and property ownership carry over, but some character-specific activities become unavailable depending on who survives.
