Luis Lopez is a man who solves problems, and when you are the nightlife legend, [[Anthony "Gay Tony" Prince]]'s right-hand man and bodyguard, there are a lot of problems to solve. A playground for vapid celebrities and tragic socialites, [[Algonquin]]'s nightlife scene is all about glitz and glamour, and owning the two hottest clubs in town ([[Hercules]] and [[Masionette 9]]) makes Tony the undisputed party king of [[Liberty City]]. He appears to have it all - wealth, power, respect - but, in debt to mobsters, loan sharks and the tax man, facing up to a changing world and the terrible economy, and under threat from pretenders to his crown, Tony begins to spiral more and more into a midlife crisis from hell. Join Luis as he fights to save Tony's empire from the brink of collapse and to make his own mark in a world defined by decadence and excess, all while keeping his mother ([[Adriana Lopez)]] quiet and stopping his friends([[Armando Torres]]and [[Henrique Bardas]]) from calling him a sell out. The party is almost over. It is up to Luis to keep it going.

Meanwhile, Tony is headed in a downward spiral due to substance abuse, supplied by his boyfriend [[Evan Moss]]. Luis, Tony and Evan [[Frosting on the Cake|head to the docks to steal two million dollars worth of diamonds]] from a [[The Cook|cook]] coming in on a tanker called the "[[Platypus]]". During the exchange, members of the The Lost (led by Johnny Klebitz) [[Diamonds in the Rough|attack and kill Evan and acquire the diamonds]]. Tony promises Luis that he will quit the substance abuse and introduces Luis to [[Mori Kibbutz]], and his younger brother [[Brucie Kibbutz|Brucie]]. Mori is highly egotistical and constantly bullies and belittles Brucie, a source of irritation to Luis who repeatedly stands up for the younger brother. Luis eventually manages to effectively cancel Tony's debt to Mori. After Brucie finally retaliates and punches Mori, he later shows up at Maisonette 9 to thank Luis. Brucie leans in towards Luis after a series of compliments, strongly implying an attempt to hit on him. Luis strongly declines, and Brucie awkwardly attempts to convince Luis that he was just testing him to see if he was gay.

Tony and Luis meet [[Ray Bulgarin]] and his associate [[Timur]] at Maisonette 9, who offer Luis some work in exchange for financial help. Luis helps Bulgarin [[Going Deep|eliminate some corrupt federal agents]] and acquire the [[Liberty City Rampage]] hockey team. Gracie Ancelotti gets Tony back on the drugs and is later [[...I'll Take Her|kidnapped]] by unknown assailants. The Ancelottis establish that Gracie has been kidnapped because of the [[Diamonds|diamonds]] and are pointing the blame at Tony and Luis. Tony learns that the diamonds are [[Not So Fast|being exchanged at the Libertonian]], and sends Luis to retrieve them. Luis ambushes the exchange (involving Niko Bellic and Johnny Klebitz) and escapes in the Buzzard, which has since been gold plated.
