Conflict and Death
In 2008, Marlon begins to anger North Holland-based drug dealer, Trey Stewart - better known as "Playboy X" - by calling him a "phoney" and "snitch". Annoyed by Marlon's arrogance and disrespectful attitude, Playboy sends his associate Niko Bellic to silence Marlon, who at the time is with his drug crew at the basketball court in Northwood.
Not knowing what Marlon looks like, Niko is told by Playboy to take a picture of different pedestrians around the basketball court until he can confirm which one is Marlon. With this information, Marlon and his men are gunned down by Niko.
