Notable Events[]
| In Those Five Years... |
|---|
|
Winter and Zeek Kacem, formerly involved in crime in Los Santos, surprised friends by getting married and eagerly awaiting their baby. After leaving their criminal past behind, they settled in the Philippines, where Winter gave birth to their daughter, Fiona. Wanting to shield Fiona from her criminal history, Winter decided to stay in the Philippines. Over the next five years, Winter achieved personal and professional success, working as a marketing consultant and repairing her relationship with her sister Emmy Montez. However, an email about Los Santos being rebuilt prompts Winter and Zeek to briefly leave the Philippines, renew citizenship, and catch up with old friends. Winter, having issues with friends Issa Belle and Cassie Miller, keeps Fiona's existence a secret. The plan is to return to Manila after two weeks, but the question remains whether unforeseen events will alter Winter's peaceful life in Manila and extend her stay in Los Santos. |

After successfully obtaining her citizenship from the government in Los Santos, Winter decided to return to the Philippines. She checked on Fiona but couldn't find her husband, Zeek Kacem. Staying in her hometown to care for her daughter for less than 72 hours, Winter made the tough choice to pack her bags and fly back to Los Santos to revive her marketing company. She recognized the greater financial opportunities abroad compared to the Philippines, especially for overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) with families back home. Despite the difficulty of leaving her family, Winter embarked on the journey with the hope of bringing Fiona when the time was right. Upon her return to Los Santos, Winter reconnected with her former gang members and encountered new acquaintances who rekindled her criminal instincts. She missed the excitement and adrenaline rush. Realizing that the city was in a state of reset, she saw an opportunity to rebuild the Sirens. They could progress alongside others in the city starting anew. Stepping out of the airport in Los Santos with nothing but hope and dreams, Winter was determined to fulfill her aspirations. |
| Back To Business |
|---|
|
Winter has landed in Los Santos, ready to break out of her comfort zone and establish a reputation for herself. Finding herself alone, with her father, Benji Ramos engrossed in his own pursuits and her siblings seemingly absent, Winter resolved to take initiative and build connections. Taking her uncle Reggie Might's advice to heart, she has already attracted attention, particularly in assisting others with writing business proposals. Her first client in five years, Santiago Madrid, along with others such as Ash Lott, Chico Guzman, Jack Pot, have entrusted her with their proposals, marking a promising start to her endeavors. Eager to broaden her horizons, Winter is now exploring opportunities for business and mentorship. She has set her sights on seeking guidance from influential figures like Cassie Cupcake and Marlo Stanfield. The path ahead seems bright as she navigates her way through the dynamic landscape of Los Santos. |
| The Company & Bahama Mamas West |

For weeks, Winter had been on a quest to make a lasting impact in the city. Uninterested in grinding for short-term gains like a house or a car, she envisioned a long-term goal—to assist entrepreneurs and startup companies through her marketing expertise. Inspired by women in business like Eve DiCenzo-Summers, she aspired to reach similar heights. During this pursuit, Winter met Eleanor Chadwick, who expressed a desire to own the Vanilla Unicorn. Collaborating on Gruppe 6 deliveries, they discussed their aspirations to own businesses, and Winter set her sights on Bahama Mamas, a place she had managed before. Seeking a trusted ally, she enlisted Jamie McQueen as her C.F.O., drawing on their five-year-old professional camaraderie. Upon learning about interns leaving The Company, including Ginger Ale, Winter contacted her father, Benji, for clarification. He revealed the departures were due to inadequate job performance, prompting Winter to inquire about available positions. Benji confirmed an opening, officially making Winter an intern without specifying the details. The next day, armed with her resume and portfolio, Winter contacted Mickey Sinclaire, recommended by her father. An interview with Ari O. was arranged, though it turned out to be a session where Ari sought fashion advice from Winter. Later, Winter was recruited for the Rizz Rivals sales contest, aligned with Valentine's Day. Inspired, Winter proposed hosting a Valentine's Day event, incorporating the Rizz Rivals announcement. Approaching Beverly Brekker with the idea, he promptly approved and suggested a meeting with Mickey. During the meeting, Mickey, Brekkers, Winter, and Jamie discussed the event, with Mickey expressing immediate enthusiasm. He informed Winter that her role within The Company needed clarification to assign her to an appropriate department. Assured by Mickey that she was likely to be hired, Winter was tasked with ensuring the success of the upcoming event. |
| The Heated Bahama Mamas Meeting |
|---|
|
One day, Winter woke up determined to promote her Valentine's Day event at Bahama Mamas. As she posted ads, a call from Daphne Malone interrupted her routine, requesting a meeting. Agreeing to meet at Bahama Mamas, Winter and Jamie McQueen found themselves seated with Daphne and Aries King, launching into a discussion about a potential partnership. Daphne revealed her ambition to acquire Bahama Mamas, expressing interest in forming a partnership with Winter. Skeptical and cautious, Winter requested some time to weigh the decision, aware that partnering with someone unknown could be a risky venture. In Bahama Mamas, Winter, Jamie, and Aries gathered to strategize and draft a script for Winter to convey her decision to Daphne. Winter was steadfast in her choice not to partner with Daphne. Despite having worked under the same Bahama Mamas management five years ago, Winter had reservations about Daphne's work ethic and operational style. She reflected on past experiences where she collaborated with friends and others who failed to contribute initiative and merely rode on her efforts. The meeting reconvened with Daphne, accompanied by two friends, Ricardo Valdez and Achez Perez. Winter expressed gratitude for the offer but declined the partnership, citing her uncertainty about Daphne's working methods. Daphne mentioned their past collaboration five years ago, but Winter dismissed it, asserting that Daphne was mostly absent, leaving her to shoulder managerial responsibilities. Tensions escalated as Daphne claimed to have worked with the previous owners months before the borders closed. Winter and Jamie countered, asserting their presence and involvement at Bahama Mamas during that time. Daphne insisted she was the C.E.O., but Winter refuted this, clarifying that Sean Deane, the previous owner, held that position, and even if Daphne were the C.E.O., she lacked the initiative and effort deserving of the role. The meeting became increasingly heated, marked by exchanges and contradictions. Ultimately, Daphne and her company left Bahama Mamas, bidding Winter a curt "good luck" as they departed. |
| The End of Wapple |

Zeek and Winter's return to the Philippines started as a family visit, but after some soul-searching talks, they decided to put an end to their five-year marriage. The growing distance between them became undeniable, and they both admitted that the spark just wasn't there anymore. Recognizing their diverging ambitions, they mutually agreed that it was time to move forward separately. Despite the romantic parting, they pledged to remain friends, understanding that co-parenting Fiona demanded ongoing support and collaboration. Winter, eager to shift her focus, flew directly to Los Santos after her brief visit to the Philippines, determined to distract herself from the heartbreak. Back in the city, Winter tried hard to resume her daily routine, wrestling with the shock of her recent breakup. Conversations with her therapist, Kevin Ram, brought clarity about the crumbling relationship. Gruppe 6 deliveries and a card reading from Windsong provided accurate insights, urging her to embrace independence. Coincidentally, she spotted Zeek in both places, tempted to say hello but ultimately holding back. Determined to move on, Winter immersed herself in work, meeting with Brekkers to discuss the recent Valentine's Day event. Before the meeting, a call from her father, Benji Ramos, revealed that Winter had been cheating on Zeek, courtesy of Future. A concerned call from Zeek followed, where Winter clarified the truth, shedding tears quietly as her ex-husband consoled her. During the meeting, Benji called Winter, expressing his disapproval and informing her that she couldn't return to The Company unless she reconciled with Zeek. In response, Brekker, learning of this unjust demand, promptly hired Winter as a valuable asset for the company. |
| Successful Bahama Mamas Event & Becoming an Asset to The Company |

Winter's management, S&M Management, orchestrated a remarkable event. Initial discussions with Mickey Sinclaire and Beverly Brekker indicated that only the elite would attend, prompting an increase in the entry fee to $800 per person, covering food and drinks. The event, with the expected 29 guests, not only proved successful but also boosted sales for The Company, elevating the Rizz Rivals contest leaderboard. Notably, board members Benji Ramos and Raymond Romanov from The Company attended. A few days later, Winter and Jamie McQueen met with Beverly Brekker to review the event's financials. The spreadsheet revealed significant success. During the meeting, Jamie suggested that S&M Management should claim a larger percentage or even the entire profits, given the absence of the Rizz Rivals leaderboard announcement. Brekkers agreed, granting S&M Management the entire profit share. In a separate conversation, Winter texted Brekkers, expressing her desire to give the profits to him instead. In a private conversation, Winter and Brekkers discussed her ranking as the third-highest salesperson in the Rizz Rivals, with a prize of $5,000. Both agreed that The Company should retain her sales prize as a way of compensating for their share of the event profits. Despite Brekkers' appreciation for Winter's gesture, a call from her father, Benji Ramos, informed her that she couldn't remain part of The Company unless she reconciled with her ex-husband, Zeek Kacem. After sharing this news with Brekkers, he asserted his role in H.R. and immediately hired Winter as an asset. Additionally, Brekkers vowed to support Winter's fast track into a similar position within The Company. Financials for Valentine's Day Prom Event |
| Leaving the Business Division & Joining Ex-SS Heist Crew |

After escaping Cletus Cornwood and Flop Dugong while in the middle of delivering stolen goods, Winter hid herself in the bushes, anticipating Reggie Might and Jayden Dennis arrival to transport her back to the city. Once reunited, they visited a clothing store for Winter to change before going on a drive to Great Ocean Highway, with the scenic seaside view. During their conversation, Reggie, who initiated the Seaside Evaluation, raised questions about the sea, triggering memories of Winter's past evaluation. In the course of their meeting, Winter received an invitation to join the Ex-SS Heist Crew, a group dedicated to collaborative criminal activities aimed at skill development. Jayden, a seasonal hacker, was one of the few to teach how to hack. Although Winter eagerly accepted the offer, she faced the challenge of informing The Company and her other affiliations about her decision, leaving her with lingering uncertainties. As Winter and Jayden spent more time together, they discussed Reggie's offer, and Winter confidently revealed that the decision wasn't difficult for her. However, her commitment to The Company's business division posed a dilemma. She was enjoying her time being exposed to different projects, and she did not want to be fired. To resolve this, she contacted Brekkers, expressing her love for business but her desire to seize a rare opportunity in the security department. Beverly Brekker approved her transition but clarified her continued involvement in business without being directly involved in the books. A few days later, Winter and Reggie reconvened at the pier during a crew rooftop run. She expressed her eagerness to join the heist crew, receiving enthusiastic approval from Reggie. Invited to participate in the Laundromat Heist the next day, Winter faced the prospect of tarnishing her clean record and potentially becoming a felon if caught. Shortly after, Benji Ramos extended an invitation for Winter to be in the All Women Laundromat Heist, organized by The Company. This heist included participants such as Fiona Stewart, Ray Mond, January Fooze, and Freya Pepperwood, marking a significant turning point in Winter's criminal endeavors, the beginning of her getaway driving arc, and her first heist in Los Santos after five years. |
| Winter Forgets the Last Three Months |
|---|
|
Winter was invited by her friend Atlas Elwood to go on a plane ride because Clayton, a fake pilot who claimed he had a business operating airplanes, wanted to offer free rides to people. They went on the ride, but unfortunately, while everyone else was ejected from the airplane, Winter was left inside. It burst into flames as soon as it hit the rocks on top of a mountain. It was said that the fake pilot did it intentionally. When EMS arrived to help the injured people, Winter was treated but remained unconscious and unresponsive. She was brought to the hospital along with ten other injured people and was treated by Dr. Duke Ramsey. He observed brain injuries and bleeding from her head, which required surgery. She was admitted to the ICU, where she stayed for two days. Dr. Monte Ramos came to check on her, cleaned her head, and notified her emergency contacts that she had awoken from her coma. She was greeted by Jamie McQueen, Benji Ramos, Raymond Romanov, and Duece Smalls. When she asked about her husband, Benji told her that she was no longer with him and that she had broken up with him. She was unable to process the news and tried to recollect her memories. It turned out she had forgotten the last three months since returning to the city. Over the next few days, she took the time to reach out to her friends for help, became more involved in The Company despite having thoughts of leaving before, and started repositioning The Sirens on the right path as their leader. |
