** After this mission switching back to Michael after a few days usually has him interacting more positively with his family in general. Such as playing a friendly and clean game of tennis with Amanda, watching TV with his kids and even apologizing if you switch back to see Tracey yelling at him for [[NoodleIncident something stupid he apparently did]].
