One of the turning points in Grand Theft Auto IV's storyline is the betrayal of Michelle, Niko's first girlfriend in Liberty City, who turns out to be an undercover cop.

Michelle busts Niko for a drug deal, prompting him to start working with the ULC agency. However, just because the reveal was surprising to everyone's favorite Serbian hitman, it doesn't mean it has to be to you.

There are several moments in the game where Michelle's false identity is blatantly apparent, provided you pay attention and know what to expect.

For example, when you first enter her apartment, Niko observes how all of her stuff is brand new, with tags still attached to the furniture, indicating they must have been bought specifically for her mission.

On top of that, Michelle loves to ask Niko a lot of questions, most of which aim to get him to talk about criminal activity. She even urges him to talk louder when she invites him for "coffee," making it clear her place is wired and ready to squeeze a confession out of her supposed "boyfriend."
