Heavy Rain Walkthrough

Chapter 16: Nathaniel (Norman)

Norman has two possible suspects who fit his current profile. The first is a religious nutcase named Nathaniel. Check out his apartment with Lt. Blake, looking at the various religious displays in the living room, the bedroom, the kitchen, and the bathroom. Afterward, go to the back of the living room and wait for Nathaniel to return.

Interrogate Nathaniel. When Lt. Blake budges in and bullies him, Nathaniel will pull a gun on Lt. Blake. To earn the Blunder Trophy, choose the R1 Button choice to brain Nathaniel on the spot. Sucks for him. Or, to earn the Self Control Trophy, keep reasoning and convincing Nathaniel to surrender until Lt. Blake successfully handcuffs him. This even includes the part when Nathaniel makes one final surprise turn.

Chapter 17: Suicide Baby (Scott)

The next person for Scott Shelby to interview is Mrs. Bowles (the mother of the dead boy whom Norman has checked out at the earlier crime scene).

The front door is locked, and nobody's answering, so walk around the house and enter via the unlocked back door. The baby is left unattended, and a letter left on the floor reeks of suicidal moods.

Scott should find the bedroom and then break through the door to the bathroom. Take Mrs. Bowles out of the bathtub, put her on her bed, grab the medical supplies from the bathroom sink mirror, and use them on Mrs. Bowles.

After listening to her initial sad story, Scott will help her with her baby, Emily. Wash the hands in either the kitchen sink or the bathroom sink. Change her diaper. Reheat the milk bottle in the kitchen, feed her, and help her burp. Rock her to sleep (do so slowly), and then place her gently into the carriage (again, slowly).

To earn the Baby Master Trophy, after saving Mrs. Bowles, when caring for her baby, make a perfect string of inputs, with zero errors. (Change to an easier difficulty setting for a better chance.)

Once the baby chores are done, return to Mrs. Bowles, and learn about the strange mobile phone. Take it from the drawers near the baby, and then head back out to the car.

Chapter 18: The Bear (Ethan)

The bear origami includes a car maintenance garage ticket. Eager to find his son, Ethan goes to the address listed on the message.

At the garage, talk to the mechanic working under a vehicle, and show him the ticket. Get the car key, take the elevator down, and use the car key's alarm beeper to find the correct car. Inside this car, search the left side of the driver's seat to find a GPS device.

The Origami Killer's first trial is driving against traffic. Ethan must do so, but don't worry about getting killed; messing up merely causes him to suffer close shaves that slow him down. Even if he fails here, he will survive and continue.

To earn the Good Driver Trophy, successfully pass the Origami Killer's first trial (driving against traffic), perfectly or not.

To earn the Kamikaze Trophy, make a perfect string of inputs, with zero errors. In addition, at the nine points where multiple choices are offered, make the following choices:

First multi-choice either LEFT or RIGHT
Second multi-choice only RIGHT
Third multi-choice only LEFT
Fourth multi-choice only LEFT (This leads to a small road barrier.)
Fifth multi-choice only RIGHT (This is for the cluster of three vehicles.)
Sixth multi-choice only RIGHT
Seventh multi-choice only RIGHT (This is for the toll area.)
Eighth multi-choice only RIGHT TILT (This is for the pair of cop cars.)
Ninth multi-choice either LEFT or RIGHT (This is for the barricade of cop cars.)

These decisions supposedly reflect the cleanest, least chaotic run down the freeway. Again, all the inputs must be perfectly made, with no errors. (Change to an easier difficulty setting for a better chance.)

No matter how well Ethan performs here, his ride will end with a glorious off-road crash. If he has succeeded, he will also get to smash apart the GPS device to acquire the key to the locked glove compartment, obtaining the first partial data on Shaun's location. The prompt icons here will be flipped upside-down, so handle them accordingly.

Chapter 19: First Encounter (Madison)

Madison has a weird disorder that lets her sleep well only at motels, so she comes to the Crossroad Motel, the same place where Ethan has a room.

Go to the reception desk, sign in, and then proceed up any sets of stairs to the 200s series of rooms (two floors up from the ground level).

As Madison approaches her own room (201), she will see Ethan leaning against a rail. Ethan has busted up his kidneys back at the car crash, and he isn't feeling so fantastic.

Help Ethan into his room, 207, and check him out. Go to the bathroom cabinet, take the disinfectant (the up arrow choice), and use it on Ethan's face (slowly). Next, take the painkillers (the down arrow choice), and give them to Ethan, too.

Chapter 20: Covered Market (Norman)

Norman has two possible suspects who fit his current profile. The first has been Nathaniel (the religious nut), and the second is some tough punk named Korda.

Korda will throw stinging hot coffee into Lt. Blake's face and then run like hell, so Norman should pursue him across the streets and into the grocery supermarket. To earn the Cat and Mouse Trophy, successfully chase Korda into the cold storage room, and then win the fight against him. (If Norman winds up getting his butt whupped, Lt. Blake will charge in to save the day.)
