11:06 P.M.[]
Bus Crash Site[]
Taylor attempting to get signal.
Ravine[]
Meanwhile, Daniel, having fallen out of the bus with Angela into the ravine, gets to his feet. He hears Angela behind him and helps her up. She asks what happened, to which Daniel can reply that she will be fine, which annoys Angela, who will reply that she doesn't need help or reply that everything happened too fast, after which Angela will calm him down.Daniel starts calling for John and they have a dialogue about the situation. Daniel asks what caused the crash, to which John replies that perhaps the driver was trying to avoid something, and also notice that he is not in any of the groups. Because of the steep slope, John instructs the guys to follow the trail and regroup further on the road.
Taylor and John help Andrew get off the ground. He does not remember the crash and mentions a dream with a flame that felt real. John informs them that they will meet the others on the trail, much to Taylor's dismay, who doesn't want to leave the bus.
- If she agrees with the plan, John will be surprised that he was right and the guys will go.
- If she decides to stay by the bus, John will go alone. Andrew will convince Taylor to stick together and will notice a bruise on her neck, but she will say that she may have gotten them during the crash.
- If Taylor has a low relationship with John and says the bus driver could have just wandered off, she will receive a locked trait Aggressive.
- If Taylor doesn't say anything, she will receive a locked trait Uncertain.
While walking down the road, Taylor can:
- Pick up the driver's book near the bus.
- Examine the stick doll lying on the stones. Taylor will comment that it was pulled from a horror movie, to which John will comment that they were used to ward off evil spirits.
- Talk to Daniel and Angela. Angela will say that this detour ruined her clothes, which Taylor can joke about. Andrew will ask what is going on and Taylor will reply that she is raising up their spirits, after which she will ask Daniel about the phone. He will answer that it must have fallen out (if he didn't find it earlier) or reveal that it's broken, after which they will move on, while the girl is seen watching them.
- Examine a vandalized sign of Little Hope, with "Little" scratched out and replaced with "Abandon". Taylor and Andrew don't recognize the town and John will tell them that it is famous for the fascinating history of witch trials.
Angela responds to Daniel's worries about Taylor by insulting her, and Daniel can defend Taylor or say he doesn't want to know.
- If Daniel agrees with Angela, he will get tinnitus and receive a locked trait Derisive.
Following the trail, Angela tells Daniel that she is going to file charges against the college, which is responsible for their safety. Daniel can find his phone to be broken, and Taylor can call to them (which she always does in Curator's Cut) and the dialogue will be as in Theatrical Cut. Upon reaching a stream, Angela refuses to go further, because she is afraid of water and getting her clothes dirty. Daniel must complete QTEs to get to the other side and then help Angela.
- If he completes QTE, Angela will recognize him as a gentleman.
- If he fails QTE and has a low relationship with Angela, she will fall into the water and blame Daniel for it.
- If he fails QTE and has a high relationship with Angela, she will fall into the water and blame the mossy rocks instead of Daniel.
Both groups meet each other at the disused pylon, but are separated by the chained gate. John instructs them to find something to break it. Andrew finds a metal pipe and give it to Taylor.
- If she and Daniel fail the QTE twice, then John and Angela will open the gate instead.
