Unable to sleep at her apartment, Madison checks into a motel - fortunately the motel Ethan is staying in.

DescriptionEdit

The chapter starts with Madison arriving at the motel. She walks into the lobby and fills out the registration book for the creepy receptionist. She does so and walks off thinking about how obnoxious the receptionist is. As she approaches her room, she sees Ethan leaning against the safety railing outside that floor's row of rooms and asks if he is okay. Ethan collapses and asks Madison to help him to his room. Madison does so and treats Ethan's wounds. The chapter ends with the player taking control of Ethan and picking out another origami figure.

WalkthroughEdit

You play as Madison. First go to the lobby, then go upstairs to her room. There you find Ethan. Help him get to his room, and aid his wounds. Take the disinfectant to disinfect Ethan's wounds. Make sure you do it slowly, otherwise he asks you to leave. Then, grab the painkiller and Ethan will then take a shower. After the shower, Madison will leave. You then play as Ethan. Grab the box, pick another origami figure out and the chapter ends.

TriviaEdit

• When Madison Paige checks into the Cross Road Motel in this chapter, the receptionist states her age as 27. However, if Madison dies over the course of the game, the gravestone in the ending, "Dead Heroine," says that she was born in 1981 which would make her 30 years old in 2011(The year in which the game takes place). Of course, she could have just lied about her age...
• This is the first chapter to show Madison in her clothes, as in "Sleepless Night", she was only shown in her underwear and tank top.
• This is the first time Ethan and Madison have crossed paths, and the second time two playable main characters appear in the same chapter. The first time where this has happened was in "Where's Shaun?"(Norman will appear depending if he didn't take the Triptocaine in "Welcome, Norman").
• Despite the introduction stating that the day is Wednesday, the clock at the reception says the date is Thursday, the 5th of October 2011. However, the 5th of October 2011 did fall on a Wednesday, so the date in the reception area is considered to be an error.
