At Donna's mercy, Thompson tries to implore Donna that she doesn't have to kill him, only to find out "Donna" was really Penny in disguise, and replaced Donna back at the motel room several hours before by ambushing and knocking her out, and then taking her place.

Penny, vengeful and bitter towards Thompson for seducing and having sex with her that night, wants to kill him, and is poised to with her gun at his head, only for the Kill Squad to finally arrive; one of their bullets blowing Penny's head off, killing her. Thompson is given cover fire by the Kill Squad, and he is able to break free of the two clones holding him (when one is shot and Thompson punches out another).

Despite Fallon's protests for him to stay, Thompson races off towards the bridge, using a radio to request for backup on the bridge, a request denied by Gael as "the package" had been secured. Gael leaves him to "make his own mistakes", and Thompson's backup team is killed. Unaware of all this, Thompson finally reaches the bridge, but only 20 seconds remain before detonation. Noticing Donna's feet are nailed through a wooden board to the ground, Thompson still refuses to let her die there. Just as Thompson tries to express his love for her, Donna pushes him off the bridge, expressing her love for him just as the bridge explodes, with Thompson falling into the river below, screaming her name all the way.

Micah keeps his silence for a moment, and then claims that he knows everything about Eric, calling him a killer just like his father, and citing the incident at Evs Dropper's cabin, which cost the life of many of his co-workers, including Donna Dunlap, and that he wants to find Sabine to kill her baby. Eric explains that the baby might grow up to be someone dangerous someday, but Micah won't budge. Eric tells him that he's not the one in control, but Micah retorts this by saying that he's been reprogramming a nearby crane, which proceeds to lunge for Eric.

Next, the man opens a leather-bound notebook and reads as he instructs the player to search the desk and file cabinet. After the player completes doing so and learns the extent of Red Eye's involvement with the Kill Squad, the man admits he had already begun searching the room and the player has now caught up with him. Together, the player and this man then search the apartment and find a closet contains two dead bodies in plastic garbage bags.
