You ignore Patrick and focus on Felicity. She tells you about Patrick’s plans, and together, you devise a way to stop him without violence. It’s risky, but it works.

Patrick answers after the third ring. “Jacob? I was just about to call you. We need to talk.” His voice is calm, but you can hear the tension underneath.

Patrick answers after the third ring. “Jacob? I was just about to call you. We need to talk.” His voice is calm, but you can hear the tension underneath. Do you [[confront and question him about the betrayal|ConfrontPatrick2]] right now? Or do you (link-reveal: "play it cool and listen")[(show:?3)] to see what he has to say?

She doesn't pick up the call, but you heard a yell outside: "Are you drowning in the toilet or what?? Food's getting cold." Awkwardly, you respond: [["Coming!"|4-2]] [["Yeah, give me a second, Im not feeling very well. Was calling you to ask for some meds."|meds2]] After a few moments Jane knocks on the door. You open the door and take the meds. "I'll be out in just a second". You close the door after her and [[go back to the home page|phone2]]

(set: $knife to 1)You grab a knife from the kitchen drawer, your hands shaking with rage. Patrick betrayed you. He killed you. And now, you’re going to make sure he pays. You decided to [[think twice|5-2]], or (link-reveal:"storm out of the house")[(show:?2)]|2)[, heading straight for Patrick’s apartment. When you arrive, the door is locked].

You approach him, but when he sees you, he gives you a punch, You decided to [[fight back|fightback2]] or [[try to talk to him|try to talk2]]

Hidden, you overhear Patrick muttering: "Jacob, you traitor. How could you?" Confused, you decide to [[show yourself and question him|showquestion2]] or [[Continue to follow him secretly|continuefollow2]]

You calm yourself down from the anger, planning on what to do next. Jane looks at you in confusion, and sits next to you. Maybe you can [[start a conversation|TellJane2]] with her, or you can [[search|search2]] for some other things.

Patrick is sitting on the couch, a gun in his hand. He looks up, startled, but then he smirks. “Jacob,” he says calmly. “I was wondering how long it would take you to show up.” (if: $knife is 1)You don’t [[hesitate2]].

"I'll figure this out. Leave me alone right now." You respond.

You almost slap him hard from the back, and yell:"What are you talking about? You're the traitor" "You betrayed me first!" Patrick yells, anger flaring.

... After a long talk, you finally understood what happened, but it seems unbelieveable. You decide to [[forgive|forgive2]] Patrick.

You lower the knife/gun, your hands still shaking. “Why, Patrick? Why did you betray me?” Patrick sighs, lowering the gun. “You think I wanted to? Jane’s the one pulling the strings. She’s been manipulating us both.” Your stomach drops. “Jane? What are you talking about?” Patrick leans in, his voice low. “She’s not who you think she is, Jacob. And if we don’t stop her, we’re both dead.” [[Believe Patrick and team up|Team2]] [[Accuse Patrick of lying and attack|lunge at him2]] [[Walk away and think|WalkAwayThink2]]

You lower the knife completely, your mind racing. “Fine. We’ll work together. But if you betray me again, I’ll kill you.” Patrick smirks. “Noted. Now, let’s figure out how to stop Jane.” The two of you start planning, but you can’t shake the feeling that Patrick is hiding something. [[Trust Patrick and follow his plan|TrustPatrick2]] [[Betray Patrick and go after Jane alone|BetrayPatrick2]] [[Walk away and think|WalkAwayThink2]]

You can’t do this. Not yet. You lower the knife and walk away, leaving Patrick behind. Suddenly, you hear a (link-reveal: "call from Felicity")[(show:?2)] |2)[With Felicity's help, you discover Jane manipulated everyone to believe betrayal occurred, playing you and Patrick against each other - at least that's what Felicity said.] |2)[As you step outside, the cool air hits you, but it doesn’t help. Your mind is a whirlwind of thoughts. Patrick’s accusations. The idea that Jane might be involved. ]

It’s not easy, but you realize that holding onto the past is only hurting you. You wonder if you should [[tell him about that you might not be the person he knew2]] or just [[move on|moveon2]].

You both agree to move on. It’s not a perfect ending, but it’s a start. For some reasons, you feel like you're missing out on something. [[restart|title2]]
