Finale: You Know Me
Briefing
Here's the deal, suga'. I just finished talkin' with Chief Interrogator Washington, and he told me that he and his boys found out where the Resistance are keepin' one of their main supplies in the tunnels.
He asked for me to see if you could go in there and retrieve it. He said he'd do it himself, but he and his boys are tryin' to locate a woman named Ricochet for somethin' she went and did.
Shouldn't be too difficult for someone like you, right? He said the place has been abandoned, so it should just be a simple deal of takin' their supplies.
This arc is a SINGLE PLAYER MORAL CHOICE story arc. You will not be able to have other people on your team assist you with this story arc.
- You'd be surprised how quickly 'simple' turns to 'complicated'.
Hah! I'm sure I would, suga'. I wouldn't worry too much about it, Washington is a good hound. He knows trouble when he sees it - believe me.
Here's the location of where this little box should be, just make sure to watch your back.
Raid the Resistance Base
Unnecessary Solicitation
What's wrong, Character? Need that location again?

Weapons Cache |
| At first glance the weapons in the crate looked real enough, but once you picked one up you realized they were nothing more than a few real components attached to scrap. |
You've been led into a trap!
|
Ambush! After checking the weapons cache, you will be ambushed by five waves of Resistance.
|
Meet with Chief Interrogator Washington
|
Trap |
| It's pretty obvious that you were expected and quite possibly even set up. Could Cleopatra be behind this? |
Unnecessary Solicitation
You okay there, suga'?
Mission Objective(s)
- Meet with Chief Interrogator Washington (Single Player)
Briefing
Character, good to see you made it out of that fire fight alive. I was hoping Faulks would get there in time.
- What's going on Washington? What do you know?
I'll tell you in one moment, Character. I just need to know one thing.
Were you the one who set those bugs up in the PPD Precinct?
- I was, now answer my question.
Washington smiles, letting out a relieved sigh.
I knew it. This was the final piece of the puzzle, Character. You were set up by Cleopatra.
Cleopatra is a Resistance spy, a member of the Wardens.
She wanted you dead because you knew the answer to the question I just asked you.
- How do the bugs prove that she's a spy?
Sergeant Chance, one of the men you bugged, was killed earlier. He was sent to investigate a Resistance weapons cache and was killed. The same cache you were sent to investigate.
There was no way for them to know about it...until we discovered a bug in his desk. I asked Cleopatra about the bug - she claimed to not know about it, but I knew, I knew she was investigating something previously in that precinct. When I asked her where you went, she said to attack a warehouse the Resistance was holed up in.
My men reported back that it was empty - that was when I knew that Cleopatra was trying to kill you off, just like Chance.
You're the one person that can prove Cleopatra's guilt, Character! No one but you has the proof that she was the one who set up the bugs, which places her directly to blame for how the Resistance picked up the information on those bugs.
- And now what, Washington?
Now, we prepare ourselves. Talk to me when you're ready, Character.
We're going to put an end to Cleopatra's treason.
- Got it.

Traitor |
| According to Chief Interrogator Washington, Cleopatra is secretly a member of the Resistance. You are the witness he needs to uncover her treason. |

Briefing
Character, I'm sorry I couldn't go and let you know that I was with the resistance. I thought you were just one of them two-bit Loyalists like Washington over here.
Believe me, I wouldn't have gone and tried to send you to your death and all if I knew you were gonna be on -our- side.
But we gotta make sure we get our stories straight about what happened here, you understand? Both of us are in too deep now to have our cover blown. I have an idea, though, on what we can do.
- What's your idea? (A)
- We take Washington's evidence and turn it on him.
- We make it look like he was the spy from the Resistance. I can get my people to back that claim as well.
- So... we say that we lured him here to reveal his actions?
- Exactly.
- We wanted to bring him in, but he tried to kill the both of us - right in the heart of Cole's tower. Isn't that a shame?
- We had no choice but to put him down - he was too dangerous to just let go.
- All that said and done, we ain't going to be worrying about our covers being blown.
- However, you're gonna have to be the one to break the news to Michael about Washington. I've got to deal with cleaning things up in my office. You okay with that?
- Speaking to Praetor White is never pleasant, but I'll do it.
- Great. Now get goin' before anyone starts getting suspicious. And Character?
- Thanks. You chose the right side.
- Don't worry about it.
- You should know, Cleopatra, that I spoke with Calvin Scott. He ordered me to kill you.
- We - what?
- So Scott wanted me dead, huh? Can't say I blame him too much. I messed up, I got sloppy.
- Now, this isn't me sayin' I'm fine with him tryin' to off me, suga'.
- The man is gonna have to answer for this, but not now.
- When we bring down Cole's empire, I'll be there, waitin' to deal with Scott myself. I'll show him just exactly what happens when you try to backstab me.
- Meantime, you and me, suga', we got ourselves a situation to handle.
- What's the plan?
- This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (A)
Speak with Praetor White
Unnecessary Solicitation
You had better focus on meeting with Praetor White.
Mission Objective(s)
- Speak with Praetor White (Single Player)
Briefing
Eh? What do you want, Character?
- I've got some unfortunate news - Chief Interrogator Washington was a traitor.
What?! Washington a traitor?!
You better have some proof of this, Character, or else I'm gonna fling your sorry self straight to the top of Cole's tower!
- Easy there. Cleopatra has all the evidence you'll need.
Wha?
Huh... well, would you look at that. So the two of you went and caught yourselves a traitor. And Washington! I would've thought that guy would be the last person to betray us. Goes to show how much you can trust someone.
Well, good on you for doing that, Character, along with my girl Cleo.
Gotta say, it's refreshin' to know that there's someone like you here weedin' out the traitors. Just be careful you don't get too full of yourself and point your finger at someone who ain't a traitor.
- Wouldn't dream of it, Praetor White. I'll be taking my leave now.
Kill Cleopatra
Mission Objective(s)
- Kill Cleopatra
- Talk to Chief Interrogator Washington
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Cleopatra (Boss)
- Chief Interrogator Washington (Boss) (Ally)
Briefing
It isn't easy serving Praetoria, Character.
We all thought Cleopatra was one of us. I didn't want to believe it when my evidence began to point towards her.
We did the right thing. If we arrested her, we would have to deal with Praetor White. He would have shattered the peace that we're trying to hard to keep in Nova just to prove her 'innocence'.
Her death was the only way to keep the people of Praetoria safe. You understand, I'm sure.
All that is left is cleaning up some loose ends.
- What else is hanging?
Dealing with Praetor White.
Someone is going to have to speak with him regarding what happened today.
I believe that someone should be you, Character.
Tell him what happened here - but tell him that I killed Cleopatra. If you tell him you had any role in harming her, he will strike you down where you stand. I don't want to see that happen, not to you.
He will be angry, but you must remind him that he serves Praetoria now, not his own selfish ambitions.
Do we have an agreement on this?
- I'll speak with Praetor White.
Excellent. Good luck speaking with him, Character.
- Thanks, Washington.

Washington's Plan |
| You went into Cleopatra's office to find Washington facing her down, accusing Cleopatra of charges against Praetoria. Washington looked to you for help in carrying out his death sentence on Cleopatra.
You helped Washington carry out his judgment on Cleopatra, looking to keep the peace and prosperity of Praetoria. Afterwards you spoke to Washington, who asked that you go handle the fallout from this with Praetor White. |
Speak with Praetor White
Unnecessary Solicitation
You had better focus on meeting with Praetor White.
Mission Objective(s)
- Speak with Praetor White (Single Player)
Briefing
Eh? What do you want, Character?
- Your girlfriend, Cleopatra. She was a member of the Resistance.
What?!
This ain't funny, Character, you got two seconds to explain yourself! What's going on here?!
- (Explain Washington's investigation and execution)
Praetor White looks down, clenching his fists
...
So...Washington went and offed her, huh...guess he had a point. I woulda gotten Cleo outta anything. Had to do what he had to do.
All for Cole's empire and safety, yeah?
Praetor White stomps his foot hard on the ground, letting out a grunt.
That's how it's gotta be, Character. You take a lesson from all this. Me? I was blinded by that woman. Who knows how long she was in the Resistance for? How long she was usin' me? I ain't gonna let it happen again though.
I don't care that she 'betrayed' Marcus' whole damn regime, I just care that she went and played me like that. Just...stay outta my way for now, Character. You see me walkin' into the tunnels, you better believe that I'm gonna kill any of those pieces of filth I come across.
- Alright, Praetor White. I'll leave you to your thoughts.
- That's it? Your girlfriend dies and that's all you have to say?
- You got a better idea, Character?!
- You don't wanna start this conversation, Character, I'm warnin' you, 'cause it ain't gonna end well for you!
- Alright, whatever, I'm backing off.
- I'm starting it, White. Did you even -care- about her?
- Praetor White lets out a deep growl, hovering over you.
- You think I'm heartless, Character?! You ain't just gonna be with someone for all that time and not care!
- But she betrayed me, betrayed what we had, made me look like a fool! You think I'm gonna be fine with that?!
- I ain't! And it's all 'cause of them pieces of filth in the Resistance and old Marcus over there! If neither of 'em were part of this damn equation, this wouldn't be a problem, and she never woulda had to gone and do all that. And you know what? It's just how it is, 'til one of those two are taken care of.
- The Resistance? Or Cole?
- Praetor White remains silent for a moment.
- Guess we'll see what happens. Now get outta here, I'm done talkin' with you.
- Nice chat, Praetor White.
