Prep

To successfully utilize this guide you need the following items:

1. THE COIN

The coin is the most powerful item in the game and when used appropriately can be taken with you throughout the mission. The best part is you can bring it with you from the start of the mission.

Common use case in this guide: Distract one NPC by flicking the coin where they won't be seen by other NPCs and then knocking them out.

Tip: Coins can be buggy sometimes. Usually it's best practice to allow your distractee to pick the coin up before knocking them out otherwise the coin can sometimes not be retrieved.

2. Blunt melee weapons/throwables (hammer, wrench, etc.).

Picked up throughout the level. I will direct you to where you can find your first but there will be many I don't mention along your path throughout the level (especially in the attic section).

Common use case in this guide: Two individuals in the room/area and you need to take them both out rather quickly. Smack the first upside the head when the other still has their back turned and then you can throw the hammer at the other. Knocks two people out very quickly.

THE MAN

First, we are going after the man in the relationship. This is easily accomplished with a little prep and abuse of mechanics.

  • First, starting off at the main gate you enter through the main entrance and stay on the left side of the main stairs where we first encounter the target. On the left side of that stairwell is a single door that leads to the basement. Open it and head downstairs. To your left there should be a wrench in a box.
  • Turn back and check your map looking for the locker rooms (it's on the right from how you exited the stair well). Head inside and make certain the crying woman/man won't see you as you leave the locker room through the other side. OPTIONAL: see ERASING TAPES section to destroy the security cameras recording capabilities.
  • Keep heading down the hallway staying crouched and making certian the individuals in the cafeteria (to your left) do not see you as you continue down.
  • Take your third left and it should lead you through an unoccupied wine section. The far side of this room should have the kitchen immediately to your right.
  • Wait for the chefs to either have their backs both turned and then leave the wine room and take a right into the single door that leads to the stairwell. Go to the second floor.
  • Open the door and trigger the conversation between the model and the stage crew member who are speaking to one another but stay inside the stairwell and wait for them to finish. The stage crew will eventually be on your left side facing the stage/fashion show which allows you to exit right and take an immediate right into a hallway. The security at the end will have his back turned to you and a model will be nearby with her phone. Approach the back of the security member (the model will not do anything to you as she either believes you are supposed to be there or is wrapped up in her phone it's unclear). Do not harm the security but instead take a right and enter the second door on your right (you will now be inside a bathroom with a waiter directly outside the door (his back to you)). Saving here would be a good idea.
  • NOTE: your TARGET will pass through this small hallway so make sure he is either on the other side of the map or has just passed the area so you will not be interrupted.
  • Equip your coin. If the door to the bathroom has closed open it. Now standing infront of the cabinet/closet flick your coin into the opposite corner and enter the cabinet. Since the door is open the waiter should hear this and investigate. Once he enters and reaches your coin (beginning to bend down) exit the cabinet and knock out (either wrench or strangle) the waiter. Store the body inside the cabinet.
  • Body stowed, equip you wrench. Across the hall from your bathroom is the area where they are preparing food for the party. Ideally, you want to enter the room after you know the staff member has patrolled all the way to the left side and begun working (both staff should have their back to you). Crouch wakling in sneak behind the closer of the two and apply your wrench to their head. Then throw your wrench into the back of the other individual. With both knocked out you have two options.
  • Option 1: store both bodies inside the cabinet in this room saving you some time now and helpful if you think the TARGET will return soon.
    Option 2: drag each body out and into the other bathroom and store them in the cabinets there.
  • Regardless of which choice you made you should stay in the food prep room and await your TARGET.
  • Ideally, you want to be near the cabinet (there is a standup food storage near it in the center of the room, hide behind this. Once they have entered flip your coin into the corner across from the storage cabinet that may or may not have the food preparers in them (there is a tiny alcove perfect for your coin to settle in and kind of obscures the view of anyone else looking from the more open part of the room). The guard should begin to move over there and will likely take the path to your left so you want to crouch and sneak along the counter staying out of his line of sight. Once the guard gets to the corner simply sneak behind him and knock him out (probably wrench). Then, I just threw my wrench into the target and knocked him out.
  • Taking your wrench back snap the targets neck and store both the guard and target into a cabinet either in the bathroom or in the food prep room and exit the way you came until you arrive at the stairs where we will begin "the woman".

THE WOMAN

While not necessary it's very helpful if you have done "The Man" section first.

Read each point to completion before your unpause as it typcially has a lot of information.

  • Coin and throw item use is going to be very helpful for this section, we're going to be knocking out a lot of guards and while not all of them may be necessary it makes our life easier.
  • We pick up where we left off in the rear stairwell first floor (one up from basement and the middle of the stairwell).

  • Head up one level and there should be a stage crewmember working. Approach him from behind and knock him out. Drag him all the way down the stairs and leave him in the cabinet just outside the kitchen and head back to the top of the stairwell.
  • Exit the stairwell and take a left being mindful of the guards that patrol around on this section it's probably safest to either check your map or wait for them to go by.
  • Once the guards have turned left and are walking away you should be able to proceed straight ahead. SECURITY CAMERA WARNING. Directly above the door to the area above the fashion show is monitored by a camera. The green laser grid on the floor is the camera's view so exit once it has panned away. Continue straight along the area above the fashion show until you get to the last door on the right side SECURITY CAMERA WARNING this door has a security camera above it so make sure you either take it out or have the ability to move by unseen, enter this room. If you get caught your mission is not over but we will have to remove the footage (if you did this during the Man portion you're fine to get caught, if not, see the appropraite section ERASING TAPES). When you have entered the room there may be an open door on the right side. Close this door without being seen. Save.
  • By the desk there should be a door to another hallway outside. There will be several guards on patrol in this area so make certain you don't get seen while exiting. Our goal is to make it into the room across from this door so when they have their backs turned to you on their patrol route enter the room.
  • This is some sort of storage area for musem pieces. Sneak to the other side of the room pausing and letting the two NPCs have their brief conversation about the vase. Once they are done speaking they should both turn their backs allowing you to have access to the door the leads to the balcany (the balcany facing the front/street where we started).
  • Having reached the balcany you should see a ladder to your right which will give you third floor access. Climb it and enter the attic. Save.
  • This is an area where it will take a large amount of time to describe everything in detail so I will simply abbreviate the instructions as follows: There is a large number of guards in the attic and a large number of body storage boxes. Using your skills with the coin/wrench you should be able to dispose of them and deposit them in various boxes around the attic (boxes hold two bodies) without raising too much suspcion. I will explain my process for doing this below the rest of this guide to keep this part more intact. SEE ATTIC GUARDS SECTION BELOW.
  • Guards disposed of we should have access to the light rig above the fashion show, since all the guards that monitor this are unconcious and hidden in boxes we are able to vault the railing and crawl onto this lighting assembly. Once you have reached the far end you should see a guard standing in the window of a room (this is where TARGET) will meet with various people.
  • if you're lucky she will have just had a meeting and will be leaving. If not you can either save and take a chance, or wait for her to have a meeting and leave.
  • She just left. Throw your wrench from your position on the light rig so that you knock out the one guard in the room. Then climb into the room and drag the guard into the storage closet. either in the bathroom or in the room itself. Pick up his gun as well and hide it in the bathroom.
  • Save. Now the wait begins. Our TARGET should enter the meeting room next door and we are going to utilize the same tactic as we did on the first waiter. Once she enters and the door to the exterior has closed open the bathroom door and flick your coin into the far corner by the sink. Sneak and hide behind the cabinet in this room, if you're very lucky the TARGET will investigate. Allow her to reach the coin by the toilet allow the door to close and then knock her out/kill her in whatever manner you deem fit (it may be possible to drown her I'm not sure). Store her body in the bathroom cabinet.
  • If you're unlucky simply repeat this process for the target after you have hidden the other persons body. Storing bodies in the main/bathroom as necessary. Leave the way you came.
  • Once we are back across the light rig its extraction time.

    The art of extraction:
  • Since we have most of the way cleared already I'd recommend using the basement extraction point but if you think you can get out easier another way go for it. Furthermore, this extraction is prety natural if you have to follow the ERASING TAPES section like I did before I knew how security cameras worked. Either way, follow the instructions in the next points and read the ERASING TAPES section when directed if you have to erase the tapes.
  • Assuming you didn't get seen on camera move back to where you accessed the attic (the balcany ladder). Climb down and wait for the guards to cycle again on the vase and enter the room. Let the hallway guards cycle and move through the hallway back to the room you were in before (should be on your left). Once we are back here we want to make sure the guards aren't going to patrol into us as soon as we open the door and use caution around the security camera well when exiting into the area above the fashion show. Head back to your stairwell and head down to the kitchen. Take a left out of the kitchen back into the wine room we were in before and be sure the kitchen staff has their backs to you before you do this.
  • After you're back in your winery area simply proceed to the other side of this room, take a left, and you should see your extract on the right side. Otherwise, it's time to check out the ERASING TAPES section.

    ATTIC GUARD SECTION:
  • Once you have climbed up there should be two guards in the next room. Simply crouch around the cover and flick a coin onto the far side of them. Approach the one who doesn't go after the coin and knock him out with your wrench. Then knock out the second guard who is getting your coin (probably throw the wrench at him). Store the bodies in box in the first room you entered (long drag).
  • There should be another two guards ahead who are monitoring this side of the lighting rig. Distract one with a coin and knock him out. Then approach his friend from behind or repeat the distraction. Hide their bodies in the box by the first two guards.
  • Opposite these two guards (on the other side of the rig in the attic) should be two more guards on patrol. Sneak along the attic until you get to their side and repeat your distract/knockout into knockout tactics again. With these three patrols knocked out you should have clear access to the lighting rig.

ERASING TAPES

Ah, either you have screwed up or you want to make sure you get through without being seen or are simply taking the precaution ahead of time to make sure the cameras can't record you.

I assume that you are at the start of THE MAN or at the end of THE WOMAN. Essentially, you're in the basement. Start yourself in the hallway on the locker room side of the cafeteria. Furthermore, you want to be on the right side of the door into the cafeteria if you're looking in from this hallway. There will likely be 1-2 individuals in the cafeteria currently, one close and one far. If not there will be two in there eventually, just wait.

Distract the closer one first with your coin by leading him into your hallway. Once he bends down and retrieves it and starts to head back to the cafeteria you can either throw your wrench or melee/grab him. Once he's down drag him back into one of the body storage boxes located in the rooms on the left or right side of your hallway (either will do).

One down; one to go. Enter the cafeteria and coin distract the man sitting out of his seat and knock him out as well disposing of the body in the same manner. Save.

Finally, on the far side of the cafeteria that you have just cleaned out is another hallway. To your left (when looking at the hallway from inside the cafeteria). Is the security room. 3 guards should be present in the room. I recommend you do the following:

Looking into the security room from where you are at the cafeteria door you should see a guard either on the right or left side of the door (you can check your map/use instinct to locate him if you have them on) or simply wait for him to patrol one way or the other. Save.

The guard should be on the right or left, either way your save should help you out if you mess up and actually want him on the other side (just wait for the patrol). But give this a shot no matter which side he ended up on first before you reload and try again:

Approach the small box behind the open door to the security room (right side of the hallway) and switch it off. This will turn the power off in the security room. Back up and hide behind a box or your door. Hopefully your standing guard will come out and check on it. Sneak up on him and strangle him. Restore power to the room. Dispose of your guards body in box on the left side of the hallway right outside the security room. Now, one guard is likely sitting back down at his terminal in the security room but the other may have left entirely to go to another room. Either way wait for the one to settle back down and then sneak into the room. Directly infront of you should be a table where you can erase the tapes. Simply sneak back out into the hallway, and back to the other side of the cafeteria to continue on with your mission or extract.
