After that, Ryan and Laura will drop down in the cave. We’ll get the control of Laura and we’ll find several collectibles in the cave. After getting the collectibles and going through the cave, Ryan and Laura will go through a door.
The cutscene will cut to Kaitlyn, Abi, and Dylan. They are back at the lodge. Dylan will ask about what happened here and Kaitlyn will get two options.
1- Dismissive
We have to keep moving
2- Honest
My bad…

Kaitlyn will look at the car and tell the group that she needs a rotor arm to fix the van. This option will only be available if you have chosen to take out the rotor arm in the 1st chapter. Kaitlyn will get two options.
1- Mean
Got something better to do?
2- Encouraging
I need you
After the cutscene, we’ll get a QTE in which we need to avoid slipping. Press the Down Cursor button to avoid slipping. After that, we’ll get an interruption in which there is an option to open the cage, but don’t open the cage as it has electricity on the bars. Then there’ll come another interruption in which we need to stop Laura because she’ll shoot the monster inside the cage and the monster in the cage is Nick. If she shot Nick, Nick will die and you wouldn’t be able to cure Nick later in the game. Press the action button to prevent Laura from shooting Nick.
You’ll see Jacob in one of the cages as well. Ryan will get two choices.
1- Leave Jacob
If you leave Jacob here then Jacob will die at the end of Chapter 9.
2- Help Jacob
If you help Jacob then he will not die later in the game.

To free Jacob from the cage, Ryan will need to press the breakers. There’ll be 4 breakers and Ryan will need to press 2 breakers at one time and then 2 breakers at one time. The order of pressing the breakers is the following.
You need to press the 1 and 2 Breaker, then you need to continue and press the 2 and 3 Breaker. Jacob will be free from the cage and after the cutscene the chapter will end.
