Chapter 1

Once you can control your character, look around Max's room. Here you will find a couple of interesting items, first and foremost, the plant that you can water. After doing this leave the room and head left. Follow the corridor to the restroom. In the restroom you will meet Taylor, whom you can talk to. On selecting dialogue option "Comfort Her" she will reveal a secret to you. Finally, you may promise her to keep that secret to yourself.

After the conversation with Taylor leave the restroom and head to Dana's room. You can talk to her about what happened to Kate. The conversation goes differently, depending on whether or not you let Kate commit suicide in the previous episode. During the conversation Dana asks you to find the person behind Kate's decision, and you may assure her you will.

After the conversation with Dana leave the dormitories and head toward the parking lot. On your way you will encounter the headmaster, who is drunk, making it impossible for you to walk forward unnoticed. In order to sneak past him, you have to approach the place shown in the picture and rewind time as much as you can. After doing this you will notice the headmaster trying to open the door, facing you away. Now you can walk toward the exit.
