Listen through the warning before choosing a section
The THRESHOLD supermarket route includes conflicting directions spoken as Danny. One voice warns that the other is not him and explains that he is watching the CCTVs. Listen through that exchange, follow the current guidance and objective, then move toward the instructed section.
Do not memorize a rule to always choose drinks or always choose fruit. Listen for the warning that accompanies the direction; the section name and a familiar voice alone are not enough.
Finish preparation before the route decision
The shop break comes after the vehicle defense. Complete the Energy drink recovery instruction, check your sanity display and collect available Spare batteries before following the next task.
Restocking and choosing the route are different jobs. Once the objective moves on, stop browsing the shop as if you still had an unlimited preparation break. Read the new instruction and pay attention to the voices around it.
| Stage | Your focus |
|---|---|
| Recovery instruction | Finish the drink interaction and checkout |
| Supply check | Inspect batteries and equipment resources |
| Conflicting directions | Listen for the warning and CCTV guidance |
| A section is instructed | Move while following the current objective |
| Exit instruction | Leave the store rather than continue shopping |
The sanity guide covers the drink task. This page focuses on navigating the scene after that preparation.
Separate a familiar voice from a useful instruction
Hearing Danny’s voice is not enough to decide that a direction is safe. The scene deliberately presents competing calls. Let the warning finish before committing to the first section name you hear.
In the CCTV explanation, Danny says he is watching and tells you not to follow the other voice. Compare that exchange with the active objective rather than treating every spoken command as equal.
Listen for who is warning against whom, which section the current guidance names, and what your objective asks you to do. Then move. Do not stand still replaying a remembered direction while the scene is already asking you to leave.
Move through the section, then reassess
Follow the present instruction toward the drink or fruit section as directed by the scene. Watch for the next objective change. Once the task becomes exiting, stop trying to solve the earlier choice again.
| Confusion | Useful check |
|---|---|
| Two voices name different sections | Listen through the warning and CCTV explanation |
| You heard only the first section name | Read the active objective before committing |
| You are already moving but the task changes | Follow the new instruction |
| You copied a route from another run | Recheck the current cue instead of repeating it |
| You are still checking shelves after an exit task | Switch to leaving the store |
A recording where a player keeps saying over here does not establish a fixed left-or-right aisle route. Follow the named section in your current scene.
Keep this Story scene separate from Scrow’s market
Scrow’s mall also has a market area, but it is part of a password-paper search under pursuit. This Story supermarket scene is about recovery, misleading directions and progression through Episode 1.
If the screen asks for password papers and keypad digits, use the Scrow route guide. Continuing to wait for Danny’s Story warning in that objective will not find the missing paper.
The same distinction applies to voice chat. Listening to scripted directions here is different from speaking into your microphone during Chase. The voice chat guide explains that interaction separately.
Continue into the next defense task
After leaving the store, the episode continues and later introduces a low-sanity warning with hallucination defense. Read the new instruction instead of continuing to compare drink and fruit directions.
Once the scene progresses, leave the route decision behind and follow the new task. Use the Episode 1 walkthrough to locate that next section.
FAQ
Should I always choose the fruit section?
No fixed section choice replaces the scene’s current warning and objective. Listen to the CCTV guidance before moving.
Why do two Danny voices give different directions?
Conflicting guidance is part of the supermarket scene. A familiar voice alone is not a reliable instruction.
Is this the market where Scrow papers spawn?
It is a Story scene. Scrow’s market belongs to a separate Chase password-paper objective.
Should I keep shopping after the route changes?
Finish preparation during its task, then follow the current route or exit instruction. Do not let shelf searching replace progression.
