Synopsis

Flashback

Lisa inside of Hotel Persephone

Lisa is in the lobby. Take a picture of the image on her laptop. Elliott must be a reasonable distance away or Lisa will close the laptop. Elliott remembers meeting Lisa at the hotel and seeing Savo arrive. A bodyguard guards the elevator in the hotel lobby. Lisa followed Elliott to the hotel. She then reveals that Savo killed her sister. Lisa offers to distract the bodyguard so that Elliott can get upstairs. Its also revealed that the laptop actually belongs to Lisa.

The memory items to unlock the achievement 'Persephone'

Recorder on table on the other side of the hotel lobby:

[Savo and his henchman discussing growing suspicions about Savo’s research and a breach in his
Institute’s security around research on the sixth sense. The breach doesn’t concern Savo.]

Folder on the table next to Lisa:

“

Los Angeles Sun Staff photographer Elliott Maslow, 36 A photo-journalist for the last 17 years, Maslow was nominated for several photo-journalism awards over the years but has since fallen out of favour. Maslow was suspended last year during a violent incident in Venice, Italy for questionable judgement while a fellow journalist’s wife was in danger.

”

Letter on the table next to Lisa:

“

My dearest Lisa. If you are reading this, it means I’m dead. I can’t believe what’s happened -- The research being done at Savo’s institute has gone horribly wrong. Lives are in jeopardy. Patients are being injected with lethal chemicals. All in the pursuit of a mad dream… I’m so scared, and so sorry I won’t see your face again. Please don’t let it be for nothing. Tell the world who Savo really is. I love you. Joanne - 08/23/1999

”

On the Island

Elliott is a prisoner at the Swan. The lights go out and Elliott starts his lighter. Lisa appears and says "she can help you". Kate is guarding the Swan and Elliott. Talking to Kate triggers a flashback at the mention of the word Chenchey.

Elliott remembers that he was a journalist and uses that information to convince Kate to release him. After escaping the Swan, Elliott should examine the other section of the Swan hidden on the other side of the river. The door will be found to be locked and will require dynamite to open it.

Hurley at the beach camp kitchen.

Return the beach and find Hurley, who is making a list of the food at the beach camp kitchen. He will tell you to go to the Black Rock for the dynamite.

There are flags leading from the Swan through the dark territory to the ship. Elliott makes his way from flag to flag but the monster is active in the area as well. Elliott has to hide in the Banyon roots between checkpoints. The DHARMA van can be seen beside a clearing in the Dark Territory. Buy a gun from Charlie who is at the beach camp. Grab things from the Swan to see if you have no money. There is an Apollo candy bar located by the sink in the Swan bathroom that is worth $50.

Savo's body guard

A person will take shots at you from the trees. Shoot him out of the tree with the gun but save a few bullets for later. This is not strictly necessary, but it makes the return journey with the dynamite easier. When you arrive at the ship, go inside and get the dynamite. Do not run with the dynamite or it will explode. Leave the area and return to the Dark Territory. The return journey is more difficult in that you must dodge the monster but never run because of the dynamite. If the monster sees you in the tree roots, wait at least 15 seconds before leaving. Getting through this requires being slow and methodical.

The Incident Room.

If Elliott doesn't have a gun, he needs to buy one from Charlie. Go to the Swan entrance on the other side of the river. Place the dynamite on the door, move back as far as possible and then shoot the dynamite opening the door. Enter the other section of the Swan. There is a large wrecked reactor of some sort in the center of the building. On one side is a computer. To access the computer, you must pass psychology test 12/42.

First Question: 26-17-20-11-14-5-(?)

Answer: 8

Second Question: Z-X-V-T-(?)

Answer: R

Third Question: GOD is to DOG as 394 is to?

Answer 493

The computer has three items in the menu. Send a ping, check station status and neutralize reactor. The only interesting one is "neutralize reactor". When this is done, the large machine in the center of the station shuts down and Elliott's compass stops spinning. A message appears on the computer: "We know what you did Elliott Maslow. And we will find you".

Trivia

The beach camp starts to evolve in this episode, as the survivors have added a kitchen stocked with DHARMA food and fruit.
In the original trailer for Lost: Via Domus, the message on the Swan computer reads "FIND US AND WE WILL SHOW YOU THE WAY". However, in the final version of the game, the message reads "WE KNOW WHAT YOU DID ELLIOTT MASLOW. AND WE WILL FIND YOU".
