What this episode adds

  • 01Fatigue: an overused hero starts at -2 to every stat
  • 02Multi-hero dispatch, and that pairings buff each other
  • 03Relationships start paying out — or not

The calls

In order, with the pick that gets the clean outcome.

Chemical Spill

Intellect 7+ · Vigor 8+

A containment problem disguised as an emergency. The wrong hero does not just fail here, they make the zone bigger.

Send Sonar

Never Golem

  • Sonar, if rested — spill contained, science team grateful, relationship +3.
  • Malevola — adequate and slower, no injuries. The fallback when Sonar is fatigued.
  • Golem — brute force widens the contamination zone. Public perception -3.

The only call on the board with a single correct answer. Prism has Charisma 9, the requirement is 8, and the next-best hero has 7.

Send Prism

Never Golem, Flambae

  • Prism — crowd calmed, SDN reputation up, and it unlocks her Episode 3 arc.
  • Malevola — Charisma 7 is barely adequate. Reputation flat. Only if Prism is unavailable.
  • Anyone else — Charisma 6 or below does not clear the bar.

Multi-Hero Mission

Combat 7+ · Mobility 6+

Your first two-hero dispatch. Pairings are not just additive — the right two heroes buff each other.

Send Coupé

  • Coupé + Golem — best synergy in the game: +2 to both heroes' stats, plus the Perfect Pairing achievement.
  • Flambae + Invisigal — stealth and fire works, faster but with more property damage. Referenced again in Episode 4.
  • Any pair — the mission itself clears regardless, which is enough for Dynamic Duo.

Lost Balloon

Mobility 6+

A kid's balloon, a low-stakes day-shift call — famous only because Coupé's 72% roll here is the easiest place to farm Snake Eyes by reloading until she fails.

Send Coupé

Never Punch Up

  • Coupé — a 72% success roll. If she somehow fails it, that pain is the Snake Eyes achievement.
  • Invisigal — clean pickup, no drama.

Van Goh Opening

Intellect 7+ · Charisma 5+

A gallery opening that needs brains and schmoozing, not muscle. The scripted easy route to the Nailed It achievement — but only if Sonar is in his smart form.

  • Sonar in his intelligent form — beats every requirement solo: perfect dispatch, unlocks Nailed It.
  • Anyone else — the gallery crowd eats them alive.

Not a fight — a snack run with a community-stats twist. The least popular donut is set by what players worldwide pick least, so the "right" wrong answer can change over time.

Send Prism

  • Pick the least popular donut (the option under 33%) — unlocks Love Them From My Mouth To My Butt.
  • Any safe pick — the shift continues, no achievement.

Decisions that stick

There is no manual save. Each of these is permanent for the run.

Robert's Personal Crisis

Major

Mid-episode, Robert has to decide whether to let anyone in.

  • I need to talk to someonePick this
    Chosen hero +5, unlocks Heart to Heart

    That hero is Robert's confidant for the rest of the series.

  • I can handle this alone
    No relationship change

    Robert stays closed off, and Episode 5 runs a different storyline.

  • I'll talk to my boss
    Boss +3, gains a mentor

    Unlocks the boss's backstory in Episode 6.

Multi-Hero Mission Strategy

Major

Your first two-hero dispatch. Requirements are Combat 7+ and Mobility 6+.

  • Coupé + GolemPick this
    +2 to both heroes' stats, unlocks Perfect Pairing

    The strongest synergy in the game.

  • Flambae + Invisigal
    Success, faster resolution

    More property damage. Their bond gets referenced in Episode 4.

The moment that matters

A personal crisis makes Robert pick a confidant, and that hero stays his confidant through Episode 8.

Achievements here

7 of 9 can be missed for good.

Before you start

  • Rotate the roster in Episode 1 or you will open this episode with fatigued heroes.
  • The PR crisis needs Charisma 8. Prism is the only hero who clears it — do not save her for later.
  • Pair Coupé with Golem for the Perfect Pairing achievement and +2 to both.
